Pigs Head SOuse-.-Fancy Biscuits.

Dear HousehoM:-With your permits
sion l will reply to question of Mrs.
j. G. Suffer, asking for some way to
use the pigs head, instead of making it
into hogs head-cheese. think nice
way is to make it into souse. Boil I'M
til very tender, then remove the bones
and with knife hack up the meat just
a bit; then, while hot, put in vinegar,
salt and pepper. l use the bucks or
pigs feet with the head. l prefer it
cold, but it is nice either way. -
will also give recipe for biscuits which
is nice and initiates Parker house rolls.
To quart of flour rub in butter the
size of an egg, handful of sugar, three
tea-spoonfuls of cream of tarter, one and
one-half of soda; mix with milk; roll
out until about an inch in depth, then
spread soft or melted butter over the
dough; then lap one side upon the
other in a half-moon shape; cut with a
tin and bake. Try it and let us know
the result. Mrs. l.. H.

Keeping Fruit.

An exchange says: "The best fruit
cellars are fitted up with drawers and
bins in which to store the fruit. These
are made with Slated bottoms and
shallow, so that the fruit may not be
stored in them over six inches deep,
and so that the air can circulate freely
through it. This is not only favorable
to the keeping qualities of the fruit,
but also enables it to be closely watched
and the decaying specimens to be the
more easily and carefully picked out"
We do not believe that the free circu-
lation of air through packages of fruit
is favorable to its keeping. On the
contrary, such circulation causes the
fruit to shrink, shrivel and lose in
weight, quality and brightness of
color. In short, it is about the best
way to spoil apples that could be in
vented. Yet we believe that in shall
low bushel boxes, piled one above
another, is pretty good way to keep
apples. Slated bottoms are obiec-
tionable, as the edges of the Stats mark
the apples; but even in Slated boxes,
if piled evenly, there is no more chance
for air to circulate than in a barrel.
There is but very little circulation of
air in tightly-closed cellar, any way.
especially if the rooms above are kept

lowed to get colder than the cellar, it
will settle and force the warmer cellar
air up, and if this continues long the
cellar will freeze. A good deal has been
said and written against keeping veget-
ables in cellars beneath living-rooms,
on the ground that their exhalatons are
unwholesome, and that they penetrate
and pervade the house. This is true
when vegetables decay, because then
they send off enough gaseous matter to
so increase the tension of the cellar air
as to force it upwards. But sound veg
etables in a cool cellar exhale almost
nothing except trifle of watery vapor,
which is no more unwholesome to
breathe than the vegetables are to eat.
Popular hygienic writing is such a
medley of folly and Inexperienced
fact that it is usually more harmful
than helpful. But fortunately it is so
contradictory that it hardly has any eff
feet upon the public mind, except to
confuse and mudde it.

The American Garden.

Our old friend E. II. Libby, formerly
of the Scientific Farmer, and since con-
nected with the American Agricult,wist
and other papers, seems to be making
a success of the american Garden,
which he recently bought of B. X.
Bliss & Sons. He claims for the Gar
den a circulation of upwards of $4,000,
and has greatly improved and en-
larged what was before an excellent
horticultural periodical. He announces
that after January LIST, 1886, the price
of the Garden will be raised to 50 a
year, but subscribers will be received
until that date at the old price, one dol
lar. Those of our readers who desire
such a publication should send for a
specimen copy to E. II. Libby, Green
field, Mass.

