Canning ,UithOut Cans.

The published results of Tyndall's ex-
pertinent iell under the eye Of DIR. Chase
of Thomaston, Me. At his suggestion,
Mrs. Chase put up sever i gallons of Dam
son plums In stone pots with but little su-
gar, the jars being only covered with cot
ton batting. The plums kept perfectly,
until opened one or two years afterward.
Mrs. Chase told US of the result, and We
have for three years put up berries Ia the
same way, and never had jar fail to keep.
List year we opened in the presence Of
several people II jar of bueberries that had
been put up just Two years, and found them
in nice order. Directions-Use croces,
stone butter jars. or any other convenient
dishes. Prepare and cook the fruit pre-
cisely as for canning 10 glass jars; fill
your dishes with the fruit while it is yet
hot, lapd Immediately cover with cotton
batting securely tied on. Remember that
all putrefaction Is caused by the invisible
creatures in the air. Cooking the fruit ex-
pels all these; and As they cannot pass
through cotton batting, the fruit thus pro-
tected will keep an indefinite period. The
writer of this has kept berries, cherries,
plums and many other kinds of fruit for
two years with no cover save batting on
the jars.

Cream Testing.

Since the Introduction of cream testing,
we find creamery patrons are not willing
to sell cream by measure, with here and
there an exception. We occasionally hear
an iptimation that, as the testing is done
by the creamerymen, it gives them an OPP
portunity to take advantage of the pat
rops. Now such Is not the case. Every
patrnn can test his cream at home. and
many do so every week. We do not hear
much of it since we have been working on
the test plan, but while purchasing cream
by the inch we used to bear, week after
week of farmers tests over-running the
inch measure. Now, those who used to
oyer-run get the benefit Of the over-run,
and are satisfied, and those who now COM
plain are those who have low per cent.
and they frequently labor under an error,
and are really getting pay for pound of
butter to aDAinch Of cream, although the
per cent. is much less than hundred.
when the cream is measured for the test 1t
includes all the milk taken of with the
cream, and, as milk will not make butter,
an inch of the mixture will not make
pound of butter, and the more milk the
lower will be the per cent. Children and
Others who are not careful often do the
skimming, and even the careful wife may,
In a hurry, or may not care for small
amount Of skim milk. We believe that
large majority Of creamerymen will give
their pstrons all that their cream will make
bv the test.

Il Five ACre Farm.

Prof L. B. Arnold, who lives within
three miles Of Rochester, owns and cuiti-
Yates a little farm of five acres. These
five acres, Prof. Arnold says, could be
made to yield him good living. Last
year his corn crop gave him S65; his pota-
to crop yielded but $35, because the pota-
toes were scabby. The net proceeds OF ~
hens were $500 The acre of newly-sst
raspberries gave him Sis; the root crop
$50, and the apple crop $3.50. Besides all
this he adds from $50 TO S75 worth OF things
from the garden, fruit crop, bees, etc.
This account does Not include COW food
in the form of grass, fodder, corn, etc fof
summer and winter use, amounting to e.
nough to keep one cow half the year. All
this makes 5000 from five acres. He keeps
but one COW; wholly on the soiling system,
there being not rod of pasture on tn"
place. The COW is a very profitable mem
Der of the concern, and If men with fami-
lies could realize how the value of such an
animal, and could believe thata COW and
a pasture are not necessarily inseparable,
more family cows would be kept. One a.
ere is in apple trees, one or two in CO IN,
manfred in part by poultry manure; one
to raspberries (Doolttle), grown chiefly for
drying. 1t takes two and one half to rec
AID one-half quarts of berries for pound
of evaporated fruit. The usual garden
crops are growing In abundance.

Agricultural and Household
Matters.

The best way to secure good grass crop
next season is to top-dress moving land
Immediately after haying. Composts COM
posed of part loan, rich earth and manures
are less liable to be deprived of their fertil-
izing properties by the sun, air and rains.
II should be applied as evenly as possible.
The use of brush harrow is excellent to
break the small Jumps and bring the Dress
Ing nearer to the roots of the grass. Some
recommend, when the land becomes bound
or messy, so as to diminish the growth Of
the grass, if 1t be not convenient for the
farmer to break it up, to cut or scarify 1t
with spiked roller or, If the farmer does
not possess this, to use a heavy loaded har-
row, when the ground is softened by rains
or by the coming out Of the frost; then
dress with some short rotten manure, suit.
ed to the soil, bush and pass roller over
it. There is no danger of destroying the
roots of the grass by this operation.
Though they are broken they will be speed
removed, new offsets will be more plenti-
fully formed, and the crops will rise with
renewed yigor.

