AGRIOULTURE. POTATO CuLu.--In order to hs-vo the beat succees in growing potatoes, and to secure a healtly vigorous growth and a crop free from tot, says Thorburn, it Is necessary to plant as early as the ground can be got ready. Select a rich soil, and plant in rows three feet apart, and the sets one foot in the rows. To kill the young weeds, run a light steel-tooth barrow over the field lengthwise of the rows; this will allow the crop to get the start of the weeds, besides breaking up all lumps and leveling the ground ready for the cultivator. If wood ashes and plaster can be procured, sow a good dressing over the field after the pota toes aro ip. If a very early crop Is desired, it will be necessary to sprout the potatoes before planting. Cut the potatoes into pieces of any size deslrable, and place in a warm, light room from four to six weeks before required for planting in the open ground. During this time shoots will start out strong and vigorous, so that as soon as planted they will send out roots and grow much more rapidly than those treated in the ordinary way. Another method is to place the sets in a hot-bed, two weeks before they are wanted, and then lift casef ully and set out on fresh horse dung, st) that the heat will cause them to start at once. If the Colorado potato beetle makes its appear ance, the vines must be dusted with Paris green mixed with about eighty parts of plaster, or what is better, imix the Paris green in water two tablespoonfuls to a pail, and apply with a small brush or broom, Take care to stir the mixture often, or else the Paris green will settle at the bottom. Two or three applications during the season will usually sutlico to clear off all the beetles. Kii,iixo CANADA TisITE.-A contem. porary notices two modes of destroying this weed, one of ivhich Is to put a tablespoon ful of salt on each stalk or stub, causing the plant to wilt, become dry and disappear by October. This is recommended as bet ter than the other modo, which is to cut off each plant with a Unife just below the sur face of the ground, as one does asparagus, These nodes inay answer for very small patches in gardens, but any one may easily contrast its economy in labor on a large scale on the farm, with the rapid work of turning the plants with a plow. We have destroyed niany acres in - this way, so that not a plant ever reappeared. A strong pair of horses will turn over a sod eight inches deep, and much lower than the knife in ti hand will go; and if the work is thoroughly done, ana no balks left, the plants will stay under the inverted seil for three or four weeks, uiless in very porous or light soil, which must be plowedI oftener. The only failures which we have known with this treatment was where the plowing was so imperfectly done, er so long intermitted, that straglers found their way to the light, and furnished a feeding to the roots below. Ci.iumxa PLANS.-Our farmers could easily have lots of interesting places about their homes, especially near woodlands. A pile of old stumps can be covered with creeping, twining or climbing plants, and though it brings nothing back to the purse it will often give imare pleasure than money can buy, to their wives, little ones, and friends. Many kinds of climbing plants have some curious things about them. One of the Passilloras opens its flowers, with a loud noise, hence probably itsname. The imenispermnum, or imoon seed, hasit a curious shell that partially covers the seed. It looks like half a hazel nut shell with the nut in it The ladies of the South collect them to make frames for pictures. The TePcriploca has a curLous pipe-Iike appendage to the ilower, hence it is called Dutchman's Pipe. The Loasa is coveredl with hairs that will sting like a bee's simg if touched by any tenider part of a person's body. S~m~r is a valuable fertilizer and costs but little. It is cheaper to use pure~ salt at $6 per ton than the refuse of salt works, which is mixedl with lime and magnesia salts, at $2, as a smialler qhuantity of good salt cani be used with better effect. Salt is useful on pasture and grass laud, and is especially uiseful for all root crops, cabbage anmd aspar aguia. It is also beneficial to oats. Two hundred p~ounds per acre may be uiseful. Yolrn pigs otten suiffer considerably in gettmng their teeth. T'he gumis swell, and thme irritation andi swelling oftenl spread to the jaws, cheek and the whole head. It may be curdd by~cutting thics wollen gums over the place where the second teeth are coming, or drawing the fIrst teeth with a pmair of pmncers or pliers. A iiwrIu n - -'' di a season not too hot ar' * *, .JLE for oats, barley and spring ,,, onsequenut ly they sho'ld be sown early that they may get their growths before the hot, dry weather sets in. What InfluecesCc Diycion.--There are certain substances uipon which the gas tric juice exerls no action, and( it should be remembered that, whatever goes throumg the stommachm untouched p~asses unndissolvedl through the whole of the alimentaury canal. The frequency with which such substaunces as dried currants anid apple p~ips are passed~ unialteredl is familiar enough to all. Indi gestible substances are occasionally retainedl In the stomaich, causing paini, indigestion and irritation for days and dauys together. There are many circimnstances, besides the natlure of time food, which exert an im. fluence on the process of digrestion. First and foremost among these is tihe quadity of food takeni ; for the ellicient performance of digestion the stomiach shouIld be0 fairly filled, butt not dhistended. Dr. lieaumo(nt's experiments show that a certain bulk was niecessaury for thme p~erformiance of healthy dilgestion. his fact hans long been known by practical exp~erienice to uncivilizedi na tions. Tihus, the- Kamutschatdlales are In the habit of mixing earth andl sawdlust with the train oil on which they are frequently redumced to live, and~ Veddahs, or wi'ldl hunters o( Ceylon, on thme samie principle, mingle the pounded fibre (of soft decayed wood with the honey on which they feed when meat, is not procurable. TIhme time which has elapsed since the last meal was taken should, for the effetual performance of digestion, be sutlicienit to insure the stomach being quite clear of food. Thme amount of exercise taken p~revious and~ sub. sequent, to the meal is not wvithiout its itu fluence, geniac exercise being favorable, and every exertion injurious to dligestion. Thea thiere is the state of mind, tranqumhi. ty of temper being apparently esseiitial to qjuick and easy digestsoni. Ini addition may be mentioned the state of bodily health and the state of the wveather. In all iikelihoodl ar. Preece, of the Biritish postal telegrapic service, has Iearun ed something whichm may be of value to his countrymen in his late examination of the Parisian electrical experimnents and estab lishmrents. His report on what lie has seeii may be read with interest, If not with much profit. lie is, at least, honest in his opin ions.

