Cheap and Good Sm0k e-II0use.

No farmer should be without q good
smoke house, and such one as will be fire
proof and toerably secure from thieves
Fifty hams can be. smoked at onetime i'll a
smoke house seven by eight feet square,
Mine is six by seven, and is large enough
for most farmers. l first dug all the ground
ont below where the frost would reach, and
filled it up to the surface with small stones.
On this laid my brick floor, in lime NOR
tar. The walls are brick eight inches
thick, and seven feet high, with a door on
one side two feet wide. The door should
be made of wood and lined with sheet iron.
For the top put on joists, two by four, set
up cdgewise, and eight and 4 half inches
from centre to centre, covered with brick,
and put on a heavy coat of mortar. | built 4
small chimney on the top in the centre,
arching it over and covering it with single
roof in the usual way. An arch should be
built on the outside. with small iron door
to shut it up, similar to a stove door,
with a hole from the arch through the wall
of the smoke-housc, and an iron CRATE over
it. The arch is much more convenient and
better to put the fire in, than to build fire
inside the smokchouse, and the chimney
causes a draft through into the smoke. house.
Good corncobs or hickory wood are, the best
materials to make a smoke for hams. The
cost of such smoke-house as | described is
about $50.

Spinach.

Tc have spinach at its best, it should be
cooked in very little water. Wash, and
place it in a saucepan with only the water
that adheres to the leaves, add lump of
butter, and stew gently, with the pan close
ly covered, until tender. Take out, chop
fine, and return so the saucepan with more
butter-no matter how much, hardly, for
spinach will allow of the use of large guam
tity, if one has it to spare. Seasoning of
salt and pepper may added-some use nut
meg-heat up again, and serve. 1t is very
common to garnsh or ornament the dish
with slices Of cold boiled eggs.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1868-08-22
The CauIi6Ower.

Wash the head, and put it into a pot of
boiling water that has been slightly salt ed,
and let it boil until the stem end becomes
soft. Remove with skinner, as it is too
tender to take up with fork, place upon
dish, and pour over a dressing of drawn but
ter-the simple sauce made with butter,
flour, and water,-and that's all there is of
it, except to serve it. 1t is no more trouble
than cabbage, but vastly more delicate to the
taste and digestibe in the stomach. Many
eat it just as served, with the butter dress
ing. while others prefer to use vinegar. as
with cabbage. TO spoil cauliaower, boil it
with meat

FEVER IN CATTLE. -When your animal
has fever all stimulating articles are to be
avoided. Bleeding to reduce the circula-
ton; purgng for removing irritating sub
stances from the bowels; cooling drinks to
allay thirst and supply decreased secretions !;
rest and quiet to tone down the system, are
what common sense would seem to require.
This is safer than to cram the animal with
multiplicity Of cures, without regard to any
thing except that something is the matter
We trust farmers and owners of animals
will heed the admoniton here given.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1868-08-22

LIVE STocK.-Live stock of all kinds,
should have owners supervision. If others
do the work his eyes should see that it is
well done. Few hired men can be trusted
to do things constantly according to direc-
tons. In very cold weather there is a con-
slant temptation to consult his own ease
rather than the comfort of the animals en-
trusted to his care. Feed and water regu-
larry. Keep salt within reach ofhorses, cat
tie and sheep. A large lump of rock salt is
they please, they will not take it in excess.

The UNION PACIFIC RAILRoAD.-A brief

the material being now on the ground, and
the grading rapidly approaching completion.
len thousand tuns of iron, lately purchased,
will be delivered during the present season,
and we should not be surprised if five hun
dred, instead of three hundred, additional
miles of track would be finished before the
year closes, which would bring the road to,
aud give US direct communication with, the
Great Salt Lake region. This, however,
must depend, to a large extent, upon the sale
of the mortgage bonds, which, should they
meet with as much favor as they did in the
last year, will undoubtedly insure the COM
pletion Of the road to Great Salt Lake dur.
ing the present year. 1t is now believed BY
those having the enterprise in charge, that
the whole line of road can be opened for
traffic by the end of 1869, instead of 1875,
the time fixed by the Government in its grant.
The bonds hitherto have found ready sale at
par, aud in short time it is firmly believed
that they will command a premium, as the
principal and interest are both payable ia

How TO TREAT BALKY HORSES If yoa
have balky horses, it is your own fault and
not the horses, for if they do not pull true,
there is some cause for it, and if you will
remove the cause the effect will cease When
your horse balks he is excited, and does not
know what you want him to do. When be
gets little excited, stop him five or ten
minutes let him become calm go to the
balky horse, pat him, and speak gently 10
him and, as soon as be is over his excite
ment, he will, in nine cases out of ten, pull
at the word. Whipping and slashing and
swearing only make the matter worse. Af.
ter you have gentled him awhile, and his
excitement has cooled down, take him by
the bits; turn him each way few minutes,
as far as you can; pull out the tongue gen,
tie him little uurein him then step be-
fore the balky horse. and let the other start
Grst shon yUu tuk1 them suy where yuu
wish. A balky horse is always high spirited
and starts quick half the pull is out before
the other starts by standing before him the
other starts first. By close application to
this rule, you can make any balky horse
pull. If horse has been badly spoiled, you
should hitch him to The empty wagon, AID
pull it around awhile on Level ground then
put on little load, and increase it gradually,
careSsing as before, and in short time you
can have a good ork-hoIse.-American
Farmer.

