HINT ON MILKING Cows.--A man wbo
had done his own milking employed a boy
to do it ; he shrunk the milk one third In
two weeks. The owner resumed the milk
ing and in two weeks got the same as be
fore. Afterward he set a hired man to
milk, and lie sunk the milk 10 pur cent. in
two weeks: and in two weeks more, the
owner milking again, got as much as be
fore. 'Ihis man does the work quickly
and milks very clean. He closes the fore
linger and thumb around the teat higli up,
and makes a downward motion, tightening
the grip and forcing-out the milk; then lets
go his hold, keeping the thumb and linger
in circle, carries ip the hand and presses
it snartly against the udder, and closes
and pulls down as before, and so repeats
until done. The philosophy, if any, is to
give as near as may be the same motion
that the calf does in sucking. Many a
good cow is partially despoiled of her good
qualities in consequence of being improp
erly milked.
Cows that are in milk should be watched
and given extra feed so soon as signs of a
falling off are seen. It Is very diaIlcult to
increase the flow after a shrinkage occurs.
15o soon as the pasture begins to get short,
supplement the feed of the 1ield by a ration
of green corn fodder in the yard or stall.
Alany cows suffer from cxcessive heat,
being exposed the wholh day through the
hot sun in a treeless yasture. A pasture
sh,>uld afford a comfortable place, as well
as furnish food for the animals, that the
greatest profit may be obtained.
Pios profit by a good run in clover, or
fresh grass. They are naturally clean an
iials, and only become "pigs" when they
have mire and mu tid holes for a run. Young
pigs that are designed for the early wintr
market should be pushed now by extra
feed. A rapid growth at this time will
make nauch diffe ence in the profit of keep
ing pigs. Pig pork is the best, and young
pigs ot an early niaturing breed should,
therefor, be fattened from the start. Sour
milk is not enough for theni; add grain
feed in liberal quantities.
Ci/.;%nR Synn ix AurUMN.-A pennsyl
vania lai nier who has tried it, recommends
that when the spring sowing of clover seed
does not "catch" owing to drouth or other
causes, that sowing clover seed upon the
tubble in August, or early September,
will generally repair the damage, either
with or without harrowing in, although
hiarrowing is the iost, reliabile practice.
The cost of the extra secti is but a trifle
conipared with changing the proper rota
tion of crops established upon every well
regulated larm.

CoLrOING CARPET RAos,.-For Red, take
1 ounce of cochineal for each pound of
goods; soak 24 hours in warm soft water;
when dissolved, heat the solution and add
while heating 1 oz. of solution of tin; wet
the goods in hot water and put in the hot
solution, and scald for one hour. Take out
the goods, dry them and then rinse in clear,
cold water. Use a clean brass kettle for
heating the dye. For Brown, take for 20
pounds of goods, 4 lbs. of japonica, 5 oz.
sulphate of copper in crystals, and 9 oz.
bichromlate of potash; take water eaough
to cover the goods; boil it with the japonica
until this is dissolved; add tile copper sul
phate, put in the goods and leave them 12
hours. Then wring them out; dissolve the
bichromate of potash In boiling water; put
in the goods and stir them well for 16 min
utes; then air and wash them; beat the
japonica again and put in the goods for 12
hours more ; wring them and put them In
the bichromate solution boiling hot. Then
wash in hot soap suds. Cotton rags should
be dyed first and then the woolen ones may
be put through the dye. For Yellow, use
1 lb of fustic chips with 31 oz, alum to 2
pounds of rags, Steep the fustic for 12
hours in hot water; put In the goods and
soak until the color is deep enough. For
Blue, on woolen use solution of Indigo add
ing the dye, a tablespoonful at it timie, until
the color is deep enough. For cotton take
China blue, 2 oz. and 1 oz. of oxalic acid;
soak the blue 12 hours in a tin pall; dissolve
the acid in an earthen bowl and add it to
the blue. leat to boiling, but do not boil.
Put In the goods, and let them stay 2 hour's;
dry them, rinse and dry again in the shade.
For Green, put the yellow goods through
the blue (lye. Or for cotton, put the blue
goods through a solution of jilb. of sugar of
lead and I lb. of bicbromate of potash each
made separately; the goods are dipped
from one to the other until tile shade suits.
For Orange, put the yellow goods into a
weak red dye until tibe shade is deep enough.
Slate and Dove colors are made by boiling
4 oz. of coarse black tea in an Iron pot with
it teaspoonflul of copperas and sufficient soft
water to cover the goods. To get the best
colors without streakiness let the goods be
well covered and every thing be perfectly

