Automatic buoys are proving of peculiar
value rs II nautical invention. They are
constructed in a manner somewhat
similar TO fog whistle, and are self
acting. They are forty-two feet in
length, and that part wherein the
whistle lies in twelve feet in diameter,
and attached TO a long iron tube about
two feet in diamtt ter. When in position
the tube descends vertically into the
water, the whistle part remaining as
nearly upright as the motion of the
waves will allow. When thus placed,
the swell OF the sea congresses the air
in the tube and forces II upward into
the whistle, causing it TO give with every
roll a sound like that of fog horn.
The strength and duration of the
sounds are increased or diminished as
the sea is heavy or smooth, and In a
snow storm or fog, these whistles can
be heard some ten OF twelve miles dis
tance. The buoys are for dangerous
localities, where beacons or lighthouses
cannot De constructed TO answer the
purpose Of a warning signal.

DRIED APPLE RoLL.-Make nice
dough as for dumplings, roll out TO one
half inch thick, spread with nice dried
apple sauce, roll 1t up and wrap closely
in well sealed cloth. Lay it in a
steamer over kettle OF boiling water
and steam from one 10 one and hall
hours, according TO size. Eat with any
si.uce preferred.
For rolls or dumplings | prefer cream
of tartar ami soda-one teaspoonful OF
soda TO two of cream of tartar sifted
into a scant quart of flour. A good rule
for using sour mix or butter milk for
dumplings or biscuits, Is 10 allow one
half teaspoonful of soda TO two cups
of milk. a little practice will soon
teach you to Use more or less, as the
milk is more or less sour.

DOMESTIC.

CARE OF HANps.-Ladies wi no do their
own house-work are apt. if they do not
wear gloves, to have coarse hands. Ii
they happen to dip them into water,
they do not take time enough TO dry
them well before going on with their
work. To wipe the hands perfectly dry,
after their being immersed in water, is
imperatively necessary, if they wish
their hands TO look white. To keep the
hands from chapping in cold, use a
mixture of glycerine, one ounce; SPERM
aceti, two drachms; olive oil, two
ounces. Mix together with the aid Of
heat. Apply this every night, and, If
time will admit of il, every morning.
In winter, do not wash them in cold or
hot water. Ii should be just blood
warm, and no more nor less. Do not
90 out of doors with them uncovered.
In summer, use cold water, unless the
hands perspire very much, as the hands
of some people do. These should use
tepid water. In warm weather, a good
preparation for the hands, is this: Take
half an ounce of powdered alum and
two eggs, and mix together. Then add
enough bran to make it into thick
paste. Apply this once day, after
washing, and, after rubbing the hands
well together, for a few minutes, wipe
off with a wet towel. This will give
them soft, brilliant hue, and check
any undue amount Of perspiration.
What is called cream OF roses is also an
excellent preparation for the hands
either in winter or summer. 1t is made
as follows, unless you prefer TO pur
chase it at dollar bottle:
lake compound tincture of benzoin,
half an ounce; almond and malaga oil,
of each an ounce; altar of roses, five
drops; honey two ounces; and enough
rose water TO make the mixture measure
six ounces. Apply as Often as you like.

Ashes.