Horse Stables.

The condition and health of a horse de-
ponds very much upon the kind of stable
1t is kept In. There are horses which sui
fer from disease of the eyes, from coughs,
from scratches and other skin diseases, all
of which are produced by the pungent foul
air in the stables. Farmers and others
who have horses, will take pains to keep
their carriages and harness protected from
the strong ammoniacal air of the stables
lest the leather may be rotted or the var.
nish dulled and spotted; and ~ the same
time they win wonder why their horses
cough, or have weak eyes or moon-blind-
ness, or suffer from other diseases, which,
If they would only think for q few minutes
they would readily perceive are due to the
foul air the animals are compelled to
breathe every night In the yesr while con-
fined In close, badly ventilated stables.
The remedy is very easy. The stable
should be kept clean; this will prevent the
greater part of the mischief; and 1t should
be well ventilated. The floor should be
properly drained, so that the liquid will
not remain on 1t, to be absorbed, and de-
compose, and produce the pungent vapors
of ammonia which are so injurious to the
eyes, nostrils, throat, and lungs, and this
liquid waste should be carried away to
some place where 1t can be absorbed and
utilized. The floor should be washed off at
least twice week with plenty of water
and then literally sprinkled with finely
ground gypsum (plsster) which viii COM
bine with the ammonia, and fix it. A So
luton of copperas (sulphate Of irop) will
have the same result. Lastly the floor
should be supplied with absorbent litter,
which should be removed when it is soiled.
Ventilation should be provided in such n
way as to avoid cold drafts. Small open
ings, which may be easily closed with
slide, may be made in the outer wall near
the floor, and similar ones near the ceiling,
or in the roof, through which the foul air
can escape. Pure air is of the utmosti m
| portance to the well-being of horses. As
an instance OF 1t may be mentioned the
fact that In the Engligh cavalry stables a
| complete system of ventilation reduced
the average loss of horses from the deadly
disease, CHAMBERS, from one hundred and
thirty-two per thousand yearly, to nine in
the thousand; and when a similar improve
ment was made in the French army stables
the percentage of death was reduced In a
| similar ratio, with still larger decrease of
| milder ailments.

In TIE SICK RooM.-Never stand at the
foot OF sick bed and survey the patient.
All figures loom large to fevert eyes, and
by the side of the bed are only partially
seen, and do not annoy with the sense Of
too much presence. Do not open the door
very slowly, for then the attention is
strained, specializing rs to who the next
conner can possibly be after all this prepar-
alton and with such cautious approach.
Low but clear tones, quiet but sure move.
ments, and rapid, rather than slow, are
great relief to any patient who is blessed
with practical nurse. Silence Is best un-
til you can disclss matters In another
room; but If you speak, speak out and
make no mysteries about anything. In a
severe illness the nurse must watch her pa
eHt steadily, but not seem to be looking.
Iu convalescence it frequently soothes the
invalid to have the nurse seated at the
window, apparently looking out. This
frees the faculties from the tension that
the sense of being watched usually gives.

Health Hints.

Be abstemious.
Seek the sunlight.
Exercise regularly.
Breathe fresh air free.y.,
Keep the head cool and the feet warm.
Work is good medicine. for an uneasy
miul.
Never begin journey until breakfast
has been eaten.
Alcohol retards digestion, and also rem
ders it incomplete.
If you must borrow something, let that
something be other than trouble.
free use of lemon juice and sugar will
almost invariably relieve cough.
Always keep the back, especially be-
tween the shoulder blades, we'll covered ;
also keep the chest well protected.
II those who feel poorly in the spring
or at any other time of year, in fact
would eat lemon before breakfast every
day for week-with or without sugar, as
they like-they would find it better than
any medicine.
