About the Use of salt
ance

Without giving any recipes for making
soap, wish TO tell all the hard worked far
mers' wives how much labor they may save
by not using such vast quantities OF this ar
'ucle. For nearly five years | have used soap
only for washing clothes. In all that time |
have not used one pound Ot soap Tor washing
dishes and other kitchen purposes. MY lam
lily has ranged from three to twenty-five l
have used cIstern water, limestone wafer as
hard as possible ard hard water composed OF
other ingredients besides lime, ana nnd
with all these my plan works eqlaliy wei;
II is this: Have your water qui'e NOT anu
add a very little milk to i. This soi'ens the
water, gives the dishes fine gloss anu pre-
serves the hands: it removes the grease, even
that from beef and yet no grease Is ever
found floating on the water, as when soap Is
used The stone vessels | always set on the
stove with little water in them; thus they
are hot when | am ready to wash them ana
the grease is easily removed.
just try my plan, you who toll day after
DAY every spring TO make that barrel OF soap,
and let US hear how it succeeds with you. |
like the great barrel Of soap on washing day,
but am glad To be able to dispense with lis
aid on all other occasions. | find that my
tinware keeps bright longer when cleansed in
this way than by using soap or by securing.
The habit so many of US have acquired OF
securing tins is wasteful policy: the pres
ent styles of tInware will not bear It. The
tin is soon scrubbed away and vessel that
is fit for nothing left on our hands, but, II
washed in the way have described, the tin
is preserved and is always bright and clean.

FARM AND GARDEN.


We have known excellent butter-makcrs
wash their butter thoroughly, and we have
seen others who were accustomed to make
butter Of prime article refrain from wash
ing it. The keeping qualities of butter de-
pend principally upon two things-frst, the
buttermilk must all be got out; and second,
the grain of the butter should be kept as per
feet as possible. 1t Is an excellent practice,
as soon as the butter has fairly come, to stop
churning, then drain the buttermilk from the
churn through hair sieve into tub, after
first wetting the sieve in hot water and then
in cold and then the butter will not stick to
it. Let the butter remain IN the Churn AFTER
the buttermilk Is drained out, then wash 1t
by pouring the water upon it from sufficient
height and stream of sufficient size to force
its through the butter. Keep moving the
stream about upon the butter as 1t keeps ris'
ing upon the water. Pour in water enough
to dilute what little buttermilk there Is IN II
to that extent that it will not be necessary 10
change the water, and the result Will be that
you will have rinsed the buttermilk all out
of the butter without lnjuring or MASKING q
single grain. In working in the salt the
ladle, or worker, whatever it is, should never
be allowed to slip on the butter, but to go Oh
at the butter In pressing or rolling motion.
If allowed to slip on the butter 1t will make
it look shiny, destroying the grain and injur.
ing Its keeping qualities.
One ounce to pound is hardly enough of
pack to hold and then some Cummings, to
butter will work out more salt than other to
which will have to be added more before
packing.-N. Y Herald.

Special dispatches from over two hundred
points in the wheat growing regions of New
York, indicate that the crops of that state
will not be over half the average. III the
newspaper representations from other east
ern and middle states can be relied on, there
will be similar falling of in the wheatyleld
of all those states and in Illinois, Ohio and
| Indiana. In Kansas and Mssourl-nobedy
yet knows how large-perhapS nearly all the
crops of wheat and cOrn-is threatened with
destruction by grasshoppers 1t seems to be
safe enough to estimate that as the combined
result of the cold and backward spring all
over The country and the grasshoppers in the
west, the wheat crop of the United States
| this year will be at least one.quarter less than
last wear, when it was estimated at 100000
900 bushels, or in ether words, that there Will
be a falling Oft of 100000 bushels in the
aggregate product of the country. II this
should be the case, as now seems probable,
we shall not only have no surplus crop to
send abroad but there will be an unparalleled
scarcity of cereals for domestic consumption,
resulting, of course, in a gre at enhancement
of the price of wheat.
If therefore, as now seems probable, the
wheat crop of Iowa and Minnesota should
be good one, and ii it should escape, as

KEEPING POULTRY IN OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
farmers make it practice to keep their poul
try IN their orchards from early spring until
cold weather sets in; and they find that il
pays for so doing A picket tence should be
built around the orchard, high enough to
prevent their flying over, with suitable house
or shed IN one corner OF the yard to shelter
them at night. Thus situated, the poultry
will thrive and prosper, keeping themselves
in good condition, and the Increase OF eggs
will be greatly augmented and their useful,
ness enhanced, to their owners lat least, on
account of the myriads of insects and worms
they destroy, and which will more than re-
pay the cost and labor of building the fence.
By keeping them inclosed in this manner, a
large number of fowls may be retained in the
orchard, and the continual scratching which
is done by them will prove advantageous to
the soil and trees themselves.

is not the right Sort it will be best to get rid OF
her. Dairylng Is now the most profitable
business of the farm and where there are
cheese factories or creameries, the women OF
the household are relieved from much severe
labor. Calves should be kept growing from

learn to eat little cut hay with bran and
oatmeal or oatmeal mixed.

Tie report says that many are left with a

have their farms well-stocked and paid for,
