A Small Flower Garden.

a writer in the Western Fam
Journal recommends for a small flow
er garden the following list, as they
do not require treatment, are good,
sturdy varieties, will stand neglect,
yet do well: Asters, balsams, dian
thus, petunias, pllox, cal|ipsiS, vcr
benas, sweet peas, NJ: ,nOnette, Gin
Mas, maringolds and po1tu|acas.
The same writer again says: "The
plants l have named will afford Il
profusion Of flowers from June t."
October. Phlox will be the first to
blossom, and then pctunias will come
on, aud both of these flowers c"ntin-
ne to increase in beauty until hard
frost comes. Astcrs will he in per-
fiction in August and September.
Calliopsis begins to blossom in July,
and nearly all the others come on
early in that month. If old flowers
are removed and not allowed tn ~ t"
seed, you will have much greater
profusion of bloom. If You d" not
remove faded flowers. but allow them
to perfect seed, you will soon see
that your plants are losing 4 large
share of their former glory. You
can't expect plant t" ripen seed
and blossom profusely at the same
time.

Working Butter.

Do not work TOO much or too fast.
Work slowly until all the salt is thor
ongbly and evenly absorbed. II tn"
salt is not evenly absorbed the butter
will not bc of uniform color. Work.
ing it too fast will destroy the grain,
and the butter becomes salvy and
lard like in its texture. Let it stand,
or put it away in the tray for twenty
four homs. Then work it enough to
remove all the buttermilk or surplus
b,ine so that the butter may become
dry o like piece of cheese. Mold
into rolls, then set them away for
twenty four hours or until they be-
come hard and firm. The cloth
should now 10 put on, so as to cover
one end while the other is left open
for the stamp. The cloth should 10
cut in pieces Of exact size anil dip
ped in brine and the butter rolled
when the cloth is dripping wet. But
ter should never come in contact
with the bare hand. When in bulk,
it can he easily handled with a ladlo
and flat paddle.

terrible aud more dangeroust than
the dog. The rabid cat knows itS

in tho winter is about the same as in
the heat of summer. In tho sprin.
eases are mo,c frequent and in the
autumn least frequent. Sensitive
ness to pain is greatly diminished in
the mad dog. When whipped, burn

utter any complaint. The mad dog
runs away from home, but after tw"
or three days. absence he returns to
die near his master. The surest way
of preventing the effects Of rhid i'll

is the immediate caute,iza,ion of tho

with burning gnnpowlrr or some
other cauStic agent. II the cauteri-

wound, and, if possible, apply liEa-
tnre about the limb to arrest the cir
culation of blood.

tracts from this useful work may
