Yet it cannot be denied that the conditions of existence under which animals live, more especially in crowded cities, are. as a rule, un favorable not only to their own health,but also to that of the public. Horses, for instance, crowded to gether in ill ventilated stables such as are to be found in many a filthy mews, even in the best parts of Lor.don, not unfrequently com municate their disorders to those who a.ttend them, and exercise a decidedly miasmatic influence of a most injurious nature over the sur rounding neighborhood. Pure air and wholesome food are as neces sary for animals as for human be ings-a fact which appears to be entirely forgotten by the owners of dogs and horses established in cities. Who can tell how many ailments arise from the presence of a sickly over-fed dog in a family circle ? It may also be pointed out that as a medium for circulating infectious disorders there is pro babiy nothing to equal a cat. Obrewin~g -~the- endi, a function peculiar to a great-number of our. domestic animals, is sometimes sus pended from various causes, among the most common of which is de rangement of the digestive organs. Sometimes, however, from sym pathy with disease of some remote organ. Where loss of cud is to be attributed to the former cause all that is necessary is to give the animal a mild cathartic, followed up with stimulants and tonics; sma?ll and repeated doses of Jamaica ginger and gentian has,an excel lent effect, but when it can be traced to the latter cause the dis ease with which it sympathizes must be eradicated before rumina tion will be restored. THrE CU:CUMBER.-This, like the melon, wants rich land having in its composition an abundant supply of vegetable matter. Its roots do not run so far as the roots of the watermelon,hence one can, in plant ing it, have a better excuse for making the land richest near the hill. For the ordmnary varieties the~ hills should be made about six feet apart. Put in plenty of seeds to make sure of a good stand, andl when the plants begin to run, thin to two in the hill. If the weather! is dry the plants should be treated to .irequent watering with liquid manure, and also to mulching with somje.kind of litter calculated to prevent the moisture from drying out. 'The Early Frame is best for the main early crop and the Long Green for late. The Early White. Spine is the earliest variety we have. As a food the cucumber is by no means worth its weight in gold, still people will make use of it and that is their business of course. The way of preparing it to make it most wholesome is to cook it precisely as you cook egg plants. Properly prepared in this way it is ver*y much like the egg plant. To be in proper condition for this pre paration it must be almost ripe must be cooked just before the seeds have become too hard to cut readily. SETmia HiENs. - In setting young fowls, place them upon arti ficial eggs for a few days to see if the "mean business." If they SOWING GRASS SEEDS.-The fol lowing directions for sowing grass seeds will be found useful at the present time :-In sowing we ad vise, for obvious reasons, that the soil should be clean, in good condi tion-the surfco made level and firm and perfectly pulverized by barrowing and rolling. A calm, till day, when rain is approach ing, is most suitable for the work. After sowing, the surface should be only lightly harrowed and rolled. A firm seed bed and a epth of covering of a quarter to half an inch is most favorable for the vegetation of small seeds. If covered deeply they do not grow .t all, or in very small proportions; if not coveied, many of the seeds are picked up by small birds, and the vegetation of those that escape depends upon their being washed into the soil by rain. Young grasses are injured by frost. The proper season, therefore, for sow ing extends from March to Sep tember; the spring months are preferable. If the land works un kindly, seeds will not vegetate well and a larger quantity must be sown to obtain a plant. Grass seeds may be sown with or upon land already planted with wheat, barley or oats, as a regular crop, with every chance of success except in cases where the cereal rops are over abundant and lodged. When sown without a rop-for the safe protection of the finer grasses and to increase the produce of the first year, it is %dvisable to add to the quantity >f rye grass sown and also a bushel :f oats or barley per acre. SOWING oN HORSEBACK.-N um arous as have been the instructions f late for preserving the almost lost art" of sowing grain by band,tbere remains one mode that has escaped mention, and which, when mentioned, will probably be lerided by those who have not tried it. I allude to sowing on orseback. Sulky rakes, sulky rollers, etc., are regarded as useful ontrivances for the saving of hn mian labor, but none of your rrespondents appear to have thought of making the horse per form the labor of walking, and arrying seed bag and sower to nd fro across the field during the peration of sowing the grain. And yet, after a long experience, the writer has found that he could listribute seed grain more regu larly from the saddle than on foot, and with far more ease and comn Fort-as any good seedsman will fnd after a short practice. Grass seeds, however, being lighter tban grain, are best sown on foot. . Country Gentleman. -ONON CULTURaE.