BLACK LEG IN CALVES. To prevent
1t, give sulphur and molasses, and
feed no meal. To reduce the condition
gradually is an effective preventive.
Medicines come too late in this disease,
which is almost surely fatal at this
season.
ROYAL CREAM.-One quart of milk,
one-third of box of gelatine, four ia
blespoQnfuls of sugar, three eggs,
vanilla; put the gelatine into the milk,
and let il stand half an hour; beat the
yelks well with the sugar, and stir into
the milk; set the kettle into pan of
hot water, and stir until it begins to
thicken like soft custard. aa.. -....
MUSTARD RELIsH.-Beat the yelks of
two eggs; stir into this three table
blespoonful of black pepper, one-half
also of sugar, half-cup of sharp vine
gar; beat all well together and cook un-
til the consistency of custard. If not
thick enough, add more mustard; if
too thick add vinegar. This is nice
relish for any kind of meat.
You must understand there is right
and q wrong way to do 1t. Anyone
who has ever seen the process of
evaporating going on at salt works
knows that the salt falls to the bottom.
just SO it is in the pan where your salt
fish lies soaking, and as it lies skin
down, the salt will fall to the skin, and
there remain; when, if placed with the
flesh side down, the salt falls to the
bottom of the pan, and the fish comes
out properly freshened.
CHOCOLATE PIEs.-Cup of butter, two
of sugar, one of milk, four of -four. q
spoonful of cream of tartar, half q
spoonful of saleratus, four eggs and
nutmeg. Beat the butter light, then
add the sugar gradually. beating until
it is a cream, and then add the eggs
and milk; mix and stir in the -four, in
which the saleratus and cream of tar
tar have been mixed; bake fifty min
utes. To make the filling, use one
square of chocolate, cup of sugar, yelks
of two eggs, third of a cup Of boiling
milk; mix the scraped chocolate and
sugar together, and then add, slowly,
the milk and eggs. simmering about
ten minutes. This must be perfectly
cold before using.
To on SHEErING.-Procure q suffi-
cient quantity of boiled oil. Have the
garment made and complete; dip it
in the oil and thoroughly saturate it.
Wiring out as much of the oil as you
can; then hang out to dry. As soon as
dry, give the article another coat of oil;
let it dry and it will be waterproof;
but, after being worn awhile, will need
another coat Of oil. The above is the
method pursued by the fishermen on
the banks of Newfoundland. The gar
ments should be made double thick
ness and must not be rolled or packed
by themselves, as they are liable to gen.
crate spontaneous combustion.
To MAKE THE CELEBRATED ENGLISH
PORK PIEs.-Take fourteen pounds of
nicely-sifted -four; make hole in mid
die of -four; take four and half pounds
of lard, one quart of water; put over
the fire; let them scald, but not boil;
stir into the -four until all is nicely
mixed without Jumps or dry flour.
When cool enough to be worked with
the hands take q piece of dough, say
about three-quarters of pound, roll
into q smooth ball; insert the thumb
into the ball, work it around with the
thumb and fingers until you can get in
the tips of the fingers; then work it or
smooth it to the back of the hand until
it is q mold, round or oval about six
inches on the bottom, and pour on top.
Be careful to have the crust all of one
thickness; have ready nice tender pork,
cut in small dice-like pieces, season
with salt and pepper, as for sausage.
fill the crust mold within one inch from
the top, put on upper crust cut smooth
ly around, bake in q moderate oven one
hour. or until the meat will be cooked
thoroughly; to be eaten cold.
NOTHING is easier than to spoil the
appetite, to make the animal fretful
and restless, and to put a stop to all
improvement, by the mere irregularity
of feeding. A beast fed to-day at six
o'clock, tomorrow at seven. and the
next day at eight, will fret each sue
cessive day from the time of his former
feed to that of the present days. Soon
he falls into restless habit, as he never
knows when his ration is to be ex-
pected, and anxiety destroys thrift.
Nor is it the mental turmoil alone that
forbids Improvement; the stomach fails
to adapt itself to the uncertain supply,
and q quantity of partially -digested
food is thrown upon the bowels for the
support of an economy whose wants
have been materially increased. The
feeding of stock should never be made
subsidiary to other werk-a thing to be
attended to at any time when other du-
ties have been disposed of. 1nanimate
objects can better afford to wait than
can the living and often acutely sensi-
tive live stock, and he who fails to re-
alize this will ever fail in securing q
full return from this species of prop
