"CoddIing" the Children.

Some good woman whose sympathy out
ran her knowledge, took very serious obiec-
tions to our remarks last winter in regard to
the best way of making men out of boys, and
women out of girls.
OFF with the tippets and cumbersome wraps
We said in substance, stop the over-fond
coddling and unwise care-and give the boys
and girls a fair chance for free and active
life when they are out of doors.
Don't do it, said the mother Keep the
darlings warm and dry. What does a great
healthy man know about the care of children !?
We own up to being healthy, but we were
q boy not so long time ago that we can't re-
member how the lads that grew to be strong
well men got their start. They weren't taken
to school in the winter III sleigh, nor were
the red-cheeked, lithe-limbed, vigorous and
graceful girls huddled into street car reek-
ing with bad air, or wrapped up in a close
carriage like q consumptive patient. The
boys never wore an overcoat when out at
play, nor mufiied themselves up with ''con-
forters" or tippets around the neck. Give
us a free coast or clean stretch of ice and
we could keep warm in those days. Coarse,
thick WOODEN stockings, stout boots, thick
finnnels next the skin and serviceable coat
that buttoned to the chin, with pants and
vest to match, and warm mittens, was the
| winter outfit that mothers of those days found
sufficient.
We quite agree with our timid mother re-
| ferred to as to the Importance of warmth but
differ as to the method of obtaining it, A
well child, old enough TO exercise freely,
ought to keep comfortable by warmth from
within, instead of too much protection from
without. From six to sixteen neither boys
nor girls should be coddled very much They
ought to walk run, play, work, like the hap
Ply and growing young animals they are.
Don't make the girls premature old ladies
nor treat the boys as you would their rheu.

Yes, you need never fear to feed any APP
pies to mich cows, when you have a surplus
which you wish TO dispose of. There is an
abundance of apples, this season, and many
Of the earlier ones, especially will be allowed
to go to waste Now if, instead of letting
the windfalls and unripe apples rot as they
fall, you would pick them up and feed to
cows giving milk the increase in quantity
would well repay for all the trouble, provided
discretion and good judgment are used nor
will the cows be injured thereby, Mt least,
such was the fact in the case which came to
my knowledge few years since, when there
was great abundance of apples. elsewhere
mentioned the same thing ut the time, and
here give the substance of the experiment
being personally acquainted with the expert
menter. The farmer was rising four-score
years, and had great quantity of apples,
same Us most others in the same locality. lie
revolved the question in his mind what to do
with the apples. To make them into cider
was out of the question, for want of casks to
put it in. Several other plans were equally
impractcable, and finally he hit on the idea
of feeding them to his cows. He had one
which gave only small quantity of milk,
aud with her he began his experiment, think
ing, perhaps, there could be but small loss
should the experiment prove failure. He
commenced by giving two quarts at feed,
and gradually increased it up to half bushel.
The cow began to increase the quantity of
her milk till she nearly or quite doubled in
quantity. The milk and cream were tested
at every stage, and found to be equally as
good as when grass alone constituted the
feed. To make assurance doubly sure, he
stopped feeding the apples, and Immediately
the COW fell of in her milk to her former
yield. After few days he began feeding
again, and former results were attained. 1t
must be understood that the apples were n
mixture of varieties, the majority being sour,
and windfalls at that. Being pleased with
the result thus far, he began to feed them to
his other COWS with good results, the gain in
milk being about fifty per cent, and the
quantity and quality of butter also increasing
in somewhat like ratio. l would state here
that the grazing was rowen feed of the mead
ow.
The only secret of success was in COM
mencing to feed in small quantity and grad
ualy increasing to the capacity of the cows
appetite. By commencing with small al
lowance, once day, the quantity may be in
creased daily till the maximum feed is reach
ed in one or two weeks, and only good results
follow. So, say, feed the apples to the
cows giving milk, rather than let them rot
on the ground, or even make them into cider,
especially the early cnes.-COr. ". d. Far

Farm and Household.


As We have mentioned on former occasion,
(says the Country Gentleman, we never met
with better preservation Of ice than in an old
STRAIGHTFORWARD shanty, the solid mass Of ice
blocks being surrounded on its six sides with
a closely packed stratum of sawdust. The
following statement by correspondent of the
Practical Farmer furnishes additional evidence
Of the success of this simple method although
we have not found it necessary 10 have the
sawdust over foot thick, provided it is fine
and uniform, and is compactly pressed or
beaten as the ice is built, so as to prevent the
possibility of any interstices, single one of
which would quickly melt the ice
All that is needed is the simplest kind of a
board building. l built woodshed last sen
son, thirty feet long and fourteen wide, and
used twelve feet at the north end for ice, and
notwithstanding the fact that we had but one
freeze last winter, and only got our ice house
two-thirls full of ice less than six inches
thick, we have used not less than fifty pounds
n day since the LIST of May and have let our
neighbors have at least one thousand pounds
We still have plenty of ice and think it will
last through September. For drainage we
threw in foot Of stone varying in size from
goose egg up TO those that would weigh ten
or fifteen pounds each. On this we put n foot
of sawdust and then packed the ice as close
rs possible, leaving space of fifteen inches
all around the outside. The ice should be cut
as true as possible so as to pack closely, and
every crack should be filled closely with brok-
en- ice. 1t should be filled in cold weather,
so that the ice will freeze solid, and you
should have sawdust on hand TO cover it at
once. Take great pains to pack the sawdust
well around the outside. As soon as the open
windy weather Of March sets in, visit the ice
house every day, and with spade in your
hand, tramp round and feel with the spade
for holes, and when you find them, fill and
tramp solid. In n small ice house this is alb
solutely necessary if you expect to keep your
ice through the summer
am satisfied that my ice wasted more in
March and April than in July and August. A
body of ice, ten feet square and ten feet high
well packed and covered with sawdust to the
depth of eighteen inches, will keep through
the hottest season we ever have, if attention
is given to it daily but weeks neglect
even in March, may work II hole through it
from top to bottom and leave you without ice
in mid. summer

A physician prints the following simple
preparation for weak eyes; Get five cent
cake of elder flowers at the Druggists, and
steep in one gill of soft water 1t must be
stepped in bright tin or earthernware strain
nicely and then add three drops of laudanum !;
bottle it tight and keep in cool place then
use it as a wash, letting some of it get in the
eyes. Follow this and relief is certain. If
the eyes are painful or much sore make small
congresses, wet in the MIXTURE and bind
over the eyes at night. l can warrant the
above as harmless and sure, having tried it in
a number of cases where other skill and rem
edies had utterly failed. If the eyes are bad
ly infamed use it very freely and a tea made
of elder flowers and drunk, will help cleanse
the blood. Pure rock salt and water will
strengthen your weak eyes if you battle them
daily in it, l would earnestly advise you to
avoid mixtures or washes containing mineral
or other poisons.

SURE DEATH TO BEDBUGs Take of the
mattresses, remove the springs and Stats,
wash and clean well with soap and water.
Then get some oil of NORWOOD and a small
camel's hair brush; dip the brush in the oil,
rub it all around the inside of the bedstcad
and on each end of the Stats, then put more
on the brush and touch each corner of the
rooms well, rub it along the boards next the
floor, and on any cracks or breaks in the pa
per or walls, also around the doors. If any
bugs are in the room this will kill them; If
in other rooms, they will turn back from the
one containing the oil. The oil is not disa-
greeable in regard TO odor, but is littl- ex-
pensive. In country places, or for persons
of small means, the herb can be used, or
NORWOOD ten, made very strong, can be
applied to all woodwork. 1t will not be quite
