DOMESTIC VINEGAR MAKING. Per
haps the best vinegar, writes a corre-
spondent. Is made from cider. 1t takes
sometime to make unless In warm
weather the barrel is rolled out In the
sun. the vent opened, and some wire
mosquito netting IS nailed over the
opening to keep put insects. A small
quantity may be quickly made by fill
ing glass fruit cans nearly full adding a
little water and brown sugar, and put
ting them where ii is quite light. If

ally such thing hes been put in the ci-
der when it Is new, to arrest fermenta-
tlcn. 1t will be much longer in turning
to vinegar, and l think it is meyer so
good. Vinegar cen be made by mixing
one gallon of molasses with five or six
gallons of wateT-pure, soft water is the
bet. If a little molasses is spread on
a piece of brown paper as large as the
hand, and put In after it is mixed, 1t
seems TO answer the purpose of moth

called. / have had nice vinegar made
OF sweetened currant juice and water,
equal parts. 1t was rather thin, but
6ue favored. Where maple sugar is
manufactured, the richest vinegar may
be made from the rinsings of all the
dishes used, if saved in a suitable yes-
sci, with the addition of some maple
syrup, the whole thing being allowed to
fe,rlent. 1t is rs far superior to all
other kinds of vinegar as the maple
sugar is to other kinds of sweets.

a Campaign secret owen sr.r.

In the campaign OF 1854 the two san
didates for governor in q pivotal
Western State arranged for a series of
Joint discussions. Both men we're pop
ular, both of fine appearance and were
30 well matched In mental force and ss
orators that the contest between them
promised to be a magnificent one. For
several weeks the scales balanced even
~.
But one day the brilliant Republican
candidate came up silipg. He seemed
overcome and spoke laboredly. The
next day he was even less effective.
Later he was compelled to ask his OPP
ponent for a postponement of certain
appointments, which was granted. Be
fore the campaign ended he had aban-
doned the field altogether.
Meantime the Democratic candidate
continued his canvass, seeming to grow
stronger, cheerier and more effective
with each succeeding week. He was
elected. One evening In December
while entertaining several gentlemen he
said :
II will tell you a campaign secret
which gave me the election. With me

The STABLES IN SUMMER.-Mith sum-
mer stables the great fact seems to be
in the matter of ventilation, and the
close barn in the morning is often filed
with the fumes of pungent ammonia and
the odors OF the floor. Horses and cat
tie are not so liable to be frozen in the
winter as they are of being stuffed with
foul air III the summer. There are
many farmers who keep stables scrupu-
lousy clean at all seasons, and others
make spasmodio efforts to do so by us
ing great quantities of lime, plaster and
like material to absorb and "kilI' bad
smells. OF al material dry sand or dust
is best, as the caustic properties of lime
a1e absent and there can be no possible
damage done to the flesh OF the animals.
An uncleaned stable floor in summer
soon becomes the breeding place of in
Vulnerable flies and a generating source
OF impurity. Keep the stable doors
open or build rack doors and allow an
abundance Of tree pure air for the stock.

SCIENTIFIC.

Since the great earthquake tn the
Straits of Sunda during 1883. scientific
men have been trying to connect various
strange phenomena, seer then in diff
ferent parts of the world, with the up
.heaval at Krakatou. One of the most
wonderful of these manifestations was a
series of air-waves, which were set in
motion by the vast force of the explo-
sion. Starting at Krakatou, as If from
a common centre, they literally pushed
round the world at the rate of seven
hundred miles an hour. At the anti
Ipodes of the place from which they are
started. they of course, met, and the
force of the impact drove them back
again from whence they had come. But
this wss not all. so great had been the
disturbance in the outer envelope of
air which surrounds the world, that its
equilibrium was not restored until these
atmospheric waves had travelled three
or four times round the earth, each
time of course with gradually retarded
motion, until finally they stopped.
