a CURIOUS LAKE.-Here is what
they tell about a wonderful body OF
water in Colorado, the surface of which
is covered by a cOrnfield
In Colorado there is a ten-acr field which
is no more nor less than subterranean lake
covered with soil about eighteen inches deep.
On the soil is cultivated a field of corn, which
produces thirty or forty bushels to the acre.
If anyone will take the trouble to dig a hole
the depth of a spade handle he will find il
filed with water, and by using "a hook and
line fish four or five inches long can be
caught. The fish have neither scales nor
eyes and are perch-like in shape. The ground
is n black mari in its nature, and in all pro-
liability was at one time all open body of
water, on which was accumulated vegetable
matter, which has been increased from time
to time, until now it has a crust sufficiently
strong and rich to produce fine corn, though
it has to be cultivated by hand, as it is not
strong enough to bear the weight of horse.
While harvesting the field-hands catch great
strings of fish by punching hole through
the earth. \ person rising ON his heel and
coming down suddenly can see the growing
corn shake all around him. Any one having
! strength enough to drive rail through this
crust will find on releasing it that it will dis
appear altogether The whole section OF
country surrounding this field gives evidence
. of maTshneSs, and the least rain produces al
/ abundance of mud. But the question comes
/ up, has not this body am outlet Although
brackish, the water tastes as if fresh, and i

Ice CREAM WITHOUT A FREEZER
Beat the yolks of eight eggs very light,
and add thereto four cups of sugar and
stir well. Add to this, little by little,
one quart of rich milk that has been
heated almost to boiling, beating all the
while, then put in the whites of eight
eggs beaten to stiff froth. Then boil
the mixture in pail set inside another
containing hot water. Boil about fifteen
minutes, or until it is as thick as boil
ed custard, stirring steadily meanwhile.
Pour into a bowl to cool. When quite
cold, beat into it three pints of rich
sweet cream and five teaspoOnfuls of va
nilla or such other f1avoring as you pre-
fer Put it into a pail having close
fitting cover and pack in pounded ice
and salt-rock salt, not the common
kind. When packed, before putting the
ice on top of the cover, beat the custard
as you would batter, for five minutes
steady then put on the cover, put the
ice and salt over it and cover the whole
with thick mat, blanket or carpet, and
let it stand for an hour. Do not let the
salt get inside, or it will spoil the cream.
Carefully uncover and scrape from the
! bottom and sides of the pail the thick
/ coating of frozen custard, making every
/ particle clear; beat again hard until the
/ custard is a smooth. half CONCEALED paste
Do this thoroughly. Put on the cover
ice, salt and blanket, and leave it fOl
| five or six hours, replenishing the ice
and salt if necessary.

THINK OF IT-DRINK OF IT THEN.
IF YOU CAN.-Think of it, housekeep-

that green coffee is manipulated-paint
ed--sO as to deceive purchasers into the
idea that they are buying nice, green
berries of high grade, when in reality
they are getting only an inferior article

and iron, in the form of chromium of
lead and PTusSian blue-theSe two COM

called ''chrOme green, " Whether this in
gredient is poisonous or not-whether a
slow poison or quick poison-is not sta

reflection that, in the indulgences of our
mornings pOtations. we may be uncOn-
scious partakers of a deadly poison. With
the adulterated coffee, adulterated tea
and adulterated beer, the thirsty will be
puzzled to know what to drink.

\ D1scovERYIH GRAPE CrL.

y DISCOVERY IN GRAPE CULT URE.
a letter to the Secretary of the Ohio
Agricultural Society from w. W. Scar
borough, of WOodburn. a suburb of Gin
cinnati. says:
'I have received your favor inquiring
about the results of the new method of pro-
tectiug grapes from disease. etc, by enclos-
ing the bunches in paper bags. Hearing in
1876 that nv neighboT, Mr.. Gottlieb MYERS
had in that year tried successfully :his ex-
pertinent, early IN the summer of 1877, just
after blossoming had been accomplished and
the young grapes fully set, I enclosed in pa
per bags $500 lunches chiefly Conco-ds and
Catawbas, and some few bunches of Della
ware, Iona and Isibella, and gathered in the
fall 2,4J0 lunches therefrom of perfect and
magnificent fruit. OF the fruit that year
not bagged there were probably oue-half de-
stroyed by rot, with a further loss by mil
dew, birds and insects.
"Tbis year had Z 500 lunches inclosed in
bags, with substantially the same result TO
the kinds or varieties of grapes before men,
toned. Some 200 bunches of the Hartford
Prolific variety did not do as we'll as the 9TH
er varieties. There was less rot this year in
our open vineyards than for many years
past, but yet there was disease, although
diminished, and the same loss by birds and
insects to the unprotected punches, whic.
have heretofore existed.
''The bag used is the common paper past
ed bag used BY the grOcers, made of yellow
Manila paper, aud six inches wide, by nine
inches long or deep, and fastened 10 the
bunch by two or three pins. These bags (ol
most of them) if made of good quality oi
paper will last for two years use, as will the
pins also be good for the second years use
if of good quality.
"The quality of the fruit is improved by
its isolation in the bag-ii is richer in sac
charine matter, and of higher flavor. The
cost of bags, pins and labor is about one
! third of cent per bag on the small scale o
my experiments. The result or the expert
ments has confirmed the theory which
have held, that the rot is caused by tu,
/ puncture of the grape by some minute insec
/ just at the time when it becomes of full siz
and when covered by the night dew or tn,
moisture of foggy night or morning.
