FAM AND GARDEN. WBICI SHALL IT BE CATTLE OR GRAIN.-Both. A mixed husbandry;1s safest for the masses. The South has sufiered from scarcity of meat and Milk, and plethora of corn and cotton. Many a Minnesota farmer has helped to feed the East and England, while he has been destitute of milk for his coffee, or butter for his superabundant bread. It has been rapeatedly shown that those countries which produco corn and cattle most largely, boast a higher land valuation than the great wheat countries. It Is not only in In diana and Illinois, butin the new State of Iowa as well, where spring wheat has ever been a specialty. Taking a broad view of the future requirements for meat and bread, we see that it Is the policy of all nations (Great Britian alone excepted) to produce their bread at home. They dare not risk depend ence in so vital a matter. If a bail har vest makes a small defleiency, It can probably be made goot; i very abund ant harvest may give a small surplus. Meat is less bulky and iwill better bear the expense of transportation; so the use of meat by European nations i in creasing, and the price has steadily in creased #iuring the past 30 years. On the contrary, wheat., with temporary fluctuations, Is no higher than in the long ago. James Gaird says the cost of bread in England was tart.hing per pound both in 1770 and 1878, whtile meat advanced front three and one half to nilne pence In the saue time, and from five to nine pence between 1850 and 1878. The recent and tiunpre cedented loitigin demand for wheat, Is the result, il part, of a series of extra ordinary crop failures, whicb. will not peimanently continue. The enlarged demsnd for menat, is in far higher de gree the Iesult of causes inore ptrinaii ent inl their operation. 'lie outlook for meat is, therefore, better than for grain. Yet, both will be required as population increases, in rapiuly enlarg Ing quantitics.

THE HOUSEHOLD. IN many cases of disordered stomach a teaspoonful of salt is a certain cure. In the violent internal aching termed conlie,add a teaspoonful of salt to a pint of cold water, drink it and go to bed; it is one of the speediest and best reme dies known. The saie will revive a person who seems alimost dead fron re celving a fall. in 'in apoplectic fit, no time should be lost in pouring down salt water, or sponging the head with cold water until the senses return, when salt will completely restoro the patient from his lethargy. In a lit, the feet should be placed in warn wa ter with mustard add and logs briskly rubbed, all bandages removed from the neck, and a cool apartment procure if possible. In many cases of bleeding at the lungs when other remedies fall, Dr. Rusli found that two teaspoonfuls of salt completely stayed the blood. In the case of the bite of a mad dog, wash the part with a strong brine for an hour, then bind on soine salt with a rag. In toothache, warm salt water held to the part and renowet two or three times will rolleve in most cases. If tho teeth be covered with tartar, wash twice a day with salt and water.

Suo-r is a farmer, but he I a man who can't be got ahead of. Re cently he purchased a farm and put up new buildings. Tien he sent for a lightning-rod agent, and said: "You put up somue rods on my house. Put up rods that will be seen a quarter of a-mile up the road." He was obeyed. 'T hen ie sent for a wind-mill man,and wdered a wind-inlll put up on a knoll orhere it could be seen for a mile in all directions. It wasn't used for any thing, but, it was there. Then he or dered a patent punip put up in the front yard. Ills attention was called to the fact that there was no well from which to piump water, but It didn't make any difference; the pump was put uip. Next he had four weather vanes put upon his barn, thou? % folks told him that only one was needed. Then ho had an open shed built along beside the road, and filled it with all sorts of agricultural implements. Last ly, he had a sign, whflh said, "The folks in this house can't read," painted and put tip over his gate. People thought the old man insane, and num erous questions were asked him to as certain the reasons ior the extraordi nary moves. "Do you believe In lightning rods?" "No.' "Do you falicy wind-mills ?" "No." "Do you regart punipi as ornaments?" "No."' "'Have you special fancy for seeing weather vanes?" "No." '"'Then what have you gone so extensively Into these things for?" "Well, I calculate to pass the rest of' my life oti this place, and, as I value peace and quiet, I've tried to get everythilg an ag3ent can sell me, for i'm bound to heatd 'em oil' in sone way, and, as I shall keep a cotiile of eross dogs, I reckon I can do it.''

Never olace the belt on a pully in motion;tlways place it on the loose pully ot the pully at rest; then run it on the pilly in motion. if the belt Is very heivy, and the pulleys run at a very higi rate of speed, it 'a advisable to slack on the speed of the engine ; but when .th is impracticable or incon venient, care must be taken to mount the belt n the exact face. The person engaged in so doing must have a firm footing nd prevent his clothes from getting I contact either with the belt or pully Where the belt Is heavy and the loca on such that It Is Impossible to get a wlid footing and exert strength in runn ig on the belt, it is best to stop the angine and mount the belt on the pull; as far as possible.

Another inproyemenit in barrel hoop consists of forming them of wire bent iuto corrugations, so that the shape is serpentine; a hoop of this kind, when driven upnm a dry barrel or tub, comn pressing Wad holding the btaves tight ly ttgether, like the ordinary stave hop, having also elasticity or spring enough to stretch when the staves expand by moisture, returning to Its former posi tion, when they again become dry and skrink. In this way the hoops adapt themlseClves to LIe expansion and con traction of the barrel, so that the trouble ot loose or bursting hoops is avoided, By forming the corrugations to rest 11atwise against the staves no obstruction is offered to the rolling of barrels, while a itch greater amount of friction surface is brought to bear upon the staves, increasing their- hold hig power.
