THE WITNESS THAT KNOWS NOTHING.
Some witnesses in courts of justice
won't comprehend questions, no matter
how pertinent or how skiiiuiiy put.
Mr.. Parks, the witness alluded to be-
low, is fair specimen of the lot. The
prosecuting attorney thus addressed
him:
.'Mr. Parks, state, il you please,
whether the defendant, to your knowl.
edge, has ever followed any profession. !"
"He has been professor ever since L
have known him."
"Ah! A professor Of what?"
ga professor of religion"
"You don't understand me, Mr..
Parks. What does he do?"
swell, generally what he pleases.
"Tell the jury, Mr.. Parks, what the
defendant follows"
"Gentlemen OF the Jury, the defend
ant follows the crowd when they go to
drink"
"Mr. Parks, this kind of prevarica-
tion will not do here. Now, state, sir,
how the defendant supports himself.
al saw him last night supporting
himself against lamp-pOst.
"May it please your Honor, this wit
ness shows an evident disposition 20
trifie with this honorable court"
"The Court-"Mr. Parks, state, if
you know anything about 1t, what the
defendants occupation is. The Court,
let me say, has no idea that you mean
to be disingenuous."
Occupation, did you say, sir?"
Occupation" answered the Judge.
EYES, - echoed the counsel. "What
is his occupation? 2"
''Ir am not mistaken, he occupies a
garret somewhere in town."
"That's all, MIR. Parks. / understand
you to say that the defendant is pro-
fessor of religion"
"He is"
'Does his practice correspond with
his profession?"
81 never heard of any correspondence,
or letters of any kind"
"You said something about his pro-
pensity for drinking. Does he drink
hard?'
"No, sir! 1 think he drinks as easy
as any man l ever saw"
"One more question, Mr.. Parks: You
have known this defendant long time.
What are his habits3 Loose or other
wiser"
''The one he has got on now, think,
is rather tight under the arms; it is
certainly too short-waisted for the
fashion,"
"You can take your seat, Mr.. Parks. "

A RATHER gloomy bon mot, which
promises to be historical, marked trial
for alleged poisoning. "a person should
be able to give his opinion without mis-
takes" said the attorney general. "He
is as well able as a lawyer" replied
DIR. Warren. "a doctors mistakes are
buried six feet under ground" said the
lawyer. "And the lawyers are often
hung six feet above it," replied the
doctor.

In HOLLAND, pastures are stocked
with cows and sheep in equal numbers.
The sheep eat the hard anu wiry grasses
which the cows reject, and keep the
turf close and fine. Care is also taken
not to overstock. The presence of the
sheep improves the fertility of the pas
ture, besides keeping down the growth
of bushes and shrubs. Our farmers
would find it 10 their interest to initiate
this feature of Dutch farming. Pastures
exclusively devoted to the use of cows
soon become overcome by bushes and
worthless grasses which the presence
OF sheep would keep in check.

AGRICULTURE.

A NEw METHOD WITH MILK.-The
managers of few creameries in New
York have adopted new method in
the management of their milk. AS the
new milk is received night and morning
at the creamery, il is run into large
yats, like makevats, and at once heated
TO 40 degrees or above, by driving
steam in the milk. This drives the
odors out and enables them to keep the
milk twelve TO twenty-four hours lon
ger than it would without heating. As
soon as the heating is done, cold water
is run around the milk and through 1t
by a series of horizontal tubes i'm the
middle of the milk, the top tube being
just below the cream, to be out of the
way OF skimming. Thus by cooling the
milk at the outside and the middle, 1t is
rapidly done and the cream hurried to
the surface.
When it has cooled to the tempera-
ture of the air, an air-tight cover is let
down upon the vat, shutting the milk
entirely away from all atmospheric in
fiuence-a circumstance of considerable
importance, as the air in cheese facto-
ries is seldom just what would be most
desirable. In this condition it stands
from twelve TO sixty hours, till the
cream is all up, or SO much of it as the
operator wishes to remove, and il is
then sweet and makes better skim
cheese than when nOtiheated.
The cream raised in this manner is
most delicious. 1t is the finest Favored
of any have met with in any factory,
being entirely free from the stale or
bitter taste which is developed in cream
raised on unscalded milk in the open
air, and the butter is all that could be
desired. 1t is strictly "gilt-edge," and
unsurpassed. This combines all the
best features of the different systems OF
heating, cooling and exclusion from
air, without any OF the disadvantages
which occur when either system is en-
ployed alone.
This process of butter. making, and
the apparatus used are without patents,
so far as l know, and L have no doubt
will continue so. But its use has not
yet been wide enough TO determine the
question OF profit. 1t costs little more
than the old methods, and requires IA
cilities for cooling which will be in the
way of of general adoption. But it Las
something of value by way of pointing
TO bottom facts in buttermaking, which
seems to be useful in an art so empyri-
cal as dairying-

