Lime Water for Burns.

A correspondent writes that the readiest and
most useful remedy for scalds and burns is

ward into a bathtub of boiling water, and
was nearly hayed from her neck to below her
hips Her agonles were indescribable; but
her clolhing being gently removed, and the
lime and oil preparation thickly spread over
the injured surface, she was sound asleep in
five minutes. Subsequently, the parts were
carefully washed witt, warm milk and water
three times day, the oil dressing renewed,
and the little patient rapidly recovered.
Though all the scalded skin came of, she did
not have scar. This remedy leaves no hard
coat to dry on the skin, but sOitens the parts,
and aids nature to repair the injury in the
rea6fest and NEST expeditions manner. This
mixture may be procured in the drug stores
but IF not thus accessible, shake lump OF
quick lime in water, and as soon rs the wa,
ter is clear, mix it with the oil and shake it
well. If the case is urgent use boiling wa.
ter over the lime, and it will become clear in
five minutes. The preparation may be kept
ready bottled in the house, and it will be rs

On this subject the Poultry Reoieto has the
pertinent and suggestive remarks Would
il not be wise to substitute more eggs for
meat IN our daily diet? About one-third of
the weight OF an egg is sohd nutrlment
This is more than can be said of meat. There
are no bones or tough pieces that have to be
laid aside. A good egg is made up of 10
parts shell, 50parts white. and 30 parts yolk.
The white of an egg contains So per cent.
water, the yolk of an egg SO per cent. The
average weight Of an egg is about two ounces.
Practically an egg is animal food, and yet
there Is Hone of the disagreeable work Of The
butcher necessary to obtain it. The vegeta-
rians OF England use eggs freely, and many
OF these men are eighty or ninety years old,
and have been remarkably free from illness.
Eggs are best when cooked four minutes.
This takes away the animal taste that is Of
fensive to some, but does not so harden the
white or yOlk as to make them hard to di.
gest. An egg, il cooked very hard, is Difficult,
of digestion. except by those of strong ston,.
achs such eggs should be eaten with bread
and masticatcd very finely. An egg spread
on toast is food fit los king, ifkings deserve
any better food than anybody else, which is
doubtful. Fried eggs are less wholesome
than boiled ones. An egg dropped into ho,
water is not only clean and handsome bu,
delicious morsel. Most people spoil the
taste of their eggs by adding pepper and salt
A little sweet butter is the best dressing
Eggs contain much phosphorus, which is sun
posed TO be useful to those who use their
brains much.

To obtain fruit from barren trees cores

To obtain fruit from barren trees CORES.
pendent of the Americon Agrtculturdltst
says: .t 90. .s' =
II wish to describe to you n method Of
making fruit trees bear that Numbered on.
Some fifteen years ago had a small apple
tree that leaned considerably. | drove a
stake by 1t, tied string to alimb and fasten-
ed it to the stake. The next year that limb
blOssOmed full, and not another blossom ap-
peared on the tree, and, as Tim Bunker said,
dit sot me thinking and came 70 the con-
clusIon that the string was 50 tight that il
prevented the sap returning to the roots; con-
sequentlv it formed fruit buds. Having a
couple Of apple trees that were large enough
to bear, but had never blossomed, | took a
coarse twine and wound il several times
around the tree above the lower limbs, and
tied il as tight as l could. The next spring
all the top above the cord blossomed as
white as sheet. and there was not one bios
som below where the cord was tied. A
neighbor seeing my tree loaded with pears,
tried it with the same result. | have
since tried the same experiment on several
trees, almost with the same result l think
it a much better way then cutting off the
roots. In early summer, say June or July,
wind strong Irvine several times around the
tree, or single limb, and tie IL, the tighter
the better, and you will be pleased with the
result; the next winter or spring the cord may
be taken off,"

American Tea.

