KEEPING MEAT IN HoT WEATHER.-Great
is the convenience of good refrigerator
But many of us, who live in the country,
have to get along without such convenience.
Farmers families, who often depend upon
the butchers meat-cart for supplies of fresh
meat, are annoyed by the bother and the
waste that comes of getting more beef or
mutton on hand than they can conveniently
use up before it becomes tainted. The
most foolish waste, is to eat more of it than
you need, with the idea of "saving it )"
the doctors bill that may result from over
loading the digestive organs is not SO good
q show of economy, as the fresh eggs you
might coax from the hens by feeding them
any excess of meat. The meat should first
be wiped clean and dry. Some sprinkle it
we'll in all parts with salt. Others use
black pepper plentifully (washing and wip-
ing it we'll before using it to remove the
pepper or salt), and then hang it in the
coolest place possible-some in the well,
others in a cellar. Perhaps the best pre-
caution is to wrap it in dry cloth, and
cover it with charcoal,dust. Some say that
wood ashes will answer about as well as
charcoal, but 1 only know the virtues OF
charcoal by experience. [ have found that
charcoal will even remove a Sigh degree OF
taint. am told that mutton is improved,
as well as preserved, for short time, by
wrapping it in a cloth wet with vinegar,
and laying it on the bottom of a dry cellar
All kinds of meat, including fish and fowl
may be preserved in brine for longer Oh
shorter time.-An,erica,, Agricult.srist.

MAKE THE HORSES WoRK.-Horses were
designed as beasts of burden, to relieve man
from fatiguing drudgery. 1t does not hurt
them to work hard, if they are treated
kindly. 1t is not the hard drawing and
ponderous loads that wear out horses and
make them poor, balkey and worthless
but it is the hard driving, the worry by
rough and inhuman drivers that use up
more horse-fesh, fat and muscle, than all
labor team performs. Consider the pom
derous loads that many teams are required
to cart every day, and they appear to grow
fatter and stronger every year. They are
treated kindly. On the other hand, other
horses, that do not perform half the labor
soon grow poor and give out, and the next
we hear of them is that they die with the
harness on. Hard work does not kill them
but the worrying, fretting and abuse die
the job.

RAsPBRRRIEs.-The wood, or canes, that
bear fruit this year will die the next, and
the green shoots that are now growing will
bear next years fruit. If more of these
new shoots than are wanted start up, select
three or four of the best to each stool, and
treat the others like weeds. When the
shoots for next year reach 3, or at the most
4 feet, stop them by pinching off the ends.
The "Cap" varieties do not sucker. at a
distance from the plant, but shoot up from
around the base. Keep the new shoots

We prefer to cut out the old canes as soon
as picking is over.

CURE FOR CRoUP.-A medical journal says
Group can be cured in one minute, and the
remedy is simply alum and sugar. The
way to accomplish the deed is to take a
knife or crater and shave off in small par
cles about tea-spoonful Of alum, then mix
it with twice its quantity Of sugar, to make
it palatable, and administer as quickly as
possible. Almost instaneous relief will
follow,

SOMETHING FOR POULTRY MEN.-Poultry,
it is said, cannot be kept in large numbers
in confined areas without detriment to their
constitution. Colonel Taggert, of Northum,
berland, Pa, provides food and exercises
for fowls at the same time. In the poultry
yards are several beds about thirty feet
square each, in which the Colonel buries
oats, several bushels to the bed. The grains
begin, of course, at once to swell and ger.
inmate, and the fowls have free access
scratching and eating the tender sprouts tc
their hearts content. While the fowls are
thus busy on one bed new one is pre-
pared which is in readiness for them by the
time it is required. The idea is a good one

The foil, on which the stylus makes the IN

be duplicated by the electrotypc process, thus
rendering it hard, and can be used at any time
by replacing on the cylinder and setting it in

has been spoken in or near the machine.
We reproduce in this consection the follow
ing condensed paragraph which appeared in
this paper few weeks ago, as embodying some
of its peculiar features and accomplishments
The voice of the phonograph in its present
state OF perfection is that of II person talking

The invention is yet in its infancy, ana what
may be the Improvements which will speedily
and probably follow it is impossible to say
Mr. Edison has already succeeded In making
the monograph sufficiently delicate to record
and reproduce the words of a speaker, talking
in an ordinary way, four feet from the instru-
mcnt The power with which the sound can
be reproduced depends on the species of sound
ing-board which is used, and on this point
more decided results will no doubt be obtained
At present, in large room full Of persons there
is no difficulty in hearing the words distinctly
from all parts Of the room. The amount OF
talking which can bc recorded on a small piece
OF tin.loil is marvellous. Mr.. Edison has sue
ceeded in putting AZ, 600 words on sheet of tin
foil about ten inches square. So far, thin cop
per sheets have been found to work most salts
iactorly, and it is probable that diamond points
will ultimately be used Mr.. Edison is confident

The five recent wonders Of the age SEEM tc
be those Of Edison and Prof Hughes-thc tele
phone, telcscopophone, monograph auri
phone, and microphone. These may be con
sidered as new inventions or discoveries. Those
apparently attracting most attention and most
likely TO become beneficial to our industries
arc the telephone and photograph Of Mr.
Edison.
The telephone is already so generally under.
stood that perhaps passing word will suffice
While the instrument is capable of transmitting
sounds over the common twine circuit erected
by our school boys across streets, and although
demonstrating principle, nevertheless the re-
quistcs for correct transmission to distant
points is over an electric circuit.
The monograph differs from the telephone
in this, that while beng really the outgrowth
of the latter, it is device for permanently pro
ducing and recording all kinds of sound
which the other can only transmit. Its repro.
auctions are permanent, and therefore can be
heard or used again. The photograph also
differs from the telephone in that the electric
battery is not essential nor can indeed be used
to advantage, 1t beng purely mechanical in.
ventlon. 1t is allied to the former from the
TACT that, like that its action depends upon
the vibratory motions of a metallic diaphragm
