GENERAL SCENERY.

After leaving Plattsmouth, on the Mis-
souri, river, the country grows wilder and
more Hndeveloped with every mile /; and
to one who has lived within the settled
limits Of New England, it abounds with
interest. The river Platte, a slow and
sluggish stream running through so flat
a country, seems almost to have no banks
at all Wild ducks and geese are seen
along her shores in almost countless num-
bers. Sand-bars would be literally COW
cred with them. I would almost be will
ling to wager that we saw ten million
geese within the space of five miles. The
prairie grass waving sometimes in the
wind is beautiful to look upon. Here
and there herdsmen on horseback are seen
keeping watch of tho grazing cattle, and
swine run about seemingly with no desire
to wander eff. Nebraska has but little
rock or stone; bat between South Bend
and Ashland a imeatone quarry has been
opened tb.t - furnishing large quantities
of building stone to the new towns just
starting up. Near by is a four-foot stra-
tum of paint soil, said to be valuable and
requiring only the capital to develop it.
There is but little woodland. A few trees
mark the courses of the little streams and
dot the borders of the Platte. This is
owing to the annual prairie fires which
have for years been set by the Indians for
the purpose of starting game. At Green.
wood we reach the prairies proper, stretch
ing away as far as the eye can reach in
one unbroken boundless 'sea of land" 1t
inspires one with feeling akin to awe,
and causes man to realize his insignia
canoe as much as does the grand noun
tain scenery of Vermont. At Crete we
strike the uplands or table-lands and are
fairly "on the plains" This is the fat
test, most unbroken country in the world.

of very beautiful pattern, procured by
contributions from relatives and friends
through the energy of Mrs. M. J. Potter,
of Rutland, a sister of Mrs. Reynolds.
When everything was in readiness a
messenger was despatched to inform Mrs.
R. that friends had collected to celebrate
their silver wedding, and upon arriving
home, she with Mr.. R., who had already
arrived, were invited to the dining room,
when A. S. Burdick, Esq, brother of
Mrs. Reynolds. presented the silver set in

Weeds in Garden Walks.

EDS. COUNTRY ENTLEMAN-I want to
tell your readers how keep the walk in
my flower garden clean. 1t is a very
simple plan, and the wonder to me is that
| never thought Of trying it long ago, for
they are something that have given me
much more trouble than the beds them
selves, and have never before been able
to keep them clean without great a.
mount of help from Pat. One day last
summer ! happened to have large guam
tity of boiling water to dispose Of For
some reason did not want to throw it
in the drain, and we never throw any.
thing in the yard SO after few minutes
consideration | said it should be emptied
on the walks in the flower garden, as il
would do no harm there, and sure enough
it did not. The next day, when down il
the garden for flowers, the walks attract
ed my attention, they SO uncomnly clean
not green thing daring to stick up it

Large Pans for Making Butter

The st. Adams (Vt.) Messenger says
that A. II. Buck has one of the best
equipped farms in that county, and thus
describes the pans used in his butter dali
ry:
Mr. Buck has four pans which are SUI
ficiently ample for forty cows. They are
made spare or rather oblong, Of tin, and
are each six feet long, nineteen inches
wide and twelve inches deep. They are
set in wooden watts, and kept from the
bottom by sticks an inch or so in thick
ness. In this wooden vat water is pour
ed, or may be kept running, so as to reg
ulate the temperature of the milk. Run
ming down from the bottom Of the pan at
one corner is tin spout, one and three
quarter inches in diameter, and Of less
rather than greater length than the thick
ness of the wooden bars which held the
pan from the bottom of the vat, Drawn
over this and wound closely with thread
is piece of rubber hose, which runs
down through the bottom of the wooden
vat 1t is cut off, nearly even with the
bottom, and wooden plug inserted which
has the double effect to stop the escape
of both milk and water. BY drawing
this plug the skinned milk is removed
from the pan. 1t is well to have anoth-
er drain pipe for the wooden vat, so that
the water can be drawn if need be with
out disturbing the milk. In this way
the milk of forty COWS can be taken care
of as easily as that Of five cows in the old
method and it is believed with greater
profit. Mr.. Buck has as yet made but
one comparative test, but from 10
pounds ofmilk he realized quarter of q
pound more butter in this than in the old
way, while its flavor was considered SUI
perior. He believes that longer expert.
ence will show more favorable results
which it seems reasonable.
As for the depth of the milk in the
pans, Mr.. Buck sets it from eight tc
twelve inches, and is not satisfied from
his short experience what depth will at:
ford the most cream. If we rightly re-
member, the experiment of DR.. Middle
ton Goldsmith, one of the vice-presidents
Of the Vermont Dairymen's Association
and a very scientific man, tended to show
the utter fallacy Of the notion only re-
Gently prevalent, that the depth should
be only one or two inches, and we think
he made the statement that quite a!
much cream in proportion would be de
rived from depth of one one or two
feet. Dairymcn will do well to expert
ment upon this.
The expense of fitting up large pans il
the manner described will vary according
to places but nowhere ought to exceed
500 each, and generally will be less. l
this does not pay in single season b.
the increase and Improvement Of the but
ter, it certainly will in the saving o
hard labor to the noblest women of tn
earth-the wives and daughters who adj
to the golden wealth of the world, ant
who as a class enjoy less labor-saving in
ventions than any other.

Cure for the Peach BOrer.

NJ. B, Bateham says, that after two
years trial Of Carbolic Soap, he feels
quite safe in recommending its use as the
cheapest and best method yet found for
the prevention Of injury by the peach
borer, and presumes that it will be equal
ly as efficacious for the apple borer His
method Of using is as follows; Take a
five pound can of the soap Costing only
S1), and turn it into barrel one-third
full of hot water; stir it occasionally and
let it stand few hours, or over night, for
the soap to dissolve; then fill up the bar
rel with cold water-or | sometimes use
soapsuds from the kitchen for this pur-
pose. The liquid is now fit for use. 1t
is milky appearance, and pungent but
not offensive oder, 1t is too strong fol-
using on plants, but will not hurt the
bark or wood Of trees, applied with 0
paint brush around the base of the trees
taking care to have the liquid enter al
crevices; it Immediately destroys all the
insect-eggs that have been deposited, ant
any young worms which have not pene
trated further than the bark and | be-
lieve that for some weeks at least, unless
heavy rains occur, the odor prevents thu
moth from depositing eggs. One appli
cation in July or early in August is suf
