will De frozen Some still, clear night, Jack
Frost will steal into the cellar, ana turn The
apples and potatoes into SO many stones He
will also find his way into the lady's parlor or
chamber, where she keeps her hOuse-piauts,
aud ali NE! next morning, her sweet peis will
be as rigid as the artificial flowers OO her bon
net The bundle of trees which | ordered so
late, from-& Cos. nursery, will be de-
tained on the way, aud shall receive them
all frozen together. as hard as logs
Now. what shall be done in these several
cases? Shall the potatoes and apples De
drenched with warm water to take out the
frost? No; cover them with old mats or car
pets, and la: them thaw out as gradually as
possible Aud the dear flowers? D3at hur-
II them into warm room to thaw by the
eide Of stove, as you would a frost bitten
chicken Let them remain where they are
frozen; close the window shutters or drop the
curtains, so as TO make the room quite dark,
then sprinkle the plants with cold water dI-
rect from the cistern. and wait for the result
Do not allow the room to become warmer than
$50 for twenty four hours If few drops of
spirits os campLor are thrown into the dish Of
water before sprinkiiug. it will be all the bet
ter. We treated dozen plants in this way
last winter, aud the frost was so severe that
the water froze in drops on the leaves as We
sprinkled them, but by keeping the room dark
and cool an entire day, nearly every plant
came out unharmcd We remember in par
ticular, fuchsia which was ia full flower at
the time of the freezing; a week after it was
still covered with blooms neigbborng

large lot OF gerauiums frozen. In his ankle

The package of frozed trees must be taken
to the garden, trench dug large aud deep
enough to receive them root aud branch, aud
then they should be covered with soil The
gradual thawing ia the dark will undoubtedly
save them -Americun Agricuturist.

why DO Animals need salt.

Prof. James f johnson, of Scotland, says:
Upwards of half the saline matter of the
blood Csc per cent, consists of common salt;
and as this is partly discharged every day
through the skin aud kidneys, the necessity
of continued supplies oft TO the healthy body
becomes sufficiently obvious The bile also
contains soda Gone of the ingredients of saitl
as special and indispensable constituent. aud
so do all the cartilsges of the body Stint the
supply of salt therefore, aud neither will the
bile be able properly to assist digestion, nor
the eartillages to be built up again as fast as
they naturally waste"
Il IS better to place salt where stock can
hare free access TO It. than to give it occa-
siouai!y in large quantities. They will help
themselves to what they need if allowed to do
40 az pleasure; otherwise, when they become
salt hungry" they may take more than is
wholesome.