The statement has been made
we have never seen it tested-that
a busll.l of unleached ashes weighs
about forty~eight or fifty pounds.
Assuming to be forty eight pounds,
a top-dressipg of twenty five bushels
to the acre gives 1900 pounds of
fertilizers. 1t is estimated that this
quantity of ashes contains about one
hundred pounds of potash, three
hundred pounds of lime, fifty pounds
of maguesia, twenty-five pounds Of
phosphoric acid, and perhaps ten
pounds of sulphuric acid. 1t will
be seen that ashes are about equal
| in value to the best commercial
guanos, containing the very elements
most needed by plants; while guano
is valuable mainly for its nitrogen
and pLosphoric acid. The ashes
supply the phosphoric acid, but con-
tains no nitrogen. This is the main
difference. The salts of ashes also
are generally rendered insoluble by
water by the action of the fire, but
can be made soluble by chemical
processes.
Ashes are good fertilizer for
anything that grows, from fruit
trees down to potatoes and garden
vegetables of every kind. AS long
as farmers can procure them at a
reasonable price it is one Of the best
fertilizers they can use. They may
be applied broadcast, in the hill or
drill, or in compost. But in CON-
posting care must be taken not to
mix them with anything containing
Ammonia, as animal manures OF any
kind. From the permaneucy OF
their effects, and the number OF
essential clements that they supply.
they form perhaps the most econo>
mical fertilizers to be had, and il
residing near town the farmer
ought to make arrangements with
the inhabitants to purchase all they
have.-Er.

Sweet Potato Plants.

Many persons have difficulty in
raising sweet potato plants. An
experienced farmer says: GAS |
have had uniform success in raising
fine plants it may not be out OF place
to give my method of laying up the
tubers : Dig out the old mold Of
your pit abont two feet deep and
fill up with fresh horse manure.
Cover the manure about three
inches deep with the mol'l that was
thrown out, and on this lay the
tubers, covering them also with mold
about two inches deep. Don't use
glass the plants don't come quite
as soon, but arc mucl harder. The
bed should be sprirkled every morn
ing with warm water and covered at
night with carpet OF mating. Care
should be taken net to let cold rains
fall on the plants.

Keeping Apples 10 Sand.

A writer in the London Garden
says that he finds fruit to keep best
in perfectly dry sand. He keeps
fruit in this way all the year round.
He has had French crabs two years
old. The Catillac pear has remained
sound twelve months. The fruit
must be sound when stored, and the
sand must be quite dry. The chief
advantages ofpacking in sand are,
the exclusion Of air currents, the
preservation from changes Of tenn
perature, and the absorption Of mois-
ture, which favors decay. Much
will depend on the apartments in
which the experiment is triei ; a
dry or cool one being best.

SIGNS OF RAIN.

There will be rain. The smoke curls

Upon the thatch oil parched and brown
The swallows, soaring late so high,
Now near the ground in circles fly.

Foretold change of weather soon;
Pale, watery beams now earthward throws
The sun, which late in glory rose.
A rainbow spann'ed the sky at dawn,
Of rain the shepherd to forewarn.
While closed the pimperneps bright fow'r,
In token of the coming shower.
There will be rain The flowers exhale
Yet sweeter perfumes on The gale,
And through the lighter atmosphere
The distant bells seem Ginning near.

Toss their leaves upward to the breeze,
And on the rivers CLASSY breast
More deep and clear the shadows rest.

How to Bud Roses.

This is a simple process by which
amateur cultivators often increase
their stock. A sharp penknife can
do duty for budding knife, and
the handle of q toothbrush, if ground
down smooth, will answer for spud
to aid in lifting the bark. From
the last Of jane to the last of Aur
gust is the best time for this process,
as, the bark can then be more easily
raised from the wood. Take a
smooth stalk and make horizontal
cut across tie bark through to the
wood, but not into it. From the
centre of this cross cut make an
other cut straight down the stem,
an inch or more in length. These
two cuts should resemble a T.
Slice off the bud you desire to
propagate with one cut of the pen"
knife, cutting it close to the main
stalk. Now, with the edge of the
spud, turn back tho bark on each
side of the straight cut and insert
the bud on tho wood Of the branch
to be budded, fitting it tightly to the
crossed cut. With a bit of soft
yarn bind down the bark, leaving
the point of the bud exposed. A
handful of dampened moss must
then be bound around the stem, taxi
ing care to leave the tiny point Of
the bud exposed to the air. In six
weeks the wrappings can be re-
moved, but oil other shoots must be
kept from growing on tho budded
branch. By this means q rosebush
can he made to bear halt q dozen
different colored roses.
