How to Send Fruit to Market.

l find that many OF our Southern
fruit-grOWers are anxious to send
their fruit to our market, but do not
know how to send it in order to real
ize tn most money by the sale of it !;
and knowing that the Rural has a
large circulation in the South, [ send
you a few hints for their benefit.
To those wishing to send apricOts I
would say, do not send ana small,
spotted or inferior fruit; there is no
demand for it. If your fl small,
yet clear and sound, it III. If
it is generally large culFV the

sold for $50, was grown
and sent in berry basketS.1Rhe ffu4c
was large, clear and handsome. The
same quantity sent in a crate would
not have sold for half the amount.
Peaches, plums and tomatoes should
be sent in crates containing one BUSH
ell each, The crates should have a
division board in them to avoid too
much pressure. Strawberries and
blaCkberries should be sent in pint
baskets; quarts are too large to carry
well. l would recommend either
Cooks or Beecher's. For raspberries
l ould recommend Cooks haIf-pint
basket as a very superior article, For
choice varieties of white and red cur
rants, l would recommend the five
Crpa oh
ties of this fruit are ALWAYS in de-
mand in our market at good paying
prices but it must be sent III an at
tractive style. The common red fruit
can be sent in ten-pound boxes; if
sent i'll too large packages they bruise
and spoil very quickly. Grapes can
be sent in the same style box.
Rhubarb is sent to market tied up
iRa punches, contg lining from six to
eight stalks, in proportion to the size
Of them; cut off the leaves and pack
ill close box. Egg plants should be
packed i'll in clean. strong barrels,
with oats or cut straw. Avoid pack
ing too many i'll the barrel to save
freight; they lose more by breakage
than is saved. Apples should be
picked with much cave to avoid bruis-
ing, as that causes them to rot very
quickly. Pack tight, i'll clean barrels.
Pears should be sent in half barrels
or bushel crates. Send only prime
stock. Peas, onions and potatoes in
barrels we'll ventilated. Remember,
the freight is just as much OH a poor
article as a good one, and it will not
bring near as much when sOId.-

GFeaslng Wagons.

Says an exchange: But few people
are aware that they do wagons and car
riages more injury by greasing too plen-
tifrIlly than in any other way a well
made wheel will endure common wear
from ten to twenty-five years, if care is
taken to use the right Kind and proper
amount of grease; but if this matter is
not attended to, they will be used up in
five or six years. Lard should never be
used on a wagon, for it will penetrate
the hub and work its way out around the
teuOns of the spOkes, and spoil the
wheel. TallOw is the best lubricatOr for
wood aXle-trees, and castor oil for iron.
Just grease enough should be applied to
she spindle of Il wagon to give it light
coating; this is better than more, for
the surplus put OH will work out at the
D ends, and be forced by the shoulder
bands and nut washers into the hub
around the outside of the boxes. To oil
IAN iron aNle-trGe, first wipe the spindle
clean with clOtl wet with spirits of
turpentine. and then apply few drops
of castor oil near tile shoulder and end,
One tea-spOOnful is sufficient for the
whole"
We would add, that for journals on
which there is a heavy pressure, it is a
good plan to mix with the oil some lamp
black or common SCOT; powdered plum
bagO or black lead is also employed for
the same purpose.

VENTLATION.-Those who occupy or
work in close rooms often suffer in
health for want of fresh air. Apart
ments not supplied with ventilators,
should be so constructed as to let down
one, two or three inches from the top.
This will let in Il moderate and steady
current, which will become well mixed
with the other air, before it reaches the
floor and be more pleasant than sweep
ing gusts near the feet through the win
dOWS raised below.

TO Remove the Skin from Peaches.

Every one knows there is a great loss
of pulp in pairing pearches with knife;
,teSObviate which an exchange suggests
ne following method of treating them:
Make lye as strong as possible of wood
ashes and soft water. Fill kettle with
tile lye, and when boiling rapidly, drop
in twelve or eighteen peaches and take
It again almost Immediately, and inn
atham in pail of cold water. Take
o. Inland. and you perceive that
the&4~Will slip off entirely, leaving
round beautiful yellow ball; throw it
Immediately into another pail, of pure
water, and so proceed till all are done.
This process will not injure the flavor of
the finest peach, and once tried, the old
fashioned way of pealing with knife
will not be again adopted. If the I've is
not strong enough, put into the kettle
two dipperfuls of clean wood ashes.
This is an excellent way to rid small on
ions of.their jackets preparatory to pick
ling tHom.

How TO PRESERVE ICE.-Dr. Schwartz
has communicated the following simple
method of preserving small quantities of
ice, which he has practiced with success.
Put the ice in deep dish or jug, cover
it with plate, and place the vessel on a
pillow stuffed with feathers, and cover
the top with another pillow carefully.
by this means excluding the external
air. Feathers are well known bad con-
ductOrs of heat, and, in consequence, the
ice is preserved from melting, DR..
SWartZ states that he had thus preserved
six pounds of ice for eight days. The
plan is simple, and within the reach of
every hOusehOld.-HOn1e Journal.

Green Peas.

They are best when first gathered and
shelled. They lose their flavor and sweet
ness by being kept; do not shell them in
while the water bOils, and only have just
enough to cook them done. Season with
salt, pepper, and good supply of butter,
II they have been kept, or if they are
not a sweet kind, they are greatly i'm
proved by the addition of a spoonful of
sugar, and, if little old or yellow, a
piece of salaratus. Another method is
said to be an Improvement. Place in
your saucepan or boiler several leaves
I lettuce, put in your peas, with an
unce of butter to two quarts of peas;
cover the pan or boiler close, and place
it over the fire; in thirty minutes they
are ready for the table. GSeason with
pepper and salt, &c. 1t is said then are
better than when cooked in water.
Green peas should b boiled from twenty
to sixty minutes, aStOrding to their age.

DYSPEPSIA REMEDY

In placing this remedy before the public,
we viii only refer to the following certificate,
which expresses all that we need say. And
being from one who has experienced beneficial
results from its use, after having given 1T
thorough trial, his words carry more weight
than anything we could say.
CENT? EMEN:-For a number Ofyears vas
greatly afflicted with dyspepsia, and altho'
my stomach craved food, it would immedi-
ately reject it, should eat anything no mat
ter how small the quantity. ] wasGs luent-
" compelled to leave the table, without be-
ing able to take any nOurishment. In short
time became very much reduced in flesh,
and was weak that l was unable and I'M
fit to attend to my business My mind was
in no better condition than my body, as l
was continually oppressed with lassitude
and depression of spirits. l tried all the
patent medicines and prescriptions that l
heard of, and soTe of these afforded me tenn
pOrary relief, but in short time l relapsed
into my former condition.
While suffering in this manner, I heard
of c. f. Cations Dyspepsia Remedy, and
concluded to try it. l had taken it but a
short time when l began to feel relief, and
continuing to take it, l soCn could partake
of my meals without any disagrceable feel
ing, either while at the table or afterward,
and gained flesh RAPIDLY. 1t is now nearly
ten years since, and l have continued free
from anything like a return of dyspepsia-I
can therefore recommend it to any one suf-
fcring in like manner. Respectfully yours,
