AGRICULTURE,
Thb Tomato Plant.—The variations
which occur in seedling plants of onr
cultivated varieties of vegetables is
the sabj^ot of a recent bolletfh from
the Neir York agricultural experiment
station.
In tomato seedlings joung plants fre
quently show three and even four seed
leaves instead of the normal two. The
tomato presents numerous variations in
its growth. The species to which onr
garden varieties are referred are suffi
ciently distinct to be classed as separate
species or sub-species.
Ur. Sturtevant, in the bulletin under
consideration, notes the variations in the
fruit upon the same plant and upon the
same cluster.
Among other variations in the tomato
iruit is noted that of shape. It is only
within recent years that the tomato has
become smooth. Formerly it was rib
bed and in shape quite distorted. One
of the most marked variations obtained
by culture seems to have been in the
diminution of the seed, and variations
are also to be noted between varieties in
the manner in which the seeds are ar
ranged, an also in the thickening of the
core, and the size of the various
cells and partitions which contain the
seed.
There appears also to be considerable
variation in the vitality of seeds as be
tween different varieties as there cer
tainly is between the strength of the
young plants. But Dr. Sturtevant has
not yet collected sufficient data to as
sign this variability to other than acci
dental causes. It is an interesting sub
ject of inquiry whether the tendency to
seedlessness and quality be not correla
ted, and also whether there be not a
correlation between the vitality of seed
and the quality, as also between the vi
gor of the plant and quality,
The Culture of Wheat.—Some
twelve to fifteen years ago an impression
prevailed—indeed the results seemed to
establish the fact—that wheat culture in
Pennsylvania, like fruit-culture, had
run out, and farmers’ clubs and agricul
tural papers went full tilt to discussing
the reason of it. But subsequently both
took a turn, and we should like to know
to-day if any one aares to say that both
wheat and fruit canuot be raised as suc
cessfully there as in almost any other
State. Some said at first (hat it would
last only a little while—now and then
we may get along well enough, but
who cau say how long it will last, or in
case of failure should come again what
we are to do about it. This was anti
cipating an evil which there was no
reason to believe would soon occur
again, and ns it lias not yet returned we
hear ho more about it. The grumblers
are quiet; they take with thanks, we
hope, all they receive, and may en
tertain the best expectation for the fu
ture.
The greatsst enemy of the wheat crop
it too much water. It may be said that
the wheat-root is more susceptible to
injury from too much water than many
ol us believe. To be sure there is a
general impression that an overdose of
water is bad, but tl)e full force of the
impress!) n is seldom felt as it deserves
to be. Water lying around roots does
not always kill the wheat plant, but
many of the roots are injured, and the
few that are left are not able to do do
the work that all were intended to take
part in doing. If - ny one will dig up a
wheat plant in spimg which has stood
all winter in a wet place, he will see ex
actly how this is. Only living roots
clo^e to tho suiface and below tnis may
be injured,
Seedino WiTH Clover.—“To got a
good kteding 01 clover is no easy task,”
many a farmer will say, and there is
truth m the statement, yet it makes
very muo-T difference how one goes to
work to do it sud when he does it. We
have known farmers to sow clover early
in spring on rye or wheat land when
there was n light covering of snow on
the ground and have good success w ith
it,but we prefer to wait until the ground
is settled, then sow six quarts of clover
to four quarts of timothy to the acre.
Some find it advantageous to lightly
harrow the ground after sowing the
s9 >d, aid then roll it with a heavy rol-
ijr. This, of couise, can onL be li h -
ly done wl en the ground is dry and set
tled. This being uoue, sow 100 pounds
of plaster to the acre. Clover should
not be covered deep;it is not necessary.
If clover and timothy are to be sown
after cats it should not be done until
the oats are harrowed in for the last
time.
Stable manure undoubtedly answers
the demands of the soil in truit culture
better than any annual application of a
single special fertilizer, bnt still it
should not be forgotten that aa occa
sional application of potash in some
form may be necessary. Muriate of
potasb is a good application now and
then.
The general failure of the apple crop,
a year ago, has greatly lessened tne
urmbers of the codling moth. We
may, therefore, hope for a full crop
of truit, tree from worms, the eommg
season.
In cutting out the blighted portion of
pear trees, the knife, saw or pruning
shears should be frequently rinsed
in carbolic acid, and water to prevent
the spread of tne disease to healthy
trees.
