FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD. Ddmeatlr Recipe*. Gumbo.?Prepare fresh okra pods and ripe tomatoes in equal parts by measure; cook till soft; strain through a oo'ander; add butter, pepper and salt; serve with slices of nice toasted bread. Cherry Jam.?To every pound of stoned cherries add half a pound of sugar and a gill of red currant juice. Boil the whole together until it stiffens, then put in jars; oover with egg paper when odd. To Can Raspberries.?Fill the can full of the berries, set them in a boiler of cold water, and briDg the water to * the boiling point As the berries settle, add more till the juice reaches the top of the can, then seal. In this way the syrup is undiluted with water. Or put the berries iu a stewpan with a little water, let them boil four or five minutes, dip into cans and seal up. Cauliflower Pickle.?Select the closest and whitest flowers, pull them in bunches, spread them on earthen dishes, sprinkle salt on them; in three days put them in earthen jars, pour scalding salt water on them; let them stand' six or eight hours, drain them carefully; then put them in glass cans, cover with vinegar and seal up tightly. Elder flowers and bads add a very high flavor to pickle and horseradish. Either the leaves or the root will keep pickles from molding. Dried Raspberries. ?These are among the choicest of our dried fruits, and may l?e prepared with comparatively little trouble. Pick them over oarefully, spread them on earthen plates, cover with netting to keep insects away, and dry in the san. Those who have hot-bed sashes may place clean boards nnder the sashes and on the boards put the berries. In this position they dry rapidly. In localities where raspberries abound, drying them may bo made quite profitable, as they bring at wholesale from twenty-five to thirty-five cents a pound, and at retail from five to ten cents more. When dry, they may be put in paper bags, tied tightly, and kept in a room clean, cool and dry. To Clean Ibon Kettles.?The tasto of iron which is communicated to food cooked in new iron vessels may be prevented by following the subjoined directions. Fill the vessel with dry hay, pour over it boiling water until it is full, and let it boil all day, then empty the vessel and grease it thoroughly with clean fresh dripping? of fresh lard; repeat the prooess until no more grease is absorbed, then wash it clean and use it two or three times for cooking fat meats. By that time anything can be cooked in it without being tinctured with the extract of iron. Qaeitioai and Answers. What will prevent a hen from plucking feathers ? Hens that pluck feathers are after the salt contained in the minute globule of blood at the end of the quills; therefore, when occasionally furnished with salt they will not pluck feathers. The salt should be dissolved in hop water before mixing with the food. A tablespoonful of salt in every eight quarts of wheat bran and corn meal (mixed, four parts of the latter to one of tho former), scalded and oooled, given twice a day, is a certain antidote. How prevent a dog from sacking eggs? Fill an egg shell with somo peppery mixture?something that will burn his month, and he will not try a second egg. What is the difference between the weevil and the midge? The weevil is a small insect that develops in the wheat after it is gathered and stored, and it feeds upon the ripened kernel. The midge is also a small insect; it hatches between the chaff and the gram of the growing wheat, and does the mischief in the larvae state before the kernel passes out of the milky condition. The midge is a Northern insect and the weevil is a Southern one. About the only remedy appears to be to refrain from SQwing those fields that have been infested in wheat the next year. Beardol varieties are less liable to be attackea by the worm than the smooth kinds. In sending milk a distance, is it necessary to have water in it to make it keep? The keeping qualities of milk are greatly improved by the addition of water. A liberal quantity of water added i/V IrAAVUI V\A44/\?I 4 WftVt 4k A *\r* *A mim uiuua ucttci tuc puic article. However, the quality of the milk is damaged, aud it is but just that consumers should receive it pure as well as sweet. This can be done by placing the milk cans with the pure milk in water, and not by putting water in the milk. Why do bees seal up cracks and openings iif hives? To retain the animal heat. Upon what conditions does success in wintering bees depend? Perfect quiet, good ventilation, and , good stocks in the fall. Is it necessary to give bees a light when they are wintered in the cellar of a house ? No. Orchard aad Nursery. Young trees will suffer from the hot sun and dryness. See to the mulch if one is not already put on, lose no time in applying it, and replace any that may have been