Comparative Experiments.

In speaking Of the importance of COM
parative experiments, Mr.. Mechi says:
Whenever / use an artificial manure,
leave a portion of the field unmanured
with it, and am thus enabled to judge by
the crop if | am remunerated by the out
lay. So various are the soils and condi-
tions of each field, that such compare
tive test becomes absolutely necessary !;
for where the whole field is MANFRED, and
no portion left undressed, no just conclu-
sion can be arrived at. On this farm
have frequently applied bone-dust, super
phosphate, blood-manure, and other artif-
cial manures, without the least increase of
crop, while Peruvian guano and especial
~ our shed-manure are always profitable.
As I know that on many farms such ma
nures have been found very effective,
there must be causes that render them in
operative on this SOIL No doubt shed ma
nure, resulting from animals fed with
corn, cake, roots and hay, malt combs,
and bran, contain all the elements for
every crop. Possibly it may be that hav-
ing thus enough phosphates, the addition
of more is not required or availed of by
the plant. At all events, this proves the
necessity for comparative trials" We
commend this suggestion to our readers.

Small Matters.

THERE are many otherwise good
farmers who are entirely regardless OF
little fixtures, and who devote all their
time to the larger matters. Now we hold
that while the latter should by all means
be made the main objects of attention, the
former should on no account be neglected,
and it is as much the part of the thorough
" good farmer to see to the one as to the
other. We enjoy visiting farm where
this attention to little matters, this time
spent in fixing UP" is everywhere no.
ticeable, and in complete keeping with
the more weighty matters. We like to
see the well built gates instead OF bars,
barn.doors on rollers instead of hinges,
and fodder racks for sheep instead of feed
ing them on the ground or floor. We
like to see all doors to outbuildings pro-
yided with hasps, for both fastening them
upon the inside if necessary, and also for
securing them back, when open, from the
action of the wind to see gate to shut
across barn door to keep out cattle or
sheep when the door is open; to find in
connection with every barn or stable
closet for harnesses or carriage robes, as
well as tool-room for the storage Of the
larger farm tools and implements to find
hooks for hanging up odd pieces of rope,
chains, shovels, and the like, and nails for
hanging up the smaller tools and utensils
used upon the farm, as well as boxes
for the reception of old iron and every
sort of waste, and workbench
and tools for making and repairing all
kinds of farm implements. If in eXamin-
ing the buildings upon farm we find the
latter, we are also generally sure to find
all the other conyeniences suggested above,
as well as many others it is not necessary
to enumerate. And one hardly knows,
without having tried it, how much the
farmer can accomplish during his spare
hours in the way Of fixing up his build
ings with these handy accomplishments,
nor how much they add to the actual value
of the farm, not only for himself in per-
forming the necessary work upon it, but
in the estimation of any one wishing to
purchase farm. Attention to these little
matters marks the really economical, sue
cessful farmer. u
We recently passed the residence of a
man who would be indignant did we not
class him among the best farmers in the
town where he resides, whose OK cart was
standing by the roadside, where i. was
last used, and part of whose harrow was
visible from beneath snow drift in an
adjoining field. They will be ready when
wanted IN the spring, but we fear the ex-
ample of the farmer in this matter will be
hard to be counteracted by his more COM
mendable qualities and the contrast be-
tween him and the farmer who has all his
tools and implements well housed in his
outbuilding or barn cellar, is too striking
to need further illustration.-Moine

VALUABLE MEDIcNE.-We presume no medical
preparation ever offered to the public has been
more thoroughly tested than PERRY DAVIS
PAIN KILLER. Thousands of persons, were
they called on to do so. would cheerfully testify
that they have used it for various ills, with the
most satisfactory success. 1t is within our own
knowledge, that an immense amosnt of suffering
has been relieved by it. Its proprietors, Messrs.
Perry Davis & Son, save no pains or expense in
order to satisfy the public. Being strictly honor
able men, they observe the utmost uniformity in
the manufacture of their celebrated Pain Killer.
The materials of which it is composed are care
fully selected-none but the best quality being
used. By these means the high reputation which
the Pain Killer has long since acquired is at all
times triumphantly sustained. In view of these
facts, we are by no means surprised to learn that
rapidly increasing. While we congratulate our
friends generally that valuable preparation as
the Pain Killer is placed within their reach, we
must be permitted to rejoice at the well merited
ofits liberal and enterprising proprietors.

The Age of Miracles Revived.

Isaac Saltzer, of Myerstown, Lebanon county,

over two years with the worst form of ScrofuIa !;
his entire body. face, neck and limbs were liter

charged purulent matter so copiously as to gather
half an inch deep in bed during the night; he was
constantly cold, and required a hot fire in his
room both summer and winter; the smell was so
offensive that no person could endure it longer
than minute or two; Drs. Bridenbach, Butcher,
Heckart and Lebvengood, wellknown and skill
full physicians, attended him successfully, with
out being able to afford the sufferer any relief
As last resort, he was induced to use the cele-
brated MISHLER'S HERB BlTTERS, and is now
perfectly restored to health. The editor of the
Messenger of Health has in his possession two large
glass jars containing foe pounds of scdbs taken from
the body of YolylQ lSQLtzeT.

The Trying Season.

The searching winds, the cold, drizzling rains,
the heavy fogs, and occasional warm and moist
days Of March, render it. upon the whole, the most
unhealthy month Of the year. Its depressing IN
fuences are especially unfavorable to invalids,
and thousands of persons with feeble constitu-
lions, who have borne the winter bravely, break
down in the first month of Spring. The variations
of temperature and cold east winds are serious
trial to the dispepic and bilious, whose symptoms
they invariably aggravate. Intermittent fever is
also rife wherever there is evovable poison In the
water or the soil. To enable the system to combat
these evils, there is nothing Ike good vegetable

How to Bake an Apple.

