AGRICULTURE.
Phosphates and Potash —Phwpbate
of line is only one of the mineral fer
tilizers upon which plants delight to
feed, bnt which continual cropping,
without returns, will soon exhaust Pot
ash, upon which plants make large de
mands, is another. Grass and potatoes
may be called potash plants, because,
containing a large per cent of this min
eral. One hundr d parts of dry hay
will leave, when burned, nine per cent,
of ash, which the largest part is potash.
Successive crops of grass must, there
fore, exhaust the land of this, its lead
ing constituent, unless it is returned m
some shape. Just what mineral fertil
izers grass lands want in order to keep
them in good productive condition may
be learned from the following statement
of that eminent scientist. Rousingault:
"Ten thousand pounds of good meadow
hay contain 547 pomds of inorganic
(mineral) matter, of wbich 130 pounds
are potash, soda, 10 pounds; lime, 107;
magnesia, 43; oxide of iron, 5; silicica,
189; sulphuric acid, 16,phosphoric acid,
32; and chlorine. 15. While many of
these are found in almost inexhaustible
quantity in all tillable land, potash,
lime, sulphuric and phosphoric acids
diminish rapidly under cultivation, un
less returned in some way. It is a sui
cidal policy, therefore, to neglect the
application of these mineral fertilizers
on land severely cropped. Nor has any
fertilizer a more permanent effect on
such land than wood ashes—they con
taining all the mmeral constituents of
plant food—and when accompanied
with ammonia m some form make a per
fect fertilizers. It is an old saying that
"land never forgets ashes," and such
would seem to be the fact, when places
on which coal-kilns have been burned
have been known to have shown their
fertilizing effects for more than half a
century,
ifnoM results obtained with various
fertilizing substances,Professor Atwater
has drawn the following conclusions:
Corn needs littla nitrogen besides what
it can draw from natural source*, while
its yield is largely increased under the
influence of mineral fertilizers—the most
eflective being those in which the chief
component is phosphoric acid or potash
according to the soil and the season.
Potatoes respond uniformly to all the
ingredients, and they are less able than
corn to gather from natural sources.
The same appears to be true for turnips.
Not enough experiments ha/c been
made with other crops to justily conclu
sions concerning them. Practically, the
largest average yield for all crops is se
cured by the use of feitilizers containing
all the essential elements of plant food.
Used alone, nitrate of soda is rarely
useful, sulphate of lime frequently, mu
riate of potash very oltej, and the su
per-phosphates generally, Soils vary
in their capacity for conveying food to
crops, and careiul observation and ex
periment are necessary to determine
the needs of a particular soif.
Value of Bees.—The great value of
bees lo agriculture has hitherto been
entirely overlooked. A society of Sax
ony lias collected some very important
statistics upon this subject, which are
now made public. The society controls
seventeen thousaod hives, from each of
which ten thousand bees fly out daily.
This makes a total of 170,000,000 bees.
Jf it is supposed that each bte under
takes but lour journeys per day, and
that this takes place upon only one hun
dred doys ef the, year, then uu annual
total of 68,000,000,000 bee journeys is
obtained. At the lowest limit probable
the society considirs that filty flowers
are visited on each journey, and that
five out of the fifty are fertilized. This
gives a grand total oi 34!) 000,000 fertil
ized flowers \cr year, it the value ot
fertilizing twenty thotiaund blossoms be
one cent, then a value ot $170,000 is re
presented by the work done by the bees
of this society,or a benefit to agriculture
by each hive of $10 per annum.
Cattle and sheep should always have
plenty of shade in the pasture. They
liae, when they have eaten enough, to
lie down in a cool shadT and take their
comfort, and if they can do so they will
thrive much better. A few shone trees
for tins purpose will pay well for any
drain they may make on the fertility of
the soil. If ihere are no trees it will
pay to erect a cheap shed, even thougn
it te hut a rude structure of lour posts
set m the ground and a root covered
with brush wood or pine limbs. It
should be open to the north always,and
may be open on all sides if more con
venient. The t fleet of a blazing sun on
a cow’s baik when lying down seems to
be more marked than while she is teed-
ing, and cannot fail to make the animal
feverish, and thus injure both the
flavor of the milk and its keeping quali
ties.
Plants,—Judicious c re of the health
of plants will paomote your own. Mil
dewed leaves, sodden oil, mouldy
crocks will generate disease in your
plants and yourself. In all manipula-
t'ons of leal and soil, avoid touching
eye. lip, nostril,or any abraded portions
of the skin till the hands have been
thoroughly c caused. Before bouquets
are brought to the dining-table they
should for a moment be entirely immer
sed in water, and never be so placed as
to project over articles of food. Subtle
germs of vegetation and insidious ova,
eggs of obnoxious animal life are always
