CAUTION TO FARMERS.

Farmers in this vicinity should be
on their guard against willy gang of
sharpers who are going about seeking
whom they may devour." They have
thus far been operating south of us, but
will probably visit these parts in due
time. The swindle which they are en-
gagged in perpetrating is briefly described
as follows: A pretended agent of the
cooperative fertilizer company induces
some WELT do tiller of the soil to take
an agency for the town or county in
which he resides, and in payment of the
valuable position he is induced to give
note for $3.50, payable to his own
order, which, however, the maker is as
sured is of no value until endorsed by
him, and that such endorsement will not
be requested unless the fertilizer proves
perfectly satisfactory. Then the reverse
side of the note is presented, and the
unsuspecting farmer is prevailed upon
to sign his name to printed statement
that he is worth certain amount Of
personal and real property, and that the
said note is in full payment of every
demand between himself and the fertili.
zer company, and further that it is giver
for goods purchased of said company
AS the pretended agent has made ar
rangements with the farmer to ship the
latter quantity of fertilizer, the sigma
ture is easily secured, and then tn,
peculiarly endorsed note is negotiated a
the first favorable opportunity.-Fre

LEVEL CULTURE.

At the beginning Of farm life. in order
to learn the most improved methods /
employed first-class farmer and gar
dener, fresh from England. He persisted
in a mode of cultivation precisely the
reverse of what had been used to see
allowing the mangels and sugar beets.
the corn, the potatoes, peas, beans. GU
cumbers, melons, tomatoes, cabbages,
etc., to 60 without any billing up. The
mangels and sugar beets stood high
above the ground, the dubious parts ex-
posed to the sun, many of the mangels
falling over and growing crooked. The
part of the cucumbers above ground,
which / insisted was rather root than
stem, and should be surrounded by earth,
was left entirely exposed to the sun. l
thought the sun would parch the roots
and they would break or be injured when
the stem should fall from the upright
to a horizontal position.
The Englishman would have his way,
but agreed that | should treat some of
each sort Of plants IN my own way. So
few of all sorts were hilled up, and
fully as well worked in other respects
as his, during the season. For few
weeks mine grew as well as his, and the
cucumbers, peas, etc., obloomed as early.
After one gathering of encnmbora, paaa,
etc., and the dry season set in, mine

moist earth, at the same time in the
same field. So with the mangels. sugar

fired early in the season and succumbed
to the drought. Without this experience
if one had said that killing up growing
plants would kill them, should have

mers, deuouncing it as false and contrary
to experience because they did not per

MINISTERIAL RULES OF MORALITY
The Universalists of New Hampshire,
IN convention assembled, unanimously
resolved that "this convention disap.
proves and condemns the use of tobacco
by any one of our ministers as habit
inconsistent with the purity and temper
ance of the Gospel, which every minister
is called upon to proclaim and practice,
and that no one should be ordained a
minister of this gospel of purity and
temperance, who is addicted to this
habit"
Very few, if any, will question the
propriety of this declaration of disap-
proval. But why should not the same
rule be applied to others beside minis
tiers ? Is the use of tobacco right for
the laymen of the church and wrong for
the pastor? Should not others besides
ministers practice purity and temper
ance? Can a minister of the gospel Of
purity and temperance consistently rec
ognize as consistent members of his
church those who are addicted to habits
of impurity and intemperance? We
pause for reply.

A REFRESHING DRINK.-Great injury
is often done to the system by an indis-
criminate use of drinks when one is
heated. Ice-water is perhaps as bad as
anything, if INDUCED in to excess. Cider
and alcoholic drinks of any kind should
not be tolerated. They are not satisfy
ing, unnerve man quicker than any
thing else, and take away his appetite.
Old.fashioned root beer is very good,
but is in most localities lost art. A
refreshing drink fer the hay field is
made by boiling large handful of oat-
meal in gallon of water, and when il
is cool, adding two quarts of milk to it.
This drink not only satisfies thirst. but
also gives nourishment to the body,
which is important, these hot days, when
one becomes nearly physically pros.

TEN PERANCE IN MAINE,

~ z II Il ~
Some recent discussions concerning
the effect of prohibitory temperance leg
islation in Maine have brought out a
number of interesting statements con-
corning the prevalence of liquor-drink-
ing in that state, in the "good old times"
when the Maine Law was unknown.
The Lewiston Journal which is edited
by an ex-governor of the state, sums up
the matter by declaring that 1.-THE most
prudent and cautious statistics show
that there is not over one-tenth the
amount of liquor consumed. inhabitant
for inhabitant, that there was fifty years
ago;" and that the places where the
enforcement of the law is now most lax,
are those which show the largest pro-
portion of crime. A well-known writer
has declared that in his boyhood days
in Maine town, it was by no means an
uncommon thing for drunken men to
freeze to death on their way home; and
he has put Oh record, in striking par
agraph, one of the means then used to
return the frozen bodies to the relatives
and friends of the family" In shat
town, he says, ga drunkard has been
found across the river, frozen stark and
stiff, with his bottle at his side. An
icy rain had fallen before he was found,
which, freezing as it fell, encased the
body in a transparent armor of ice. He
$3.50 L----oil a ~ ~h..-oh and nlaced
in the lower porch. upon a board sup
ported by two benches, in order tc
be recognized. saw him lying there,
stark and stiff, like a statue of solid
glass, his jug crystalized and grasped in
his icy hand" If the pen of Victor
Hugo or the pencil of Dore had drawn
this picture, it would have been though
wildly extravagant; but here it is,
real picture of life in quiet New Eng
land town. That the exhibition of Wit
rifed men no longer has place in th,
ritual of the churches of the region il
one of the changes which have been pro
NOTED, if not wrought, by restrictive leg
islation. AS ex governor Dingley says
in the article from which we first quoted
prohibition supplements. just as tn
law against larceny supplements, mora
forces. Neither suppresses altogether
but both restrain" This seems to be
pretty general opinion in Maine itself
concerning the workings of prohibition
legislation within its borders; for bot
the state conventions of political partie
have just declared against any tampcl
ing with the existing law. And yet tn
statement will continue to be made, b
persons who are not familiar with tn
facts in the case. that "prohibitory leg
islation in Maine has broken down III
terly."-S. S. Times. FteA

