Apple Butter.

In preparing apple butter, cider made
from sweet apples will make better ar
ticle, but if it cannot be obtained, COM
mon cider can be used. Take the cider
as it runs from the press, before any
fermentation has taken place, and boil it
down in a tin or copper boiler (never use
irony until it has evapOrated fully one
half; while it is boiling, all the scum that
rises must be carefully removed, and as
soon as tits thick enough, add quantity
of good tart apples, pared and cut into
quarters, taking out all the cores.
Fill the boiler half full of the quarters.
Keep up a slow but steady fire, and be
very careful to stir the apples every few
moments, to prevent them from sticking
to the bottom and sides of the kettle.
When the apples have boiled about fifteen
minutes and have settled little, add
more, until the boiler is quite full enough;
now cook to pulp, stirring it almost
continually.
When it is finished, showing no whole
piece, but all one mass of pulp, tnrn it
into jars or firkins, and let it cool; cover
it and store in cool place. 1t can be
seasoned with spices, while cooking or
afterward; ground cinnamon and cloves
are the best suited as aflavoring.
One and half bushels of apples, after
they are pared and quartered, are enough
for one barrel of cider before it is boiled
down. Country Gentleman

P. B. CORNWALL, agent of the Black
Diamond and Bellingham Bay Coal Min
ing Companies, was recently the recipient
of beautiful white dear, six months old,
from friend residing in the Puget Sound
country, and now has the animal in
course of domestication. In form the
animal resembles closely the common
American deer, having rather long
head and sharp muzzle, large and lustrous
eyes, and long, slender legs, though there
is grace and finish in the shape of the
limbs that one seldom sees among the
ordinary deer.-San Francisco Bulletin.
THE Brooklyn Tabernacle, Mr.. Tai
mage, pastor, was the victim of an in
genious system of robbery. For some
time the trustees were mortified at the
disappearance of money, in sums varying
from S25 to 800, from the collection
boxes. These boxes, eighteen in number,
were placed in receptacles, or pigeon
holes," made for the purpose in the front
of the pastors platform. The "pigeon.
holes" extend through the platform nearly
three feet, or the length of box and
handle. A few Sundays ago one of the
deacons, who was sitting in front of the
platform, made a remarkable discovery.
The collection had been taken up, and the
boxes returned to their places. The dea.
cons eye happened to be resting upon the
''pigeon-holes," when he was startled by
the sudden disappearance of one of the
handles, which had protruded a little
from the hole. He rubbed his eyes, but
Kept them fixed on the place. Presently
another handle disappeared, and then a
third. This little incident necessitated
the services of police detectives, who,
after couple of weeks, discovered the
robber, who had been accustomed to
crawl under the platform through the
organ-room, remove the back part of the
pigeon holes, and empty the boxes.

A Memorial Gift.

The round of gifts for holiday season
is soon exhausted. Books, and Jewels,
and trifies repeat themselves with the re-
turn of every Christmas and New Year,
so that we are weary of choosing from
them. We want to find remembrance
for our friends, having something more
than that temporary value which these
customary gifts possess.
There is new gift more graceful and
useful than anything that is to be found
in the shops. Its possession is not only
benefit for life, but 1t keeps its giver in
perpetual remembrance. 1t is Life In
surance policy, presented on New Years
day by the husband to his wife; by the
parish to their pastor.

Drilling Wheat.

One would suppose that it made little
difference how wheat is sown, and yet
people have noted that on land of as near
ly as may be similar quality, and in most
circumstances probably the same, either
one or the other will sometimes be much
more successful than the other. Some
times it is the drilled wheat which is the
best, sometimes that sown broadcast, and
the result is that there are growing up
two parties, each advocating one or the
other of these methods, as if one only
could possibly be the best.
But when we look at the circumstances
| accompanying each failure, we see that it
is not the method of sowing so much as
the depth of the seed which insures sue
cess; and again, that the proper depth of
the seed depends on the soil in which
wheat is sown, the manner in which the
soil is prepared, and the season which
follows the sowing. In view of all these
facts, we have never been able to decide
which mode of sowing is the best as
mode; but for the regular seeding of a
piece of ground there is nothing like
the drill. Each square inch has it's
own seed, and no plant need have more
or less than the piece of ground we desire
it to occupy. The different results arise
from the facts we have stated in this way {:
Wnen Wneat plant sprouts lew roots
come out just above the grain, and the
sprout makes its way to the surface;
when it gets there it pushes out another
set of roots just at the surface, and COM
mences to stool out. The real life of the
plant does not commence until the sur
face has been reached and start made
in this way. Now if the grain is put an
inch below the surface by the drill, it has
to work its way up; and the ease with
which it will do this depends on how the
soil is pulverized and what its texture is.
If it be sandy it will come to the surface,
no matter if put three inches deep; or in
heavier soil, if we'll worked and no rain
follows. But if 1t becomes wet, and the
soil settles firm, the sprouting germ can
not come to the surface easily, and it
rots away. Here we see how it is posi-
BILE that drilled wheat results badly.
Broadcast sowing does not generally
bury the seeds deeply; and hence on
stiff ground, where the deep-drilled seeds
would rot, if circumstances favored the
shallow seeding, it would be thought to
be against the drill. But there are many
circumstances which at times operate
against this system. In those springs
when there is much freezing and thawing,
for instance, the broadcast grain will be
much more likely to thrown out than the
drilled. In such season the grain which
has the deepest hold on the ground will
be the most successful. Thus wesee that

The Newspaper Suppression.

The telegraph announced, about week
ago, that the New Orleans Times had been
suspended by Judge Durell, and the of
fee taken possession of by the United
States Marshal. The dispatch was evil
IDENTIFY intended to deceive the public,
and cause an excitement in the North
over what seemed despotic act. Nothing
more was heard of this mysterious busi-
ness until the mail brought us the partic-
ulars. Then we learned the facts about
the matter. 1t was true that, upon the
order of the Court, the office of the New
Orleans Times was seized by the United
States Marshal, and the publication of the
paper suspended. But the enterprising
news agent in New Orleans forgot to
state that the Office was seized as any
other property is taken, at the suit of one
of the creditors of the paper, the estab-
lishment having been thrown into bank
ruptcy. Of course the editors of the
Times declare this movement to be part
of the "foul conspiracy" but we know
enough about such things to understand
that "foul conspiracies" do not manufac-
ture promissory notes, with our sigma.
lures on them, year or two overdue.
If every proceeding to collect such notes
up here was denounced as a conspiracy,
and the Court issuing the writs, and its
officers, rallied at as "minions of power" !"
we should have very lively time indeed
Let the Times pay its debts, and not shell
ter its shortcomings financially under
nonsensical twaddle about despotisms and
conspiracies. We shal; expect to hear
soon of every man in New Orleans who
is sued for butchers or tailor's bill
appealing to the people of the United
States against the 'fmost atrocious tyran-
ny that ever oppressed a free people "
We have had something too much of
this. Let Louisiana remain quiet for a
little while and give Alabama a chance
