THE greatest man is he who chooses
right with the most invincible resolution /;
who resists the sorest temptation from
within and without who bears the heav-
lest burdens cheerfully; who is calmest in
storms, and most fearless under menaces

virtue, and on God, is most unfaltering,-

How MUCH PORK SHOULD A BUsHEL
OF CORN MAKE ?-Mr. Joseph Sullivan
says: II conclude that nine pounds of
pork from a bushel Of corn fed in the ear
raw, twelve pounds from a bushel of raw
meal, thirteen and a half from boiled corn,
and sixteen and q half from cooked meal
are no more than a moderate average to be
realized from d bushel of corr under ordi-
nary circumstances of weather with dry
and clean feeding pens" AS the results
of his experiments he adds: eff I have
proved anything it is that it is possible and
comparatively easy to get fifty per cent.
more from the corn than we now do for
all the millions of bushels fed to hogs in
this country" All leaks of this kind
should be stopped at once on every farm.

SEE no advantage in apiety which per :

how society is to be benefited by a religion

Poetry.

Fsetrg.
WE LOVE BUT FEW.
Oh, yes, we mean all kind words that we say,
To old friends and to new;
Yet doth this truth grow clearer day by day:
We LOVE but few.
We love! We love! What easy words to say,
And sweet to hear,
When sunrise splendor brightens all the way,
And, far and near,
Are breath of flowers and caroling of birds,
And bells that chime;
Our hearts are light; we do not weigh our words
At morning time!
But when the matin music all is hushed,
And life's great load
Doth weigh us down, and thick with dust
Doth grow the road,
Then do we say less often that We love.
The words have grown!
With pleading eyes we look to Christ above,
And clasp our own.
Their lives are bound to ours by mighty bands,
No mortal strait,
Not Death himself, with his prevailing hands,
Can separate.
The world is wide and many names are dear,
And friendships true;
Yet do these words read palmer, year by year
We love but few.

FARM AND PRESIDE.

How TO KEEP CIDER.-A correspon-
dent Of the American Farmers; Club de-
sired to learn how to preserve cider du-
ring the winter, without boiling it down.
A member from New Jersey replied that
cider made Of late fall apples, and filtered
through two inches Of clean sand, with
ground mustard in proportions Of three
desert s%poonsful Of mustard to half a barrel
Of cider, will keep nicely without further
preparation.
Mr.. Bruin, n. j., said "Make the cider
from apples that contain a goodly supply
of saccharine matter; draw it off three
times to insure it's being free from pulp,
etc. either bottle OF keg it /; and it will
remain sweet all winter"
A recipe for making cider vinegar fol-
lowed this was furnished by a lady men,
Der, who said that cider, designed for vim
egar, unlike that intended for wine, should
be made as early in the season as possible !;
put it in a barrel and let it stand where
the sun will reach it a part of the day.
Insert the neck end of the bottle in the
%bunghole, So that air can get in without
flies taking the same liberty. Place in each
barrel of cider a pint Of molasses, a half
pint of good yeast, the same quantity of
white beans and one sheet Of fColscap or
brown paper in two months time good
vinegar will be the result.

CHEESE FRITTERs.-Beat four eggs very
light, season with salt, mustard and pep
per. Slice thin half a dozen large sour APP
pies, and half as many thin slices of good
cheese as you have slices of apples. Put
the cheese to soak in the mixture of eggs
and seasoning, let it stand a few moments
then put each slice of cheese between two
slices of apple, dip the whole into the
beaten egg, then fry in hot butter, like
oysters, and serve hot.

KEEPING POTATOEs.-Potatoes that are
already dug should be secured in pits or
cellars at once, before sharp frosts occur.
If pitted, do not neglect to amply venti-
late the pits. A one inch drain tile, placed
chimney-like In the top of the pit for every
six feet in length, will be sufficient; in
stead of the tiles, wisps Of straight wheat
straw, four or five inches thick, may be
used. Any potatoes still in the ground
should be dug, and secured without delay.
What are intended for sale are best sold
from the field; it rarely ever pays to store
remember that potatoes, when boiled, are
worth at least twenty-five cents a bushel
for feed.

