To Cook Husbands.
Wo have soon many receipts i

to print it for the benefit of tli
young matrons and Indies of lh

now to cook in sisanhs.
"A good many husbands ar
entirely spoiled by mismanage
n eu in cooking, and so are no
teiiilei and good. Some womc
keep them constantly in hot water
others tree/.e them, others pu
tln-m in a slew, others roast them
and ethers constantly keep then
in a pickle. It cannot he sup
posed that any husband will b
good and tender managed in thi
way, but they are really delieiou
when properly t rented.
' In selecting your husband
you should not bo guided by th
silvery appearance, as m buyin;
mackerel, nor by the golden tint
ns if you wanted salmon. 15.? sun
md select liim yourself, as tusti
IiHers. Do not go to the narke
for him, as those brought to tin
loor are best. It is far better t<
lave rone than not to learn hoe
.o cook them properly. It doei
lot make so much difference whai
i'oii cook him in as how you cool
lim.
"See that the linen in which h<
s wrapped is white and nicel\
nended, with the required num?er
of strings and buttons. Don't
teep liim in the kettle by force,
is he will stay there himself il
uopor care is taken. If ho spliter
or fi/./., do not get anxious,
none husbands do this. Add n
ittle sugar in the form of what
onfeotioners call "kisses," out
io vinegar or pepper on any ueoiint.
A 'ittle spice improve*
hem, but it must tie used with
udgment. Do not try lum with
nything sharp, to soe if he is he
oming tei der. Stir him gently
lie while, least he stay too long
a the kettle and become Mat. and
sateless. If thu? treated you
'ill find him very digestible,
greeing nicely with you, and ho
nil keep as long as you want."
The Farmer's Friend.
The Yorkville correspondent of
tie News and Courier expresses
is view a in regard to the i est
id hod of fighting the fertilizer
rust, in which he says that deep
lowing un<l thorough pulveri/.a
ion of the soil will hoIvo the
rohlem, as follows:
Several weeks ago the writer
ailed attention to an article from
he Southern Cultivator, which
learly set forth a sensible and efective
plan by which the Fertiliser
Truat cannot only be brought
o terms, but may eventually be
noted, but it is so simple and
heap that it is not likely to be
ested by one farmer in every
mndred in the state.
The plan has merit and lots of
t and the plan is again brought
r? the attention of tlio farmers
idtli the conviction that in le?s
Imn ten years it will be the sole
eliance of a majority of the suees.ful
fanners of the State.
Tlio subject may best be inlrouccd
by recalling a bit of the
griculluial history of Kngland
t is said to have happened durng
the term of Loid Bacon. The
armera concluded that they had.
cached a point where it was imlossible,
owing to the large inreaae
in their numbers and the
onsequent curtailinant of the
vai'ahle tillable land, to make
efficiently large crops to support
hemselves and families and pay
he heavy rents that were oxactad
>y the landowners, and there wa?
;reat discontent among tham and
justly ?o. At this critical juncture
Lord Bacon caused won! to
i bo sent throughout the rural disa
tricts that if the farmers would
r assemble at a certain place on a
t certain day ho would lay before
s them a scheme by which each
i man could double the quuntity of
0 his land. They had unbounded
e confidence in Ins lordship and on
the appointed day they were there
from every section. Whan the
. 1
momentous hour arrived the star ,
speaker took his place on lli? plat
1 form prepared for tho oecasion, I
and after a few words of mpathy J
' for the "mudsills" delivered him I
1 self about as follows: "Men, I
I
' am hero today for the purpose of
* telling you how to increase the
quantity iof land that you may
1 have to cultivate and I will pro- '
ceed to do so in a very few words. '
Tho way to double vour land is>
s to ploujx'a it just twice as deeo ns
bus t>?en your custom and the
yield will be twice as great."
The statement struck the assemhled
multitude as being both
r
silly and impracticable and many
of them were filled with indignation
at the supposed lieartlcssncss
! of the great and wise Lord Bacon.
But after a sober second thought
> .
( many of them decided to test the
matter, not because they felt that
' the scheme wan practical, but beI
cause of their great confi Unco in
' the man who said the desired end
could be accomplished in that
way.
As a result the yield per acre
was twice as great as it had pre
i viouslv been and before muny
years deep and thorough propara
> tion of the land was the rule in
England, and it prevails to this
timo.
In South Cuiolina today the
average farmer breaks his land to
* 1
the depth of about one and a luilf ,
to two inches, leaving the ground
below that depth as hard as a
brick, ami it can only bo made .
soluble by the use of the chemicals
contained in the commercial
fertilizers controlled by the trusts.
The remedy is to break the land
to a depth of not less than six
inches ami to pulverize it thor
(Highly with a disc harrow. By
tl)iw.method the fanner will have (
not less than twice as much sol- i
uhle soil for his plants to feed on i
as hy the old method, and lie wil| ;
find, as stated in the previous ar i
tide, that the yield on the land i
thus prepared, without manure, i
will he equally as great, acre for i
acre, as on that prepared hy the i
old method and on which not <
less than two hundred pounds of I
the hest fertilizer is used per i
acre.
