New York Trlbune.l


The report of the secretary of the
treasury to congress relative to the fa-
nous Sanborn and other contracts has
at length been printed. 1t furnishes
details hitherto unobtainable of what
is now recognized as the grossest con-
spiracy to deiraud the government ever
attempted. The official report does not
tell the whole story, but it supplies
missing links of what has been known
for some time past, aud the shameful
history may now be triefly and clear
~ told in the light of these later revel-
ations.
Into the legislative, executive and
Judicial appropriation bill, approved by
President Grant on May s, 1873 there
was smnggled clause authorizing the
secretary of the treasury to employ not
more than three persons as special
agents to discover and collect any
money, belonging to the United States,
withheld by any person or corporation,
upon such terms and conditions as the
secretary chose. The law us it stands
gives him authority to pay any per
centage to the agent from one to one

To Keep Lemons -Houseke
know how quickly lemons lose their
freshness and rot. A simple and mex
pensive remedy is to place them in jar
filled with water, to be renewed every
day or two. BY this means fruit can be
kept fresh and sound for several weeks.
Remedy for Horse Cough Take one
pint of wheat bran, wet it with water;

horse may have. The tar oil can be had
at any drug store; it costs but trit1e,
Orange Cake-Five eggs-saving out

half cup of water, grated rind and juice
Of one orange, one teaspoonful cream of
tartar, one half teaspoonful of salt, one
cup of flour. Bake in four cakes, and
put frosting between the cakes and over
the top. For the frosting take white of
an egg, one cup OF sugar, and one-half
the juice and rind Of an orange.
arving.-Although it is daily duty
for many men and women to cut up meat
for family, there are multitudes who do
it neither well nor wise The following
suggestions, from an agricultural paper,
on this point, may not be out of place, the
more especially to young housekeepers:
To carve fowls, Which should always be
laid with the breast uppermost, place the
fork in the breast and take off the wings
and legs, without turning the fowl then
cut out the merry thought; cut slices from
the breast; cut out the collar bone; cut off
the side pieces, and then cut the carcass
IN two. Divide the joints in the leg of
turkey. In carving a sirloin, cut thin
slices from the side next to you Git must
be put on the dish the tenderloin under
neath), then turn it. Help the guests to
both kinds. In carving leg of mutton
or ham, begin by cutting across the
middle to the bone. Cut tongue across,
and not lengthwise, and help from the
middle. Carve torequarter of lamb by
separating the shoulder from the ribs
and then divide the ribs TO carve loin
of veal, begin at the smaller end and
separate the ribs. Help each one to a
piece OF kidney and its fat. Carve pork
and mutton in the same way. To carve a
tillet OF veal, begin at the top and help to
the stutling with each slice. In a breast
of veal, separate the breast and brisket,
and then cut up, asking which part is
preferred.

How to Solder Holes in Copper
Tea Kettle.

A domestic left the tea-kettle on the
stove, where the copper bottom was
heated almost to rcdness. The conse-
quence was that two small cracks APP
peared in the bottom, through which the
water issued so rapidly that the kettle
could not be used A tinker with his
soldering iron failed to stop the leak after
several efforts. With small piece Of
sand paper we secured the copper bright
on the inside near the cracks, then pull
verified piece of rosn half as large as a
small pea and spread the powder over the
cracks on the bright surface of the cop
per, on the inner side of the kettle, and
rubbed the rosin down with a finger.
Then small piece Of solder, about the
size of large pea, was laid on each crack,
inside the kettle, and the kettle was
placed on the hot stove until the solder
melted. AS soon as the solder had melt
ed the kettle was removed, and as the
solder began to cool, while it was in a
plastic state, the smooth end of a stick
was pressed on the solder to fatten the
surface. Those cracks were stopped
neatly in briefer space Of time than is
required to write the m0d'lS 0perdndi of
such a job Holes in tin vessels can be
mended in the same manner without a
soldering iron.-N. \. Herald.

Raising Sheep successfully.

THERE is no difficulty in raising sheep
successfully if the necessary care be taken.
This can all the more be secured if but
few are kept Then there is a chance of
properly seeing To them, and keeping
only good stock, which is the most profit.
able. The farmer who has the long.
wooded, heavy bodied sheep has great
advantage in his lambs. With a small
flock it needs but little care to save the
lambs and command early in the season
not only the top price, but more, if the
breed is large, healthy one, and the
lambs come early and are well taken care
Of The wool also will realize well.
If there is land to be cleared of shrubs
and weeds, or is steep, or broken up so
that the plow cannot be used, sheep are
the thing to subdue it and establish Il
! growth Of grass. No greater profit can
be realized from such land than by keep
ing sheep. But even where the land is
all tillablc, and heavy crops can be
raised, a few sheep can, in general be
| kept with advantage, as there is always
time enough to see to few sheep. See
to them well, keep only what is good,
providing always there is anear and good
market This on the principle of carry
mate, locality, etc, will admit.
Even during the depressed period, ,
when sheep were slaughtered in the West
for their pelts, and wool was drug, there
were farmers who "made it pay" to keep
Sheep-they were heavy, longwoolcd,
bore large limbs proliically, which found
ready and good market, while the wool
-Combing wuol-irom such sheen, kept
| in the best manner, SO rs to secure in per
1 lection the finest properties TO the fleece,
realized something, and could always be
| sold, however staguant and reduced the
| market. Then, instead of two or three
| pounds of wool per head, fine to seven
were averaged. Those men continued
I their sheep with little or no loss-some
/ ayerring they realized profit during the
/ discouraging period; and when the
| times changed and flush prices prevailed
! las is always the case in any branch) they
/ got the benetit-they were the only ones
| there to receive it,, the rest having with
drawn, and they have been receiving it
ever since. 1t is not a question whether
this or that branch will pay best
The thing is to carry alb the branches
| or rs many as circumstances viii permit
to carry to advantage, and continue to do
SO whether prices are favorable or not
| Prices will regulate themselves through
supply and demand, SO that the dyeyagc
will beremunerativc, only, however, where
care and discretion are used, and the best
is made of each branch The success in
/ farming consists in doing well what is

be one of these few and ne will be safe
