Some English grooms at Saratoga are
teaching the YANKEES" how to take
care of horse.
To-day asked one of these grooms,
who has spent twenty years i'll the
stable of royalty, what he had to say
about our American way Of taking care
of horses.
why, sir" said he, "you don't take
good care of your horses you think
you do. but YOU don't"
"Why ~ asked
"Because when holsc comes in all
wet with perspiratios, you let him stand
in the stable and dry with all the dirt
on. In England, we take the horse us
he comes in from q drive and sprinkle
blood-warm water all over him, from hi
head to his feet. Then we scrape him
down and blanHet him, rubbing his
face and legs dry. Thus, in an hour he
is clean ana dry, and ready to take a
good feed, while, in youl way, he will
stand and sweltcr for hours, and finally
dry, sticky and dirty. Our horses never
founder and never take cold. We never
use a curry-comb. You scratch your
horses too hard. The only care neces-
sary is to have the water not very cold,
then bathe them quick and blanket
them instantly, while you are rubbing
their legs. -Nev York Conn,ercial Ad-

mutton Hang the sheep by the heels

will die very quick. So soon as life is
extinct, Or motion ceases, remove the
entrails with asharr knife, opening COM
pletely from tail to tongue. This job |
generally get through with in just about
half minute. | am satisfied that the
peculiar flavor of badly handled mutton,
said to come from the wool, is due to
the entrails lying too long in the animal.
| pay no particular attention to the

quently kill mutton four miles from

To REMOVE FREcKLEs.-One of the

To REMOVE TAN.-Mix magresia in

TO KEEP MEAT.-Meat is much better
for family use when at least one week
old in cold weather. The English
method for keeping meat for some time
has great merit. Experts say, hang up
a quarter of meat with the cut end up,
being the reverse of the usual way, by
the leg, and the juice will remain in the
lneat, and not run to the cut and dry
up by evaporation. 1t is worth trial,
and when made will be continued.

1t is surprising that so many families
in the country are willing to live year
after year without cultivating a single
grapevine about their dwellings. They
are compelled to purchase this delicious
fruit for the table or not taste it during
the season. There is common impress
sion that 10 cultivate grapes perfectly
vast amount of knowledge and tact
is required. To many the simple trim
ming OF the vine is Il mystery. This is
an erroneous view, and ought not to
prevail. Any person of common intel
lgence can learn in an hour how to
trim and nOurish vines; and, if instruc-
ton can not Re obtained from some ex-
perience. cultivator, there are books
filled with cuts and illustr tons which
make everything plain. Three vines OF
rs many different varieties planted in
some sunny nook, or by the side of
some building, SO as to obtain shelter,
will, if properly cared for, furnish many
a bushel OF delicious grapes every year.
Select a Concord, II Delaware, and an
Adirondack; make the ground mellow
and rich by the use of the spade, and
by employing old manure. finely ground
bones, and ashes; and set out the plants
In three years the rich clusters will ap-
pear, and in four years the product will
be abundant. 1t is well to have vines
planted so that the waste liquids from
the dwellings can be used in fertiliza
ton. If there is any food the vine
loves it is the soapy liquids which ac-
on washing days in families.
Vines drenched every week with these
liquids will flourish astonishingly, and
extend themselves SO as to cover large
buildings, every branch bearing fruit.

81. H. j." Frankfort, Ohio says that
the rule given in the Ayriculturist OF

he asks why we take 2,750 inches for a
bushel when 2, $50 inches make bushe Ell

rule is correct. We take $3.50 inches
for the simple reason that cora-eors are
sold and measured by the heaped bushel,
which is 2,75O cubic inches. Two thou
