Strong Oranges Wanted.

Master Smedley, Of the Iowa State
Grange, remarked at the late meeting of
that body that one serious difficulty met
with by Patrons in systematizing the
work of the subordinate Oranges is the
looseness and want of care in their early
organization, and in the mistaken judg-
ment frequently displayed by Deputies
in establishing Oranges in too close
proximity. Experience" says Brother
Smedley, "has demonstrated that it is

look for the most effectiveness, but that
strong, healthy Oranges, even though
fewer in numbers, are more likely to
strengthen the cause. I have aimed to
remedy this defect, by counseling as

possible to consolidate. In this effort

Sure Remedy for Bots.

The Department of Agriculture pub
fishes the following experiments which
gentleman from Georgia tried and
found effective in dispelling that serious
trouble in horses. About thirty years
ago friend lost by bots very fine horse.
He took from the stomach OF the dead
horse about gill of bots. and brought
them to my house to experiment upon.
He made preparations of every remedy
he had heard of, and put some of them
into each. Most had no effect, few
affected them slightly, but sage tea more
than anything else; that killed them in
fifteen hours. He concluded he would
kill them by putting them in nitric
acid, but it had no more effect on them
than water; the third day they were as
lively as when put in. A bunch Of tan
zy was growing by my Office. He took
handful of that, bruised it, added a
a little water, squeezed out the juice,
and put some in; they were dead in a
minute. Since then have had it given
to every horse 1 have had effected with
bots, and have never known it to fail in
giving entire relief. My friend had an
other horse affected with bots several
years later. He gave him the tanzy in
the morning and dose of salts in the
evening; the next morning he took up
from the excretions three half pints OF

How to Keep Meat Fresh q Long Time.

There is no good reason why farmers
and their families should eat so much
salt pork, leaving all the fresh meat to
the inhabitants of cities and villages.
when the following method will keep
meat fresh for weeks, even in the warm
est weather. ! know, for I have tried it
for over ten years: As soon as the ani-
NAL heat is out of the meat slice it up
ready for keeping. Prepare large jar
by scalding we'll with hot salt and water.
Mix salt and pulverized saltpeter in the
proportions of one tablespoonful of salt
peter to one teacupful of salt. Cover
the bottom of the jar with a sprinkle of
salt and pepper. Put down a layer of
meat. sprinkle with salt and pepper the
same as if just going to the table, and
continue in this manner till the jar is
full. Fold cloth or towel and wet it
in strong salt and water, in which lit
tie of the saltpeter is dissolved. Press
the cloth closely over the meat and set
in cool place. Be sure and press the
cloth on tightly as each layer is removed
and your meat will keep for months. 1t
is good plah to let the meat lie over
night after it is slcied before packing.
Then drain off all the blood that oozes
from it. 1t will be necessary to change
the cloth occasionally, or take it off and
wash it-frst in cold water-then scald
in salt and water as at first. In this
way farmers can have fresh meat the
whole year round. have kept beef
that was killed on the 18th of February
till the 2lst of June. Then packed
large jar of veal in the same way during
the dog days and it kept six weeks.

the various mixtures made for the pur-
Pose Of destroying parasitic insects. The
acid, in its pure form is no doubt, pois.

ommended by veterinarians are harmless
if made and used according to direc-

often do, try one-tenth or more of the

To REMOVE A TIGHT FINGER RING-
In case finger ring becomes too tight
to pass the joint of the finger, the finger
should FIRST be held in cold water to re-
duce any swelling or inflammation. Then
xrap rag soaked in hot water around
the ring to expand the ring, and lastly
soap the finger. A needle threaded
with strong silk can then be passed be-
tween Che ring and the finger, and per-
son holding the two ends and pulling
the silk, while sliding it around the
periphery of the ring. will readily re-
move the latter. Another method is to
pass q piece Of sewing silk under the
ring. and wind the thread in pretty
close spirsls sad closely around the
finger to the end-that below the ring

Price Of Dairy Products.

