RoOrs IN WINTER. The Massachusetts,
Plowman recommends to those who are
rearing young animals TO feed out roots
They favor the growth rather than tho fat
tening orauinals and are therefore more
suitable for the young than any kind of
grain would Be. For this purpose the fat
turnip answers wen, and as il is oitcngrOwn
with but little trouble, it is worth laying
up for young stock. Turnips may be buried
under pile Of hay in the barn--Or in the
barn cellar, without a covering.

SUGAR AND MOLlsss roR PSEsTRvrNG
Mar. Tho season Is approaching when
farmers will commence slaughtering and
laying down meat, such as beef and pork,
during the coming year. Almost every one
has some rulo by which he governs himself
in this operation. The editor of the Guilt
vator quotes from the Montreal Witness va
rious rules for curing provisions, from which
we extract the following in regard to the
use OF molassea or sugar in preserving meat I;
The use OF sugar or molasses is gaining
favor among packers, as preserving meat IN
n superior and better manner, having fine
flavor, keeping better and never becoming
rusty, and however old, never excessively
salt. I, has been asserted on high medical
authority that the use Of sugar in curing
meat would prevent that fearful disease, sea
scurvy. II has been used in curing hams
for q long time; indscd, a favored ham can
not be procured without it; but it is of the
greatest importance in curing beef, which is
to bc kept any length of time, or which is
required of fine flavor. II is used IN the
first process along with salt for dried pro-
visionS-say one pound Of sugar or one pint
Of molasses to four pounds Of salt. With
picked meats it is used in the last process
along with the salt, to pack up the mea; Is
the csak, say about One-half of each, sugar
and salt.
In order that our readers may understand
what is meant by frs: process and last pro
cess above named, we should say that th'
manner Of curing Is as follows, no saltpetei
being used; First, the pieces must cOnsist
OF beef, six pounds pieces. Second, tn
salt must be good, and if saltpeter is dcsire'
but very little should be used. Third. TIT
meat should be dry rubbed for thrcc or ioul
days, at least, once a day, To extract a ccr
tain quantity Of water, and to chemical!
alter the meat. Fourth, the meat must b
put into pickle 50 as to cure it sufficiently
in this 1t shOuldy-cmain ten days, or es
it is required to be packed. Fifth, it mus
be well washed with water if noccssar!
scraped or cut. Sixth, packed away i;sslI
rels with coarse salt and package filled ny
with clean pickle. II they are to ba drS
or smoked tho dry salt Is enough. -

hat with its loopings Of lace and ribbon
and her rich travelling dress, harmonizeG
with the rare, English creAminess OF hei
complexion, and altogether, she looked tc
the loving eyes that now rested on her, SC
bright, sparkling, and happy, that they Tor
got everything but her beauty
"GanAina's been saying bad things about
mo, )" said the bride, with a pretty pout'
that any young husband would have thought
worth dozen kisses. snow, Alden, don't
let her frighten you one bit, for I'm going
to be one of the most loving, obedient little
wives in the world and never do thing
you say mustn't, as long as l live."
"Ishrp't say mustn't very often darling
answered the young husband, strokins the
curls that fell out of the little hat. "But
come, Elsie, we shan't be in time for the
cars. Say goodbye to your grandmother,
quick"
I'm be good girl, indeed | will,' whis-
pered the trembling lips, as they drew up to
the grandmother's; and the smiling face
was dim with tears.
"GOd bless you, Elsie, my child!"
And her husband hurried her away.
Elsie Raymond's future must tell the
story of her past life. Both her parents lay
under the spring grass before she had learn
cd to know them, and so she went to her
grandmothcr's heart and home. There. on
ly sunshine lay over her life. The tender,
indulgent grandmother forgot there must
come an hour when the clouds would rise,
and the great life-storms descend upon the
flower that grew up IN such beauty at her
hearth-stone. ....
Elsie had one Of those fine, rich, impulsiyc
natures, that especially require judicious
trimming. This she had never received from
her grandmother, and the under current Of
solf.will and pride in her nature had gained
depth and force, which, in her early girl
hood, only revealed themselves in her inn
patience ofmild rcproof or contradiction
But usually she was 50 loving, so gentle,
so transparent-and, as said, her future
must tell of her past life.
