BILE sleeping places, and although they some
times wallOw in the mud in hot weather to
get on a coat which protects them from the
flies, they are neat in their habits when
propealy treated.
There Is no reason apparent to us why
their flesh is not as wholesom as that of any
animal used as our food. We have always
used it freely, and have found it just as
easy of digestion as beef or mutton, The
princip pal reason we think, why many persons
speak against it, is that they eat too muck at
once 1t is SO delicious when properly cook
ed, and well sustained with cranberry sauce
or current jelly, that pound or two at one
meal, would be quite likely to bring on some
grunttng, or a nightmare during the hours
of sleep. Taken sparingly, morning or noon,
it will be found nutritious, easy of digestion,
and exceedingly palatable to most persons.
We have, more than once, expressed the
opinion that our people eat too much meat
in warm westher,--that once day is often
enough. There is, however, great difference
In persons in this respect some, even in
childhood, always preferring animal diet TO
vegetable, and others prefering the Vegetable !;
and this preference continues through life,
and if not gratifed the health seems to suffer
Halls Journal Of Health has a sensible article
on eating pork, in which our views are well
expressed, as follows =
- There is no trouble in eating pork in
cold climate. 1t is needed-or some fatty
meat, for the support of life, while at the
South, vegetable diet is better. But whether
the hog should be eaten, depends ON the
manner in which he is kept If he be kept
as mere scavenger on filth and rottenness,
the meat would be unfit to eat, as its food
must enter into it's composition. We see this
in the difference between the hogs fed on
acorns.and those fed on corn. Any animal
that lives upon the filth and waste of cities,
should be rejected as food. But if the hog
can be kept cleanly and on proper food, pork
is as healthy as beef, or poultry, or fish,"

A SWEET AND Sour APPLK.--Capt Benja-

is made up of alternate sections of sweet and
sour, each section including about one-eight

the sections are regular and vary but little,
if any, in different apples, and they are always
distinct. In size, form and keeping propen-

the apples, but the tree was blown down, and
now, think, there are none to be found only
IN Mr.. Aliens orchard; Many time have
seen my father, when he had company, sur
prise them by cutting first piece of sour
apple for them to taste, and adjoining that a
piece of sweet, from the same apple. The
tree now in Mr.. Aliens orchard was grated
many years ago, but think no one knows
where the scions came from. How was such
a variety produced ? Was it a natural
growth from the seed, or was it produced by
artificial means? think it must have been
done by artificial means, but what those
means were would probably need some ex-
periments to prove.-Z. A. Gilbert, in Name

BEET SUGAR IN GERMANY-A German agri-
cultural journal gives an interesting account
of the beet sugar business in that country
Fields of beets of from two to three hundred
acres are often seen there. The beets are
drilled in rows about fifteen inches apart and
the whole labor of cultivation performed by
the hoe. The women and men work in gangs
of twenty or more. The men get from six
teen to nineteen cents per day and the wo-
men from thirteen to ffteen-working four
teen hours. The manufactures for this sugar
are on correspondingly large scale. some of
them employinga thousand hands. The beets
are brought from the field and elevated to the
upper story of high building, where they
are cleaned, crushed and filtered. the juice
descending from story to story, undergoing
refining process by the way till it reaches the
lower one in the shape Of sugar cone two
and half feet in length. 1t is a very nice
article and worth at the factory about ten
cents per pound. 1t takes eight days from
the time of crushing the beets till the sugar
is dried sufficiently for market. One of these
establishments turned out six millions of
pounds last year with the help of six hun
dred hands.

Teh Irish Farmers Gazette gives the fol-
lowing remedy for sore feet in sheep Pare
away all loose horn about the feet without
drawing blood, and anoint them with butyr
OF antimony, keeping the sheep on dry stand
ing for few hours afterwards.
A correspondent of an Ohio paper gives the
following his cure for warts on cattle or
horses Take a small quantity of blue vitrol
pulverize it, and add enough water to make
it into paste rub the warts over with this
once or twice which will effectually cure
them,
DR.. j. r. Nichols, editor of the Boston
Journal Of Chemistry, says that lard is adul-
terated to an extent hardly sus pected by deal
ers and consumers. He has recently examined
specimena which contained 80 per cent. of
water, terra alba, parafine, and other sub
stances.
A short time since some boys were play
ing hide and seek in the barn of VIM. b.
Kennison, of Norridgewock, Ne, one of them
crawled in behind the hay NOW TO hide, and
came upon hens nest containing one hun
dred and eight eggs, all good and sound.
Our emigrants from the Southern States to
Brazil say that the country is good for cattle,
sheep, sugar cane, coffee, cotton in short,
good for everything except ones family.
A newspaper item says the worst cases of
chilblains may be cured by covering the af-
fected part with old linen, either by lining
the stockings or otherwise.
1t may surprise many to learn, what is
nevertheless fact, that fully one-third of
the whole amount of sugar consumed in the
world is manufactured from beets.

A Confession.
BY ALICE CARY.

l know little damsel
As light of foot as the air,
And with smile as gay
As tn sun o. tn May
And clouds Of golden hair
She sings with the larks at morning,
And sings with the doves at cen,
And her checks they shine
Like a rose on the vine,
And her name is Charlamine.
To plague me and to please me
She knows a thousand arts,
And against my will
/ love her still
With all my heart of hearts
L know another damsel
With eyelids lowly weighed,
And so pale is she
That she seems to me
Like a blossom blown in the shade.
Her hands are white as charity,
And her voice is low and sweet,
And she runneth quick
To the sinful and sick,
And her name is Marguerite.
The broken and bowed in spirit
She maketh straight and whole,
And | sit at her knee
And she sings to me.
And | love her with all nv soul.
know lofty lady.
And her name is Helanore,
And tn King 9th Sky
In her lap doth lie
When she stitch at her door.
Her shoulder is curved like an eagles wing
When he riseth on his way,
And my two little maids
They lay in braids
Her dark locks, day by day.
Her heart in the folds of her kerchief,
1t doth not fall nor rise,
And afar wait
At her royal gate,
And love hor with my eyes
Now you that are wise in lnve-lnre,
come teach your arts to me,
For each of these darling damsels
Is as sweet she can be
And if | wed with Charlamine
OF the airy little feet,
l shall sicken and sigh,
L shall droop and die,
For my gentle Marguerite
And if | wed with Marguerite,
Whom l so much adore,
| shall long to 90
From her hand of snow
To my Lady Helanore
And if wed with Helanore,
Whom with my eyes love,
'Gainst all that is right,
In my own despite,
shall false and faithless prove.
