From a Washington Letter.


Next to Mrs. Southwo,t tn, Mrs. Glenn
mer Hudson formerly Mary Clemmer
Ames) has probably earned more money
by writing than any other woman in
Washington. All or nearly all of her
money, has been made from her letters
to the New York Independent and the
Brooklyn Argus, for, though none Of
her books have been conspicuous fail
ures, none of them ever created any
special sensation in the literary world,
and her remuneration from them has
been small. She has earned as much as
$1,000 year, but her regular income is
by no means so great as that. Like Mrs.
Southworth, Mrs. Clemmer HUI ism has
naught in substance to show for her
work except house; but it is very
roomy, comfortable, pressed-brick

How TO Make q Poultice.

In order to relieve spasm. as in collie
Intestinal, hillary, or renal; to relieve
inflammation of the pleura, the lungs, liv-
er or other organs, we want to apply
the poultice as hot as possible. Will Q we
protect the skin from being scalded. In
order to do this, a flannel bag should be
prepared, convenient size being twelve
inches by eight. This should be closed
at the sides and at one end and left open
1t the other, and one side of the fam
mel should be about an inch and half
longer in order to fold it over aud haste,
when filed with the poultice, and it is
convenient to have four tapes attached
to the points which form the corners
when the bag is closed In order to keep
the poultite in position. Besides this.
another strip of flannel should be pre-
pared of the same breadth of the length
of the bag, and long enough to wrap it
once or more.
Crushed linseed, bowl and spoon
should then be got together. and the
bowl and spoon thoroughly heated by
means of boiling water. The poultice
should then be made with actively boil
ing water, and should be mixed rather
soft. AS soon as it is ready it should be
poured into the bag which has been
heated by boiling before the fire. The
flap formed by the long side of the lag
is now folded over and fastened in place
by few long stitches with coarse thread.
1t should then be quickly wrapped in
the strip Of flannel (also warmed) and
fastened in place if necessary by means
of the strings. 1t may be covered out
side with sheet of cotton batting. 10
this way the poultice may be applied
boiling hot to the skin without burning.
The two layers Of flannel. which are at
first dry, allow the heat to pass very
gradually indeed to the skin.
Az the moisture Of the poultice soaks
through them they become better con-
ductors, and the heat passes more quick
ly, but the increase Is SO gradual that it
causes no painful sensation W h itever.
but only one OF soothing ana comfort.
The poultice also keeps much longer hot |
and the necessity for changing it aris-
ss much less frequently. The difference |
between the effect of a poultice made in |
the ordinary way, and in the man ner
just described, is striking. It is perhaps
less marked in cases of Inflammation |
than spasm.
We have seen patient suffering from |
intense abdominal pain, at once relieved |
by poultice made in the manner de-
scribed, although succession of poul
ices made in the ordinary way had |
heen utterly useless.-Practiiione

Farming Notes.

II Ia asserted that $50, 600 of Eng.
fish capital was invested in American
cattle ranches last year. There are now
in the West agents from several large
institutions in England and Holland
buying up water privileges, and it may
be safely estimated that an equal amount
will be invested this year in the same
way.
An average COW for dairy purposes
should give twenty pounds of milk per
day during 200 days every year; eight
pounds Of cream for every 1Os pounds of
milk, and forty five pounds of butter
from every 100 pounds of cream, and full
ly ten pounds of butter from every 100
pounds Of milk.
Grass, says the Ohio Farmer, is the
sheet-anchor of successful farming.
The proportion of grass landsin any Sec
ton Of the country is pretty sure in
dex Of the degree of agricultural pros
perity enjoyed, advancement made, or
profit produced. Where grass is neg.
lectad labor is increased and soils are
deteriorated.
After field is newly seeded with
blue grass, says the New England Farm
er, it should be allowed to go to seed
once or twice, or until thick turf is
produced, but never afterwards, as pro-
ducing seed diminishes vitality. If dry
weather stops growth, the grass is still
very nourishing, and is eaten greedily
by animals till the rain comes to drench
and rot it.
The advantages of drainage are that it
enables the farmer to work his ground
earlier in the spring; it prevents the
soil from packing after heavy, protracted
rains IL makes the soil loose and friable
it corrects the "sourness" OF moist lands
anu makes them warm and kind: and
last, though not least, it increases the
yield of nearly all kinds OF crops, and
improves the feeding quail
ty of grass ami hay-and this sweeten-
ing of pasturage and forage -esu!ts ulti-
mately in better beef and mutton, and

From an Irish Melody.
There's meier lad in all our band
But loves the shamrock green;
Thinks with dimmed eyes of Erin's skies,
And the seas that roll between.
Yet on we march DER shifting sand,
Meath stars with ghostly sheen;
Each man goes by, content to die
For country and for Queen.
Full well we know there's grief at home
That bIights our shamrock fair;
But here we see pure loyalty
Ready to do and dare.
So on we march meath heavens wide dome
Dark, quiet and serene;
Fight, bold and brave, or find q grave,
For country and for Queen.
Soft soft we step, and make no noise
Ia silence, one and all.
The Egyptian d " dawns red and gray
Who'll see the evening fall?
But be it life or death. my boys,
Let's keep our shamrock green;
Whate'er betide, we lived, we died,
For country and for Queen.

Value OF the Grasses,

Professor j. B. Killebrew, who has
made grasses study. claims That the
acknowledged superiority of English
cattle, sheep and other domestic ami
mails, over those of France, or any other
country, for that matter, is due more to
superiority in the quality and quantity
Of the meadows and pastures of that
wonderful island than to anything
else." The statement that the amount
OF grass grown will give the measure of
the degree of advancement to which ag-
riculture has reached, holds good, how

Corn for Sitting Hens.

1t is claimed that corn is the most
suitable food for sitters. The require
ments ola sitter differ from those OF
other hens. Keeping quiet and without
much exercise. not much is required to
sustain life, and their food should be OF
such a nature as to digest slowly. For
this reason whole grain is preferred,
and corn IS thought to be much the best.
Soft food of any kind is soon digested,
and the hen becomes hungry and either
leaves the nest too frequently or else be.
