AGRIOULTURE.
TUNits.--There is no crop that the
farmer puts in the ground that pays him
better than the turnip. We are awara
that with some persons it is looked upon
as of little account ; but it has never re.
ceived the consideration to which It is
really entitled, and those who turn up
their noses at it are not genuine farmers.
It is a crop, moreover, that Is put in at a
time when the hurrying work of the season
is over; wh-n it occupies ground that has
already been used for something else.
The cultivation also, say of from one to
two acres of turnips, involves compara
tively little labor. The crop. too, is har
vested in November, when there is almost
no other labor on the farm to interfere
with It. As to the variety of seed to sow,
we believe there is no turnip equal to the
purple top. A topdressing of bone manure
is almost indispensable to an abundant
crop. For an early crop take the E irly
Fiat Dutch and sow broadcast, and now Is
the time. The Purple Top for the regular
farm crop. This should be sowed in drills
thirty inches apart, and when the turnips
are the size of a hickory iut thin out to
eight or ten inches anart in the row
They seldom fail in offording a satisfactory
crop. The crop can be put in the first
half of August. Where land Is a little
short sow among the corn at the last work
mng. . They will not interfere In the least
with that crop, generally, and very little
when it is harvested. Be sure always to
procure seed from established seed houses
of reputation, and use that grown hero in
stad of in Europe if you wish the best
and safest article.
TlANSrLANTiSO.-- here is scarcely any
operation in gardening where there is so
much opportunity for the exercise of skill
and good judgment, as in transplanting.
The skilful gardener will move lis plants
so that they will hardly receive any check
in their growth, while the careless removal
of plants or the choice of too dry weather,
with subsequent neglects, occlsions the
loss of inany thousande of plants every
year, and much disappoimtment. In order
to bear transplanting well, the plaitt should
be in thrifty, growing ctn(ition, but not
by any ineinis "drawn" "long legged,"
as gardeners are wiout to cdh such plants
as have Buffered from crowding or too
rapid forcing under glass ; they should be
grown in sandy loam, which favors librous
growth of toots and should be well watered
a few hours before moving, so us to have
the toots n.oist when moved. Then care
should be given to have the loam in which
the pltaIts are lJlanct(e moist etiough and
warmil (noulllgh to favo irapid growth; and,
if possible, tiiey should bo shaded from
stin and wind for a few days after trans
planting, if the sun is hot.
VAnIOUC methods for hastening the con
version of cider into vinegar have been
recommended. A recent French method,
which seems practicable, is the following:
Seald three barrels or casks with hot water,
rinse thoroughly and empty. Then scald
with boiling vinegar, rolling the barrels
and allowing them to stand on their sides
two or three days, until they bicome tho
roughly saturn'ed with the vinegar. The
barrels are then filled about one third full
with strong pure eider vinegar, and two
gallong of cider added. Every eighth day
thereafter two gallons of cider ire added,
until the barrels are two Ihirds lull. The
whole is allowed to t-tid fourteen days
longer, when it will all be found to be
good vinegar, and one-half of it may be
di awn and the process of filling with eider
be begun again. In summer the barrels
are allowed to stand exposed to the sun,
aind in cold weatheir kept where the tem
perature is eighty degrees.

HousH PANTs.--Now in the opening of
summer, house plants require much care
and.attention. The -sunshine on clear days
will excite a rapid growth ; consequently
the plants will require a corresponding
amount of.air and moisture. Insect life
is now quite as active as plant life, and
the two cannot live long together. Destroy
the insects, or they will destroy your
plants. Young plants from seed sown in
boxes should be pricked out into small pots
and brought forward as rapidly as possible,
but do not suller them to grow weak and
spindling. Always remember that .one
good, strong, healthy plant will produce
more flowers than a soore of puny, weak
ones. Hyact nths in pots should be in por
fection of bloom this month. When tho
flower-spike is well developed and the
first flowersets begin to open cool, light
room. This materially prolong their sea
son of bloom.
A GOOD SUoocszioN TO loUsEHKEEPURs.
-No one knows until she has tried lt,says
an. experienced housewife to one of our
contemporaries, how much she may change
the aspect of things about the house by
using a little varnish. On a sunshiny day
take the old chairs and tables out on the
poi ch or by an open door, and, after tho
roughly dusting and wiping off with a
damp cloth, apply a thin coat o varnish,
and so cover up scratches and marred
spots of all kinds. It will dry in a very
short time, and you will be surprised to see
how much good you have done. A tlannei
cloth, with a very little lnsted oil, is good
to rub furniture with, but the greatest care
must be exercised to prevent any oil being
left on the wood to aitract dust. It must
be rubbed until you would not know, ex
cept by the improved appearance, that any
oil had been used.

Make a scarf of scrim for (lie top, with
embroidered and trinined ends to match
the flounce. If the table has no frame for
Lhe glass, you may hang any glass over it,
then fasten a large hook in the wall above,
aid from this hang a drapery of scrini,
tent-fashion. Line this drapery and em
broidery, and trini with lace to match the
balance of the table.

"Oh, no."
"Aren't afraid of anybody ?"

"I might as well tell you,".said the man
after beating around awhile longer. "I
went down to Toledo a few days ago, and

DRn. H. R. 5i'avuxs: TARSoNo, N. 0.. 18TS:
Dear Sir :-I feel very grateful for what your
valuable medicno, Vegetin', has done in my
family. I wish to express my thanks by inform
Ing you of the wonderful oure of my son; also,
to lot you know that Vegotino Is the best medi
cine I ever saw for CuiLLs, SHAKas, FnvXa and
Aous. My son was siek with measles In 8TS
which left him with lil-joint disease. My soi
suffered a great deal of pain all of the time; the
pain was so great he d.d nothing but dry. The
doctors did 110. help him a particle, he could not
lift his foot from the foor; he could not move
wit hout crutelkes, I road your adverti-ement
in tho "Leulsville Courier-Journal,' that Vege
Line was a great Blood Puriller and Blood Food.
I tried one bottle, which was a great benefL
UO kopt on with the medicine. gr-idually gain.
inHg. e has taken eighteen bottles in all, and
he la comipletely restored to health; walks with
out crutolies or cano. Ilo is twenty years of
age. I have a younger son, Ifteen years of ago,
who Is subject to Curas. Whenever he feel@
one coming on, he oones In. takes a dose of
Vegetine. and that Is the last of the Chill. Veg
etino loavo no ba-l effect upon tie system like
in-8t of the med cines recommended for Chills.
I eticorfully recommend Vogetine for ouch com
plaints. I think It In the greatest medicine LP
iJo world.
Rtespectfully. MRlS. J. W. LLOYD.
VzoE'rw.-When the blood becomei lifeles
and stagnan', elth r from oaango of weather or
of eitmate, want of exercite, irregular diet, or
Irom any other cause, the VsZTINN will renew
the blood. carry of the putrid humors. cleanse
the stomavh, regulate tie bowels, and impart
a tone or vigor to ttbo wholo body.

HR. H. R. S TEVENS:
Dear Sir-We have been selling your remedy,
the Vegetino, for about three years, and take
pleasure in reconnmending it to our custoners
and in no instance where a blood purifier would
reach the case has it ever failed to effect'a cure,
to oir knowledge. It certainly is the no plus Ultra
of rcuovators. lespectfully,
