FALL SEEDING ToGRAss.-One of the un
fortunate results of the severe drouth Of The
seasons Of 1870 and 1871 Is the unfavOrabIe
effects upon new seeded land. Many field
that have been sown with grass seed two
years IN succession, are now quite bare d
useful grasses, and some are covered by sor-
rel or weeds. On others there is but a poor
" CATCH which gives promise of a light
crop next season. There are numerous ole
fields which have yielded to the same adverse
circumstances. What course to pursue with
such lands Is a question which puzzles many
farmer 70 day. We think the best dis
position to be made Of these fields is to pillow
this fall, harrow in light coat of fine ma
nure, compost or scrapings from the yard
plaster and ashes or superphosphate, and SOW
with grass seed, timothy and redtop. or such
other seed as the tarmor may prefer, 70 be
followed next spring by clover seed.
Care should be exercised in blowing, To
turn the burrows smoothly, and the ground
should be lett in good condition for the
passage Of the moving machine 4 little
extra pains may be necessary.
Fall seeding is quite unusual, on account
of the extra blowing required. We know
farmers Iwho practiced fall seeding exten-
sively. with success. and ghave never knew
of one who failed after giving it a fair trial.

I CHICKEN Por PIE.-Cut up chicken, or
two if large pie be required lay the pieces
| neatly into the pot, and sprinkle over salt
and pepper to your taste, Rub one table
spoonful and a half of -four and two table
spoonfuls of butter, (even fully together, and
spread this paste over the chicken; then COW
er the whole with good new milk, or, better,
still, with cream, if you have it. Set the
pot, covered with tight fitting cover, where
it will not cook or boil rapidly, but stew or
simmer, for three-quarters of an hour.
While this is stewing make crust of pre-
pared -four or, if you have none, with
soda and cream Of tartar, just as you would
for light, tender biscuits, roll this out
quite thick, and cover the meat. If there be
not enough gravy, add little more milk,
boiling hot, or boiling water, if milk be not
plenty. Cut a slit in the top of the crust to
let the steam escape. Boil half an hour
after the crust is put on, bringing the pot
over hotter fire that it may boil, not SIN
mer. In taking it out, pass knife round
the sides Of the pot to 10 )sen the crust then
slip long-handled skinner, as nearly fiat
as you have, carefelly under, and try TO lift
il out 50 as not to break the crust; but it
will, if properly made and cooked, be so
light that it will probably break little
tie. When lifted out lay 1t on dish, and
take out the chicken and gravy then lay
the crust together over it, and serve hot.
Lean fresh pork or veal is very nice cooked
a the same way.

BEARS HELPING EACH OTHER.-A gen
tleman was once making inquiries in Rus
STA, about the method of catching bears in
that country. He was told, that, to en-
trap them, a pit was dug several feet deep,
and after covering it over with turf,
leaves, etc, some food was placed on the
top. The bear, if tempted by the bait,
easily fell into the snare.
But" he added, if four or five hap
pen to get in together, they all manage to
get out again"
How is that % asked the gentleman.
They form sort OF ladder by step
ping on each others shoulder, and thus
make their escape
But how does the bottom one get out?''
All these bears, though not possess
ing a mind and soul such as God has given
US, yet can feel gratitude and they won't
forget the one who has been the chief
means of procuring their liberty. Scam
pering off, they fetch the branch of tree
which they let down to their poor brother,
enabling him speedily to join them in the
freedom in which they rejoice"
" Sensible bears, we should say, and a
great deal better than some people that we
hear about, who never help anybody but
themselves.

TALKING BIRDs.-Of talking birds the
magpie and the parrot have long been
famous, their natural aptness for initiating
the human voice being such that it has APP
parently required no very great exaggera-
ton of their actual powers to make them
play the part of very intelligent and
discreet takers. Pliny says, though
the parrot can converse, it cannot speak
with SO much distinctness as the maybe,
which loves to hear words spoken, and cons
them over by itself with the greatest care
and attention. making no secret OF the
interest it feels in the task. 1t is a well
known fact, he declares, that maybe
has died when it has found itself mastered
by difficult word that it could not
pronounce. Plutarch narrates, on the
authority of eye witnesses, story of the
very singular conduct of maybe that was
quite musical prodigy. This maybe was
all the while repeating words and initial
ing the sounds Of instruments; not indeed,

Sonnet.

