AGRICULTURE. DoGs AND snEEp.-Dogs are the most expensive domestic animals kept in the country. A dog will devour more food in the course of a year than a pig, and It must necessarily be of a better quality. It will Injure more gardens, destroy more birds, -and do more mischief than any animal, for eign or domestic, wild or tame. The average dog as found in this country has more vices and fewer virtues than the town goat. In most parts of the country sheep cannot be kept with any assurance of satety on account ot the villainous i h rat ter. nd ei ormot sa u i ber of dogs. In some regions the dogs are more numerous than all the other kinds of animals put together. They are ever-present pests. They have no respect for any person or any thing. No state dog law has ever been framed that offered any protection to sheep. The legal status of a dog is no better defined than that of an Indian. It is found to be impracticable to diminish the number of dogs by imposing a tax on them. - The only dogs the Issessor finds to tax are those which do no misshief, but which are ornaments to the race. A traveler will find more dogs about the shanty of one squatter than the tax collector -wil discover ia an entire township. The dog nui sance will never be abated till there are State statutes simillar to the ordi nances of large cities, and provisions made to execute them by competent authorities. When all dogs are shot that do not weat' collars, showing that their masters have taken out licenses, the number will be diminished, Dogs wearing no collars should be regarded as wild beasts and public enemies, and bounties offered for their scalps. They are in reality more injurious than their natural cousins, the wolyes, and should be treated in the saine way. GRAPE STAKES AND TnELLIS POSTS, -Meyeral have asked how trellis posts and stakes for grapevines can be t)ro vented from decaying in the ground. Of course the better plan is to use wood of a durable kind. If locust Posts cannot be had, short pieces of this wood to go in the ground, and project high enough abovo the sur face to allow upaights of more per. ishable wood to be spiked to them wil answer. Chestnut in some l8 nls lasts well, and the enduring quality of Catalpa will recomiend that for such uses. Among the methods of preservi ing perishable wood, our experience extendssonly to two, namely, through charring the lower ends, and to soak ing them in a strong solution of Blue Vitriol. (Sulphate of Copperas ) A pound of this ia two quarts of water makes a saturated solution or nearly so. The ends of the posts are soaked in this until it has well penetrated. for small pine stakes we once followed a German method: After they had been well soaked in the blue vitriol solution and dried, they were placed in lime water ; over night. and whel again dried were ready for use. The stakes thus treated lasted well for two seasons, when they were no long er needed. EWES in ]amb should, as far as practicable, be fed and sheltered sep arately from the non-breeding animals, ,a:,the crowding and more rapid move *ments of the latter 'are apt to result injuriously, while such separation makes more convenient certain little attentions to which breeding ewes are entitled as the yearning season ap * proochecs, ani which may be profita bly accorded to them. Adv intage will be found in subdivision of tile several ages and sexes Into as many * smaller lots as circumstances will ad mit of, as such course lessens .thle liability to crowding and over-feeding of the stronger animals at I he expenise of the weaker ones. It also brmngs each anlimal more directly under tilie eye of the attendant, whIo will the more readily detect tile first symnp teols of deviating from tile desired thrift. I'IPnoIITION OF CRECAM IN MILK. Th'e first flth p)oi of milk from the cow contains about one-twentieth part of cream i tile second fifth, one twelfth; and the last 111th, OneL-sixth. How imp~lortanlt theni to get tile last and( richest drop, even if it wvere not true that cows arfe quiickly dried up by a sloyenlly practice of leaving al smiall piortonl ill the udder. Cows will con tinlue to give a dow of milk at al 1much1 longer period when milked dry. Farm era, it M ill be seen, receive a double benellt by such a course. First, there is more er-Camin ltile miilk, and( se3cond, tile now wvill 'oniniue loniger, two re quisites in ll i dairy coiustries.

