It is not so valuable a crop as parsnips, carrot* or b'^ets, so far as its feeding value is con cerned, but it can tie produced at leas cost than the others. Beets, canots and parsnips should go in early, in or der to get a good start in growth, but we have the advantage of being able to defer the putting in of turnip seed tili July, after the new crop of seed is rea dy, ana cultivation is carried on during a period when no other crops are being seeded. Considering the cost of pro duction, the turnip crop should be a special one on every farai. They keep well during winter, and not only serve an excellent purpose when sliced and fed in the law state, but can also be cooked and mixed with other food. Not only are the roots valuable, but the tops also—there is no part waited. By weignt they produce heavily, and are not defi cient in bulk when compared with many other mops. The most essential feature connected with the cultivation of turnips is to make the seed bed fine. The seeds are very small,and must not be deeply cov ered, and no lumps or other obstruc tions should be tolerated on the loca tion intended for them. In procuring seed get that which has matured this season, and use it liberally,as this plant is often attacked by the turnip fly, which is very destructive. Turnips may be sown broadcast on ground that has been cultivated and kept clear and free from grass and wteds the previous ye»r;”but they should never follow com, experi ence having demonstrated that such re lation does not result well. The seed may be sown in drills—the drills to bo of such distance apart as serves best for either the hoe or the cnl tivator. When they arc high enough to thin out, an oidinury hoe will cut away all that are not desired, leaving the most vigorous plants; and hand picking is sometimes necessary to thin out the siouls that are left During all stages of growth the crop should be kept free from intrusion oi weeds ana grass, as turnips are sometimes over taken ty drought, during which time it is absolutely essential not only to keep down weeus but also to keep the soil loose by irequent cultivation. The best lertilizer lor turnips is su perphosphate; but the addition of a proportion el guano and potash in some shape will he benehOiul. Above all, however, there is nothing better foi them than a liberal application oigood, Une, well-lotted stable manure, espe daily if it has betu broadcasted and well worked in wnh (he hanow before drilling in the seed. The position tnat the ‘‘coming cow” is to oe one well auaph d for botn bet f and milk production we be believe to be correct, if it be not pushed too far. There is an increasing number of dairy farmers who uud it best to give almost exclusive attention to the quantity and quality ot 1 he milk given by their cows, caring liitie about t.ieir merits as beef makers, bo there are beet producing farmers who properly couut it a disad vantage it a cow gives a large How of mnk. This is true on the Western plains. It is true ol such lariners as J. D. Gillette, who only asks for a cow that snail produce and feed a call each year. Bain these classes form but a minority ot cattle raisers. The most succesotul dairymen and the producers of the very Quest beef animals may be fouud in these classts,but the great ma jority ot cows and ot steers for beef ale and long will continue to tie, raised by men wno cannot afiord to ignore either the milk-giving or tue meat producing quality. Tor such men the popular breed must be one with deserved claims io good quality in both directions. It is quite possible that several breeds may, in the tuture be claimants for highest merit ior this double purpose, but the couise of breeding uow adopted by the special friends of most leading bleeds is calculated to develop one ot these qualities at the expense of the other. The shorthorn has never been surpassed, if equaled, as a ‘‘general purpose cow.” Ought she to lo^e all leputat.on as a dairy uow? The Plow.—it Will ou found that a two-nurse ste» 1 plow that cuts a width of twice the distance of a one-horse plow, breaking three acres a day to the one acre of the one-horse plow, saves the farmer the labor ot two men each day the plow is at wurk. A good culti vator, that plows Irom seven to eight acres a day, dees the work of two sin gle plows, and saves tUe labor of one hand every day it is in use. Tne econ omy and perfection ol the mower,reaper and horse-rake are too well known to require comment. Thorough prevention of the mouldy smell of stoied corn or other cereals de pends almost absolutely upon thorough ventilatioa. And, by the way, a bad odor anywhere in homes, cilices, stores, is a hint from Nature that something is wrong which requires prompt and thor ough attention. All this business ot applying disinfectants and so-called antiseptics do more harm than good for the most part They simply mask poisons, to put the matter strongly, leaving the prime cause as fertile of disease, producing germs as before. Mixid husbandry is theouiy sure way to success m farming. Repeated crop ping with a single cereal will bring a waste of tue plant-food elements in the soil that will, >n the end, so reduce the yield as to entail certain loss upon the laud c icr. Tins fact will do more toward forcing the Dalrymples to cut up and dispose of their immense laud areas than anything elae, though they may not now see it in that light. Am authority on silk culture Buys that most oi the failures result irom undue haste to realize. The inullnury leaf,he hays, is slow to ripen. Until the tree is five years old its leaves do not contain, either in quantity or quality, sufficient silk-forming material lor profitable re sults. He is convinced that it would be belter for the health of the tree and the silkworms if not a leaf wore stripped until its tenth year. A cheap square box without b <ttom and oov rad ou the lop with mosquito netting, is the best pr tect.ou agaiust the bug-* that attack the squash and melon Vines; when placed over the hill see that the box tits uowu ou all sides so that ttie insects cannot creep under it A good horte power on a farm will each year save many times the interest on its cost in furnishing power to do a great many things, that would else have to be perioimeo by hand, such as saw ing wood, cutting teed, grinding gram, eto.; and with proper care it Mould be jnade to last for years. DOMESTIC. Glass Stadjino.