Poetry of the Table,

More appetizing than all patent tonics is
perfectly arranged table, sparkling with
cleanliness. So let us be little extrava.
giant in our fresh table-cloths, when soap,
water, and little labor are all we have to
pay. And now we must decide, shall we
have the best china, and do with some
stoneware for every day or shall we pay
ourselves the respect usually reserved fol
company? Clearly, we are the persons to
whom it is of the most Importance. Shall
we sit down to odd plates and cracked sau.
GERS six days that we may enjoy gilded
china the seventh? By no means. We
will have plain white French china, which
can always be matched when broken, and
we will sit down to it every day. In the
same way we will bring out the plated
knives and silver forks, and partake of our
food with sense of our own deserts. We
shall feel increased respect for ourselves,
also, with napkins and butter plates SO
those we win have.

Stakes for Tomatoes.

Thomas Meehan, the horticulturist of
Germantown, Pa, says he has for several
years noted the relative advantages of the
different ways of cultivating tomatoes,
and he concludes that the best practice to
adopt is to proceed as with the Lima
beans that is, set the stakes before the
plants are put out. These stakes need
not be over six feet high, and may be set
about four feet apart each way. AS the
plants grow, tie them up to the stakes
but that will not be required over half a
dozen times during the season. Twenty
plants in this way will yeild as much fruit
as double the quantity on any other plan,
and in quality there is no comparison.
The common field plan of leaving toma-
toes to grow as they list, spreading every
where over the ground, may be, as truck
growers say it is, the way in which the
heaviest weight of fruit can be had in pro-
portion to the labor spent but in this way
the fruit is more acid. But whatever sys-
tenn is adopted, do not set the plants out
until the soil is warm, or they will be stunt
cd and time lost.-Moores Rural.

Yeast.

A Minnesota housekeeper furnishes
recipe, which she says makes the best yeast
known to civilized women. She has kept
1t three months in the hottest weather and
much longer in cool weather, and never
had any sour. The flour should be
thoroughly dried by the fire before being
made into sponge, an important item of
which many young housekeepers are igno-
rant. The sponge should be set at noon,
mixed at night, and nodded next morning.
Stirring tho sponge after it begins to fer
ment makes the bread white. Now the
recipe One quart of hops put lightly in
the cup; one quart of potatoes pared and
sliced one pint of corn Drowned like cof-
fee; put the hops in small bag, add three
quarts of boiling water; boil two hours.
Strain through colander add one cup of
white sugar, half a cup of salt, and water
to make five quarts of the mixture. When
lukewarm add one pint of the same yeast
without meal or flour, as that might sour
after while. Half cup is enough for
baking, large or small. The yeast must
be made in tin or porcelain. Let it stand
twenty-four hours in warm room, then
bottle or can tightly and keep in a cool
cellar. Half the ingredients will do for
small family.

Remedy for the Cabbage Worm.

A correspondent of the New York Times,
replies TO man who wants to know how
to free his cabbage from the cabbage worm.
Thirty years, experience enables me to
tell him. Get what is called here ship

wheat bran will do as good as the shorts ;
examine the cabbage before they head il

Pruning.

The proper time to prune trees is said to
he in June, when the tree is fully develop
ed. Visitors to the Experimental Farm,
in Chester county, are shown the limbs Of
an apple troe of considerable size that had
been sawed off during different months Of
the year with view to demonstrate the
comparative healing Of the stumps. The
edges Of the wound were found to heal
most thoroughly and quickly where the
pruning had been done in June. This,
says the Practical Farmer, corresponds
with sound theory, as the tree is in it.

While loving hands shall point the way,
