A RECIPE WORTH One THOUSAND Dol
LARs.-Take one pound of sal soda and hall
q pound of unslacked lime, put them in a
gallon of water and boil twenty minutes, lei
it stand till cool, then drain of, and put it
in a stone jug or jar. Soak your dirty
clothes over night, or until they are well wet
through, then wiring them out and rub on
plenty of soap, and to one boiler of clothes
well covered over with water, add one tea
cupful of the washing fluid. Boil half an
hour briskly, then wash them thoroughly
through one suds, and rinse well through
two waters, and your clothes will look bet
ter than the old way of washing twice be-
fore boiling.
This is an invaluable recipe, and I do
want every poor tired woman to try it. 1
think with a patent wash tub to do the lit
tie rubbing, the wash woman might take
the last new novel, and compose herself on
the lounge, and let the washing do ITSELF
The woman who can keep secret, has
known this year or two, but her husband
told it while on an electioneering tour.-O.

As fencing timberis becoming scarce, ev-
cry refecting farmer should be casting about
for the material to supply the future. A
method which We b&7e not seen suggested
in our exchanges, we noticed few days
ago, IN Charleston, Portage county, on a
farm formerly belonging to Rev. Caleb Pit
kin, now of the Western Reserve College
at Hudson.
Some twenty years ago, or thereabouts,
he set out a fine row Of elms on the side of
his farm next to thestreet; they are set so
that the trees are at distance of about four
feet form each other; they are now about
ten inches in diameter, and into every third
tree, on each side, are mortices to admit the
end of the boards; the boards are long
enough so that they have to be bent to get
them into the mortices; and when entered
and allowed to straighten, they are firmly
imbeded, aud held by tho mortices at-the
ends, and the centre of the board is nailed to
the centre tree between the two morticed
trees. This makes solid, substantial fence,
and all the repairs it ever requires, is an oc-
easional new board. The trees are in a
thrifty condition, and for many years-cen-
turies-will form posts for fencing without
cost or trouble. Locusts are of quicker
growth, but viii not last, so long. 1t is
cheap, durable, ornamental Ohio Farmsr

TaII PIstoI shootIng. .

Col Hay, of the British army, recently
tried his hand with the Volcanic Repeating
Pistol, aYankee invention. The pistol used
on the occasion was an s-inch barrel, which
discharges nine balls in rapid succession.-
The colonel fred the arm 81 times, making
a number of shots which would do credit to
a riheman. He first fired at an 8-inch di-
ameter target at 100 yards putting nine
balls inside the ring. He then moved back
to distance of 200 yards, and fred nine
balls more hitting the target seven times
He then moved back 100 yards further a
distance of 800 yards from the mark, and
placed five of the nine balls inside the ring
and hitting the "bulTs eye" twice. The
man who beats that may brag.

A bright coal fire looks decidedly cheer
ful this evening, and reminds US that winter
is at hand, and it is high time that wo put
ourselves in complete READINGS for its visit.
The chests of woolcns must be opened with
are,sothat any luckless moth that may have
harbored there, may be safely deposited in
the fire, and not on the carpet, to pursue its
destructive work.
Shake up the the clothes and give them
good airing, and now that the chests are
empty, it will be we'll to fold the thin dress
es and other articles of summer wear that
will not be wanted again and lay them in,
away from all dust and whatever else will
injure them. Don't put any thing away
soiled, nor any thing starched, rs either dirt
or starch will rot them; and articles that
will bear washing, had better first be wash
ed and put away without ironing, as they
will be less yellow and look fresher in the
Spring if freshly ironed.
Are the children's clothes in order for
winterg Don't suffer the little ones to go
insuficiently clad, when the cold weather
first comes on, for they may get cold that
will last them large part of the winter, or
if it does not, may prepare the way for sue
cession of colds to follow after. School, too,
will commence soon, and all the children
that are to attend it, should commence at
the first if they wish to reap all the profit.
So if the winter clothes are not yet ready,
would it not be we'll to hire little assist
ance, and have it done speedily9
Dress the children warmly, remembering
the old injunction to keep the head cool and
feet warm, for tho order is too commonly re-
versed. Do not leave bare necks, legs and
arms-they are not pretty, for they suggest
the idea of discomfort, and certainly they
expose and must injure the health. The
idea that it will harden them, is a great er-
ror; it will be much more likely to lay them
in their graves
But while insisting that children should
be dressed warmly, we would also urge that
they should not be confined too closely to
the house. Aceustom them to the outdoor
air before it becomes intensely cold, and
keep it up through the season. 1t will do
them good, if warmly dressed. See that
the house is "banked up" and put listing
on the bottom of the doors, so that the floor
may bc warm enough for the little ones to
play on without getting cold feet. J. C. B.

FALL PLOWENG.

