AGRICULT URAL.
I.onrdiiis Farm llniitls.
Should the wives of well-to-do far
mers, who are possessed of houses,
lands, stocks, alive and dead, be com
pelled to run, manage, and do most of
the work in boarding-houses ana laun
dries for the accommodation of labor
ers? Our opinion is that they should
not. No such thing is expected of
the wires or the other employers, and
it should not be expected of the wives
of those farmers who have like means.
The pleasure and comfort of any home
is destroyed when it is converted into a
lodging and eating house for laboring
men. Especially is this the case when
the laundry is attached.
It would be better in every respect
to have arm hands live by themselves.
It would be much better for the fami
ly of the farmer, and generally more
pleasant for the hands themselves. At
present, in this country, only nnmar
ried men, as a rule, are employed to
work on a farm. In other kiuds of
business, it is found that married men
are the best employes, being more in
lined to be steady, industrious, and
less likelv to want to change places
They are also more likely te take an
interest Jn the business, whatever it is,
for the reason that they have increased
responsibilities.
If' the j)lan was general here, as
abroad, of having farm hands live in
a cottage, rented at small cost, many
would be married and keep house,
while other laborers would board with
them. By allowing, as they do in oth
r countries, the occupant of every cot
tage to have a small lot of land for lib
own use, and an opportunity to keep a
cow, pig, and poultry, it is likely that
they could live 'more cheaply as well
as more nleasantlv than under the
present system. -As to the farmer's
family, the gain would be great in
every respect. Chicago Times.
A Home-Hade Clod Crusher.
Take three scantlings, two of them
four feet and the other five feet long;
all of them two by five inches. Bevel
the foremost ends like a sled-runner.
Now lay the two shortest down six
feet apart and the longest one in the
center between them, with the beveled
sides up. Have all the rear ends
even and your boards eight feet long
and ten inches wide, and one and
one-half inches thick. Nail on the
rear plank first by driving in two large
nails in each scantling; lap each one
and one-half inch. After you get
your shortest scantlings nearly cov
ered, turn it over and hitch your team
to the center scantling, which projects
one' foot before the others.
This is a good thing to pulverize the
ground, and the greatest thing to cov
prwith that I ever tried. You can
cover two rows at a time. Cor. Cvi
etnnati Gazette.
Soap Care Tor Hog Cholera.
A year ago I bought six hogs from a
drove of twenty that were dying with
cholera, and found, on driving them
home, that they were affected; they
vomited often. I put them with
twenty of my own raising, and boiled
some corn in weak lye from ashes, used
eoft soap in their slop from the kitchen
and I never lost one, while the last of
that drove I left died. I have one
now which took it a month ago so bad
it would eat nothing, it seemed blind
I cured it by using one dose of com
mon soap, made thin with water, pour
ing it down with a tin cup, by holding
the hoc on its back. Cor. New York
Tribune.
A Aovcl Cure lor Lock Jnw in
Ilorite.
"We beard of a novel remedy for
lock jaw in horses while at the Wood
burn sale Wednesday last, which is, to
place a plank on the forehead of the
horse flatwise and strike it a f-harp
blow with a hammer. It is claimed
to be a perfect cure, but care must be
taken not to strike too hard. A friend
in Oldha-n county the other, day had
occasion to apply the remedy to a fine
marc, but used a sledge hammer and
gave toolwxivy a blow. The marc
rave two or three convulsive kicks and
expired. Yeoman.
A Xew Breed or.Mtcep.
Wm. Crozier, an Englishman in
charge of an extensive farm on Long
Island, is endeavoring to firmly estab
lish a new breed of sheep, produced by
crossing Cotswolds and South Downs
He has produced, tays the American
Agriculturalist, a sheep with a heavy
fleece of combing wool, superior in
quality and equal in weight with tint
of the pure Cotswold, and with as good
quality of fleih as the South Down,
and one-half greater iizc.

