CALLING EACH OTHER PET NANEs

Sumner calls Trumbull deserter Kelly
calls Com missioner Wells deserter; Butler
calls Dawes deserter, and somebody
calls Bingham deserser 1t seems that to
tell the truth, or to keep faith in q solemn
compact, to abide by a fair bargain, to de
msnd honesty and economy in administrs-
tion-to do any of these things-is consid-
cred treason" to the party, for these are
precisely the offences of Trumbull, Wells,
Dawes and Bingham. There are some Re-
pubiicans who are neUer accused of this
grave party crine-whose standing in and
loyalty to the party has never been called
in question. They are Butler, and Drake,
and Ames, and Bullock, and Porter The of

Draining Land.

During the fall, after the pres
sure of the ordinary work is over,
and even during open winters,
much may be done where the ex-
pense of thorough drainage could
not be afforded in opening bitches
and other water courses through
the farm. Dead furrows may be
opened, and bitches cut where
needed. Water is the life Of
plants as well as animals; but
the generality of fplants, like ami
mails, do not like to be continu-
ally soaked in it. Besides: the
opening of bitches will often en-.
able you to get on to your fall
ploughing a week sooner in the
spring than otherwise. "Carriers, u
or shallow waterways, may be
economically made with an up
right scraper and steady team
the implement so universally
used for making roads. Where
the bitches are wanted deeper,
they may be finished by hand.
A system of thorough drainage
would double the average produc-
ton of farms not naturally or
otherwise drained. How essen
tial, therefore, that we attend to
the surface drainage! A little
observation in the autumn, when
the fields are clean, will give you
AUST idea of where the drains are
to be placed, and thSs year is the
time to do it, for the next season
may be as wet as this one has been
dry.

Healthy Chickens.

A correspondent of the Rural
Neao Yorker says: The way keep
my fowls in health, l clean out
the house once a week; put wood
ashes under the roosts; have iron
basins for them to drink from;
whitewash inside of hen house
with hot lime; put a little kero-
sene oil on the roosts once a
month. The main food is oats and
cake of scraps to pick on. Inev-
er feed but once a day-at noon,
or when l shut them up at four
or five in the afternoon. When
they run out, then give them all
they will eat. In my experience
there is no easier way to get dis
eased fowls than to keep them
stuffed; it makes them lazy, and
they won't work as much as they
ought to keep in a healthy con-
dition. When fowls begin to droop
1 give three large pills of com
mon hard yellow soap; it is the
best thing to cleanse fowl !
know of. l follow it for three
days; give them nothing to eat,
and plenty ofpure water to drink.
In desperate cases give a half tea
spoonful of tincture oflobelia.

Farm and Household.
Agricultural Reading.

The farmer who keeps reading
when he ought to be out at work,
will not get his work done at the
right time, and so be a loser in
that way, while he who never
reads at all, but works on as if he
needed no agricultural informa-
ton from any one, will be pretty
sure to make serious mistake in
his work, whatever it be, and SC
be loser in that way. The wisest
and best way, therefore, for every
farmer, is to read and study agfi.

So let us read and encourage

APARODY FOR THE SEASON.

Three women went waddling into the surf,
Out into the surf at Newport town;
Each wore a bath suit of the very best,
Costing as much as wedding gown.
For men must work and women must lave,
And what men earn their wives don'tsave,
Though husbands they be moaning.
Three brokers up at three high desks,
And balanced their books as the sun went
down;
Each posing DER ledgers that wouldn't
come straight,
Each wrapped in study disgustingly
brown,
For men must sweat and women keep cool,
And women will ever be fashions fool.
Though husbands they ne moaning.
Three names are struck from the Gold Boards
books,
Three brokers' sign-boards are taker
down;
Three men are busy ''seeins their friends"
Borrowing money to get out of town.
For men must break if women must waste,
And it costs deal to be ''people Of TASTE"
So goodbye to the fools and their moaning
PUzcLinelio.

Substitutes for Preserves.

A lady writer in an exchange
communicates the following bit
of information, obtained where
she "took tea last"
A dish 1 took to be preserves
was passed, which, upon tasting;
l was surprised to learn contained
no fruit. The ease with which
it was prepared and the trifing
cost of its materials are not its
chief recommendations, for un-
less my tasting apparatus deceiv.
ed me, as it is not usually wont
to do, it is emphatically a tip-toI
substitute for apple sauce, apple
butter, tomatoe preserves, and
all that sort of thing. Its pre-.
paration is as follows: Moder-
ately boil a pint of molasses
from five to twenty minutes, ac'
cording to its consistency; then
add three eggs thoroughly beat:
en-, hastily string them in, and
continue to boil a few minutes
longer, then season with nut
meg or lemon.

Cure for Corns.

The following recipe is vouched
for in an exchange as sure cure
for corns;
Put the feet for half an hour
two or three successive nights
in strong solution ofsoda. The al
kali dissolves the endurated Gu
ticle, and the corns fall out spon
taneously, leaving a small cav
ity, which soon fills.
Another writer says:
We know the above remedy
for corns to be effectual. We
have tried it, and found it acts
like magic. But we do not think
a strong solution is necessary
We know a friend who tried the
remedy on our recommendation
but he made the solution so strong
that with the corns, it took par,
of the skin off the foot. From one
totwo spoonsful of soda in a small
foot tub of hot water is sufficient
to remove the corns by letting
the afflicted member remain in
it ten or fifteen minutes.