THE paper lamp-shades so fashion. able just now can be made very easily. Fold a sheet of tissue paper in the center, forming a half square; then fold again into a quarter square,. then into an eighth. Continue folding in this way as long as possible, always folding from the center. Holding the thick part firmly in one hand, dratw it throuzrh the other till the paper is thoroughly creased; then partly un fold and draw it through the hand from the center to the outer edge. When it hai bacoma well creased, cut enough from the center to a'low of its slipping over the lamp-shade. MILK PUDDING.-At 9 or 10 o'clock in the morning put one tablespoonful of rice and one tablespoonful of taplocA into a three-pint ple-dish; add one tablespoonful of coarse brown sugar and a pinch of salt. Let this soak near the fire until 1. o'clock, and let it be frequently stirred. Then put very little bits of butter on the top, and put it in a moderate oven. For the first half-hour stir it often from the bottom, then leave it. At one o'clock you will have a pudding far exceed ing in richness one made with eggs, and With a delicious flavor Sage, or tapioca, or rice alone, is equally good. BLCEEDING AT AinH NosE.-The best remedy for bleeding at the nose, as given by Doctor Gleason in one of his lectures, is a vigorous motion of the jaws, as if I n the act of mastication. In the case of a child, a wad of paper should be placed in its mouth, and the child instructed to chew it hard. It is the motion of the Jaws that stops the flow of blood. This remody is so very simple that many will feel Inclined to laugh at it; but it has never - been known to fall-not even in very severe cases. POACHED Eas.-To poach eggs is an art. We want little egg-poachers for this prooess. As yet it has to be done in a plain pan, in which boiling water Is ready ; put in a little vinegar, and carefully put in the raw egg so as not to break the yolk. When the eggs have well set take them out with tihe draining slice and hold them for a minute till you put them on the but tered toast. A little pepper should be sprinkleul over them. THE "Parisian' tells of a woman who found out a way to prevent wrin kles. She squeezed out the Juie f rom the bulbs of several white lilies tnti I she had obtained about seventy gram nes of liquid, to which she added an equal quantity of the best honey, and thirty-live grammes of pure white meihled wax. These substances, being well muxed, formed a pomade, 'with which she delicately rubbed her face night and mornhing. PARsLEY Sour.-Take a piece of but ter and melt it; stir in a little 1lour and Lmnalgama!e. Add gradua ly il the wateryou want. Flavor With popper, salt and nutmeg.

It is an aq0eous solution, characterized by the presence of hydro gen and certain - camphoraceous sub-. star.c 3. With it is found another sub stances called sanitasol, also contain 1 ig peroxide of hydrogen, which poss esses a.high power of oxidation. Ao. cording to the account given of it by Mr. C. T. Kingzett, the oil promises to become very valuable for sanitary pur poses. As it has been found an effi cient agent for the tlecomposition of so stable a sub3tance as iodide of potas slum, it can hardly be doubted that It will alao effect the oxidation of any animal or vegetable substance, partit ularly those which are in course of putrefactive decomposition, It has also the proper.ty of being capable, alter having once performed its mea sure of oxidation, of forming a new amount of active peroxide of hyurogen, whici may be made available for fur ther work. Several experiments, made by Mr. Ktngzett, prove that this oil is a powerful antiseptic. .Beef put in water containing It was kept sweet during periods of 25 to 40 days; flour paste from 3) to 50 days; the whilc of eggs for 59 days; wine for 100 days. The oil is not destined to supersede the sanitas for it is too. powerful in its actilon to serve the purpose to which the aqueous solution is applied, and Is not adapted to meet the same ends, but be a valuable supplement to it. It may be added to glycerine, oils or oint mnts, when they are appled to the body in cases of infectious disease. It may he evaporated for the fumigation of rooms which have been occapied by per.ous suffering from communicable diseases, Plane surfaces, as floorings and walls, may be disinfected by wilping them with a cloth or brush which has been dipped in oil; only a small quantity of oil is necessary for this purpose, for it spreads freely. It is slowly volatile, and may be used as an aerial disinfectant or emulsion in water may be applied in great many places; and sprinkled over sawdust it may be employed as an effective deo durant. Fees of Doctors. The fee of doctors is an item that very many persons are Interested in just at present. We believe the sched ule for visits is $3.00, which would tax a man confined to his bed a year, and in need of a daily visit, over $1,000 a year for medical attendance alone I And one single bottle of Hop Bitters taken in time would save the $1,000 and all the year's sickness.-ED. It appears to be settled now, through the researches of Gustav Hansen. that It is by their antennm that insects are enabled to distinguIshed orlers. When the antennie were coated vith paraffine or removed altogether, tiles, for in stance, took no not'ce of tainted meat. But it does not follow, however, that the antennw have no other use. NATURAL petroleum, deprived of its color and disagreeable odor without distillation and the aid of acids or alka lies, Is what the Carboline is made from. As now improved and perfected it is a beautiful preparation, and per forms all that is claimed for it as a hair restorer. Prof. Riley says that kerosene or oil of any kind is sure death to insects in all stages, and the only substance with which we may hope to destroy the eggs.
