For my friends are waiting there.
Waiting with smiling faces,
Waiting with OutstTc ,ched hands,
Ina the old accustomed places,

And when I've nothing at all to eat,
Zach gives me from his store.

rnae them thoroughly; add fresh cold
Water and bring them to a boil turn off

boil until they can be easily mashed be-
tween the thumb and finger; drain Oft

.A-o deep earthen pot, with narrow
mouth, filling it almost: now upon the
beams put about one pound lean picked
pork, the riDd of which should be scored,
tlat is, cut through in lines one half inch
apart; fill the pot with boiling water to
cover the beans, add one tablespoonful
ot molasses, but no salt, pepper or spice
Of any kind; always use boiling water
after the first boil, and add little from
time to time to prevent the beans from
being burned; bake six or eight hours.

indeed, the true manner requires the pa
tience Of an old housekeeper, who only
knows how to make mach Of little in

VOLUME 81.

The cereal estimates of the Depart
ment of Agriculture for the crop of 1881
is completed, showing a more general re-
duction in the yield than for MANY years.
In no season since the inauguration of
crop reporting has there been so general
disaster, involving corn, wheat, buck
wheat and rye oats alone being exempt
from loss. The aggregate of corn esti-
mates is ,l49, ,9l6,O00 bushels; rye, 20, =
704, $50; barley, II ,l6l $50; oats, 4l6, ,4Sl-
600 buckwheat, 9,4S6,200 wheat. $50, :.
2S0,O90. The aggregate product of all
cereals is 2,06}, 029, so bushels against
2,7lS, 1913, ,50l, a decrease of "a per cent.
The aggregate value of cereal estate in
1881 is greater than valuation of 1890.
Corn and oats, mainly consumed at home
and used inter changeably, are most hf-
tected by the failure of maize. The
average value of corn has advanced from
1876 cents in 1880, to 6.3 cents in lo1 i
oats from 81 to 46.4 cents wheat dd-
