AGRICULTURE.
A Good Corn Crnp.—Indian corn is
the great cereal crop of the northern
United States, and it is important to
know what are the condition most favor
able for its growtb. The extensive ex
periments made under the direction of
Professor Atwater, teach us, already,
some lessons as to the best conditions
tor the growth of the corn plant. It is
evident that the plant must have an
abundance of food, and that this food
must be in the most acceptable form.
We do not know to a certainty how
much of any one element of food it the
proper amount and yet as we fail to dis
cover the best for them all to be pre
sented to the plant. But we do know
some general principles, and should ap
ply them as far as possible to the cul
ture of the crop, it is known that corn
lias a semi-tropical nature—it loves the
warm months—and therefore its season
of growth must be limited. “About
corn-planting time” is when the settled
weather comes,and the soil is beginning
to warm np with the heat of long days
aud a high sun. W.th the short season
before it the grain shonld be in the soil
just as soon as it will grow vigorously.
The good com ground is then one that
is warm early. This will depend some
what upon the season, and very largely
upon location and the soil. Passing
season and location beyond control, the
soil shonld be made as warm as it can
be by thorough underdraining, and the
best of tillage. While it is very impor
tant to have the soil deep, warm, moist
and mellow, that is not all—it must be
rich. The soil is not simply the place
where the grains of corn are planted
that they may grow—a mere inactive
seed bed —but the substance from which
the young corn plants must derive a
large part of their food, from the time
they germinate until the corn is ripe in
the ear. If this food is present and in
an available form, there is good reason
to hope for a tine crop, Suoh a soil is
“a good com ground ” This deliuitiou
does not include any previous crop; it
does not say a turned sod is the ground
lor corn, in muny systems of crop ro
tation it may follow best after grass,and
do better than am of the other crops
in the rotatiou, but thousands of ex
periments sho**’ that corn follows ooru
wiih success, provided you have the
essential elements of food present and
the condition right lor their being used
at once.
A writer says; “There is scarcely a
farmer who does not plant a larger
acreage than he can profitably attend to
and the result is that three acres hard
ly cron out so much as one ought to,
and we hear of twenty, thiity or forty
bushels of com to the aero where it
ought to be sixty to one hundred bush
els, aud it the time spent on twenty
acres was spent on ten, and the manure
dribbled on twenty were judiciously
used ou the ten, there would be ten
acres to put in grass, set to enriching it
self and at the same time making splen
did pasturage for a half score of year
lings, besides realizing fully as much
corn as in the old-style way, and in
stead of plowing the corn only two or
three times we had better plow it six
times. Now 1 know whereof 1 speak.
During a drought several years ago a
certain farmer bade his boys plow the
corn seven times that Hummer,and while
the neighbors’ cribs were very lean that
year his crop was the largest over gath
ered on that farm.’,’
Clouted cream is made by heating
the milk to 180 degrees, and then set
ting it in the usual way for the cream
to rise. As is well known, the cream
comes up veiy thick. The cream is
very easily ehurned by meiely beating
it in a bowl, when it makes a delicately
flavored butter, which will not keep
for more than a few days. Few persons
who write upon dairy matters seem to
have a right idea ol the cause of this
thickening of the cream, and the pecu
liar quality and character of the butter
made from it. These depend wholly
upon the lact that the albumen in the
milk is coagulated by the heat and rises
to the top with the cream, and so adds
to its bulk us well as to its solidity.
This albumen gives the peculiar tiavor
to the butier as will as prevents it from
keeping.
Many gentlemen who have of late
years introduced fine blooded cattle on
their country Uomes to take the place
of native cows that have been discarded
often wonder at the increased yield of
the new coiners, and express surprise
that dairymen are so slow at adopting
the new wonders. The fact of it often
is that the old discarded scrubs would
have done quite as well as the new pets,
had they received the same care ami
generous treatment that is now being
lavished upon these favorites of the
master. Dairymen make it a point to
feed their cows up to all they are worth
even if they are natives, so that in their
hands there would not.be near so mark
ed an improvement in the change to
blooded co ws.
In visiting smalt dairies where hand
churns are used, it is a common sight
to see the churn turned bottom side up
on a table in tbe buh. This is done to
“air” it, but in fact it is put in just tbe
position that will not air it, as the
mouth is closed by iis contact with the
table on which it rests. Bet it right
side side up, and be sure not to let tbe
son dry it enough to make it leak.
Keeping the churn sweet inside is one
of the hardest things to accomplish in
the dairy, and if you will take a good
snifl at your own you will probably find
that heretofore yon have not sufficiently
appreciated the exre necessary to accom
plish this end.
It is a very bad practice to osrry
borne whey from the factory in the
milk cans, and it is sui prising that the
factorymen permit it to be done. Tbe
sour whey contains not only the germs
of acidity, but the peculiar ferment of
the rennet, and unless cleansed with
the greatest care will retain some of
these impurities to contaminate the
milk. A barrel could be earned with
out much trouble for this purjiose, and
the milk cans preserved for their
only proper aud legitimate use. Very
email things in dairies may do great
misohief.
A Burr Cure. — Weeds may lie de
stroyed for years by copious watering
with a solution of lime and sulphur in
boiling hot water. This, if effectual,
will be highly important to such as
have garden grave 1 walks, pavements,
etc., through which grass and weeds
grow up.
Thr growing animal intended for
beef requires a little exeacise daily, to
promote muscle and strength of consti
