SPoNGEs.-Sponges long in use are
sometimes affected with slIminess,
which is caused by the sponge not being
wrung as dry as possible Immediately
after use. When this has once formed it
increases rapidly. A contemporary says
that one of the most effective recipes
for cleansing sponges, and certainly one
of the cheapest, is strong solution of
salt and water, in which they should
soak for n few hours and then be thor
oughly dried. Sponges should not be
left in a sponge dish; they should be
kept suspended where the air can freely
circulate around them. Quick evspora-
tton of the moisture is the main thing
to keep them in good order.

10 CLEAN PAINr.-There is a very
simple method to clean paint that has
become dirty, and if our housewives
would adopt it, it would save them a
great deal of trouble. Provide a plate
with some OF the best whiting to be
had, and have ready some clean, warm
water, and Il piece of flannel, which dip
INTO the water and squeeze nearly dry;
then take as much whiting as will ad-
here to 1t, apply it to the painted sur
face, when a little rubbing will instant
Iy remove any dirt or grease. After
which wash the part well with clean wa
ter, rubbing it dry with soft chamols.
Paint thus cleaned looks as well as
when first laid on, without any injury
TO the most delicate colors. 1t is far
better than using soap. and does not
require more than hall the time and Ia

them carefully until they cook to

fat. Fillets of fish, with bones in, may
be treated the same way. By this
method the fish are well favored and

supply good food for the muscles, but

ounce of pearl ash. Boil the whole un-
til 1t is pretty thick, and spread some of
it upon the scorched part. Allow it to
remain until dry, then scrape 1t off and
wash. Two or three applications will
restore the linen, unless so much scorch-
ed that the fibre is destroyed. A little
pipe clay, dissolved IN the water used
for washing linen will clean it thorough
iy. with half the amount of soap and
great dIminution of labor. The article

AGRICULTURE.

FEEDING AND CARE OF SwNE.-Nons
of our farm animals answer more
quickly TO, or yields more profit from
good treatment, than swine; and, IN
many localities, none are more neglected
than these homely, but useful animals.
In the West where hogs run at large
and follow the droves of feeding steers.
their management after they are weaned
is very simple, but where hogs are kept
in yards or pens and are expected to
subsist mainly on skinned milk, or the
refuse from the kitchen, more care is
necessary and their wants must be care
fully attended to, or they will not thrive
as they ought. The most important
thing to remember in feeding hogs Is,
that there is no such things as stock
order, the pig that is not so fei that 1t
gains in weight continually and rapidly,
is not profitable animal, and soon eats
more feed than it is worth. Many far
mers keep a pen of store hogs IN low
condition through the winter, at dead
loss; the pigs do not grow, and yet eat
almost as much as the fattening hogs.
Here, again, we come TO the flood OF
support" The large ! art of the pigs
is needed to keep him alive, and pre-
vent him from going backward; and
very little more food judiciously y applied,
will usually make all the difference be-
tween profit and loss in keeping pigs.
