A wiilcr in tlicXortliwcatcni Farm
er frives the followiiifj hints to thoe
about to iiurehabc milking stock: A
crumpled horned, full eye, head sniall
ami short, dished face, that is sunk be
tween the eye, kin soft and loose,
deep from the lion to the udder, and a
very tlijn tail.
The question iR often asked by care
ful mothers, -'What will remove grass
staidsfrom children's clothing?" An
exchange says that simply wetting and
rubbing tl.c stained clothe in cold
water will remove all traces of the
grass. Fruit stains will disappear on
the application of boiling hot water.
No soap should be used in either case.
A florictiltural correspondent of
Moore's Iknal cuts good thick paper
into threc-rorncicd pieces, bends them
into the shape of a funnel, fills them
with dirt ami planting a seed in each,
burrics in a box of soil. When the
plants arc ready to remove to the flow
er bed, lift the paper out and plant
like roots. The paper will soon rot,
nml the plants will never wilt.
Mr. Canncll, well-known as an Kng
isli grower of fine fuchsias, in relation
to saving, advises that, when the seed
pods arc thoroughly ripened, they be
partly dried in the sun, after which
they should be cut in halves and quar
ters with a moderate sharp knife, and
each minutely examined. The old
self-colored varietie1!. An abundance
of hollow seed will be found, but good
plump seed is about half the size of
the pansy, and is easily distinguished
ami picked out.
To clear a room of mosquitoes, take
of gum chnmphor a piece about one
third the si?e of a hen egg, and evap
orate it by placing it in a tin pan and
holding it over a lamp or candle take
care that it docs not igiuitc. The
smoke will soon fill the room and ex
pel the mosquitoes. One night not
long since-1 was terribly annoyed by
them, when 1 thought of and tried the
nbovc, after which I never heard of or
saw them that night, and next morn
ing there was not one to be found in
the room.
llorax is the best exterminator jet
discovered. The troblcsoine incct
has a great aversion to it, and will
never return where it has once been
scattered. As the salt is perfectly
harmless to human beings, it is much
to be preferred for this purpose to the
poisuous substance generally used.
Borax is also valuable for laundry
use, instead of soda. Add a handful
of it, powdered, to about ten gallons
of boiling water, and you need uso on
ly half the ordinary allowance of soap.
For laces, cambrics, etc., use an extra
quanity of tho powder. It will not in
jure the texture of the cloth in the
least.
The Journal of Chemistry give the
following simple receipt for the pre
vention of Hies on horses: "Take two
or thrco handful? of walnut leaves, up
on which pour two or three quarts of
cold water ; let it iuftisc one night, and
next morning pour the whole into a
teakettle and let it boil for a quarter
of an hour. When cold it will be tit
for use. Xo more is required than to
moisten a sponge, and before the horse
goes out of the stable let thoso parts
those parts that arc most irratablc be
smeared with the liquid, namely, be
tween the cars, the neck, the Hank etc.
Not only will the gentleman and lady
who rides out for pleasure be benefited
by this, but the coachman, wagoner,
and all other's who uso horses during
the hot months."
If farmeis would save their oat chafl
nnd sift it, an excellent filling for beds
could bo made of it, as it is soft, light,
clastic and very sweet. Itcau be re
newed every year at little cost, while
forchildrens beds it is nice. Keep a
sack or two stuffed full ol oat chaff In
a dry place and then filling is always'
at baud.

Farmcro Keep Accounts.
If there is anything that farmers
neglect to do more than another, it is
keeping of farm accounts. But very
few of them k"cp any account of the
expenses and income pf their farms.
"1-ine upon line and precept upon pie
cept" has been given them upon this
subject, Ly agricultural wi iters and
speakers, but it feems to have had but
little effect. This is a matter of much
importance as many seem to think. X
farmer in order to meet with good
success, o'tight to be able to tell the
cost of each crop that he raises, and
the worth of that nop after it is har
vested. There arc many advantages to be de
rived from the keeping of these ac
counts which fanners would do well
to think over. If a careful aceoupt jf
the expense and the income of the
ftirm is kept, all of the items noted
down so that it can be seen at cucc to
which crop they belong, the fanner
has the means of knowing the exact
cost of every crop which he raises and
can tell at once whether it has been
profitable or not. If it has been un
profitable, and he is a true farmer.and
isa sensible man, he will adopt a differ
ent mode of cultivation, and if it still
continues unprofitable, he will drop it
altogether and substitute some paying
crop. He can tell which are the most
profitable crops, and in this way can
find out what ones he must raise in
order to derive the greatest possible
income from his farm. As it is now
many of our farmers go on year after
year raising crops which are continu
ally running them in debt and thus
diminishing tlio profits.
