AGRIOULTURE. lurrox.-b1utton Is better adapted for a food for persons living in the country tkau F beef. Most farmers are situated so -Tar I from a market that they can not obtain I fresh meat to eat during the summer, when i the hard labor in the fields demands an excellent diet. They cannot protit ably dispose of the flesh of a steer j slaughtered during hot weather even if they have an ic 3-house, One-quarter is as large a quantity as even a large family I can c'nsuie before danger of spoiling 1 occurs. It is difficult to cure beet in the I summer so It will be certain to keep, even If one has a supply of ice. The like Is true in relation to obtaining a supp'y of fresh i meat from hogs during thb suimer. It is I more dillcult to cure pork than beef In the I summer; and besides pork is not well I suited tor a general article of diet during very warm weather. The home supply of fresh meat in summer, however, can read- I ily be obtained if a farmer keeps a flock of sheep. Mutton can be kept much longer in a fresh state than either beef or pork. Be sides even the largest varieties of sheep are so much smaller than ateers or hogs that their carcasses can be disposed of In a much shorter time. If a family Is too small to consume all the meat furnished by a sheep a part can be salted. The meat is so thin, as compared with beef or pork, that every plrtion of it will absorb asulilcient amount of salt and sugar even when the weather Is very warm. Many persons know nothing of the merits of corn beef. It has never occur9d to soine farmers that mutton could be cured for future use. 'Ihey corn and dry beef, salt and smoke pork, but if necessary eat Imutton, it indeed they eo t it all, when it is fresh. Now, any part of a sheep furnishes excellent eating when it is salted and boiled. In many respects it is superior to corned beef. It is imore highly flavored and is better relished when eaten with potatoes and garden vegetables; stewed with sweet herbs it is a rare delicacy. The hiim and shoulders of mutton are ex cellent when salted and smoked. The tongues of sheep are superior to those of cattle and pigs. Altitton is more easily di gested than most kinds of meat, and in delicacy ranks next to the flesh of chickens and small game fowls. MUD AND SAUcEIs.-Take any common saucer or plate, into which puf sand to the depth of an inch or so, then prepare cut tings In the usual manner in the sand close enough to touch each other, The sand is to be watered to brilig it to the condition of niud. The saucer- with the cuttings is then placed on the shelf of tihe greenhouse, in the hot bed, or in the sunny window of an,1y rom in the aweiling house ; in each case fully exposed to the sun and never shaded. But one condition is essential to success-uutil cuttings become rooted, the sand inust be kept continually saturated with water, and aIlways in the condition of mud. l'o (1o this tie saucer must be waatered at, least once a day with a very line watering-pot, and the watering must be (lone very gently. else the cuttings may be Washed out. There is every probability that at least ninety per cent. of all the cut tings put iml will take root, provided they were in the proper condition, and the tem perature has not been lower than sixty-five degrees nor above one hundred degrees. The cuttings will root (according to kinds and the teinperature) in from six to twenty days. Verbenas, lihutropes, fuchisias, etc., root in a week, while roses, carnations, or azaleas take two, three or four weeis. When rooted they should be potted in light soil, in pots froni two to three incies in di aineter, and treated carefully by standing and watering for two or three days. GANnnu Sxxus.-In purchasing seedls for the garden it should be borne in mind that a certsin amount is necessary to produce a maximum crop. One ounce of seeds wvill produce 1,000 asparagus plants, 3,000 cab bage, 4,000 celery, 2,000 egg plants, 3,000 Kohl Rtabbi, 3,000 lettuce, 2,000 peppers, 2,000 tomiatoes, 500 rhubarb and 3,000 chicory. One ounce of the seeds naimedi willl be suhlicient for the number of feet of (dril followling: carrot, 150 feet; onion, 100 ; p~arsley, 150; parsnip, 200; radish, 100 ; ruta baga, 205; spinach, 200.