The One Thing that Fraud Cannot
Counterfeit.

am surprised to note the following
response to an inquiry in the Farmers
Club of late Rural Ne,o- Yorker " 1t
is probably true that men, without the
aid of bees, now make and sell comb
honey in which neither wax nor honey
is used: that the comb is made of par
afline and filled with substance like
honey" Now, Mr.. Editor, l wish to
say that the above is not only not prob
ably true, but that it is utterly absurd,
mischievously false and entirely inn
possible. No such thing has ever been
done, and it is very certain that no
such thing ever can be done. Only
natures deft and delicate fingers can
fashion the beautiful comb honey.
Comb honey is one thing that fraud
cannot counterfeit. Whoever pur-
chases the beautiful, white, incompar-
able comb honey may be sure that he
has natures product, pure and genuine.
A few years ago Professor II. w. Wiley,
now chemist of the agricultural de-
partment at Washington, published an
interesting article on sugar in the Pop
ulor Science Monthly, in which he made
the above statement, apparently in all
soberness. Afterward, when Professor
Wiley was called upon for proof of
what was palpably absurd to any one
who knows the real nature of comb
honey--a substance which is clearly in
imitable-he replied: {" only said it as
scientific pleasantly" This statement
was apparently as candid and earnest
as any part of the article, and so was
widely copied by the press of the coun-
try, and now, like all untruthful state
ments, it is ever and anon lifting its
ungracious head only to do mischief.
Comb honey owes its excellence to its
very delicate structure. The cell walls
of the comb are only 1-140th of an inch
in thickness, and thus the delicate wax
breaks up in the mouth almost without
any eXtraneous force, and just serves
to reduce or dilute the exquisite honey,
and so becomes one of the most coveted
articles of diet 1t seems almost like
sacrilege to say that such an incompara-
BILE article can be made artiticially.
As before stated, it is utterly impossi-
BILE, never has been done and never
can be done. l hope, Mr.. Editor, you
will publish this correction at once,
and that the many papers that have
spread the error may be equally quick
to fling out the correction; even then
much wrong will be done, for, as we all
know, falsehood will traverse the globe
while truth is hitching up her horse

A Blast Against Queen Anne.

We have for some time "run of an
idee - that it was necessary to say
something about the single palaces"
with which the suburbs of cities and
streets of our country villages are being
disfgured, and which are now cropping
up on some of our farms. But we have
put the matter off, until now we find it
better handled than we could do it by a
correspondent of the Mirror, who says:
d" 1 notice that some of the agricul-
tural papers are giving plans for coun-
try cottages, and / wish to enter pro-
test against advising farmers to con-
struct those absurd denominations called
Queen Anne cottages. There is moth
ing homelike in their appearance and
nothing inviting about them, except to
the antiquarian or curiosity-hunter.
They are rowdyish, uncouth, incon-
deeming feature about them is the fact
that they will soon rot down. If CITY
gentleman wants to build dwelling
house, dog kennel, pig-pen, poultry
house and dove-cOte all in one, / have
no objections, and he has some excuse
for it. But in the country, where land
is cheap and the neighbors are all re-
spectacle, such structure is an insult
and disgrace. Did you ever explore
the upper regions of one of these i'm
posing Tin one sense) structures, the
roofs of which were ornamented with
luthern windows set in like toads' eyes?
If so you have found that the room, the
beauty and the convenience were mostly
on the outside. | have no objection to
the ladies wearing their hats in any
shape that can be obtained by poking
the head of scarecrow into a stump
fence. Hats do not last forever. But
home is permanent institution and
should not be modelled after any ridicu-
lous within that has no symmetry or
convenience to recommend it. / APP
peal to any man who rides in the coun-
try to give his impressions when COM
ing in sight of farmers home. Do
you see anything that has more of an
air of solid responsibility than a two
story house surrounded with trees and
flowers? These mushroom cottages
must have no trees to hide their beauty?
The leaves would lodge in the seams
and crevices and rot the wood or rust
the tin, and the roof would leak, and it
will anyway in short time. If you
must and will have part of your rooms
in the second story, build your walls
high enough to admit of it, and then
put on whole roof as near level as is
consistent with durability, and put the
adornments and incongruities in the

Sausage.

