CALVES OR PICS FEET BLANC
MANGE.-Boil one set Of feet in four OF
five quarts OF water, without salt. When
reduced to II quart, strain add one
quart Of milk, using any flavor, that il
agreeable. Then boil the whole fifteen
minutes, and sweetcn, and pour into
molds.
DRmpING CAKE.-Mix well together
two pounds of -four, u pint of warm milk
and a tablespoonful of yeast let it rise
about half an hour, then add one-halt
pound of brown sugar, one-fOurth pound
OF currants and one-tourth pound of good,
fresh beef dripping beat the whole well
for nearly One-fourth Of an hour and
bake in n moderate hot oven.
SWEET PICKLEs.-Take one pint OF
salt, one gallon of water slice in one
peck green tomatoes; let them stand
over night take out and rinse well take
three pounds sugar, n gallon vinegar,
allspice, black pepper, cinnamon, of each
two tablesp0ontuls tie in a cloth, let it
boil slowly, stirring occasionally, until
done.
mice CREAM CAKE--One cup white
sugar, two-thirds of Il cup of cream, two
eggs, two cups sugar, II teaspoonful
cream.tartar, one-halt %teaspoonful soda.
This will make seven thin cakes, between
which spread the cream. For the cream
take one-halt pint of milk, put into a
basin of hot water on the stove, beat one
egg with white sugar enough to sweeten,
and add two t%easpOOnfuls corn-starch {;
stir this into the milk when hot, and
flavor with vanilla and cinnamon. When
cool put between the cakes,
To KEEP RIPE FRUIT Gather the
fruit perfectly dry and sound, and weigh,
with an equal quantity of white sugar,
which must be finely pounded. Brulse
the fruit very gently in mortar, not
sufficiently to force the juice to flow,
then put into wide.mouthed bottles,
strewing the sugar in among it Fill
the bottles entirely, leaving only space
for a coating of mutton suet, which will
~effectually exclude the air. Raspberries,
strawberries, gooseberries c%urrants, pre-
served this way, make delicious tarts or
cream in the winter.
CUCUMBER PICKLEs.--The small, leng
kind are the best for pickles and those but
half grown are nicer than the full-grown.
Let them be freshly gathered, pull off the
blossom, but do not rub them. Pour
over them a strong brine boiling hot,
cover closely, and let them stand all
night. In the morning drain on a sieve,
and dry them in a cloth. To each quart
OF best cider vinegar, put one-half ounce
Of whole black pepper, the same of ginger
and allspice, and one ounce of mustard
seed-.add onions if agreeable. When
this picked vinegar boils up, throw in
the cucumbers and make them boil as
quickly as possible tor three or four
minutes--no longer. Put them in a jar
with the boiling vinegar and cover closely.
Made in this way your pickles will be ten
der, crisp, and green. If the color is
not quite clear enough, boil the vinegar
over the next day, then pour it over the
cucumbers and cover perfectly tight.

In the common course of things the
grating ofan apple upon any other stock
will change in no very perceptible degree
any Of the principal characteristics of
the fruit grated, and yet w have in
mind many instances of grating the
Baldwin into Il mature tree OF the variety
known AZ "Holten Sweet" which is an
exceedingly rich, sweet apple, and also
into another stock where natural fruit
characteristics was a poor, sour apple.
The result was that, when coming to
bearing, the fruit from the two trees
would scarcely be recognized az being
the same variety Of fruit, either in form,
color or external quality; for while the
former was an excellent, mild acid OF
unusual richness, the latter was a hard,
harsh acid that was not agreeable TO the
Taste. If the stock into which these
scions were introduced had no influence
upon their growth and productions, we
would like be informed why the diver
-ity in the character Of the fruit pro-
duced. Another case Of a different
nature: We had n strong, healthy tree
of natural fruit that would not mature
its fruit fully before it commenced to
decay, which would be upon the tree.
This was grated to Baldwins and al
though the branches grew vigorously,
and produced in due time an abundance
of fruit it would commence to decay
upon the trees before maturity, precisely
Az the original fruit had done. If there
was no influence of the original stock
upon the growth and productions of the
inserted ~scions, why was this fruit 30
afFected2
Other cases of a similar character
could be mentioned Of variation in the
russell apple occasioned by being grated
upon sweet or sour stocks.
We have no doubt but that the eating
qualities Of apples may be considerably
modified by careful selection at the
time of grating,
If we wish to diminish the acidity of
any sour apple, we should graft into a
tree known to produce a sweet apple OF
good quality, and in so doing, should cx-
pect to secure the desired result and 80,
too, vice versa. 1t is certain that the
same variety Of apples appear very un'
like as to size, color, shape and manner
of growth, which we attribute to the
influence OF the stock upon which they
are grated. If it is not 80 why is it the
case that the same variety Of apple, from
the same nursery, appears differently
upon different stocks? We have a case at
hand. Two trees of Tallman Sweet were
set from the nursery of /. G. Yeomans,
Walworth, n. Y; one bears "A good sized
fruit, possessing the average qualities of
that apple, while the other, although it
possesses outward marks, is very hard in
flesh, which il also filled with black spots
that render il unfit for use.
We believe that perfection III fruit
culture will yet necessitate a practice
that requires a knowledge OF the natural
characteristics Of the stock upon which
scions arc inserted-.if such Il thing is
possible, which we..feeI confident it is to
a certain extent; and until such time,
10 long IA scions are inserted in seeding
stocks where fruit qualities are unknown,
we may expect variation in the same
varieties of apples.- WiHiam H.. KcOmanS,

SIttlnp.BulI n College Graduate.

The New York Worlds correspondent
at Fort Walsh, British Columbia, has
the following about Sitting Bull: IN
conversation, after dinner, with n OF
the police-ohicers the other day ne said
Sitting-Bull war a native Of Fort Garry,
and an alumnus Of st Johns College.
These statements Siting-Bull himself
afterwards confirmed. Several old ira
ders who have had a look at him declare
they remember him well as Charlie Ja'
cobs, a half. breed who attended the col
lege in its infancy, thirty years ago, Inns
young Jacobs was an Objibway, and WA
a remarkably intelligent lad, with ambi'
ton to become a " Big %Injun." He dig
appeared from Fort Garry about 1858.
When asked by a police-olicer if he rec.
collected any thing about Fort Garry
Sitting,Bull laughed heartily, and sald
he knew the principle people there
among others Donald A. Smith, a Hud.
son Bay factor; James Sutherland, and
Father Vary,now Missionary at the Sault,
He WA also well acquainted with the
late James Ross, chief:justice of the
Riel-Lepine government in l869.,Io'
Indeed, he says they were boys together
Boss was a half-breed who, after gradua'
ting at st. Johns College, went tC
Toronto university, where he was gold
medalist. Sitting Bull says his father,
Henry Jacobs, was at one time employed
AZ an interpreter by Father Prouix or
Man;tonl;n leland hut whathpr the ole
gentleman is dead or not he does moi
know. Sitting-Bull is thoroughly famil
lar with French and English and severa'
Indian languages. lie is about forty
two or forty three years of age, a medium
sized, athletic-built man, of no distin,
guished traits beyond those always found
in a half.breed. He is an excellent con
v%ersationalist, and will talk on every
subject but his plans for the future.

sessed by all who have gardens of their
own. Even those living Il thousand
miles away may easily obtain them in
safety through the mails as many OF my
correspondents inform me who, in times
past, have been accustomed to obtain a
supply, of plants. August or September
prove to be better than the later fall
months for making plantations, as the
largest sized berries are frequently OBJ
tanned from plants set out at that time.
