When you get lime in your eye,
when plastering or withdrawing,
wash the eye with vinegar. 1t is said
to be the best thing ever tried to save
the eye from injury. Dilute strong

For durable whitewash, take a
barrel and slack a biIshel of fresh
lime in it by covering the lime with
boiling water. After it has slacken-
ed, add cold water enough to bring
it to the consistency of good white
wash, then dissolve in water and add
one pound of white vitriol and one

HOUSE, FARM AND FiRESIDE.

How TO TELL COOP BUTTER.--The
Legislature of Ohio has passed bill
providing for the inspection of but
ter and cheese, and "all substances
having the semblance Of butter and
cheese" and of diaries and other
places where milk is sold or butter
or cheese man ufactured; to be done
by inspectors appointed by the State
Board Of Health. The superintend-
ent of inspectors of butter and cheese
MIR. Robert Orr, has issued cir
cular of instruction to his subordi-
mates giving information which may
be of value to butter makers and
buyers generally. He says:
when butter is properly churned,
both as to time and temperature, it
becomes firm with very little working
and is tenacious; but its most desir-
able state is that of waxy, when it is
easily moulded into any shape, and
drawn out considerable length with
out breaking. 1t is then styled gilt
edged. 1t is only in this state that
butter possesses that rich nutty fla
vor and smell, shows up rich golden
color, which imparts so high degree
of pleasure in eating it, and which
increases it's value manifold.
at Is not always necessary when
it smells fresh and sweet, to taste
butter in Judging it. The smooth,
hnctuous feel in rubbing a little be-
tween the finger and thumb expresses
at once its rich quality; the nutty
smell and rich aroma indicate sim
liar taste; and the bright, glistening
cream colored surface shows its high
state Of cleanliness. 1t may be nee
essary at times to use the trier, or
even use it until you become an ex-
pert in testing by taste, smell and
rubbing"

MILK is a perfect food, and the
only perfect food that exists. 1t con-
tains all the elements that enter into
the human body. Should man at
tempt to live on bread alone, or flesh
alone, or fat or vegetables, he would
sooner or later starve, through lack
in these articles of diet of some one or
more of the properties that are
necessary to the nutriment of the hui
man body. But on milk alone most
persons can live thrive and grow.

The HORSE TO BREED.--A cores
pendent of the western Rural has
the following to say about breeding
horses: "Why do not farmers pay
more attention to horse breeding2
Some, and / am inclined to think
most of them, do not care to breed
their best mares, but keep one or
more old, and very often blind ones
to breed from, because they do not
cost as much; but this is shame
for blind mares are almost sure to
have colts which go blind at an early
age. Select good sound mares and
breed to good stations if they do
cost ten or fifteen dollars more than
a common scrub, and you will have
a colt to be proud of If you want
light carriage horses breed mares Of
about ten or eleven hundred, of good
style to Arabian or English thorough
breds which weigh from eleven TO
twelve hundred. If breeding for any
other purpose, breed good heavy
mares to some full blood stallion; the
hest are among the Normans, Clydes
and English draft horses. Take
which you fancy most. Never breed
to a vicious brute Of stallion, or a
mare; if you do, the colt will be dan
gerous. In selecting a stallion, take
one of proud bearing, with lean
head, open nostrils, full lustrous eyes,
wide between eyes, light neck, well
arched, short back, but long under,
broad hips, fat lean legs well muscled,
good round hoofs, (the harder the
the better; soft skin. fiue hair not
too long, and you will have the ideal
horse.