Dear Household: In making sausage
/ find it much more convenient to have a
rule for measuring thanto weigh ounces
and parts of ounces; perhaps some of
the sisters will, too. For twenty-five
pounds of meat, twenty level table
spoonfuls of salt, eleven of sage, four
of black pepper and five of summer
savOry, if you like that flavor; pack it
in the spoon as you level it. After the
meat is chopped put in the seasoning;
warm and mix thoroughly; make into
balls and put away where it will harden
but not freeze. The next day cut in
slices, fry and pack. If packed when
it is new it will have a new, fresh taste
all summer that it cannot have if one
waits few weeks, or until spring, and
then packs what is left from the win
ter's supply. Pack in stone jar, tin
sap-tub or anything convenient; melt
some lard and pour in the jar; fry the
slices of sausage enough to eat; put in
layer ana cover with cotton cloth,
so that when you want to get it out you
can take hold of the cloth and pull up
a layer without breaking the slices;
pour in more lard (be careful not to
leave any air-bubbles under the cloth),
then more sausage, ETC., until all is
packed; cover with lard, tie paper
over it and it will keep good all summer.
l pack the hams the same way as soon
as they are smoked, only 1 have never
put cloths between the layers, but pack
as close as l can. Put weight on
while it is warm to expel all air. When
/ take out some 1 heat the lard that
comes with it hot and pour it back.

of soda, sour milk and ginger.
Corn CAKE.-One pint of Indian
meal, one pint of wheat flour, two eggs,
two cupfuls of sweet milk, one cupful
of sugar, one tablespoonful of melted
butter, one tea-spoonful of soda, two
tea-spoonfuls of cream of tartar, little
salt. AUNT SUE.

Protecting Roses in Winter.
Warren, Vt.

In the northern regions lay down
the rose bushes and cover with ever
green boughs; in places where the COM
mon brake can be had it is we'll to col
lect it, as it makes an excellent protect
i've covering. Old leaves, of course, can
be used for the same purpose, and there
is nothing better; the difficulty is to get
enough of them. First, bend down the
rose shoots and fasten the tops to the
ground with peg, then draw soil up
about the base as high as possible, and
afterwards cover with whatever mate
rial is to be obtained, keeping it in
place by poles of sufficient weight to
prevent displacement by the Wind

Is per acrel. as follows:

OF course single tests are not conclu-
sive, even when instructive, and it is
evident that this experiment was tried on
land in good order, since the crops were
fair with no manure. For crop of oats
no manure seemed to be needed, since
the gain of eleven bushels on the fertil-
izer without phosphoric acid over no
manure was within the reasonable limit
of accidental variation on small plots.
Corn actually did better without potash
and nitrogen, but failed badly without
phosphoric acid-worse even than with
no manure. Beans, too, made the same
report-worse with fertilizer destitute
of potash than with none at all. BY
these tests, carefully repeated on his
worst worn land, farmer may in time
get to know what that land most needs
at that time, but there is good deal of
work in it,

Notes on the Sugar Maple.

We have letter from Mr.. Wheeler
of Waterbury, who has given so much
study to this subject, in which he re-
plies to a question of ours appended to
an article of his which appeared in this
department some time ago. The article
was headed GA Prolific Sugar Tree"
and the question referred to was an
inquiry as to whether the temperature
of the water of spring near it was
taken by a thermometer, as Mr.. Wheeler
thought the GOODNESS of the water
greatly influenced the flow and the
sweetness of the sap. Mr.. Wheeler
says:
"The question you asked me was
this: Has the GOODNESS of the water in
these observations been tested ther-

Apple Jelly.

Condensed cider or apple jelly is
about the purest sauce for family use.
1t finds ready sale in many markets. 1t
can be eaten as sauce, or can be con-
verted into palatable sweet cider by
the addition of water. 1T is good way
to condense bulky lot of apples into a
small compass. The manufacture is
easy, consisting simply in driving the
water from the cider by means of evap-
grafton. The jelly can be shipped in
any kind of package, and will keep well
in any climate. So says the Farm and
