.POIsONs IN 'FAnMEnS' IANI)s.-The
great increase, during the past thirty
years in the variety and number of in
sects which destroy the farmer's crops
has made it necessary, for piurposes of
defdhce, to purchase and have upon
the prelplses some very active poison
ous agonts, mineral and vegetable.
Among these may be named Paris
green, for destroying the l>otato beetle;
hellebore powtier, for the currant
worms, rose bugs, et,c.; and strychnine,
1br crows, black-birds, etc., in corn
fields. These comprise some of the
most potent and deadly poisons known
to science. By far the Itost dangerous
is Paris green, because it has come into
such general use that it is found in al
most every farmhouse In the country.
Now, it is a well-known' principle in
human conduct that faumiliarity with
danger engenders lid iference, care
lesness, and negligence, and conse
quently, however timid and cautious
one may be in the first handling of
dangerous implements or agents, in the
course of tirne extraordinary safeguards
are not thought of, and great reckless
ness succeeds to extreme caution. We
were impressed with this fact by for
tunately happening to observe a farmer
in the hurry of haying time, in J uly,
seize a wooden stirrer, which had been
used to mix Paris greenwith Ilour, and
thrust it into a stone pitcher contain
ing oatmeal and water, designed for
the men in the field. Of course the
peril was instantly pointed out, the
beverage was thrown away, and per
haps his life was saved. It was an in
cident well calculated to create a feel
, of apprehension in regard to the
employment of this poisoi by farmers.
It was kept in a tool house, where also
was the package of oatmeal, and here
the mixing of the poison and the bever
ago took place. The stirrer, covered
with the green powder. was the Imple
Im;t nearest at hand, and it was
thouhtlessiy seized in the hurry of the
moment, All these conditions'and cir
cumstances shoiw great carelessness,
but it is greater than that shown by
others, in diflerent ways? We feat
not. In the first place, no poisonous
substances should be stored on farm
premises, unless it be in an unused cel
lar or outlbuilding. i is better to make
a tight box, large enough to hold all
the poisons needed to be kept on hand,
together with dredging boxes, stirrers,
etc., and place this in a secure place
away from tools, food and animals.
Again, in using Paris green in gardens,
care must be observed that no peas,
beans or other vegetables, are in close
proximity to the potatoes, as the pow
der might fall or be blow n upon them,
and thus reach the dining-table adtt
cause mischief. These poisons are of
immense benefit to farmers.
PACKING E,os.-It is 1io uncommon
occurrence in cities to see a grocer un
packing eggs, many of which have
been broken, thus disfiguring inany
others. Tlhis is a matter10 which ihose
who are about sel,ding eggs long dis
tances to market should give the clos
est attention, Never use chat'. Oats
are good, but rather costly. Fine cut
hay or straw are tile. best and most
'tvailable materials and should always
be sweet and (ry. Put three inches of
this at the bottom of the package. then
I layer of eggs with the end toward
the side of the package, but not touch
ing the side by an inch or more; then
put on several incites of packing, pres
sing down gently with a follower ; re
move all but an inch in depth of the
packing and put in another layer of
eggs in the same wav as the first, tak
ing care thtat.tne packling is pressed be
tweeni the ends of the eggs and the
side of the package, ad so continue
until tile last layer is in, which should
*7 be covered with at least two incheb of'
packinig and an inch of hauy, and the
cover of thes package pressed downa
closely. Eggs packed in this way can
be transported lonmg dIistanes without
injury.
SQUAsIuEs Foin 1INTEni UsE,--At pre
sont there are few nnoe prIofilable crops
than squashes. The 11lubbard and oth
er long-keeping varieties may be p)re
served with litt.le diflculty till the ap
p)roaich of spring. From this timle till
appearance of early vegetables there is
an extensive demand for them at good
prices. Barked wvinter squash 18 an ex..

They also make line puddings and 1)10s.
D)uring the past fewv years there has
beeni quite a demani- for squashes in tile
east, City bakers use large quantit-ies
of them for making l)ies. They are ex
cel lent for feeding poultry during the
winter. Late squashes may be raised
to good advantage in connection with
early sweet corn or p)eas. 'lThe latter
wvill be out of the way -bef'ore the vines
of the former have mladlemuchi growthl.
Four or flve rows of corn, peCas, or car
ly vegetables may be raised between
two rows of equashes. in gathering
squashes to keep .over' the wInter a
sinall portioni of the vIne should be cut
off' wish .the stemi. Great carie should
be taken to prevent bruising them.
They may be kept in an unoccupied
room in the house, beneath whiceh taere
is a fire, or in a dIry cellar'. T1hey
should be examinedl occasionally to as
- certain if any of thiem show marks of
decay. Those that commence to rot
can be cut in siices and dried, stewed
and sliced in cakea, or they may be

