previously beaten light and milk sufh-
oient to make q tolerably thick batter.
PUREE OF PoTAToEs.-Mash them
and mix while hot with some fine white
gravy drawn from veal, together with
butter and cream. The puree should
be rather thin and seasoned with salt
and pepper. ~ ls'S' =.
FORSTER CAKE.-Haf q pound of
butter, one pound of sugar, three eggs
well beaten, one lemon or nutmeg, one
teaspoonful of soda dissolved in the
lemon, -four enough TO make a soft bat,
ter, about three pounds; roll very thin
and bake brown.
FRIED PARsNIPs.-Boil until tender
in hot water slightly salted; let them get
almost cold, scrape off the skin, and cut
in thick, long slices; dredge with -four
and fry in hot dripping, turning rs they
brown; drain very dry in a hot colan-

eight teaspoonfuls of sugar, beaten very
light, adding flavor if you like put over
a slow fire, stirring all the time until
quite thick; then have small saucers
either of glass or china and pour some
on each saucer; to be served in this
way cold; powdered almonds are very
delicious on it.
PoTAro SALAD.-Bol mealy white
potatoes; mash fine; season highly with

follows: Mash perfectly smooth, with a
little water, the hard boiled yelks of
three eggs; add half teaspoOnful of
mustard, whole teaspoonful of salt, a
saltspoonful each of celery seed and
cayenne pepper, all mixed to paste
with olive oil, or richest cream if you
are prejudiced against oil; also a table
spoonful of vinegar. Now spread the
baking-dish, and add the dressing in
spots with spoon, then another layer
of potatoes and more dressing, and so
on, ending with a layer of potatoes.
Set in the stove to brown.
CHICKEN SHORTCAKE.-Cut young
chicken in pieces, put on to boil with
small onion, n thin piece of salt pork,
and just enough cold water to cover it /;
let it simmer gently till done; then take
up the pieces of chicken. slip out the
larger bones and take off the skin; make
"A gravy of the liquor by thickening it
with corn starch dissolved in a cup of
milk; put the pieces of chicken back in
to the gravy to keep hot; half an hour
before the chicken is done take a quart
of sifted flour, a teaspoonful of salt, two
full teaspoonfuls of cream-tartar, and
one, not very full, of soda; mix all to-
gether very thoroughly, then rub in
a small cup of butter, and mix with
enough sweet milk to make it a thick
dough the same as for biscuit. Mix it
very gently with the hands without using
a roller, and bake in square bread-pan
in hot oven. Twenty minutes will be
as long as it will need to bake. When
it is done, split it open and butter it
plentifully while hot; lay the halves
with the crust downward, and upon a
fiat dish. Cover them with the chicken
and pour over all the gravy, which must
be thick enough not to run off and leave
the chicken dry. Garnish with water
crosses or parsley.

PREPARING CUTTINGS.

A great deal depends upon the
judicious selection OF cuttings: one
that is perfectly ripened and from a
vigorous shoot is the best. 1t is also
essential to have bud or joint near
the base, as the roots always strike
from il. They need not be over six
inches in length, and should be sunk
in the soil, bearing but one bud at
the surface of the ground.
A PRUDENT WAY TO BEGIN THE
SILK CULTURE.
Let community in the country
parishes-say near Baton Rouge,
Poncbatoula, Bay St. Louis, or else
where-procure cuttings or young
trees, and plant hundred or more OF
each, according TO the quantity of
land, or the means at his disposal
Unprotected from stock or woods
fires, in two or three years they will
have sufficient growth to commence
picking the young leaves. The seed
should be purchased, say one ounce
each, which will give $4,000 worms
Any Clubhouse free from draught
and good ventilation, will answer tor
a cocoonery. When the cocoons are
made, and sufficient quantity laid
aside for another years supply OF
seed, the balance might be reeled in
the central or cooperative factory,
the product of each person weighed
and all shipped in bulk TO the silk
factory.
If on the contrary a community is
too poor at first to purchase reels
and the necessary paraphernalia, the
cocoons intended tor sale should be
smothered, that is the crysallis de-
stroyed by heat and shipped i'll bulk.
The silk business is like every
thing else, and should be entered
into with a fair show of caution and
due avoidance of unnecessary ex-
pense. 1t is work which only oc
cupies about sixty days in the year,
and one that will afford remunera-
tive employment to thousands of
women, children and weak old men
and bring peace and prosperity to
hundreds of households throughout
The land.

