DAILY GROOMING. - The regular,
thorough daily grooming and such
housing as is necessary to prevent I'M
due exposure to cold or to drafts, are as
important with farm teams as with
those kept for fast driving. The amount
of food consumed will be less, and the
ability to perform work will be greater
if the animals are every day thoroughly
we'll curried and brushed. The horses
legs and pasterns in particular, and the
setting on of the name, should be eff
GENTLY cleaned and rubbed, and he
should be kept in all respects in a
cleanly, tidy, cheerful and healthy con
dition.
1t has also become well demonstrated
In the care Of all live stock that a clean
and open condition of the skin is con-
duclve to health and economical feed
ing, and it will be found that no labor
on a farm is more profitably expended
than that which is devoted daily to
the grooming of even the very youngest
colt.

LONELINESS.

What constitutes true loneliness ?
Not the polished brow, the gaudy dress,
nor the show and parade of fashion
able life. A woman may have all the
outward marks of beauty, aud yet not
possess a lovely character. It is the
benevolent disposition, the kind acts,
and the Christian department. 1t is in
the heart, where meekness, truth, af-
lection, humility, are found, where we
look for loneliness; nor do we look in
vain. The woman who can soothe the
aching heart, smooth the wrinkledb brow,
alleviate the anguish of the mind, and
pour the balm of consolation in the
wounded breast, possesses, in nm emf
nent degree, true loneliness of charac-
ter.

SORE NOSE IN SHEEP.-Sheep are fire.
quently affected with a disease called
''sore nose," being scabbed so badly as
to interfere with eating. The remedy
is to mix spirits of turpentin9 with soft
lard or goose oil; half a pint of each,
stirred well together while cold. This
quantity is sufficient for one hundred
sheep. In some cases it may need to be
applied a second time. Rub it thor
oughly. Tar is sometimes employed,
but of itself is very hard and stiff in
cold weather.

LAMP SHADEs.-''As we have been
tried and annoyed beyond endurance
with paper shades for kerosene lamps
and with porcelain shades, which are
but little more satisfactory than paper,
we ordered a shade made of tin, in form
like the cOnical paper shades. A paper
shade has always cost from twenty-five
to thirty cents. a tin shade as large as
a paper shade, cost twenty-five cents.
But we soon learned that the inner side
Of the tin shade required a coat Of
white paint, as the reflection of the
bright tin gave an unsatisfactory light.
As the light fell on the printed page
when one was reading, the surface
would be so clouded in places and so
bright In other spots that 1t was ex-
tremely difficult TO read. But a coat Of
white paint proved TO be a desired
remedy for the difficulty. The outside
Of the shade was covered with shellac
varnish. The shade of a lamp should
be entirely Opaque. Porcelain shades
and paper are more or less translucent,
as they will allow the light to pass
through them TO ones eyes. The eyes
should be kept from the direct rays Of
the light as far as may be practicable.
The light ought to shade on the object
to be seen, and not on the object and In
the eyes also. If the lamp can be en-
tirely surrounded by an Opaque shade,
except a small opening through which
the light can shine on the printed page,
the eyes would be required to make tar
less effort to see than if the shade were
translucent. Let it be borne in mind
that the eyes will see far better if no
light is allowed to shine in them or in
the face.

Spontaneous COmbuStiOn.-An impOr-
tant communication has been made to
the SOCietie lndustrielle, France, show
ing the result of some investigations
recently made concerning the spOnta-
neous combustion of oily %refnse, and
the relativeintiammability of the differ
ent oils at present employed for lubri-
eating purposes.
Experiments were thus made upon
fragments of cotton, linen, iute and
wooden waste saturated with oils of
different natures, the materials being
placed in a box of tin, having q double
bottom in which steam entered, so that
part which received the refuse could be
maintained at a temperature of one
hundred and eighty degrees, Fab, a
thermometer, inserted in the oily sub
stance, enabling the variations of tenn
perature occurring therein to be accu-
rately noted.
The results obtained are stated to
show, first, that any vegetable or ami
NAL oil inevitably takes fire after a few
hours under the above conditions. On
employing cotton waste, the mass
burns quickly and with flame, in cOn.
tact with the air. Wool refuse is slowly
transformed into a black c%arbonaceOus
mass. The additions of mineral oil
known as mineral %luhricating oil
serves to retard the spontaneous COM
bustion of vegetable or animal oil, if
mixed in small quantity; if a large
amount be added, Inflammation is en-
tirely prevented. The mineral oil used
in this cas- was q very dense product,
$500 having great viscOsity and emit
ting no intlammable vapOrs even in con-
tact with IN ignited body at any point
below 1888 degrees Fahrenheit-or, in
other words, remaining safe at tenn
peratures at which mixtures of less
dense mineral oils, or COLA oil, burn.
The addition of forty per cent. of min
eral oil is sufficient to prevent sponta-
neous combustion; while the addition
of twenty per cent. doubles the time
necessary to determine conditions ia
vorable to the same.

