THEFARM AND HOUSEHOLD
Brine for Preserving Butter.

The Duchess Former says: To
three gallons of brine strong enough to
bear an egg add q quarter Of pound
Of nice white sugar and one tablespoon,
ful of saltpeter. Boil the brine, and
wWA it is cold strain carefully. Make
yodAbutter into rolls, and wrap each
roll separately in clean white muslin
cloth, tying up with string. Pack a
large jar full, weight the butter down.
and pour over the brine until all is sub.
merged. This will keep reall y good
butter perfectly sweet and fresh for a
whole year. Be careful to not put
upon ice butter that you wish to keep
for any length of time. In summer,
when the heat will not admit Of butter
being made into rolls, pack closely in
small jars, and using the same brine,
allow it to cover the butter to the
depth of at least four inches. This ex-
cludes the air and answers very nearly
as we'll as the first method suggested

Household Hints.

Perhaps the very best dish Of pre-
pared apples for the table is to bake
Slowly, with just neat enough not to
break the skin. When done lay open
and remove the core; sprinkle with SUI
gar, (granulated is best) and work su-
gar and pulp together; work to fine
consistency, which few strokes of the
spoon will do; then close the skin upon
it and lay away to cool; it ought to be
eaten cold. An Asopus Spitzenburg is
the best fruit for it, and the best time
for it is about the holidays
Never boil coffee. The reason is that
not only the better part of it the ex-
hilerating) escapes, but that the extrac'
tive properties, which, if largely used,
are unhealthy, are alone present. Bring
up to the boiling point, but do not boil.
You thus get sufficient Of the extrac.
tive matter to give body, retsining all
the volatile, healthy, and relishing prop
critics.
To mend chinaware, take very, thick
solution Of gum arabic, and stir into it
plaster of paris until the mixture is of
a proper consistency. Apply it with a
brush to the fractured edges Of the
chinaware and stick them together. In
4 few days it will be impossible to break
the article in the same place. The
whiteness of the cement renders it
doubly valuable.
1t is said that drops prepared as fol-
lows will cure the worse case of tooth
ache ever known: One ounce of alcohol,
two drahms Cayenne pepper, one ounce
kerosene oil; let it stand twenty.four
hours after mixing. y. :

The Board of the Industrial School
who have the real management of all
the details of this magnificent scheme,
comprise some of the most honorable
and widely known citizens Of the State.
AS their immediate agent and manager,
they have selected j. W. Fralick, of
St. Paul, whose name is synonymous
with honor and untiring energy, as es.
pecially shown in the perfectly sue
cessful and satisfactory manner in
which he conducted the recent distri-
button of the Wann property in St.
Paul..
Another guarantee to purchasers Of
shares is found in the fact that all
moneys arc to be held by Hon. John S
Prince, cashier Of the st. Paul Savings
Bank, who will retain them nnta the
distribution takes place, and the deeds,
etc., for all the property has been de-
posted with him, thus securing the
shareholder from all possibility of loss.
! The distribution will take place on
or before March lst. Communications
should be addressed to J. w. Fralick,

In the absence of the ordinary ap-
plications, such as adhesive plaster, &C.,
use cotton wool, which is more gener.
ally at hand. It has many advantages
over other dressings: in being light it
does not pain, but relieves it; it is a
protection to the wound from other in
jury, and need not be removed as soon
or as often as other applications. 1t
should be applied in quantity and with

COMMERCIAL MATTERS.

At. Paul Wholesale Market, Dec. I.
Business opens up quite briskly and
dealers anticipte fair volume for the
week.
The elevator opened this morning for
the reception of wheat from teams, and
quite number Of farmers from the sur
rounding country took advant.
age of the opportunity thus
afforded to market their wheat here.
Those coming in this morning report
the roads very bad, not enough snow to
make sleighing, and the rough icy sur.
face, making the wheeling very
bad, necessitating small loads and
very careful driving to avoid disasters,
and but few will attempt to move their
grain until we have good fall of snow.
Probably 25 loads have been re-
ceived this morning up to the time Of
going to press, for which the
price paid per bushel ranged
from IS to Soc; the latter for
No. l. It should be remembered that
the elevator company buy or sell no
wheat. Their business is simply stor-
ing for the producer or the purchaser,
on which they will make liberal ad-
vances. But buyers will be at the ele-
vator all the time prepared to
pay the very highest cash price
for all offerings, so that
those desiring to sell, can be assured of
always finding purchasers. The quota
tions above are from actual sales to-
day, and all future quotations will be
made in the same way.
Corn scarce and in light request ;
nominally 60 to IS on track and IS to
70c in store.
Oats in fair request and firm at 81 to
SIC on track and 81 to 55c in store.

There is no improvement to note in

with a fairly active request. Fresh
clean lots of chickens bring 8 to 9c
turkeys 8 to l0c and geese SC.
The outside price for dressed hogs

Chinese Eishi ENatching.

A curious mode Of fish Matching is
said to be followed in China. Having
collected the necessary spawn from the
waters edge, the fishermen place GER
tain quantity in an empty hens egg,
which is sealed up with wax and put
under the sitting hen. After some
days they break the egg, and empty
the fry into water we'll warmed by the
sun, and there nurse them until they
are sufficiently strong to be tuEped. into

THE TILTON-BEECHER SCANDAL.
Frank M0ultOn'S Statement.
''our Mutual Fricnd'' Before the
COMMITTEES.

New York, Aug. 10.
The following is Moulton's statement
made before the committee on IMonday
last and his subsequent brief examination
Gentlemen of the Committee When
was last before you stated that | would,
at your request, produce such documents
as had and make such statement of facts
as had come to my knowledge on the sub
ject of your inquiry. fully intended so
to do and have prepared my statements of
facts as sustained by the documents and
made an exhibit Of all the papers that have
come in any way in my possession bearing
on the controversy between the parties
That statement must of course bear with
more or less force upon one or the other
of them. On mature reflection, aided by
the advice of my most valued friends, |
have reconsidered that determination and
am obliged TO say that feel compelled
from sense of duty to the parties, to my
relation to their controversy and to myself
neither to make the statement nor to pro
duce documents.
When first became party to the un-
happy controversy between Beecher and
Tilton had no personal knowledge nor
any document in my possession which
could affect either. Everything | know of
fact or have received of papers has come
to me in most sacred confidence to be used
for the purpose OF composing and settling
all difficulties between them and of pre-
venting so far as possible every knowledge
of their private affairs being brought to the
public notice. For this purpose all their
matters have been entrusted to me, and for
no other. If | should now use them it
would not be for the purpose of peace and
reconciliation but to voluntarily take part
in controversy which they have seen fit
to renew between themselves. How faith
fully, earnestly and honestly have labored
to do my duty to the parties for peace,
they both know. The question for me to
settle for myself and no other is now
ought to do anything to aid either party
in renewed controversy by use of that
which | received and have used only to
promote harmony ON my honor and con-
science and think | ought not and at
the risk of whatever of misconstruc-