-A corresponi lent says he has raised onions From the seed of the new giant variety over four inches in diamne ter, and considers them nicer than those raised from sets. The ground should be rich mellow, free from grass and weed seeds, and inclined to become hard if dry weather should set in. Plough early in the spring and scatter over the ground well rolled manure to the depth of an inch. Harrow thoroughly, and if there are any clods remaining use the roller. If the season is good 400 bushels can be raised to the are. Plant in drills fourteen inches apart, putting in four pounds of seed to the acre. Cover to the depth of half an inch. When the onions can be seen in rows, loosen the ground with a hoe to destroy the young weeds. When the onions are about four inches high thin out, letting them stand from one to one and a half inches apart. Be careful not to disturb the onion when hoeing. CocoANu'r CAKE.-Three cups of flour, three of sugar, one of weet milk, whites of ten eggs, beaten to a high froth, three tea soonfuls of baking powder; bake in three deep jelly-cake pans, with iing between. Icing for same: Wbites of three eggs, beaten until stiff; addI quarter pound of p)ul verized white sugar for every egg; beat again until quite stiff; into this grate one cocoanut ; dip a cse knife into hot water, and spread the icing; this will pro. vent it adhering. CrOCOLATE JUMBLES.-One cup ful of butter, two cupfuls sugar, three cupfuls flour, four eggs, two cupfuls of gr'ated chocolate, one tea~spoouful soda, one teaspoonful cream tartar a little suIt roll .JIiscelianeous.

This certaftes that I have recommended the use of Dr. Tutt's Expectorant for diseases of the lungs for the past two years. and to my knowledge many bottles have been used by my patients with the hap piest resnits.

In England and other countries, wvhere heavy penalties are imposed, and an iucreasing vigilance practiced to detect anid punish such frauds, by a system of inspection of all m:,ht liquors manufactured before exposed to sale, the practice is very common. How much more in this country, where there are no laws on the subject, and no officer to carefully ana lyze the products of the brewery ? Some ears ago, Professor Mapes, of New York, :imalvzed the beer from a dozen dlifferent breweries, and all were found adulreratcd with noxious stubstances. It is said that tiac sae of' drugs to brewers is a profitale part of the trade. This is perfectly infamous. Cocculus~ indicus, (fish-berry.) nux vomica, (dog-button, from which strychnine is ob tained,) are some of the dlelectamble substances found in beer! -These are potent poisons, and the brewer found using them should be droned at once in one of his own vats. The British Parliament passed a law to pre vent this nefarious business. The following is an extract: 'No druggist, vender of or dealer in drugs, or chemist, or any other person, shall sell or deliver to any licensed brewer, dealer in or retailer of beer, knowing them to be such, or shall sell or deliver to any person on account of,or in trust for, any such brewer, dealer or retailer, any liquor called by the name of or sold for coloring, from whatever material the same may be made; or any material or preparation other than unground brown malt, for the darken ing the color of worts beer, or any molasses, vitriol, honey, quassia, coccolus indicus, grains of paradise, Guinea pepper, or opium, r any extract or preparation of' molasses, or n article or preparation to be used in worts Ibeer for or as a substitute for' malt or hops; Iand if any druggist shall offend in any of these particulars. such preparation, &c., shall be forfeited, and may be seizeil by any officer of excise, and the person so offending shall for-* feit five hundred pounds.' "Under this iaw, very many druggists and brewers were brought to grief, and yet the practice continues. Unless the American public are ready to admit the immaculate purity and innocence of Ameriean brewers, they must be content, while drinking their beer, to cherish the belief that they are at the same time guzzling some narcotic poison or damaging medicine. In view of the unpre cedented growth of the barley crop; of the great increase of the number of malsters and brewers; of tile vast unknown quantities of beer that are drunk in every city and almost every town on the continent, it is the dictate of sound wisdom that the attention of legis lators should be called to the subject of' the adulteration of our malt lignors, and severeI penalties should be inflicted as a preventive."
