FARM AND PRESIDE.

Poisonous washes applied to the
foliage of trees, vines, etc., are of no
avail against those insects which suck
the juices of plants instead of eating
the leaves of buds.
The soil has much to do in affect

and it is a point that is seldom taken
into careful consideration, though its

-Buttermilk Cakes: Make a smooth
batter of flour and one quart of butter
milk; then add two spoonfuls of corn
meal, two well-beaten eggs, little
salt and one teaspoonful of soda, dis
solved in cup of new milk. Beat well
together, and bake on hot gridle, and
serve as soon as baked.-N r. Times.
When thistles appear in oats their
tops may be worn of week or two
before the oats shoot up into heading.
AT this time the thistles are several
inches higher than the oat leaves. Il
cut then, blossoming and seeding are
not only prevented, but the short stubs
of tbistles fall out of the bundles in
binding and leave the straw clean

1T is said that weeds may be de
stroyed for years by copious watering

will be highly important to such as

grow up.
An excellent pudding is made OF
tart apples stewed, and then put in
layers with fine cracker or bread
crumbs. While the apples are still hot
stir sugar and little butter in with
them. This should be baked for hall

great addition, but it is good without
any sauce.-M y Post.
As windgalls are of frequent occur
renee and often seem bugbear in the
eyes of some, we give the following
from the Veterinary Journal, which is
| good authority on the treatment OF the
different diseases of horses. 1t says:
.sWindgalls may be removed by a
strong decoction of white oak bark and
alum. They may be reduced by bis
tering, from subsequent contraction OF
the skin. AS they appear on colts and
do no injury unless attended with in
tlammation, it might probably be policy
to let them alone.
"A writer in the Springfield (Mass. }
Republican has found during long ex-
perience small chain tether, twenty to
twenty-five feet in length, every way
preferable to rope: Zone end is toggled
around the neck of the animal and the
other, with ring in it, is pinned to
the ground with short, sharp, pointed
flat-headed iron bar. The chain should
have swivel and two or three heavy
links about two feet from the neck end,
in order to keep the animal from snarl-
ing up. The chain grows brighter with
use and win last for years. rain OF

Between Biloxi and Mississippi City
the engine broke down and the train
was brought to q standstill. When the
conductor announced that it would be
two or three hours before we could pro-
coed, thirty or forty of the passengers
sauntered across the field to negro
cabin and sat down in shady grove.
There were dozen or more dogs around
the place, and presently two of them
engaged in a savage fight lasting about
ten minutes. They were finally sepa-
rated by the owner, and closely follow
ing was fight between boy of eight
or nine and girl year or two older.
Then came another dog-fight, and then
the old woman stepped out and the boy
and girl pitched into her, tooth and toe
nail. The ladies in the crowd became
excited and indignant, and just as an
other dog-fght was being arranged for,
one of the gentlemen walked up to the
colored man and said:
1--WE want this brutal sport stopped
at once! You and your wife ought to
be ashamed of yourselves

Asphalt as Fuel.

Inventors ought to find good field
in the study of some effective means to
utilize asphalt as fuel. The solution OF
this question would be of great service
to this country. 1t is said that many Of
what were thought to be coal mines,
recently discovered in various parts of
Mexico, are really deposits of bitumen.
Now while asphalt is highly combusti-
BILE there seems to be at present no
practicable method to utilize it as fuel,
owing to its melting when subjected to
heat. 1t is likely, however, that with
the demand for cheap fuel now felt all
over the country for railway. mining
and other industrial purposes, some eff
fective method can be devised to make
practical use of its heat-producing quail
tiles; burning it, perhaps, after reducing
1t either to q liquid or vaporized form.
The inventor of such q process could
command handsome fortune for the
use of the right in this country. The
products of the new oil wells in Vera
Cruz, much of which are said to be too
heavy for Illuminating purposes, might
also be utilized in the same manner

Mr.. George Bfownell writes from
Liverpool to the 81. James Gazette: In
the various remarks which have lately
appeared in your paper on Pacing
Horses / have not noticed any allu-
sion to those of Peru, where that type
of hack has been brought to a perfec-
ton probably unknown elsewhere.
Doubtless this has originated from the
climate. the nature of the country, and
the extensive sandy deserts in which a
trotting or galloping horse, sinking
fetlock deep, would soon exhaust him.
self; but apart from practical uses the
gait has there attained the position of
positive art, and it requires very prac-
ticed rider in that style of riding to do
justice to true scaballo de paso. There
are at least ten recognized varieties of
the 'paso, or pace. known to the
initiated-the spaso andante, the 'paso
compagnera,' etc. The great majority
of the native horses are PAGERS; but q
really first-rate one becomes an article
of luxury, and may command an ex-
travagant price. On some of the estates
great care was devoted to the breeding
Of these horses, many of which
were OF extreme beauty, and
their training and biting was .

and plenty of time was given. l notice

varied or perfected by education Trot
he win not; If he can be driven into a
gallop it is ut once seen that it is un-
natural to him. But, then, his pace is
SO superior to that of the animal who
has only been taught to pace that there
is no comparison whatever; and it is q
little surprising that so few have been
imported into this country: though this
may be due to his true merit being that
of Journey horse. for which purpose
he would of course be of little use here.
For coaches and for their cavalry the
Peruvians have relied mainly on horses
imported from Chilli"

Harvesting Onions.

In favorable season, with proper
culture and good seed, the onion crop
will mature evenly and the time of har-
vest be indicated by the dropping over
of the greater part or all of the tops.
As soon as the crop is ready to harvest
it is best to pull 1T once, for the onions
will be brighter and keep better than if
permitted to remain in the ground after
they have attained their growth and the
tops have lost their lively green color.
Under adverse circumstances onions
sometimes incline to run to scallions
and many of the tops refuse to drop
down and dry up. A common practice,
when this state of affairs exists, is to
roll an empty barrel over the bed. to
break the tops down few days preyi-
Gus to pulling the crop.
When the main crop Is ripeharves,
it and sort out what is unfit for market
or table use. Pull the onions by hand
or rake them out with an ordinary hand
rake. One mode is to throw them into
heaps containing two or three bushels,
there to remain until the tops are cured
and the bulbs are hard and solid. II a
rain occurs, these heaps must be opened
on fair day and replied, SO as to rid
them of the moisture that would other
wise blacken and injure the onions
The usual plan is to cart the crop
away when the tops have become
thoroughly dry and store in some cool,
dry place where there is . free circula-
ton of air. There are cultivators,
however, who leave the onions in the
field after pulling until freezing weather
or until they are sold, believing thai
early housing induces sweating and
sprouting.
The tops ought not to be removed
until they are dead throughout theil
entire length. Many farmers delay
topping their onions until they arr
marketed. When the onions are to b
kept through the winter it is advisable Il
store that crop where the frost will no
affect it and where no loss viii be sus
tanned from heating or growing. TIL,
cellar is not good place unless
chances to be dry, cool one. A lat
tice-work bin affords an admirably
storage, provided it is raised q littl,
from the floor in some well-ventilatet
building. Onions receive little or NJ
injury from freezing, provided Away
they are thawed out gradually, but a
this cannot be insured the safe plan /
to protect them. When freezing weathe
approaches some farmers spread laye
OF straw about twelve inches deep up
ON the barn or garnet floor; on this the,
place layer of onions, say five or 81
inches deep. and cover with layer Q
straw about two feet deep, held il
place by boards or rails.
If by any chance onions becom
frozen they should remain undisturbes
and covered until thawed.-N. y
