THE GRAPE ROT.

Mr.. T. V. Peticolas, in a communica-
ton on the grape rot, IN the Cincinnati
Gazette, says he is convinced that this
disease is produced by atmospheric caus-
es, excess of wet, ETC., and not by insects.
In support of This opinion he says:
among my wall-grown vines there
has never been manifested the slightest
tendency 10 rot. Near my house | have
a t~rellis- arbor covered with vines, whose
far-reaching canes also extend over the
entire side of the house, which has a
southern exposure. Now, every season,
the grapes produced by the trellIs por-
ton of the vines have been affected SINH
larly to those in the vineyard, whereas
that projected by the house and growing
from the same vines, has been unparalleled
ed in the magnificent f~ullness and timely
maturation of its crop. The radiant OF
heat from the house at night, together
with the protection afforded the young
punches in the eaI lier stages Of their
growth, explains the whole mystery. An
equalized temperature must be obtained.
In wet seasons especially is the rot most
disastrous, but | am satisfied hat if cul-
tivators could but conirive 10 give their
vines the proper amount Of protection
when the fruit is in lis earliest stages OF
development, tn t even a rainy season af-
forwards would only operate to retard its
r~ipening.
If Mr.. Longworlh, or any other Of those
interested in this department. and whose
experience is 50 extensive with the impor-
lance of the subject, would give the pub
lie a detailed s,alatcment of his expert
enoc, a decided and unanimous opinion
might be established. which would ulii-
mately lead to an efficient remedy. /; Is
more in the hope Of eijci'ine something Ct
this kind than with a desire of paradine
my own views that he above observation,
are Offes ed.

THE SINGING

Rev. Mr., of the Methodist Epis.
copal Church, is a charming singer. He
tells a capital joke at his own expense
On one occasion, Just after he had been
placed upon a new circuit, in riding to an
appointment, he overlook a venerable re,
gro jogging along in the same direction,
when the following colloquy took place
between them:
"Well, old man, where are you travel
ingl"
81 am just a going, Massa, to de meet
in house up de road, sa-"
"Ah, YOU 60 to church, do you ?"
ssSometimes, Massa I'm going to-day
kase de new preacher woi's come on de
cirkit is going 10 be dar, sa."
"What is the name of your new preach
er?"
"Well, / don't know. Massa, zactly, but
| tink his name is" mentioning
something very neal akin to the minister's
cognomen-
"Well, did you ever. see him
"No not yet Massa,"
"Why, then are you so anxious TO goE'
"Why, Massa, ye see; da say he kin
beat the Witckes a singin, do he can't do

AGRICULTURAL DIVISION OF PAT.
ENT 0FFICE-ENGLISH BACON.

Americans visiting England are often
struck with the superiority of English ba.
con over our own, particularly Of that
from Willis and Yorkshire. 1t is believ-
ed that the difference is owing solely 10
the mode of preparation. We publish
the following recipe as furnished by Mr..
Browne. 1t is worthy of the attention OF
our agricultural readers:
"As soon as the bacon comes from the
butchers bands it should have a covering
Of salt, dried and rolled TO a fine powder,
well rubbed in with the hand 10 every
part, using the finger 10 fill every hole
and joint, as it is most important that the
mealshouldtake the salt when quite fresh.
In twelve hours all the brine and damp
salt moi absorbed should be scraped off the
bacon and removed from the vessel and
dry salt added again, as much as needed
TO cover il, as before, and well rubbed in.
This process should be renewed every
twelve hours for three days, when salt
petre should be added, getting off Prevl-
ously all the damp salt and brine as be-
fore, and applyingthe saltPeire asthe COM
mon salt, adding a handful of the latter.
A quarter OF a pound Of saltPetre 10 aside
of bacon weighing seventy pounds is suf-
fcient then mix one pound coarse brown
sugar and one pound of treacle or molas
ses, and pour over The salipetre on the
bacon, adding a liule more common salt
daily for three days, which serves 10
make the pickle keep well, and the whole
liquor should be ladled with q teacup over
the bacon as ofien as convenient, four
times a day for The first Two weeks after
it was first put to the bacon, and then new
er less than twice a day for the remain
der of the time needed for its picking,
which is four weeks, or longer if large
bacon, and iben il should be sent to the
drying house and smoked over a wood
fire "-UniOn.

