How 70 Make WhiteWash.

The season for renovating houses has arrived,
and whitswash brushes are beginning to be in
motion. Some Of our readers may be compelled
to make their own whitewash, and use the brush
themselves. A receipt for nice article may
net therefore, come amiss. We find one in the
Buffalo Commercial Advertiser, which appears
to be the thing desired. 1t is as follows: Slack
quick-lime in boiling water, stirring it until
Stacked. Then dissolve in water, white vitriol,
(sulphate Of zinc,J which you get at the drug
gist's, at the rate of two pounds Of zinc to half
a barrel of whitewash, making it of the consis-
teney Of rich milk. This sulphate Of zinc will
cause the wash to harden and prevent the lime
from rubbing of. A pound Of fine salt should
be thrown into il.

The Right Time to skim Milk,

"Countrywoman" says, in the Rural New Yor
ker, "is when the milk begins to sour in the bot
tom of the pans. Then the cream is al at the
surface, and should at once be removed, with as
little of the the milk as possible. If allowed
to remain until the acid reaches the cream, or
to become thick, it diminishes the cream, and
impairs it in quality. That housewife or
dairy-maid who thinks TO obtain greater
quantity by allowing the milk to stand beyond
that time, labors under a most egregious mis-
take. Any one who doubts this has only to try
IL to prove the truth of this assertion. Milk
should be looked at, at least three fines day.

How the Bite of Dog should be Treat

Gus
DR.. Stephen Ware, of Boston, in his testimo-
nv in a recent case which grew out Of injuries
from the bite of dog, furnished the following
valuable advice:
In the case of bite by dog where the
teeth of the animal penetrated the flesh, whether
the dog was known to be mad or not, be should
use the same precautions. He should wash the
wound with warm water, extract all the Vi
rus possible by sucking the wound with bis lips,
and then cauteriEe it deeply with the caustic
most readily obtained, but should use potash IL
il could be procured at once. The time suti-
cient in which the effects of the bite of rabid
dog would be seen varied frem two to three days
to as many years, but If no effects were felt af
ter two or three months As general thing the
patient might feel himself safe. Bites made
through clothing are seldom productive Of much
harm, as even il the dog is mad the clothing
absorbs the virus before the teeth reach the flesh
Most Of all the fatal cases occurred where the
person was bitten on some naked part. Con
corning the possibility Of cure in a real case Of
hydrophobia, nothing was said.

Ammi AmmidoUn.

Ammi AmmidoWn started forth t'othsr even

it was the hot room or hot rum that caused a
rush Of blood to Ammi's head, and converted
his stomach into an axis upon which his head
and heels revolved, is not fixed "fact." But,
Ammi was found-"picked up" by Waterman,
making very circuitous stretches for Cowes and
a market. So confused was he, that upon be-
ing questioned by Dogbery as 70 who he was,
and what it was all about, Ammi got dreadfully
mixed up!
"Ammi AmmidoWn, (hic,) used to be-"
ibid, eh1 Well, who are you noW7"
"Ammi (hic) Ammi Ammidown, (hic,) old

"You amt down, get, old feller," says Dog

And poor Ammi AmmidoWn was taken down
below, and wrapt up in 4 straw quilt, to refresh
hisknovledge box by quiet snooze on the
wiry edges Of deal boards.

Couldn't Forgive Noah.

An old fellow, who became tired of his life,
thought he might commit suicide, but he did
not wish to 60 without first forgiTing all his en-
emies. So, cOgitating within himself, he at last
removed the moose from his neck, saying:
"NO-'twon't do-can't go. Inever can nor

10 Save SQUASH and Melon Seeds Pure.

To Save Squash and Melon Seeds Pure
L. L. Langstroth writes the Rural New Yor-
ker The following method Of obtaining pure
seed, where different kinds Of melons, squashes
and cucumbers we're raised on q small plot Of
ground, was practiced by me about twenty Tsars
ago:
Rise in the morning by break Of day, before
the bees are abroad. Select number Of fe-
male blossoms which have opened during the
night. They may be known by growing on the
end Of the young squash, melon, &C., while the
male blossoms ("falss blows'' as they are often
ealled) have no fruit. Scatter the pollen Of the
male blossoms upon the stamens of the female
ones and carefully cover the latter with nillinet,
or anything which will protect them from the
visits Of the bees. A piece of cotton cloth or
even a squash leaf, kept in place by a few clods
Of earth, will answer a good purpose. When
the blossom withers. the cover may be removed
and the fruit marked by a cOlored string tied
loosely around the vine.

Simple Mode of Ascertaining Interest

Simple Mode of Ascertaining Interest.
A new mode of computing interest at six per
cent. has been published, which appears simple.
Multiply any given number of dollars BY the
number Of days Of interest desired; separate
the right hand figure and divide by six, the re-
suit is the true interest of such sum for such
number of days at six per cent. This rule is
so simple and so true, according to all business
usage, that every banker, broker, merchant and
clerk, should post it up for referesce and use.
There being no such thing as fraction in it,
there is scarcely any liability to error or mistake.
By no arithmetical process can so decided infor-
ration be obtained with so few figures.

How to Preserve a Piano.

valuable article under the above head, which
owners Of pianos would do well to peruse. One
paragraph struck Us as particularly truthful,
to-Wit: "Amateur pianists would injura their
pianos less, and crafty their bearers more, If
they would refrain from striking the keys with
such force as the majority of them do; a light
touch with judicious use of the loud pedal,
will yied far better and equally as full tone

Soil for Fruit Trees.

Fine fruit can only be grown upon a soil nat

or a very loose peaty one never produces fine
fruit. Sandy soils, gravely soils, or clayey Soils
as well as what are called lOamy soils, can all
be made to grow fine fruit, If properly cultiva-
ted, provided the Esb-soil is porous enough to
permit the water to escape rapidly downwards