disturbed by the wind or otherwise. If a young tree seems to be suffering give it an extra mulch, and if it has a long, naked trunk tie some hay or straw around to shade it. Grafts set this spring need attention. If they push too vigorously, pinch the end out; if too many buds start, remove useless shoots. See that shoots from the stock do not rob the graft. Seedlings, especially of forest trees, will suffer from the hot sun, and must be shaded. A lattice work of laths or other slats is best; a good substitute is to stick leafy branches all over the bed. day's delay in killing them greatly increases the task. Thinning the fruit is especially neoessary on young trees disposed to overbear. Removing half or more of the crop to be maraeted is found to pay in the increased prioe of better fruit.?Agriculturist. An Honest Convict At Des Moines, Iowa; a few months ago, in a moment of passion, a youDg man of upright character, named Morris Spangler, killed a mate with whom he had hitherto been on friendly terms. It was believed there were extenuating circumstances which would prevent a verdict against him, but he was oonvicted, and sentenced to the penitentiary for two years. He asked leave of the sheriff to visit his parents, who lived a few miles from the city, promising to return so as to go with the other prisoners on the day when they were to be removed. The sheriff accepted his promise. He went home, and bade all his friends and schoolmates farewell, leaving with them various keepsakes, gathered together hi3 school books, and returned promptly, and was conveved to prison. He took his books, saying he should make a man of himself while he wm there A Soowslide in the Sierras. The following piece of vivid description is taken from the Angnst installment of the story in St, Nicholas,'entitled. "The Boy Immigrants." Mont, one of th-3 boy immigrants, has been to the nearest trading post, and is on his way homeward with the supplies which he has purchased strapped to the back of his hoise Jim. Beyond this, the extract needs no explanation : "When Mont resumed his journey next day, the air was raw and chilly; a slate colored cloud closed over the foothills, and a mild but exasperating drizzle pervaded the plain as he left it and begun to ascend the undulations which here seem like a grounds well, and, higher up, break into the tumultuous waves of the Sierra.. Mont pushed on impatiently, riding when the trml ^vas easy, and leading his loaded steed where the way was steep and rough. Mont grew feverisl: and apprehensive as he saw the sno* beginning to fall heavily, while he wa* yet only on his second day from Nye'f ranch. And when he camped that nigh! in tho manzanita bushes, it was witL great difficulty that he could kindle i tire. But he found a partly screenec spot, where the slow sifted lightly in, and he could camp in comparative com fort. Jim was relieved of his load anc tied in a clump of trees which sheltered him; and Mont slept as best he could and this was not sleepiDg well. His feel were sore with the cliating of a rougl pair of new boots, put on when he left the trading post, and now soaked witl meltiDg snow. Next day, after Jim had browsed among the bushes, and Mont had swal lowed a little hot coffee, they struggled on together, though the horse was nov obliged to wade in a deep mass of snow and Mont desperately kept up by hi: side. Passing laboriously through the rount valley where he had made his first niglit'i camp, Mont entered the rocky jaws o Scotchman's valley. The day was wel advanced, but the sky was dark witl storm. Overhead, the air was thick aj with a drifting whirl of snow. Th< black-green trees by the trail were hal hidden and loaded with the snow. A1 trace of the route had vanished from th< ground, and only a few landmarks which Mont's practiced eye had noted a he rode down the trail, served to shov the way in which he should go. Then was the high, steep southern wall of th< caynon, and there were the cabins o] the bench below the upper edge. Poo Mont noted in the blinding storm th< blue smoke curling from the chimney of the cabins, and he longed to be b; the cheerful fireside which he picture! to himself was within. Like shower of feathers, moist and large, the flake; fell, and fell continually. Mont's fee . were wet and sere and lame. Once anc again, he paused in his struggles anc eyod the dismal sight around him, hal wondering if he should ever get through The hapless horse panted beneath hi; burden, groaning as his master draggec him on through the drifts. Once, Mont with numb fingers, untied the thong; that bound part of the load ; then, pas sionately crying aloud; "No! no! ! can't lose these provisions I" he made them fast again and labored onward. He was now well up the caynon. Jus opposite him were the cabins, and, a he looked up at them, the air