FRITTERS.-Peel and core three large
apples; then out them across in slices
rather less thani half an inch thick ; put
them in a flat dish with half a tuurbler
of brandy or sherry, and strew plenty
of powdered sugar over them, Let
them remain covered for a couple of
hours, then take each piece separately,
tlip it in batter so that it is well cover
ed with it, and fry a golden color in
plenty of hot lard. Lay the fritters in
frout of the fire, and when all are done
pile them up on a napkin, shake plenty
of powdered loaf sugar over them, and
serve. A very delicate batter is made
thus: Beat up one tablespoonful of
brandy, one of pure, fresh olive oil and
a little cold water, with the yolk of
one egg; add a pinch of salt, then work
in sufficlent flour to make, with the ad
dlition of more water as much batter as
will be wanted. it should be of the
conslstency of thick cream. Jdst be
fore using, whisk the whites of two
eggs to a froth and mix then lightly
but effectually with the batter.
To BOIIn RIcE SAVANNAH FASHION.
Take one pound of rice and pick it over
thoroughly. Put on the fire in a por
celain or tin-lined pot, three quarts of
water, with two even tablespoonfuls of
salt. Let the water come to a boil.
Wash the rice in three waters. Throw
the rice in the water when it is at the
full boll, and boil vapidly twenty nin
utfs, Put the cover on and drain the
water entirely off. Cover the pot, shake
well, and put on the back of the stove,
where it is not too hot, for fifteen min
utes. This evaporates any of the water.
Shake the rice into the dish you wish
to serve it In. Never use a spoon.
Rice should never be glutinous.
BErR illvs.-Takc two quarts of flour
and mix with it it large cup of soft
sponge, Taised very light; add a cup of
sugar, a little salt and two eggs, with
halt a cup of melted butter; mix to a
soft dough with warm milk; stone a
large cup of raisi'is, wash them int
boiling water; when the dough is very
light roll It out very thin, and cut into
half inch strips-halfa yard long; stick
the raisins into the strips alternately;
theu roll up like a bee hive. Let them
rise oni a flat tin until quite light, and
bake quickly in it hot oven.
ALIrXANDER ['UDDING.-Have ready
a dish of stewed apples, sweetened' and
se'Aoned With lemon peel. Put a layer
of bread crumbs on the bottom of your
baking dish, with bits of butter ming
led, ihinit a layer of apples. Continue
In this way until the di-il is evenly 1lil
ed Bake long enough to allow the
butter to be well melted. When it is
b'rowned, take off, and soften the sur
face with some of the syrup of the ap
ples, left out for the purpose. Beat up
the whites of six eggs, sweeten and
season wil vanilla. Spread this over
the pudding and let it brown in the
oven. It is very nice eaten hot or cold,
according to fancy, with) cream.
To BaON'zE PLASTER STATUI:s.-In
bronzing plaster statues, the powder is
dusted over the statue while It is yet
sticky from a coat of tturpentine varn
ish. The best way is first to give a few
coats of alehohle shellae varnish, and
then the coating of turpentine varnish,
as otherwise the latter is too quickly
olsorbed. Let it stand till halft dry
and sticky, and then dust over any
color of bronze-powder to suit the ease.

J. E. Ditson & Co.
Four years ago Messrs. J. E. 1)itson
Co., the Piladiephia branch ;f the
universally known house of Oliver
)itson & Co., of Boston, the mast ox
tensive music publishers in the United
States, purchased and succeeded to the
business of Messrs. Lee & Walker, at
that time the largest publisllers south
of Nc w York. Messrs. J. E. Ditson
& (Co., have continued at the same 1o
cation (N'). 922 Chestnut street), and
so rapid has been the growth of their
business that they have recently aug
muented their stock by the purchase of
the catalogue of G. Andre &- Co. (which
alone comprises 4800 music plates), and
whose old place of business, No. 12t28
Chestnut st.revt, will be, January 1st,
the base of operations of Messrs. 1)itson
& Co. Alterations to meet the require
ments of their vast business are now in
progress, and all the indications poiut
to Its becoming one of the most attrac
tive stores on Chestnut street. To
briefly outline the scope of the altera
tions, we will state that the llrst floor
will be devoted to their retail trade;
the basement, to book stock; the see
o11d story, to the pliano departrnent
(where their present gratifyingly
steady business in selling and renting
new and second-hannd plianos will doubt
less be amplified) ; the thlrd story, to
their surplus stock. The whole busi
ness will be conducted in the rear half
of the basement and first floor. The

