The Most Profitable Part of the Farm.

Those who attend TO the gardens in
the spring and have kept them CLEAR of
weeds are now realizing the profits of
their work in large dividends of fresh,
palatabie and healthy vegetables
while those who neglected their gar
dens and suffered the weeds to grow
rank and cover the ground see their
folly and determine to do better next
time. We fear that such men will not
keep their resolution but go on in the
same old track, dining on rusty pork
and salt beef. We have no bowels of
compassion for such shiftlcss men /;
We pity their wives aud children who
are obliged to live on such mean d.

in their reach if the head of the fami-
ly would pnt into exercise a little

Cucmbsr Pickles.

The following is the way III which
| the favoritc German cucumber pickles
are made: When quite fresh gather
ed, they are to be laid in a cold strong
brine for six hours, and The liquog
drained off, raised to boiling point,
and again poured on them. Here they
must lay for twelve hours, when the
liquor is again strained of, aud the
same process repeated. The cucum,
bers ae now taken out, placed In
cold water for one hour, and then al
lowed to dry. Whole cloves, pepper
corus, aud few laure, leaves and car.
away or fennel seeds are then boiled
in a little vinegar, aad the liquor
poured on them while still hot. In a
week or fortnight, or earlier still il
there be any appearance of mold, the
vinegar is poured oil, once more beii-
ed and poured over, and then the Gu
cumbers may be set aside in suitable
vessel until required FOR use.

Feed For Chickens.

Bone meal is often recommended for
mixing with the food of chickens. 1t
is more than likely that certain por-
ton of this may be dlgested and as
simulated, since it will be thoroughly
triturated in passing through the giz.
zard. 1t will hardly be necessary,
however. when fowls are fed some an
imal food, as they should be, where
they do not have full liberty in sum-
mcr. When eggs are expected they
should always be fed literally with
refuse meat, chopped, in winter.
Many persons, instead of feeding
the meat fresh, boil the meat and
bones into soup, to be mixed with the
meal fed, the meat being chopped fine
or fed separately. When the meat is
chopped it is better to mix it with.the
meal fed, since this allows the whole
flock TO get their due share. Once a
week, it is well to add 10 the mess for
one hundred fowls large tablespoon
full of pepper, two dozen medium
sized onions, two tablespoonfuls OF
sulphur, and quart of ground char
coal. This, with such green food as
you may be able to supply-choppcd

ing the chickens, is dig out-a trough
smoothly, or make solid plank trough
a little wider than the width of q
spade. Grind the spade sharp, and
keep it so, and the labor of chopping
will be reduced to minimum. II
should not be necessary to say that
fowls should not be kept exclusively
on corn, as to the grain fed. If AMI
NAL food and vegetables are allowed
it may compose the bulk of the food
given. Wheat screenings and othel
refuse grain may be given whole, bu
the greater the variety of food, th'
better the returns from the fowls kept

The improved kind of tuberous-
rooted Begonias, now everywhere SO
abundant, make excellent basket
plants. In this way their large bril-
liantly colored blossoms, which are
naturally of q dropping character, can
be seen to advantage, and If grown IN
good soil and kept well supplied with
water in moderately cool dry house,
they will produce charming display
for months in succession. On rock
work, too, in any corner of conserv-
atory or green house, or even out Of
doors in warm corner, they grow
and flower freely and are exceedingly
effective. To tall, light-leavcd, sub.
tropical plants, in q warm sheltered
situation, they would add variety o.
color and be much more satisfactor,
than plants of other kinds often used
for such purposes.

Elections seem to be in order everywhere

countries been passing through the throes
of a canvass. France has just gone through
a supplemental election for delegates to the

Republicans were generally successful. Ger
many, Austria, Cuba and the United States
are all in the midst of exciting canvasses,
while England If BeacOnstield's idea is car
ried out, will have an early election for mem
bers of Parliament. All of these contests are
important. That in Germany Is a contest
between the government and the Socialists,
in which the very civilization of the country
is at stake. In Austria the fight is between
the Magyar and Slav parties. We all know

try, in which the Republican party will meet
