HOME, FARM AND GARDEN.

"A genuine corn. pone is made thusly:
Corn meal and water mixed TO a rather
stiff batter, sailed to taste, and baked well
in hot oven.
1t is said that the fumes Of sugar
snuffed up the nose will cure ordinary
cases of neuralgia. Put a small quantity
of sugar on a hot shovel and try it as d.
rected.
Corn meal cakes for morning dish
One quart sour milk; two or three eggs;
teaspoonful of saleratus, not heaped 4;
two level full of salt Mix thick with
corn meal, and fry after steak, or in lard.
Light Corn Bread -Scald one quart
white corn meal with one quart hot water
then add half cup molasses, one teaspoon
full salt and one quart cold water. Stir
well, and add one quart meal, half pint
yeast Let rise in warm place for ten
hours, then stir well, put in the skillet
and bake by the fireplace four hours. If
you haven't hop yeast add half pint salt
rising yeast before putting to bake.
"A Nice Omelet.-Beat two eggs,
yolks and whites together, in bowl,
until very light. In cup put one table
spoonful of corn starch; add slowly a
half teaspoonful of milk new milk ia
best; when well stirred and smooth pour
this over the eggs, and beat them all well
together for few minutes; little
chopped parsley can be added if wished.
Cook as other omelets. In making any
kind of omelet, salt and pepper should
not be added until sent TO table; and to
have them perfectly light and tender the
Ingredients must be well and quickly
beaten with the fork.
Remedy for Sore Throat.-Takc one
large red pepper, such as are grown for
family use; steep in half pint Of water,
after which strain in quart Of molasses,
adding little vinegar; boil all together
TO thin syrup; use this whenever the
throat feels dry or disagreeable; If 1t be
in dead of night it will soothe the throat
land not irritate) and warm it up well. If
sharper than can be borne in the mouth,
put il back near the palate with spoon
and swallow; apply outwardly thin
slice Of salt pork, warming 1t up well in
vinegar and pepper; apply as hot as can
be borne on the throat.-Medicdt Journal.
The Journal Of the Farm offers few
good suggestions upon kitchens. IL
recommends that the housewife, instead OF
wearing out her muscle and her temper
scrubbing floors, should resort TO the sim
pie expedient of painting. All that is
necessary is two quarts of oil three
pounds of ochre and one pint of japan,
which will paint a floor twelve by eight
cen feet. The time taken to clean a
painted floor and the labor saved are
equal TO ten times the cost. The writer
also suggests another convenience, viz: A
good sized sink, five or six feet long by
two and half wide, at the back; at the
top Of this sink should be shelf for
lamps, vases, etc., under ii place for
ironware, and at the ends two pumps
one for hard and the other for soft water.

Green MaEares.

In many parts Of the country one OF the
most serious questions is that OF manure.
One may be 80 situated as not 10 make it
profitable or convenient TO keep much
stock and yet if manure has to be pur.
chased it is seldom that it can be done so
as TO leave much profit. On the other
hand, it is clearly loss to farm poor
ground; and thus between these upper
and neither millstones" one hardly knows
what to do.
In some places much use is made or
green manures. That is, the land is sown
with some id-growing crop, which,
after it has grown considerably, Is
plowed down; and in this way the land
Is fertilized Clover is often used for
this purpose, and in the South the cow
pea There is some considerable labor
involved in this style Of manuring; but
this Is not all in most cases. A whole sea
son is generally lost In this way Of fertil-
izing the ground.
Still in many cases even this has been
found to pay, instead Of buying either

and then I'm about through" and she
hunted round lively; no steak, no chicken
killed, no anything anywhere, except
some oysters in peach basket under the
shed, and as to opening them
we'll, it was such job, and she
was behind time anyhow, and there
was the table to set yet, and she
felt little discouraged and nervous until
it came into her mind to hunt up some
eggs; so she ran into the hen-house to
hunt ND some right fresh ones, put her
little white hand under an old hen, who
promptly resented the intrusion, got six
eggs, and soon had them boiling on the
stove. The table was soon laid, the things
brought in and the maiden, flushed TO
fever heat told father and mother that
breakfast was ready. Father seemed to
think they might call it an early dinner;
however, he meant to make the best of 1t
and be thankful, but when he took piece
of slapper he looked at it, turned 1t over,
tasted it, and then, Han, what is thisg"
For she had made them Of wheat flour
and water; no salt, egg, or butter in them.
Then he took an egg, looked obviously at
it, broke it and said, why, child, these
eggs were nearly ready 70 hatch, and do
believe thee has robbed the setting hen
mother was counting on so much; and if
we eat these things thee calls slappers,
we shall have the pepsy all day. And
the coffee! Well, / did trust some to
that, but it is as strong as I've, and so very
muddled."
They concluded to laugh it off, as
Hannah had the conceit SO completely
taken out Of her.
"And now, mother, please tell me just
what thee would have had for break
fast."
And mother said she would have
opened the oysters the night before,
Drained them, dipped them in egg, rolled
them in sifted crackers, and had them all
ready to fry in the morning. The cold
potatoes given to the chickens she would
have n ade into nice cakes and fried, and
the stale bread she would have put to
soak in little water, and in the morning
add an egg and some milk, little butter
and salt, and bake like buckwheat cakes
on the grlddle, +" for thee knows father is
so fond of them," she said, " and then he
likes cup of good coffee, and | know
just how to make it."
"And now know there is good rea-
son for having things in proper trim Tor
breakfast before going to bed /; but l had
not an idea that housekeeping was such
heavy work, and all the heavier for not
keeping ahead of it. And to think I've
been so idle and careless, and so little
help to my dear, loving mother. Well,
I'm going to learn and help all can in
the future, at least till. The fact is,
mother, Nathan is going to speak to thee
and father; but what would I do in my
own house, and what would Nathan think
of wife that couldn't make cup of
coffee or a loaf of bread?" Come, girls,
let's all go to work and be helpful.-Ger-

