ABOUT MANURES.
COMMON SALT As A MANURE.
Common salt is sometimes used
as manure, but it is exceedingly
doubtful whether it has any value
as such, or any fertilizing proper
ties whatever; but it is probable
that it does exert some chemical
effect in certain cases. It is clear
that salt is not a necessary plant
food. It may be found in the ash of
some agricultural plants, but it is
by no means nccessLry for their
full growth and development. Salt
is compounded of chlorine and
sodium, and hence its technical
name, chloride of sodium. The
two elements, chlorine and sodium,
are found in the ash of all plants,
but in very small quantities. What
the plant needs of these is abun
dantly supplied in the soil.
The favorable action of salt upon
vegetation (if indeed it has any) is
due, according to Liebig, to its
power to enable the plant to assimi
late the sulphur of the sulphate of
lime when that is applied.
The effect of salt in preserving
moat is due to the fact that salt
has a very strong attraction for
water. It has the power of extract
-ing water from all substances to
which it is applied.
When salt is applied to meat it
extraets the water from it and
ieasS it so dry that decomposition
is prevented. For instance, when
pork is salted and placed in a ves
sel in a short time a considerable
amount of water will be found in
the bottom of it. All of this water
has been extracted from the pork
by the action of the sa3t. When
salt is taken into the stomach it has
the same effect. It absorbs the
juices of the stomach, and when
taken in much quantity, produces
the most intense thirst. From these
facts, which are obtaimed from the
highest authorities, it would seem
that salt is worth very little as a
manure, and yet it has been used
very extensively for that purpose.
DIFFERENT CROPS REQUIRE DIF
FERENT MANURES.
As before observed, the different
crops require different kinds of
fertilizers. There are the lime,r
potash and 'silica plants-all dif
ferently constituted and requiring
different treatment. Wheat, oats,
rye and barley, the silica plants,
require an ammoniated fertilizer
combined with potash and phos
phoric acid. Turnips, beets, pota
toes and corn, the potash plants,
require a snper-phosphate corn
bined with potash.
(lover, beans and peas, require
lime combined with potash ; and
tobacco, which is classed with the
lime plants, requires lime, potash
and~ magnesia, combined with am
monia. isWhen an ammoniated fer- ~
tiizer isapplied to turnips, its am
monia, which is its most costly
ingredient, is in a great mneasare
lost. The turnip does not need
ammonia, and so with clover and
peas. These get -their nitrogen
from the atmosphere, and there is
no necessity of supplying it to them
artificially.
A few thoughts touching domes
tic manures, and the great impor
tance of saving them:
On every farm there is to be
found more or less of crude mate
rial, out of which a great deal of
valuable manure can be made by
composting and otherwise, and
which is generally wasted. Since1
the very general ir.troduction of I
chemical msnares, our farmers
have become very negligent in1
saving their domestic manures.
fr~r ~ithoimrh
Domestic manures are cemplete
Eertilizers. They furnish all the
:onstituents of plant fool, both
)rganic and inorganic, whilst the
ertilizers do not. These scarcely
ever supply more than four or five
Df the fourteen elements needed for'
the full development of the plant.
It is true that generally only from
two to fire need be supplied, the
balance being furnished abundantly
by the soil and the atmosphere.
But it sometimes happens that the
soil becomes exhausted of some of
the inferior elements, and, in con
sequence, becomes unproductive.
When this happens, the farmer, in
the absence of an analytical chemist,
has no means of ascertaining the
deficient element. But when the
domestic manures are freely used,
he cannot fail to supply the deficient
element, because they furnish them
all. Besides, it is best generally to
combine the two, for both of them
act better when so combined.
[Maryland Farmer.
GEESE.-On the advantages of
keeping geese, a writer in the
Maine Farmer a few years ago said:
"I once knew a couple of industrious
sisters, who lived near a never fail
ing brook, and they generally kept
through the winter thirty geese,
male and female. They had erected
some suitable but not expensive
sheds, in which they had apartments
for them to lay, sit and hatch.
Their food in the winter was meal
of various kinds to some extent,
but principally apples and roots. In
the summer they had a pasture en
closed with a stone wall, which em
braced the water. They kept their
wings so clipped that they could
not fly over such a fence. Their
owners ~knew what we all know,
that live geese feathers are a cash
article at a fair price. They picked
off their feathers three times in a
season. Those thirty geese winter
ed would raise seventy=five goslings,
or young geese, and of course they
had that number to dispose of every
fa'1 or in the beginning of winter,
when they are sent to market, and
again picked, making four times
they obtained feathers from those
they wintered, and twice from tho
young ones that they had killed."