If any disease attacks a peach tree,
dig it np and put another iu its place.
In all probability it is a case of the
yellows, and the loss of a tree is a trifle
as compared with the danger of spread
ing the inlection.
A vouxa calf will begin to eat grain
or good bright hay at five or six months
old. A little scalded meal at this age is
better than all milk ration, as it is best
to accustom them to solid food as early
as possible.
It Is the belief of meny close observ
ers that the gestation of domestic ani-
is retarded by a severe winter,like
the last, and hastened by a warm win
ter, Borne reported facts this year tend
to confirm this theory.
By actual trial the past season one
hundred bushels of shelled corn shrank
to finely between December and the first
of May. It was put in a tight bln, and
the shrinkage was from evaporation—
not from rata or mice.
Fob asparagus chcoee a deep, light,
aandy loam, and work in plenty of fine
farmyard manure. It is preferable, if
as convenient, to plant in one long tow
on aide of the garden,' having the planta
about 18 inches spirt.
Good raw bone dust la estimated to

DOMESTIC.
Ioe Fudmno.—Pot one quart of milk
into a stewpan with a half-pound of
white sugar ar J a stick of vanilla; leave
it to boil ten uuautei. Mix tho yelks
of ten eggs with a gill of cream, pour in
the milk, then put it back again into
the stewpan and stir until it thickens,
but do not let it boil; strain it into a
basin, and leave it to cool. Take twelve
pounds of ice, pound it small, add six
pounds of fine salt; mix together quick
ly, cover the bottom of an Ice-pail (a
common pail will do), place the ioe-pot
in it, and build it around with the ioe
and salt. This done, pour the cream
into the pot, put on the cover, and never
cease turning until the cream becomes
thick; move it from the sides occasion
ally with the ioe-sooop, to prevent it
getting into hard lumps. Tne mould
to be used to set the pudding should be
put on ice to get quite cold. It Is then
filled with cream to the level, aud three
or four pieces of white paper wetted
with cold water are placed on it before
yon put on the cover, which ahould fit
very tight. The mold is then buried in
the same mixture of ice and salt used
for freezing the cream In the first in
stance, and Is left until wanted, tfhen
it is dipped m cold water, turned out on
a napkin and served. Dried fruits, cut
small, may be put in tho cream when
the mold is being filled.
Babies’ feet are objects of unlimited
admiration; the soft curves and outlines
and the perfect nails do not in the least
suggest the cramped and mlsiLappen
form they will take after t'.while, in all
human probability. Thoughtlessly and
a mistaken notion of economy cans a
the lack of beauty and the sense of dis
comfort about the feet of the half-grown
bey or girl. Children are frequently
made to wear shoes that they have out
grown, because they are not wern out
'•Best” shoes are almost too small when
they are pm chased, and as they are
only worn occasionally, the feet chance
and enlarge, and are injured by the ill-
fitting shoe. The nails should be cared
tor and looked after by the mother just
as conscientiously as the morals of the
child. Many an hour of acute pain to
the man or woman may be charged to
the neglect of the nails in childhood.
If the discovery is made that the shoe
is oppressing the foot and crowding the
nails, it would be better to remove the
shoe aud let the chile go without rather
than continue it., me. If there is dan
ger of the toenail pi easing down in the
flesh, it can be avoided by cutting a
scallop or point iu the centre of the nail.
This will certainly prevent ingrowing
nails.
How to Drive Flies Out of a Room,
—Observations made by M. R iflord, a
member of the Society d’Horticulture
at Limoges, show that a c istor-oil plant
having been placed iu a room infested
with Hies, they disappeared as by en
chantment. Wishing to find the cause,
he soon found under the castor-oil plant
a number of dead flies, and a large
number of bodies ha i remained cling
ing to the under surface of the leaves,
itr would, therefore, appear that the
leaves of the oastor-oil plant give out an
etsential oil, or some toxio prinoiple
which posseases very strong insecticide
qualities. Castor-oil plants are much
used in France as ornamental plants m
looms, as they rtsist very wrli variations
of atnu sphei e and temperature. As the
castor-oil plant is very much grown and
cultivated in ail gardens, the Journal
d’Agriculture points out that It would
be worth while to try decorations of the
haves to destroy the greeu flies and
other insects which iu summer are so
destructive to plants and fruit trees.
Anyhow, M Raflord’s observations
merit that trial should be made of the
properties of the castor-oil plant both
lor the destruetion of flies in dwellings
and of other troublesome insects.