began t< clear. The snow fell only in scatterec flakes, and the clouds showed signs o: breaking away. Before him, however the way looked even more hopeless thai when it had been concealed by the fall ing storm. Behind, a few ragged, fad ing tracks showed where man and hor& had struggled on in the drift. Suddenly, a low and ;ar-off moai broke on the utter stillness of the air Mont, scared and half delirious with ex citement and fatigue, looked up to ware naiHhem wall of the defile. Til' mountain top seemed to be unloose* and falling over into the valley. Tin whole side of the ridge appeared broke] off, and as it glided swiftly down Mon noted, with fascinated minuteness o observation, that a broad brown furro\ showt d behind it where the earth wa laid bare. Down rushes the mighty avalanche. The whole defile seemed t< shut up like the cover of a book. In i twinkling the three poor little cabin were wiped out as with a wet sponge The pallid mass swept on with a roar its huge arms flying up toward th< skies. It was not so much a wall c snow as a resistless torrent, broad an* deep. The young man stood still, hi heart ceased to beat; yet he stood an* gazed, unable to flee, as the avalanch thunder nl down from bench to bench struck the bottom of the canyon, an* spread out in a confused mass of white ness. In an iri&tant, horse and mai vanished in a waste of snow. The nar row valley was filled, and only here an* there, where an uprooted tree or a frag ment of a wrecked cabin showed abov the surface, was there anything to brea] the utter desolation. > Watermelons. Mr. < eorge K. Mciiee writes as ioj lows: 44 We do not market more thai one-third of the melons that we can pre duoe, the balance being virtually wasted It is with a view to utalizing thus waste* crop that I request the subject con tinned." To tills, the Maryland Farmer re plies: There has been sojjlittle done ii this direction, and so little experien? had, that we can only give our owi operations. We peeled off the rind took out the seeds, and then crushe* the melons in a cider press, squeezinj out the juice; then boiled and evapor ated it, in the same way as we do th* sap of maple or the juice of the sor ghum, and each operator will kno\ when he has boiled it to the consistenc or thickness desired; and then it shoul< be stirred in shallow pans?like milk pans?c rer a gentle heat, until it be comes granulated, or 44 sugared off," a they say in the maple sugar works when sjrup is converted to sugar. W* can give our readers another useful hin for utilizing their suplus watermelous It is this : Last year we saw some Yir ginia farmers feed watermelons to thei milch cows, when they came up at night with very good effect, by increasing th quantity and improving the quality o their milk. In other instances we hav seen the good results of feeding cow sound watermelons; after standing ii the stall or yard over night, they ea melons with avidity in the morning.

Three brothers, named Charles, Albert and Adiff Thielhausen, residing in Newark, N.

ONE OF CUSTER'S MEN. On the Eve of the Mnmacre he I'onfriKi U a .Herder Committed Fourteen Ycare Before. The Nashville Banner says : On onf of the principal streets of this city stands a commodious brick residence, of nc mean pretensions. Its external appearance is apt to create a favorable impres sion upon the minds of even a casual ob server. The brush of the painter being brought into requisition at times, no ont can complain of any neglect in that respect. The gravoled walks are lined with beautiful flowers and choice plants, which prove very attractive to the passer-by. There is an east wing to the house, and but few persons are cogni zant of the terrible tragedy which wat enacted in one of the rooms contained in it during the war. No allusion to il has ever been mado by the public prints, nor would be now, had not the circum stances justified it. Fourteen years ago there resided 11 the heuse alluded to a young man o, twenty-three, a relative of the occupant He was of a jovial, reckless nature, anc upon returning from college was induoec to associate with several young men whose characters were not above th< breath of reproach.

But as he had spent hi ' last dollar that evening he could see n< other way by which to obtain the requi I site financial assistance than to rob hi > father. This he was at first loath to do ' but being determined to avoid the dis \ grace incident to his arrest, he walko< ) into the room adjoining his, where hi > father slept Wrapped in sleep, his pa . rent was unaware of the crime his soi ' was committing, by opening a small saf ! which stood in the apartment I But sin is found out sooner or later - and when a female slave heard footstep 1 softly stealing in the oorridor up stairs . she resolved to discover the robber an< frustrate his plans if possible.
