The Care of Oil CI.,...

An oil-cloth requires careful treatment, and
should never be scrubbed with brush, but
after first being swept with the long-handled
hair brushes that are made for the purpose,
it should be carefully washed with a large,
soft cloth dipped into milk and WATERFALL.
and-half; or, If the milk is not obtainable,
tepid water without soap. The latter ruins
oil-cloth by taking off the brightness of the
paint, and it should never be applied to it.
Hot water is also very injurious to it,; either
Oh them-soap or hot water-being sure to
injure the oil-cloth more than the wear of IL.
When washed over, wipe it off with soft,
dry cloth, and it will always retain bright
look. In purchasing an oil-cloth, it is very
desirable to obtain one that has been made
for several years, as the longer it has lain un-
washed the better 1t will wear-the paint be-
coming harder and more durable. An oil
cloth made within the year is hardly worth
buying, as the paint will be defaced in a
short time.-W. Rural.

Prof. Horsford of Harvard University, has
published receipt for improving and pre-
serving cider, by means OF which the progress
of the vinous acetic lamentations may be
arrested at pleasure, and the cider preserved
in just such state as desired. 1t is this:
"Put the new cider into clean casks or
barrels, and allow it to ferment from one TO
three weeks, according as the weather is
cool or warm. When it has attained to
lively fermentation, add to each gallon three
fOurths of pound of white sugar, and let
the whole ferment again until it possesses
nearly the brisk, pleasant taste which it is
desirable should be permanent. Pour out q
quart of the cider and mix with it one quar-
ter of an ounce of sulphite of lime for every
gallon the cask contains. Stir it until it is
thoroughly mixed, and pour the emulsion
into the liquid. Agitate the contents of the
cask thoroughly for few moments, then let
it rest that the cider may SETTLE Fermenta-
ton will be arrested at once, and will not
be resumed. 1t may be bottled in the course
of few weeks, or it may be allowed to re-
main in the cask and used on draught, II
bottled it will become a sparkling cider of
surprising excellence"
Prof. Horsford was the first to use the
sulphite of lime for this purpose, and to him
is due the credit of first calling attention to
its usefulness. 1t is iu no respect deleterious,
as the sulphate, into which the sulphite is
changed by the liberation of sulphurOus acid,
is entirely insoluble, and remains at the bot
tom of the vessel. Remember it is the sui
phite of lime, not sulphate, that must be used.
The quality of the cider will remain un-
changed for transformation Telegraph

Making Cheese.


Among the exhibitors of cheese at the re.
cent Maine State Show was Mrs. s. j..
Hawes, of Readf1eld, whose contribution was
highly spoken Of. The follow is given as her
method of making cheese:-
Set the milk at night when warm. Cross
it of and let it remain in the tnb until morn
ing. Then dip into the basket or tray to
drain. Set the mornings milk, cross it off as
soon as it comes. When the whey has par
TALLY separated from the curd, dip it in with
the other. Cut frequently so as to have it
well drained. Slice thin, scald, salt little
and hang up in a warm place. Proceed in
the same way with the milk the next morn
ing, observing, the second morning, to slice
the old curd into pail Of cold water, and let
it remain till the new curd is sufficiently
drained. Then put all together, scald, salt,
chop quickly and put into pans while warm.
Let it remain in press till next morning,
turning the cheese and changing the cloth in
about two hours after it is put into press, and
once or twice after. By experiment we, find
it takes about nine pounds of milk to make
one pound of cheese.

GALVESTON, Texas, has two men
who have seen George Washington.
One Of them was boy in his fathers
housein New Jersey, at which Wash
ington stopped, the other is unmarried
and wishes his name suppressed for
fear that his age will be surmisea. 1t
is waste OF material to have two such
men in one small city. One of them
ough to be sent to the Smithsonian
Institute and saved for the Centennial.
We presume, however, that theresare 3
number in the country who have seen
Washington. Necessarily one would
not have to be over IS years old to do
it. All of which leads us to reflect
that we are very young nation.

r own N Nominating Conventions.

We would urge every Republican in
iowa, county to attend the nominating
in his town shis spring.
Owing to negligence on the part of
Republicans, the Republican party
last fall lost control of affairs in sever
al States, and experience shows in every
instance that the change has been for
sth, worse. This should not be allow
cd to occur again, and the time to be-
gin the work of preventing its recur-
renee is just now.
s&xLet us organize for this spring
campaign and then keep organized.
Attend the town nominating conven-
.tion and see to it that the best men
ARE nominated for the different Offices,
and then 60 to work and elect them.
:det us thus begin at the beginning, and
mot stop till all departments of our
government are under the control of
men who reason and act in accordance
with the principles of right and JUS
tfce.
We owe this duty to ourselves and
to. our country. The Democratic party
of to-day is the same that it always
was. 1t has changed its name repeat
eddy, but it has failed in every instance
TO show any evidence of change of
heart. 1t has of late made great
professions of reform, but we challenge
it to point to single act of reform
which it has instituted. 1t cries, "Stop
thief" but it does not stop thieving.
It processes to be the friend of the
aoboring man. but when it comes to the
test it votes down bill to protect him
while at his hazardous work; and
when it is proposed to do away with
the unjust determinations of great
railroad monopolies by Congressional
legislation it raises its old-tim cry of
unconstitutional" There is GER
tainly no good reason why the people
should keep such party in power.

6 "A PARTY of competent men are now
busily at work examining the ground
of the two proposed routes for the in
-ter-oceanic canal which is to unite the
Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. 1t is
generally understood that the canal is
, to be. built, and it is believed that
both routes in question are practicable.
The Nicaragua route involves re-
storing the harbor at Greytown and the
Atrato Darisn route the digging of a
tremendous tunnel three miles long,
and large enough for full masted
ship to sail through, So far it ap-
pears that the Nicaragua route is pre-
fsrable. We shall probably have a
decision when the explorers return.

Death Of John Kennedy.

Wednesday evening, about nine o'clock.
John Kennedy. who was severely wounded
in the head while at his post on the four.
teenth instant, passed quietly away. He
was sitting up at the time. having his head
prepared for the night, and when told it
was ready, made no answer. and it was then
seen he had died in his chair. Although
fears of his life were early entertained. his
condition during the pas: few days war
ranted hopes of his recovery. But in add;.
ton to his wounds he was grea: sufferer
from asthma. and early hardships had IN.
dermined his constitution. When only a
boy he joined Walker in Nicaragua. and
was one Of the sixteen Of Lopez men
who were captured in Cuba and sent to
Spain. He was one Of the eariies: to Join a
Confederate regiment. and served faithfully
the tag he joined throughout the war with
out receiving a wound. Almost all the
balance of his life was spen: On tie police
force of New Orleans.
IN his life he was quiet and unasscr ing.
good officer. good soldier. and a good
citizen. His niodesty prevented h:s tine
qualities from being appreciated. and many
times he saw himself pu: aside for another.
But he never mucmured. and always did
his duty. He was srea. sufferer. but no
one ever heard him complain.
He leaves good reputation. wife and
newly born child. but harliy anys hing
more. L. is not too much to sugges: to those
who have kindly thoughts OF his memory
that more substantial tokens could not be
m,sappiied in this case.
