ITEMS FOR FIELD AND HO USE.

Do not plant trees deeper than is nee
essary to cover the roots well or than
they were planted in the nursery rows.
Never place the roots in contact with
manure.
The culture of coffee in California is
becoming profitable. The plant grows
as vigorously as in the coffee countries
of South America, and yields a bean of
strong aromatic flavor.
Brown sauces, generally speaking,
should scarcely be so thick as white
sauces; and it is we'll to bear in mind
that all those which are intended to
mask the various dishes of poultry or
meat, should be of IA sufficient consis-
tency to slightly adhere to the fowls or
joints over which they are poured. For
browning and thickening sauces, etc..
Drowned flour may be properly en-
ployed.
PROFESSOR RILEY regards the migra-
ton of insects as due to their multiply
ing more rapidly than their means of
support. The migrations of rats are
attributed to the same cause, and
similar observations have been made as
to other animals. Many insects
that are not normally of a migratory
tendency, exhibit it when pressed by
dearth of food. In these cases they col
lect together and migrate in large bodies.
To use up cold meat l. Prepare your
meat as for hash; fill deep dish with
maccaroni; on top of that place the
hash; cover it with tomatoes, over which
sprinkle with bread crumbs, with little
butter; bake until nicely Drowned. IL.
Prepare meat as for hash; make it in
rolls (ike sausage) by binding it with
raw egg; tie each roll carefully in cab
bage leaf, and boil one-half to three
quarters of an hour in weak stock.
EGGS form an important article of
food among all known races. The Eng
lish, the great egg eaters, receive an
nually from Ireland one hundred and
thirty millions of eggs, and from France
over one hundred and thirty millions.
The great object is to get fresh ones,
and many modes are resorted to, to as
certain this important point. Some
dealers place them in water, when, if
fresh, they will lie on their sides; if
bad, they stand on one end
GRAVES and sauces should be sent to
table very hot, and there is all the more
necessity for the cook to see to this
point, as, from their being usually served
in small quantities, they are more liable
to cool quickly than if they were in a
larger body Those sauces of which
cream or eggs form component part,
should be well stirred as soon as these
ingredients are added to them, and must

Tom Standish's Luck.


1t does beat all how some folks gifts
along in the world" said red-nosed
man III a crowd sitting around the stove
in a corner grocery the other night.
"Now, there's that Tom Standish, look
at him; if he amt been foliered by a
regular streak of bull-headed luck
want to know what You call it, He
come to this town without dollar in
his pocket or decent dud on his back,
but before three days he struck Job of
helpin' in a biler factory at five or six
dollars week, and by livin' the lord
knows how an pilin' the bulk of his
airnin's on his back, it wasn't four
months before you'd a. thought, by the
looks of the kid, that he was solid with
a councilman, and had as much influence
on election day as airy other chap in the
ward. | don't say as he was lazy, but
he wasn't one of the kind of fellers to
go and wake the boss up out of sound
nap to find out somethin' to do. He
wasn't even passably good-lookin', but
some how it jest seemed to come nat
ural to him to cram on style, and he had
knack of slickin' himself up, and al
ways lookin' tidy and neat as soon as he
was out of the shop, that's been more of
blessin than rich daddy would a.
been to him. In knockin' around the
world as I've done, I've noticed that the
main run of people generally is tolerable
apt to take feller's own idee of himself
for granted good deal of the time. If
he wears good clothes, and puts on airs
and carries himself with a swing as
though he was somebody, the heft of the
people will conclude that he is, and
boost him along accordin'. That's all in
the world that ever give Tom Standish
his start. He carried sail like man
with money out at interest, and itwasn't
no time at all till he had. He wasn't
what you'd call smart-not by long
shot-for when first knowed him he
hadn't sense enough to run wheelbar-
row. Tom wasn't no hand at all for en-
gineerin' or plannin', or lookin' ahead
furder'n you'd throw live hog. He
hadn't the sign of an eye for business at
all, an not the shadder of a gift for
speculatin'. In fact, he hadn't nothin'
but jest the stubbornest kind of luck
streaks thick enough to see, mighty near.
From sortin' scrap-iron in the biler
factory it wasn't no time at all till he
found himself pullin' the checks over
bang-up team as coachman in a high
toned family, and if it hadn't been for
the give-away rig they chucked him in
to, you'd a. thought he was the big bug
who owned the turnout, takin' twist at
the lines for his own amusement. He
kept his eyes and ears open and in
little while learned all the ways of the
upper crust, and he couldn't a talked
and acted any more like an oyster on
stills if he'd a. had hide full of blue
blood himself. The next / knowed
rich old cove had took great fancy to
him and had give him the job of trav-
cling all over the world with him, nigh
about, to look after his baggage, cuss the
walters and take care of him. Then the
old chap gifts into chokin' spell one

Signs,

People who still adhere to the look-at-
d-feel-of-your-pulse doctor
sometimes express not little curiosity in
regard to Dr. R. V. Pierces original method
of distinguishing all forms of chronic dis
ease without personal consultation. Some
even suppose that he accomplshes this
through clairvoyance, or some other species
of professional jugglery. All this is utterly
false He claims to determine disease by the
rational methods of science only. Says
Comley, in his Biographical Encyclopedia
of New York State, speaking of this distin-
guished physician: "He perceived that in
each of the natural sciences the investigator
proceeds according to system ofsigns. The
geologist in his cabinet accurately deter
mines and describes the cleft of rock, which
he has never seen, from the minute spec-
men on his table. And the chemistin his
laboratory notes the constituents of the sun
with the same precision that he analyses a
crystal of rock salt The analogous system
developed by DR.. Pierce in Medical Science
is worthy of his genius, and has made his
name justly celebrated" For a full expla-
nation of this ingenious system of diagnosis,

THE VALLEY MILL.

The running stream, and the busy mill,
In fancy / think hear them still;
And the old gray walls seem now in view,
Beyond the bridge that SO well knew;
But sweeter the charm that brings them near
For the friends who met by the green bank here.
The wheels and the burrs go humming round,
And fill the vale with pleasant sound,
While clear and strong on the breeze without
j catch the tones of joyous shout,
As q loving hand gives welcome there,
And my boys bright face is a balm for care.
The mill goes on, and the wagons wait,
But strangers hand is on the gate
The waters fall as they did of yore,
And the grist still stands on the oaken floor;
But the traders now who come and go,
Are none of the people we used to know.
The quaint old mill is to me thrice fair,
And my spirit loves to linRer there;
But the vision oft is dimm'd by tears,
For heavy shade on the scene appears,
For the sweet young form | see no more
With the miller's dress at the open door.