present.
Window Ubnament. —A pretty and
easily-grown window plant may be-ob-
taiued in the following manner: Soak a
round piece of coarse sponge in warm
water until it is thoroughly expanded.
Alter squeezing it about dry, plaoa in
the openings millet, red clover and bar
ley-grass seeds, rice and oats. Hang
the sponge in a window where the sun
shines a part of the day, and sprinkle it
lightly with water evejy morning for a
week. Soon tender leaves will shoot
out, ana, growing rapidly, wifi form a
foim a drooping msss of living green.
If regularly spiinhled, it will later be
dotted with the blossoms of the clover.*
O. M. Tin kham, Secretary of the Yer-
mont Dairymen’s Association, has de
vised some improvements in packing
butter. Instead of lining his packing-
boxes with muslin he uses a certain
kind of biown paper, which is odorless
aid tasteless, and costs very little. He
also lines his cases throughout with a
layer ot felting half an inch th ck. Thi-,
it is alleged, keeps out the heat most
effectually.
Hauling out Manuhb.—Wnile the
ground is hard or covered with snow,
the manure heaps can be hauled to the
fields with the least trouble. Those
who have j rctlteG by our hints for the
past lew months, will have the manure
w good condition lor hauling out now;
others will have it lying around loose
and unworked,and consequently useless
for some time yet.
DOMESTIC.
Fumigatino Pastils.—For the pur
pose of deodorizing a room lu which
there is an offensive smell common cof
fee berries and even rags and brown
paper, if properly burned, will serve
admirably. The smoke from these sub
stances not only neutralizes the odors
bnt ready acts as a disinfectant to a
slight extent. In burning coffee, paper
or rags for this purpose care must be
taEen to prevent them from burning too
freely. If they turn with a free, bright
flame the proper effect will not be pro
duced. They should be a'lowed to
smoulder quietly, and they do this best
when they are thrown ou hot coals or a
hot shovel and set on fire. An excel
lent substitute for pastils is heavy brojrn
paper wfiich has been dipped m a solu
tion of nitre and then diied. This
burns fraaly without flame, and if it be
dipped in a solution of benzoin, the
odor is very pleasant. The best thing,
however, is pastils. They are easily
made as follows: 1. Paris Formula;
Benzoin, twe ounces; balsam of tola
and yellow sandal wood, of each four
drachms; nitre, two drachms; lablanum,
two drachms; charcoal, six ounces.
Reduce to powder, mix thoroughly and
make into a stiff paste with gum traga-
eanth. Form into small cones and dry
them in the air. 2. Formula of Henry
and Guibourt. Powdered benzoin, six
teen parts; balsam of tolu and powdered
sandal wood, each four parts; charcjal
powder, forty-eight parts; powdered
tragacanth and labdanum, each one
part, powdered nitre and gum arabic,
each two parts; make into a paste with
twelve parts cinnamon water, form into
canes and dry.
Gone Never to Keturn.
Gard Ntic. AlE.—Mr. Daniel Gray, a
prominent lumber merchant writes that
his wife had severe rheumatic pains; so se
vere as to render her unable to sleep.
From the first application of the famous
German Remedy, 5t. Jacob’s Oil, she ex
perienced unspeakable reliei’, and in two
hours the pain had eutirely gone.
Cheap Gravies —After frying fat
pork, leave two tablespoonfuls drippings
in the spider, stir smooth in this a large
spoonful of flour, with salt and pepper.
.Place over a brisk fire, and add a pint
of milk; stir constantly until it boils.
Melt a large spoonful of butter in a hot
spider; watch closely until browned,
not burned; then pepper it and turn in
a bowlful of milk, btir in a few spoon
fuls of milk and sufficient flour to make
the desired consistency, not forgetting
to add salt, as it is much less liable to
remain in lumps. When the milk boils
add to it the batter, and stir until it
bubbles. Cut a cupful of codfish into
small pieces; place in the spider, cover
with cd 1 water, and set on the stove.
When the water beginst to boil, turn it
all c ff, and add a bowl of rich milk; then
proceed in the same way as in the sec
ond recipe, excepting the salt, as the
fish will furnish enongh of that. When
turned into a bowl add a generous
piece of batter.
The Oldcut Drujiglit.
Being one of the eldest druggists iu this
city (although having retired from busi
ness), I wish to say a good word about
Hunt’s Remedy. A number of years ago
I was troubled with my kidneys. The idea
of a druggist, however, resorting to the use
of a “patent medicine" was a little humili
ating, but when I came to consider how
many people had been benetitted by the use
of Hunt’s Remedy, I unhesitatingly began
using it; and after having fully tested its
virtues I can say, as many of my customers
have said to me, “ft is the best medicine
for kidney and liver complaint ever com
pounded.”
1 have yet to learn of a single instance
where it has failed to benefit and give
satisfaction, in fact it is the best I ever sold.
I would say to all who are troubled with
kidney and liver complaint, give Hunt’s
Remedy a trial and you will say as I do, it
is tlie best known remedy, and the best is
the cheapest every time. Yours truly,
Edward Allen.

