FARM, GARDEN AND HOME.
Selling Fruits.

A few pears, apples, peaches, with a
bunch or two OF grapes, and a few
green leaves and flowers on the top,
all neatly arranged in small basket,
and costing at retail about % cents,
sell readily in our fruit stores for rs
cents to a dollar, simply because the
whole arrangement is pleasing and at
tractive and convenient to handle.
This same principal applies to the sell
ing OF almost everything, and fruit
growers might take hint or two from
the lesson.
Some fruit-growers also injure their
reputation as well as their pockets,
more than they are aware of, 10y dis
honest "topping-otf" To sell bar
rel OF inferior fruit for first-class, be
cause it's top is veneered with layer
OF good specimens, is as much fraud
as to sell plated-ware for solid silver.

What it Costs TO Carry the Mails.

Washington Cor. st. Louis Post dispatch.
1t Is not much OF n thing to carry a
letter or a hundred letters or few
newspapers on a train when it is being
run anyway-yet the railroad compa-
Mes aret TO bepaid the snug sum OF SD
600 600 for this service alone. Then
what do you suppose the fellows get
who take a dozen letters and a news
paper in a mailbag and swinging it
over SO mule carry them through
the country not penetrated by rail
ways? The star routes these are
called For carrying the mails on star
routes the modest sum of So. ZOO, 600
is allowed. Did you ever see the inside
OF travelling post-otfice, a car
fitted up 50 that mail clerks may work
IN 1t as 1t passes along, distributing
and asserting the mail which is to be
delivered at the various towns along
the line, thus saving much valuable
time that would have been consumed
In preparing the mails at the pOst-of-
flee where mailed? Well, their sala-
ries are 81, 300 600 a year. The sum
allowed for carrying mails on the
ocean Is 5000, 900. For printing post
age stamps the amount to be paid is
SlT4,0O0, and for post cards S239,-
600. The total cost OF the post-otlice
department, us put down III the bill,
will be tifty-two millions of dollars, or
about a dollar Il head per year for our
postal service. Cheap enough, Ell?
And the estimated receipts OF thepost-
Office department under the reduced
postal rate. for the coming year, are
over tifty-one millions.

To Clean Black cloth.

A writer in the Detroit Household
gives the following method: Take
your garment, well brush it, then
wash all the greasy spots, the collar
and cuffs also, with soap and warm
water and a few drops of liquid
ammonia. Then prepare, as follows,
one ounce OF ground logwood and a
piece OF soda the size of a small mar
BILE, and boil together in one quart of
water ten minutes; strain the liquor,
lay the garment on the table, and,
with a clean brush dipped into the
boiling stuff, well brush it until it is
saturated; thenget some clean hot wa
ter. on the surface OF which drop a
little olive oil, not too much, but
when wasted add a few more drops OF
oil and brush in the direction of the
grain; then hang them up, ii q clear
day, out of doors, if not, in q dry
room, and they will turn out a beauti-
ful black. | have made the boys suits
look equal to new in this way and to
last as long as two without it, and the
girls Jackets, too; in fact, any black
cloth garment, boys caps in particu-
lar, can be renovated by this process.

Ammonia Better than Soap.

y hOusekeeper says ammonia, when
purchased IN large quantities, is cheap
er than soap, and cleans everything it
touches. \ few drops in a kettle that
is hard to clean makes grease and
sickness fade away, and rObs the
work OF all its terrOrs. Let it stand
ten minutes before attempting to
scrape off. and every corner will be
clean. 1t cleans the sink, and pene-
trates into the drainpipes. Spots and
finger marks on paint disappear under
its magical influence, and it is equally
effective on floor or Oilcloth. though
must be used with great care on the
latter or it Will injure the polish.
There Is nothing to equal it in clean
ing the silverware, and it gives a high
er polish and keeps clean longer than
anything else. Ii the silver be only
slightly furnished put two tablespoon
fuls OF ammonia into a quart of hot
water, brush the FURNISHED articles
with it and dry with a channels. If
badly discOlOred they may need a lit
tie whiting previous to the washing
An old nail brush goes into the cracks
to polish and brighten. For fine mus
lin or delicate lace it is invaluable as
it cleans without rubbing the finest
fabrics. Put a few drops into sponge
bath in hot weather, and you will be
astonished at the result, as it imparts
GOODNESS to the skin. Use it to clean
hair brushes. and TO wash any hair or
feathers to be used for beds orpillows.
When employed in anything that is
not especially soiled, use the waste
water afterward for the house plants
that are taken down from their usual
position and immersed in the tub OF
water. Ammonia is a fertilizer. and
helps to keep healthy the plant it
nourishes. In every way, in fact.
ammonia is the housekeeper's friend.