AMERICAN CITIEs-The London Athen-
sum remarks 10 the course Of review of a
recent American volume Baltimore will
live in the travellers mind as a city of lovely
girls, of passionate song, of perfect terrapin
It will keep its place, when things of higher
interest may have passed away, by the color
of its streets, BY the dash of its people, by
the heat of its pavement, by the frolic of its
quays. Other cities of the Union have their
charm. Boston is very massive Richmond
is very picturesque. New York abounds in
riches, Chicago in enterprise, New Orleans
in wickedness, st. Louis is ferVid, Philiadel-
phia nobly built; but Baltimore has charm
beyond nearly all cities in America, which
many visitor has felt without being able
to describe. The streets are very sunny,
the citizens very gay. But these things
may be seen elsewhere, in places of which
you do not feel the instant charm. Perhaps
the secret lies in certain combination of
brightness aud thoughtlessness in the city
and the people, which is rather Sicilian than
American. New York and New Orleans are
far more dissipated cities than Baltimore /;
yet for a kind of decorous excess in the way
of vice-for dancing and dicing, for driving
and drinking, for all the delights which are
supposed to hang about wine and song-this
city on the Chesapeake bears away the belt.

CHINESE MAsoNs.-It may not be gen.
orally known that the Order of Free
masonry is very popular among the Chinese
Members of the craft muster in great force
in the BraidwoOd district, Australia, and
we have been informed by some gentlemen
who we're present at one of their lodge meets
ings the other night, and who were initiated
into the mysteries of the Chinese Order
that they carry out all the mystic rights and
ceremonies with which Freemasonry is ems
dowed to far greater extent than the Eu-
ropean Order On the occasion of the ad-
mission of the English gentlemen, to whom
we have alluded, to the Chinese Lodge at
Jembaicumbene, there was no less than four
hundred members present, all Chinese.
These gentlemen were made members that
night with 6fty Chinese. The proceedings
commenced at ten at night, and it was six
in the morning before the English visitors
turn came.-Mdsonic Record.

GROOMING Horses. - Though suitable
and properly prepared food is the prime re.
quisite for the horse, regular grooming holds
the second place in the management of him.
A man who omits the customary ablutions
at stated times-who goes for days or weeks
with uncombed hair, may exist, but does not
live in the proper sense Of the word. So of
the horse. Grooming is alike essential to
looks, health, and elasticity of action. The
curry comb and card should be brought into
daily reqnisition, nor should the clipping
shears be ohittei. Fetlocks bedraggled with
mud, unkempt and tangled name, deiract
much from the appearance Of the animal,
repress his ambition, and hence diminish his
usefelness. A man who neglects the regu>
lar grooming of his horses is an enemy both
to the beasts and himself; to them because
he withholds labor which is their due, and
to himself because he deprecistes the value
of his own property.

THE FARMER FEEDETH ALL.

My lord rides through his palace gate,
My lady sweeps along in state,
The sage thinks long on many thing,
And the maiden muses. on marrying
The minstrel barpeth merrily,
The sailor ploughs the foaming sea,
The huntsman kills the good red deer,
And the soldier wars without cen fear;
But fall to each whate er befall,
The farmer feeds them all.
Smith hammereth cherry-red the sword,
Priest preacheth pure the Holy Word,
Dame Alice worketh broidery well,
Clerk Lippitt tales of love can tell
The tap wife sells her foaming beer,
Joe Saunders fishes in the mere,
And courtiers rufile, strut and shine,
While pages bring the Gascob winei
But fall to each whate'er befall,
The farmer feeds them all.
Man builds his castles far and high,
Wherever river ruuneth by,
Great cities rise in every land,
Great churches show the builders hand,
Great arches, monuments and towers,
Fair palaces and pleasing bowers
Great work is done, bet here or there,
And well man worketL everywherei
But work or rest, whate'er befall,
The farmer he must feed them all.

THE MISSISSIPPI ELEoTIoN-A telegram
FROM Jackson, Mississippi, states the demo-
Gratis claim a majority of $4,000 in that
State. 1t is not at all probable that the re>
turns will show show any majority for them,
no matter how much it may be in reality
1t is more likely that the fraud by which
Arkansas was carried, will be repeated in
that State. If the radicals find that there
is majority against them, they will either
reopen the polls on some pretext and poll
fraudulent Voles enough to overcome it, or
stuff the ballot box, or resort to some other
expedient to carry the State. In Arkansas
there was handsome majority against the
Constitution. As soon as this was ascer
tanned, the polls were re,opeued at the pre-
ciucts on the Arkansas river, and negroes were
gathered from different quarters and trans
ported on steamboats, from one polling place
to another and voted until majority was
manufactured for the Constitution. With
Congress it is immaterial whether the Con-
stitution is carried or not. They will admit
the State and force it upon the people as
they have done in the case Of Alabama
