CIsTERNs.-Cement cisterns ate the best
and cheapest where the soil is not too sandy.
Dig circular hole Of the size desired, SAY
5 or feet in diameter, and 8 to 0 feet deep,
rounding the bottom so rs to give it the
shape Of the bottom of an old-fashioned
iron kettle. Plaster this directly ON the
earth with three coats of water lime cement
made Of one part water lime and two parts
clean, coarse sand. The mortar is mixed o
little at a time, owing to its tendency to
harden quickly. A fiat stone should lie in
the centre of the bottom for the workman to
stand upon. The third coat should be made
quite thin, and is mainly to give a smooth
finish. The top Of the cement wall should
be at least q foot below the intended level of
the surface of the ground, and should be
finished with a rim Of cement extending out.
wards for a foot OF more. Then cover with
sound timber and plank, leaving an opening
large enough for man to pass, for cleansing
and for drawing water. Place waste-pipe
atone side to carry of surplus water, Cover
the plank with a coating Of cement, over
which lay pine shavings, then earth sufficient
to protect the cement from frost and from
damage from jarring.
LIoUD GLUE.-Place in glue pot, or in
a glazed vessel, one quartof water and three
pounds Of hard glue; melt over a gentle
fire and stir up occasionally. When the
glue is all melted, drop in gradually a small
quantity Of nitric acid, when etFervescence
will take place. Nov take it off the fire,
allow it to cool and bottle it It will keep
for years without changing. Il is always
ready for use without melting and Is Of
great value in the household for mending
things when you want to save the pieces"
This is the Celebrated Prepared Glue"
AsHEs ron FRUT TREEs.-If your fruit
trees are infested with vermin, or in q
state Of decline, dig the turf from around
the trunk Of each tree and apply half
bushel Of leached ashes in It's place, piling
them up around the body Of each tree. This
will destroy the vermin and likewise pro
mote the growth Of the trees. If this pro.
cess were repeated annually, you would soon
see q marked Improvement, not only in the
health and growth Of the trees, but also in
The quantity and quality Of fruit.
