SETTING OUT CABBAGE.

A good manure for cabbage plants is
made by filling an ash hopper with
equal parts of hen manure and COW
manure, and pouring water over it.
Then mix the leached water with muck
making it the consistency of thick paste,
and put into the holes prepared for the
plants. Plant your cabbage plants In
this gu distance. and they will grow from
the start, and not wither. Beets and
Celery can be set out in the same way.

FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.



An experienced, dairy woman pub
fishes some excellent ideas on practical
butter making in the Hearth and Home.
She dCe3 not believe the assertion of
some learned professor who says, The
longer the cream is in churning, the
better the flavor of the butter.' She
says, butter is contained in the cream
perature, joined to q rapid beating,
those sacks break, and the butter
"comes.' Five or ten minutes of the
rapid motion will cause the sacs to
break equally as we'll as two hours Of
the same elbow exercise. Neither does
the two hours hard work increase the
quantity or flavor OF the butter. In
charming, however, 1t is very import
ant not 10 cease the agitation too soon
when the butter first begins to come
Some commence to gather before half
the cells have broken, and so leave a
large portion OF butter in the butter
milk. It is we'll to keep up the brisk
agitation until the butter begins to
gather of its own accord, and the but
termilk separates completely from the
milk.
From our own observation, It is i'm
portant to not have the cream too sour,
as we'll as to have 1t of the right
temperature, in order to have the butt
ter come quickly.
The depth of milk in pans should not
be over two or two and one-halt inches;
and the milk should be skinned just
as it begins slightly to clabber. II, in
skimming, the cream Is placed In jar
along with other cream previously
SKINNED, the whole should be stirred
up together when an addition Is made,
SO as to insure like acidity to the mass,
when a1terward the contents of the jar
are poured into the churn.
It is good plan in cold weather, af-
ter milk has set twenty four hours, to
place the pan over pot Of boiling
water on the stove, and let the steam
warm it, so as to cause the cream to
'crinkle' a little, taking care not to let

WHEAT PREDICTION.

The area of wheat culture Is dimin-
ishinH in all the older wheat producing
States; and the decline in production
per acre is equally rapid. At the pres.
emit moment Minnesota and California
stand foremost among the wheat States;
the average in each State being about
twenty bushels per acre, and their ag-
gregate yield is nearly equal. In Iowa
the average yield is but twelve bushels
per acre, and in Ohio and Pennsylvania
ten. Illinois, which stood at the head
as a wheat-growing State, produces, as
bushels per acre. The wheat region of
the United States, it is evident, is now
the western side OF the Mississippi
River.

Consider the So cree:

McDougal thinks Thadeus Harris, the
colored barber of Abingdon, gentle
man. Well, Thadeus is quiet, well
behaved, gentlemanly colOred man.
But to be called a gentleman by Me-
Dougal is to add insult to injury.
Thadeus ought to bring an action
against him for damages, for to be called
a gentleman by McDOugal gives rise to
doubt. Thadeus always stood above
him and when he refused to board him
he clearly demonstrated his superior"
ity and gentility. Thadeus is Walk
er man, deserving great credit for the
sensible course he has pursued and we
trust the citizens of Abingdon will not
allow such men as the ex-burea officers
to injure him.

Even the tree TO which Mr.. Neal WIS

About two weeks since, during a
storm of thunder and lightning, the
house Of VIM Goddard, about seven
miles from Maryville, was struck BY

under indictment for being concerned
in the whipping, was stricken down.

tree is now dead. The warning was a
