CUCUMBER PICKLES.

Every one knows how to maks these,
Of course; but here's space left on my
paper that must-be-flled. Pick and wash
the cucumbers when not more than three
days, growth; pack into key or jar in
close layers; over each layer place lay
or Of salt in which alum-a tablespoonful
t" each pint of salt-has been mixed do
not add any water, as the water drawn
from the curumbers will cover them.
When wanted, freshcn them and scald in
strong vinegar, speed to taste and toit
a tablespoonful cf sugar to each pint Of
vinegar. Drain the pickles dry, and you
have the best Of pickles.
Doubtless, some will consider my pickles
rather expensive on account Of waste of
vinegar and use Of sugar; but the vinegar
which is poured On the pickle will i'm
bibe too much OF the salt to be agreeable
to the taste, and will sooner or later lose
its strength, while the fresh vinegar pour.
ed over the pickles already sour, has
nothing to do but keep the pickles from
losing any of it's strength, while the adj
dition Of sugar keeps the vinegar in
full strength all the time; and as there is
enough wastage in every family arising
from soured fruit or from the rinSlngs Of
preserve dishes, jelly glasses and other
sweet and our viands to keep ,up good
supply or good vinegar all the time, the
expense thus increased is very small.

Spontaneous COMB UsT1oN:

4 Who would believe that corn meal
bags, tied in bundles, laid in wagon, be.
ing wet in shower, and afterwards laid
up in garnet. would, in day or two
afterwards, be found on fire? Yet such
a case occurred in the store of Mr.. Bar
ker, merchant in Cocksacksle.
4 drop of linseed oil fell on a paper of
lampblack in the carriage factory Of
Messrs. Eaton & Gilbert, Troy, N. Y,
and caused the la1npbIack to ignite to the
great danger Of burning one OF the great
est carriage factories in the United
States.
a roll Of oilcloth accidentally wet in a
shower, took fire spontaneously while in
a wagon on its way from store in Vir.
glnia, to plantation in the country.
Hay, pressed in bales too soon after
hay harvest, is sure to take fire, as hap.
lened some time since in the barn of Gen.
Tully, Saybrook, Conn.,
Bags Of roasted bran, after having been
applied to lame horses, and then thrown
aside, have been repeatedly the cause of
setting fire to stables.
A Darrell of oatmeal left in basement
on stone floor during rainy season,
i'll Scotland. during the absence Of fam
lily at watering place, burned up, lcav-
Ing nothing but the iron hoops, and a
few pieces Of charcoal.
1t Is never safe to leave cold wood
ashes in barrels or wooden boxes, Long
afterwards, if disturbed so as to present
fresh surface to slightly damp at.
mosphere. they ignite. and set fire to
anything com bustib'e they can reach.
A cold mixture Of sulphuric and nitric
acids, with little kerosene or spirits of
turpentine. will start a fame in half q
minute. Should not farmers understand
something Of. the laws of chemistry as a
safeguard against accidents?
Wood or { fabrics sat rated with :,
strong solution of tung$tate Of soda, or a
saturated solution Of borax in boiling
water, and dried, can never be made to
burn with fame.
