CARE OF HARNESS.

Though the harness is an article of every
day use, there are few who know how to care
for it, so as to insure its durability, and to
keep it looking clean and neat A harness
that has been on horses back several hours
in hot or rainy weather becomes wet, and if
not properly cleaned, the damage to the leath.
er is irreparable. If, after being taken from
the horse in this condition, it is hung up in
a careless manner, traces and reins twisted
into knots, the saddle and bride hung askew,
the leather, when dried, retains the shape
given it while wet, and when forced to the
originahform damage is done to the stitching
and the leather Those who use the harness
are not altogether in fault for this they
would take care of it if they knew the extent
of damage that would result from their care
lessness, and that they do not is the fault OF
the manufacturer. 1t is mistaken policy
that leads the manufacturer of any line of
goods to neglect needed information to the
buyer. Every harness manufacturer would
study his own interests by accompanying each
set of harness sold with printed rules for pre-
serving the same. The first point to be OBJ
served is to keep the leather soft and pliable ;
this can be done only by keeping it we'll
charged with oil and grease; water is des'
troyer of these, but mud aud the saline moist
ure from the animal are even more destruc.
tive. Mud in drying absorbs the grease and
opens the pores of the leather, making it a
ready prey to water, while the salty character
of the perspiration from the animal Injuries
the leather, stitching and mountings. 1t
therefore follows that to preserve harness,
the straps should be washed and oiled when
ever it has been moistened by sweat or soiled
by mud. To do this efectually the straps
should all be unbuckled and detached, then
washed with a little water and crown soap,
then coated with mixture of neatsfoot oil
and tallow, and be allowed to remain undis'
turbed until the water has dried out; then,
thoroughly rubbed with woolen rag; the
rubbing is important, as it, in addition to re-
moving the surplus oil and grease, tends to
close the pores and give finish to the leath'
er. In hanging harness, care should be taken
to allow all the straps to hang their iull length;
brides, pads, gig saddles, and collars should
be hung upon forms of the shape of each.
Light is essential in the care Of leather, and
when the harness closet is dark, the door
should be left open at least half of the time
during each day. AL closets should be ven:
tilated, and when possible they should be we'll
lighted. To clean plated mountings use a
chamoise with little tripoli or rotten stone,
but they should be secured as little as possible
Rubber covered goods are cleaned in the same
way. Leather covered nseds to be we'll
brushed and rubbed with woolen rag. If a
harness is thoroughly cleaned twice year,
and when unduly exposed, treated as we have
recommended, the leather will retain its soft
ness and strength for many years.-Harness

SHE SEwED ON HIS BUrroNs-Old Blum
mer is tight listed. Several days ago he said
to his wife, "Maria, want you to look over
that broadcloth vest of mine and put new
buttons on it, cause I'm going to card par

That evening Blummer hurried through
his supper and began arraying himself for
the card d-party. Presently he called for the
broadcloth vest, and Mrs. b., with marvel
Gus promptitude, handed it to him. He
took it, hastily unfolded it, and then, as his
eye took in its complete appearance, he stood

and there were six buttons on it, and the

To FREsHEN SALT FrsH.-Many persons
who are in the habit of freshening mackerel,
or other salt fish, never dream that there is
right way and wrong way to do it. Any
person who has seen the process Of evapora.
tion going on at any salt works, knows that
the salt falls to the bottom. Just 80 it is in
the pan where your mackerel lies soaking !;
and, as it lies with the skin side 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 freshened as it should be. In the
other case it is nearly as salt as when put in.

PLANTING GRAPE V1NEs-One would
suppose that so simple thing as planting a
grape vine would not need writing about; and
yet the number of people inquiring, "How
shall we plant?" is so great that few words
to these inquirers may we'll be pardoned by
those who think they already know enough
about the matter. The rule is to plant the
roots shallow. Ifthey are long when we have
to transplant them, instead of setting them
deep we lay them along about four or five
inches beneath the surface. 1t is, of course,
very necessary to press the soil hard and firm
over the roots, that is, if the earth is tolera-
bly dry, though in truth no vine should be
planted except the earth is in good condition.
It's very useful in planting grape vine to
cut it closely iii. Unless the last years
growth le very vigorous it may be almost all
cut away; and even where this growth is
strong, one half may be cut away. This is
the way to get good strong cane for bearing
next year, which is the most that one ought to
expect a vine to do. "Immediate bearing" is
delusion and a snare. Many person
spends a dollar or half dollar extra on a
vine which he is told by the seller will "bear
this year." when for that amount of money he
could buy treble the quantity of grapes it
will bear for him, even if it bears at all.
Still we like TO plant good, strong, healthy
vines. The little crow quilts, which come out
as rare grapes at high prices, seldom give
much satisfaction. Indeed, it is more than
likely that the immense failures which gener-
ally follow all these introductions are as much
owing to the way their propagation is forced,
as to any inability in the varieties to become
adapted to soils and climates.-Germanto'0n

"The man to whom I was recommended

"Well, upon my word, you two brothers

habit of occasionally drinking to excess
sometimes to intoxication."
"My dear man, that little vice is unfortu.

doubt if our best friends could tell you which
was the worst"
