AGRIGUIrTURE,
How a Pawukk n Madk.—In Great
Britain, Holland, and in some of the
beet dairy districts in this country, land
u selected for a pasture as it is lor any
particular crop. Regard is paid to its
adaptability to produce a large amount
of fine rich grasses. The soil or sod is
prepared to receive the seed, which is
selected with special reference to the
production of grass to be eaten wbile it
is in its green state. Great pains are
taken to lenaer the soil as productive as
possible. Water is supplied or drained
off as the wants of tne Ixnd require.
Weeds and bushes are exterminated or
kept in subjection. Fertilizers are ap
plied as they are to laud devoted to
cultivated crops. Loose soils are ren
dered more compact by the use of the
roller, and very heavy soils are loosened
by the employment of the harrow or
scarifier. Most farmers in this country,
ho*ever, neglect ail tnese things. Laud
is not selected for a pasture. If it is
too loeky, broken, or aitUcuit to culti
vate; it it is too wet or ury to produce
good crops of corn, grain potatoes or
roots, it is devoted to pasturage. Laud
is selected tor oiher puip ses; but the
i&nd lot pasturage is what was rejected
as unsuitcd for any other use. ttome-
times a piece ot land originally produc
tive, is uevoted to pasture purposes. If
this is the case it is generally alter it
"has been cropped to death.” It is
first planted to corn lor several years,
then sown to giain for a period equally
long.and then laid down to grass suited
for mowing put poses. Alter the crop
ol grass becomes so ii 0 ln that it scaice*
ly pays lor the woik of cultuig, the
farmer concludes that the only tmug
he can do with the laud is to devote it
to supporting stock, unring the summer
when he expects to make the most out
Ot them. ihere aie no evidences if
beneficent design in most ot the pas
tures in this country. They are the’
work ol chance or neglect,
Endive is one ot the best salads for
fall uno winter use. Sow tor an early
spring about the middle of April. As it
is used mostly in the fall months tb
main sowings are made in June and
July, irom which plantations are form
ed, at oi e toot each way, in August and
September It lequnes no special soil
or manure, and alter planting is kept
clear of weeds until the plant has at
tained its full size, when the process of
blanching begins. This is effected by
the gathering up the leaves and tying
tbem by their tips m a conical form
with bass matting. This excludes the
light and air from the inner leaves,
which, In couise of irom three to six
weeks, according to the temperature at
the time, become blanched. Another
and simpler method consists m covering
up the plants as tney grow with slats or
boaids, which serve the same purpose
by excluding the light as the tying up.
The wonderful Lem tits of drain tiling
aie becoming more apparent duny. Mr.
James Gibson, of Franklin township,
has reclaimed a field of sixty acres by
tiling. This piece of land was little
lietter than a swamp. Ouly here and
there were there patches of ground that
could be cultivated in the dryest ol
weather. £y laying a few hundred rods
of tiling, be is enabled to cultivate
nearly the whole field. In addition
lb** land baa Ouan ill
value about $10 per acre. The value
and benefits of tiling are only beginning
V) be lully understood. Thousands ol
acres in Hiory com. ty will be speedily
reclaimed by underdraining, which win
make it one of the richest stock counties
in the State.
Pine Apple Glach.—Peel the fruit,
and then with a small pointed knife out
out the eyes; then shoe the fruit cross
wise and about halt an inch thick; put
these as sliced into a bright copper pre
serving basin, two-thirds full of cold
water; place on the fire aud slowly boil
tbem until they are so tender that they
can be easily punctured with a skewer;
then take them out with a perforated
skimmer aud throw them into a tub of
cold water; when all are done take them
from the water and lay them in layers
upon hair sieves to drain. After which
pack in layers in earthen tureeas; fill
tne tureens about two-thuds full of the
blanched fruit aud cover them wit!'
boiling hot sirup. Lay a plate ou top
01 the fruit in each tureen in order to
keep it submeiged: set aside till next
day. The next day having come, take
eacu turewn in rotation, pour the con
tents, sirup aud fruit into a preserving
kettle; place ou the fire aud make scald
ing hot, and reiurn it to the tureen; set
aside again till next day, repeat this
process for five successive days or until
me fruit has become lu Ir saturated
with sugar; then make all hot and drain
eff the sirup from tne trim; return me
fruit to tbe tureens, and boil sirup to
the consistency ol molasses and pour it
boning hot ever the iru.t, ami when
cold cover it, it is now preserved and
ready for service at any time. Keep it
in a cool, dry o bar. Wneu you wish
to glace it pour it into a pan, make hot
and urain off the sirup through a coarse
sieve Hull a few pounds ol iresh, sim
ple sirup to the string, remove from the
are ana mt stand lor five minutes; then
with a small wooden spatuia rub some
ot the sugar against the side of the pan
in order 10 cause a slight granulation,
scrape this down ana stir it into the
hody ol the sirup, and then immediately
throw into it five or six pieces at a time
ot the drained fruit; cover it with the
sirup aud at once nfa i« eut with a large
two-pronged lork, aud lay each piece,
so as nut to touon each other, upou wire
drainers; in twenty minutes tney will

then he packed, nut more than two or
tnree iaj era, in suitable boxes, with a
sheet ol uiout paper between eaOU layer.
