ties and jackets for the early autumn.
The mantles are in visite shape, half
long, with square sleeves, and are cut
open usually from the waist down in
tine middle ofthe back, in order to make
room for very bouffant tournures; in

made with provision for very ample
drapery. Gray ficelle lace in two full
frilIs with passe-menterie of gray satin
cords is the trimming for these grace

Underdrains Let others do as they
please, but if you want drain that will
last hundred years or more, dig the
ditch as deep as the outlet will require
and fill the same to within eight or nine
inches of the surface with loose stone
thrown in promiscuously from wagon,
the largest at the bottom and the small
est on top, and after covering with an
inch or so of leaves from the woods,
throw in as much of the excavated
earth as will ELL the ditch up level with
the surrounding surface. Underdrains
so made will last time out of mind,
with no occasion for repairs.
Coal Oil for Shingles If shingles are
dipped in crude coal oil before mailing
on, they will last nearly twice as long.
They then lie close and snug, with no
warping or fuzzing up by the weather.
A vat large enough to contain bundle
OF shingles should be filed with the
oil and then the shingles put in and
allowed to soak a few minutes, when
they should be taken out and and an
other bundle put In, and SO on until the
whole are thus treated a day or so be-

Glucose, What is 1t? Glucose proper
is table syrup, made by boiling corn
starch in sulphuric acid, foil of vitriol)
the manufacturer sometimes adding
copperas and then mixing the whole
with lime. DIR. Kedzic, professor Of
chemistry in the Agricultural College
OF Michigan, upon analyzing seventeen
specimens of different table syrups.
found fifteen OF them made of glucose;
one of which contained 141 grains Of oil
OF vitriol and 724 prains OF lime, whilst
another, which had caused the serious
sickness of a whole family, contained
~ grains Of the oil OF vitriol, IS g1ains
Of the sulphate Of iron. (copperas) and
1868 grains of lime to the gallon. The
manufacturers buy the pure syrup nude
of cane sugar, and mix the glucose with
it themselves, and thus the deleterious
effects Of these mixtures are easily &C.
counted for.

D.yersifed Crops.

The press of the South has, without
exception for years been busly engaged
in eudeavoring to impress upon the
Southern farmer the great benefits
which would inure to him by abandon
ing his old custom of pinning his faith
to cotton alone, and by diversifying his
crops SO as to produce at home such
articles as are absolutely necessary for
home consumption. 1t is believed that
these teachings have at least been
needed. Certain it is that during the
the past season the acreage of cotton
generally has been decreased, while
that of corn, wheat, oats, hay and other
crops has been senisbly increased, and
the advantages which will result from
this condition of affairs will probably
manifest themselves so practically that
the diversified system will not hereafter
re abandoned.
The advantages to the States COLI
Ferned will be many millions for this
year alone, for any curtailment of the
cotton crop, even the smallest, when
that staple is wholly relied on, is disas-
.rous to the cotton States, and is in
variably followed by distressing 6nan-
oial stringency. The margin Of profit
on cotton raising, when large supplies
of grain and other provisions are drawn
from other sections, is so small that
only full crops leave the planter pros
porous. Instead, therefore, of the
prospects IN the cotton States being
unfavorable by reason of having given
increased attention to the cereals and
to corn AMI vegetables, this season
gives unusual promise CT ease and pros
perity. If the season had been one of
the best for cotton, the result would
only have been still more favorable for
planters. As it is, they have what
would have been a close year, with little
or no profits, turned into one of surely
more than ordinary prosperity. II
view of these acknowledged facts, the
lesson brings nothing new to light Lor
reveals anything not before believed by
many, but it vindicates the theory that
diversified agriculture is founded in
prudence and true wisdom. 1t is prob.
able that a. riculturists will adopt it
more and more extensively from year to
gear Rural Record.

FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
Mnnures aud PlowinR.

Colonel John Fl. Dent, of Georgia,
writes to the Southern World that any
farmer who stables eight head of horses,
aud rens ten head Of cattle, and owns
sheep and hogs in proportion, and will
hire an active hand by the year as lot
man and stock man, and to perform no
other labor but the collecting and heap
ing of manures, and to litter the lots,
ETC., will make sufficiency of manures
provided proper rotation of crops is
observed, as well as to SOW clover on
your fields) as will enrich farm of two
hundred cultivated acres, without hav-
ing to buy commercial fertilizers. 1t is
as much o part of farmers duty to
make manures as it is to make his fenc-
ing, cultivate his crops and house them.
This modern mania for fertilizers is
onlya speculation inaugurated by cotton
planters to make heavy yields of cotton;
it's one of these manias that will have
its day and time, and then die out.
Warming proper-that is, mixed crops,
consisting of corn, wheat, oats, pota-
Oes. peas and grass and enables
re to do much for preserving and i'm
rowing the lands by rotation, as well
rs by turning under clover and stubble.
The advantages are much greater than
with the planter who plants only corn
andcotton crops; hence, as above re-
marked. with the amount of stock
named, and a hand to attend tie col
lection of manures as a specially, for a
two hundred acre farm bought manures
are unnecessary-all required can be
made on the farm.

Birds, Feathers. etc.

One large bird, two heads, or a group
of several small birds are the trimmings
most used on Paris bonnets. 4 world
wide slaughter of the innocents has
been going on to supply birds to satisfy
this new caprice; for besides the velvet
plumage OF Australian birds, the bril-
liant hues of those of South America,
the shaded gray Mediterranean sWal-
lows, and blue-tipped wings of English
jays, are seen the skins of almost every
bird known to our goods, and even
those of the commonest domestic fowls.
From the poultry-yard are taken whole
broods of tiniest chicks, cocks heads.
breast, and tail feathers, and the backs
of hens from tip of beak to tail; while
there are boxes of snipe from Long Is
land, white pigeons from New jersey,
gray tern, cartridges, wild-ducks, crows,
hawks, magpies, Jays. etc. There are
poke bonnets made entirely of the tips
OF game feathers pasted on fatty. and
trimmed with single large plump bird,
or with clusters of many small hum
ming birds. Turbans and small bon
nets are made of English pheasants'
feathers in the stylish brown shades or
in the blue-green of lophophores and
pea-fowls, and these have bright spots
like jewels on the crown, made of the
brilliant throat feathers of many tiny
humming- birds. The newest feather
turbans have the brims to stand out
ward from the forehead, so that they
will not fatten fluffy crimps of hair.
Sometimes eight birds are denuded to
supply the exact shades required for a
single turban. Medium long ostrich
plumes are preferred to those of the
greatest length, land all ostrich feathers,
even the shortest tips, are now made up
SO thick that they look well even when
their curl has been destroyed BY damp
ness. For general use. cocks plumes
promise to be more used than ostrich
feathers, and many of these have bangles
of Jet at the tip of each plume.
