\ FARM AND HOUSEHOLD. rSKFl I. I.NFOH3IATIOX FOIt THE FAKMElt AXD HOt'SEKEEPEK. Commercial FeitilizerH Corre»f>ondence Journal and Review. I have just seen iu the Aiken Re corder an article copied from the Charleston Weekly News, by Capt. Peterkin, upon the subject of Com mercial fertilizers, which is so perti nent, so sensible, so filled with sound advice to farmers, that I feel con strained to give it my hearty endorse ment. There is no gainsaying the fact that there are thousands of dol lars lost to the farmers every year by the indiscriminate purchase and ap plication of fertilizers. It is not deniei that when a good article is used and judiciously applied, that the crops are increased, but the question is, and it is a very grave question, does the farmer make more money by their use, than he M-ould without them. Your writer is of the opinion that the country would have been better ofF, if there had never been a ton of them made, and this opinion is based upon an experience of forty years trial of them. As ad juncts they sometimes do good, but no permanent improvement of the soil can be obtained by their exclu sive use. Where our lands have been improved it is due mainly to home made manures, rotation of crops, rest, and protection from washing. If these are truths, is it not well for us to call a halt in our wild rush after commer cial fertilizers, and endeavor to util ize home resources. Under the pres ent system of farming the hard earned fruits of our labor goes to enrich the agents and manufacturers, leaving the farmer poor and dependent. At the present prices of fertilizers it is folly and madness for the farmers to buy them. If the manufacturers can not make and sell them at lower rates, in the name of reason and com mon sense let us cease to buy them, and if we make less, we will have less to pay out, and we may learn to live at home. T. W. Whatley. Florida .Flower Farms. N. Y. Tribune, Fort Meade Fla) Letter. Raising flowers for the manufacture of perfumery is an industry that is just getting a foothold in the South. Yankee brains and capital have opened up new fields of labor and profit in this state in a wonderful way since the war; and it is claimed that attar of roses can he made in Florida with as much success as in the gardens of Bulgaria. The two varieties of roses grown ate the musk and damask, and all attempts to raise them in parts of Europe other than on the southern slope! of Balkan mountains—a tract of land not over thirty miles wide and 300 long—have failed. Yet on the southern slopes of the Blue Ridge mountains and in parts of Florida, these same varieties of loses flourish abundantly, and it is claimed that eighteen acres well man aged will yield $40,000 per annum. The other flowers that are used for distillation, such as jassamine, violets. IflliesantT]ouquils, areal 1 hardy here and yield rich harvests of flowers to a generous cultivation. The only ques tion of making the perfumer’s art a leading industay down nere is the capital needed and the yankee go- aheaditiveness. Both of these seem about to he furnished in the near future. A representative of a large northern house has been prospecting around and experimenting with the flowers. He expressed himself as being well pleased with the success of his work, and a factory for the distillation of the flowers will shortly be erected somewhere iu the South as a result of his visit. This will give employment to hundreds of people, and make flower farming a paying as well as a pleasant industry. The method of making perfumery is a mysterj to many people, and interesting to all who use the sweet scented extracts on their handkerchiefs or clothes. There are two chief processes by which odors are extracted and retained. One is by distillation; the other, and by far the more delicate and interest ing, is by absorption, or enfluerage. This is resorted to in case of such flowers as the rose, jasamine, tuberose and cassia, where the essence is so flue that it has by practice been found to be injured by heat. The principle of odor absorption from flowers is based simply on the established law of affinity which hydrocarbons have for perfumes. When these have been highly purified they catch, and in catching concentrate and intensify, the odors communicated to them. Strawberries for the S«mt h. Mr. Mason, the excellent horticul turist of Crystal Springs, in the Texas Journal of Agiiculture gives the fol- fowing valuable facts and advice on strawberry culture: The most import ant item is the preparation of the soil previous to planting. Any well drained laud will produce this excel lent fruit, if properly prepared. Of course different varieties are adapted to different soils; some