Amerieanl music and musical nerchan
dise generally, carries with it an ob
vious significance.
A room warmed by an open fire is
pleatsatnter than a room warmed by hot
water pipes. A warm body radiates
heat to a colder body near to it. The
heat rays from a llame or from Incanh
descent matter pass through the air
without heating it.; they warm the solid
bodies upon which they impinge, and
these warm the air. Where the source
of heat in a room consists of hot-water
pipes, or low-pressure steam-pipes, the
air is lirst warmeti, and imparts its kdat
to the walls. The air is thus warmer
than' the walls. When a room is
warmed by an open lire, Oi the other
hand, the warming ia effected -by the
radiant heat fron the ftre, which pass
es throught the air without sensibly
warming it; the radiant heat warms
the walls and furniture, and these iml
part their heat to the air. Therefore
the walls in this case are warmer than
the air. Cun3'tluentLy, in two roo.n1s
one wamned by an olpen fire and the
other by hot water-plius, and with air
at ttie same temperature in both rooms,
the walls In the room heated by hot
water-pipes would be some degrees
colder than the air in the room, and
therefore colder than the walls of a room
heat.d by an open fire; and these coder
walls would there: ore abstract heat from
the occupants by rattiation more rapidly
than would be the case in a room ilcat
ed by an open fire. And to oring the
walls in tile room heated with hot
water-pipes to the same temperature its
the walls in the room heated by the
open fire would requirs the air of the
room to be heated to an amount beyond
that neecessariy for comfort, and, tllere
fore, to a greater amount than is desir
able. Besides theoretical knowledge,
it is of essential imrlporhtlnce thAt the
sanitary arehi.ect, builder, or engineer

knowledge of the subject. lie should

lies a remedy; Ithat t res step by sp---by
ogrees-the body wlh has been slowly at
Rcked and weakened b an insidious disease,

ur gratisude. )r. Railway has furnished man
ind with that wonderful remedy, Radway's

irough long days and long nights, owo him

FALSE AND TRUE.
We extract from )r. Radwgy's "Treatise or
lsease and Its Cure," as follows:
List of Diseases Unred by
R.dway's Sarsaparillia Resolvent,
Chronic Skin Diseases, Caries of the Bone
[umors in the Blood, Scrofulous Die so, l Bad
r unnatural IlaUlt of Body, Syphilis and Vene
oal, Fever Sores. Chronic or Old Ulcers, Salt
theum, Iiekote, White Swelling, Scala Ioad,
terino Aifections, Cankers Glamular Swell
ags, Nodes. Wasi.lng and Decay of the Body,
imples and llotcies. Tumors, )yspeoNia, Kid
ey and Bladder Disoasos, Chronic lth ulnatismn
ud (Iout. (onsumtption, (Ir ivel and Calculous
teposlts, and varlot,es oft he above complaints
m which sometimos are given specious names.
We assert that there Is no known remedy that
ossesses the curative power over these dis
itxes that ItADWAY's REsoI.VENT furnishes. It
urea, step by s,ep. surely. from the founda
[on, and restores the injured pat tt to their
ound condition. The wi sten or thIe body
re stopped and heasthy blood is sup.
lied to the ,ytstuna, from which new ma
"rIal 1s formed. ius is the flst, co.rectivo
awer of RADwAT'S REsoLVrN'P. In eases where
te system has been Falivated and Mercury,
,uicksilver, Corrosive Sublimate have accumu
tted and become deposit ed in the bones, joints
to., causing caries or the hones, rickeis. slnal
Lrvatures, contortions, white swehlng 4, varl
se veins, ate., the SAusAPARIUJ.iAN will resolve
way those deposits an i exterminate the virus
the disease from the systin.
If those who are tihking these medicines for
to cure of Chronic, Scr.,fulous or Syphilitic dis
tses, however slow mny b's the cure "teel bet.
ir," and find their gonoral health improving,
iir flesh and weight increasing, or even keep.
tg its own is a sure sign that tho cure is pro
ressing. in those diseases the patient, either
its better or worse-the virus of the disease
not inactive; if not arrested and driven from
10 blood it will spread and continue to under
iine the constitution. As soon as the RASA
tRILLIAN mnakes the pat lent "feel bei ter," every
our you will grow better and increase in health,
rengt,h and flesh.
