molasses, two cups sugar, four table
spoonfuls -four, two cups water. (boiling;)
take the peel of three of the lemons, put
in cold water, set it ON the fire till it

To BONE TURKEY.-Th legs and
wings can be drawn from the body, and
the fowl being thus hAttened on a table
may be covered with the force meat and
ingredients above named, placed in equal
thickness in every part, then tightly
rolled, bound firmly together with a
tillet of broad tape, wrapped in thin
pudding cloth closely tied at both ends,
and dressed cook about an hour and
half
STEwED OYsTERs.-Take each oyster
out separately from liquid strain juice
to get out any piece of shells there may
be in it; add one point of milk to every
quart of oysters; boil milk and juice,
adding salt and pepper to taste; when
the above is boiling, put in oysters, and
when just beginning to boil, take off at
once and serve. The last direction in

To REDUCE BONES TO POWDER
Bones may be packed in layers in a pit
with fresh wood ashes, and kept moist
for two or three months, when they will
become soft, and may be reduced to
| powder easily. If there is only small
quantity, barrels may be substituted for
pit. The cheapest way of rendering
bones soluble is by treatment with sui
phuric acid. This methnd, however Is
not ssfs for persons who are not used to
wo K with this dangerous substance.
ROAST FowL.-THE GERMAN WAY.
Truss the fowl for roasting, stuff the
breast with veal stufing, and fill the
body with chestnuts boiled tender,
peeled, and roasted spit it, and put it
to roast at a brisk fire have dozen
more roasted chestnuts peeled, stew them
in pint of gravy, season it with pepper
and salt, and thicken it with piece of
butter rolled in -four; boil until 1t is
smooth, fry half dozen sausages, pour
the sauce into the dish, place the fowl in
it, and the saussges around the fowl;
garnish with slices of lemon.

Body feathers should be kept as straight
as possible and also packed in boxes
Keep all feathers perfectly dry, as wet
iea hers are unsaIeshle; for this reason
turkeys should be dry picked.
ROTATION WITH CLovER-The fo!.
lowing is the experience Of a leading
eastern agriculturist: l never grew
clover for the sole purpose OF blowing
under. 1t has always been necessary to
save it Tor hogs. My practice has been
to Sc ed heavily with clover and timothy,
so that if one failed the other would
occupy the ground. l never NOV but
once in the year and never pasture the
first year. II the land is intended for
meadow and tillage, no stock is ever
all we'd to pasture it. One great cause
of failure is pssturing the first yesr and
taking off the second crop on poor land :;
esp cially PasturiDg with cattle after
ha, ing. Another cause is allowing the
sod to grow too low. In improving land
with clover, the rule must be to break
up and seed down as often as possible.
1t should not in any case exceed two
years in grass, and if possible only one,
and only two crops of grain must be
taken off before re seeding. This is very
important. If the seed fail to grow SOW
it again in the fall and harrow in. IL
the land is pastured, it is deprived Of
protection in winter, which is worth
double the profit derived. Cattle bite
off and tread and destroy the crop at The
very time it needs the most care and
assistance. As clover plant arrives at
maturity the second year, the greatest
benefit is derived from plowing it then.
Only two crops should be taken of, foI
then the land is right side up, with rot
ted turf just where it is wanted.

To RELIEVE CHoKED Cows.-The
proceedings of the Elmira Farmers

hold the clevis in place, while my boy
passes his hand through and picks out
the apple or other obstruction. Any
boy whose hand is small enough to pass
without crowding, can easily remove
the trouble with entire safety. L have
tried to DO it myself, but my hand Is too
large. There is no difficulty or DANCE,
if the clevis is firmly held in position.
Another member said that an easy way
to bring relief is to cause the choked
animal TO jump over high bars, as high
as may be leaped with considerable ex-
ertion. It never fails to eject the Of

NEArNEss on THE FARM.-Nest-
ness Of appearaIScscuhsnces the value OF
articles which one may have for sale.
This is especially true upon the farm,
and we will venture to say that the
farmer who attends to the exterior of
things in general, such as clean stables
| and animals, clean yards and buildings,
and fences in good repair, will obtain five
to ten per cent. more for the products of
his farm than one who neglects such sim
pie matters. Ifanyone doubts the effect
of external appearance upon values in
market or elsewhere, let him try sending
butter TO market in an old weather.
beaten firkin, no matter how good the
butter or clean the vessel msy be inside.
If this does not satisfy, try some stained
or dirty eggs, or hali-plucked poultry.
Producing a good article is one thing
and selling it to advantage is quite
another, and the good salesman generally
makes the most money of the two. The
importance OF fair exterior can hardly
be over-estimatel This principle is
potent in any branch OF trade and in
every grade OF society; therefore it is too
important to be overlooked or passed
unheeded.

Our Tenure ofLire

Depends in great measure upon our regard
for or neglect of the laws OF health. If we vio-
late them we cannot expect to "make old
bones" But that the span of existence sl-
lotted TO a naturally delicate constitution, or
one which has been shaken by disease may be
materially heightened, is fact of which We
have daily proof. The vivifying and restora-
tive influence of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
upon falling physique affords striking il
lustration of she power oil judicious medica-
tion to strengthen the hold or life. Restored
digestion, complete assimilation, renewed
appetite, sound repose, these are among the
beLehts conferred upon the debilitated by
that supreme renovsnt. With a circulation
enriched, frame invizorated, and q nervous
