Pear Blight.

II is generally conceded that pear
blight is caused by Il minute fungus
which developcs in the bark and pene-
trates inwardly, destroying the cell struc-
ture as it proceeds. Trees should be
washed annually with pure linseed oil,
sulphur wash or Others things that will
kill a fungoid spore without injury to
the bark.
Sometimes pears crack. AS remedy,
dissolve copperas in water and sprinkle
the solution freely around the roots OF
the trees II willnot only prevent the
fruit from cracking butt it will increas,
the vigor of the tree.

In getting ready for spring vegetables,
remember they require rich food, and
you must put on the manure. A rank,
rich growth is what makes vegetables
tender, and they cannot have isgrowth
without n rich soil, Deep soil is also
necessary. Asparagus beds may have
the soil slightly raked from them it al
lows the sun to get to the roots earlier,
and the crop is forwarded thereby. If
the bed is poor dress it with guano or
superphosphatc. Poor ground will not
make asparagus.

ALETTER OF an Old Flemish traveller,
Cocks, has been unearthed, telling of
Luther's passion for music. . On visit
ing him at Wittenberg he observed
flute and guitar in the room, pointing
to which his host said: "When / am
weary of writing, when my brain grows
heavy, or when the devil comes to play
me one of his tricks, 1 take my flute and
play an air, wherein my ideas return
fresh as a flower dipped in water, the
devil takes fight, and I renew my work
with fresh ardOr." Then Luther drank
to the musicians of Flanders, especially
joaquin, saying: joaquin governs the
notes. The others are governed by
them. I do not love those who do not
love music. No preacher ought to
mount the pulpit until he has learned
his sol f."

TO COOK YOUNG AND OLD birds

Old pou try may be made tender and
savory by the following method: Soak
it in cold water with handful or two of
ashes thrown in for twcnty-four hours;
pick off the feathers ard let it hang TOR
twenty-four hours longer. Then LET it
boil for quarter of an hour in veal
broth or water; take it ont, lard snd
bake it; when neatly done haste with
hot butter. By this method the flavor
of young chicken may be impaired to
an old fowl. Poultry of all kinds
requires thorough cooking, as when I'M
derdone it is tasteless. A turkey weigh
ing eight pounds should be baked three
hours and basted every ten or fifteen
minutes with its own drippings and with
melted butter. If proper care is taken
in dressing poultry it will not need wash
ing A wet cloth may be used to wipe
it clean if necessary, but soaking it in
water takes out the flavor. Young
poultry may be known by having smooth
legs and supple feet. If the legs are
rouah and the feet are stiff, the poultry
is solder stale 8 &FSFS

worry or sweet majoram. To this force
meat chestnuts may be added. They are
put over the fire in a sauce pan to burst
the skins, then boiled in salt water. Or,
whole oysters, well seasoned, may be
added to the stuffing. Truffles are also
used. A couple of eggs added to any
stufling improves it. Boiled, mashed and
seasoned Irish or sweet potatoes are also
used for turkey stuffing. When stuffed,
tie it in shape, lard the top or lay slices
of bacon over it, wet the skin and sprin-

Have the oven not very hot till the tur-

At sea. ON board the Ethiopia, Sept. A
week ago to-day, left Glasgow in the rain.
Il raned when we landed there in July, and
rsined when We lett. The weeping skies
wept not for us. but because il is their habit
to do so. We went down TO Greenock by
the cars but il did seem rather disagreeablc
lighter by which we had 10 go aboard the
steamer, so that even the ladies and the bag
gage got wetting. We steamed across the
Irish Chsrnel in the night. and were of Mo-
vile on the coast of ireland in the morning.
Here q large number of >teerage passengers
came aboard. The sea began to grow rough,
and continued so for several days. Most of
the passengers were sick. | kept my berth
three or four days before l began to crawl
out. ard go to the table for meals. Yester-
lay and to-day, the ocean has been quite
smooth. but it rains still
Sept. 5.-This is one Of the most lovely
September days ever seen. The sun shines
brightly. the air is invigorating and inspi,-
smooth, the wind is fair, and the sails set to
catch the breeze, and watt us towards home
and shore. Children are playing and racing
on the hurricane deck. Some of the pas
sepgers sit there reading. Others chatting.
Some are walking the deck, breathing in the
fresh, sweet air. 1t is pleasure to look
abroad on the wide expanse. and see nothing
but sea and skv On the deck below. some
are loungng in steamer chairs or reading
books; while several are playing shuttle
board. a favorite game at sea, and others are
pitching ring quoits. There are number of
children, some very Young, amongst tie
cabin passengers. They appearto enjoy life,
most of the time, as well as they would at
home.
Most of the cabin passengers are tourists,
but few of them belong to the Touriee Party,
and none to our little section 3, There are
some of section 3, who have been to Italy.
They had pleasant weather, warm days but
cool nights. On the water question, some
who were not teetotalers drank water all
along, and experienced no harm; some tried
wine, but found il disagreeablc, and preferred
water. At Rome the water was excellent,
brought by an aqueduct from distant noun
tains, and very pure and palatable. The
hotel keepers and their allies keep up the cry
of poisonous water, and pass their wine lists
around the table, but this does not render the
water less wholesome. In Italy they charged
n franc tor little dish of ice. which was
more like snow than ice, and dirty at that.
During the day ship in full sail ras Wis.,

ward. She was bound on like course with
the steamer. TWAS a fine spectacle, and our
passengers were much interested. But we
soon left her behind us.

STEAMER FARE.

The table presents n lively scene. There
are some l50 passengers. most of whom come
to the table three times day, and some
four. Breakfast is served between and o in
the morning, luncheon at !, dinner at 6, and
tea at in the evening There is great
abundance and variety Of food. The cooking
is not always perfect. but if you do not like
one dish you can have another. Coffee and
tea are not a success, and water Mt sea does
not improve with age. Ice is not furnished
for some unknown reason. There are many
odd dishes as well as common ones. Dat
meal poridee, with milk and sugar, is a fa-
vorite at breakfast, and is palatable rs well
as wholesome. Irish stew seems to be stewed
potatoes favored with onions, and with u
outlet or slice Of steak is agreeable At din
Der. after the meal has been served, various
kinds of puddngs are placed on the table,
such as sago, tapioca. rice and cabinet pud-
dings. These are followed by apple and
rhubarb tarts as they call them, being a sort
of pies made in deep dishes, with upper and
under crusts. Near me were seated four or
five New Workers, who apparently considered
il genteel to grumbe and find fault at every
meal with the cooking and serving. This
did not, however, prevent their eating their
full share.
STrERAcI PAssAScTRs.
There are 100 steerage passengers, more or
less. Of all ages and sizes, including several
babies and children. They sit and sun
. themselves on their end of the deck The
girls amongst them spend their time in read
ing novels, very much like many Of the young
ladies at our end Of the boat, and seem to be
; as much absorbed in their books, the one az
the other.
There is a library in the music room, to
! which the cabin passengers have access. 1t
consists mostly Of novels and poetry.
SATURDAY EVENING.
| The passengers had this evening a serio-
comic entertainment, which was got up and
carried out in good style. There were some
readings, well selected and well read, both
by ladies and gentlemen. Several songs
were sung, mostly by gentlemen, largely
comic and very amusing. One Of the songs,