BRINE THAT WILL PREsRvE BUTTER A
YEAR.-Among the many devices for
keeping butter in q manner that will
preserve the fresh rosy flavor of the new,
with all its sweetness, is the following,
FROM the Duchess Farmer, which is
said to be entirely seccessful: To three
gallons Of brine strong enough to bear
an egg, add a quarter of pound of
nice white sugar, and one tablespoon
full of saltpetre. Boil the brine, and
when it is cold strain carefully, make
your butter in rolls, and wrap each sep
arately in a clean, white muslin cloth,
tying it up with a string. Pack large
jar full, weight the butter down, and
pour over it the brine until all is SUBJ
merged. This will keep really good
butter perfectly sweet and fresh for q
whole year. Be careful not to put
on ice butter that you wish to keep for
any length Of time. In summer, whom
the heat will admit of small jars, take
large ones, and, using the same brine,
allow it to cover the butter to the depth
of at least four inches. This excludes
the air, and answers as well as the first
method suggested.

To DREss Raw ToMAroEs.-Few per-
SONS take the little trouble it requires
to make this common dish palatable.
In@the first place, carefully remove the
peehngs, either with knife if without
TINA to allow them to perfectly cool
before being used, or after scalding
the fruit: Only perfectly r aR toma,
sprinkle generously with salt, more
lightly with black pepper, and to a
dish holding one quart, add table
spoon Of sugar to give piquant zest
to the whole. Lastly add gill of
best cider vinegar; although, if you
would have . dish yet better suited to
an epiodrean palate, add a teaspoonful
of made mustard and two tablespoon
fuls Of rich sweet cream.

HER SWEETHEART. - The Jackson
Tenn. Sun vouches for the truth of the
following: During the war there lived
in the vicinity of this city solitary
maiden of sixty Summers, who had no
one to protect her against therude buf-
fets of the world. Ifany flower of effec-
ton had ever warmed and beautified
her maiden heart, it bloomed in secret
and wasted its sweetness on the desert
xir. At that time which "tried men 9
souls" she continued to live alone, un-
terrified by the evils of civil war.
One day, while this city was occupied
by federal troops, soldier went into
her potato patch and commenced help
ing himself to the potatoes.
She soon discovered his presence,
and, rushing out, she screamed in u
high, shrill key:
'Get out of my potato patch, you
vagabondp'
Soldier-"I shan't do it; your sons
are in the army fighting against us
now, and I am going to have all the
potatoes I want"
Maid-"You're q liar" ~
! Soldier-"Well, if your sons amt
your husband is, and I'm going to
have these potatoes. =" #4t
Maid" You're a liar, sir; I've got
no husband,
Soldier" Well. if your husband
amt your sweetheart is.
Maid" Well, I declare (softening)
who told you I had a sweetheart"
Soldier Never mind"
Maid" Well, reckon you can have
q few potatoes, but don't take ,nore'n
you want for your own use"

Sc There is Int one cure for corns
and that is: Take q lemon and roll it

bind it on the corn on retiring at night.
In the morning, if the corn is white

your finger nails-never cut corn.
Sometimes several applications of the
lemon slices will be necessary, but the
corns are bound to succumb, and you

CURING BAD MEMoRY.-Your mem
DRY is bad, perhaps, but I can tell you
two secrets that will cure the worst
memory. One I mentioned above-to
read a subject when strongly interested.
The other is to not only to read but
think. When you have read a para
graph or page, stop, close the book
and try to remember the ideas on that
page and not only recall them vaguely
in your mind but put them into words
and speak them out. Faithfully follow
these two rules and you have the
golden keys of knowledge. Besides
inattentive reading there are other
things injurious to memory One is
the habit of skimming over newspa-
pers, all in a confused tumble, never
to be thought of again, thus dilligent-
~ cultivating a careless habit of read
ing hard to break. Another is the
habit of reading trashy novels. Moth
ing is SO fatal to reading with profit as
the habit of running through story af-
ter story and forgetting them as soon
as read. know gray haired woman,
q lifelong lover of books, who sadly
declares that her mind has been ruined
by such reading. ..s
