To REMOVE SMOKE FROM Walls
BEFORE WHITEwASHING.- when walls
are badly smoked indigo, dissolved
in water and applied with a brush,
removes the smoke and leaves the
walls i'll a good condition to receive
the lime, We presume this is good,
though we have never tested it, our
remedy for smoked walls being
white lye made in the following
manner: Take four quarts OF ashes,
pour into it eight quarts of boil
ing water; let 1t settle and apply with
a brush; if badly smoked, wash it
over twice, then it is ready for the lime.
PLAIN GINGERBREAD.-Ta three
pounds of flour, a quarter of a pound
of butter, half an ounce of ground
ginger, half pound of sugar, and mo-
lasses sufficient to moisten the flour.
Cut up the butter in the -four, add to
it the sugar and ginger, and stir in
mOlasses barely enough to moisten
the flour, as it will become softer by
kneading. Knead the dough we'll,
roll it out in sheets, cut it in cakes,
place them on tins, wash them over
with molasses and water, and bake
in q cool oven.