WHEY OIL.

We may not tie speaking of anything
new to cheese makers when we make
mention of cheese or whey oil for burning
purposes, but it is a new idea 10 US, and
presuming some Of our readers are as ig-
noranl OH that subject as we are, shall
tell all we know about this new slight"
Some dairy men manufacture this oil, but
not for purposes, of burning; most how
ever, throw the whey away.
This oil is white, and has about the con-
s~istency of very sofi-but not liquid
lard. and will burn in a solar lamp or in
any lard lamp. The whey oil is used in
the dairy sections of northern New York,
and makes a very cheap light, even cheap
er than lard.
A friend from Scion, in this county,
says that he makes this oil, selling it for
10 cts. a pound to cheese merchants; who,
after adding a little rosin, use it for rub
bling cheese. This gives the cheese IFS
external gloss and beauty. This oil is
manufactured from the whey, after the
eurd is removed. By putting the whey
into vats, in The course of twenly-four
hours, "a cream appears on the top, which
is skinned off and then churned. The
oil ''comes," as the butter does from milk
cream, and is then put over 10 boil and
soon assumes the appearance of oil, the
watery portions having e%vaporated. Care
should be taken not TO burn it.
There is no reason why every dairy
man should not supply his own house
with all the lamp oil he needs Buckeye
State.

A POINTED INQUIRY.

"COuldn't you get young pork ma'am,
to bake with your beans ?" said Old Rog-
er, somewhat cynicaily, as he sat at the
table one Sunday.
"They told me it was young" said the
landlady."
"Well, ii may be SO, but gray hair is
not a Juvenile feature, by any means, in
our latitude, ma'am," continued he, fish
ing up hair about a foot and a half long
with his fork. "He may have been
young, but he aus have lived a very
wicked life 10 be gray so soon."
As he spoke he locked along the table,
n a slight emotion was visible among
the boarders, and the man who SAT oppo-
site with his mouthful of the edibles,
with which he had been endeavoring to
smother a laugh, grew dark with the ef-
fort, and then collapsed, scattering disn,ay
and crumbs amid the nicely-plated folds
of old Rogers shirt frills.

THE BACHELORS

Two old maids, at shut Of day,
A bachelors body bore away,
With wrinkled brow and matted hair,
And heart that never loved the fair.
Bring briars, they grOaned, bring weeds ~unbloWn,
Bring rankest plants OF name unknown,
Bring Withered boughs from dreamy wild,
To strew the bier of errors child.
And make his grave where the lizards hide,
Where night-shade strews the swamp crerk's side,
Far out Of sight-where gentle Spring
Shall serd no geLtle birds to sing.
His old iack-knife lay with him low.
That cut the string of Cupid's bow;
The sad house. cat shall whine around
His lonely grave il grief profound.
Low lay him who was often ''high,"
Rere, where shall fan no plying eye
For him-for him no loving heart
shall ache-Ior him no tear shall start.
His bloodless limbs shall fall to dust;
His old jack-knife shall waste with rust;
He whom we hide from light Of men,
Shall never fright the babes again.
For We have laid him from the light,
Beneath the ground and out of sight;
But this rude epitaph shall stand
she who to no one gave his handl"

TALL BRAeG1NG.-A sucker specimen,
whose visit TO the State Fair gave him
liberty to stretch the truth slightly respect
ing what he saw on his travels, was de-
failing to a Hoosier the immense business
done in packing beef in the Garden City.
Said he, "they kill million head a week,
and the blood discolors the water in the
lake half a mile from shore" "That's
nothing" replied the HoOsier; at my
uncle's, down in New Albany, they have
a trip hammer, driven by a forty horse
steam power engine, just to knock the
cattle down with and there is SO much
blood, that with it they drive a grist mill
of six run of burrs, and never stop on ac-
count of low water"
