BucKwHEAT.-Let every farmer who regards

cation of their appetites-put in patch Of this
grain as speedily as possible, and his good wife,
in the superiority of her cakes, will make him
confess that there is no accompaniment for a
winter breakfast. equal to bread made from Buck
wheat But Independent of its good qualities as
a table luxury, it has other things to recommend
it. II is the best thing on which hens can be fed
in the winter, the large quantity of lime which it
contains contributing greatly towards the forma-
tion Of the shell of the egg, and thus imparng to
the hen increased capacity for laying at that period

Composition for rendering Boots and Shoes
waterproof and duraLic.-Take one pint of boil
ed inseed oil, two ounces Of common beeswax,
and half an ounce Of Burgundy pitch; let them be
carefully melted over slow fire. With this mix
ture, new boots and shoes are to be rubbed, either
in the sun or at little distance from the fire,
with sponge or brush. This operation should
be repeated, without wearing them, as often as
they become dry, until they are fully saturated,
which will require four or five times brushing; by
this the leather becomes impervious to water. The
boot or shoe thus prepared. lasts longer than COM
mon leather, it acquiring such pliability and
so(,ness that il will never shrvel nor grow hard;
and in that state, is the most e1ectua preventive
against colds. catarrlis. cholcs, &c. 1t is neces.

will become too soft, and wear out much sooner
