The result OF the elections for the German
Parliament, so far as il is known, does not
verify the fears of those who anticipated an
overwhelming, victory of the Conservative
Prussian party in consequence of the popu-
larity of the new Emperor and the.Crown Prince.
Il seems that the Conservative party barely
holds its own. II counted in tho last North
German Parliament GS members AS 1t viii
get 10 additions from the South German
States, it will have about the same number IN
tho new National Parliament, which has, in
all. about 40 members. Among the members
whose reelection is already announced, we
notice the name of Gen. M0ltke; among those
who are not reelected in their old districts,
the name of the millionaire StrOusbcrg.
The Gree Conservative party" which in
the North German Parliament numbered SO
members, votes on many questions with the
National Liberal party. 1t seems likewise to
have gained no new districts.
The "National Liberal party in whose
platform the completion of the National Unity
has been the foremost plank, had about 70
members in the Parliament of the North Ger
man Confederation. 1t had a plurality, both
in the North German Parliament and in TIE
bodies. Prof. SmsOn and FOIckenbcck, were
from its ranks. 1t has suffered, at the recent
election serious losses in the Catholic districts
of Westphalia and the Rhine Provinces. where,
in consequence Of the stirring appeals made by
the Bishops with regard to the condition OF
the Pope and the interests Of tie Church, the
candidates of the Catholic party have been
more successful than at any previous election
These losses, however, are more than balanced
by the sweeping victory which the party has
| gained i'll the States of South Germany. There
the union of Germany was the great
question at ISSUE aud the people decided it by
an overwhelming majority in favor Of the
! National Liberal candidates. Catholic Bavaria,
\ which i'll 1870 elected an UluamOntane Diet.
/ has, in the delegation of 4S members which it
| sends to the National Parliament, only one
third UltramOntanes, and twO-thirds National
| Liberals. Still more decisive is the victory in
! Wurteinberg, which sends II members. In
! 1868. when tle South German States had to
elect deputies to the Customs Union Pariia-
ment, the aversion 70 u political union with
! Northern Germany under the leadership of
Prussia was so great that the National Liberal
party was defeated in each of the Il districts.
/
fourths of MI the districts. Strengthened by
these victories, the National Liberal party has
ssgain o considerable plurality in the new Par
lament. II has already, os we learn by cable
dispatch, succeeded in electing one Of its mem-
bers, Professor Simson, President.
The Party OF Progress" (Fortsek@itsparteiN
which had in the North German Parliament
2S members, is more advanced and moro un-

gress than the National Liberal party, with
which it agrees ON a great many questions.

Dairying in the United States.

THE following statistics are from the
Lire Stock Journal:
But few persons realize the magnitude
of the dairying interest of the country
at the present time. The present. produce
of cheese is supposed to be 100000 900
pounds which, at fifteen cents a pound,
amounts to $45o00000; and of butter,
5750000 000 which, at twenty five cents a
pound, amounts to $152 100000; with
900 gallons of milk sold in the cities
and towns, and G0,000,000 gallons consumed
in families where produced, worth $685.
O0O,00O; making together dairy product
of $215,000,000, besides the pork made
from the refuse of butter and cheese
dairies. The number of COWS is probably
not less than 100000; the number in
1860 was $S,72S, 1862.
Ii We allow 100000 cows for making
the butter, il will give lis pounds to the
COW, and 100000 cows employed in pro.
ducing cheese, which will be 200 pounds to
COW, 100000 cows for the production OF
milk consumed in cities and families OF
producers, leaving 100000 cows in the
Western and Southern States devoted to
raising stock. From these facts il will ap.
pear that the average product of butter
and cheese is very far below what it might
be with the intelligence and attention Of
breeding, feeding and general management
which the magnitude of the subject de
mands. The first Collins cheese factory
Of Erie county, N. Y, for 1869 reports the
average from 730 cows at 420 pounds OF
cheese to a COW, while 200 pounds and
over is a common yield to a COW in butter
from good, wellfed cows. p

The Body and its Needs.

Considering the extreme sensitivcness of the
human bedy, and, that it Is unprotected except
by artificial covering, from the action of cold It
is not strange that at this season It is liable to
many disorders. The skin exercises a powerful
influence over the stomach and bowels, and when
its functions are interrupted by sudden chills that
seal the pores and prevent evaporation from the
surface, internal congestion is apt to ensue. The
digestive organs never perform their Office prop
erly when this is the case, and the waste matter
of the system, which should be discharged in part
through the perspiratory glands, having no other
outlet than the bowels and kidneys, constipa-
ton and variety of renal diseases are more or
less prevalent Dyspepsia, where 1t exists, is also
aggravated by these causes The most effective,
preventive of, and remedy for, disturbances o
this nature, is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Act
ing as n stimulant and tonic, it rouses the stom-
ach and the intestines, imparting to those impor-
tant organs both activity and regularity. 1t also
operates as sudordc, by toning the vessels of the
skin and promoting the free passage of exhausted
matter through that natural sieve of the system
Being mild diuretc. 1t gives healthful impulse
10 the action of the kidneys, where there is ten.
dency 10 dropsy, and as blood depurent and ner.
vine, has a highly beneficial effect in rheumatic
| cases. IT combines in happy proportions the

and antibiliOus properties requisite for the restora
ton of a system generally disordered, and has no
equal as q winter medicine.