I have been somewhat interested in
the discussion upon the shrinkaSe in
values. and especially when applied to
farm products, and more especially to
the products of the dairy as they are
reckoned necessary for all classes, rich and
poor. Now there are as many grades OF
society as there are of butter and cheese.
The best qualities are sold to those who
can best afford to use them. That class
of consumers are increasing in this coun-
try faster than the supply of good but
ter and cheese, and they would be more
willing to pay still higher prices than to
eat poor butter. Good butter takes a
position among the luxuries, as do choice
fruits. I have seen persons 60 into a
fruit store and purchase = basket of fruit
say four quarts in all-made up of a
few pears, peaches, and some fine grapes
grown under glass and pay ten dollars
for it, and find no fault with the price.
That class will have good butter if it is
in the market, even at high price, if it
is really nice, because it is more palata.
BILE and more healthy. Good sweet but
ter is as good for consumptives as cod
liver oil, while it is much more pleasant
to take. 1t is very plain that taxing a
luxury does not very much decrease its
consumption. Now my advice to farm
ers is, if you can make first quality but
ter, send it to good market instead of
selling your milk at a reduced price.
There is no danger that the price of
prime butter will depreciate very much

Our fair readers may be interested to
learn where, for the most part, the flow
ers grow, the sweet perfumes of which
are found in those pretty facons on their
dressing-tables. The chief place of their
growth are the south of France and
Piedmont, viz: Montpelier, Grastee,
MINES, Cannes and Nice; these two last
especially are the paradise of violets,
and furnish yearly product of about
$4,000 pounds of violet blossoms. Nice
produces harvest of 100000 pounds of
orange blossoms and Cannes as much
again and of finer color; 500 pounds
of orange blossoms yield about two
pounds of pure Noroli oil. At Cannes
the acacia thrives well, and produces
yearly about 5000 pounds of acacia
blossoms. One great perfumery distil-
lery at Cannes uses yearly 100000
pounds of orange blossoms, 100000
pounds of rose leaves, $4,000 pounds of
jessamine blossoms, 10000 pounds of yio-
lets, and 5000 pounds of tuberoses, to-
gether with a great many other sweet
herbs. The extraction of the ethereal
oils, the small quantities of which are
mixed in the flowers with such large
quantities of other vegetable juices that
it requires about 600 pounds of rose
leaves to win one ounce of otto of roses,
demand very careful treatment. The
French favored by their climate are the
most active, although not always the
most careful preparers of perfume; half
the world is furnished by this branch of
their industry.

A STERLING OLD POEM.

Who shall judge man from his mannerr!
Who shall know him by his dress?
Paupcrs may be fit for princes.
Princes fit for something less.
Crumplsd shirt and dirty jacket
May beclothe the golden ore
OF the deepest thought and feelings
Satin vests esn do no more.
There are streams Of crystal necta1
Ever flowing out of stone;
There are purple beds and golden,
Hidden, crushed and overthrown.
God, who counts by soul, not dresses,
Loves and prospers you and me,
While he values thrones the highest
But as pebbles in the sea.
Man upraised above his fellows;
on forgets his fellows then;
Masters, rulers-lords, remember
That your meanest kinds are men:
Men, Of labor, men of feeling,
Men Of thoughts and men of fame,
Claiming equal rights to sunshine
InIaan's snoblipg name.
There are foam embroidered oceans,
There are little woOd-clad rills;
There are feeble inch-h:gh saplings,
There are ce,lars on the hills
God, who counts by souls, not stations,
Loves and prosrers you and me:
For to Him all vain distinctions
Are Us pebbles in the sea.
Toiling hands alone are builders
Ola nations wealth and fame;
Titled laziness is pensioned,
Fed and fattened on the sameS
By the sweat of Others fOreheads,
Living only to rejoice,
While the poor mans outraged freedom,
Vainly lifts its feeble voice.
Truth and justice are eternal,
Born with lOveliness and light;
Secret wrongs shall never prosper
While there is a sunny right.
God, whose worldwide voice is singing
Boundless love to you and me,
Links oppression with its titles
But as pebbles in the sea.