AGRICULTURAL.

BREEDING MAREs.-The best age of
mares for breeding is from six To twelve
years; but they often produce colts
when fifteen TO eighteen years. IL is a
doubtful policy 10 allow old, broken
down mares to breed, unless they pos
sess some remarkable good qualities,
because a valuable horse can be raised,
worth from 500 to $500, as cheaply as
n worth $50. In horses like produces
like too unerringly 10 spend much
money In raising poor animals. Broken
wind, spawn, %ringbone, founder, aud
blindness In the dam are transmissable
10 the colt. So, also, is the temper and
defects in her form. One of the best
English writer's on this subject says /:
Breed as much as possible with pure
blood of the right kind, and breed what
is technically called up, not down; that
is, by breeding the mare to a male Of
superior, not inferior blood to herself;
except where il is desired 10 breed like
TO like, for the purpose of perpetuating
II pure stream Of any particular variety
which is needful. A half.breed mare
should never be put TO a half. breed
stallion, as In that case the product in
nine cases out of ten degenerates below
the dam, whereas if she be bred TO a
thoroughbred stallion, the product
will be superior. Another error is to
breed from mares that have become
noted for their speed. Some persons
will pick up some long-legged, broken
down, trotting mare, which could per-
haps trOt her mile in $50 thinking TO
produce something very fine. Nothing
can be more i%ll-judged, as in the major
ity of instances it is sure TO end in dis
appointment. A mare, with all the
best blood in her veins, if she has not
got good shape and good points, is not
dit for a stallion"

MANURE FOR FRUITTREEs.-TheW West
eTn New York Horticultural Society
lately discussed the question of manure
for fruit trees. One member said that
he had used superphOsphate of lime
with good results. Another member
said that he had seen more benefit re-
sulting from superphosphate the second
year than the first, especially when the
first was a dry season. Another men,
Der preferred wood ashes. He once used
1900 bushels of leached ashes ON the
sandy soil of his orchard, with very
great advantage, applying it at the rate
of 300 bushels per acre. The quality as
well as size and yield of fruit was very
much improved. Another member con-
sidered barnyard manure as the most
profitable fertilizer for fruit trees, as it
furnishes all the elements required for
growth and fertility. Fruit growers
should therefore manufacture all the
manure they can, by keeping horses,
cattle, pigs, poultry, and gathering up
all the litter, &C., for the manure pile.
Some people are liable TO make mistakes
in using stimulating manures as fertili-
GERS for fruit crops.

The Pdpier ZeituRg remarks that it
would be an advantage if wall papers
could be had which would adapt them
selves to the degree of illumination of
the room in which they are hung, be-
coming darker with a greater bright
ness, and brighter as the darkness In-
creased. The proposal has been made
to coat the walls of rooms with Oxalate
of copper, which becomes dark in light
and bright again in darkness. BY com
bination with other cOlors wall papers
might be obtained which would pre-
sent an agreeable variation of colors.

G~oosEBERRY JAM.-Stalk and crop as
many as you require of ripe, red, rough
gOOseberries. Put them in the preserv-
ing pan, and, as they warm, stir and
bruise them to bring out the juice. Let
them boil for ten minutes, then add
sugarin the proportion of three. quarters
of a pound to every pound of fruit, and
place it on the fire again. Let it boil
slowly, and continue boiling for two
hours longer, stirring it all the time to
prevent its burning. When it thickens
and is jelly-like on a plate when cold,
it is done enough. Put it into pots, and
allow it to remain a day or two before
it is covered.