Household Hints

Fish may be scaled much easier by
dipping into boiling water about a
minute.
A tablespoonful of trpentine boiled
with your white clothes will aid the
whitening process.
Brown bread cut in slices and fried
IN ham gravy makes IA good addition
to a dish OF ham and eggs.
Kerosene will soften boots or shoes
that have been hardened by water and
render them as pliable as new.
Kerosene will make your teakettle
as bright as new Saturate a WOODEN
rag and rub with it. 1t will also re-
move stains from vanished furniture.
BeeswaX and salt will make your
rusty tiatirOns as clean and smooth
as glass. Tie lump of wax in q rag
and keep 1t for that purpose. When
the IRONS are hot, rub them first with
a wax rag, then scOur them with a pa
per or cloth sprinkled with salt.
Almond sauce is very nice with cot
tage pudding. Pound one and a half
ounce OF blanched sweet almonds and
two bitter almond; add to these hall a
pint otsweet cream and a tablespoonful
and a half OF sugar Put them into a
saucepan; add the yolks of two beat
en- eggs; stir all together over boiling
water until thick as custard.

Draining Prevents Drought.

Some OF the journals of the day are
cautioning the public against what
they suppose will be the effect of carry
ing the practice to an excess, namely
the loss OF crops by the drought thus
produced and il widely adopted the
country becoming as dry as a desert.
Nothing can be more erroneous,
says the Country Gentleman, and the
writers who indulge in these remarks
have adopted the opinion by reason
in their rooms, and not from actual
field experiment.
Nothing fits the soil better for en-
during drought nrendering it capa-
bile OF being finely pulverized, in which
condition it will hold moisture, and
give 1t OFF as wanted by the growing
plants. Surplus water, on the other
hand makes mortar OF the soil, which,
when dry, becomes baked hard like a
brick. Such a soil cannot be rendered
fine and mellow; it is either too dry
to work, or else it is broken up into
hard clOds. We have had an Oppor-
tunity for seeing this result, both ways
IN regions OF country where naturally
strong soils from surplus water were
rendered nearly incapable OF cultiva-
ton, and which were afterward CON
verified into mellow and highly produc-
tive land by thoroughly underdrain
ING.

Water for Mich Cows.

\ writer in the New Hampshire In
dependent Statesman has this to say
on the above subject: | would like to
call attention OF farmers and dairy
men to a subject that has not received
the attention " hich think it demands.
We know there are properties in waters
OF some localities that affect people
unfavorably; while the waters in other
places are OF a healthy character. |
have in my mind alocality where there
Is, and ever has been, a great amount
OF sickness; and the only reason that
can be assigned is the character OF the
water. In proof OF this, there is an
excellent spring in the place, and the
families using its waters are healthy.
and generally live to an advanced age.
Now my question is, are not cattle
differently affected by different kinds
Of water? Take our mich COWS, and
does not the quality and quantity OF
the milk depend much on the water
they drink? May it not also affect
the flavor OF both milk and butter?
Good dalry-men are very careful not TO
let their COWS browse on weeds and

lIet into its last resting place. \ good
story is told of the DAYS OF the draft in
1868, when Capt. George B. --, OF
Georgetown, was attached to Provost
Marshal Johnson's office. Capt.
George loved a practical Joke as well
as his friend Deputy Sheriff p.
The two often crossed swords, and on

ing him to burn for a speedy revenge.

day soon afterward by able-bod;ed
citizens who hung breathleSsly on the
turn of the wheel which was to decide
their fate. Among the names drawn
and read was that OF a citizen who had

'Well, no, +" said the dry old sheriff,
"but | can find theman that concealed
him" is that so. Come right along
Daniel, and We'll put him through. 1t

eyes twinkled with fun. "was Capt.
Jerry Perkins" For a moment Capt.

the truth flashed over him and the

Food for Laying Hens.

Mr.. A. c. Hawkins told the Massa-
chusettS farmers, at meeting OF the
state board, that they should feed the
fowls at daylight each morning, all
they would eat, of mixture one-third
IN bulk OF corn and oats ground to-
gether III equal parts; one-third wheat
mlddlmgs, one-siXth boiled potatoes,
and One-sixth meat scraps or cooked
meat. Commenting on the above, the
Rural New Yorker says: eff this is
mixed with skim-milk so much the
better. Next, cut or cnop nice clover
hay, put it into a tight barrel and vet
it with boiling water, covering tightly
and letting it stand till one / O'Clock,
when the fowls should have all they
will eat, which will be a large quantity.
At the same hour give q feed of corn,
broken or cracked, mixed with wheat
or wheat screening. This should be
thrown among the litter, that they
may have plenty Of exercise in scratch
ing for it. Just before dark feed all
the whole corn the fowls will eat, that
they may have something that will be
nearly all night in digesting With all
these and plenty OF fresh water, or,
better still, milk, ground oyster shells
and green food, such as cabbage,
mangees, potatoes or turnips, and
with quarters kept clean, warm and
we'll ventilated, they will reward the
owners with baskets full OF eggs"
