Rat-Proof Granaries.

WE want to tell our readers how to
build rat-and-mouse proof granary, and
then if they don't adopt it and the rats
get into their grain-bins our skirts are
clean. We suppose it to be constructed
in one corner of the barn as usual
The lumber to be used for the floor be-
low and above and the ceiling for the
sides must be hemlock one and one
fourth inches thick, seasoned thoroughly,
planed and matched. The joists Cor the
lower floor are two by ten inches and of
any durable wood. They must be placed
foot apart and be made exactly straight
The studding for the four sides should
be hemlock also, as it holds a nail well
and does not spring or twist as oak may
or is likely to.
Lay the floor and have it as true as
table and perfectly level Take four
pieces of two by four scantling, the
lengths of each side of the room, and
dress to an exact thickness
Make groove in the upper side near
the outer edge to receive the tongue of
the first board of the ceiling, the
ceiling to be put up tongue
down and nailed through both
edges just beneath tongue and grooves.
Miter the ends of these scantlings and
nail firmly to the floor. Chamfer the in
ner corner of these so that the grain will
not rest on them when the bin is cleaned
Now erect at each corner two pieces of
like scantling whose sides have been
squared and which have been firmly held
together, exactly perpendicular to the
scantling on the floor. Put up the rest of
the studding and cell up.
There is no necessity of mitering the
joints at the corners. If put up carefully
and the ceiling boards sawed true to the
square they will pinch a hair. Garry up
to the top of the joists above and lay the
upper floor on top of the joists Never
cell below these joints and then lay a
floor above unless you desire to harbor
yermin between them. Make the door
to slide and fit with precision and then
you may bid rats and mice do their best.
Ventilation may be given through the
door at bottom and top covered with
strong wire screen.-Interjor.

A FIrst-CIass Firm.

From the Grand Rapids (Mich.) Eagle.
The celebrated advertising agency of s. NJ
Pettengiil q Co. 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 sec all the
lions when he visits Great Gotham. Mr.. Pet
tengill, 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 a century
and a little more-that he has been in bust
ness he has built up the largest business of
the kind III the country or the world. He be-
gan business in Boston in 1S49; in 1852 he
went to New York to start a 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.. Petten gill has been in
business he has seldom or never had a dis
pute with customer or patron. Prompt in
his payment to publishers, fully posted as to
the needs of advertisers, possessing the con-
tidence of all the publishers in the country,
and of nearly all the business men who ad-
vertise, giving his business his constant per-
sOnal attention, it is no wonder the firm Of S.
NJ. Pettengill & 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 patronizing the firm.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS,

For QgINsY.-Take common raisins
and eat them slowly, letting the juice run
down the throat. 1t is sure cure, and
also a pleasant medicine.-Erchange.
To Stop BLEEDING.-It is said that the
bleeding from "a wound On man or beast
may be stopped by mixture OF wheat
flour and common salt, in equal parts,
bound on with cloth. If the bleeding
be profuse use large quantity, say from
one to three pints 1t may be left on for
hours, or even days, if necessary.
A Coon CAKE RECIPE.-Three cups of
sugar. one OF butter beat together, and
the yolks of seven eggs well beaten; add
one cup of sweet milk, tour and half
cups of flour, the whites of the seven
eggs beat to froth; two teaspoOnfuls
and half of yeast powder; flavor to
suit the taste. This makes nice large
cakes.
BREAKFAST DIsH-A very simple and
vet very delicious breakfast dish may
be made by stewing rich grapes until
quite tender in an equal quantity of
water, sweetening to the taste, and then
dipping halves of batter biscuit into the
hot fruit. Arrange these into a deep
dish, pour the remainder of the stewed
fruit over it. and let it stand until the
biscuit is perfectly tender. If you wish
to avoid the seeds run the stewed fruit
through colander before dropping in
the biscuit. Serve warm or cold.
RAISED DOUGHNUTs WITHOUT EGGs.-
One and one-half cups of flour, one-fourth
OF cup of home made yeast, and warm
milk enough to make a thin batter; let
it rise over night in warm place; in the
morning add one cup of sugar, one tea
spoonful of salt, nutmeg, and two-thirds
teaspoonful of soda To this add four
tablespoonfuls of melted lard, being
careful it is not hot mix middling soft
and cut round, or they will fry out of
shape; you can use the biscuIt-cutter to
cut them out ard the pepper-box cover
to cut out the hole in the center, al
though something a little larger would
be better; be sure and have your lard hot
and fry them fast. | never had any but
were very nice, and think this recipe
infallible Household.

The Toad.

THE american Garden, or its editor, at
least, has lingering fondness for the
toad, and this is the way he talks about
him: The toad-almost universally de-
spised and upbraided for his ugliness-is,
yet, useful, good natured, quiet fellow,
who recognizes his friends and those who
are kind to him. We have some half
dozen OF them in our small garden, and
among them one old patriarch who,
when we are digging or hoeing, will sit
winking and blinking at US with his
pretty eyes, and often compel us to lift
or drive him aside to get him out of
harms way. He will stay by us for
