Fires were soon set roaring, and the

proved very inconvenient, but now we
had two hundred and fifty more mouths
to feed and it was most acceptable.

Wilson, who commanded the guard
on that occasion, deserved great credit,
not only for his courage in action, but

than two or three miles up the river if

it became our duty to burn her. Lieu

preparations in this department, and
had all the appliances ready-turpen-

TO DRIVE AWAY RATS WITHOUT POI
SON,

We know Of three methods: First.
the old French plan; this is followed
chiefly in Paris by men making 1t Il
special business. They take deep
tub with water on the bottom and IA
little elevation in the middle ike an
island, on which is only place for Just
one rat to sit on. The top is covered,
and has large balance valve opening
downward. On the middle of the valve
a piece of fried pork or cheese is placed,
and when the rat walks on it to get the
chess the valve goes down, drops the
rat into the water and moves back into
position. A road is made from the rat
hole to the top of the tub by means of
pieces of board rubbed with cheese, SO
as to make the walk attractive for the
rats. In the course OF night, some
ten, twenty, or even more rats may go
down. and if the island was not there
they would be found most all alive
in the morning, quietly swimming
around; but the provision of the little
island saves the trouble of killing them,
because their egotistic instinct for pre-
servation causes them to fight for the
exclusive possession of the island, on
which, in the morning, the strongest
rat is found in solitary possession, all
the others being killed and drowned
around him. Second, the New York
plan, invented by one of our friends.
The floor near the rat-holc is covered
with thin layer of moist caustic pot
ASA. When the rats walk on this it
makes their feet sore; these they lick
with their tongues, which makes their
mouths sore, and the result is that they
shun this locality-not alone, but ap
pear to tell all the rats in the neighhor-
hood about it, and eventually the house
is entirely abandoned by them, notwith-
standing the houses around may be full
of rats. Third, the Dutch method.
This is said to be used successfully in
Holland; we have, however, not tried
it. A number of rats are left to them
selves in very large trap or cage, with
no food whatever; their craving hun
ger will cause them to fight, and the
weakest will be eaten by the strongest.
After time the fight is renewed and
the next weakest is the victim, and so
it goes on until one strong rat is left
When this has eaten the last remains of
any of the others, it is set loose; the
animal has now acquired such taste
for rat flesh that he is the terror of rat
dom, going around seeking what rats
he may devour. In an incredibly short
time the premises are abandoned by all
the rats which will not come back be-
fore the cannibal rat has left or died.

Snow CAKE.-Sift one tumbler pull
verised sugar into a cake-dish; fill a
tumbler two-thirds full winter wheat
flour, pinch of salt, and one teaspoon
cream-tartar, and fill the remainder
with corn-starch; add the whites of ten
eggs, beaten until they will stand on an
inverted platter; use colorless extract
for havoring. A rather slow oven.

CuRRYING Horses. health, COM
fort and looks of horses require that
they be kept thoroughly clean. The
curry-comb should principally be used
to keep the brush clean, applying it only
lightly to the name to loosen the dirt
never about the limbs, and especially
the points. A liberal use of the brush
will give the coat that peculiar glossy
appearance so much admired in a well
kept horse. A partly worn broom, cut
square, is an excellent thing for clean
ing the limbs from dirt, if not too harshly
used.
