Marriage Under Difficulties.

Several months ago Il young couple ut
Hermon commenced to play with Cupid
and found him u charming little fellow
The father Of the young lady found out
what was going on and forbade the young
man, to visit his daughter. The only APP
parent reason for this action of her father
seemed to be that trouble had some time
been had between the families. The lovers
made no protest, and the father tlattered
himself that he had broken up the match
He was mistaken, tor no sooner had the
lovers received the mandate OF her father
than they began to court on the sly. A
fow days ago they made up their minds
that they could live without each other no
longer. Accordingly the miss made all
preparations and went with her beau to an
Squire's, where they We're made happy
Shortly after she had left the house Of her
father, that individual discovered her alb
sence, and taking y Young man with him
started up the road with a team in search
of his daughter. They soon met the hap
py couple when the father ordered his
daughter into his carriage. The husband
protested against this saying that they
We're legally married, and the whole party
went back to the Squire'' to satisfy the
father Of the truthfulnes Of the assertion.
The Squire corroborated the statements of
the young man, which seemed to enrage
the brides father more than ever, and in
spite of the bridegroom the young lady
was placed in her fathers wagon, taken
home, and locked into her room, the angry
parent taking the caution to first nail up
the window. Eugene's wrath knew no
bounds and he aided in making beaten
road, by walking back and forth in front
of the house all night. In the morning he
threatened the father with legal steps to
recover his wife, and the father concluding
his case was decidedly lame one, allowed
his daughter to go in peace, and the young
folks were made happy.
The affair creates a sensation such as
Hermon has not known for many day.
The sympathies of the people are entirely
with the newly married couple The
young man is steady and industrious, and
the bride is a good housekeeper and we
hope they may meet with the prosperity
their perseverance merits. Bangor Com

To Sweeten Butter Firkins.

Our readers who are engaged in the
manufacture of butter often experience
considerable difficulty in keeping the
tirkins sweet A failure to accomplish this
very frequently entails upon the manutact-
urers severe loss, and to them we pre-
sent the following information concerning
this matter which will be found of consid-
cradle benefit. Before packing butter in
new tirkins, put them out of doors in the
vicinity of the well, fill them with water,
and throw in few handsfull of salt. Let
them stand three OF four days, and change
the water o@ce during that time. Butter
frkins should be made of white oak, and
this process eff,ectually takes out the acid
contained in that wood and makes the
firkin sweet. If the butter is well made
and rightly packed, it will keep good all
Summer; even if the tirkin be kept in
store above ground To clense old tirkins
in which butter has been packed and left
exposed some time to the air, fill with
sour milk, and leave standing twenty -four
hours, then wash them clean, and scald
with brine This makes them as good as

Cultivation of Smilax,

Mr. j. Wick, than whom there is no bet
ter authority as a florist, gives the follow
ing directions for the househould culture
of this plant, now so much used in floral
decorations, for twining the hair, and for
trimming party dresses; with little
care it can be grown successfully as a
house plant The seeds should be sown in
box or in pots in the house. and should
be kept moist till the young plants appear.
The seed being rather slow to germinate,
you must not think it bad if it does not
make its appearance in two weeks. The
young plants should be potted OFT into
three-inch pots as soon as they are three
or four inches high. Once a year the bulbs
should be allowed to dry off and rest.
They will start into growth again in
about six weeks. The vine does not re-
qulre the full sun, but will grow well in a
partially shaded situation. It can be train
ed on small thread across the window
OF around pictures. 1t is a climbing vine,
and will attach itself to string in Just
about the right condition to use for
wreaths, etc, or when required for lighter
work, the branches which become entan-

Corn Stalks for Horses.

saw an inquiry in the Rural New York
er, asking if corn stalks were good for
horses, when dry or cured; also, how to
cure the sowed corn | thought a few facts
from the experience ofan old farmer might
be of service to the inquirer, and might
benefit some others | would say, you may
cut up your sowed corn with a corn cutter,
OF you can reap it with sickle, OF you can
cradle it with a short, stiff cradle, or you
may slash it down with q reaper and self
rake, which works wen. Let the otalh,
lie to wilt, then bind IN small bundles and
set each bundle in q shock, then bind them
together at the top, in good weather they
will cure in about four OF five weeks, ready
to draw in Such corn fodder is the best
food for horses ever used. The horses
wind is always good, they are not subject
to disease, and | think will stand longer
drive Should the horse have the heaves
OF cough, feed corn and corn stalks, in 4
short time he is free in breathing and can
stand work If the horses should refuse to
ca. the stalks and cause t 30 much waste to
please, then wet and pat on meal and
shorts in proportion to the animals wants

Sheep Eating Their Wool.

Instances of sheep eating their own
wool are quite common, especially during
the latter part Of winter, and early in the
spring. Somo have thought the habit 70
suited from the presence Of small para
sites, As minute as the red spider of some
Towering plants, which produce an irrita-
lion, and to allay this the sheep acquired
the habit of biting hisown skin and there
by eating his own wool it is generally
believed, however, that the habit is anala-
gous to that OF hens eating their own shells,
and the abnormal appetite of cows for old
bones, woolen rags, etc, and is caused by
an exhaustion OF the phosphate in the soil
Old pastures or fields that have long been
cropped are deficient IN these elements.
hence the absence of them in the feed and
consequent want of them by the animals.
As a preventive, mix a small quantity of
bone meal with corn meal and give them
an occasional feed. Sulphur also has been
found to he preventive OF the habit, and
many farmers keep their stock constantly
with 1t 1t no doubt assists in giving
healthY tone to the system