kinds are adapted to any soil. If possible strawberries should be planted on land which has been kept clean of grass and weeds the year before. Plow broadcast with a good turn plow and follow in each furrow with a subsoil plow. Wheh this is done, harrow thoroughly, then lay off rows and throw up beds, then harrow- down till the heils are about two inch es above the level of the ground. Straw ben ies are grown either in the hill or matted row. The hill system will give the finest berries, but the matted rowe the lar gest yield. If to be cultivated in hills the rows should he three feet apart and the plants one to two feet apart in the row'. If in matted rows, four feet apart, and from two to three feet apart in the row', according to variety. Mistress tu> cook)—“Your name, Mary, and my daughters being the same, makes matters somewhat con fusing. Now* how do you like, say, the name of Bridget?” Cook— “Share, mum, an’ it’s not mesilf that’s particular. Oim willun to call the young lady onythin’ yez loike.” Warming Food lor Milch Cows. It is not accidental that the best dairy regions in the world have been located in moist warm climates, where extremes of heat end cold do not prevail, says the American Culti vator. Holland and the adjacent re gions along the North Sea are in Eu rope the centers where the best milkers have been bred. It is much easier to overcome severe cold than heat or drouth. We pro vide for this much better than for merly. Basement barns well protect ed from the ingress of cold, can, with a good supply of cattle, sheep and horses, be made as comfortable for them as houses are for men and wo men. But shelter alone is not enough. When the temperature goes down to zero or below the large amount of chilled food and drink which even the best sheltered animals must take will reduce its temperature and make it less thrifty than it should be. The advantage of cooked food and boiled drinks for people lies in the fact that they are generally lukewarm. This is always the case while the ex periment is new. After awhile the ardor of the experiment cools. The farmer does not find time to fuss every day in cooking up something fresh. Preparing food several days in ad vance it gets chilled by exposure, and if it contains much moisture, sometimes freezes. In the end the animal may be injured by the alter nate plan of coddling and expo sure. The effects of warm food and drink are probably more quickly perceptible in cow*s than other farm animals. The yield of milk is largely affected by the condition of the milk glands, w’hich are expanded by warmth and contracted by cold. When a cow slaud* shivering in the winds or storm, with every muscle and nerve rigid anil strained, the effect of this discomfort is sooner shown in the milk section than in anything else. Cold weather dries up the cow, no matter how well she is fed, unless she is sheltered from its effects. »She may and will fatten by high feeding, hut tier milk is lessiu quantity and poor er in quality as the carbon that should make the cream is used up iu (lie ani mal ecomomy to create warmth. Enough of the food is thus diverted from any profitable use under the most favorable conditions, and the amount wasted may he indefiuately increased by neglect. Warming drink for cows to make them give more milk requires some precautions to prevent injury. The animal drinks much more and is more susceptible to sudden changes of temperature. The warm drink must be accompanied by extra good and nutricious food, or a good cow will rapidly loose flesh under the un natural stimulation of milk secretion. The feeding of ensilage, unless it is enriched by adding meal to it, is open to the same objection. It is one of the ways to keep in cold weather the conditions of a laxative food stimula ting to milk secretion, under which the best cows usually lose flesh during the summer. But a careful feeder who watches the effects of different k. : nds-»f treatment-wtilTeadily g.rcml against these dangers. Keep the Stable Light. Dark stables, says the Western World, are an abomination, and should not be tolerated. There is no necessity to sacrifice comfort, either in winter, to secure enough light. A horse’s eye is enlarged—the pupil of the eye is— by being kept in a dark stable: be has a Imruess put on him and suddenly brought out into a bright glaring sunlight, which con tracts the pupil so suddenly as to cause extreme pain. By persevering in this very foolish and injudicious as well as cruel practice, the nerve of the eye becomes impaired, and if contin ued long enough loss of sight will ensue. To see how very painful it is to face a bright light after having been in the dark, take a walk some dark night for a short time