sixteenth century. Moryson says AT
Venice each person was served (be-
sides his knife and spoon) with fork
to hold the meat while he cuts it, tor
there they deem it i'll manners that one
should touch it with his hand Corvst,
writing in 1904, describes, with his
usual Pepysian JUNCTION, the Venetian
custom OF forks and umbl elias, and
adds OF the former, Il myself have
thought it good to initiate the Italian
fashion since | came home to England >

W hittaker, who does not scrupe at
the table to nickname HIM ''iurcifer, >

The Butter Plant.
rroc, tba p;,,sh,,rr nisnotpb

The high price which butter has at
tanned within the last few years, and
which gives no indlration OF decline,
will eventually lead to one OF two re
suits either Americans will learn, like
their European neighbors, to abstain
from the extravaganza OF butter, in
which they now universally indulge
or a partial substitute will be found for
butter. AS for their abstaining, we
we do not indulge in very great ex-
pectations OF that event. A habit
learned in days of plenty is rarely left
off BY nations OF individuals, in days
OF scarcity. Appetite will continue
most probably to be INDUCED in at
any cost, either of money or health
We must therefore look tor a substi
tute. What is wanted is good
vegetable OIL, of delicate nature,
which will do tor cooking purposes,
as that the use of butter may be re
stricted to the table alone There is
said to be plant in Japan, which is
the exact thing needed. The natives
call it the butter plant and use it pre-
clsely as they would butter. 1t has
no strong odor or taste, but a very
delicate flavor. Japan lies about onthe
latitudeot Pennsylvania, and as it is on
the eastern shore OF great continent,
It's climate must be substantially the
same as ours, and consequently there
would probably be no difficulty in do.
mesticating this curious and useful ex
otto. Fit is as represented, we are
tempted to think that the experiment
OF importing and cultivating this but
ter plant would be a grand success
At the present prices, butter is actu-
ally larger item OF expense to most
families than bread If a clean, pure,
delicate vegetable oil could be cheaply
procured to take the place OF butter
In the kitchen, while still leaving that
article Tor table use, great saving and
an ineStimable benefit would be con-
terred upon al, families Of moderate
means while the man who should con-
fer this benefit would make his tor.

We find in one of our exchan-
ges the following valuable COM
munication on the above sub.
jects:
"Your paper of the 28th has
an article Oh the above subject
signed by Chairman Murtfeldt,
which has much good practical
sense, and he has put the SUBJ
ject in the right light, as he
says practice is better than the
Dry. To kill bugs theoretically
will do very we'll for newspa-
pers, but practical experiments
are what the farmer and fruit
grower wants.
| have a case in point: A
large fruitgrower and farmer
living within a mile of 1ronton,
No.. told me but few months
since, that until last year he
had failed in raising plums and
apples at least one year out of
three, from bugs, worms and all
sorts Of creeping thing, besides
school boys. lie had used UP
all newspaper advice and "a
dopted and experimental on all
his neighbor' remedies; had
finally caved, as he expressed it
and pretty nearly concluded to
give up fruit'growing as a pay
ing institution when he wastold
to turn his orchard into a pig
pasture. The hog, eating the
fruit which falls from the trees
IN summer destroys a worm
every time he eat all apple
or plum. Besides this, the
roots the ground under the trees
keeping it loose in summer and
putting it in good condition to
freeze the little devils-curculios-
the biggest bores in the county
IN winter. He says that all the
roofing by hogsdoes not hurt the
trees in the least. His expert.
ment proved to him beyond dis
pute, that he could make fruit
growing profitable job through
the assistance OF a few hogs in
the orchard, while withoutthcm
he could not make the crop Ger.
tain. The trees grew better
and seemed to get wsd
life, the pear trees, which he
though were dying with blight,
quite dying, grew well, ard bare
good fruit every year after the
orchard was turned into a hog
pasture. He recommended in
hog wallow to be made in the
center OF the orchard. x. K.

Martha, who we will venture to say
is Quakeress, talks to farmers wives
through the Germantown Telegraph in
the following very sensible strain:
"There is nothing that marks the
character of the housewife so clearly
and Enthusiastically rs personal tldiness
1t is no excuse to say that I have had
SO much to attend to to-day, that
have not had time to dress SC, and
thus continue slovenly looking all day.
| am not willing either to admit that
household duties should be bar TO IT,
diness in its proper sense. | do not
mean that a person must be at all times
dressed up;' but surely household
work, Of whatever kind, does not in
tertere with having clean trock on,
however common, a nice, plain collar
and smooth head of hair.
There is all the difference in the
world in different housewives in this
respect. Some always look bright and
smart but others never look decently
clean in the mornings; they seem to
have no idea that anybody ever notices
their personal appearance while engag-
ed in their household duties or that it
is matter of the least possible con-
Germ to any body. They forget that
they have a husband, who was won
when in full dress, and studied to at
tract him by the addition it gave to
their persons, without regard to the
time and trouble 1t required, whose
eye is as sharp now as ever it was, and
whose sensiblities are just as acute
He may not complain; he may have
found out by sad experience that all
complaint is futile; but he feels and
suffers the change, and is forced to set
tie down into listless indifference,
without hope to brighten the future
With respect to the children, also,
what an example for them! The daugh-
tiers will be educated in sad school
to take upon themselves, in the course
OF time, the chances of marriage and
the responsibilities OF household
Mothers, you should set bright ex-
ample before your children in this as
well as other respects. The Bible says
Cleanliness is next to godliness;' hence
your teachings shsuld embrace the
practice as well as the theory OF rcli-
gion, especially in its every day appli-
cations in the family

A new method Tor seasoning green
wood in a very short time consists in
boiling it for some hours in water, ana
leaving it then to cool, by which thu
soluble substances are removed. 1t is
then boiled in an enormous solution of
borax by which the insoluble albumen
of the wood is rendered soluble and
escapes from the pores. The wood is
then placed in drying chambers and
heated by steam and allowed to re-
main there three days. Wood thus
treated is more compact than it would
be by ten years of ordinary exposure,
it does not shrink or warp, and is Sc
cure against decay; on account of its
great density it is more easily polished,
and better fitted for articles OF turni-
ture and musical Instruments,

The following sensible advice
to young men, is so true and
eminently to the point, that we
cannot help copying it for the
benefit Of our young readers:
One Of the very best situa-
tons a young man can b, en-
ployed in, is that of a hand, or
assistant on farm. The work
is not easy, nor the pay very
large but it is the most healthy
and congenlal in the range of
mans employments, and the
expenses and temptations are
less than in any other, Board
and washing is furnished free,
the clothing need not be expen-
sivc, and it ought to be no trou-
bic at all TO- a young man to
save half, or more Of his wages.
In two or three years, he may
save enough to rent a farm for
himself, if he has been observ-
ing Of his duties, and learned
how to carry on one. In year
or two more he can marry, and
in ten years, with industry a nd
managing, may achieve a com
petencc sufficient to last a reson.
