HARDY WINDOW PLANTs.-The Phila-
delphia Ledger says: "There re is no
question more difficult to answer than
as to the best plants for window culture,
for so much depends on the skill or ex-
perience of the cultivator. Some growers
will make things thrive that others fail
utterly with; for some plants require
nice care, while others thrive even under
neglect. We give list of plants that
do not mind trifing checks. The
various classes of geranium, such as the
common Zonales, rose, and other scented
leaved, ivy leaved, and the common
Lady Washington. Some of the harder
kinds of dwarf roses, as Bengals and
Bourbons, Chinese primroses, cyclamens,
and the various kinds of Solanum, as
the Jerusalem cherry, for instance, do
very we'll. If there be a chance to trail
from the boxes, the Kenilworth ivy,
mignonette and the petunia will thrive,
and if the trailing be in partial shade,
the parlor ivy, moneyworth, spiderwort,
or running saxifrage, will be found very
useful and easily managed. If the boxes
are in partial shade, palms, ferns. and
some of the variegated-leaved begonia'
will do we'll. If one becomes very sue
cessful with these easily grown plants
and become ambitious of floral success
there may be choicer plants experiment
ed with"

ROSES.

To raise roses in perfection, it is need
full to feed them we'll and place them in
the full sunlight; and not where they
will be shaded by trees or shrubs After
they have bloomed prune them closely,
and also when they commence to leaf
in the early spring. The beds in which
they are planted must be made very rich
with well-decomposed compost, dug to
the depth of at least two feet. In max
ing rose bed, it is good plan to take
off the soil for too or three feet in depth
and fill the cavity with good ordurc we'll
rotted. Then add six inches or foot
of very rich soil with mixture of sand.
After the plants are set, mulch them
with long litter from the stable. This
will keep the roots moist and cool during
the heated term, and make a healthy
growth of branches and flowers.
After the June towering has passed,
all monthly roses should be severely
pruned and the new growth cut back
two or more inches; also the old branches
should be cut away. The handsomest
flowers always spring from fresh growth
| from the roots; and to make these start
vigorously the knife must be freely used.
For few weeks, your pets may seem
shorn of their glory, but soon they will
renew their beauty and give you plenty
of flowers; while, if you permit the
seed-buds to form. it will stop the bios
soming in great degree. Therefore,
as each rose fades, cut it off, or, better
yet, cut it while in its bloom.
From the brances which are pruned
new plants can be raised. AS a rule. all
cuttings should be taken off just below a
bud or joint; and they should be select
ed from young growth rather than from
the old where the bark has become
hardened. Try to snap the branch. If
1t bends without breaking it is too old
to grow easily; but if it snaps off at
once it is in the right condition to strike
root quickly. Leave one or two buds
above the bottom one, and trim off two
or more of the lower leaves, as they
will wilt easily and thus injure the
cutting.
Clear sand kept very moist is the best
soil in which to strike cuttings, and
they can be placed in a pot only an inch
apart, and put up in the shade for a few
days. Warmth, an even temperature
and moisture, are essential or root
growth. 1t will take from three to fou
weeks to develop the roots, and then tn
plants can be placed in rich soil with ;
little sand to Tighten it, and soon the.
will be good, stocky plants. Flora

WHAT DOES A POUND OF
BUTTER COST?

What dairyman can give precise
answer to this question? and if we
should put it in this way. what ought a
pound of butter to cost? we should pre-
sent poser not only to dairymen, but
to all the agricultural experiment stations
now existing and in embryo. But these
are very pertinent questions, because it
is in the choice and use of the feed that
profit or loss lies, and who can say
which food, and which method of feed
ing it, Produces the most favorable re-
suits. l have been feeding cows expert
mentally for years, and, although I
have made up my mind which foods and
which methods are best for me, l could
not say positively that one or the other
would be best for another dairyman.
The most costly food for COW is hay
and corn meal and wheat middlings.
With hay at one cent a pound, and corn
and middlings at one and one-quarter
cents, it will cost to keep COW fifteen
cents for hay, and seven and one-half
cents for grain, per day-in all, twenty
two and one-half cents. A COW that
will make $50 pounds of butter year
will cost at least $50. She will repay
her own cost in calves and her carcass
when twelve years old; so that to pay
for her feed will cost $8l yearly if it is
purchased, and if it is provided by the
farm, it comes to the same end, for the
feed might be sold and against this
there are ESQ pounds of butter. worth at
the market price for the best quality,
$50 net. Now, what should this butter
cost? If cow is is at pasture for six
months of the year, the pasture will be
worth, at $50 to the acre for the land
and four acres to the COW, in interest
alone, $40; taxes will add at least
two dollars more to that, and the cost
of the grass will be at least two dollars
: to the acre more; so that, with the win
ter feeding, the cost IN all will be $3.50
and the skinned milk and manure MAJ
pay for the labor. Then, can pounC
t of butter be made for less than twenty
i five cents i? and If not, the dairyman i
not likely to be troubled about the higl

To BAKE HAM.-Unless when too salt,
from not being sufficiently soaked, ham
(partictlarly a young and fresh one) eats
much better baked than boiled, and re-
mains longer good. The safer plan is
to lay it into plenty of cold water over
night. The following day soak it for an
hour or more in warm water, wash it
delicately clean, trim smoothly off all
rusty parts, and lay it with the rind
downwards in a coarse paste, rolled to
about an inch thick; moisten the edges,
draw and pinch them together, and fold
them over on the upper side of the ham,
taking care to close them so that no
gravy can escape. Send it to a we'll
| heated but not fierce oven. A very
small ham will require three hours bak-
ing, and a large one five. The crust
and skin must be removed while it is
hot. When only part of a ham is dressed
it is far better than boiling it.

