Lifting ceraniums.

When lifting geraniums, if wanted to
flower in the house, select such as have
made a very rampant growth; take care
of all the roots possible, pick off some of
the larger leaves around the bottom of
the plant to check evaporation, but re-
tain the tops of the shoots, as by so doing
all the buds formed upon the plant when
lifted will open and bloom, if kept in a
shady place for a few days after being
lifted and then placed in the full sun.
If the plants are to be kept in the cellar,
lift them with all the roots possible, cut
the shoots well back and pick off most OF
the leaves, place them in a sandy soil in
a box, and they will keep in a FROST
proof cellar without much trouble.

water to keep them from Storytelling

A New Game for Children.

We mention this game, which we be-
lieve has never appeared in print, be-
cause not only many may take part,
but, like really good games, amusement
and perhaps some instruction may be
derived in playing it, and any number
may play at the same time. Let us
suppose that ten children decide to play
this game of Names" Each player is
provided with a long slip of paper and
a pencil, and if one of the players has
a watch so much the better; If not, a
clock may be used. One commences
by calling out; Girls names COM
mencing With A; two minutes allowed
Each player then writes down all the
girls names that he (or she) car collect.
and at the expiration of the two min
utes 'time" is called. Then the
oldest player reads from his Cor herr slip
all the names he or she has writ
ten down-say Amy, Amabel, Alice,
Ann, Annie, Amanda, Aileen, etc,
All the other players, as the names are
read out, cancel any name read out. If,

cancel Amy, and count n mark. Say
six players have Amabel, and four have
not, each of the six have one mark,
those who have not thought and written
down Amabel, and so on through the
list. The object of the game is to teach
the children all girls and boys names.
When the marks have been allotted foi
all the names the total of the marks are
read out and noted on each slip. The
players then proceed in a similar man
ner for all boys names commencing
with A, such as Alfred, Abel, Adam,
Andrew, etc. The game car be contin.

e.Luckn on the Farm.

A Wisconsin dairyman uttered Q

"it was not by SPECIAL dispensation OF

So it is not a special act of Providence,
remarks Mr.. Henry Stewart, that on

bushels per acre and the hay three tons
while on the other side the products
are 80 bushels Of corn, and barely Q

For the Cook.

CHICKEN PIE.-For the crust, take
equal parts of our cream and butter
milk, n pint of each; a teaspoonful of
salt and one of soda, and make a dough
the same as for biscuit. Line the sides
of a suitable baking dish Ia milk pan is
an excellent one) with this paste. 1t
needs no bottom crust as it is apt to be
heavy. Have the chicken already boiled
until tender IN water seasoned with salt
and pepper to the taste. Cut the pieces
up well and lay them in the dish, and
put in bits of butter here and there.
Then cover all with the water in which
the chicken has been boiled. 1t must
not be thickeued with flour, or in the
process of baking it will be too thick.
Mold some butter into the remaining
crust and cover the pie with it, wetting
the edges and pressing them we'll to-
gether. Cut some Sits in the center
and bake in o moderate oven an hour
or more. When there is no bottom
crust the remains may be more easily
warmed over.
To Cook SALT PORK. Soak the slices
over night in sweet milk. Scald them
ingclear water in the morning and fry.
Then dip each slice in a batter made. OF
a couple of eggs, half a teacup of sweet
milk, a pinch of salt, and as much -four
as can be readily stirred in. Cover each
slice thickly with this batter and return
to the spider, and cook until the batter
is done. With workingmen, this makes
an agreeable variety.
CoLD BIscuns.-Those left over from
tea may be made better than when
freshly baked, by dipping them into
hot water and placing them singly on
the CRATE IN the even long enough be-
fore breakfast to let them get well
warmed through.

Farmers who have kept a strict ac-
count with their stock say that a pound
of poultry can be made for less than a
pound of pork, yet the laboring man
who has to buy botn feels that he Il n
not afford to buy poultry very often, as
it costs more than other meats. I'M

that the poultry growing business may

This most nutritious of al grains is food

Selecting seed corr is q job it will
pay the farmer to do himself, and not
trust to the boys IL help. BY a rigid
course of selection, with certain points
in view, it is easy to make perceptible
gains on the quality and yield of ones
crop with passing years. The best time
TO make this selection of seed ears is
while the corn is standing, but if it was
then neglected, it may still be we'll done
at husking time. Most men would
agree that the main points to be observ-
ed are earliness of maturity, number
and size of the ears, the filling out of
tho grain on the cob, the size of the
stalk and the amount of leaf. Leave
the husks on the selected ears, to serve
for braiding them together and hang
ing them up to dry. They should be
hung in a dry loft, or the peak of a
corr crib out of the way of rats and
mice to dry, By %suspending the braid
ed ears from stretched wires these pests,
where present, will be prevented from
reaching them.
