firmly attached to the soit that either will
sustain a weight of 50 or 100 pounds before

A LATE number of the Gardener's
Chronitcl contains a detailed accvunt of
sonue experiments which have been made
in grafting potatoes for producing graft
hybrids. but with a single exception with
out any succesS. Sonme years ago this
model Cf attempting to produce crosses
was thought to promise great results; but
it appears to be now giveu as of little val
ue. Placing the face of two unlike sci
one together may proiuce a union between
them in precisely the same way that the
graft and stock in common grafting adhere
together; and as the stock sometimes ef
fects an influence on the grait, so that the
two grafts may produce some change.
Whet are termcd accidental "sports"-of
ten caused by some external injury--have
given more distinct new sorts tihan grafting
has ever accoimplished. it'iising new
plants from aced is a miuch easier and more

THE Gardenr:6'8 Aontht.y gives in sub
stance the loslowing good p)ractical direc
tions for pru)ni:g ornamental shrubs on the
api:roach of spring: Indiscriminate cut
ting back will not answer the desired pur
nose. Distinction must be made between
slow and vigorous groweir, and between
thnse. which bear flowers on old wood ati
those which flower on new growth. Such
as grow too strong to flower well should
be lightly prunta.andl in the same individ
ual the weaktst sLaoots should be cut in
more sevet ely than the stronger ones. Li
lacs and the Philadelphus bear flowers on
the wood of last 3 ear, andl to prune them
much now destro3s the llowering,while the
altheas and others which flower on the

TiMEz was when the bean crop of Western
New York rargedt fronm twenty to thirty
bushels per acre; but several farmers in
this town say it will not be over elght or
nine bushels tis Year. One field of thirty
acres, very carefully fitted and cultivated,
gave only between thiri.en andi fourteen
bushels per acre. Aniother, near the high
way, which was thought as Promising as
any, only tturn(d tsn bushels per acre.
Several hundied acies were destroyedt by
hail in the towns of Caledoima, york and
other towns In the northwest; many fields
were inJjui( d by using too much seed,
caused by the weevil scare about planting
time.
iPAaTUR1INO sheep or liege in orchards is
an excellent prac.ace, less Ior the value of
the pasture than for the benefit to the fruit
by destroying wormy specimucni. 'rThe
animals should be led liberally daily, but,
not1 late: at night or early in the morning,
so as to encourago them to make early
forays for fallen Iruit.
EvENYt 0one interested in potatoes should
try on a small scale new varieties till they
find something adapted to their cultivation
etc., ando by beim, a little carefuli, can dou
ble their yield on any of the old kinds with
but hittle additional expense. Mloney spet
for good seed is well invested, and will be
very certain to pay a large dividend.
ExPEnmiMENTs by careful breeders give
some valuable facts for estimating the cost

