FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD. The Household. Keep bread in a tin-oovered box, and it will keep fresh and good longer than if left exposed to the air. Keep cheese in a cool, dry place, and : . after it is cat, wrap it in a linen cloth, : and keep it a tight tin box. i Raisens should not be bought in large ?uontitie8, as they are injured by time, t is best to buy the small ?>oxee. After smoked beef or hams are cut, uiuig mom iu a coarse uaen Dag m tlio f cellar, and tie it ap to keep oat flies. Oake also should be kept in a tight tin ] box. Tin boxes made with covers like i trunks, with handles at the ends, aro | best for bread and cake. , Codfish is improved by changing it, 1 once in a while, back and forth from i garret to cellar. Some dislike to have it < in the house anywhere. All salted provision must be watched, ' and kept under the briue. When the 1 brine looks bloody, or smells badly, it ' must be scalded, and more salt put to it, < and poured over the meat. 1 Soda should be bought iu small quanti- 1 ties, then powdered, sifted, and kept tight corked in a large-month glass bottle. It * grows damp if exposed to the air, and < then can not be used properly. * The most easy way of keeping hams J perfectly is to wrap and tie them in pa per, iuiu pacK tnem in Doxee or barrels with ashes. The ashes most All all interstices, bnt must not tonch the hams, i as it absorbs the fat. It keeps them 1 sweet, and protects from all kinds of inseots. Cream tartar, citric and tartaric acids, bicarbonate of soda, and essences should be kept in corked glass jars. Sol volatile must be kept in a large-mouth bottle, with a ground glass stopper to make it air-tight. Use cold water in dissolving it. It must be powdered. Coffee it is best to buy by the bag, as it improves by keeping. Let it hang in a bog in a dry place, and it loses its rank smell and taste. It is poor oconomy to buy ground coffee, as it often has other arbdes mixed, and loses flavor by keeping after it is ground.?Household. A Htimp Pntlrr. The most effective stump puller is readily made by any mechanic. It consists of a very strong lever made of tough timber, strengthened with iron plates where the heaviest strain will come. The lever should lie sixteen or eighteen < feet long. A very strong clevis is fitted t about six inches from the end, and a , second a foot from the first. These clevises are doublo, so that they can be used on each side of the lever. Two ( strong chains, twelve to twenty feet long, are procured, and two smaller ones about eight feet long. The longest chain is passed around a large stump, and hooked on to the second clevis. A ohain is then passed around the nearest stump and hooked on to the end clevis, 1 the ohains being drawn as tightly as possible, and the lever being between the two stumps. A-team of oxen, or steady horses, is hitched to a clevis at the free extremity of the lever, which is drawn s far as possible. The weaker of the two stamps is thus started. One of the short chains, haying a hook at each end, is then hooked on to the end clevis, and to the chain attached to the first stomp ; -# the other short chain, similarly provided with hooks, is hooked from the second aoleyis to the chain from the first stomp. The team is then torned about, and the lever is drawn back again to where it was first started from, thus making a further 1 haul upon the stomp. Then the loose are hooked ?p tight, the team tuned aboot, and the lever drawn forward once more as far as it will go. The short chains are hooked tight and the team again torned. In this manner, a few inohes at a time, the stomp is torn oot of its place. This machine ean be made bv any wagonmpker or blacksmith, and can be carried anywhere. The only objection is that one stjimp will be left in every thirty or forty feet, becanse there will be nothing left to hitch on to to draw it out Bat a few ' ounces of blasting powder and a longhandled two-inch anger will serve to get rid of these. Stomps three feet in diameter may thus be drawn oot, and one or two acres a day be cleared with a good team and two men. The Gardlai, or Hair Worm. We have a habit, says a correspondent, of keeping a pail of filtered water with ioe in it, in a cool plaoe at the head of the cellar stain. Before going to bed my son took a dipper of water from the pail and discovered a cricket in it, and, , on farther examination, something like the hair snake spoken of, in the bottom of the dipper, and one passing away from the body of the crick at, which was soon liberated, and was six or seven inches long and very lively, and with a distinguishable head and tail. The dipper was set one side, and "in the morning the cricket was still there, and five other snakes four to six inches long and very lively, three having appeared during the night. That they came from the body of the cricket there can be no mistake, the water being perfectly pure. Upon consulting the books we find that Profs?or Nicholson calls them the Gordiaosa or bair worm. They are threadlike parasites, which in their earlier staff? of existenoe inhabit the bodies of various insects, chiefly beetles and grasshoppers. They posse? a month and alimentary canal, bat are not provided with a distinct anal aperture. The hat*? are distinct, and leave the bodies which they infest, in order to breed. Owitol Ksrly Ptaini. T. B., in the TXmea, says i " I can give some of ycror readers a valuable hint on growing early potatoes, pratioed tar myself in the West. It is as follows: nJu some green sod, lay it in a warm collar, grass down; slit potatoes, lay thorn eyes downward on the mold in a alight impression on the aod, closely to- i gather, leaving room to cut out with a i knife the pieee of sod on which each a is placed before transplanting them the garden. Bogulate the time so as not to allow the hud to be over two Inohaa long at the time of transplanting, laaving the top of the bod exposed to the air, and covering over with manure to protect them from frost, oseasionally Justing a little vegetable soil with the hud around each vine." u county treasurer.

