Sugar barrels and boxes can b^ lived from ants by drawing a widechaik mark just round the edge-of tho top of them. The mark must bo unbroken or they will creep over it; but a contiu? >us chalk mark halfttti inch in width will set their depredations at naught. Powdered alum or borax will keep,the chintz-bug at a respectful distance, and travelers always carry a bundle of it in their hand bugs to scatter over and under their pillows in hotels, etc While Playing at :i hotel once with a party most of whom complained sadly of the nightly attacks of these disgust ing insects, I was able to keep them en tirely at bay by its use, and I distribu ted tho contents of my bun lie among tho party, to their great relief. CUpUMBERR FOR pickles. First .get a good kind of cucumber, then proceed as follows.: lie careful in picking not to bruise them; wash them clean; pack them in stone jars, as they are Jar the best, with ono quart of silt, to every . peck of pickles and ono and a 'half gallons of water to every five gallons of pickles; also a lump ol alum as largo ?as a hep's egg to every five gallons of pickles'. When your jar is full put a clean flannel cloth over the:n, with tt weight heavy enough to keep them undor the brine, and keep the cloth clean and frco from mold. Now, in soaking them for use, the quicker it is douo tho better your pickles will b : . "When frcf honing keep pleu'y of fresh water on them. Now scald in a brass or copper k?ttle, j using weak viuegar for the purp'->so, and about enough to cover your pickles, adding a lump of a mil us large as a quail's egg to every gallon of pick los. Scald slowly until they get scalding b it, but du not lot i limn boil; Ukp them out and lay thctn in a stone jar, us in g cinnamon or cloves, to suit the taste. Spread one largo cofl'ee cup of sugar to ono gallon of pickles over them; theu pour vinegar (not too strong) also over them. This vinegar will do for use again. If made in this way they will keep for months and bo as plump and sweet as tho day they were put up. Your vinegar should not ho to*, sttoug, as that would mako them sour aud destroy the taste of tho sugar. GARE of sheep. "Flock MtiBtcr," oI'Lancnster County, Peun., writes tho Gerinantown Tele graph ns Jollows: "I send you the fob blowing scaBonablo hints in rogard to tho c?rc of sheep: During the wint or and curly spring sheep aro often affected With coids; these, if neglected, (Vc|uent ly bccouio so deeply seated as to he incurable,"'and cud in phthisic or con sumption. Tho best remedy for a cold is, first, place your sheep in 11 well vontilnted, dry stable, comfortably littered; and second, give it any slightly purging medicine, with n moderate allowance of hay, ami a bran mash, one fifth of which should be oil meal. Colds and catarrhs arc not only opidotnio, but endemic; be careful, therefore, where you winter your sheep, that there is no predisposing cause in their locality; and when they aro at tacked, remove the m instantly Iroin the flock. By fallowing these precautions, and keeping them weli led, sheltered, aired, watered, and salted, one may bid defiance to disease among his Hock."
