A Bee Sting.-The sting of bee is
naturally more violent than that of a
wasp, and with some persons is attended
with fatal effects. The sting of bee is
barbed at the end like a fish-hOOk, and
consequently is always left I'm the
wound; that of a wasp is pointed, so
that it can sting more than once, but a
bee cannot. When person stung by
a bee, let the sting be instantly pulled
out, for the longer it remains in the
flesh the deeper it will pierce, and the
more poisonous it will become. The
sting is hollow, and the poison flows
through it, which is the cause of the
pain and Inflammation. The extracting
of the sting requires 4 steady hand, for
if it breaks in the wound the pain will
continue for a long time. When the
sting is extracted, suck the puncture,
and thus prevent Inflammation. Spirits
of hartshOrn, if applied to the affected
part, will more fully complete the cnre.
The poison is acid, and the alkali will
neutralize it. If the hartshorn is not at
hand, saleratus can be wet and laid upon
the place; and soft soap will often ease
the acute pain.
On some people the sting of bees and
wasps have little effect, but it greatly
depends upon the state of the blood
whether it will prove injurious, and
these simple remedies, if applied at
once. will soon effect cure.

Grinding tools calls for the exercise of
great judgment in the determination of
the angle, and skill in handling SO as to
secure true edge. Workmen make a
mistake in grinding down to the edge.
This should never be done unless it is
nicked or otherwise rendered irregular.
as the grindstone leaves a rough edge
which must be cut away by the oil
stone. By grinding well down to the
edge, without reaching it, the iron is
given the required shape, and a very
little rubbing on the oil stone will pro-
duce a good Keen edge.

Feeding Frozen Frnt.-The principal
value of apples or pears as feed for stock
consists in the sugar or acid they may
contain. There is but little starch in
them, and they therefore do not require
cooking and may be fed raw as soon as
they are thawed out in cold weather.
Frozen APPLES will thaw out without in
jury if allowed to remain in the ground
in pit. But, at the best, apples are of
little service save as an appetizer, or an
aid TO digestion, except when they are
sweet; then the sugar may have some
fsttening influence. There is nothing
in them to help produce milk.

Mdtina Cdndries.-As some one wishes
to know some more about canaries,
will give them a little more Of my ex-
perience about them. To make the nest
a small basket or gourd is the best.
Sometimes line them neatly with
canton flannel, to keep the eggs from
getting broken, and often 1 just give
them the gourd without lining; give
them some soft grass and bits Of paper.
They will build real nice nest, and not
tear it out. But mine have "knack'
of tearing up their nest, hence l line
them. For food l give them just the
same food when they are mating as at
any other time, consisting of bread
(corn bread, light bread, biscuit) lettuce,
cabbage leaves, clover, grass, potatoes,
apple, hemp and canary seed, hard
boiled egg, and in fact almost every
thing that we eat ourselves, except mes:
or something greasy. Some folks do not
feed canaries scarcely anything but
seed, but We do, and sick bird is some
thing We never had, except when they
die of old age. Be sure and give them
plenty of food; when they hatch little
birds, especially hard boiled egg; give
them a cup of good, fresh water twice a
day. We never take the male bird from
the cage, neither when the hen is setting
nor after the young are Matched. When
the little birds are about two or three
weeks old, and the old ones want to
raise another brood, they will pick the
feathers off of the little ones; then,
whichever is the worst to pick the little
ones, / remove to another cage. Some
times have to take both out, but / put
one of them back to feed the young
birds at noon, and again late in the
evening, and let it remain in the cage
until the birds are fed the next morning.
Perhaps you will think that trouble.
Well, it is; but everything We have is
some trouble. CATER the young are
Matched, can they be moved with safety
during this periOd?" do not under
stand just what that question means,
but would not, nor do not, move my
little birds from one cage to another,
but leave them in the same cage until
they are full grown; but l keep the
cage hanging in the same place while
the birds is setting and after the young
are Matched until they are almost grown,
only when l take the cage down to feed
them. 'Tis well to give the cage a good
before allowing the birds to
raise the second brood, but be careful in
the young birds when changing
from one cage to another, as they are
very tender.

What is A Good CO,c.-The Mirror and
Farmer says: Every farmer ought to
know just what good cow is, that is
how much cow ought to yield in order
to save her from the butcher. In the
large dairies in Vermont they call a COW
that will make three fifty pound tubs of
butter year an average COW, and one
that will make four tubs a good one. A
single COW on good feed ought to do
better than this even. One OF the EN-
ployes Of the Mirror has a native COW
which, during the twelve months end
ing April lst, supplied family of five
with milk butter and cream, and sur
plus enough to amount to $3.50, the
milk being sold at five cents per quart
and the butter at thirty and thirty-four
cents per pound. This COW will give on
good feed, twenty quarts of strained
milk per day. When dried March 10th,
she was giving four quarts per day, her
feed being hay and two quarts of cob
meal. She dropped her calf April 1st,
1873, and another March 30th, 1874. For
such a cow a man had better give $50
than to take the gift of a poor one. Our
own idea is that a cow from which two
hundred pounds of butter cannot be
made in year should not be tolerated
around any mans barn.
