How TO MAKE TEA.-The proper
method of making tea ought always to
be observed, yet, although so simple,
few seem to know how. People will
spoil it by boiling, or they will make a
weak decoction of the almost tastless
Oolomg or Hyson and adding few drops
OF milk, will swallow cup after cup OF
tho lnsipid stuff and imagine that they
are taking ten. Tea to be good must
mover bo boiled, as boiling kills the tino
flavor and the aroma. Thore ls but ono
way to mako tea, which is to allow ono
spoonful for each person, you expect to
supply; pour OH boiling water (be suro
the WAGER boils,) let the infusion stand
on the table (never over the tirc) and
in from three to five minutes 1t is
ready for use. A cup of rosy Favored
English breakfast two-thirds ten and
one-thlrd milk makes a beverage fit for
an epicure, philosopher or king.

consider the slop that it receives rs am
pie for its needs, or that when n pig is

AGRIOULTURE.

PoTAsH IN GREENHoUsEs.- expe-
rienced gardener, among other insecti-
cides, recommends the use of potash in
the greenhouse as providing a remedy
against most insects, and also fertilizing
tho plants. He says: Il use it for
cleaning the glass, swilling all wood and
and brick work everywhere inside, and
find it useful both for cleansing and as
an insectioide; and T think it is good
dressing for the soil. I have used it as
strong as one ounce to the gallon of
water for syringing glass over plants,
and it has not injured the leaves, on the
contrary, improved them. However.
would not advise it's use in this way
carelessly, but used as have described
it gets into every crack and orevice,
dealing certain death to the insect tribe.
L would strongly advise oil who have
not had a thorough experience of the
different kinds recommended.t to be very
cautious in their use OF insecticides and
note carefully their results, as many are
more dangerous than useful. Para1ilne,
for instance, when applied to plants in
any form whatever, kills the insects;but
how often does it close the pores of the
leaves and make the plants unhealthy,
and, as q consequence, moro liable TO
future attacks from insect pests"

KuhEs FOR CAKE-Have the ingredi-
ents all measured and prepared, and the
tins buttered before mixing the mater
lals. Sift the cream Of tartar, or baking
powder, we'll into the -four; dissolve
the soda In the milk, Or if no milk is
used, IN little warm water; roll the
sugar; boat the butter to cream; mix
tho butter and sugar together; beat the
yolks and whites Of the eggs separately.
When fruit is used, it must always be
added tho last thing, and dredged with
flour to prevent it's falling to the bottom.
Cake to be light should be baked SLOW
ly at first, until the batter is evenly
heated all through. I find that cake is
very much more delicate made with
puivorized sugar than when made with
Il coarser kind. Eggs will beat lighter
and quicker ii they are put into a BASIN
OF cold wator for half IN hour before
using.