You may bake an apple on paper, and
make fair thing of it. But the best way
is to take tin or other dish and arrange
your apples in it; not too closely, especial
ly in the center, as the heat wants to have
access and bake uniformly. s.....
But the most Island we need separate
paragraph for this-to bake moderately.
This to avoid breaking the skin; and the
reason for it is, that the skin is better
conductor of heat than the exposed part OF
the fruit. 1t also keeps the juice from
evaporating, and thus secures softness and
flavor; fine, rich, tender pulp, IN good
fruit like the Spitzenburg. -
The heat, if severe, will strain the skin
and the tension will burst it if too great.
The part laid open will then evaporate its
moisture and become dry and powerful
pon-conductor preventing baking alto.
gether at that place. This is the great
fault in baking.
Now, in order to avoid this, moderate
heat must be applied and sustained. 1t
will not do to let the fire go down and
then up again. But keep uniform heat
and as much as the fruit will bear, and so
on to the end there will fine, round
expansion remain till the fruit is cooked.
This will be known when 1t is perfectly
soft, and soft to the core, so that only the
seeds and their cells will be hard, the skin
to a thin almost transparent envelope.
Some ovens will bake unevenly, in such
cases the fruit will have to be attended to
and turned, not only the dish but the fruit
in the dish, but be careful and do not ham
die too roughly. Do not pinch with fin
ger and thumb, but use a fork; when the
fork indicates the appearance of vacuum
under the skin. remove the fruit. 1t will
have assumed brown aspect and glist-
ening exterior, and when removed will
settle down into wrinkled collapsed state,

USEFUL RECIPES, ETC.

SWEET OIL is recommended as q cure
for bots in horses.
a. CORRESPONDENT of Country Homes
says: 1t is not generally believed, but it
is true, that broad, square breasted hens
make the best layers"
Muck should not be applied to the
fields until it has been exposed to the at
mosphere for six months or more, and
composted with lime or unleached ashes
IT is believed that the manufacturers
and sellers of farm implements do not
take it very hard when they see a reaper
or mower, pillow or seed drill standing
through the storms of winter by the road
side or in the field where it was last used.
A CORRESPONDENT of the Practical Far
Nor claims that celery is possessed of i'm
pertant medicinal properties. He says
that moderate use, daily, of the blanch-
ed foot-stalks of celery leaves as salad,
will cure nervousness and palpitation of
the heart.
REMOVING APPLE STAINs.-Hold the
stained cloth over an empty vessel, and
pour boiling water on it slowly, filtering
through. IT this fails to remove the stains,
dissolve few grains of oxalic acid in half
a pint of cold, soft water, and dip the
cloth in it.
DESTROYING VERMIN ON CATTLE.-Per-
NIT me to inform your querist that l have
tried many things to destroy vermin on
cattle, and that have found nothing so
good as mixture oftrain oil and spirits of
turpentine, in the proportion of five or
SIX glasses OF oil to one of turpentine.
The latter is destruction to insect life, but
by itself is too strong and gives pain; it
is blister for a hOrse.-C0r. Irish Farm

at least in their own country. They get
up linen whittier and nicer than any others,
and they do it by using refined borax as a
washing powder instead of soda, in the
proportion of a large handful to about ten
gallons of boiling water. They thus save
one-half in soap. Cambrics and laces re-
quire an extra quantity of the powder,
while for stifening crinoline and under

To DESTROY RATS AND MIcE.-One of
the surest and most available poisons for
this purpose is carbonate Of baryta, dry,
white, tasteless powder, not adapted to
mingle with any liquid. In using it, mix
il up with good dripping and meal, or
beat it up with the raw flesh of a fish, so
as to make relishing paste for them to
eat. If it is to be used for the destruction
of troublesome cats, take piece of raw
fish and rub the powder well into it with
a stick. Care must be taken to so place
the bait that only the vermin intended to
be destroyed by it shall have access to it,
as it is deadly poison, alike destructive
to dogs and any other animals that viii
eat the preparations of which it forms
component part. Always burn the bats
that have been set overnight, as the sur
viving vermin will seldom touch that
which has been mauled about by those
who have feasted upon and been destroyed
by it.-Hearh ard Home.

The Quincy Herald says: Two men,
each operating at the same time, commit
ted most successful robbery of tickets
on the Toledo, Wabash & Western Rail-
road last Wednesday evening, as the train
was passing from Springfield to the juno
ton, distance of only two miles this side.
1t seems that they entered the train at
Springfield, and each passed through car,
representing themselves as conductors,
succeeded in collecting great number of
through tickets, and some money, and
when near the junction, as the train was
running slowly, both jumped off and made
good their escape. We are of the opinion
that all conductors should be uniformed,
and in this way passengers could not be
thus deceived. The conductor on this oc-
casion passed those who were so unfortu.
nate as to have their tickets stolen. Yet
there were quite number who had tickets
to parts hundreds of miles farther west,
and on arriving here they had no money
to purchase any more, and the consequence
was they had to STOP"

PARAFF1NE WAx.-A correspondent of
the Public Ledger, (Philadelphia), from
practical experience, recommends lard
and parafine wax as the base of ONT
ments used to dress running sores. 1t is
stated that heeswax, the usual ingredient
for giving consistency to the ointment, is
melted by the heat of the body, and per-
mits the humors to be absorbed by the
linen bandages, which, therefore. in dry
ing, adhere to the wound and cause great
pain. Trouble Of this kind, it is asserted,
is entirely obviated BY the use 6l hnrs
