and rather Unexpectedly by his wife, and found
the parlor doors all locked. 1t being an unusual

that she was inside. He proceeded to get in, and
found his wife very much disordered, dshevelled,
etc. He asked the cause of such extrs ordinary
proceeding and appearance, and she answered,
Ave been frying doughnuts" However, on
going into the back paror, much against his
wife's wish, he discovered the male individual

Bsa5- An inquisitive Yankee was standing at a
tavern door, in the lower part of Jersey, watch
ing funeral pass by. At the head of it was a
large manure cart, moving along very slowly,
and making no offer to turn out for the process
sion. The Yankee was astonishcd at this want
of attention on the part of the driver of said
cart, and turning TO Philadelphian, who was
standing by, he asked;
{" guess the folks amt very perite about
here; Mt hum, they always turn out for tu-
neral"
"Oh, that's part of the procession" answered
the Philadelphian, gravely.
Du tell. You don't say so? Heow" ex-
claimed the astonished Yankee.
Why, you see its very poor sandy soil about
here, and nothing comes up they plant, unless
they manure it well, SO when they bury poor
fellow, they throw whole cart-load in the
grave, TO make him rise at judgment day !"
1t would, no doubt, be much better for the
future condition of many of the New Jerseymea
ifthe manure were left out.

As the cemetery had been laid out some time
previous to the construction of the plank road,
ii was made one of the conditions of the compa-
nys charter that all future professions should go
back and forth free. One day as Dr. Price, a
celebrated physician, stopped to pay his toll, he
remarked to the gate-keeper:
Considering the benevolent character of our
profession, think you ought to let US pass free
of charge.
"No, no, DOCTOR" the keeper readily replied,
"we couldn't afford that. You send too many
dead heads through here as it is"
The doctor paid his bill, and never asked any
favors after that

OF my fellow creatures who may be suffering

short description fmy case. Several years ago
my health began to fail. was attacked by gen.

do nothing for me except to smooth my path to
the grave, when most fortunately, applied to
Dr. l.. j. Czapkay, and am now well and per-
fectly sound man. 1t is difficult for me to ex-
press the emotions of deepest gratitude expert
ence when realizing the immeasurable service I
have received at the hands of Dr. Czapkay, and
feel rejoiced that it is at least in my power to
tender this feeble recognition Of his great skill
and capacity. To the afflicted | would say, do
not despair for whatever may be the nature OF

lief by applying to Dr. L. j. Czapkay. "There

Items for the Farm and Kitchen.

So1r Your Grain-Now is the time to begin
the earth will break up mellow and fine at
later period, it will be too wet and then It is
injurious TO plow. Plow as early as possible,
and plow deep; plow and cross plow. Do this
on bright sunny days. Then a double good will
be attained. After the land is well prepared
put in the grain; sow enough seed. If wheat
be sure to blue-stone your seed. The quantity
OF blue-stone required, is one-fourth of pound
TO bushel, and soak twelve, eighteen, or twen-
ty-four hours according TO the condition of the
wheat and the weather. No wheat should be
pnt into the ground, that is not protected from
the smut by blue-stone, or briue, or lime, or
mixtures of each. In light soil, Ioll in the seed
after it has been well narrowed. Do not object
to do all such work well. Wheat put in upon
high ground, cannot be planted too early
Farmer.
Hop Groping.-Hop- growing will be quite a
business in California, as we can grow finer
purer, cleaner, and stronger-havored Hops than
any other State. Our weather being dry, the
Hop natures and ripens cleaner and handsomer,
and contains greater amount of strength than
any Hops that can be imported. We noticed
large lot of imported Hops recently sent back to
the Atlantic States, as unfit for use having lost
their virtue by age and exposure; while those
grown here will command ttrice the price of any
imported. Will not our cultiyatorS look to this
fact ?-Cal Farpser
Sugar Beet Now is the time to think of pre-
pairing the ground for early plantation of the
Sugar Beet. By the early planters, an early
harvest can be had for Dairy Stock, and the
same land can be again used for second crop;
and, when properly prepared and cared for, one
hundred tons thus be raised to the acre.
4 Reltsh.-If you want a dish for three or
FOUR for an evening relish, take some eggs ac-
cording to the number of persons TO be served
break them into 2 pan, add small piece of
butter, a little salt and cayenne pepper. Stir it
on the fire till it begins to thcken, then stir in
grated cheese, quontum sudfct. Drop tea
spoonful en- battered toast and serve hot
Homestead
Fruit Pies.-The acid in fruit pies may be
neutraized by adding to each as much carbonate
of soda as will cover twenty-five cent piece
This simple precauton, which does not affect
the flavor of the fruit will prevent much sick
ness. save much sugar otherwise needed to rem
der the sour sweet.-Scimtifc American.
Tu,nip Pie.-Take turnip and pare and boil ;
add teaspoonful of tartaric acid and cup of
sugar season and bake as an apple pie.