Georgia is once more going to try her hand
at tea.growihg. Those who have investigat
ed the subject assure US that the obstacle &c
the culture of tea successfully in the South
ern States is the want Of experience bu,
chiefly of cheap labor. The tea tree of Chi
ma has been grown by several persons in
Georgia. from the Piedmont region to the sea
coast. This shrub is a hardy and vigorous
evergreen, and thrives as well with US AS II
does in China or Japan. Itgrows from three
to five feet high a neat, compact laurel.leav
ed shrub, with pretty white flowers in spring
and is quite ornamental. 1t is perfectly har
dy and will stand any exposure to the climate
and has been tested in Athens and many 9th
er localities in Georgia. We are told il
would be an easy matter for any family thai
has home ana a few feet of ground to pro
duce their own tea, and little to sell. Its
general introduction for home use would
most likely lead to its production fer the peo
pie to learn before they ere able to manufac
ture the article as we get it from China; bu

If it were generally known that rye is one
of the most valuable crops which can be pro
dnced in any country, it would find At least
a limited place upon nearly every farm III
the country. When'wc say crop we mean to
take it at every stage of its growth, and to
include every part OF it, fronA the tiny roots
TO the straw that goes into the thatch upon
The roof
1t must We planted when there is but little
other work to do, and at a time when, In the
preparation Of the ground, all growing weeds
are destroyed before their seeds mature The
rapid and vigorous growth of the rye does
not leave place to be occupied by the little
weeds, which are ready at all times to spring
up and choke out most other crops. When
sown early in September, and followed with
enough ram to give it Il start, rye will pro-
duce large amount Of fall pasture for stock.
Cows love it and double the profits of the
dairy when transferred from the bare pas
lures Of autumn to feast upon its rich YER
dure Young stock grow rapidly upon it, and

than those with sides less extended with full
ness of flesh to carry them through the pinch
ing times of dry food
If managed in this way and turned under
as green crop for corn in the spring, rye is
q wonderful fertilizer. It's fine tibrous roots
permeate the ground in every direction, and
draws down through tbs blades ferilzng
qualities from the atmosphere, combining
such qualities in the soil as to bring immc,
diate results in large crops. II protects and
thoroughly disintegrates the soil, and If plow-
ed and put to corn late IN May it will afford
considerable pasture early in spring when it
is the most needed.
If desired TO produce crop, the fall pas
turage if not too severe, does not ordinarily
hurt it, The straw, long and straight, is cX.
cellent for thatching roofs, or if cut before
too ripe makes good food for stock.
For hogs, if the grain is ground and fed IN
small quantities to supplement corn, is ex.
cellent. For sure crop without much labor
nothing surpasses it. When it fails this is
known in time to substitute another in lis
place with the probability that enough more
will be secured from the second planting,
from the better condition of the ground, than
to pay for all the labor incurred. Will the
farmers who do not recognize the rotation of
crops, clover and the grasses, but continue to
run hard the resources of the soil in the pro
ducton of the grains, try crop OF rye for
the uses indicated above and report results

FARM AND GARDEN.
RenOvating Waste Land.

Farmers cannot afford to pay taxes on wOatsi

thousands are Of acres of high.priced land al

ments, leaving the increased value of the land
certainly not less than 800 an acre as the re.
ward Of his skill in husbandry. The fields
want to be cleared of rocks, The s%ales need

angles; old wallis want removing and the
fields charging 10 Zen or twenty acres; the
whole surface Needs to be thoroughly worked

crops, ny tts thorough method horse labor
may be substituted tor that of man, so as to
save full one half of the present expense OF
raising and harvesting the crops. In smooth
land nearly all the planting and hoeing can
be done by horse; and the moving, reap.

same method The man who will lay his
plans wisely to improve his soil, making
this the chef object, and who will judicious-
ly expend his capital in the Improvements
we have indicated, rs in a fair way to. gam
a competence. This kind of farming. in the
long run, will pay amply and we believe
more surely than any other business. The
skinning process, which is reckless of the
soil and looks only to the crops, is bad poll
cy both for the farm and its owner. Let it
be abandoned, as the practice tends to render
good land poor and poorer, farmers still more
