LEGISLATURE NOTES.

The Legislature will adjourn on We'd
nesday morning-we knew that Thanks
giving would end it.
A bill has passed the House abolish
ing the Board of Agriculture. This
Board, though not as useful as it might
have been had the farmers supported it,
has been the means of giving large
amount of useful information to the pub
lie. Eighty four meetinge have been
held in the last eight years. and large
amount of useful reading, in the reports,
has been distributed. 1t is probable
that the antipathies of certain men had
more to do with the action of the House,
than good sense or conscience.
An attempt has been made to SO ar
range taxation, as to partially exempt
mortgaged property; but the subject is so
full of difficulties. that it is not probable
anything can DC zone.
The House has passed bill relieving
towns of liabilities for damages on high
way, and has SO provided that roads may
be kept in better condition than at
present.
The Senate does not propose to do
away with the fish and game laws just
yet.
The Legislature refuses to create a
Board of Health. All these s.boards'
cost money, and the State is content tc
get along at present without any more
of them.
Dan. P. Webster of Putney has beer
chosen Railroad Commissioner. There
was quite scrabble for this office.
There has been deal of talking abou
fishing in Lake Champlain, and some arr
trying to prevent Vermonters from fish
ing, while Canadians catch by the ton.

Orange Pudding.

A correspondent of the Rual Ne,c
Yorker gives the following recipe for
making orange pudding:
Three pints of milk; seven heaping ia
blespoonfuls of sifted corn starch; yelks
of four eggs; salt, flavor and swecten to
taste. Peel six oranges; cut into fine
pieces and remove the seeds; lay in the
bottom of deep pudding dish; sift over
as much sugar as required; when cool
pour over the oranges the corn starch;
beat the whites of the four eggs; add
two tablespoonfuls Of sugar, flavor,
spread over the top of the pudding;
place in the oven until tho meringue is
of delicate brown. Although this rec
ipe seems simple, it requires care in
putting the ingredients together First
let the milk come to boil; add the corn
starch which has been previously dissol-
we'd in little cold milk; boil until it
thickens; take from off the fire and stir
in the well-beaten yelks, the sugar and
favoring; return to the back of the
range for few Misunderstanding con-
stantly; when again taken from the fire,
beat the corn starch until it is cool
enough to pour over the oranges. This
constant beating prevents the corn
starch from being lumpy: The mer-
ingue should not be made until the pud-
ding is ready for it to be spread over
the top and placed in the oven.

many others who count themselves good

Drawn is necessary to success in farm
ing. The farm is no place for man
who is not thinker. A clear head is
as necessary as willing and skillful
hand; and this is becoming more appar-
ent every day. The folly of the slip
shod, hap-hazard methods in farming,
too generally employed, is becoming
more and more apparent; men are con-
quering their prejudices and falling in
with the modes and practices of their
more advanced neighbors because there s
money in it. These constitute the adj
vance guard in progressive farming. 1t
remains for the still incredulous many
to learn that the traditional system of
impoverishment Of both land and farm
er by the skinning" process which has
so long been a reproach to the nation,
must abandoned, and that to get out of
the old ruts" it is necessary to get
knowledge.
Within comparatively brief period
the study of agriculture in the United
States has assumed a new form. The
agricultural colleges, industrial univer-
sites and schools, farmers institutes
and other appliances have inaugurated
a new era in this behalf, and by the aid
of the agricultural which, after
all, is the great educator of farmers-is
destined to quicken the mental forces
of the agricultural masses, and bring
about q revolution in the agriculture Of

Beans for Sunday.

"Pipsy Potts tells how they get up
a Sunday dinner, to the Home Magazine
folks:
While | am writing, the girls ask what
they will prepare for our Sunday dinner
Without looking up | dreamily answer
Baked meat and beans, corn meal
pudding. and some rice boiled in plenty
of water, with mere seasoning of salt
in it. Don't fix much; get all done by
noon, so you can sit down and read and
rest. and not be tired out before Sunday
comes.
The beans were cleaned and put to
soak in warm water last night.
TO prepare nice dish of baked beans,
boil with them pound of pork, part
fat and part lean: when done, put the
beans in the pan or baking dish, lay the
meat on top, rind side up; cash it, pour
in the broth, with two spoons of molas-
ses, put it in a hot oven and let it bake
until the meat is nicely Drowned. Set
it away for Sunday, and just before
starting to church pour on it little
boiling water, and put it in the oven,
where it will heat gradually.
The meal pudding we make this way
on Saturday:
Take one pint of sour cream, or very
rich sour milk, one teaspoOnful of soda
dissolved, two eggs, a heaping teaspoon
full of white sugar, and handful of
raisins, currants or any kind Of dried
fruit-raisins are preferable; thicken
into batter with two-thirds corn meal
and one-third -four. Pour the batter in
to buttered cake pan, and steam it for
two hours. 1t will puff up lightly, and
eaten with sweetened cream, it is delic-
iOus.
We make ours on Saturday, and steam
it over for Sunday.

1t is cheering to notice the indications
of progress in all bran ches of farming.
The sign of this advance are apparent in
some departments Of husbandry than in
others, yet it is plain that there is for
ward movement all along the line. A
striking evidence of rapid improvement
is seen in the dairy industry; the live
stock interest is another which has
made rapid growth within few years;
and the employment of the better meth
DDS in field culture, and in the care of
marketing of produce by large and in
creasing number of farmers, as well as a
growing spirit of inquiry, and an evident
desire for more general interchange of
thought among themselves on matters
pertaining to their calling, show that
The drift is in the direction of improved
agriculture
This is certainly a matter of congratu-
lation, promising greater measure OF
good to the tillers of the soil, yet when
we look abroad we are compelled to ad-
init that a comparative small number
of those engaged in this greatest pur-
suit, have caught the spirit of improve