and mix the latter with the whites of

mixture of these two being complete add
to them quicklime which has passed

Buttermilk is best, and sour milk the
next best for freshening beef, pork or
fish and will preserve beef for several
hours. soak salt fish eighteen hours
in buttermilk, with perhaps one quart
of water change every six hours; then
rinse, dip in -four and fry in as little
grease as possible, until we'll cooked
through and very brown. Many cooks
swim fish in grease, and do not cook
long enough. Better put in little more
pork gravy or suet when half done than
so much at first. In freshening, always
put the skin side up. so the salt can
have chance to settle to the bottom of
the dish.

LIME WATER AND ITS UsEs.-Place
piece of unslacked lime (size is inmate
rial. as the water will only take up a
certain quantity in perfectly clean
bottle and fill with cold water; keep
corked in cellar or in a cool, dark
place. 1t is ready for use in few min
utes, and the clear lime water may be
used whenever it is needed. When the
water is poured off add more; this may
be done three or four times, after which
some new lime must be used as at first.
A teaspoonful in cup of milk is rem
edy for childrens summer complaints ;
also for acidity of the stomach. When
added to milk it has no unpleasant taste,
and when put into milk that would
otherwise curdle when heated, it pre-.
vents curdllng, so that it can be used
for buildings and pies. A small guam
tity of it will prevent the turning" o.
cream and milk. 1t also sweetens anC
puri6es bottles which have contained
milk. Some add cupful to a spong,
of bread to prevent it from souring.

This week the Northwest is laughing
with a good harvest. Every day of
pleasant weather now Is worth millions
of dollars to the States of Minnesota,
Wisconsin and Michigan, where Spring
wheat is being gathered. Two or three
more favorable days will probably see
the greater part of the wheat in Min
nesota safely housed. The total crop Of
the State will be from 100000 to
100000 bushels averaging ten to ff-
teen bushels to the acre in the southern
part of the State. and fifteen to- twenty
five in the Park region, north of the
Minnesota River. 1t is believed that
three.quarters of it will grade as high
as No. L, which is unprecedented. BY
the close of the week little grain will
remain out of the stack, and the berry
is reported hard. bright and firm. The
farmers of the Northwest are jubilant.

THOROUGH COOKING.


It Is one of the most common mistakes
of tho cook to give too little time to the
cooking of meat and vegetables. She is
careless about getting them over the fire
in season, and to make up the delay,
she attempts to rush ''things" by using
a very hot fire. spelling the food by too
furious boiling or baking. Hard boiling
toughens the fiber of meat, aud spoils
the texture of vegetables, but long
steady boiling heat gradually sOftens or
makes tender the toughest fibers. Many
persons suppose that certain articles of
food do not agree with them, when the
whole difficulty arises from the imper-
feet manner in which they are prepared.
Some vegetables are thought to be es-
pecially provocative Of 6atulence, but a
more thorough cooking usually remedies
that evil. FIatulence has other causes,
as over-eating, or too great proportion
of sugar in the diet but those articles
of food which are usually associated with
the evil may be robbed Of these terrors
by more prolonged cooking. Cook dry
beans several hours, gentle but steady
simmsring-fye hours are not too many,
even after an all night soaking. Dry
peas need the same treatment. vege-
tables need more and more time as they
grow older. By spring, rutabagas need
cooking aImost'haIf day, and onions
sh0uld no hniln1 Ln..-- os.i
sify and parsnips, especially the former
need more than the twenty minutes boil
ing usually prescribed for them. r

81 have good news for those who are
waging war on the potato bug. If they
fight them constantly they will win in
the end. We have in Central Iowa done
so for the last twelve years, and last
year they were not as numerous as few
years before. This spring there are only
a few stragglers left, and they are found
principally about old potato patches
which have been cropped with potatoes
for years. In the spring of 1875
planted potatoes in the middle of a big
corn field. but the bugs we're on hand as
soon as the potatoes were up. and 1 did
not have more than half crop that
year. The bugs were all over the corn
fields, the roads, pastures, the timber,
and out on the prairie ten miles from
any house. They were all travelling
eastward, and they laid their eggs on
the weeds in the pastures and fence cor.
ners, and the tomato vines. but the DO.
tato vines were their choice. Hardly
anything came amiss as food. Our to.
matoes and potatoes really cost US fifty
cents per bushel IN time spent in pick.
ing and destroying the bugs. Many
abandoned raising potatoes, and raised
beans, squashes and turnips. Now the
bugs have migrated to the east, and W,
hope they may never return. They will
probably run their race there, and be
come of little account. Prom an Io0t
