Take as much milk-warm water as you will
want to make your batch Of bread, and salt
it about twice as salt as you would if you
were going to mix the same quantity into SAL

a paste about as thick US griddIe cake dough
Put this paste into tin pail aud set the pal,
into pot of warm water on the stone hearth
where the water in the pot will keep abou.
milk warm all the time. This will give tn
paste an even temperature.
In four or five hours the paste will rise
and foam like yeast. TheD turn it into your
mixing pan and mix in flour enough to make
your dough for bread and mould it in your
pan ready for baking. Set the pans in Il
warm place, under or about the stove, and
cover them over with clean cloth or paper
and let it rise, which will take about two
hours, and as soon as it is fairly raised put J.
into hot oven and bake it quickly and hoyt

Wintering Plants.

Many of our Horticultural readers, who
love the companionship of few plants to-
break the dull monotony OF tho winter sea-
son, have not the means or desire to burden
themselves with the care attendant on a
greenhouse, yet they feel grieyed to part
on the first frosty morning with all that was
gay and beautiful in their geraniums, hello
tropes, salvias, ycr5cnas, lantanas, and many
additional tayoIitcs. 1t is question with
some of them whether it may not be better
to let them die, as it will only cost few dol
lars to renew them in the spring, than to fret
and worry over them during the winter with
out any suitable place to keep them, lumber
ing up rooms, and closets, aid cellars. While
there are good reasons for this course, there
are a number who prefer the trouble, and who
will spend large amount of care to pre-,
serve them. 10 these we would say, pre-
pare timely for the taking up and pottiug
Of any of those bedding plants which you
may desire to keep over the winter. If al

Kindness 10 Animals

ness TO domestic animals Humanity alone
would seem to urge sufficient plea for the ami
mails we rear. Bat this does not ALWAYS secure
to our domestic animals the kind treatment
they should have a. our hands. Men Of hu-
man feelings often abuse animals WITH whin

Working animals are often abused with over
work, CALLED with bad yokes and harness, with
the oft-repeated stroke Of the lash, till thew
seem almost Indifferent to the pain Of blows
and gals A good old friend of ours who
has been successful farmer for yearly forty
years gives it as his opinion that men commit
more sin in the 81 ght Of God in the abuse Of
animals than in all other ways put together.
See the jaded horses, the stihened and worn
out oxen, the poor scrawny cows, the starved
hogs all over the country. Somebody has
abused them. Sec the great whips, spurs and
other instruments Of torture everywhere in
use. With good feed and kind treatment these
are never needed in WORKING animal. Thov

Corned iBeef

Who is not fond of good corncd bccf?-
Understand me, mean good article, well
cooked. do not mean a poor article, half
cooked. Those who answer in the negative
am sure never had the good fortune to taste
Of this handspring Of human nourishment.-
Talk about beef steak and fried sausage, or
any other kind of fried meats, they all sink
into insigoifcance when compared with we'll
cooked corncd beef There are, however,
two or three things to be done in order to
procure this great luxury Of the table. In
the first place, then, do not get Your meat too
salt, it makes it tough and tastoless. Donot
allow it to remain over two weeks in the first
Brine for it takes up all the blood that was
i'll the meat, and consequently ought to be
drained off, as the meat will be much more
likely to be injured than it will when scpa-
rated and replaced with froSh-madc brine,
but more especially in warm weather. In
this way it will keep with just sufficient salt
to season it, In the second place, the cook
ing is of just as much importance as the
corning; it should be boiled at least four
hours, or until it can be cut and eaten as
readily as piece of soft bread. Not one
half of the domestics cook their meat long
enough. Try it once, and you will see the
difference. Meat prepared in this way can
be eaten with relish, and is easily digcsted,
giving nourishmcnt and strength to the body.
But fried meats or meats hall-cooked, can
not be properly masticated or prepared for
the action Of the stomach, and are among
the most indigestiblo articles of nourishmcnt
Some persons are always in too much Of a
hurry or too lazy to chew their food, thereby
fayoring their teeth, and throwing the respon-
sibIity upon the stomach. Frequent abuses
of this important organ develop disease, and
tie individual is said to have dyspepsia with
all its attendant evils Therefore, spare not
the cooking-you will have the less chew Ing
aud the full advantage of the food.

the grain, too, is moro improved in quality

and finally produced in the shape We now
see them. These were all wild grasses and
vines collected by various observing individ-
uals, submitted to the trial of culture, and
perfected by the ingenious hand Of the hus-
bandman.
Instead Of ef~, full, large grain of

This story is most probably IA fabrication.
WOOD CoUNTY-On the Goth ult. an

son was set on fire last Sunday night, the 5th
INST, and was almost entirely consumed
Every house IN the square, except one, inclu-
ding all the business houses in the place, was
destroyed.
The people Of Henderson, our. informant
says, put no faith in the reported conspiracy.
and neglected to appoint patrol or keep
watch. The fire was discovered on Sunday
night about nine o'clock No clue had been
discovered to the perpetrators of the deed.
PREACHER HUNG AT VEAL's STATION
The Forth Chief, of the / st inst, has the fol.

Of three hundred men condemned him.
