Currant Cuttings.

An experienced gardener Of Indiana,
according tn the, farmers Advocate, is
o; opinion that sera few persons who
plant currant cuttings u6i at the right
season OF. the year. 1t is ustially done
in the spring, when in fact it Should be-
done in the fall. l have had good
deal of experience in prop eating cut
tings. always plant my currant cut
tiugs in the fall as soon us the leaves fall
oft. They will mike durable roots two
or four inches long the same fall, while
the buds remain dormant. They will
make double the growth the next sea-
son if set in the fall, than they will If
not set till spring: They should be set
in ground that will not heave them out
by the effects of frost, ard should be
covered just before winter sets in with
coarse litter. Remove the covering
early in the spring, and examine the
cuttings to see if any of them have
heaved, and ifso, press them down again.
Should they heave up an inch or more,
if we'll pressed down, they will start and
make a better growth than cutting. in
the spring. In either case however,
the cuttings should always be made in
the fall.

Meat Fiati,,s ln Paris.

According to a report published by
the French Minister of agriculture the
consumption of butchers meat in Paris
during 1881 aggregated 33l ,4s3 1852
pounds. and in 1882 335, $50, 7el. During
1882 there were consumed in the de-
partment of the Seine 1926 horses, 81
mules and 346 asses, forming total Of
3,9s5,62O pounds, of which two.thirde
were converted into sausages. The first
fact of importance to nstice is the pro.
gressive consumption of butchers meat,
evidencing on the whole that the Paris
population are augmenting their ma.
terial comforts. The second fact to
which the attention ofthe Partisan func.
tionaries should be drawn is the incon.
sistency of prescribing American pork
in consequence of alleged unhealthy
tendencies and yet permitting the con-
sumption of horses, mules and asses
neatly done up in eausages. =.

The Charm of Breakfast.

From Harper's Bazaar.
Sydney Smith once said that break
fast was so pleasant because nobody was
conceited before o'clock. In truth,
most people are at their best at this
hour they have been refreshed with
sleep, the ahnoyances of the previous
day have stepped into the back ground,
or have proved of no account, the odor
of hot coffee stimulates their appetites,
they are beginning the journey of anoth-
or day, and like oil journeys, there is
more or less excitement and expectation
about it; who knows what pleasant things
may happen therein, what charming
companions may be starting out to meet
us, what letters the postman maybe that
minute taking from the mail bag for us,
what checks the publishers may be that
instant signing in our behalf. Possibly
by dinner time we may be aisillusioned
and out Of temper; the happiness we
looked for may have failed us, the
friends we counted upon may have dis.
appointed us, the editor may have de-
clined our ode which was to make our
name q household word, the mailbag
may have been robbed, duns may have
assailed US; but in the morning ut break
fast the world is before us to choose, an
other page Of that interesting romance,
every day life, is opening before us, and

out Of temper with nothing in particu-
lar, but the world in general, and con-
tinue irritable and disagreeable till
their appetites are satisfied. It is char.
table to suppose that this popularity is
owing to an empty stomach, but all the
same these are not the kind of people

An entree specially designed to accom-.
psny rosst pork y made In this way;
Peel as many potatoes IS will cover tue

bali q teaspoonfdl Of dried sage over
them. Cut a small onion III thin siiccs,
and spread them over this. Add ssli
and pepper, and little Jumps of butter
according to your taste. Cover the bot.

. medium.sized pudding dish full add
two we'll beaten eggs, q tablespoonful oil
butter, three tablespoonfuls Ot cream,
with pepper and salt and libitum. But.
ter the pudding dish, put the cabbage in
and bake until brown. This IN " be eat.
en- cold, but 1t Is much better Ii served
hot: 1t Is especially good with roast
pork, or pork chops,
A delicious chicken soup is made BY
cutting up one chicken and putting 1t in
your kettle with nearly two quarts OF
wafer, u teaspoonlul Of salt and a little
pepper. When about half done add two
teaspoonfuls Of barley or of rice. When
this is done remove the chicken from
the soup, tear or cut part Of the breast
into small pieces, and add to the sout
with cup OF cream. The rest of the
chicken may be reserved for salad, OF
for chicken croquettes.
Adelicate entree Is made by sctaping
ten small table carrots and putting them
In o saucepan with thret ounces of but.
ter. Let them simmer gently; when
you judge that they have cooked for fif.
teen minutes, add some salt, pepper q
very small onion chopped fine, and q
little say Q teaspoonful-o Of chopped
parsley. When the CARROTS are tender.
drain the butter from them and serve
hot. This is nice dish with roast beef.
Potato pancakes make most excel.
lent dish for supper. Serve with the
same Embellishments iii the way Of pick.

dish you were Offering fried oysters.
Crate dozen medium sized potatoes.
after peeling them and washing thor
oughly. Add the yolks of three eggs, q
heaping table spoonful of -four, and If
they seem to dry, little milk will do to
thin them, with a large teaspoonful OF
salt, and lastly the whites ofthe three
eggs beaten stiff, and thoroughly beaten
in with the potatoes. Heat your grid
die and put butter and lard in equal
proportions Oh it. and fry the cakes in
1t until they are brown. Make them q
third larger than the ordinary size of
the pancake.
One way to economic and to produce
excellent results in cooking is to use suet
in place of butter or lard: For many
purposes it is better than either of these.
Some people who object decidedly to
cakes fried in lard relish them when
suet is used for frying. Beef balls are
very nice fried in suet. Round steak can
be used for these. Chop the neat fine,
seaeon we'll with pepper and salt and
any herb you may choose, shape them
like flat balls with your hands, dip in
egg and fine cracker or bread cru mbs,
and fry in tho hot suet.
