Lazy Farmers.

Laziness prevents n man from
getting off his horse to put up the
first rail that gets knocked or TIC
fence and through this lazy neglect
q whole field Of corn is seriously
damaged.
Laziness keeps a man from driv.
ing one nail when one would do,
and finally costs carpenters bill
for extensive repairs.
LAziness allows 4 gate 10 get rfI
the hinges and lie ia the mud, or
stand propped by rails--or a sta,
bic or barn to leak, and damage
hundreds Of dollars worth Uf prov>
ender.
Laziness, in short. is the right
and proper name for nine tenths OF
the excuses given for bad farming
But by for tho most prolific of tho
many wastes that are due to lazi
moss is the waste of ignorance
Bot this waste is In Itself 40 great
and has so many rami6cstions
that We shall have to defer its dis
cusSion for another time,--Diric

CURING HAMs.-Here is a valu.
able recipe for curing hams and
keeping them through the sum.
mer; Weigh the hams and make
q brine. allowing one ounce of salt
to every pound of meat, and one
ounce of saltpetre to every rs
pounds. Pack the hams closely,
sprinklinga little salt on the bot
tom Of the tub, and gil the chinks
with stones. Have just brine
enough to cover them we'll, and
let them lie four or five weeks.
Then take them up, dry and smoke
them, wrap them in paper and
pack them down in ashes, in a
cool, dry cellar. This will keep
the flies from them and prevent
them from getting dry and hard.
We have used this recipe for TWEEN.
ty years never had any hams to
spoil. and they are not too salt
They will keep the yoar round

Bean lovers viii stick apin here

Dwarf Wax Bean Is = good thing
not so good as the Giant Wax
(pole,) but it is after that style
and then so earlyl Planted a few
days earlier than the Early Valen-

is not "string" bean, because il
has no strings, but it has great
deal Of "snap" about it. The pods
look whitish and sickly, but just
try theml They do not boil down
into fiabbiness, but keep thcir
proper rotundity. For bean salad
they are splendid. Perhaps the
reader does not know bean salad.

SAUER KRAUr--This German
mode Of preparing cabbage is
growing in favor on account of its
healthfulness. A physician says
that its use in our navy has abso-
lutely banished that scourge Of the
seattle scurvy. The outside
leaves of the cabbage must be re.
moved, and the inside should. to-
gether with the stalk, be cut into
small pieces, laid in barrel with
salt, carraway, whole pepper and
juniper berries strewn betwetn n
each layer. The whole ought to
be closely pressed down with o
heavy weight for some days; fer.
mentation takes place, and the
greater portion Of the acid juice
must be drawn off, when the cask
should be put in q cool spot, but
during the time Of fermentation it
should stand in warm cellar.

Crack in a Hog-Trough.

4 few days ago a friend sent me
word that every day he gave nearly
twenty pals of buttermilk to a lot of
sssboafs, and they scarcely improved
at all. Thinks I, this is a breed of hogs
worth seeing. They must be of the
heard him repsat the nlournful story,
and then visited the sty, and in order
to get a better view of the miraculous
SWINE, I went into the. epen and, on
close examination, found a crack IN the
trough, through which most of the
contents ran away under the floor.
Thinks I, here is the type of the fail
ures Of our agricultural brethren.
When IEee farmer emitting all inn
proyements because OF 8 little cost !;
selling all his farm stock to buy bank
or railroad stock or mortgage STOCK !
robbing his land, while in reality, 10 Is
also robbing himself and his heirs
thinks i, my friends you have crack
in your hog-trough.
When see a farmer buying guano,
and wasting ashes and hen-manure !;
trying all sorts of experiments exceES
intelIigent hard work and economy /;
getting the choicest Of seeds, regardless
of Guilt vation growing the variety of
fruit called Sour Tartar Seeding, and
sweetening it with sugar, pound for

and never giving a cent to any agrleul-
turaI society-such q man, will give
written guarantee, has got crack in
his bog-trough. and in his head also.
When see q farmer allowing loose
boards all over his yard, fences down,
hinges off the gaze, manure in the
barn-yard, come to the conclusion
that he has got a large crack in his
hog-trough.
When / see q farmer spending his
time travelling in carriage. when he
has to sell all his corn to pay the hired
help, and his hogs are so lean that they
have to lean against the fence to squeal,
rather lean to the conclusion that
somebody that stays at home will have
q lien on the farm, and that some day
the bottom will come entirely out of
his hog og-brough.-PTdiTie Farmer.

The Yes-But Grumblers.

Bishop McTyeire, in travelling