A correspondent of the Jew lork

killing off the green cabbage worm,
which our readers may find sufliciently
, . . . .n
valuable to pay for preserving until
time for applying them: Dissolve one
spoonful of saltpeter in a common pan
ful of warm (not hot) water, and sprin
kle the cabbage therewith on the first
appearance ot the worms. A wo or
three of these applications will suffice
for the season. The water, besides,
acts like a charm in promoting the
grothof the plant.

-CunR,vT Jam. Strip the currants
from the stalks, and put them into the
preserving-pan, with three-quarters of
a pound of sugar to each pound of
fruit; add the sugar after the fruit has
boiled a few minutes: boil together,
mashing the fruit with a wooden spoon,
and taking off all the scum; boil all
gently for half an hour. Then fill the

let them boil quickly together for near-
lv an hour, stirring carefully all the
time. Then add the sugar in the pro-
portion of thrcc-ouarters of a pound to
each pound of fruit, and boil for forty
minutes. Gooseberry jam takes a long
time to boil; if not well done it will
neither look nor keep will.
Grape Catsup. By following these
directions you will obtain an elegant
relish. Take five pounds of grapes,

To Keep BurrER Sweet. Put it

we know by experience.
To Keep Butter is Summer.
Invert a common flower-pot over the
butter, with some water in tlie uish in
which the butter is laid. The orifice
in the bottom may be corked or not.

The toothpick sliould be a quill, not
because tlie metallic picks injure the
enamel, but because the quill pick is
so flexible it fits into all the irregularis
tics between the teeth.
Always after using the toothpick
the mouth should be thoroughly
rinsed. If warm water be not at hand,
cold may be uied, although the warm
is much better. Closing the lips, with
a motion familiar to all, everything
may be rinsed from the mouth.
Every morning (on rising) and cv-

toothbrush should be used, and the

The necessity of a popular mediant forth

attempts have been made to meet the wsnt
The successive failures which hare so invariably
followed each attempt in this country to estab
lish an art journal, did not prove the indiffee'
enee of the people-of America to the e!ims of
high art. So soon as a proper appreciation of
the want and an ability to meet it were shown,
the publlo at once rallied with enthusiasm to
its support, and tbe result was a rrtat artistio
and commercial triumph TBE JtLDINE.
ineAiaine wnue Issued with all or the regu
larity, has none of the temporary or ftmty in'
Uresis characteristic of ordinary periodicals.
It is an elegant miscellany of pure, tight, and
graceful literature, and a collection of pictures,
the rarest collection of artistic skill, la black
and white. Although each succeeding number
affords a fresh pleasure to its friends, the real
value and beauty ot The Aldine will bo most
appreciated after it is bound up at the close ot
the year. While other publications may elsinr
superior cheapness, as compared with rivals tt
a similar class. The Aldine is a unique and
original conception alone and onapnroaehed)
absolutely without competition in price or
cnsracier. J.ne possessor or a complete ton
ume eannot duplicate the quantity of fine pa
per and engravings in any other shape or
nnm-
ber of volumes, or ten timtt iu coil; and tin,

Tbe national feature of Tbe Aldine must b
taken in no narrow sense. True art is cosmo
politan. While The Aldine is a strictly Ameri
ran institution, it does set eenfine itself to tb
reproduction of native art. Its mission, is te
cultivate a broad and appreciative art taste, ono
that will discriminate on grounds of intrintio
merit. Thus, while pleadingbefore the patrons
of The Aldine, as a leading characteristic, the
productions of the most noted American artists,
attention will always be given to specimen
from foreign masters, giving subscribers all tho
pleasure and instruction- obtainable from homer
or foreign sources.
lhe artistic illustration of American scenery-
original with The Aldine is an important fea
ture, and its magnificent plates are of a sire
more appropriate to the satisfactory treatment
of details than can be afforded by any inferior
page. The judicious lnterspersionof landsnpe,
marine, figure and animal subjects, sustain an
unabated interest, impossible where the seop
of the work confines the artist too etosely to a
single style of subject. Tbe literature of The
Aldine is a light and graceful accompaniment,
worthy of the artistie features, with only such
technical disquisitions as do not interfere with,
the popular interest of the work.
