HOME. FARM AND GARDEN.

Jelly Cake.-Four eggs, one and a
half cups of sugar, half cup butter;
beat well together, add three cups of
-four. one cup of buttermilk, two tea
spoonfuls baking powder and little
nutmeg; beat we'll together. Spread
upon the jelly-cake tins and bake two at
a time. When baked put upon plate
and spread the jelly on, and so on till the
last. Do not put any jelly on the top of
the last, but little white sugar pulver-
lied. Red currant jelly or plum is best.
Golden Hair.-Since golden hair is
so much in favor, it is well for mothers
to know that they can preserve the
golden color of their children's locks by
q persistent and careful washing with
CASTLE soap and water The hair should
be braided and dipped epeatedly into the
suds and then wiped with towel, and
this operation should be performed once
in four or five days. If persevered in, the
roots of the hair may darken as the child
grows older, but the mass will keep its
sunny tints as long as the owner wishes.
Erchdnge.
-Corned Beef.-To have corned beef
good land its goodness depends very
much on this) it should be boiled gently
and thoroughly; it is not too long after
it begins to boil to allow an hour to
every pound. Corned beef is excellent
served cold; nice way to prepare it for
this is to lay it, when done, into a pan OF
earthen dish and cover it with a board
the size of the meat and press it by
placing upon the board heavy weight.
By pressing salt meat it is very much
improved; while boiling corned beef the
same care should be observed in skim
ming it as for fresh meat.
Patching Poultry.-For table use
fowls that are killed directly from free
range, where they have been well fed for
some time previously, and having taken
plenty of exercise, are in perfect health,
are to be preferred to those who have
been kept in close coop, in connection
with their own eXcrement and polluted
atmosphere. 1t is true that a greater
amount of fat can be produced in pro-
portion to the grain fed when confine-
ment is resorted to, and, if the birds are
well attended to and the term of confine-
ment is short, there is not much danger
of disease. Still poultry running at
large in the air and sunshine is always to
be preferred.
Why Potatoes Run Out.-A Steuben
County IN. W farmer is reported as say
ing: Some one asks why it is that pota-
toes SO soon run out There are two
grand reasons. There are but few po-
tatoes in hill that are tit for seed some
are overgrown, coarse, rank and will not
transmit the original quality. Others
are undergrown and not fully-developed
seed. A potato of medium size, perfect
in all its parts, with change of ground,
will produce its like ad fnfnttum. One
other reason-cutting potatoes between
stem and seed-end continually will de-
mora,ize the institution. 1t requires the
stem and seed end to make perfect seed.
If cut, cut lengthwise. Single eyes will
run out any potato. There is no seed
that will bear mutilation like the potato !;
the only wonder is that it does not run
out completely.

growths, but also as valuable aid in
the determination of insects.
The wash that have used Is prepared
oy placing half bushel of lime and
four pounds of powdered sulphur in a
tight barrel, shaking the lime with hot
water, the mouth of the barrel being
covered with cloth. This is reduced to
the consistence of ordinary whitewash,
and at the time of application half an
ounce of carbolic acid is added to each
gallon Of the liquid; as matter of taste
In color l have added small portion of
SCOT, but think that the white color is
best for the trees. generally apply it
during early spring before the leaves
make their appearance, but / am con-
WINGED that it would be more effective if
applied later; but then it would be diff
cult to do so when the tree is in foliage.

