Good Corn Brcnd and Pudding.

The same money will purchase two OF three
times as much nourishment in corn meal as it
will buy in wheat flour, and it is a matter of
economy to buy as much OF the former as can
be made palatable. Few corn-bread recipes
will give as continued satisfaction as follows !:
One quart of sweet milk, one teaspoonful
cooking soda, one teacupful of molasses, two
two teaspoonfuls of salt, four teacupfuls of
fine corn meal, and from three to four teacup-
fuls of wheat flour; mix well together, and
bake slowly for an hour or more. 1t keeps
moist for several days, and is relished by most
persons. The proportion of flour and meal
may be varied to suit the liking. The above
preparation, cooked in steamer, makes a
good pudding, to be eaten with cream or milk
and sugar, or butter alone.-Cottage Hearth

HOlRfeiu Cows

The agent of the Shakers, at West Pitts
field, Mass, bears the following testimony in
favor of the Holstein COWS for the butter
dairy:
One COW, seven years old in the spring of
1875, calving March II, has given on an
average, twenty quarts per day to the pres
ent date. tested her milk in butter from
the 18th of June for seven days, during
which time she made fourteen pounds of nice
butter, with no extra feed and no more than
a common pasture.
The second COW, six years old in the spring
of 1875, calved September 22d, 1875, and af-
ter four or five days, her milk was reserved
by itself and set for cream, after letting the
calf suck what it would three times a day
From the surplus of seven days, I found on
weighing the butter, thirteen pounds of a
fine article, and in total quantity per day,
after three weeks of the time of the calf suck
ing, she had averaged from twenty-four TO
twenty-six quarts per day ofmilk.
November oath, 1874, I bought thorough
bred imported Holstein bull, one year old
past, and his gain in ten months is four
hundred pounds, maksng an average of
fourty pounds per month and not on high
feed.
They are fine growing stock, large, good
feeders, and l can say with all freedom,
that they are liz my estimation the best for
market, mixers, butter cheese, oxen and
beef of any thoroughbred stock now known
in the country. / should be pleased to show
the above sample to any and all who may be
pleased to call.-RuraI Neao YORKER.

Interfering.

Several years ago, I had 17-hands, 1900
lbs. roadster, that strained her right hind leg
at play, when three years old, so as to start a
SPAWN, but letting her rest that season, and
raised colt the next, cured the SPAWN, in
appearance, but the leg was weaker than the
other, so that the foot would often hit the
left ANGLE, after getting little tired, making
her worthless for journeying. After trying
several pads, cups, balls, &C., each of which
would soon cause as bad, or worse, wound as
the interfering, took an old boot leg. and
cutting out the seam, fitted an anklet,
about six inches long, reaching below the
joint, as well as I could when dry; then soak
ed, stretched and worked it, till it fitted like
the natural skin, and lacing it up behind
with shoe strings Zone below the fetlock), 1
left it on to dry. After marking and cutting
out an oval hole about 24 inches long hOri-
totally and II inches vertically over the
wound, 1 cut a piece of tin a little larger
than the hole, and shaped it, with tinman's
roundfaced hammer, in concave block,
about like Longitudinal third Of a hens egg,
1 soldered No. IA timed wire around the
edge, and second thickness of tin across the
centre, to strengthen it; punched three holes
one-foruth of an inch apart inside the wire,
and sewed it to the leather. The wound
was thus entirely guarded, and the leather
fitted so perfectly that there was no turning
around or moving up and down to cause
chatting. l could, ever after, drive days or
weeks with impunity, and as the hair and
leather were alike in color, hardly any one
would notice the protector, which was the
most perfect thing for the purpose l have
ever seen. doubt its being materially i'm
proved. The guard may be cast-iron.-
