FARM AND FIREsIDE.



A lady writes the American Farm
Journal: As the making of floor mats
and rugs has become so fashionable OF
late, I would like to tell my way OF
making a rug. In the first place, cut
and sew my rags the same as I would for
rag carpets, each color by itself, then
with q large hook l knit the diamond
about one-third Of a yard long OF each
separate color, beginning with one stitch,
and making one every time across until
the center Is reached; then narrow one
stitch every time across until but one
remains; draw the rag firmly through
this and 1t will need no other fastening !:
knit two rows of black around the entire
outer edge Of each diamond, and then
sew them together by placing the points
together, and with a large needle and
strong thread take up the outside stitch
upon each diamond every stitch that you
SOW with the needle, 10 fill the space be
tween the outside points of the diamonds
finish the whole by knitting three row
Of black around the entire edge of III,
rug. OF course each individual can us
her own taste in disposing of the differ
ent colors through the rug.

Very rich mince-meat: Procure a
fresh bcefs tongue. rub il over with salt,
brown sugar and powdered cloves let
lay three days, then wash and boil slow
ly two hours; skim il and mince very
fine, or take four pounds of the round OF
beef-reject all fst-boil slowly in a
small quantity Of water until tender, and
mince when cold; shred and mince one
pound Of bcef-suet, stone four pounds of
the richest raisins, two pothds currants,
one pound citron cut very fine, the grated
yellow rind Of two lemons and two
oranges and their juice, two tables, oonfuls
Of powdered cinnamon; four grated nut.
megs, one tablespoonful cloves one table.
spoonful mace, and one tablespoonful gin
ger, ten pounds graduated sugar, one
pound sweet almonds and one ounce Of
bitter ones; prepare as for cake and four
pounds OF very finely minced tart apples,
II you wish (apple is not put in the very
richest pies); mix all together and
moisten with quart of champagne
cider and pint Of brandy, or quart Of
MADEIRA wine instead Of cider, and bake
in sweet puff paste.
The Osceola times., 1877-03-24

Post for fences, gates or sheds, may be
made to last great deal longer by cut
ting aud thoroughly drying or seasoning
before planting them in the ground. AZ
the sap or moisture in the timber dries
out the wood shrinks and closes up the
pores, which prevents the absorption of
water afterward, and thus saves the post
from decay. 1t is said, and with consid.
cradle show OF reason, that a post set
with the top end in the ground will last
longer than If set in the usual way, with
the but end down. Here is the explana-
ton: The pores which run lengthways
Of the tree are like little valves, which
permit the flow Of moisture upward, but
never downward. Mulberry, cedar,
locust and post oak are good for posts,
and, ii well seasoned before being set in
the ground, viii last from ten to fifteen
years, and sometimes even twenty years,
1t Is said that posts painted with a com.
position Of boiled linseed oil and finely
pu!verized charcoal will last for an age,
and we do not doubt the preservative
qualities Of such paint. Posts and
planks, or rails, make a neat, durable
fance, which covers less ground than
other fences, and is probably cheaper in
Abe long run than almost any other, par.
Sicularly for yards and lots where cattle
run. This Is the time of the year when
such work is commonly done, and great
deal can be done between now and April
at edd times, when il is too wet to pillow.
Look well to gates, bars and fences.
