their manure. and the faculty wi h
which il is distributed, are found IT, ur
the most economical and certain means
of constantly renewing the productive

Mr.. Mcchi, the most famous II ,hc

Inmates that Loo sheep folded on Al

Slams.
For preserving hams or beef, the
Farmers Home journal says: Take six
gallons of water, nine pounds Of salt,
there pounds of sugar, n gallon OF
molasses, three ounces saltpctrc and
one ounN' of saleratus. Mix these in
grIiients, and heat Ia a boiling point,
Swimming of all the impurities. When
cold, pour it on the meat. DO not rate
the amount of materials according Il
the amoun Of meat; this method cures
hams and leaves them tender and juicy
they never get hard. Leave the hams
in pickle from four to six weeks, ac-
cording to their size. 1t takes longer
o to curelarge hams than it does small
ones. Always move the hams after
they have been in the pickle three days
take them out and pack them over; thi,
is necessary, for when they are closely
packed together some of the hams dc
not have a chance To be penetrated by
the pickle. Keep beef in the same way
except boil over the pickle before the
warm weather in the spring.

The Laboratory of the System.

The stomach Is the laboratory Of the system, In
which certain mysterious processes arc constantly
going on. These result in the production Of that
wonderful vivifying agent the blood, which In
state of health rushes laden with the elements OF
vitality to the remotest parts Of the system. But
when the stomach is semi-paralyzcd by dyspepsia,
blood manufacture is carried on impcrfectly, the
circulation grows thin and sluggish, and the sys-
TEN suffers in consequence. Moreover, indigestion
reacts upon the liver and bowels, rendering the
first sluggish and the latter constipated. The
brain also suffers by sympathy and sick headaches
sleeplcssness ard nervous symptoms are engen-
dered. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters reforms this
state of things. gives permanent tone and Iegular-
ty to the stomach and It's associate organs, the
bowels and liver, and ensures complete nourish-
ment and increased vigor Of the system. 1t Is the
most popular as we'll as the most efficient anti
dyspeptic and tonic in America.

New Discoveries of Republican Embez,
Elements.

So accustomed has the. public become
to the embezzlement of funds by the Re
publican party, that what would ordina-
rily be deemed startling revelation
seems to make but slight impression.
From Washington there comes a state
ment from the Naval Committee "that
S462, 2,O00, ,090 in money has bean expended
since 1865, besides millions more in old
stores, and that Secor Robson alone, in
utter disregard and contempt of law, has
expended S1S0,000,000." The report
concludes by declaring "that the rotten
ness of the Navy Department is beyond
conception and recommends the Presi-
dent to have Robson indicted" On
the very same day, the 14th, Glover's
committee discovered forced treasury
balance of SIG, 100000, brought about by
false entry on June 13, 1865, at which
time Mccullough was Secretary and
Spinner was Treasurer. Connected with
this false entry was forgery and secret
issue of S19,000,000 of compound inter-
est notes, taken out of the revenue and
not accounted for anywhere. Nor did
the public debt statement for that month
account for the sum as having been
drawn from the revenue. Simultaneous
ly with the discoveries comes the revela-
tions that the money to defray the ex-
penses of the Republican visiting states
men was paid by the First National
Bank, as matter of accommodation to
the Treasury Department and Mr.. Hayes,
and that the bank was guaranteed re-
payment out of an anticipated appropri-
alton which the President wS to recon-
mend. The evidence that John Sherman
knew how the bills were paid, and coun-
tenanced the assurances of repayment,
which were given to the bank, is on file
with the Secretary of the Senate COM
mittee on Appropriations, and specifies
the purposes for which the money was to
be used, but studiously avoids saying how
the money was'obtained. 1t is believed
that the bank will lose all the money
unless Sherman pays the amount out of
his own pocket.-Straight- Ont Democrat.

GREENWOOD AND AUGUSTA RAIL
RoAD.-In q recent communication, Mr..
Bradley. President of the above road,
ssys:, -
81; regard the completion of the road a
fixed, fact. We ehave now seventeen miles
of the grading finished on this side of the
river. The entire length of the road
from Greenwood to the Savannah is
forty-six and fve.sixteenth miles. The
actual work is fully one-third done. The
contract for erecting q splendid iron
bridge at the river has been awarded to
reliable contractors, who are now casting
the iron for the structure. We think we
get it remarkably cheap, $26,000. The
cost of grading is only five hundred dol
lars a mile. The highest grade Of the
road is sixty-one feet. The grade of
many new roads is now over two hum
dred feet to the mile. The improved
machinery of the present day enables
railroad officials to run their trains with
ease on much greater grades than form
erly. Some of the new roads in Nevada
hayer grade of two hundred and ten
fee: to the mile, and the trains move on
this grade around the curves of the Rocky
Mountains at what we would cell fear
full speed. We make our road more level,
because we can then use cheaper machin-
ery."

How TO SrARcH.-Every housewife,
as we'll as laundry maid should know
how to starch. Here are good directions
from an experienced hand:
"When hot starch is used, take one
heaped table spoonful of starch to quart
of boiling water; after it has been beaten
down smooth with little cold water, if
it does not turn into jelly, put it into q
saucepan, and stir it while it is over the
fire till it does. To prevent the iron
sticking, stir a piece of wax candle two
or three times round in the hot starch, or
add four drops of fturpentine. Strain the
starch through piece Of muslin, and
cover it up till nearly cold. When the
things to be starched are dry, they should
be dipped into the starch; then wiring
them out, and when half dry place them
in towel, sprinkle with little water,
and roll them up until you are ready to
iron them. Instead of the candle, it is
good plan 70 keep piece of skinny fat
beside you, and each new thing you take
up, touch the tip of the iron with the
fat
