Corn Husks for Beds.

Do our farmer readers know that the soft
'hnsks Of Indian corn are the very best native
product for beds? Feathers may be all well
enough for geese and ducks, Of both barn
yard and the household, but for bed wheraon
sensible man, woman or child is to repose
and be refreshed, less enervatng material
should be chosen, aud as one which every far
meT can have Of his own production, there is
noth.hgequa tosthehusks Of corn. They are
soft enough for all practical purposes, highly
elastic and free from dust and unwholesome
odors. These desirable qualities, taken in con-
nsption withthe prime consideration of cheap
Aess'and home production, should lead every
rural household to stock their beds with corn
husks --
And while selecting this material for the
main beds; lay aside the finest and softest in
ner husks to make pillows, for they are equal
ly superior for pillows as well as beds. For
this latter purpose the hnsks should be split
in fine shreds, which can be done on fine
hackle, or even with fork. There are no
nervous headaches in ahask pillow, any more
than there are spinal affections in husls bed
As this is the season for huskng corn, let the
prudent housekeeper see to it that there are
plenty of husks saved for beds and pillows.