tution; when ripe, only so much as to
be able to wa'k to the market.
DOMESTIC.
To Roast a Fillet or Collar op
Sturgeon.—Take a piece of fresh stur
geon, gut it, take out the bones, and
cut the fleshy part in lengths about
seven or eight inches; then provide
some shrimps, chopped very small,
with oysters, some crumbs of bread,
and snob seasoning of spites as yon
like, with a little lemon peel, grated;
when this Is done butter one side of
your fish and strew some of yonr mix
ture upon it; then begin to roll it up as
close as possible, aud when the first
piece is rolled np, then roll upon that
another, prepared us before, and bind
it round with a narrow fillet, leaving as
innch of the first apparent as may be,
but you must remark tnat the roll
shonld not be above four inches
and a half thick, or else one part would
be done enough before tbe inside was
hardly warmed Therefore we have
sometimes parboiled the inside roll be
fore we begin to roll it; when it is at
tbe fire baste it well with butter and
dredge it with sifted raspings of bread.
Serye it with sauce.
What to Drink,—In the World of
Science a physician advises people not
to take coffee or tea after dinner or at
breakfast. Cocoa is recommended for
those who can digest it, but hot water
is better. Those who dine late, and
need a diluent drink an hour or two
afterward, but cannot drink tea on ao-
connt of being kept awake by it, are
also counselled to use hot water. “I
find,” he says, “that dining solidly at
7.39, and often needing to work from 9
to 11, a tumbler of hot water brought
into my laboratory is the best drink,
and, alter a few evenings, will be as
much relished as tea. The hot water
assists to complete the digestion of res
idual food, acts upon the kidneys, and
will ho found to wake one up without
injuring the stomach or keeping tho
brain awake alter bedtime. In cold
weather warm water is the best to drink
at dinner time, and in hot weather is
wholesome!' and more cooling than iced
water.”
For a Sick Ekadache.—Don’t take a
enp of strong tea, a dose c* * “blue mass,”
or anti-bilious pills; but if yon have
an attack of genuine sick headache, the
whole head aching as though it would
spin, the temples throbbing, the tongue
coated, and mouth tasting bad, no ap
petite, more or less nausea, and consti
pated bowels, drink a pint of warm (not
hot) water. Keep drinking until free
vomiting is produced, thus washing out
the stomach and relieving it of its load
of decomposing, undigested food. Next
take a hot enema, apply hot fermenta
tion to the bowels and drink freely of
very hot water. A fomentation about
the head or between the shoulders
will usually relieve the headache
very much. Eat nothing for twenty-
four hours, ami afterwards live upon
fruits and grains, avoiding meat, butter,
pastry, sugar, sauces and all indigesti
ble foods.
Remedy for Lockjaw,—If any per
son is threatened or taken witli lockjaw
from injuries of the arms, legs or feet,
do not wait for a doctor, but put the
part injured in the following prepara
tion; Put hot wood ashes into water as
warm as can lie borne. It the injured
part can not be put into water, then
wet thick folded cloths in the water and
apply to the part as soon as possible,
and at the same time bathe the back
bone trom tbe neck down with some
laxative stimulant—say cayenne pepper
and water (good vinegar is better than
water,) it stiould be us hot as the pa
tient can bear it, and don't stop until
the jaws will come open. No person
need die of lockjaw if these directions
are followed.
Antique Cream.—Dissolve an ounce
of gelatine in a pint of rich new milk;
strain it in a clean saucepan and stir in
gradually three ounces of sugar and
half a pint of sweet cream; to this add,
a little at a time, seven ounces of jam
or preserved fruit, or you may use fresh
frnit, but must in this case sweeten to
your taste. If stirred constantly while
cooking, the fruit will not sink to the
bottom of the dish. When the fruit is
soft, remove from the fire, put in an
earthen dish, aud beat with a fork until
the mix*me is light. If the fruit is uot
tart and of sufficiently distinct flavor,
add the juice of one lemon. This is
nice for dessert, with cake, as well as
for tea.
Cough Syrup.—Four teaspooufuls of
castor oil, lour (easpoonluls of molas
ses, one teaspooufui of camphor end
one teaspoonful of paragorio. Mix to
gether aud take a teaspooufui at a dose
four or five times a day. Mothers,try this;
a mouth old baby can take a few drops,
six months’ a half a teaspoonful aud a
year old a spoonful. When a child has a
cold and is threatened with croup begin
giving the syrup during the day aud ou
going to bed. If it coughs during the
night give more. It will not fail to
prevent croup aud cure a cough, A
grown person can take a much larger
dose.
Knitted Tidy.--One of the simplest
tidies, and a veiy pretty one, is made of
little inch and a half squares knitted
plainly (garter stitch) in scarlet yarn
and while cotton. They are sewed to
gether, on the wrong side, beginning
with one red square then two red, with a
white oue in the centre, then five alter
nating iu color then seven, then nine,
alter which decrease until you come to
one again. Joiu these strips m a dia
mond shape. Every point is finished
with a curu and tassel, or a ball ou a
little eord.
Cure for Hydr phobia.—Take the
root ol common upland ash, generally
called the hlach ash, peel off the bark,
and boii it to a strong deeootion, take
oue gill three times a day for eight or
ten days. If bitten by a mad dog, the
wound should be out out as soou as pos
sible, thoroughly washed with aqua-
ammonia, or tor want of that, iu a
solution of potash or common salt. The
bite of the rattlesnake aud most com
mon bites and stings may be cured iu
this way;
A Daisy Tidy.—Cut circles of white
muslin the size of a teacup, whip tbe
raw edge over so as to gather it up
close, then press dowu iu to make a
rosette. Make balls of yellow zephyr,
as described above, aud fasten oue
dowu tightly iu the oeutre of each daisy.
To do this trim one side flat and leave
the other round. Sew the daisies to
gether and tluiih the outer edge with
balls also if you choose.
Zephyr Balls—Are easiest made on
a large hail pm or wire, iu shape of oue.
Wrap the worsted iu even layers, tie it
tightly to the centre, aud cut where the
wires are ou at each side.

