Recipe for Curing Meat.

The Germantown Tel egraph
gives the following directions for
curing pork: To one gallon Of wa
ter take II pounds of salt, ] pound
sugar, J ounce saltpeter, ounce
potash. In this ratio the pickle
can be increased to any quantity
desired. Let these be boiled until
all the dirt from the sugar rises
to the top and is skinned Off
Then throw it into a tub to cool,
and when cold pour it over your
beef or pork, to remain the usual
time, say four or FIVE weeks. The
meat must be well covered with
pickle, and should not be put
down for OF least two days after
killing, during which time it
should be slightly sprinkled with
powdered saltpeter, which re-
mouse all the surface blood, etc,
leaving the meat fresh and clean
Some omit boiling the pickle, ,and
find it to answer well, though the
operation of boiling purifies the
pickle by throwing of, the dirt
always TO be found in salt and
sugar.
If this recipe is properly tried
it will not be abandoned. There
is none that surpasses it ifas good.

The Candle and the Blind Man

II cannot see it." said a blind
man, when another had assured
him there was a lighted candle
in the room. "But It's here" re-
joined his companion. at is sb-
surd for you to say you cannot
see it. Light cannot be without
revealing itself" Still the blind
man said, II assure you, / cannot
see it.n The other man grew an
CRY. 81 will convince you that it
is here" he exclaimed; at the
same moment seizing the candle
he placed it so close to his face
that it scorched the blind man,
and he, in a mament, dashed it to
the ground Then they acere both
en- darkness.
Our duty is to let our light
shine before men. Instead of that
when others cannot see the light
we imagine it is our duty to en-
force them to admit its existence;
we grow impatient, and present
the truth in such an objectiona-
BILE, way, that we rouse our oppo-
nents to a furious opposition,
which in some cases results in our
losing all the joy and clear per-
ception of the light once mani
fest to us.

Rotation of Crops.

An old French agriculturist
gave the following seven rules as
the fundamental prnciplesof rota-
ton;
l However well soil may be
prepared it can not long nourish
crops of the same kind in success
sion without becoming exhausted.
2 Every crop impoverishes a
soil more or less, according as
more or less is restored to the
soil by the plant cultivated.
Perpendicular roofing plants
and such as root horizontally
ought to succeed each other.
4. Plants of the same kind
should not return too frequently
in rotation.
5. Two plants favorable to the
growth of weeds ought not to
succeed each other.
6. Such plants as eminently
exhaust the soil, as the grains and
oil plants, should only be sown
when the land is in good heart.
Z. In proportion as is found to
exhaust itself by successive crops
plants which are least exhaust
ing ought to be cultivated.

Feed Fowls a Little andOften.

1t is very careless method of
feeding fowls which we see so
often adopted, where the grain
is thrown in great heaps on
the ground or floor. is not only
wastful, but injurious to the fowls
because they get overfed, and
it is an important respect con
trary to their habits. For thei1
natures is to "scrach." Watch the
old hen with a brood where she
hardly stirs from the spot, but az
soon as she has realized her free,
dom down go her claws into the
soil, and afterward, whenever
you see her, she is att.
Always feed, then, no more
than can be eaten at once, and
take care that this is so scattered
amonst some light rubbish that
they may have the luxury OF
scratching for it. If feed is buried
in fresh earth, then they get, with
their mouthfuls of grain, some
thing of use to their peculiar di-
gestive organs. Grain, however,
should not be allowed to come
in contact with the filthy tainted
soil too often found in the poul-
try yard.

to ordinary letters. The ruling is
one of considerable public impor-

Farming as a Business.

Aman who is not smart enough
to run store is not smart enough
to run farm. Farmers are not tc
be out of what is left after law
yers, doctors, ministers, and mer
chants are sorted and picked out
And if man fails on farm he
is not likely to succeed in a store
for it requires more talent to be
a thriving farmer than to be an
average merchant. The one great
failure is the disproportion be-
tween a mans farm and his cap
ltal. A farmers capitol is his skill
labor, and his money. If he has
little cash, he must have no more
land than he can manage by his
personal labor. Every acre be
yond that is an incumbrance.
One acre well worked is more
profitable than twenty acres
skinned over. 1t is this greed of
land by farmers that have not the
capitol to work it, that keeps so
many poor. Small farms are bet
erthan large ones, simply be-
cause they are suited to the cap
ltal OF common farmers.

Farm and Household.
How to Feed Horses.

!"
The following concise sugges-
tions with regard to the food OF
horses are from ssThe London
Horse Book"
All horses must not be fed on
the same proportions, without
regard to their ages, their consti
tutions and work; the improprie
ty of such a practice is selfevi-
dent.
Never use bad hay on account
ofits cheapness, because there is
no proper nourishment in it.
Damaged corn is exceedingly
injurious, because it brings on
inflammation OF the bowels, and
skin diseases.
Chaff is better for old horses
than hay because they can chew
and digest it better.
Mix chaff with corn or beans,
and do not give the latter alone,
because it makes the horse chew
his feod more and digest it bet
Hay or grass alone viii not sup
port a horse under hard work,
because there is not sufficient
nutritive body in either.
When horse is worked hard its
food should be chiefly oats-ii
not worked hard itsfood should be
chiefly hay-because oats supply
more nourishment and fieshmak
ing material than hay or other
kind of food; hay not so much.
For saddle or coach horse half
apeck of sound oats and eight
teen pounds of good hay are
sufficient. If the hay is not good
add a quarter ofa peck more oats.
A horse which works harder may
have rather more of each; one
that works little should have
less.
Rack feeding is wastful. The
better plan is to feed with chop
ped hay from a manger,because
the food is not then thrown about
and Is more easily chewed and
digested.
Sprinkle the hay with water
that has salt dissolved in it, be
cause it is pleasing to the taste,
and more easily digested. A tea
spoonful of salt in a bucket OF
water is sufficient.

color, acitb the gloss and freshness Of
youth. Thin hair is thickened, fall
ing hair checked, and badness often,
though not always, cured by its
use. Nothing can restore the hair
where the follicles are destroyed, or
the glands atrophied and decayed;
but such as remain can be saved by
this application, and stimulated into
activity, so that new growth of
hair is produced. Instead of fouling
the hair with pasty sediment, it
will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use will present the hair
from turning gray. or falling off,
and consequently prevent badness.
The restoration of vitality it gives
to the scalp arrests and prevents
the formation of dandruff, which is
often so uncleanly and offensive.
Free from those deleterious sub
stances which make Some prepara-
tions dangerous, and injurious to the
hair, the Vigor can only benefit, but
not harm it. If wanted merely for
HAIR DRESSING, nothing else
can be found so desirable. Contain
ing neither oil nor dye, it does not
soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich,
glossy lustre, and grateful perfume.