What a Woman Can do
Here is the was a farmer's daughter
in Concord, Ma., made money in the
poultry businc-s: She commenced
with about sixty fowls in the spring.
From these she raised four hundred
and fifty chickens. When joung she
fed on cracked corn, but when fatten
ing them gave whole corn and Indian
meal. During the season she sold cj;gs
to the amount of :90, and from Sep
tember 20th, to January 17th, she got
ready for maikct 150 pairs of chickens,
which she sold for two hut.dred and
sixty dollars, making in all 350. It
will be seen from this statement what
may be done by proper attention to
poultry, the profit being perhaps
greater than in any branch of farming.
It also shows that the business is one
in which females may engage with
success. The time engaged in caring
for sixty to a hundred hens docs not
average more than an hour or two.
The exercise is light and pleasant, and
the change from household duties
rather agreeable than otherwise.
To Hull Corn.
Take one quart of strong lye, pre
pared by pouting boiling water upon
a peck or more of ashes; add two
quarts of boiling water to it, and put
in the corn ; let it boil until the hulls
begin to start, which you can deter
mine by taking out a few kernels and
washing them in cold water. Skim
out all the corn; rinse it in two or
three waters; put it into cold water
and let it boil up; turn off that water
so as to extract all the lye ; fill up with
boiling water, and cook for two or
three hours slowly ; add salt to your
taste ; let it boil an hour and serve. It
must cook a great while to be palata
ble. To Havo a Good Lawn.
A western horticulturist thus ad
vises for the treatment of worn-out
lawns: First sow over your lawn fine
bone meal at the rate of eight bushels
to the acre, then plaster at the rate of
one bushel to the acre, then cover the
whole half an inch thick with fine gar
den soil, leaf mold, or fine chip mold
from an old woodyard pile, and then
ow clean blue-grass seed at the rate
of two bushels to the acre, and rake
the tt hole with aline tooth rake, fin
ishing Joy rolling. AVo guarantee a
lawn that will stay fresh and green all
summer, no matter how dry the sea
son. It is well known, says an Austra
lian paper, that a little alum dissolved
is very effective in clearing muddy
water; but a short time since some
alum was applied in a manner which,
from its novelty and valuable results,
is worthy of notice. In a place where
water is very scarce at present a little
water was disolvcd in hot water and
thrown in a tub of hot soap sud-. In
a moment the soap curdled, and, ac
companied by the muddy particles,
sank to the bottom, leaving the water
perfectly clear, pure and devoid of
smell. This water was found very
useful for washing clothes again, when
poured off tho sediment. A similiar
result was obtained in a quick manner
by filling a boiler with soap suds,
placing it on tho lire and throwing a
bit of alum into it. When the water
boiled the scum went over and left
the water clear, soft, and as useful for
washing clothes as it had been.
A. L. Kcrwoud, of Wheeling, In
diana, writes : "In traveling over the
county a short time since, I came
across a gcntlcti an living in Harrison
township, who has a very simple, ami
he claims, a certain protection against
the ravages of tho circulio. He has
six trees loaded down with some of
the finest fruit I ever saw. And he
has preserved them by hanging in each
tree two or three bottles of coal oil.
His theory is that the smell of coal oil
is very offensive to the curculio, and
that they will not stay near it. When
the oil has lost its strength, which can
easily be determined, as it will lose its
color, he replenishes the bottles, and
during the entire season he believes be
has not spent more than twenty-five
cents. This is worth a trial.
A tablcspoonful ot black pepper put
in the first water iu which gray aud
black linen arc washed, will keep them
from spotting. It will also keep the
colors of black or colored cambrics or
muslins from running, and docs not
harden the water. A little gum ara
ble imparts a gloss to ordinary starch.