Many persons simply warm and drain
me pieserved fruit, then spread it out
ou boards until it is sufficiently dry to
han> le. then paca it in boxes for the
mmket.
The green covering or so called moss
which accumulates ou plant pots is al
ways injurious to the plant. ‘‘A bright
pot makes a healthy plant,” is the gar
dener’s rule. Th’s green covering is an
alga, a p ant closely related to tne sea
weed. It acts much in the same way
as glazing would act in stopping tlu-
pores ol the pot and allowing no circu
lation of air. It should be scrubbed bfi
as often as it »(pears with sand and wa
ter.
The difference in sweetness of maple
sap from trees in the same neighborhood
auggesis the query whether varieties
excelling in sweet ess may not be estab
lished by careful selection of seed irom
the best. It is not, however, certain
that the amount of sweetness does not
depend mainly on location and richness
of the suil. The sweetest maple sap
oomes from tries on a ridge, perhaps
because the ground is less moist and
less sap is furnished.
Gsapevine insects are numerous. As
soon as the young shoots start a small
caterpillar will ofteu be found rolled uo
in the young leaves, and should be re
moved. As soon as the vine is in flow
er the rosebugs will attack the blossoms.
This insect can be kept in subjection
only by catching and killing it lu eany
morning th<-y are toipid and may be
shaken from the vines. Catch them in i
pan holding a little water upon which
there floats a film of kerosene.
As a cement for tree wounds Dr. Has
kins uses the tollowmg,which is consid
ered well adapted to large wounds: Boil
a quart ot pine tar slowly for 3 hours,
then and lour ounces of tallow aud «>ue
of beeswax, and stir well, Then re
move from the Are. aud as the mixture
thickens by oooiiug, st.r in a pound of
sifted clay, and keep stirring till cold.
In summer this cement is just soli
enough to spread w ith a knife.
A cultivated crop thrives in propor
tion to tne effectiveness of the cultiva
tion. To suppose that the killing ol
weeds is tie only purpose of the cult.-
Vatiug ot a crop is a mistake. A pre
mium crop of potatoes was hoed every
day in the season until the crop was
gathered. Burring of the soil is equiv
alent to fertilization, and ss long as
there is room to pass between the rows
a weekly working of the soil—-the surface
only—will be beneficial.
It is estimated, after a number of ex
haustive tests, that corn will shrink,
from the time it is husked from the
field or shock in the autumn and stored
in well-protected cubs, from twenty to
thirty per cent, in spring. Thesonndest
and beet corn shrinks the least, or 20
per cent. So that forty cents a bushel
in the fall is as good to the seller as fifty
cents in the spring.
Tee advantage of grinding the cob
and com together is not altogether in
the nutriment of the cob, but because
the cob, being a coarser and a spongy
material, gives bulk, and divides and
separates the fine meal, so as to allow a
free circulation of the gastric juice
£hnugh the mass in the stomach.

Cheuby Paste.—To make this de-
lighuui coniiotiun, select some of the
best and ripest cherries; extract both
the stalks aud stone-i; put them into a
copper preserving pan, always remem
bering the rule laid down in the articles
ou strawberries—never under auy oir-
cumstanoes to use any tin in connection
with lod fruits. Now mash the pulp;
place the pan over the fire aud boil
until the fruit is soft; keep stirring the
pulp coustHmly while it is over the fire,
miss aud press through a hair sieve.
For every pound of fruit add three-
quarters of a pound of best finely pul
verized sugar. Place again over the
vnfcto c» vv<j fiki'xw? Vrvifc
now. Allow to simmer only, and keep
constantly in motion by stirring until
tbe pulp is reduced to the consistency
of a thick marmalade. Now remove
from the tire, and spread the fruit ou
sneets of paper. P.aco in the hot closet
to dry. Afier the fruit has become
thoroughly dried, it may be formed into
knots or rings aud cut up into various
sUapes, piaiu or fanciful, and then crys
tallized. Jelly is a very uunsnal form
iu wnich to serve the cherry, but it will
be found to be very dii.oious. You
can not make a perfect jelfy of cherry
alone. By adding 25 per cent, of cur
rants to the cherry tiie thing can be
done, and iu such a manner as only
heightens the genuiue cherry flavor.