WHY 1T PAYS TO READ.-One's phys
ical frame-his body, his muscles, his
feet, his hands-is only living ma
chine. 1t is his mind, controlling and
directing that machine, that gives it
power and efficacy. The successful use
of the body depends wholly upon the
mind-upon its ability to direct the
will. If one ties his arm in a sling it
becomes weak and finally powerless.
Keep it in active exercise. and it ac-
quires vigor and strength, and is disci-
plined to use this strength as desired,
just as ones mind, by active exercise in
thinking, reasoning, studying and OBJ
serving, acquires vigor, strength, power
of concentration and direction. Plainly,
then, the man who exercises his mind
in reading and thinking gives it greater
power and efficiency, and greater ability
to direct the efforts of the physical frame
his work-to better results than he
can who merely or mainly uses his
muscles. If man reads book or
paper, even one he knows to be errone.
Gus, it helps him by the effort to combat
the errors. The combat invigorates his
mind.
Of all men, the farmer, the cultivator
needs to read more to strengthen his
reasoning powers, so that they will help
out and make more effective his hard toll

To PREVENT LAMP CHIMMEYs CRACK
1NG.-A leipsic journal, which makes
speciality of matters relating to glass,
gives method which it asserts will
prevent chimneys from cracking. The
treatment will not only render lamp
chimueys, tumblers and like articles
more durable, but may be applied with
advantage to crockery, stoneware, porce-
lain, etc. The chimneys, tumblers, etc.
are put into pot filled with cold water,
to which some common table salt has
been added. The water is we'll boiled
over FIRE, and then allowed to cool
slowly. When the articles are taken
out and washed, they will be found to
resist afterward any sudden changes Of
temperature. The process is simply one
of annealing. and the slower the cooling
part of it is conducted the more effective
will be the work.

SELECTION OF SEED.

This is very important matter and
should be attended to in season, before
wanted for use. Pure clean seed is very
desirable, and the best results cannot be
obtained unless this is provided. 1t is
poor policy to SOW wheat that is badly
mixed with oats or foul seeds. There
are tanning mills that will separate
these foreign seeds from the wheat. or if
these are not available, strong brine
can be made into which the wheat should
be put, a small quantity at time, and
we'll stirred when the oats and light and
imperfect grains of wheat will rise to the
surface and can he skinned off. The
wheat will then be very clean and should
be dried with slaked lime or plaster be-
fore being sown. 1t is probable that
this mixture of salt, lime and plaster
will be of use to the seed, stimulating
its growth and preventing in some degree
the ravages of insects.
A frequent change of seed will be Of
advantage, if the same variety a change
of soil and location will be found of
benefit. 1t has been suggested that
changing seed grown on light or poor
soil to one that is richer will produce
better results than the opposite practice.
Oats are not SO generally apt to be mix
ed with other seeds as wheat, but run
ming through good mill will be of use.
as the seed would be made cleaner,
while the light and imperfect grains
would be blown out. Where only clean,
sound seed is sown the quantity needed
can be more easily determined, besides
the growth will be stronger and more
even than when small and inferior seed
is sown. Unless considerable care is
taken in the selection and preparation of
seed of different kinds, deterioration will
quickly and surely follow. There is
not so much trouble in this respect with
corn as with wheat and oats, or potatoes.
Of this but small quantity is required
for an acre, while the seed can be much
more easily selected and cared for.
What has been said will apply to all
seeds for the farm and garden. Perhaps
it would be we'll for farmers to expert
ment on small scale with new kinds o.
seeds that promise well, as with present
mail facilities this can be done at little
expense and may be of much benefit
t but this should not extend to every nov
city that is advertised for sale.
There is no doubt that we could i'm
prove our yield of potatoes by more atten
-. ton in this direction. Too much o
. small and inferior seed is planted TIL
t continued practice of this cannot blu
. result unfavorably. The crop will par
e take in a measure of the character Q
4 the seed, and the yield will grow les
e while the product will become imperfect

CURRY THE Cows.-The cows are
shedding their coats, and should be
carded occasionally now. This will
greatly promote their comfort and be an
advantage in preventing the COW from
swallowing hair in licking herself.
Sometimes hair thus swallowed forms a
round hard ball and kills the animal by
stopping in some part of the alimentary
canal These things are not very COM
mon, but they occur. and to prevent
their occurrence, the card should be used,
and thus remove the loose hair.