“Is this tram to stop at Neponset?”
a passenger asked a conductor of the
Old Colony Road the other forenoon.
“No, sir,” was the reply, "no stops
between Bontli Braintree and Boston.”
“Why, how’s that?” said the sur
prised inquirer: “yon used to stop there;
yon did the list time I came up.”
The conductor was puzzled. “Guess
you are wrong,” he said, “but when was
that time ?”
“Well,” replied his passenger, “I
can’t say exactly.” And after a mo
ment’s thought he oontiuued, “It was
when 1 built my barn—some time dur

The Oldeat Druggist.
Being ou* of the oldeat druggists In this
city (although having retired from busi
ness), I wish to say a good word about
Hunts Remedy, A number of years ago
l 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 hail been benefltted by the use
of Hunt’s Remedy, I unhesitatingly began
using it; aud after having fully tested Its
virtues I can say, as many of my customers
have said to me, “It is the best, medicine
for kidm-y aud liver complaint ever com
pounded.”
I have yet to learn of a single Instance
where it Las 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 the best known remedy, and the best is
the cheapest every time. Yours truly,

To build a ship so that in case of ac
cident to the bow the stern half can be
instantaneously separated from it, and
can continue the - voyage securely and
easily on its own account, is the latest
contribution to the list of safeguards
against the dangers of the sea. The
idea is that of a German inventor, and
is set forth with some detail in the
Hamburg Courier, which sees no reason
why it should not be entirely feasible.
It would require many departures from
the present mode of bull Hug vessels,as
well as from their internal arrangement
and equipment ; but the inventor asserts
that, as a whole,a vessel so construe et
could be fully as seaworthy and swift as
any built ou the piesent plan.and woult
be twice as secure against disaster.

would turn their attention to the mat

practicable, though all the airaugements
for announcing cyclones, &<?., are not
