Care of Meadows.
The Graphic.


Many moving fields contain distractions
jury to machines and implements employed
to secure the hay crop. They are in the
form of stumps stones, small bushes or tus-
socks. Many of them are not visible when
the grass or clover is standing, and the mower
runs on to them before they are noticed
Some of them are quite close to the surface
of the ground, and being covered with hay
are not perceived till they interfere with the
teeth of the rake. The position of all these
distractions should be noted during the
season of cutting grass and as soon as the
fields are cleared they should be carefully re-
moved. They are visible then. and
can be removed without difficulty.
Moving fields should also re-
ceive attention Immediately after having
with view of increasing their productive
ness. If there are patches that produce but
little grass, and that of poor quality, they
should be treated SO that they will produce
better crops A top-dressing of fine barn
yard manure and ashes may be all that is
needed to make them productive. Gener-
ally, however, the surface should oe stirred
with a harrow and some grass-seed sown.
Ordinarily it is not judicious to sow grass
seed without at the same time sowing some
grain, which will prevent the growth of
weeds In moving field, however, there
are not likely to be many weeds to interfere
with the growth of young grass. BY sowing
seed soon after haying and treating the soil
properly good stand may be insured for
next season. 1t is an excellent plan to use a
roller in a moving field after haying, if the
surface is not smooth. The time to use it is
after a heavy rain.

Household Hints.

If you are afraid your yeast cakes are q
little stale, put one of them in a cup of watn
water with good pinch of hops; let this
stand for an hour or so before using; it will
have an excellent effect on the yeast and
will insure good bread.
A handsome little lambrequin for brack-
ct is made of black satin cut in points. Trim
the edge around the points with short ard
fine silk or chenille fringe Across the top
paint vine with green leaves and red Der
ries and on each point put a rosebud or y
tiny spray of forget-me-nots or of helitrops.
Pretty banners for the wall, or small
screens, are made by taking a strip of silk or
satin and applying the handsome woven rose
buds or pahsies which can be purchased on
cards at stores where fancy goods are kept
Tasteful fringe can be made by raveling out
the the ends OF the silk and tying II in
knots.
A table-scarf that is tasteful and quite in
expensive is made of dark-green felt. 1t
should be about half yard wide; have il
pinked on the edge, and on each end put n
strip of silk patchwork, famllarly call ed
"cracy patch work" Have this strip about
one-quarter of yard deep. Make fringe
of the felt, cut in very narrow strips, and
six inches deep. Each edge of the silk patch
work should be feather-stitched.
When using lemons for any purpose, il
will be found all economical plan to CRATE
the yellow rind off mix it with an equal
quantity of sugar. and put it up in an empty
box with tight cover. This will be de-
licious for fiavoring custards, molasses-cake
and anything else where lemon extract is
used. 1t retains the strength of the lemon
while cooking and is much more delicate to
the taste than the oil or extract OF lemon.
A small economy, but one not to be de-
spised especially in large families, is TO save
bits of toilet soap when they begin to waste
When pint or even half pint is collected,
put in a bowl, add boiling water and stir.
Set away and, as it evaporates add little
boiling water and stir well. Do this every
day till all the humps have disappeared.
Then add few drops of oil of cinnamon or
oil Of cologne. Wet deep narrow pan IN
cold water, pour in the soap and leave 1t to
mold. After two or three days turn it ont
and leave to dry The result will be an ac-
ceptable toilet soap.

The best bacon is made from pigs which
will not weigh more than 125 pounds when
dressed. The rashers or strips for the bacon
are cut lengthwise of the pig and about half
of the sides are used The portion next to the
backbon is fatter and lacks in muscle. and
is not so good on this account, When bacon
is made from small pigs-those weighing less
than 100 pounds-the whole of the sides are
used. Red and black Berkshire hogs make
the best bacon, because they have the lar.est
proportion of lean meat Six pounds of salt
and four ounces of saltpeter should be used
for 100 pounds Of meat. Five pounds of
brown sugar may also be used, or two quarts
OF molasses If the bacon is cured in a barrel
the salt, saltpeter and sweetening should be
mixed, and portion sprinkled on the bot
tom of the barrel and some also between the
layers of meat and on the top. and water
enough, after the meat is packed closely, put
on 10 cover it, In month the meat will be
ready to smoke. Too much smoke will color
the meat and give it rank taste. Another
way to cure bacon is 10 rub the above mix
ture on the flesh side of the strips of bacon
and then pile it up one piece above another
and let the mixture strike in. After three
days rub again and pile upas before. A week
after rub again and pile it up, putting the
flesh side up every time. The mixture
should be divided into three equal parts, to
provide for the several rubbings. AT the end
OF a month the meat will be ready for smok-
ing, or before, if the salt has all struck in
and the surface has become comparatively
dry, which is an indication. After smokinz
the rashers should be sewed up in bags made
of cotton cloth and hung up in dry, dark
place. If the bags are whitewashed on the
outside all the better, as this will keep the
worms out