WASTI iN MRAT.-Speaking of the un avoidable waste attending the restoratioi of frozen iheat, poultry and game, Ifs Juliet Carson says: All these articles,bu especially the latter, must be carefull, thawed. 'Small game can usually be' re stored by bringing it into the kitchen tw< or three hours before it is needed 'for use Large birds, hares, venison, etc., must bo completely immersed in cold water unti their flesh is pliant. All frost In meat game and poultry must be kept away fron the flre,-because any sudden accession o heat causes the putrefaction of incat whici has been frosted. Care must be taken ti use it as soon as it has been thawed, and i little extra time, about three minutes t< each pound, must be allowed for cooking No salt should be added to the water ii which it is immersed, because it would in crese the necessary percentage of waste bj drawing out more of the juices of the mca than unsalted water. The ski and inne membranes of frozen poultry Pnd gai are to a certain extent disintegrated by of feet of intense cold, and require very care ful handling to avoid breaking them whet the entrails are drawn ; it is advisable ti place a little bag of powdered charcoal ii the neck, to remain until cooked this wil remove any trace of taint. DoN'T Bcu, Yorn bl.x.-The anima albumen which milk conta!ns, and bj which the nerves in the human body ar made, is hardened and destroyed by boil ing. In milk used by children whosi systems are being built up and formed this is of vital importance, but it is to b seriously considered by adults whos4 nerves are repaired and strengthened bo this albumen or nerve food. The abo% applies also to eggs and to all food. Tb French, who rarely suffer from disorders o the stomach, never boil their food. Theil cooks are taught to cook slowly and gen tly, so that their dishes are tender, nutri cious and easy of digeston. I am quiti aware of the tendency of milk to hold am even proiote the jgrowth of germs, a well as of the typhoid fever some fey years ago in Marylebone an( Paddington an(1 of the source to which It was attributed nevertheless, except under extraordinar3 circumstances and for a short time only, do not boil your milk. How To WASH C.oTMs WIruour Fu iNO. -A lady correspondent sends us th, following recipe, which she has tried wit) success on all kinds of fabrics: Wash an peel Irish potatoes, and grate them mt, cold water. Saturate the articles to b washed in this potato water, and they cai then be washed with soap without an, running of the color, I have taken oil ou of carpets saturated with this potato wa ter, when simple would make the colo] run ruinously; have set the color In blacl iuslins, in colored merinos, in ribbons an other silk goods. Often the potato wate cleanses sufliciently without the use o soap ; but the latter is necessary wher, there is any grease. In such cases (with. out soap) I take the grated potato itself ano rub the goods with a flannel rag. In wool en goods it is ncesary to strain the water else the particles will adhere, -but this I not necessary in goods front which thej caii be well shoken. Wx are not going to let you forget tha the eggs and sugar should be beaten to gether for all kinds of custards and cakes in short everything that eggs and suga are used for. All who try it will fiud it t great advantage; the sugar is entirely dis solved then and concquently the cak will be much lighter. It Is useless to bea the whites and yolks separately for any thing except white mountain cake, ninr ble, or something where they are bake' separate. If you wvill beat the eggs an' sugar long enough they wvill make a cak, light, as you wouk1 wish to see.

When theg niad their rluct ) ant and tardy appearance, the services had just begun, and.when they id scarcely taken their seats, the minister gave out the I frst hymn, reading It somewhat thus: "Return, ye ransom sinners, home." "All right l" cried the head of the Ransoms, f getting up In rage, and clappIng hia hit k on his head. "Come along ola womati and ) gals; we'll go home fast enough; 6 and everybody in the old church knows we ) didn't want to come." "WnATr do they mean by this talking about "bloom that's off the rye f ' inquired Jenkins, as lie yanked the spittoon around under his chair. "Never saw any bloom on or off the rye, s'far as I've observed." "When a man," remarked Garcelon, who came in just then," "conies aloafin' about this place ev'ry afternoon, with a nose like a night bloomin' crocus, an' the elbows of his trousers showing the dirt through 'em and a shirt on that ain't been changed for a week, that man is travelin' right along after the bloom; and though he ain't quite got the fragrance an' color, he's a vergin close'onto it." And the old man borrowed a match and a couple of funny exchanges and meandered down stirs. (Indianapolis, Indiana, Farmer.) Everybody Bight. * When every one says a "thing is so, it must be so." On this point Mr. A. II. Lyman, Druggist, Manistee, Mich., writes: Every one who tries St. Jacob's 011, says that it is the beat remedy ever used for rheumatiani. 31r. White, a customer, after having employed every klnown spec. ific for rhieumatisin was cured by St. Jacob's Oil. MAIS. SANOLBs breathlessly said: Dear, I will tell you an awful, awful thing. Do you know that Mr. Slowbax cannot take lils breakfast in the morning uhtil ho has had a cocktail. Now, my Mr. Spangles never does such a thing ga that. He woud not think of a cocktail.

He hastens down to the store without his breakfast." A Pzuny county minister was preashing very eloquently to his congregation the other lay. Waxing quite warm in his theme, and becoming quite earnest in voice and gesture, his artificial teeth flew out of his mouth and landed in the altar. Wind iig up lils discourse very suddenly, he called on a member to lead In prayer, and during the devotional exercises lie slipped down into the altar and recovered his grinders.
