!. Alleged" /

Few words are commoner in the lam
guage Of the newspapers than the word
9 alleged. = To allege anything, it the
old meaning be good, is to affirm it with
the exactness of dispatch. But the
participle Of this verb has found new
service. Whenever any doubts felt that
murder is a murder, the deed is soft
ened to an alleged" murder. When
ever a man loses his watch and his
senses, and cannot tell exactly how they
went, the lamentable occurrence is
chronicled as an alleged = robbery.
According to these new linguistic
lights, an allegation means guess.
phenomenon" applied to something
wonderful and abnormal, is common
instance Of high-fown vulgarity, much
i'm the mouths and on the pens of per-
sons who can hardly have comprised
the truth that shower of rain is just
as positively a phenomenon as is .
shower of frogs, a calf with six legs,
Miss Crummies, or an enormous goose
berry. g Immense = is an adjective
seldom used, but in such a manner as
to confute its own meaning. Thus,
in an account of some discovery be-
meath an ancient ruin, twas said that
skeletons Of great size were found, one
of them being of .sthe immense length
of seven feet ten inches.n If the length
of this skeleton was really seven feet
ten inches, or ten feet seven inches,
how could it have been immense?o
So, too, we read of walls of immense
thickness, and pumpkins of & immense
girth. Are there, then, no foot-rules or
measuring-tapes to reduce these i'm
mensities? A confagration is not
the burning of one house; it is the
meeting of flames, as when street,
town or village is fired in several places.
:. Culminate" is aNerb incorrectly used,
unless in respected something which has
reached the limit Of its possible height.
When, therefore, the career Of a wrong
doer is said to 4 eliminate in the low
est depths of degradation, the term is
misapplied, even to- being turned up
side down. So is the term z assiduous'
when employed to strengthen the idea
of perseverance, if the particular kind
of perseverance intimated be locomotive
and not sedentary, So, too, is "prepos-
terous,'' unless clearly denoting the fig
ure which homely rhetoric describes as

HOME. FARM AND GARDEN.


To drive nails into hard wood try
dipping the points in lard.
Rusks: Take one quart OF bread
sponge before mixing it in the morning,
(I always start bread at night, add to
It one cup of sugar, one egg, one-haf
cup of butter, and little nutmeg. Mix
hard, let rise, then make out into your
tins, letting them get quite light the
last time.
Before filing up vacant places u
the orchard with young trees, It is Des::
to think whether the full-groWn trees
now standing will not, with good man
uring, bring more fruit than a larger
number would. Most OF our orchards
were planted too closely, and the tree
roots interlace so as to rob each other
Of what fertility each should have.
Although butter alone is nearly in
digestible, yet the relish that good but
ter imparts to bread makes it more
healthful than the bread alone would be.
. The human stomach will digest almost
ANYTHING that is eaten with a relish,
though scarcely anything that is not.
This is a point which the directors
against the use of butter should care
fully note.
Mr.. r. Greiner, in the Farm ana
Garden, says that the easiest and quick
est way to destroy the weeds that gem
orally start about the time when the
potatoes are up so that the rows can be
seen plainly is by a thorough use Of
harrow or drag. He places great en-
phasis upon this, and deems it far more
effective than the cultivator and hoe, at
less expense.
The pudding which should invariably
accompany a boiled dinner to the table
is made in this way: One pint OF
sweet or sour milk. two teacups OF corn
meal, sifted; one teaspoonful of soda,
dissolved in hot water; add two slices OF
stale cake, crumbled very fine and
mixed with the meal; boil for three
hours in bag; serve with common
sour pudding sauce.
Western corn-growers persist in
planting corn after corn. The result IS
that they have bred a worm which eats
the roots, and which lives in the ground
from year to year. As it is not migra-
tory, it's existence depends on having
corn planted on the same field in sue
cession. Good husbandry. which de-
mands rotation of crops, will therefore
rid farmers of this pest.
&C. H.. Johnson tells the Fruit Groacer
that by going carefully over the ground
several times each season and burning
all plants showing raspberry rust he has
scceeded to such an extent that no
more than half dozen cases of the dis
ease appeared last year in the whole Of
his three acres devoted to this fruit,
while another, at some distance, .'lost
almost his entire stock without knowing
the cause. =
The practice Of some Of the best
farmers now is to keep pigs through the
summer on green food, cut and carried
to the pens, with a little grain, and
what milk can be spared after butter
making. Spring pigs are thus made to
weigh two hundred pounds at seven
months old, and, except in the last
month, they get little grain. The best
time to sell such pigs is at the begin
ming Of cold weather, usually in October.