ORANGE CULTURE IN FLORIDA
Orange trees are set out in rows us
ually from twenty-five to thirty feet
apart each way, and when budded
commence bearing in four years, seed
lings in from seven to ten years.
They require light cultivation two
or three times q year, either with the
hoe, harrow or small turning pillow
drawn by one horse or mule.
To fertilize it is customary to raise
several crops of corn peas each year
and plow under the vines, which have
an influence similar to our clover.
The rich hammock land needs no fer
tilizing to grow the orange or lemon,
but many persons raise vegetables
between the trees until they COM
mence bearing. In this case it be-
comes necessary to use commercial
fertilizers. In this way, by close at
tention, intelligence and industry,
which every business requires, there
may be realized from each acre in
vegetables from 800 to $500 per
year. When the orange tree is of
full bearing age and well cared for,
each years crop is worth 81 900 per
acre, about equal to fifty acres of
wheat. l have heard of some groves
exceeding this; for instance the Spurs
Grove near Lake Monroe, of four and
one-half acres, yielded few years
since, as am informed, seven thou
sand five hundred dollars, and Col.
Harris fine grove of about seven acres
near Palatka, yields an annual income
of from ten to twelve thousand-a
nice income. Uncleaned lands are
worth from IS to $50 an acre, accord
ing to quality and proximity to towns
and transportation, and those that
are desirable are being rapidly taken
up as there is an immense influx of
population and capital, especially of
our northern friends, who usually
have the faculty of putting their
money where it will do the most good
Budded trees cost from $25 to 500
per hundred. To clear the ground
costs from $40 to $40 per acre, and
fencing from S. to $40 per acre.
An grange grove of full bearing
age, and in a fancy location, and
having good water protection, which
some think important, sells for $1,000
to $4,000 per acre, and even at this
price yields good interest on the
money invested.
l have endeavored to give the i'm
portant facts truthfully. Want OF
experience and limited observation
may have led me into inaccuracies
| have no hesitation in saying l be
lieve that an intelligent, industrious
and patient man may in ten or twelve
years, in Florida, make almost to 6
certainty, fortune of from $4,000
to 100000. This appears incredi
BILE, but l think it is true and know
it has been DONE Florida Letter.

Of lemon juice and sugar will always
relieve cough.
To relieve asthma, soak blotting
or tissue paper in strong saltpeter
water. Dry and burn at night in the
bedroom.
To remove proud flesh, pulyerize
loaf sugar very fine and apply it to
the part affected. This is new and
easy remedy, and is said to remove
it without pain; burnt alum pulver
lied and applied is an old and rcia-
bic remedy.
Summer weather entails small
plague of flies and insects and it is
therefore well to remember that the
prompt application of an alkali to the
bitten part allays the irritation and
commonly at once relieves the suf-
fering consequent on a class of inju-
ries which though small, are often ex-
ceedingly annoying and even trouble
some, especially in the case of chill
dren and persons with sensitive skins.
Soda and ammonia will answer the
purpose.
Advice to invalids Good diges-
ton depends largely upon mental
conditions and influences. Hence it
is of great Importance that pleasant,
healthful topics of conversation be
chosen at the table. The discussion
of diseases ut meals is especially
harmful and annoying; it is very dis
tasteful and altogether Inconsistent
with simple good breeding. Equally
ill-tiined and injurious are fretting
and grumbling about your food.
Study to keep free from mental or
emotional excitement before during
or after meals, and do not take any
violent exercise Immediately before
or after meals. Take no food what
ever (fruit included) except at meal
times, and carry no food away from
the table. Eat slowly and masticate
all food thoroughly. AS a rule drink
spalingly at the table and do not
drink freely within an hour before
and after meals.
ONE of tire simplest and best rem
edies to be given to children if they
are troubled with worms is poplar
bark. A well-known physician has
used this for years with marked sue
cess. 1t can be bought at any drug
store, and little paper costing five
cents will often prevent sickness and
possibly save large doctors bill.
If a child looks white around the
mouth, with flushed cheeks and bad
breath, it is safe to infer that he is
afflicted with worms. Take a little
pinch of the bark, about as much as
one would naturally take up on the
point of a penknife, and give it be-
fore breakfast. 1t has clean, bit
ter taste, and there is no difficulty in
getting a child to take it if you ex-
plain what it is for. A good way to
regulate child's stomach and bow
els is to give him little bowl Of oat-
meal and milk every day for break
fast and dinner. See that it is we'll
sailed as salt promotes digestion.
The ailments of child who is in q
normal condition almost always pro-
coed from the stomach, and much
may be done for our children by pay
ing some attention to their diet and
so avoid giving medicine as much as
possible.

WEAVING CoLTs.-A little skim
med milk may be given with advant-
age at this period, especially if the
colt is not in good condition, but
clean, sound oats, ground or ungroud
constitutes the best of all grain food
for the colt. We prefer to have them
ground, and as cold weather approach
es we would add aboat one fourth in
weight of corn meal, which helps to
lay on fat and keeps up the animal
heat. A little oatmeal--say pint a
day-may also be proftably given
with the oats for few months after
weaving. Don't be afraid of feeding
too literally. More colts are injured
the first six months after weaving by
too scanty an allowance of food than
from the opposite extreme.
