CHICAGO, March al feel as If the subject OF
"Alracles u had been pretty fully discussed Of
late. But as the letter Of DR.. Mitchell of the
21st ult. plainly indicates, he has not been a
little perplexed to extrcate himself from the
dilemma in which he had placed himself, by Civ
ing publicity to foolish woman's statement Of
what she claimed to be miracle, or the same
thing-a Divine inteTposftfon OF sudden transf-
ton from an incurable disease of long standing
to perfect health. Let me- comfort the good
brother With this consolation {as misery likes
company that he is no. the only one who as
slight set on hi1l,'' has made such
grieyous mistakes. Haye you read the

not, will give vou the benefit Of a few extracts
from it. On page DDS youwill find condensed

Of the Rev. Moses Sherman, who, in August,
1873, was In the third year Of his pastorate in
the Methodist Episcopal Church Of Piermont,
n. H. Mrs. S., when girl, twicc fell and badly
injured her left knee, SO that it becnme partly
stiff, and was pronounced incurahle By the ply
sician. Subsequently she strained herself so as
to bring ON serious female diseases. Twice she
fell down stairs or staircase, striking her
backbone, nearly paralyzing the spinal cord,
and causing serious and permanent spinal dis
ease. In September, 1872. she took to her bed,
where she lay helpless, except when lifted from
it, till Aug. q, 1873. She could not walk
a step or stand, norcould she we'll sit up short
time without great distress. Medical skill
proved uuarailing; during the last two or three
weeks it required two persons to move her. She
had come to think that her lot was to be bed
ridden, suffering invalid. At that date Just
named, she was lett alone in her room for the
night Mrs. Robinson also was alonel, and lay
awake revolving various sore trials, and was led
to commit them by faith to Jesus, and fee! per-
feet rest of soul. She made q reviewed con-
seeration Of her all to God, when delightful
consciousness Of acceptance came over her. She
then felt special presence Of Jesus, and what
some would call dream. and others vision,
came to her. What followed Is given In her own
words, abridged, which certainly record q
strange experience: oThcn I became
conscious Of movement Of the Presence, and
it seemed to be filling the room more and more
From the foot Of the bed the Presence whisper
ed, Believe thou that am able to do tnis!'
This was repeated many times, while lay there
and reasoned the matter all over. The power
to yield and believe Was gifen, and said.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Value of Roofs.


The value of roots as food for stock Is too
well known to need comment. About TWEEN
ty tons of turnips can be raised to the acre,
and every ton of hay on the farm finds its
equivalent in about three and half tons of
turnips. You raise, therefore, what is about
equal in nutrtiye value to six tons of good
hay per acre when you raise good crop of
turnips. 1t is not difficult to get eighteen
tons of carrots to the acre on good, land, and
every three tons of carrots are equal in nu.
tritive value to ton of good English hay.
Now some one will say 'sBut the labor of
raising an acre of carrots or turnips is much
greater than that OF raising an acre of hay."
This is true, to some extent, but as an offset
to it we should remember that the turnips
are at the same time preparing the ground for
large crop OF grass or other crops in sue
ceeding years. In other words, 1t is profit.
able and valuable fallow crop in rotation.
while its benefcent effect on the health of
the animal is sufficient to lead to its extended
culture aud use, If there was no other consid-
GRAFTON In its favor.
Turnips, as well as other food, may be
steamed before being fed out to mich COWS
in winter, to very great advantage; and II
there is not stock enough to justify the ex-
pense of an apparatus for the purpose a
small pipe may be inserted in the kettle over
the Kitchen fire, and conduct the steam
into box filed with chopped rurnips, cut
hay and other substances. The whole con-
trivance will often pay well in the additional
amount of nutritious, fattening and milk-pro-
ducing properties of the food. 1t need not be
stated that the apparatus should be sufici-
emily tight to produce pressure of steam
somewhat above that of the atmosphere.

Co0kek Meat fer Poultry,

Cook the meat you give your poultry al.
ways. Chop 1t finely, using a common
household chopping knife, If you have but a
small quantity of meat to prepare; but if you
are keeping poultry on large scale. substi.
tute for the bowl a tight wooden box of a
bushel capacity, and for the chopping instru.
ment, using common short-handIed spade
with its blade ground to a keen edge. Salt
the meat as you would for your own eating.
Mix it half and hell, when fed out, with
scalded wheat or CT corn meal, and it will
serve your purpose much better than if fed
In any other way. The mode too often
adopted is to throw raw meat to fowls. This
is bad way, and in summer season causes
illness frequently. Cooked meat goes fur
Their, is more nourishing and less injurious II
over fed than in the raw state. For young
fowls very little is needed at a time; and
either old or young birds when kept in con-
finement should not be stuffed with this kind
of allowance. A large share of their food
should be grains and cooked vegetables. For
growing fowls at any age this is the best sta
pie food, when properly varied.-P oultry