From the Grand Rapids (Mich) Eagle.
The celebrated advertising agency of s. NJ.
Pettenglll u Go. is one of the most colossal
business institutions in the country, and its
central Office at 81 Park row, New York city,
opposite the City Hall Park and the new Post
office building, is an establishment stranger
ought to visit if he really desires to see all the
lions when he visits Great Gotham. Mr..
Pettengill, the head of the firm was trained TO
his business under the "master of the trade"
is practical printer and publisher, is a man
OF high moral character, of marked business
talent, and possesses the strictest honor and
integrity. Hence in the quarter of century
and little more-that he has been in bust
ness he has built up the largest business of
the kind in the country or the world. He be-
gan business in Boston In 1S49; in 1852 he
went to New York to start second office, re-
tanning his interest in his Boston office, and
since that time he has remained in New York
In 1873 he started branch Office in Phila-
delphia, which is a most successful institution,
great advantage to business men, though
not by any means so large and important a
business house as the New York agency.
In all the time Mr. Pettengill has been in
business he has seldom or never had dis
pute with a customer or patron. Prompt in
his payment to publishers, fully posted as to
the needs of advertisers, possessing the con-
fidence of all the publishers in the country,
and of nearly all the business men who adj
vertise, giving his business his constant per-
sonal attention, it is no wonder the firm of s..
NJ. Pettengill a. Co. stand at the head of their
business. And advertisers who would make
the most of their money, who would be sue
cessful and prudent in their advertising, can
not do better than patronize the firm.
MEDICAL ADvERTIsING.-The medical
profession are outspoken in their denun-
citation of the system of medical adver-
Using, and declare that any medicine
that is advertised is fraud. How thor
oughly inconsistent and unfair is such an
argument. The men who are so loud in
their criticisms are those who ddoertiSe
themselves as medical sdUanS by ostenta-
tious display; splendid residences with
massive or-plates; fast horses and
costly carriages. DR.. j. WALKER, of
California, an old practitioner, respected
alike for his skill and conscientious indie
pendence, dares to differ; and having
discovered in his VINEGAR BITTERs - a
purely herbalistic medicine, free from
all spirituous poisons-a wonderful spe-
cific for numerous disorders, advertises
the same for the relief of his fellow-man,
and is borne out in his declarations of
its many virtues by thousands of invalids
who are being cured OF disease by its
use. ~

THE HOUSE,
HOW THE ARMY is USED.

HOW THE ARMY Is USED.
On the subject of the clause limiting
tue strength of the army to twenty five
thousand, Mr.. Eldridge remarked that
there were eighteen hundred now en-
gagged in organizing the Legislature in
New Orleans.
Mr.. WHEELER-l believe that with
twenty-five thousand troops. the gov
ernment can keep even Louisiana in
order.
cox ON LOUISIANA,
Mr.. COX remarked that while the
House was hlibustering, the soldiers of
the United Stares were throttling the
sovereign State of Louisiana, and Con-
gress was quite Indifferent to it. I cheers
from some of the Republican members. J
If they did not want to see another civil
war, they should call offthe Federal bay
onetts from Louisiana. The Civil Rights
bill if passed would only make trouble
worse and, for one he would not help
the Judiciary Committee which had fall
ed to report on the Louisiana question
Let that committee settle that question
properly and give peace to the South,
and then the civil rights of the people in
the North and South would be better ta-
ken care of.
Mr.. BUTLER-I do not propose to
make any attack or defense in regard to
the affairs in Louisiana simply on lying
kilograms of the Associated Press, or on
any report of our Committee, and when
that comes in | will stay here day and
night until peace is given to Louisiana. |
give it peace once and should be glad
to do is once more,
Mr.. COX-Why didnot the gentleman
do it then SO as to make peace perma-
nent? If he did well then he has un-
done it all ever since.
Mr.. BUTLER said he did not justify
the expulsion from legislative halls of
men who we're duly elected, but he did
Justify the throwing out of intruders vot
ing themselves into the Legislature to
make laws for the people who would not
elect them. A Republican form Of Gov
ernment could not be guaranteed if in
truders were allowed into the legislative
halls.
Pending discussions the House ad-
journed.

one day with the assistance of an officer
and hired help, moved the office of the

NOTICE is hereby given to oungsters
and parents that the ordinance to pre-
vent the running of sleds on the side
walks, and skating on the sidewalks
will be fully respected. Much complaint
is always made when little boy or girl
is arrested, but no excuse can palliate
these ofienses, as they are known to be
breaches of city ordinance. Officers
are strictly required in performing their
duties, to arrest all offenders against the
law, whether they be young or old.
This timely notice is given, and it is
hoped will prove effective.