Panel Pictures —Floral panels are
much used for room decoration, some
times smipended from mirrors, or pic
tures, from a height, or standing like
armorial shields at either side of a door
or window. A pretty panel picture
made with a trifling outlay, can be pro
duced by taking a common slate. First
paint in the background either some
neutral tint or one shaded in color;
those from dark brown to the lightest
tint of that color aro pretty amt effect
ive, using bnrut umber anil white. Be
careful to shade it as gradually and
evenly as possible. Flowers are the
prettiest designs for panel pictures, a
particular pretty one being composed
of wheat heads, field daisies and wild
roses. Poppies, wheat and blue corn
flowers make another equally handsome,
or golden rod and purple chrysanthe
mums make a bright and eff.otive pic
ture; apple blossoms ou one and pan
sies on another also make good com
panion pictures. The frames may be
painted in some neutral tint or contrast
ing color, or else simply gilded with
liquid gold paint.

An Excellent House-Plant.—Chi
nese primrose is one of the bist bloom
ing plants we can get for wmter flowei-
ing, both bingle and double varieties.
They require when growing plenty of
moisture at the roots and shaded irom
the duect rays of the sun. When wa
tering, however, do not allow much
water to fall on the leaves, as it is apt
to cause them to rot. A soil suitable
for this plant is sandy loam and a good
mixture of leaf mould and thoroughly
rotted manure. Do not put into too
large pots, as the soil is apt to sour be
fore the roots pass thiough it sufficiently
to use up the moisture.

HUMOROUS.
A woman who had been swinging in
a hammock in a yard, had no sooner
vacated it in answer to a call from the
house, than a ragged old tramp who
had been loaning over the fence walked
inside and coolly planted himself in the
hammock for a siesta. In about five
micu'es the woman reappeared, and
seeing at a glance how matters stood,
she brought out a sharp knife, walked
straight up to the fellow, and before he
could chuckle twice she cut the head
rope. He came down on his head with
a thump, toppled over at full length,
and slowly scrambled up and walked
off. Not a word was said until he was
outside the gate. Then ho turned and
called out:

want the most sentimental songs about
unrequited love and blighted hearts

Flush Draped Easels.—It is now
the mode in Faris—and fo’lowed in
other cities—to drape easels, mirrors
and other accessories to be feund in
the fashionably furnished drawing
room with plush. The easel is covered
with peacock blue, ruby, gold, blue or
apple green plush—or any color that
contrasts or blends with the room fur
nishings—and ornamented with em
broidery and fringe. The cord which
holds the draper and the tassels must
be of the same color. Small easels,
intended for holding a photo or plaqne,
are done in this way: Take a long strip
or scarf of plush, knot it round the
upright bar close under the erois-piece,
carry it across this bar in front and
make another slip-knot above the cross
piece, letting this piece over the sur
face lie iu easy folds; iu this way one
long end will fall on the one side just
below the picture ledge; the other long
end at the opposite side of the easel
ends, just above the ledge. Stiffuess
must be avoided iu these draperies.
The cords may be arranged to taste,

A method of bleaching cotton yarn
has lately been introduced in France,
the advantage of which is that uniform
ity is secured, and the article contiuues
beautifully white in the warehouse,
whether iu skeins or textures. The
plan is to let 220 pounds of cotton yarn
be bucked for eight hours in a soda lye
composed of six and one-half pounds of
crystillized soda and two and one-fourth
pouuds of slaked lime. After being
steeped iu the bucking caldron and
washed, the yarn is put into solution of
chloride of lime, and, remaining there
some two hoars, goes direct thence to
the diluted sulphuric acid, in which it
remains for twenty minutes. Such a
quantity of yarn requires eleven pounds
of powdered chloride of lime, and one
and one-sixth part of solphnnc acid.
After the bleaching, the yarn is careful
ly washed in flowing water, and then
put once or twice into a soap bath con
taining two and one-filth pounds of palm
oil for every 220 pounds of the yarn.
By this means, the cotton is freed from
the adhering acid, and can then be
sized—warp yarn with thirteen and
one fifth pounds, and wool yarn with
four and two-fifih pounds of statch for
every 220 pounds, with the addition of
some acid-proof ultramarine.
