GRAFTON MILK BIsCUITs.-Boil and
| crate two white potatoes add two tea
| spoonfuls of brown sugar pour boiling
water over these, enough to soften them.
When tepid, add one small teacup of
yeast when light, warm three ounces of
butter in one pint of milk, little salt,
and flour enough to make stiff sponge /;

mode that we ever tried so effectual in
transplanting tomato, cabbage, canta-
loupe, or any other tender plant from the
hot bed, or from one place to another, as
to prepare a vessel filled with manure

of thin mush, with which the roots of the
plants should be well coated, and set in a
hole made with round piece of wood OF
dibble. After being rather firmly planted,

when done in this way, and the trouble is
very slight GermantOlon Telegraph.
HOMEMADE CANDY.-Use a new tin
basin; put into it four tablespoons OF
water, one pound of "coffee A" sugar,
one teaspoonful of good cream tartar,
boil, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
After it begins to have a soapy appear
ance, try it often, by dropping a little
into cold water, and if done it will at once
become brittle. Butter an earthen dish
and pour the hot candy into it, that il
may cool just enough to handle. Flavor
to taste with oil of peppermint, winter
green, sassafras, or lemon. Two drops
of oil will flavor it strong. For variety
divide into three or four parts, and flavor
differently, by touching one kind of oil tC
each; work in the hands at once; the
more it is pulled the whittier it will GET

AN INDOOR VINE.-To grow a prett,
vine from the sweet potato, put a tuber il
pure sand, or sandy loan, in hanging
basket, and water occasionally. 1t will

to touch the end of the potato, will grow
freely, and make pretty vine.
