Household Hints.

When molasses Is used for cooking it is
an improvement to boil and skim it before
you use it. 1t destroys the unpleasant
raw taste, and makes it almost as good as
sugar.
Keep heavy stone on your pork to hold
it down. In the summer this stone is an
excellent place to keep fresh meat on when
you are afraid of its spelling.
Soap your dirtiest clothes and soak them
in warm water over night. Use hard soap
TO wash your clothes, and soft to wash your
floors. Soft soap is so slippery that it wastes
a good deal in washing clothes.
A little salt sprinkled in starch while it Is
boiling tends to prevent it from sticking; it
is likewise coed to stir it with clean sper-
mecsti candle.
A few potatoes sliced and boiling water
poured over them make an excellent prepar-
alton for cleansing and stiffening old. rusty
black silks. Green tea is also good for this
purpose.

Whatever food may be given to young
calves care should be taken that it be not
changed too suddenly. A calf must have
attained a certain degree of strength before
it can dispense with the food most natural
to its age, and thrive without the aid of
milk. This kind of nourishment should be.
therefore, continued as long as possible;

stead of milk should be partly continued
until its appetite prefers the pasture, and
while it Is in a growing, thriving condition.
Farmers do not figure like merchants. If
they did they would find that large por-
ton of their calves should be turned, as
soon as possible, into veal-the amount OF
milk consumed in raising them being of
more value than they ever will realize in
more matured shapes. IS.

Treatment Of Calves.

Good practical authority says that in the
rearing of calves very much depends on the
practice being to give them their food but
twice day. when they generally receive as
much as thsir stomachs will hold. The d.

Green Ianurinc.

The sowing, growing ard blowing into the
soil of green manures is by no means mod
ern feature of agriculture. The practice was
common among the ancient Romans, ss
their authors, who wrote long before the
Christian era prove; and Columelia and
others, also, who lived subsequently to that
period, make frequent mention of green
manuring. But it may be SAID that this
system had for centuries been included
among ''the lost arts' until the opening of
the present one, when it was restored, by
dint of Its absolute necessity, in several
of the European nations, and took
the place of the previous custom of
following. The consequences have been
extremely advantageous, for, in many Sec
tons of the British isles, the Netherlands,
aud in Germany. lands that were almost
worthless previously have been brought into
wonderful produc.iveness by green manur-
ing. Red clover, buckwheat, turnips, rye,
rape and vetches were used in localities best
suited to their growth, ssverally-turnIps,
rape and vetches being the kinds that best
suited the climate and coils of the more
northern countries, and these seem also best
adapted to our New England requirements.
which are extending yearly. Ten times the
quantity of clover and other seeds are now
used among US for green manuring, COM
pared with that required 20 years ago.

Time to Cut Hay.
New Hamnghira Patriof I

We have had the opportunity, through our
exchanges, and the perusal of State and dis
trict agricultural reports; to find many dis
cussions on the subject of the best time to
cut hay, and we give what may BE- consider
ed fair deduction of opinions therefrom
Dairymen, and such as raise young cattle of
special descriptions, almost universally
favor for their peculiar purposes, the hay
which has been cut before the seed has been
confirmed and hardened; whereas those who
own and use working cattle, such as lumber
man, insist that early-cat hay proves to them
little better than rowen or aftermath that it
has not sufficient stamina for their profta-
bic use; and, consequently. that they prefer
hay the seed of which has been allowed to
ripen, but not harden so as to be shed in
manufacturing. No one OF the controyer
sialists opposed the theory, that it is much
better to err on the safest side which they
upheld early cutting to be.
AT recent meeting of the Massachusetts,
board of agriculture, Hon. Charles l.. Flint,
who is its secretary, and an acknowled au-
thority on the subject of grasses, said, in
substance, that the practice had generally
been adopted in Massachusetts, of cutting the
hay crop a fortnight earlier than was the
custom 25 years ago; and in that respect,
there had been great gain, although it was
possible thst grass might be cut too early.
The best time to cut grass, every one would
admit, was that when it contained the most
nourishment; but when was that point?
Woody fiber was not nourishing animal
food. 1t gave bulk at the expense
of more valuable qualities. The taste
and instinct of the animal taken as proof,
early cut hay was more pslatable, more to
the taste, than late cut overripe and over
dried hay. The tender, immature grass
blade. with its young, fresh leaves was more
acceptable to animals left to exercise their
own tastes IN their pastures; for any one
could not help observing that they summed
such plants as had run up and formed flower
stalks, and made choice of the low, leafy
ones which were the most tender and juicy,
and which contribute more readily aud
effectively to nourish their system. What
is indigestible can not furnish much nour-
ishment and the best means for animal
| nourishment is what the early cutting and
curing of hay produces. elss