In autumn, the team having become in
ured to work through the summer, is moro
vigorous and better prepared for labor thar
in the spring, and other farm work is les.
pressing in its demands upon the time and
attention than in that bustling period. Let
all the blowing be'done which is possible in
the fall, and still the spring work would give
abundant employment to the farmer and
his teams, in drawing, cross-plowing, cult
waiting, narrowing, etc.
In the fall low moist lands are generally
in better condition for ploEing than in the
Spring time. Stiff, heavy soils, pIowed in
autumn, undergo by the action OF water
and frost, a more thorough disinteregation
-clays are pulyerized and heavy loans and
hard pan lands are acted upon in a like man
ner and with like benefit.
Heavy, coarse swards, full of rank weeds
and grasses, can be better subdued by plow-
ing in the fall-their roots are more apt to
die out, and far less liable to sprout again,
than when plowed in the spring, The turf
Is better prepared, by its more advanced
state Of decay, for the use of the crops which
may be sown or planted upon it.
Fall plowing disturbs tho winter arrange
ments Of numerous worms and insects and
must destroy large number of these pests,
and also their larvae.
The principal objections to fall blowing
rethese:
The loss of that fresh friable condition
readily permeable TO air and moisture, and
the consolidation of the soil by long expos
ure to changing and stormy weather. This
on soils of light character, is a very serious
objection to plowing in autumn.
The loss of vegetable matter and the gas
es ofthe same while in state of decay is
another disadvantage. The latter is but
small loss, if the work is done late in the
fall, but often, on hill sides, large part of
the soluble and floating organic matter is
washed away BY the heavy rains of winter
and early spring time. The soil is also con-
solidated by the same influences. Heavy
swards thus situated would sustain less in
jury than light swards or stubble lands.
The advantages and disadvantages of this
practice may be appropriately followed by
brief directions for performing the work:
Do it in the best manner.
Throw up low lands in narrow beds and
cut cross furows and drains sufficient to car
ry off at once all the surface water. This
viii ,obyiate one great objection to fall plow-
ing.
Plow deep and narrow furrows-such !
will best secure the eSeion of the ameliorat-
ing influence of frost upon the soil. A
rough broken surface is better than smooth /
one for this purpose.-Rsral New Yorker.

EeYPTIAN CoRN.-We were presented
yesterday with an ear of Egytian corn
grown from seed found in the hand of a
mummy, by Mr. W. R. Bristow, Bushwick
Cross Roads, Brooklyn, in whose grounds
it was raised. A stout stem supports the
ear, which consists of numerous little grain
bearing branches craving very close togeth-
er in bushy tapering form, and exceeding
in size a large pine apple. The grain, is
very numerous, resembles the kernel of
wheat and is full of farinaceous matter. A
single ear would supply seed enough to
plant small garden. 1t is interesting to
reflect that this grain. is now reproduced
from seed grown, perhaps in the remote time
when the wise Joseph hpsbanded the crops
of Egypt, during the seven years of plenty,
to give the people food during the succeed
ing years of famine.-M y. Sun.

Agricultural Fairs.

The following remarks from the conclu-
sion of an article on this subject in the Phil
adelpbia- Ledger Of a recent date:
"T6ere is danger, however, that the whole
system may be ruined, by the tendency to
transform fairs into temporary race courses.
We see with regret, an increasing proclivity
intlis direction. Every year, at our princi-
pie fairs, the race track is made larger, while
the stalls for eatssiie are made smaller. Go
to any fair, the one. at Powelton, for instance
and you will see tens of thousands breath
lessly watching Che struggle between compe-
ting horses, while only few hundreds are
to be seen, scattered here and there, on 9th
er parts Of the ground The effect of this
surely, IS not to foster love of agriculture,
but rather to implant passion for horse
racing. Of course, we are aware of the
reason which induces those who get up fairs
to make the horses track so prominent; they
wish to make their fair pay, and they find
this the readiest method. Bnt we submit
that the excessive development given to
this feature is at var With the true purpose
Of such fairs, and that sooner or later, will
bring thom into discredit, if not lead to
their decline"

HoGs.-The Burlington Qowa) Gazette
says: awe learn from those who have taken
the pains to inform themselves, on the sub
iect, that the hog crop of this State will be
fully equal, if not larger than it was last
year. We are inclined to think that the
stock of hogs will be much larger than any
previous year, from the fact that greater
quantity of land is now under cultivation
and for the past three years the corn crop
has been good. We know that there will
be a large increase in the counties west of
us. As regards prices, we cannot say at
what figure the season will open"

CanDREN.-No man can tell but he that
loves his children, how many delicious ac-
cents make a mans heart dance in the pref
ty conversation of those dear pledges; their
childishness, their imperfections, their neces-
sites, are so many little emanations of Joy
and comfort to him that delight in their
persons and society; but he that loves not
bis wife and children. feeds a lioness at
home, and broods nest of sorrows: and
blessing itself cannot make him happy.