CoTTAGE CHEESE.-ThOe who have
plenty of milk and make butter,
have an abundance of sour or clab
bored milk daily, clean and fresh,
which is the article desired to make
cottage cheese. The true way to
make this sort of cheese is to skim
the sour milk on the stove in a milk
pan and let it gradually warm till
it is lukewarm all through. Stir it
occasionally to prevent its harden
ing at the bottom. When it is a
little warmer than new milk, and
the whey begins to show clear
around the curd, pour it all into a
coarse, thin bag, tie it close, and
hang it up to strain. Let it hang
up two or three hours in a cool,
shady place, then take from the bag
and put the contents in a covered
dish. When preparing it for a meal
mix with the curd rich, sweet cream,
sugar and nutmeg. Some prefer
salt and pepper, b the sugar will
give it the flavor of fruits or acids.
his preparation of milk will often
be found most salutary and whole:
some for dyspeptice and weak, in
Tmed stomachs. The clabber is
iliso very nutritious and easily
digested.
GooD YEAST.-Take twelve large
potatoes, wash thenm well, and put
them on in a gallon of water, with
handful of hops when the potatoes
re nearly done. Let all boil to
~ether until the potatoes are cook
ad. Take them up, peel, and mash
vel; then strain the water upon
;hem, and add one teacupful of sugar
white preferred), and;one of salt.
2 cupfuls of sweet yeast to start
~ermentation. Set it near the fire
atil it begins to work, and then
ut it into bottles. Cork, and then
set them in a cool place. You
should put water enough when
done boiling to make a gallon of
>f yeast. Do not use a particle of,
our in making this yeast. It will
aot bubble and ferment as much as
3mmon yeast, but it is lively nev
rtheless. You must remember to
ase less salt than usual in making
ap the bread.
Cons CAKES.--Grate half a dozen
ears of green corn, stir in a cup of
xilk, add flour with which yeast
powder, in the proportion of tvwo
~easpoonfuls to the quart has been
sifted until the whole is a thick
atter. Add two or three eggs,
~vell beaten, and a pinch of salt.
Ery as batter cakes, or bake in gem
pans in a quick oven. A pleasant
breakfast dish.

B~EER.
The Commissioner of Agriculture, in his
report for the year 1875, spcaks as follows:
"Tnere can be no doubt of the general
adulteration of all malt liquors. In England
and other countries, where heavy penalties
arc imposed, and an increasing vigilance
practiced to detect and punish such frauds,
by a systemt of inspection of all malt liquors
manufactured before exposed to sale, the
practice is very common. How muchi more
in this country, where there e.re no laws on
the subjeci, and no officer to carefully ana
lyze the piroduxcts of the brewery? Some
years ago, Professor Mapes, of New York,
analyzed the beer from a dozen different
breweries, and all were found adulterated
with noxious substances. It is said that the
sale of drugs to brewers is a profitable part
of the trade. This, is perfectly infamous.
Cocculus indicus, (fish-berry,) mix vomica,
(dog-button, from which strychnine is ob
tained,) are some of the delectable substances
found in beer! These are potent poisons,
and the brewer found using them should be
dronued 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 scll 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
ig the color of worts beer, or any molasses,
vitriol, honey, quassia, coccolus indicus,
grains of paradise, Guinea pepper, or opium,
or any extract or preparation of molasses, or
any article or preparation to be used in worts
beer for or as a substitute for malt or hops;
and if any druggist shall offend in any of these
particulars, such preparation, &c., shall be
forfeited, and may be seized by any officer of
excise, and the person so offending shall for
fei five hundred pounds.'
"Under this law, 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 American 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 drop; of the
great increase of the number of malsters and
brwers; of the 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
hators should be called to the subject of the
adulterationi of our malt liquors, and severe
penalties sa>unld be inflicted as a preventive."

responding elementary branch, and I in
spelling. This system is developing new
advantages almost every day.
3. PREMICMS.-Every pupil whose two ses
sional reports average 75 or more is entitled
to a discount of 10 to 50 per cent. from her
next session's regular tuition.
