The PAPER Plant in Wisconsin.

Under this head, says the Boston POST
we have before US a description of plant dis
covered in this country by Mrs. A. l.. Beau
mont, of Arena. She has furnished US with a
fine sample Of cotton, and also of fax, from
the same plant, which she describes as fol-
lows:
81 discovered, two years ago, plant that
yields both cotton and fax from the same root,
and believe | am the, first person that ever
cultivated, spun, and knit from it. | am per-
suaded that any article that will make as
good cloth as can be made from this plant viii
make good paper; hence | call it the paper
plant; it can be planted in the spring,
and cut in thefall or winter 1t bleaches
itself white as itstands, and will yield at
least three or four tons to the acre. From
single root that [ transplanted last spring,
there grew twenty large stalks, with three
hundred and five pods, containing the cotton }
with at least sixty seeds in each. From this
root obtained seven ounces of pure cotton and
over half pound of flax. 1t is very heavy
plant, and grows from six to seven feet high.

Cheap Oil for Kitchen Lamps.


We find the fullowing,- the New Eng
land Farmer,-in an old almanac, and think
that, if it will operate stated, 1t would be Of
some CONSEQUENCE in our domestic economy.
To keep good light, at the present high price
of oil, is quite an item of expense, and any sug-
gestion that will put US in the way of reducing
that expense, and of obtaining good light at
the same time, is worthy of consideration
OIL that could be purchased five years ago Cor
1925 per gallon, now sells at 50, and the
dirty whale oil that was then considered unfit
for the most common use, is selling now at
eighty or ninety cents, and even one dollar a
gallon.
Let scraps of fat (including even whatever
bits are left on the dinner-plates) and all drip
pings, be set in cold place. When The crock
is full transfer the fat TO an iron pot, filling it
halfway up with fat, and pour in sufficient
cold water 10 reach the top. Set it over the
fire, and boil and skim it, till the impurities
are removed. Next pour the melted fat into a
large broad pan of cold water, and set it away
to COOL 1t will harden into a cake. Then
take out the cake, and put it away in cool
place. When wanted Tor use. cut off a sufii-
cient quantity, melt by the FIRE till it becomes
liquid, and then fill the lamp with it, as with
lard. 1t will give clear, bright light, quite
equal to that of lard, and better than whale
oil, and it costs nothing but the trouble of pre-
pairing the fat. We highly recommend this
piece of economy

STEERING NY STAR-IGHT.-The Boston
