HOME, FARM AD GARDEN.
One of the first things a farmer's
wife shouliUearn, if she has not already
learned it as a farmer's daughter, is to
drhe and harness a horse.
Xecr carry scissors or a crochet
needle in your pocket without taking
the precaution to put the point of the
sciors in. an empty spool; and the
needle can be inserted in a cork.
A llannel cloth dipped into warm
foip-uds and then into whiting and ap
plied to paint, will instantly remote all
grea'e and dirt. Wash with clean water
and dry. The mot delicate paint will
not beinjured, and will look like new-.
A large number of planters are en
paged in the cultivation of figs in the
Mate of ArLan i, and so far with suc
cess Mr. 0. II. Wilson, of Drew Coun
ty, has a tine orchard, and a s that his
experience gne to show that ligscan be
grown in Arkan-.w at a much cheaper
rate than anyother place.
German Way of Fry ing l!eef Steak:
Pound out the steak a little, salt it
and fry quickly with hot lard on both
sides, l'our off the lard and place the
steak on the dih. l'ut into the pan
some fresh butter and fry with it some
finely-cut onions, and pour this over the
steak.
Chopped cold cabbage and potatoes
wanned up together, with vinegar, but
ter, fait and pepper, make a nice relih.
Equal quantities of ma-hed potato and
mashed turnip, warmed m in the ame
manner, are aIo nice. lJoiled carroH
'Heed thin and fried in pork fat. like
pirMiips and otatoe. are equally as
!Tood for dinner or breakfast.
When the com on the ear is fed to
hordes they maticate it much more
flow Iy than if the com w as -helled. As
i con-cquence, that on the ear is lictler
dige-ted. A horse require more time
to eat com oil the ear than if fed either
meal or -helled com. If the hor-e can
not hae time to mi-ticatea full feed of
unshelled corn, then it is best to feed
!oniething el-e.
It mav be well to remind tho-e who
grow w indow-plants that by returning
them away from the window, and ar
ranging a eocr of new -papers over
them, they may be presetted from harm
in SLTerely- cold nights. With the plants,
a- with our-ehe-, it is not o much that
cold come- in, as that the heat goes out,
and often a slight protection w ill pre
vent the c-cjpe of heat.
One of the strongest cements, and
cry readily made, is obtained when
equal quantities of gutta percht and
shellac are melted together and well
stirred. This is best done in an iron
cap-ule placed on a sand-bath, and
heated either oer a ras-fumaee or on
the top of a stove. It is a combination
pos-cssing both hardness and tough
ness qu ilities that make it particularly
desirable in mending erockery. When
this cement is u-cd, the articles to bo
mended should be warmed to about the
melting point of the mixture, and then
retained in proper position until cool,
when they are ready for use. Ex
chnnqc. When a tree stands so that the shad
ow can be measured, its height can be
readily ascertained as follows: Set a
stick upright let it be perpendicular by
the plumb line. Measure the length of
the shadow of the stick. As the length
of its -hadow is to the height of the
stick, -o is the length of the shadow of
a tree to its height. For instance: If
the -tick is four feet above the ground,
and its shadow is six feet in length, and
the shadow of the tree is ninctv feet, its
height will be sixty feet C: i: 90: CO.
In other words, multiply the length of
the shadow of the tree by the length of
the stick, and divide by (he lenth of tho
shadow of the stick.
Fi" pie makes a delicate dessert.
Make a thin, rich crust for the bottom.
Let it come to the edge, and bend it up
ward just enough to hold the filling, but
do not make a hick ridge of crust; it
will not be eaten, and will spoil the
good looks of the pie. For a medium
si7cd h"e take half a pouudof figs, chop
them fine, and cook with tl'e addition of
a cup of cold water, or part cider and
jiart water. If j on cannot get cider, a
little brandy may be substituted. When
the figs are soft" and smooth, put in tho
cru-t and bake. Make a meringue of
the white of the eggs, beaten stiff, with
two tablcspoonfuls of sugar beaten with
them; flavor with vanilla, and without
taking the pie from the o en, as soon as
the crust is done, spread this over the
top, and let it form for a minute or two,
not lonsrer.
WEATHER--OR NOT.
e admire the philosophy or the onfortnnata
an. who, when ercrythiiig had been swept
away, said, W ell, there'll be weather and taxes
left, at any rate.- Alas! weatherla the -yellow
dog" of all subjects; everyone thinki it his
special right to try to better the weather, and
hurl his anathemas against 01d Probabilities."