A correspondent of the Troy Times thus gosssips of Stanley, the Amoan ex- , Elorer's, haps and mishaps in love : It is ] at little over a year ago that Stanley y and I were taking lunch together. 1 Stanley had come over the water for two ( purposes?one of them to see his sweet- , heart, and the other to arrange for the < expedition to the Victoria Niyanza. i Stanley was not, however, too much in- 1 terested in Africa. His life, he told me, j was really bound up in a certain young , lady dwelling in New York, whose i picture he showed me, whose character ? he described to me, and whoso graces 1 and social position captivated his ambitious eye. In a year's time Stanley j will return from Africa (if he live) and i marry one of the wealthiest and most 1 beautiful ladies in New York. She is ] tall and slender, a brunette, twenty years , of age, rather wordly, not without an t unlimited amount of gush in her no- i tare. Stanley is on odd fellow withal. 11 His love affairs are known far and wide, | and no one has evor given them greater , publicity than Stanley. While Mr. t Francis wan minister to Greece I left * Athens to visit Lyria, one of the Ionian isles. I was nicely entertained there, and the American consul, whose name I J forget, asked me if I wanted to see } Stanley's old flame. I said "Yes!" J We paid a visit to the young lady, who , was of Greek extraction. She was c pretty enough, but no one but Stanley 1 would ever have thought of her as a 1 conjugal partner. Stanley was acoepted ? as her suitor, and Anally, when the family came to make inquiries about c his family, fortune, etc., Stanley I grew indignant, and said he did not ? want to buy a wife, that he could get a ^ handsome one in Constantinople for $1,000. Stanley's loves, however, date further back than the Cretan insurroc- c tion. Shortly after our war closed he > found himself in Omaha. It was about c this time that lie f?ll in lmra mU - ' pretty young girl. But Stanley she could not and did not admire, and finally Stanley offered to settle upon her a $10,000 if she would marry him. She y declined and married according to her Jl choioe, which was unhappy. ? A Farmer's Fat Cattle. Frauklin county, Mass., has long v been famous for its fat cattle, but the 11 forty-seven head now standing in the ' stables of George W. Jones at Deerfield u go a little ahead of anything yet seen " m the oounty. They are all Dnrhams, *' great fellows so large they can hardly j, move themselves, the heaviest weighing d 4,600 pounds, the next 5,400, and the ti whole averaging over 4,000 per yoke T They are fed eight quarts a day each ^ of meal and bran, and all the bay they ? want; water is supplied to their man- p gers in pipes. Those now in stall' will ti be taken to Boston about Christmas, when Mr. Jones will stock up for the r winter, his usual supply being eighty or ninety cattle, six or seven hundred , sheep, and about a dozen horses. Last ( year he cut about three hundred and fifty tons of hay, all of which he fed out, and some seventy-five tons more. ? The cattle are kept in a sub-basement of t the barn, which to be well vAntilnM during the winter, else it would become ' oppressively warm from the number of cattle contained there. The sheep are kept on the floor above. Mr. Jones i puts upon his own land, which liesalong j the west bank of the Connecticut river j for half a mile, all the manure from his stook, raising twelve or fourteen acres of j heavy tobaooo every year, for which he < gets prioes considerably above that paid 1 for tobaooo grown by patent fertilizers, ^ In fact, he is one farmer who has found out how to " make farming pay." j ] < A Fortunate Deliverance. < The Heading (Pa.) 1Eagle has thefol- > lowing : A year ago Annie Merkel, aged j fourteen years, daughter of John Mer- i kel, then residing at Leesport, was 1 crocheting and had in her mouth a shawl pin one and three-fourth inches in length, with a large black head, which , waa accidentally inspired into her windpipe, and passed down into her lungs. ] A physician was immediately sent for, but he oould not recover it. The presence of the pin caused inflammation and a chronic cough, with expectoration of pus and blood, and it was feared she had gone into a decline with consumption of the lungs. The oough and pain in the lungs were specially severe during the past month. On* evening recently she attended church with her parents, and after returning home and retiring to bed she wss attacked with a coughing spell which nearly oaused suffocation, when suddenly a hard subetanoe flew out of hef mouth and fell on the floor. It was heard to fall, and search was made for it. It proved to be about one-third of the shawl-pin, with the head attached. Tf? Jvml t." * * w uiuiumo ?uumor oougning j spell brought up the point of the pin. < Both pieoea show that the pin oorroded J through, and thus forming two pieoes during the time it was deposited in the i lungs. Miss Merkel rested very wsll j during the night and is in very good c spirits. There is joy and genuine heart- , felt thankagivingin Mr. MarkeTs family, i I 1 John as a Prophet. The Virginia (Nov.) Enterprise of a late dato says : About a month sinoe a lady in this oity died. As her funeral procession was passing a oertain house i the Chinese oook, who was looking at it, 1 isked the lady of the house whose funeral it was. He was properly answered, when a moment afterward ho said: "Ton sabe ? in twenty-one days she all the sameoomeback for her baby." Hie baby, who at the time was in perfect health, grew ill a few days afterward and in twenty-one days?exactly the time predicted by the heathen? iied. What gave the premonition to the Chinaman, and what is the secret of that instinct which is denied loving and anlightened beings and made plain to a rat-eater f The facts in the above are perfectly authenticated.