European observers state that the frequent variations im intensity to which the light is subject give rise to sudden and [requent changes in the pupil, and,1 consequently, in the "acconmmodlationi" of the eye, by which Is meant that alternate contriictioin and dhilation of the pupil, by wyhich it sulits itself to the variations of light. Such a light, therefore, causes not only muscular fatigue, but also a consider able degic of blurring andI indistinctness in the retinal image. The eye suffers I both whlen the light is too diii and when It is too bright. In the former ciise the 0o) ject must ho brought close to be clearly seen, and increasedl accomimodlative effort is called for, which in most cases re stilts in ntear-sighledniess. In the latterI case, the simple intensity of the light pro ducees unduhte contraction of the pupil, and an increase of tension withmn the eye. An Animecn hais invented a berth, which isalrediy adopted by3 several steam ship lines, that, Is hung like a compass on diouble piVOts, so asR to coinforia itself to the motion or the vessel. .It occupies only an mcli more roomi thaii the ordiinary berth, but is so arranged that those who withi to be "rocked ini the cradlle of the dieep)"can enjoy that pleasure by3 inserting a phlig int the mechanism.

A.HINT To UoUsErEEpEns.-1 belIve in ystematie housekeeping when not carried o excess. It :s very foolish to do work when you are not able, because it - is ' the egular day for It. When a person is not well, it is best to do as you can, not as you vould like. I am never . very well, but itill manage to get through with all my Nork. When I do not feel able t0 do all ny washing in one day, let me tell you low I manage. I commence In the aftjr. loon. (I know plenty of people will augh, but never mind.) I clean all up in the morning, as carefully as though I were toing to sewing iuitiad of washing. Then, titer dinner Is all cleared rway, I wash all ,he white clotties and have them ready -to iang up in the morning. Then I have he night to rest in. L-t some poor tired Noaan try it, and see if it is not better ,han doing all in one day, and be then sick ,wo or three days aftsrward. AliNOnD Fow..-Cold roast fowl, a hard )oiled egg, salt and pepper (or cayenne) to 'aste, three tablespoonfuls of new milk or cream, half an ounce of butter, one table ipoonful of flour, a tablespoontul of lemon ulce. Mince the fowl and remove 'all ikin and bones; put the bones, skin and rlmmings into a stewpan. with one small )nion, if agreeable to patient, and nearly )ne-half pint of water; let this stew for in hour, then strain liquor; chop the egg ;mall ; in x the egg with the fowl, add ialt and pepper; put in the gravy and )ther ingredients; let the whole just boil, Ind serve with sippets of toastod bread. Pit iuis are aware of the curious fact ,hat sone of our sweetest and most deli e tely scented flowers are of no value for pertumery. For exanple, no process has yet been discovered by which thu fragrance D f sweet-brier and eglantine can be extract ud and preserved, but a good imitation is produced by a compound of neroli oil,with alcoholic extracts of rose pomade and o orange flowers. Lily of the valley, which Is likewise unavaliable to the perfumer, is welt imitated by a combination of vanilla. extract of tuberose, jasmine and otto of al monds. Lilies are little used in perfumery, their odors being too powerful. UNDi~xino circumstances should matches be allowed to "lie around loose" on man tlepiece or shelf. What are known as parlor matches light readily, and are as much more danmerous than the common matches as they are more convenient. The general stock should be kept in a tia box, which Is not to ba opened or taken from except by the master or mistress of the house. For each room where matches are used there should be a metal match sae of some kind, and the matches are to be kept in that and nowhere else. G 0UArAIo oi PixEAP.ri.X Siiuin..-This is a SoUth Ainer.can recipe. To four quarts of wiater add two good cups of sugar and a large pineapple chopped line, with all the juice that runs from it. Place the mixture in a narrow necek water-jar or junk-bottle. Let it tand where the the heat is steady till it begins to forient. In very warm weather it will need to stand about two days. When ready, pla c it on the ice till very cold and serve. It is delicious half flozen, but a little more sugar and pine apple should be added at first. PUTTING AWAY WINTEn Ci.ornxs.--Great care must be exercised in putting away winter clothes ;clean paper sacks, or even old cotton or linen pillo0w cases will do to hold them, providing there are no h:>les in them. Take the garments that are to be laid awvay outdIoors on a summer day, let them hang on a line for severei hours, brushi andi beat the dust all out, then put inito the bags, tie them up, so that no moth can get in, and lay them on clean, dry shelves, or hang them up.