A ymnrsThAs Prum PUDDIMU.-To be
wholesome, a plum pudding must be
well combined, well mixed, well cooked,
served up hot, and eaten before the ap
petite is flagging. A good plum pud- 1
ding Is not indigestible, but nourishing, I
strengthening, and above all, comfort.
Ing; it puts people in good temper and
makes them feel happy. Do not make
it too rich, too heavy, nor too sweet,
nor too large, but be moderate in every
thing, forgetling nothing, and mixing
it with your own han'ds. Only that
plum pudding Is lucky that is stirred I
by each member of the household.
Take one pound of best raisins, well
stoned; one pound of currants, half a
pound of Sultanas, half a pound of fine. I
ly-chopped candied peel, one pound of
best moist sugar, the rind of one lemon,
grated; mix spice according to judge
ment; one ounce of powdered sweet 4
almonds, grated nutmeg and ground I
cinnamon, a pinch of salt and a pinch I
of ground pepper. Prepare best white I
stale bread crumbs and rub it even, to
your judgement In quantity; then add
three tablespoons of fine-sifted flour.
Chop as fino as possible three quarters
of a pound of best beef suet; add to
bread and flour; also two good pinches
of baking powder; mix well. Add gro
ceries and mix well. Pour tivo table
spoons of best golden syrup over this
mixture.
Beat up the yolks of six eggs well;
the whites of three with white sugar,
mix them with the pudding materials.
Stir for ten minutes, till all is amalgama
ted. Add two glasses of sherry, if
desired, mix aufficient to bring to a good
moisture, but not sloppy. Butter a
mould well; pour in pudding and place
in steamer or saucepan, so that the wa.
ter reaches only half the height, and by
no means immerso it, cover the pudding
with clean paper and let steam for six
hours at least. For sauce, take piece
of best butter and melt; mix with half
a spoon of best fine flour, mix well.
Add sugar and vanilla flavoring and as
much milk or cream as desired. Mix
well in stirring until it is perfectly
smooth.
SCOTcH BROTU,-In addition to Len
ten fast-keepers there are numbers of
people who 'take to" vegetable diet at
this time of the year, bcoause it agrees
wiih thm. Here is a receipt for a nour
ishing soup: Eight ounces barley, four
ounces haricot beans, four ounces dried
green peas, two large carrots, one largo
turnip, one largo leek (or four ounces
of omlons), one ounce salt butter; salt
to taste. The peas are soaked in water
for twenty four'bours, then at 9' o'clock
are put in the water with cold water,
the barley, beans and onions-other
vegetables are added successively as
they are prepared, thus retaining the
flavor of all, and insuring thorough
cooking. At five minutes to one o'
clock the butter is added to the thor
oughly blended ingredients, and the
soup, served with toasted bread, formi
an abundant and satisfying meal. The
tiavor being in the vegetables aAid not
in the meat, none but the imtiated can
tell the difference, from tha soup made
with six pounds to eight pounds of beef.
FRENC RIcE PUDDING.-Pick and
wash in twvo or three waters a couple of
handfuls of rice, and put it to cook in
rather less than a quart of milk, sweet
ened to taste, and with the addition of
the thin rind of one lemon, cut in one
piece, and a small stick of cinnamon.
Let the rice sinamer gently until it has
absorbed all the milk. Tiurn it out in
to a basin, and when cold, remove the
lemon-rind and cinnamon. Then stir
into it the yolks of four eggs and one
whole egg beaten up; add a small quain
tity of candied citron cut into snaall
pieces andi mix it wvell in. Butter and
bread crumb a plain tin mould, put the
mixture into it, and bake mn a quick
oven for about half an hour. To aiscer
tain when the puddiing is done, insert
a bright t.rusising-noedio into it; it will
como out clean when the pudding is
done.
UncCoLATB MAOAROONS --Delicious
chocolate mnacaroons are made by melt
ing slowly, and with care, three ounces
of plain chocolate. A good way is to
melt, it in a tin tush and set it within
another containing hot water. Make a
thick p>aste by stirring in gradually one
pound1( of p)owder<d sugar and the wvel -
beaten whitLs of throcu-eggs. then spread
or roll it. as smooth as posible to a sheet
about a quarter of an inch thick. Out
it mn small, round, and fano) -ihapeci
pieces; butter your cookey tina and
acatt--r a hot1e flour and sugar over tlio
bottoin (use eqaul quantities of each),
and lay the iacaroona on. Bake in a
lwt oveu, but avoid having it hot enough
to scorch tiuem.
&rawZD S'wJEETBnEADS. -Trim some
sweetbreads and coak them in warm
water till quite white, blatnch in boiling
wvater, anu then p)ut, them in cold for a
short time, When cold diy them and
put them in some well-f1avored white
stock. Stew for half an hour. Beat
up the yolks of two or three eggs with
sonme cream, a little finely-mine parsley
and grated nutmeg, pepp>er and salt to
taste. And this to the sauce, put it on
the flre to get quite hot, dish the sweet
breads, pour the sauce over, and serve.
THEt SaAwL -The shawl is pre-emin
ently it I. minine article of apparel, but
is sometimes appropriated by the other
sex. The Syrian gentleman Wears it as
a girdle, often of costly material and
beautiful tints. The ofroot is then very
fine. The shawl holds an honored place
in the wardrobe of the queen and wraps
its faded tatters around the beggar in
the street., in one country it is worn
as5 a coat, in another as a blanket, in a
third at. a cloak, in a fourth as a vail
falling gracelully from the head over
the shoultiers, and in a fifth reposing
con the shoulders haugs in undulating
folds, giving an indefinable air of gan
tiity to the lady who knows how to
'wear it.
CRANDEIuIr SAUCE. -Pick over and
wash the cianberi ie~s and put in preserv
ing kettle with halt a pint of water to
one quart of berries; now p)ut the eu
gar,-grauated sugar is the best--on
top of the berries. Set on the tire and
stir about half an hour. Stir often to
provent burning. They ill not need
straining, and will preserve their rich
color cooked in this way. Never cook
cranberries boeo pulttinig ini the sugar.
Less suigar may be used if you do not
wish them very rich,
CHEsnina PonKx Pir.-Cut two or
three pounds lean fresh p)ork into strips;
line a buttered -tiish with puff paste;
put in a layer of perk seasoned with
pepper, salt and nutmeg or mace; next
a layer of juicy ap)ples, sliced and coy
ered with 1.bout an ounce of white au
gar; then imore pork, anu so on; stick
bits of butter orer the top, cover with
paste, brush over with a beaten egg,
and bake an hour and a half. This is a I
famous dish in the county from which
it takes Its name.

may bo truthfully alled the "Dear Friend of Woman,"
as some of her correspondents love to call her. She
is zealously devoted to her work, which is the outcome
of a lifo-study, and is obliged to keep six lady
assistants, to help her answer the large correspoudence
which daily pours in upon her, each bearing its i1pecial
burden of sufrering, or joy at release from it. iIer

and ptesoribod by thebest physicians in thb country.
Ono says: "It works like a charm and saves much
pain. It will cure entirely the worst form of falling
of the uterus, Luoorrhca, irregular and painful
Menstruation, all Ovarian Troubles, Inflammation and
Ulceration, Floodings, all Displacements and the con.
sequent spinal weakness, and is especially adapted to
the Change of lito."
It permeates every portion of the system, and gives
new life and vigor. It removes faintness, fiatuleAcy,
destroys alt craving for stimulants, and relieves weak.
ness of the stomach. It cures Bloating, IIeadaches,
Nervous Prostration, General Debility, Sleeplessness,
Depression and Indigestion. That feeling of bearing
down, causing pain, weight and backache, is always
permanently cured by its use. It will atall times, and
und,ir all cIrcumstances, act in harmony with the law
that governs the fetuale tystemi.
It costs only $L per bottle or six for P., and is sold by
druggists, Any advice reqiuired as to special cases, and
the names of many who have been restored to perfect
health by the use of the Vegetable Compound, can be