—This is another branch of art that is very fascinating, and then the results are so admirable if done at all well, and when skillfuly ex ecuted the work is very beautifuly and wonderiully effective. The process is simple, requiring delicacy of touch and a taste for color blending to a marked degree. These dualities are not so very scarce, and when Jacking a little patience and close application will over come all such drawbacks. Spread over the glass to be worked upon gum water, and when it is dry lay it over the paper on which the design is sketched, and trace with a fine hair pencil all the out lines. The lights and shades are mere dots, lines and hatches, worked in after the style of engraving. Dip the tube- like pencil into the colors aud let them flow out upon the glass; have a care and touch the pencil to the glass; the lights and shades are produced in a variety of ways; one of the easiest, and especially to beginners, is to take a goose quill out it in the shape of a pen, without the slit; then carefully take out the lights by lines and little dots. This part of glass staining is really the most particular since so much of its beauty is dependent upon the shadings being artistically effected. After this process, the glass is ready for the kiln, on the bottom of which is quite a thick bed of slacked lime in a peifectly dry state, ou which the sheet of glass is laid. The heat must be very gradual or the glass will break, and when the colors are properly burned in, the fire may cool down, and when out the glass is remov ed and cleaned. The colors required lor staining glass are red lead and red enamel. Tnese mixed together will give the flesh tint required—one ounce of the lorrner and two ounces of the other well mixed with alcohol—black, dull and brilliant black, rich brown, tine red, green, yellow, blue, violet— any shade may be had by more or less flux, which is made ot borax, flint glass, white sand and pipe clay well mixed together. Soup wtth Poached Egos. — The Germantown Telegraph has this to of ten Posen some eggs—one for each person, and one over—in salted water, with a little vinegar, some pepper corns, and a few leaves of parsley in a shallow pan, just long enough to set the yelks slig itly; take out eacu egg with a slice, tu ush it elean, with a paste- brush, and cut it wild a round, fluted paste-cutter, about two inohe* lu diam eter, so as to get all the eggs in unitorm shape, and leaving neitUer too much nor too little white around tUem, Turn tue egg over carefully, blush it dean, uud lay it in the soup tureen, ready filled with boiling hot, clear jelly broth, ihe water iu which the eggs are poached should be kept at a boiling poiut, but never bod. Canaries should never be exposed to draughts of air in door or out, nor sUould they huug in the suu as a rule, if out of doors they require a warm, dry, sheltered, shady place. The only lood of flour given them should be crackers or dried bread. New or warm bread or biscuit are uot good for either a bird or a person to eat. If the birds are infested with mites cover the top of the cage with a piece ot white flannel at night, aud early iu the morning take it off uud snake over a hot stove. The mites, lustead of hiding about the old wires of ihe cage, will seek the cloth, aud may be captured. Fresh Pineapple —When properly prepared this is a delicious fruit for des sert, but as usually served, cut iu round slices, it is not. It should lie Carefully peeled, and all the ••eyes” taken out, iu tne morning of the day on winch it is to be served. Leave the topmost plume of green leaves, and set tue truit ou the dish in which it is to be served, Tnen dust it thickly with powdered sugar, aud let it staud uutil it is to be served. Tear it apart with a fork, holding the plume of green leaves with the leit bund, Tula mode of serv iiiK iusmes the leteutlou of the rich juiies. Very Palatable.—Nice little tea cakts, to be baked iu muffiu rings, are made of one cup of sugar, two eggs, oue cup and a half of milk, one heaping teaspoon of baking powder, a piece of butter the size of au egg, and flour enough to make a stiff batter. Iu this batter stir a pint bowllul of fruit— vurrants are nice; fresh berries in their season, aud even canned ones, with the juice drained off. Serve whde warm, uud they are a dainty addition to the t >a table. HUMOROUS. He was a Buffalo man. The school teacher had been talking about finance to her scholars, and young John came home to ask: “Father, is there such a thing as a call loan?” “Yes, of course.” “Well, what is it?" “Why, old Swipes, the doctor, comes bustling in some afternoon—note tc meet—needs just fifty more—hand it back next day—and I’m fool enongh to lend It. That’s the loan part of it.” “Yes.” “I wait two weeks, need the money, and call at his office. He isn’t in. I call again, he is ont. I call forty or fifty times, always miss him. call to him on the street and he doesn’t hear, call him a dead-beat, and that ends it. There’s the call and there’s the loan, and here’s the idiot. That’s all." Boston Bloods. Mr. C. 8.

