AN EXPERT OX TEA MAKINO. A tea expert says that a pound of tea will furnish 300 cups of liquor if it be made properly, but that the maximum benefits of the leaf, both in the matter rtf smnlifv and niifiiititv. are seldom en v' 1? 1 J, _ joyed because of the general ignorance of what appears to be so simple a process a3 t? require no care, the method of brewing. He says the tea leaves should be put into a earthen or agate ware pot (never use metal) and stand on the back of the stove until thoroughly warmed. Then hissing hot water which has been freshly boiled should be poured in and 1 the pot should be placed at the back ol the stove for ten minutes, where it will keep hot but not boil. At the expiration of that time the tea will be perfect, but if it is desired to keep it so the liquor must be poured off into another vessel,so as to separate it from the leaves, which after a while would give off an astringent element. In serviug, the cups aud tho cream should be warm and the cream i should be put into the cups before the tea.

Of all the different kinds of churns in use in fanners' houses, for a email family dairy, -writes Mrs. "W. U. "Webster, I give the preference to the good old-fashioned dash churn. It is easily managed in every -way, not hard to work in churning, and takes up but very little room. You can easily raise the lid and look into it at any time to soe how matters are progressing, the butter is easily gathered ind taken out when it comes, and the churn is easily cleaned afterwards. In winter the mistake is often made of keeping the cream so long that it be comes bitter before it is ciiurnea. 1 jiKe to have the cream a little bit sour, and set it in a warm place long enough for it to taste slightly acid before I chum it, but in a cold climate it won't do to keep It long enough to sour naturally, unless one is willing to run the risk ot having a bitter taste in the butter. Butter that comes in a reasonable time will be much better than that which is churned for hours, as is sometimes the case. This j delay in coming I believe is frequetly caused by keeping the cream where it is hot and cold by turns, and also keeping it too long. The churning should be regular?not fast and then slow, and should be kept up without long intermissions until it is done.?New York World. The brusque and fussy impulse of these days of false impression would rate down all as worthless because one is unworthy. As if there were no motes in sunbeams! Or comets among stars!

With the numerous excellent books se< and papers io every branch of horticul ture now to be had so cheaply, it seems im almost needless to offer instruction on so simple a matter as planting a tree, yet so often is the quesdon asked by customers, J ca that I try to answer here for all who do not know. Make ground thoroughly mellow at least fifteen inches deep and three or four feet wide every way, if pl; holes are to be dug; thorough plowing of entire plat is preferable if it can be done, mi Prune the tree close, straighten out roots evenly, having the tree standing the j3 si me depth it was in nursery; work fine, mellow soil?but no manure?all among , the roots, and when they are all covered an inch or two, then press the soil very firmly down with the foot or a broad- 13 ended maul, after which fill up evenly with loose soil, over which a mulch of rotten straw or manure three or four hi: inches deep, extending three feet every fu way from the tree. Whether the mulch is put on or not, keep the soil well culti- ho vated about the tree.

TV( "Put the bull to work." Such is the ^ advice which we find in one of our exchanges. Very good, as far as the theory goes. But when it comes to the practi- ac cal part of it we would like to inquiro mi what line of work the bull can do to advantage at this season of the year. It is ca not time to plow, and if it was the bull a J would not make a very good team to plow with. If a harness was made for him, se ? - ?J.J i .^1.4 i.? ana a cart was proviueu, ue migui, uc iv used for drawi*g manure to the fields; ro but these trappings would cost more than his work would be worth, aud the ar, horses or oxen usually employed for the ^ purpose would find their "occupation pr gone." The same trouble about workiug the bull will be found at all seasons , of the year. There is very little work to be done on the ordinary farm which the bull can do to advantage. Not only this, but the bull is an unsafe animal to hnmllo T-Tp is nlwflvs treacherous, is liable to be violett, and is never to be trusted for a moment. It might be good for the bull to work, but we believe that, in the great majority of cases, the vc bull would receive a great deal more wi bent-fit than his owner would obtain from gc the labor which he performed.?Amsi'i;un Dairyman. he BETTER WAGONS WASTED. a , 'Dynamometer tests with wagons," made by the Utah Experiment Station ke (at Logan), indicate that there is "a de- to cided opportunity for improvement"' of th these vehicles in various ways, as set forth in Bulletin No. 4, which, we presumc, would be forwarded to any appli- jj. cant specially interested in the subject. The summary of conclusions, condensed from nineteen pages of interesting data, is as follows: "c "When the load was placed over the hind wheels it drew 10 per cent, easier *ie than vhen over the front wheels. 2. The hind wheels drew 23.3 per ceut. su easier over an obstacle 3 in. high thau pa the front wheels. This was when attach- m ment of the force was directly applied to wi each set of wheels, o.

Wbeu the ends of co the wagon were reversed, aud the draft w: was applied directly to the hind wheels, ni it drew nearly 5 percent, easier. 5. The pe incline of the reach toward the front wheels, as now put in, causes the wagon QC to draw harder than it should. 6. Lower- gu ingthe reach or the point of application iji cf force on the hind wheels materially jn decreases the draft?therefore the rcach should run horizontally or on an upward incline from the rear to the front wheels. 7.

There are two ways of raising cabbage i the open ground. One is by trans- t\* anting plants, the other by sowing the in cd in the hills or drills just where the N< ibbage is to be grown. If the plants ca ive been started in hotbeds or cold bu ames for an early crop or are to occupy oil nd as a second crop, it is necessary de lat they should be transplanted; but if la< is to be the one crop of the season on P( ie luiiu it id iu uuuujij, iu>^u ii< 10 but j an ilief of the farmers in the great cabbage- fie ising sections of New England that the OC ;st plan i3 to plant the seed just where ag e cabbage is to be grown. Experienco rii is taught us that by this plan the piece mi alures more evenly than when the th ants are transplanted, while they are fie rtainly as reliable for heading, for tic hen 100 per cent, of the plants make fu arketable heads?as I have known in- wt mces?nothing better can be asked, ca iiose who have been in the habit of tic ansplauting cauliflowers will fin I they ad ill do decidedly better when the seeds of e planted in the hills where they are to be matured. A plan now somewhat ha immon among market gardeners is to on ill the seed of cabbage sufficiently at ick that by cutting out the extra m< ants with the hoe the remainder will all t left at the distanca suitable. This re dres more seed, while it saves a good al of time and back-brtaking work, le gieat defect in this manner of plant- j ? has been that it left the seed too { ick, much thicker than was necessary rthe ends desired. In my planting in e drill we used last season the Mathews ^ ed drill. My foreman made an in- M nious change in its dropping capacity, jjj rich is worth putting on record.

For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and proscribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
