BOILING BEETs.-With many house.
wives there is a great dread Of boiling
beetroot in case it should lose its color,
and minute directions are generally
given in all cookery books as to wash
ing the roots carefully so as to avoid all
abrasion of the skin. That beetroots
should be washed absolutely clean be-
fore being put into the pot is of course
very necessary; but the most simple
way to avoid spelling the color is to
drop the roots into boiling water.

To FRY BEEFsTEAK.-Pound but do

and let it brown; season the steak on

it cook quickly; when done and nicely

A Safeguard against RatS.-Rats are
accomplished rOpe-walkers, and are
able to make their way even along very
small cords. Consequently so long as
they can mount upon the lines, nothing
edible suspended therefrom is safe
from their attacks. A correspondent Of
the Boston Journal Of Chemistry uses
wires, upon which circular pieces of tin
are strung, and hangs his meat, grain,
etc, between the tin pieces. The rats
cannot pass the tin circles, because, as
they attempt to climb over them after
walking out on the wire, the pieces re-
solve.

DO not AIloU the Frogs to be Pared
The frog of tue foot of every horse is
the natural support of the foot, and
should never be cut away except to re-
move the rough edges which occasion
ally appear from common wear. At a
late meeting of the farriers and horse
shoers in Wilmington, Del, there was
a great deal said In condemnation of
the manner in which horses are shod,
especially in the rual districts. A lect-
ureT, a veterinary surgeon according
to the New York HERALD said that "the
frog of the foot was often pared away
so a~rtistically to make a neat job that
the tendon or muscle that extended
down the leg, Over what is known as
the pulley bone, and gave the foot its
motion, was often injured, and then the
horse would be weak in the legs, and
blunder. He severely characterized
the habit of burning the hOof with a
red hot shoe to make it fit, and said
there ought to be a law passed to hang
any blacksmith who would use red hot
shoes in this way. The shoe should be
fitted to the shape of the foot, rather
than the foot fitted to the shoe.

The NeU Bergen TunneL-It has been
decided by the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western Railroad Company that
the new tunnel under Bergen Hill shall
be arched with brick Throughout the en-
tire length, $500 feet. Of this distance
the arching has been completed, except
900 feet. 1t will give an idea of the
work when it is stated hat 7,000,0 600
brick have been laid in the arching. All
the shafts have been torn down and
will be rebuilt in such a manner that
the ventilation will surpass that of any
tunnel in the country. The cost of the
additional arching will, in the opinion
of Mr.. Sloan, President of the Della
ware, Lackawanna, and Western Rail
road, be more than compensated by the
security against accidents from falling
rock.

DIsBUDDING FRUIT TREEs.-The sea-
son for d%isbudding fruit trees is fast APP
preaching. The importance of the
operation is generally acknowledged,
and upon its proper performance de-
ponds the production of clean, healthy
wood and the best Of fruit. Take, for
instance, a single branch of the peach
tree, when it first starts in the spring;
if In a healthy, fruit bearing condition,
it will throw out many shoots and a
great number of blossoms, and if the
whole of these were left, it is probable
two or three of the leading shoots would
draw all the nourishment to themselves
and become rank and over-luxuriant,
whilst the remainder would be weak
and worthless. In like manner the
fruit would be small, i~ll-flavored and a
great portion abortive. Hence the pru-
ming called %disbudding by which we
mean the removing of every shoot that
is not required, and the stopping of new
shoots that apparently are not wanted
to give form and health to the tree, by
rubbing out buds which, if left, would
grow. The same should be done with
the fruit blossoms; so many of them
should be rubbed away as to leave the
remaining one to gather full blood and
form good fruit. All varieties of fruit
trees require annually this system of
pruning, and the time to do it Is when
they are In full bloom.

ROTATION OF CRops.-Plants, like
animals, differ much in their habits,
and the different sorts of food on which
they subslst, The broad-leaved clovers,
turnlps, and mangolds abstract from
the air a large portion Of their growth,
while the narrow eaved grains and
grasses partake more largely Of mineral
food, which they draw from the soil.
This fact will explain the great advan-
tage OF rotation in crops.

barley, and II Is a popular idea with

from barley TO oats often, when i'm

oats and beans are the best food for put

makes the matter very plain, aud shows
that If you want pace, Indian corn, al
though nOminally cheaper, is not cheap
at all. When we feed a bullock, a
sheep, or a pig, for sale, after it has
passed a store stage, we want to make
1t fat as quickly and as cheaply as pos.

when 1t Is profitable 20 make a horse
fat, as, for instance, when he is going
up for sale. For this purpose an addi-
ton of about a pound and a half Of oil
cake to his ordinary food has a good eff

PLANTING CORN IN DRILLs.-Among
the experiments of the Kansas Agricul-
tural College last year was one having
for its object to ascertain the relative
values of the two methods of planting
corn-in hills and in drills. Four plats
were laid off across a portion of the
field very uniform as to the character of
its soil. Each plat contained four rows
of corn, the rows being three and a half
feet apart. In the first plat the corr
was planted in drills, in the second in
hills, after the common fashion; again,
the third was planted in drills and the
fourth in hills. When the corn was
about six inches high the drilled plants
were thinned out leaving the stalks as
nearly as possible ten inches apart in
the rows; the plats in hills were like
wise thinned out, leaving the same
number of stalks In every plat through
out the experiment. In %cultivating the
plats care was taken to give each the
same treatment, and beyond thinning,
hoeing one and %cultivating twice, no
special treatment was given the plats.
The corn was husked November IL, and
the weighings showed for the drilled
plats a yield of seventy-one bushels per
acre; for the plats in hills sixty-two and
a half bushels per acre-an advantage
in favor of the method of planting in
drills of eight and a half bushels per
acre. BY the "bushel' of corn men
toned in these experiments it is to be
understood in every case seventy-two
pounds of ears.

"HEAR! HEAR!"-This phrase was
originally "Hear him." and was used
to remind listeners of the duty of pay
ing attention to the speaker, but it has
gradually become a cry expressive of
approval, or, when used ironically, of
the reverse. Sheridan, the famous wit,
orator and dramatist, was a member of
the House of Commons. Once, when
making a speech there, he was annoyed
by a member behind him frequently
calling out "Hear, hear" without any
regard to the prOpriety of the occasion.
Sheridan laid a trap for him, and began
to describe a political opponent in very
uncomplimentary language, ending his
vituperation with the question:
"Where shall we find a more knavish
fool or a more foolish knave than this ?"
At which the interrupter called out
Justify, "Hear hearl' Sheridan turned
round and thanked him for the infor-
nation, sitting down amid the laughter
of the house.