POULTRY. There Is one point in
poultry management to which we wish
10 call especial attention, as but few
persons who rear poultry for profit ever
attach much importance, notwithstand-
ing that ii has a great influence upon
the profits. Ii is TO keep your birds
tame, whether they are kept in suitable
enclosure during the entire year, or
permitted TO have unlimited range; tor
il pays you 10 do so in many ways. If
you keep your birds tame, so they will
come To you quickly at the call and eat
out of your hand without any sign OF
fear or distrust, they will always be
quiet and content, and will fatten ahd
thrive much better. This matter is
well understood by breeders of the
larger kinds Of stock, such as cattle,
horses, sheep and swine. while there
are sensible few, who apply the same
principle 10 poultry. Many a fine nest
of eggs has been destroyed by wild
and frightened hen, hen which had
early learned TO fear her master or
owner. III uniform kindness and gen.
tleness had been resorted to, the hen
would suffer herself 10 be handled
while on the nest, and never once think
of leaving it in such hurry as 10 en-
danger the eggs. Ii the poultry on the
farm is kept tame, IL is not a very diff
cult matter TO catch one or more when
wanted Tor table or other uses.

DOMESTIC.

ECoNoMIzING FUEL.-One of the great
objections to ordinary fireplaces is that
too much of the heat goes up the CHM
ney, and innumerable have been the at
tempts to obviate that loss. Register
stoves have been invented, and various
cOntrivances adapted to regulating the
draught and reducing the size of the
fiue. One method proposed was to light
the fire on the top, and, after the first
few minutes, as the heat spread down.
wards, all the smoke passing through
the upper incandescent layer was con-
sumed, and SO much the more heat
saved, but the moment the fire had to
be made up again, all the advantages
were lost. One of the latest suggestions
to prevent the waste of heat was 10 form
the bottom of the CRATE of an iron plate
that plan is a patent coal ecOnOmizer,
which has a hollow pierced cylinder
rising from the middle of the plate.
The air entering the cylinder from be-
low the CRATE is thus conveyed at once
into the centre of the fire, and the heat,
instead OF rushing up the chimney in
undue quantity, is diffused into the
room, and coal is economical. The
perfection of combustion is achieved
when, instead of feeding the cylinder
with the vitiated air of the room, il Is
supplied by pipe communicating with
the external air. And further, we are
Informed that if camphOr or any other
lisinfectant is hung on the cylinder,
the scent is driven into every corner OF
the apartment. So that room may be
perfumed, disinfected or ventilated by
this cOntrivance when properly man
aged.
EFFECTS OF CoLD.-When the whole
body, or any portion of it, is frozen,
warmth should be communicated TO il
very gradually. If a limb that is not
actually frozen, but excessively cold, be
suddenly heated, very violent inflama-
ton will result. The part becomes
swelled, red and blue. with insuppOrta-
BILE darting pains. If the part has been
actually frozen and is quickly warmed,
then these symptoms are aggravated,
and soon terminate in modification. In
order 10 thaw out a frozen limb, il is
best TO rub it with snow until sensibility
and motion return. LII snow be not
handy, use ice-water. When sense and
motion return, the frictions are 10 be
made with brandy, tincture of myrrh,
camphOrated spirit of wine, or other
stimulants. Next endeavor to excite
perspiratiOn by giving warm teas,
mulled wine, and putting To bed in q
chamber where there is iire.
