THE HOUSEHOLD.

VENTILArIoN.-Many persons CON-
plain of always getting up tired in the
morning. This is very often due to
defective ventilation of the bedroom, or
from using an undue amount of warm
bed-elothes aud bedding. Feather beds
are too soft and yielding, and partially
envelope the sleeper, thus producing
profuse Precipitation. The habit OF
lying too much under blankets is also
very pernicIous by reason of the car.
bonic acid exhaled by the sleeper being
respired. Again, it is common error
to suppose that by simply opening a
window a little st the top, a room can
be ventilated. People forget that for
proper ventilation there must be an in
let and outlet for the air. In bedrooms
there is often neither, and If there is a
fireplace, it is generally closed up.
Again, it Is mistake to suppose that
foul air goes TO the top of a room. Ger
tainly the heated air goes to the top,
but the chief impurity, the carbonic
acid, falls to the bottom. There is
nothing so efficacious in removing the
lower strata OF air as the ordinary open
fireplace, especially if there is fire
burning.

BOILED CRACKED WHEAT is an unsur-
passed breakfast dish, if rightly cooked.
Everything depends upon that. It is
more economical for farmers to use
their own wheat, than TO buy the pre-
pared article. After the wheat is
cleaned and dried, it may be coarsely
ground in cOffee-mill. This also is
made like a "mush," but should be
cooked fully as long as corn mush-
from two TO four hours. Ii requires
frequent stirring TO be kept from bnrn-
ing. hen done, fill dozen-or less
teacups rather more than half full of
the "mush;" let stand until cold; turn
out of the molds, carefully. into dessert
plates, or arrange all on platter. which
may be placed on the table, aud served
from that as desired. Eat with a sauce
of sugar and cream. Delicious! Of
course, all mushes require a seasoning
of salt, while being cooked. Wheat, so
prepared, forms also nice dessert for
dinner. A slice of jelly, served with
it, adds TO its delicacy for some palates.

"JUsr As NATURAL-"-A smart clerk
in a Detroit hardware store polished up
4 coal stove the other day, ran three
joints of stove pipe up behind some
shelves, and so arranged the stove that
one might think there was fire in it,.
Some one did think so. An old tramp
called in to beg a nickle, and seeing the
stove walked up to it, rubbed his hands
elected a gill of plug tobacco juice over
the stove and quietly remarked:
''Well, now, this seems just as natural
As can be-"
The clerk ran him out, worked half
an hour to renew the polish, and then
took down the pipe, sad at heart and
dissatisfied with the world in general.

FARM AND GARDEN.

TIE FARMER AS MANUFACTURER
How must the farmer manufacturer In
the first place he has natural fertility OF
his soil as the mill has its water privi-
lege. Next, he must obtain his raw
material at the cheapest rates-the waste
fertilizers of the farm; the getting the
most fertilizers from the cattle fed that
a judicious knowledge of food and ami
NAL growth will allow; the purchase
of an additional fertilizer If thought
best, at the lowest prices and of the
quality best adapted to the uses for which
it is 10 be applied. Next he must OBJ
tain the most work from his men and
machinery, and must apply the labor at
the right time and in proper manner.
He must combine all his resources in the
best way TO accomplish his results; the
best seed, sGfiieiency of fertilizer, the
right quantity of labor. When the job
is completed, and the goods, in the form
of salable product, secured, he must
seek the best market for them, and Sc
cure his pay. Even this is not the end.
He must see that his mandatory is not
deteriorating, and that it is left in
proper condition for producing another
batch of goods. If his goods are not
adapted 10 his market, failure of OBJ
tanning profit must ensue. If his ex-
penditures are excessive, the profits
must likewise be diminished or cut off.
Hence. like the manufacturer, he must
calculate and decide in advance of mar

PROVIDING FOR THE POOR.-The scarcity
of work and the Increased number of appli
cants for support from the poor fund, have
aroused our citizens to the necessity OF max
ing some provision to meet the wants OF
that unfortunate class, whom the severity OF
the weather and the impossibility OF obtain
ing employment has driven to make appeals
for charity. The Y. NJ. G.. A. has gone
about the work Systematically, and with a
view to affordng the necessary relief to all
in need. They have held several meetings
and the plan determined upon is to double
the committee on Relief of the poor and di-
vide the city and Surroundings into six dis
tricrs, to each Of which member OF the
Committee will be assigned, whose duty it
shall be to examine into all cases of poverty
which come under their observation, or may
be reported TO them, and furnish such
necessities as the occasion may require.
The standing Committee ON Relief of the
Poor eonsists of Messrs. J. W. Todd, B. L.
Bagby and C. l.. Cooke and the additional
members who have recently been appointed
by the President of the Association, are
Messrs J. E. Guy, w. II. Peyton and II. D.,
Peck. The allotment of territory has not
yet been made, but in a few days the whole
plan will be matured and the active labor
eoSsmenced.
1t is hoped that all who may know of any
families Or persoEs in qistrass, whom pride
or other reasons prevent from making per-
sonal application, will at once notify some
member Of the committee, and thereby cna
BILE them to carry forward the noble work
and vigorously.

Monday YVES court day and an unusually
large crowd was in town. OF course the

GARDEN SEEDs.-With the approach oil
Spring the thoughts of the prudent house
wife and horticulturist turn to garden
seed, and the question "Where can the best
be obtained?" at once suggests itself. We
can save our readers much unnecessary
trouble by directing them to the popular
Drug Store of VIM. R. Tyree, on Main
Street, where a large supply of all kinds OF
seeds has already been received and where
the variety never ends. 1t will be crafty
ing to many to know that there has been a
great reduction in the price of garden seeds,
and that one-half of the old price is all that
is now sked for the best products of the
standard horticulturists and seedsmen. Such
old and we'll known establishments as Ian
dreths and Ferry are in the market this
year, with their usual variety, at prices
which make it cheaper to buy than to raise.
Go to Tyree's and make your selections.
