generate nildew, a tray full of quick lime
will be found to ABSORB the moisture and
render the air pure; but of course. it is
necessary to renew the lime from time to
time as it becomes fully slaked. 1t will be
found useful in safes and strong rooms, the

Home Made Vinegar Steep a pint of
good, firm corn in two and half gallons of
cold water for two or three hours, and then
put il on tn fire and boil it until the corn
shows signs of bursting Take it off before
the grains do burst and strain off the liquor,
adding half pound OF sugar - each gallon.
Place the cask or the jug containing it in the
sun, and in three weeks or month the liq-
uor will be converted into good vinegar.
The writer tried this recipe, using molasses
instead OF sugar in one case. but the sugar
makes far the best vinegar. 1t is both good

Good and Bad Farming.

To pillow your land wet is not good for it;
to pillow il badly will not favor the crop; to
harrow it badly is the same; so, if poor seed
is sown or the sowing is done late. Each of
these is bad. What il they all occur 70
gether? And this is the case with the
slovenly farmer. and accounts for his i'll sue
cess. He never succeeds-not even with a
good farm-just as a good farmer will sue
coed with poor farm. He knows that what
is done must be done well. not single item
excepted, for if his seed is bad there is a
failure, if all the rest has been done per-
fectly.
If he has put in his land wet, particularly
clay soil, all his narrowing and good seed
will be of no avail. 1t will bake and be-
that for years. If he puts his land in the
best of order, manures it. sows the best of
seed, but sows late, the chances are that he
will get an abundance of rus;ed straw, which
means shrunk berry. Now and then late
sowing is good. But farmer can not trust
to ''nOw-and-thens."
The failure of crop is great failure. 1t
means not only the loss OF the grain, but loss
of the labor, interest on the investment, and
impoverishment OF the soil. All want to be
done we'll; then there is no chance for loss
unless the elements or some mishaps inter
fere. But these would be still more damsg-
ing TO the sloveny farmer, who would have
little or nothing left. But the seasons usu-
ally are propitious.
If insects attack certain product other
products may be grown extensively. The
true, the safe doctrine is, do well whatever
you do. You are then in the list of the best
where there is success. The laws of nature
will not change for any man in any pursuit
If violated they will tell, and always disas
trously. But, on the other hand, they afford
a safe reliance; you may trust them.

ChnblainS.-It is a singular fact that in
the case of an affection of so common occur
renee and often so tormenting, but few peo-
pie know that the cheapest and most
effectal remedy is before their eyes every
day. 1t is fire. Although it may seem a
paradox to allay Inflammation by fire, yet
tmust be remembered that this form of 1t
has a peculiar character, and does not yield
to common antiphloglstic treatment. Hold
the parts afflicted as close to an open fire as
you can bear-so close that it will produce
condition, the sensation of burning; con-
tinue this for from ten to twenty minutes
That will give relief to the intolerable itch
ing and tingling at once for that day. If
they return, as they probably will in a
milder form next day, repeat the treatment;
they will disappear in the course of three
or four days. They are generally produced
when the parts are suddenly exposed to cold
air in moist or prespiring condition. Put
on dry socks before going out in the cold.

signs of a Prosperous Farmer.

When you see his barn larger than his
house, it shows that he will have large pro
fits and small Affections.
When you see him driving his work. iu-
stead of his work driving him, it shows that
be will never be driven from good resOlu
tions and that he will certainly work his
way to prosperity.
When you always see in his wood-house a
sufficiency for three months or more, it
shows that he will be more than ninety
days wonder, in farming operations, and
that he is not sleeping in his house after a
drunken frolic
Wien be has house separate from the
main building, purposely for ashes, and an
iron or tin vessel TO transport them, il shows
that he never built his dwelling to be a
funeral pile for his family, and, perhaps
himself.
When his sled Is housed in summer, and
his farming implements covered both winter
and summer, it plainly shows tnat he will
have good house over his head in the sum
mer of early life and the winter of old age
When his cattle are properly shielded and
fed in winter, it evidences that be is acting
according to the Scripture, which says that
"a mercful man is mercifui to his beast
When he is seen subscribing for papers
and paying in advance it shows that he is
speaking like book respecting the latest
Improvements in all matters, and that he
never gets his walking papers to the land of
poverty.