Her mother lias, in consequence, been oblig ed to iorbid her to ask for anything. The other day there was a dish of magnificent strawberries upon the table. Baby coveted them with longing eyes. She threw a supplicating glance at her mother and another at her father, bnt this characteristic mimicry was unsuc cessful. Baby was disconsolate. She uttered a deep sigh, and, leaning over to her father’s side, in a way to be well heard, she said: “Papa, tell mamma that I have not asked for any strawberries 1” Woman’s Friend.

A railroad cooipauy in Ohio has adopted a new system of time-tables. The hoars are numbered from one np to twenty-fonr, the latter being mid night. The other night one of the rail road officials went home an honr before midnight, and when his wife remonstra ted with him for coming in at such an unseemly hour, he stammered: “W-why, my dear (hie), its only twenty three o’clock.” Then she knew he was pretty far gone. To Steady ttie Nerves Is a task to the accomplishment of which nar cotics and sedatives are Inadequate. The effect they produce Is paralytic. They destroy sensa. tion without beneiltnng the nerves. Hostetler’s Stomach Bitters, ou the contrary, strengthens and soothes the nervous system. Overwork and mental anxiety weaken and relax it, and there Is no more reliable means of bracing it and restoring nerve quietude, nan by reinforcing digestion and promoting assimilation of the food —two effects always consequent upon the use ol the great siomachlc. Failing stieugtli is re- cuper .ted, a regular aablt of body restored, aud appetite Improved by the Riders.

Delicious French Piokles.—Here is a recipe ior French pickles; delicious; one colander of sliced green tomatoes, one quart sliced onions, oue colander ot pared aud sliced cucumbers, two hand fuls salt; Jet all stand twenty-four hours, then dram through a sieve; add one-half ounce of celery seed, one-half ounce ail-spice, oue teaspoon pepper, oue tablespoon of tumeric, oue pound brown sugar, two tablespoons mustard and oue gall >n vinegar. Ink.—While the stains are still wet upon the carpet, sponge them with skim milk thoroughly. Tueu wash ont the milk with a clean sponge dipped again aud again iu clean, cold water. Exchange this presently for warm; then rob dry with a cloth. If the stain is upon any artioia ot clothing, or table or bed lint n, wash well in the milk, after ward iu water. Dry ink stains can be removed from wnite cloth by oxalic acid or lemon juice and salt. Pretty wall baskets can be mad by taking one of the rough straw hats so much worn at the seaside a year or two ago. Ii a flower or vine is net already embroidered ou it, add some such deco ration; then line the hat with muslin or silesia, finish the edge with a pleating oi ribbon, and lie a ribbon in a knot aud fasten to it ior a handle. The hat may be flattened by pressure, or by usmg stout linen thread for that purpose. “I am waiting,” said Mr. Credulous, “for that newsboy to come back with my change. 1 gave him a quarter for a two-cent paper nearly an hour ago. He ran away to get it changed.” “Well?” said his friend. “Well,” replied the old man, sadly, “I haint seen him cents.” “I should dollar,” replied his friend, and they went away to talk it over. And they talked it over the usual thing—ice cold and drawn from the wood. I would recommend Ely’s Cream Balm to any one having Catarrh or Catarrhal Asthma.