AMRiHIOAN patchwork, known by the
name of "loghouse quilting" In Canada, has
quite recently been introduced into Eng
land. It is a variety of patchwork into
which strips of colored ribbon are intro
dluced. The pieces forming the design are
not separately sewn together, as in ordinary
patchwork, but a five-Inch foundation
square of calico is provided, in the centre
of which a small one an inch and a quarter
square, of piece silk or satin. is tacked.
Round this a uarrrow ribbon is run, four
iows being r quired to 1111 up the louinda
tion square. This narrow, ribbon is selected
of different shaiides and colors and is so ar
ranged that on two sides of the centre
square it is of a light shade, on the other
two lark (managed by only taking each
shade of ibbon half way round the centre.)
Several of these five. inch squares are form
ed, and they are then sewn together like
ordiary patchwork pieces and iade up so
that the light aide of one squarC is next the
light sile of the! next square, and the dark
next the dark, giving the look of alternate
squares of light and dark colors. TI effect
of this work depends upon the judicious
selection of the narrow ribbon as to its
shades of color and their contrasts with
each other. The centre square of piece
silk siould alwaws be dark, but not black.

LAST week a tair but fickle maiden of the
blue grass region, Ky., said "Yea" to two
persistent suitors. I he two would- be hus.
banuds met at the house ot the pretty double.
dealer provided with marriage licenses.
Did the swains blow each other to atomns
with double-barreled shot-guns, or perfor
ate each other with big bullets from large
revolvers I Nothing of the kind. They
simply compelled the coquette to accept
one of them, with the, to her, horrible un
dertanding that the rejected one, instead
of going out to commit suicide for love of
her, was to have the name In one of the
licenses altered so as to enable him to marry
a maiden across the way, a hated rival, too.
Instead of a double shooting there was a
dual weddfug, and the ieretricious girl,
who tried so hard to make two moein miser

Ah inventfotk has just been made by a
firm of German gun manufactors which
promises to add very greatly to the pow
er of artillery. Hitherto the fear of pre
mature explosions during the transport or
filling of shells has prevented any large em
ployment of nitro-glycerine, and certain
other extremely violent but easily inflam
mable explosivee, for the ourpose of cliarg
iug them. It is claimed for the new inven
lion that it will enable such substances to
be used without danger. The interior of
the shell is divided into a number of cells,
which are to contain substances non-ex
plosive in themselves, but which, when
combined, form a powerful explosive. The
walls of the cells must therefore be broken
up befbre an explosive cl.arge is formed
within the shells; and the inventor pro
poses to make these partitions of such
strength that, while they will withstand
ordinary jolting, they will be shattered by
the shook to which a projectile is subjected
when tired from a gun.

mouth, England, which may prove of
widespread utility. The invention is de
signed to serve the double object of a bell
buoy, indicating the presence of a danger
ous shoal, and a refuge for shipwreck mari

presented as a flat-bottomed, bell-mounted
vessel, on which is erected an octagonal
dome capable of accommodating a ship's
crew, access to which is gained by means
of ladders fitted to the gunwale. Mr. Shur
well is the maker of several buoys; and his
new invention has been highlT approved
by the expert and naval authorities to whom
it was submitted. As such a contrivance
can be inoored at well-known and the most
dangerous shoals where many vessels have
foundered and many more may be expect.

Cured of Drinking.
"A young friend of mine was cured of
an insatiable thirst for Liquor, which had
so prostrated him that he was unable to do
any business. He was entirely cured by
the use ot Hop Bitters. It allayed all that
burning thirst; took away the appetite for
liquor; madehis nerves steady, and he has
remained a sober and steady man for more
than two years, and has no desire to return
to his cups ; I know of a number of others
that have been cured of drinking by it."
