Water-P ;0of Bla cking.

If ever one needs a good, water-prc of
backing for boots and shoes, it is at
this season of sleet, hail, and snow.
The following recipe for making a
waterproof backing comes to us high
ly recommended Dissolve an ounce
Of borax in water, and in this dissolve
gum shellac until it is the consistency
of thin paste add lampblack to color.
This makes cheap and excellent
backing for boots, gives them the
polish of new leather. The shellac
makes the boots or shoes almost en-
tirely waterproof. Camphor dissolv-
ed in alcohol, added to the backing,
makes the leather more pliable and
keeps it from cracking. This is sold
| at SO cents for a small bottle. By
making it yourself, ST. will buy mater
ials for gallon.

One Variety of Poultry,

Our experience is now decidedly III
favor of one variety Of poultry, after
breeding from four to six varieties.
We disposed of all this season but one
breed-Patridge Cochins-and the re-
suit is astonishing. We have more and
better chickens from this one breed
than from all the breeds combined,
when we had the greatest variety, for
with more than one variety they must
be kept up, with only a limited run or
an occasional airing outside, and poul.
try cannot bear confinement in the
summer. If they do not die, they do