Strength for the day At early dawn stands
Helpless and weak, and with unrested eys,
Watching for day. Before its portal lies
low black cloud-a heavy iron band
Slowly the mist is lifted from the land,
And pearls and amber CLEAN across the sides,
Gladdening my upward gaze with sweet surprise !
] own the sign: know that He whose hand
Hath fringed those somber clouds with ruby ray
And changed the iron bar to molten gold,
VIII to my wandering steps be guide and stay;
Break DER my wavering heart His rest for aye
And give my waiting folded palms to hold
His blessed morning boon-strength for the day

The PHILOSOPHY OF FRYING.-Perfect fry
ing is the perfection of cooking, but as soon
as the fat is not sufficiently hot to create the
burnt crust around the article fried, then the
fat penetrates it and absolutely prevents
cooking from taking place at all. If the fat
is not boiling, bubbling hot, the process that
takes place is not cooking, but simply drench-
ing the food with a tepid fat, and rendering
it totally indigestible. 1t makes no differ
ence how hot the the fat is made afterward =,
the mischief is done the moment the fat pene-
trates inside. Food perfectly fried has thin,
crisp, brown outside crust (Which has in it
self pleasant, relishing taste,) and is per
fectly free from even the suspicion OF fat IN
side, except what was Intentionally put
there by the cook All housekeepers know
that to fry well their fat should be hot.
But they do not attend to it half as scrupu-
lousy as they would if they understood the
true philosophy of it. Boiling, bubbling hot
fat cannot penetrate anything, and cooks tc
perfection tepid fat penetrates everywhere,
and does not cook at all, but actually pre-
vents cooking. Any housekeeper who reads
this, and chooses to profit by 1t, need nev, 7
put any greasy, fried, halt-coOked and IN
digestibe food upon her table. The secret
consists in having the fat boiling hot before
the things are put in. There is one other
condition which follows naturally from this
one, but which is almost invaribly lost sight
of even by good cooks, and that is that the
fat should entirely cover the article to be
fried. The reason of this is, that the part
not at once covered by the fat remains cold,
cools off the fat near it, and then alb
serbs the tepid fat just the same as if il
had never been hot. Frying pans should
be deep, will filled, and heated to the boiling
point, and then it is easy to turn out frieC
food crisp and brown, and dry on the out
side, and perfectly soft, moist and well cooked
within. 1t is popularity of the outside
crust of all things fried in boiling fat that
fat itself drips of from it as readily as water
hence, well fried articles are neither greasy
IN appearance or very greasy In reality
Frying ought to be as easy az bOiling-Chris
tidn Union.

The Sailor.

The sailor looking out TO sea,
Through the bleak darkness of the night,
Amid the throbbing of the waves
Still hears her voice so soft and light
And fancy brings the sound to him
OF church-bells ringing through the spray;
And in the sparkle of soft waves
He sees green fields and smells the hay.
Oh well for him he has this thought,
This moments thought, forgetting care,
That, as the ship flies on apace,
He sees blue eyes andIsunny hair.
Tomorrow DER the CLASSY. sea,
Beneath the glowing tropics sun,
Shall float loose timbers, shattered spars,
And all his dreaming shallIbe done.

/ stand behind his elbow chair,
MY soft hand rests upon his hair
Hair whose silver is dearer to me
Than all the gold of earth could be;
And my eyes of brown
Look tenderly down
On John, my John.
The freight leaps, and laughs and warns
Wraps Us both in its ruddy arms
John, as he sits in the hearth-glow red,
Die with my hands on his dear old head
Encircling US both
Like ring Of truth,
Me and nsy John.
His form has lost its early grace,
Wrinkles rest on his kindly face;
His brow no longer is smooth and fair;
For time has left its autograph there
But a noble prize in my loving eyes
Is John, my John.
" Ny love-" he says, and lifts his hands,
Drowned by the suns Of other lands,
In tender clasp on mine to lay;
How long ago was our wedding day
smile through my tears,
And say, Years and years,
Ny John, dear john"
We say no more, the freight glows;
Both Of US muse, on what-who knows?
Ny hands drop down in a mute caress-
Each throb of my heart is a wish to bless
With my LIES best worth
The heart and the hearth
OF John, rlIJohn.
