PREsKRyISG SHINGLES ON RooFs
correspondent writes: Some paint roof
shingles after they are laid. This makes
them rot sooner than they otherwise would
Some paint the courses as thcy>are laid !;
this is a great preservative. if each single
is painted the length of three courses
But about rs sure n way to preserve shin
giles. and that with little or no expense, is
the following:
There is one thing moro that nearly all
people know, if they would cniy attend
to it; that is. to sprinkle Stacked lime on
the roofs Of their buildings in rainy DAYS
Put it on considerably thick, SO as to
make the roof look white, and you never
will be troubled with moss; and if the
shingles are covered over so thick with
moss, BY putting the lime on twice, it
will take all the moss of and leave the
roof white and clean. and viii look al
most as we'll as if it had been painted. 1t
ought to be done once year. and, in nv
opinion. the shingles will last almost twice
as long as they will to let the roof all
grow over to moss. I tried it on the
back side of my house. ten years ago,
when the shingles were all covered over
with moss, and they appeared to be near
ly rotten. gave the roof heavy coat
of lime. and have followed it nearly every
year since then, and the roof is better
now than i, was then; and. to all appear
ances, if follow my plan, it will last ten
or fifteen years longer. The shingles
have been on the roof over thirty years.
There is no more risks about sparks catch
ing on the roofthan newly. shingled roof.
Those that do not have lime near by can
use good strong wood ashes. and these
will answer very good purpose to the
same end.

GARDENING IN THE EVENING OF
LIFE.

A writer in the CornhiU Magazine
recommends to enc in tho autumn of his
life, to take to gardening, if he has
not already experienced its pleasures.
Cfall occupations in the world it Is
the orc which best combines repose
aud activity. 1t is lot idleness it is
not s'agna;ion and yet it is perfect
quietude. Like al; things mortal it
has its failures and its disappoiotments
and there are some things hard to un.
derstaud. But it is never withou. it's
rewards, and perhaps if there were
nothing but successful cultivation, the
aggregate enjoyment would be less.
1t is better for the occasional shadows
that come over the scene. The dis
clollne too is most solitary. 1t tries
our patience md it tries our faith.
But even in the worst of seasons, there
is lar more to reward and encourage
than to disheartcn and disappoint.
There is no day of tho year without
something to afford trouquil pleasure
to the cultivator of flowers, something
on which the mind may rcst-rest
with profit end delight = !

GROWING CELERY.

Very few attempt to grow celery
from the mistaken notion that its eul.
ture is attended with more or less diff.
6culty. But with this as in other
things, cultivation has been somewhat
simpli6ed within few years past,
requiring much less lnbor and care
than under the old mode of trenchine.
At late meeting of the Montgom-
cry Co., (Ohio) Horticultural Society,
one Of the members said that the pres
ent mode Of culture differed materially
from that p:acticed few years ago
A deep trench was formerly considered
the first requisite in the cultivation Of
celery. He has practiocd p'owinh
open a trench Of only moderate depth,
but from experience contemplates plaut.
ing on the surface for the next season
The seeds should be planted as early
as prudent in the spring, in beds out
Of doors. Plants grown in this way are
much harder and more certain of sue
cess than when sown in boxes. The
young plants should be cut back once
or twice in the beds and before trans
planting, to induce a stocky, solid
growth thiuly in ths beds.s::With prop
er care they will be ready to be trans.
planted into the garden rows from the
18th to the slst day of July. Ear
lier than this is not desirable, as celery
makes its principal growth after the
nights become cool, and the secret
Of success is in keeping the plants in
good condition uutil this season arrives,
which, in our hot sun and dny atmoms.
phere, is delicate matter. 81,
The hilling-up process should be
gradual, beginning when tho plant is
about ten inches high ard At FIRST o.
ly sufficient earth should be drawn up
to the plart to keep it FROM sprea ding
out f.; the plants should be set six inches
apart. Celery loves moisture, and IT.
risation is Of great advantage in its cul.
tivation the water should not come
in actual contact with the plants, but
allowed to gather between the rows.
The moisture is absorbed gradually
in this way, conducting to a healthy,
steady growth. The soil for the growth
of celery should be cool, deep ard
rich, of a pure loan free from gravel,
and with but little sand.

Mr.. backman, her owner, FIVE thousand
dollars for the prospective colt, which, as
wall be seen, will be full brother or sister

whether the colt comes alive or dead

The americas A9rtcalturist gives
this method Of feeding limbs:
Ono ofthe greatest difficulties in rails
ing early lambs, more especially with
some Breeds which are not naturally
good mothers, is the disposition Of the
eve to disown or neglect the lamb.
When she has twin lambs this not
seldom happens. Without great attcn.
ton at weaving time farmer may lose
some fiuo lambs which might easily be-
saved. We have experienced this
ourselves, and have saved many early
lambs by feeding with cows milk. It
has been said that cows milk is pois-
onous to lamb. We never fouod it
so, but have had very good success,
oven with that very tender breed, the
Leicestors. The critical time With q
lamb, more especially in cold weather,
is the first day Of its life. Often the
eve may be as good nurse as possible,
but the lamb may be weak aud chilled.
4 mouthful of warm mix will often re-.
v;vc lamb when it is not able to get
TO suck. To feed lamb that has been
altogether disowned by the eve, VIC use
4 tin can, a common kerosene oil can,
With pieco Of sponge wound around
the end of the spout and covered with
cotton bag, shaped like tans, which
was tied on. The milk was made
warm, and little sugar dissolved in it.
Tho teat being put in the lambs nouth,
it will Immediately suck eagerly, aud
will soon get accustomed to the strange
method. When eve is weak and has
but little milk, few spoonfols a day
will help the lamb very much. When
a eve will not Own her lamb, it is best
to take her, aud with enc hand hold
up the wool so that the lamb can get
to the tcat. Let the sheep be held so
that she can turn her head and smell
the lamb, and if little salt be sprink-
led on 1t, she will commence to lick it.,
and her unmotherly objections be soon
removed. Such a eve should be plao.
ed with her lamb in small stall by
herself As soon as the lamb is strong
enough it will, by dint Of perserver-
ance-wheu the sheep cannot escape
learn to help itself: In two or three
days the eve will have become friendly
to it. The sheep pens should be visit
ed several times a day, and the last
thing at nig bt End the first thing in
the morning. as soon as the lambs be-
gin to appear. The ewes should be re.
moved day or two previous to this
event into pen by themselves, where
more care md little extra feed can be
given them. 1t should be remembered
that when can or bottle is used to
feed the lamb, it should be carefully
rinsed with sealding water i'm mediately
after using, lest any sourncss should
occur. Sour milk will kill lambs very
quickly. Iu case diarrhea should &C.
cur from neglect in this respect, it may

pared chalk, in doses of half teaspoon.
tul or more, according to the age of
the lamh, three times day. 1t is very
rarely, however, that this will be need
ed If care is used. 1t is also very i'm
portant that warm, dry. quarters, vi tn
clean straw bedding, be furnished.
