HONE AND FARM.

1t will be found impossible to make
frst-class butter from cows that feed in
low and wet pastures. Sour feed will
not make good butter.-Troy Times.
Cracker Cruel: Six tablespoonfuls
Of cracker-crumbs. one quart of milk.
one-half teaspoonful Of salt. Fut the
cracker-crumbs and milk into double
boiler. Let them come to boil. Cook
about two minutes longer. Can use
half milk and half water.-The House
hold.
President Beeler, of the Indiana
State Wool-Growers' Association, said
in his annual address that no sheep
breeder should part with the best of his
flock unless he is going out of the bust
ness Of breeding. To raise grain ex-
clusively on a farm is both ruinous and
unremunerative.
-Naturalists urge that bumble-bees'
nests should be carefully preserved, the
insect being the most valuable we have
in the fertilization of fruits and other
crops, their tongues being longer than
tho,e of honey-bees, and therefore bet
ter adapted to securing pollen and de-
posting it on other blossoms.
-Guenon, the eminent French au-
thority. says he has noticed that in gen.
eral those COWS which have four equal
teats and those which have six uour
equal and two smaller ones, which sure
ly yield no milky belong especially to
the higher order of their class. and that
those of inferior orders have usually
tour teats with one false nipple.
-Beggar Stew: Take all sorts OF
cooked and uncooked scraps of meat,
cut into very small pieces and put them
into stewpan with the bones chopped;
pepper and salt, little sliced onion,
double the. quantity of raw potatoes, and
cold water to cover; simmer quite gently
for three hours and, after removing tho
bones. serve very hot when the po:a>
toes are reduced to pulp.-Io!edo
Blade.
Dat Meal for Babes: Put four Ia
blespoonfuls of oat meal in a tin pail
and pour on it three pints of cold water.
Put the pail in vessel with hot water
in it and boil steadily for two hours.
Then pour it into an oatmeal strainer-
common sieve will do-and drain all
the liquid off thoroughly. To one cup
of this add one half cup of cream. two
cups water and sugar enough to make
it palatable. Give through a nursing
bottle. Instead of the cream, if desira-
bic, a half cup of the oatmeal water
may be used When rolled oats are
used an hours cooking is enough.-N.
Y. Tribune.
How we cook hams down South:
Weigh your ham and wipe it with
damp cloth. Make stiff paste of cold
water and flour. and with your hand
cover the entire ham with the paste an
eighth of an inch thick. Put the ham
thus covered with paste in pan ON a
spider or two muffin-rings; pop it in
hot oven and bake from fifteen to twen-
ty minutes for each pound of ham. If
the ham is under nine pounds in
weight fifteen minutes for each pound
is sufficient; if over nine pounds, twen-
ty. Being put in hot oven, the paste
Immediately forms thick crust round
the ham, retaining all the ju;ce, and
when done the skin comes off with the
crust, leaving your ham lovely to look
at and most delicious to eat.-Cor. N