stable manure or commercial fertilizers;
and where land is cheap, and taxes low,
it may perhaps be the best thing that can
be done.
If only some one could suggest some
thing which would grow SO fast that we
could pillow it down and crop the same
season it would be one of the best posi-
BILE of discoveries. Something OF this
kind we find reported in the January
number of the report of the Department
of Agriculture, from an English source.
1t appears that some one had piece OF
land so poor that the wheat yield was
but four bushels per acre. In 1851,
Immediately after harvesting the wheat,
he sowed cow-peas at the rate OF two
bushels per acre. Early in October he
turned the resulting crop under win
deep furrow. A few weeks later ne
sowed on this pea-sod wheat, narrowing
it in carefully. He harvested nine bush
els per acre. He repeated the same proc
ess in 1870, and realized seventeen and
half bushels per acre; and again in 1871,
followed by a yield of twenty-seven bush
els per acre and again in 1872, with a
promise at the time of reporting forty
bushels per acre. Throughout this ex-
pertinent, covering five years, no fertlli-
1
ger except the cow-pea was applied.
This, If correctly reported, is tremen-
dous result; and, if true, eclipses any
thing ever heard of, and is surely worthy
of more thought than is usually given to
newspaper paragraphs. Year after year
the grain was sown on the same land, and
with only about two months growth OF
peas the yield had in four years increased
from four to forty bushels of wheat
With such results as these 1t will hardly
pay, even under the best circumstances,
to haul manure from the stable-yard for
wheat. What has been done in this way
ought TO be done again. Somehow we
can hardly credit this stupendous result;
yet we know that green manuring is ex-
cellent generally, when we give ii a years
growth of the ground, and It may be that
something like this can be done. We
hope what we have written may have the
effect of stimulating trials IN this direc-
tion.--Forney's Press.

rh,ee things never come again.
snow nav vanish from the plain,
RIoseoms from the dewy sod,
yerdure from the broken clod,
water from the nver-bed,
Forests from the mountains head;
Night may brighten into day,
Noon in midnight fade away:
yat the snow snail come once more
when the winter tempests roar:
blossoms each returning spring
In her laden arms shall bring;
Grass be green where plow-shares run;
Rivers fash in autumn's sun;
Time shall bid new forests grow,
Noon and night both come and 60.
Yet. though all thy soul complain,
Three things never come again.
Love may vanish from thy path,
swept aside by woe and wrath;
Hope may leave thee TO despair,
Riches Zee like smoke In air,
Home forsake thee, friends deny,
Life itself be At TO die;
But thy love may come once more.
Dearer than it seemed before,
Hone renew its smiling charm,
Riches heap their subtle harm,
Home be built from out its dust,
Friends beguile TO newborn trust,
Life revive its JOY and pain.
Three things never come again.
Never to the bow that bends
Comes the arrow that IL sends;
spent in space, its airy fight
Vanlshes fike lost delight;
When with rapid aim 1t sprang
From the bow-string's shiyering twang,
Straight to brain or heart 1t fed,
Once for all its course was sped;
No wild wall upon its track
Calls the barb OF vengeance back;
Hold thy hand before 1t go,
Think before thou draw'st the bow;
Hurtled once across the plain,
No sped arrow comes againi
Meier returns the chance that passed,
That one moment was its last;
Though thy life upon n hung,
Though thy death beneath 1t swung,
II thy future all the way
Now forever goes asiray,
When the instant, born OF fate,
Passes through the golden gate,
When the hour but not the man
Comes and goes from Natures plan,
Never more Its cOuntenance
Beams upon thy slow advance,
Never more that time shall be
Burden bearer INTO thee;
Woe and want must cry in vain,
Lost chance never comes again!
Never shall thy spoken word
Be again unsaid. unheard;
Well their work thy lips have wrought,
Joy, or grief, or evil thought;
Once for all the rune is read
Once for all the judgment said,
Though it pierce, poisoned spear,
Through the soul thou holdest dear:
Though 1t culver, fierce and deep,
Through some stainless spirits sleep.
Idle, vain, the flying sting
That passing rage might bring,
Speech shall give 1t fangs OF steel,
Utterance all Its might reveal;
Give thy tears Of blood and fire,
Pray with pangs OF mad desire,
Offer life and sopl and all
That one sentence 10 recall;
Wrestle with its fatal wrath,
Chase with flying feet its path,
Rue it sll thy lingering days,
Hide it deep with love and praise,
Once for all its course IL sped;
None escape IL but the dead;
All thy travail il in vain,
Spoken words come not again
