Domestic Receipts.

PIcKLED CUCUMBERs.-Put them in a
wooden or stong vessel, pour over strong salt
aud water boiling hot, put weight on to
keep them under the pickle. After three
days, pour it off, boil, and turn it over again;
let it stand three days again; then take them
out and let them lie one night in plain cold
water; next day put them over the fire, but
do not let them boil, allowing one table,
spoonful of alum to one gallon vinegar, mace,
cinnamon, peppercorns, white and black
mustard-seed and grated horseradish, one
tablespoonful each to every gallon vinegar.
and one teaspoonful turmeric, and two ana
one-half pounds sugar. Fold a double piece
of linen, and soft thick brown paper, and
tie the jars tight; throw in the vinegar and
keep in dry place. A bladder and linen
cloth are nice to be over the pots.
A PASTE THAT WILL KEEP WELL.-A
correspondent of the Druggists Circutdr,
gives this formula for non-poisonous paste
that will keep well in hot weather: wheat
flour, one ounce; powdered alum, one-haii
drachm; water sufficient, or eight ounces; Oil
of Glove. or wintergreen, three or four drops.
Rub the flour and the alum with the water to
the consistence of milk place this over mod
crate fire, and stir constantly, until the paste
drops from the wooden paddle in ielly-like
fakes and has the appearance of glycerite OF
starch. While the mass is still hot, add the
essential oil, and pour the paste into an
earthen-ware pot or open jar. In the course
of about an hour crust forms on the top;
pour gently on this an inch of water, more or
less. When some paste is wanted. decant the
water, take out the quantity needed, and put
some water again on the remainder, repeat
ing the operation each time. Paste may be
kept in this way for months, and will never
be troubled with flies.
CLEANING BLACK SILK.-One of the
things mot generally known" at least in this
country, is the Persian method of cleaning
black silk; the modus operafadi is very simple,
and the result infinitely superior to that
achieved in any other manner. The silk
must be thoroughly brushed and wiped with
cloth, then laid fat on board or table and
spopged well with hot coffee, thoroughly freed
from sediment by being strained through
muslin. The silk is sponged on the side in
tended to show it is allowed to become par
TALLY dry and then ironed on the wrong side.
The coffee removes every particle of grease,
and restores the brilliancY of the silk without
imparting to it either the shiny appearance
or crackly and papery Stiffness obtained by
beer, or indeed any other liquid. The silk
really appears thickened by the process and
this gooo effect is permanent. Our readers
who will experimentalize on an apron or era
vat will never again try any other method.

Feed a Li,,Ie Corn pIeaI.

It's nonsense to say that it makes no differ
ence what you feed your mich cow The
quantity Of milk, cream and butter depends
very much upon the kind of feed used. A
little experience Of our own may be worth re-
lating in evidence of the statement. During
the winter and early spring we had been Civ
ing our grade Jersey cow mixture of meal
and middlings, but when we put her on good
pastures a few weeks ago, we thought we
might safely discontinue the ration Of meal,
and accordingly fed only few quarts of bran
at milking time. Mrs. K. soon began to
wonder what was the matter with the cream
it was sothin compared with its former ap-
pearance. She became anxious about her
ILL" and wondered if she wasn't sick; bat
her tat, sleek sides and contented look said
mo" to that. After an experience of abors
Two weeks with the bran diet, we returpSd to
the corn meal mixture, and on the vs11y next
day change in the cream was esearly per-
ceptible. 1t now Skins off tbick and heavy,
and the cream crock fill rapidly, 30 that
churning day comes twice week. We are
satisfied that it pays to feed corn meal both
summer and winter.-Indiana Farmer.

Fall Seeding 10 Grass.


r, The month of August or the first half of
september think the very best time to SOW
run,out, low lands to grass. 1t gives the
seeo good chance to get well rooted before
kill. have followed fall seeding for a num-
Der OF years with very good results when
sown early. This usually is my first work af-
ter haying is over, TO turn over run-out low
land which is too low to plant, and sow down
to herds grass and Timothy-.the earlier the
better. My dairy consists OF only three cows
and a two. year-old heifer not yet come in,
which stable at night, keeping loan under
them to take up all the liquid manure. This
mix well with what horse manure / have.
l also make and apply about the same guam
tlty to the acre as do for corn, and the re-
suit Is very satisfactory. l have herds grass,
which have cut and in the barn. measuring
from four feet to four feet and six inches in
length, and in some cases the heads from five
to seven and three quarters inches in length.