Tomato Figs.—The following is the
method ot preserving tomatoes in Ber
muda, and thereby manufacturing a
sweet pieserve something like figs:
Take six pounds of sugar to one peek
(or 16 pounds! of the fruit, scald and
remove the skin of the fruit, iu the
usual way, cook them over a fire, their
own juice beiug sufficient without the
addition of water, until the sugar pene
trates and they are clarified; they are
then taken out, spread on dishes, flat
ten td and dried in the sun. A small
quantity of the sirup should be occasion
ally sprinkled over them while drying,
after which pack them down m boxes,
treating each layer with powdered su
gar The sirup is afterward couoentra-
ted aud bottled for use. They keep
from year to year and retain their flavor
surprisingly, which is nearly that of the
best quality of tresh figs. The pear-
shaped or single tomatoes answer the
purpose best Ordinary brown sugar
may be used, a large portion of which
is retained iu the Birun.
Milkweed Pods. —Perhaps some per
sons may not know what very pretty
additions may be made to dned grasses,
bunches of ferns, and autumn leaves,
by the milkweed teeds. Pick tin m
when the seeds are quite ripe, and the
pods begin tc dry. Open the pods and
pick the seeds out with the downy sub
stance adhering to them. Take the
seeds oil’ aud pass the down through
the lips (this is the only way 1 know of
to get them a yery little moist), hold
ing fust the seed end. Have a fine wire
and a piece of white thread tied to the
eud of it. Lay the prepared down
against the wire and wind the thread
around it to keep it in place. Continue
this until you have a sort of fez, or full
blown flower. You must take each seed
separately, and they must be plate l
very close together on the wire, and be
wound tight with the thread, The
downy substance will blow out very
fluffy, «ud very white, and is really
beau ti l til.
A handsome tidy is made of linen
s-ina, with the ends iringed, or with
drawn work at each end, or it m ay have
this work and the friuge at the bottom
mly. Then with black etching silk
work some pretty figures in the centre.
A vine-like border is a great addition.
An agreeable and appetizing dish i*
made by cooking asparagus and pets
together. Cut tender stalks of aspara
gus in small pieces (both ieg<ta 1« a
require the same length of time to ct. ok)
season with cream, pepper and salt, t r
in place of cream use milk with a lump
of butter melted in it.
Horse radish root boded in salt and
water, wi h a little vinegar, is good to
send to the table with r.iast meat of any
kind; cut it in thin slice i and use’ It as
a garnish,
A charming wny to flavor costards is
to beat fruit jelly with the whites of the
eggs; red raspberry jelly and quince
jelly ore especially nice lor this.

How He Doubled HU Trade.
Mr. Beoj. W. Patton, pharmacist,Globe
Village, Mass., says that the miraculous
pain cure, St. Jacobs Oil, has greatly help
ed his other business, and the sales of the
remedy have doubled in one month. He
keeps a large supply on hand. Officers ot
the Army and Navy pronounce St. Jacobs
Oil, to be the greatest pain-cure of the age.
Probably a leoturer: "NV hat a learned
man Mr. A. is!” exclaimed Mrs. B.;
"he talks so interestingly on everything

"fl’ml” ejaculated Mrs. 0., "you

about as of any o Jiers. He is what you
may really call a learned man.”
No Rest Day or Night.
In the fall of 1876 my sufferings were ter
rible. I was swollen to such proportion that
I feared my limbs would burst. I had the
best medical talent obtainable, and at the
worst stage of my illness, when my husband
and many friends bad given me up to die,
the late Dr. John Woodbury made a thorough
examination of my watei, and pronounced
my case acute kidney disease, liordering on
Bright’s disease,and accompanied by gravel,
and recommended the immediate use of
Hunt’s Remedy. At this time I was suffer
ing most terrible pain in my back, limbs
and bead, and could iindnorestday or night
for weeks, and I was growing weaker daily
until this kind physician ordered me to take
Hunt’s Remedy. Before taking half of one
bottle I commenced to improve, and after
taking six bottles was entirely cured. This
was nearly eight years ago, ami I have had
no return of the disease. I have recom
mended Hunt’s Remedy to others in similar
cases, and it has never failed to cure. I have
also used it for sick headache, and found id
it a sure relief. I think it the best medicine
made, and cheerfully recommed it to all.
