The Orange.

Did you ever eat.a ripe orange p No
doubt vast majority of our readers
will say yes, and consider the question
rather silly one. Yet we doubt if one
in five thousand has ever tasted a ripe
orange-that is, one that ripened on
the tree, and was not plucked until
ready for use. The oranges of com.
merce are plucked before maturity, in
order to give time for ripening off the
tree and prevent decay. The eaters of
such fruit have no conception of the
lusciousness of the orange after nature
has been allowed to perfect her work
upon it. 1t is beyond comparison, the
prince Of fruit.-SaVannah RepuJHcaa.

Keep Cattle Growing.

Ihemost successful breeders of horses,
cattle, sheep or swine know from ex-
perience that although they may pos
sesses the best breeding animals, they
will not be successful in producing su-
perior stock if continuous growth of
the young animals is not kept up. In
order to begin in time at this indis.
pensable preparation for success, the
brood mares, COWS, ewes, and sows are
most carefully and suitably fed while
with young, as soon az the young ami
mails make their appearance, they are
taken the greatest care of, the dams
being suitably fed while sucking, and
when the young ones are weaned, they
are not supposed to want for food or
drii k single hour.
BY this means a continuous or rapid
growth is kept up, ard the animals at.
tain large size and heavy weight at an
early age. When breeding animals are
not properly fed and comfortably shell
tered in winter, the bad effect of such
treatment is not confined to their own
want of condition-it is shared by their
progeny, and can never be remedied.
When young stock are not fed we'll and
comfortably sheltered in winter, their
growth becomes stunted, and no subse-
quent amount Of good treatment can
repair the damage. Young animals
may suffer for want of proper provender
in summer and autumn, as we'll as in
winter, and when this happens il stops
continuous growth, an prevents ulti.
mate success in the object Of the breeder.

To Make Whisky Pickles.

In these degenerate days we often get
hold of whisky that will eat up cucum.
bers speedily. Better leave such liquor
for the human stomachs which crave it,
and buy alcohol pure. 1t is just as
cheap, for it can be reduced with water
according to its strength. / have used
a gallon of alcohol to five or six of soft
water. Pick your cucumbers, wash
cal efully, so as not to bruise them, and
put them in as fastas they are collected.
Stir them up from the bottom every
day, and stir in the scum that rises as
they work. This process soon makes
good pickles and sharp vinegar. The
sun or fire hastens the process. The
pickles are nicer if small.

Beautiful Sentiment.

There is but breath os air and
beat of the heart betwixt this world
and the next. And in the brief inter.
val of painful and awful suspense, while
we feel that death is present with us,
and we are powerless and he all power
full, and the last pulsation here is but
the prelude of endless life hereafter
we feel in the midst of the stunning ca.
lamity about to befall us, the earth mas
no compensating good to mitigate the
severity Of our loss. But there is no
grief without some benefcent provision
to soften its intenseness. When the
good and lovely die, the memory of
their deeds, like the moonbeams on the
stormy sea, light our darkened hearts,
and lend to the surrounding gloom a
beauty so sad, so sweet, that we would
not, If we could, dispel the darkness
that enyirons it.-Prentice.