Few Hints About Cooking Game.


THE cooking of game is extremely sim
pie, as very few kinds require a force-meat,
and the sauce is very easily made. AS a
general thing, game is roasted The longer
game is kept, provided IL is not stale, the
better Birds and and all kinds of game
are better kept in the feathers and skins
till Just before required for cooking
When the feathers slip off very easily, the
birds may be considered ripe for the spit
or oven. BE very careful not to tear the
skin while taking off the feathers. After
every feather and pin-feather has been re-
,moved, pass the blaze of a lighted white
paper over the outside surface to SINCE off
the hairs, which, if allowed to remain,
would show very distinctly after the birds
are roasted. BE careful in drawing the
birds, and they will require very little
washing The less they are washed, the
better favored they will be. Do not soak
game in salt and water, as recommended
by some writers. They say ct is to
take out the game flavor" If the game
flavor is undesirable, doubt If soaking in
salt and water would remove 1t. The game
flavor Is what epicures like. The heads of
the birds, with the whole length of neck,
should be cleaned, the eyes removed, ETC.,
and skewered to the side of the wing and
roasted with the game. 1t distinguishes
the bird from domestic fowls No stuffing
is required. Sometimes wild ducks may
have a mild force-meat of bread. crumbs
soaked In port-wine, but it is not usual in
this country Put no water in the pan,
but baste the birds every few minutes with
butter and the gravy that runs from them.
Woodcocks or snipe are prepared for the
roast without drawing or opening them in
any way. The head, with long bill, is
cleaned and fastened to the wing. The
feet, of course, are left on.
Bread crumbs, fried TO- a fine brown in
butter, are served with game; also bread
sauce and jelly. The bread d-sauce is made
as follows: Take quantity of fine white
light bread'crumbs. Pour over them an
equal quantity of boiling new milk. Let
it soak awhile, then stir in little butter
and salt. IT desired, you may add cayenne
pepper or q little mace Some add a
boiled onion chopped fine. 1t is very
good without these additions, and will suit
the general taste better probably. II
should not have boil up, and be allowed
to stand, where it will not burn, on the
back of the stove till wanted for the table
Remember to remove the skewers and
strings from the game before removing
them to the large dish for table. If you dc
it afterward, you will make the dish look
untidy. Small birds are very nice rubbed
over with the white of an egg, and then
rolled in bread crumbs before roasting
Baste with butter, and apply fresh bread
crumbs to bare places till they have uni
form appearance. Some nicely toasted
slices of bread, soaked minute or two il
the gravy from the pan, is served with
game, and is very much relished by some
persons. Young partridges are very nice
broiled and served at breakfast. They are
however, generally roasted.-Heartk ans

Remedies for Hollow Horn.


THE following recipes are contributed
to the Rural Nep Yorker:
Take one pound of bittersweet root, one
and one third pounds of tobacco; boil in
chamber lye; add one pound of lard sim
mer down to salve. Shave the hair off
between the horns; apply to the head,
rubbed on well put two thicknesses of
woolen cloth from horn TO horn tic on
with string. | have used this kind of
salve occasionally, over forty years, for
hollow horn. Have cured cattle that had
not been able to get up in four days; also,
garget in cows udders, chapped teats, or
any kind of sores. Apply little to horses
ears, and the flies will be very careful not
to trouble them.-s. II. NJ.
| have never known the following to
fail even in the worst of cases My plan
is to fasten the animal In stable, or where
it can be held, and take middling-sized
gimlet and bore through both horns on
the under side, about two inches from the
head, into the hollow. Animals will never
be obliged to have their horns bored but
once unless they get stopped up, when
they should be bored out again, and they
will never be troubled with the hollow
horn unless the holes get stopped
mer
Take strong spirits of camphor, pour it
in the hollow on the top of the head. If
not very bad, that win cure it. If that
don't start it, take gimlet and bore tho
horn about three inches from the head,
and put about half II teaspoonful of cam
phor gum in each horn If that don't
warm up the horns in two hours, you need
not try anything else Make eome wooden
plugs and put in the holes when you get

Agricultural Crumbs.

BE prudent in planting; one corn is
often enough for an acher, and if you must
leave anything out, why, drop your pota-
toes.
Farmers are not expected to be men of
letters but 1t Is generally understood that
you will make a while the sun shines.
Your field may be 'fur. ow ed with care"
but 1t cannot be narrowed by the recol-
lection"
Even your grief may be of a moving
character for when there are no horses
the farmers (s) teers will move the plow.
No matter how much work you have on
foot, keep your tow out of the flax.
You must remember which are the
most noisy vegetables-the potato balls,
and you can make pumpkin hollor.
Keep in mind the active ones, beans
will run, you see the cornstalk in the field,
and one vine that you plant you may find
hop when it comes up.
Don't let your cattle stray; they often
wander to the most mysterious places

ror to suppose that the form of an elastic