Charcoal and It's Use.

Charcoal laid flat while cold on a
burn will cause the pain to abate.
Tainted meat, surrounded with it, is
sweetened; strown over heaps of de-
composed pelts, or over dead ami
mails, it prevents any unpleasant odor.
Foul water is purified by it. 1t
sweetens offensive air if placed in
shallow trays around apartments. 1t
is so porous that it absorbs $, and con
denses gases most rapidly. One
cubic inch OF fresh charcoal will alb
sorb nearly one hundred cubic inches
of gaseous ammonia. Charcoal forms
an unrivaled poultice for malignant
wounds and sores. In cases of what
is called "proudhesh" it is invaluable.
1t hurts no texture, Injuries no color,
and is simple and safe sweetener
and dlsinfectant.

set of vessels. The first set works at
about the pressure OF the atmosphere,

in the curing room-the syrups cans
not be made TO filter efficiently, and
that, for this reason alone, it is well
to avoid charcoal filtration. 1t is
certain that juice is degraded by
passing over large surfaces, as 1t
thereby has a tendency to get sour,
and thus TO increase the percentage
of molasses. 1t is hardly necessary
to remark that the first cost OF the
charcoal, the daily waste, and the
charges for fuel and labor in re-
burning, are serious items in the &C
count.

Things that Pay.
From the Golden Rule.

HTOMNe UOtUeN hWc.
1t pays to have garden, if you
will take care of it; if You can't or
won't, do not attempt it. If you
make garden it pays to enrich the
ground literally. Nothing from
nothing is one of natures bylaws, if
not part Of the constitution of
things. Stable manure is adequate
for nearly all purposes. The value
OF wood ashes, especially for potatoes,
peas, early beans, ETC., is also very
great. 1t pays to withhold your
seeding until your ground is dry and
can be thoroughly pulverized, partic-
ularly tor all root crops and for corn.
1t pays to sow your vegetables i'll
long rows instead OF the old fashioned
beds, and to use stakes and lines in
in planting everything that your
rows may be straight and even. 1t
pays to rotate crops from one spot IN
The garden to another. When the
ground is worn it pays to use lime.
1t pays to kill weed wherever and
as soon as You see it.

From the Tobacco journal
/ The tobacco is planted from the
seed. The soil being pulyerized and
enriched with manure, the seed is

grown to height Of eight inches, it
is set out in rows about two feet
apart when it has much the appear
ance OF corn planted in this country.
In Cuba great care has to be exercised
in guarding the seedlings from the
tobacco worm. This is the only III
sect enemy the plant has, for 1t is so
astrlr gent and bitter that nothing else
will touch it, but so destructive is
the worm, that if not looked after
closely it will in single night de-
stroy an entire plantation. As the
worm conceals itself during the day
it is customary for the planters hands
to 90 forth by night with lanterns to
destroy the pest. The tobacco haw-
ing grown until the leaves are fully
developed, the first cutting OF the
leaves take place ; these first cut
leaves are the largest and finest.
The plant is afterwards allowed TO
grow until there is second supply
OF smaller leaves, which are also cut.
The leaves as they are cut are carried
to the tobacco houses on the planta-
lions, where they are exposed 10 dry
by tue action OF the air, which pro-
cess occupies about six weeks. They
are then piled in layers, each layer
being sprinkled with a liquid called
"betun," which is a strong I've made
by soaking tobacco stalks in water.
The heap OF tobacco, or ''pllon'" as
it is called, is covered with banana
leaves and allowed TO ferment tor a
couple of weeks. This curing pro-
cess being completed, the tobacco is
selected and graded according to the
size OF the Leaf, the largest leaves and
those finest in color and quantity be-
ing used for the wrappers and the
smaller tor filling cigars.