till the eye becomes ac customed to the darkness, then drop suddenly Into some well-lighted room and you will scarcely be able to see for a few moments in the sudden light. You know how painful it is to yourself, then why have your horse repeatedly hear such unnecessary pain? A dark stable is invariably a damp one, and such a stable we are not j’et willing to put either a valuable work ing or driving horse in. Give good ventilation, let the sunlight and air have a chance to effect ah entrance, and your stables will be purer and healthier than if you take sach pains to exclude them and the good influ ence they invariably bring. Health’s Alphabet. The Ladies’ Sanitary Association of London gives the following simple rules for keeping health: As soon as you are up shake blanket and sheet; Better be without shoes than set with wet feet; Children, if healthy, are active, not still; Damp beds and damp clothes will both make you ill; Eat slowly, and always chew your food well; Freshen the air of the house where you dwell; Garments must never be made too tight; Houses should be healthy, airy and bright; If you wish to be well—as you do I’ve no doubt— Just open the window’ before you go out; Keep the room always tidy and clean; Let dust on the furniture never he seen; Much illness is caused by want of pure air; Now to open the windows be ever your care; Old rags and old rubbish should never be kept; People should see that their floors are well swept; Quick movements in children are healthy and right; Remember the young cannot thrive without light; See the cistern is clean to the brim; Take care that your dress is all tidy and trim; Use your nose to find if there be a bad drain; Very sad are the fevers that come in its train; Walk as much as you can without feeling fatigue; Xerxes could walk full many a league; Your health is your wealth, which your wisdom must keep; Zeal will help a good cause and the good you will reap. A delicious eponge cake, which made with due care never fails, is worth knowing how’ to make. If these directions are followed the result will be as near perfection as is possible for anything in a lerrestial state of exislance to he. Four eggs, with the whites of two reserved for frosting, are beaten until light: then two cups of puverlzed sugar, which has been twice sifted, is added, and is oeaten will', the eggs; two small tea- spoonfuls of baking-powder with two cups of flour are sifted twice, and ad ded, a little at a time, to the eggs and sugar; stirring well; lastly, add a cup of hot water, but a little below the boiling point—for exauple: let the water boil, F..en set the kettle back on the tank for two or three minutes; do not put all the hot water into the dough at once, but a third at a time; beat well; flavor with lemon. Bake in a sheet-iron dripping pan, carefully lined with paper. The oven should be what is known to cooks as a mod erate oven. Tile cake will bake in from twenty to thirty minutes. Why You Feel So weak and exhausted is because your blood is impure. As well expect the sanitary a oiidilion oi a city to be per- feaO with allUiied water anal defective sewerage, us lo expect such a coiupli- eateal piece of mechanism as the human frame ta> be in guoal order with impure biasid cinmlating even to its minutest veins. Daj yam know that every drop aif your two air three galloii.4 of blood pa.ssavs through tha: heart and lungs in about two anal a half minutes, and that, on its way, it makes bone and muscle, b:atn ami nerve, and all other solids and ilnials a>f tha; body? The blood is the great nourishcr, or, as the Bible terms it, “The Life of the Body.” Is it any womler, then, that if the blood Ik; not pure anal perfect in its consti tuents, you sufTer so many indescribable symptoms? Ayer's Sarsaparilla stands “head and shoulalers ” above every other Alter ative and Blood Medicine. As proof, reaal these reliable testimonies: G. C. Brock, of Lowell, Mass., says: “ For the past 25 years I have sold Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. In my opinion, the ha;st remedial agencies for the cure of all the diseases arising from impuri ties <>f the blood are contained in this iniMiicine.” F’i ;••:!<* I. Hill, M. D., 381 Sixth Ave., New York, says: “As a blood-purifier a:i.i g uieral builder-up of the system, I have never found anything to equal Ayer's Sarsaparilla. It gives perfect satisfaction.” Ayer’s Sarsaparilla proves equally efficacious in all forms of Scrofula, Boils, Carbuncles, Eczema, Humors, Lumbago, Catarrh, &c.; ami is, there fore, the very best Spring and Family Medicine in use. “ It lieats all,” says Mr. Cutler, of Cutler Brothers & Co., Boston, “how Ayer’s Sarsaparilla does sell.” Prepared by Or.
