He Was Rather Deaf.

A young man, who had formed an at
tachment for young lady, went to her
fathers house to ask his consent to their
union. The old gentleman, who was
terribly deaf, was standing ON the door
step as his daughters lover approached.
The front door commanded view of
meadow in which COW was feeding,
and while Mr.. G. was looking in that d.
rection the youthful lover, whose heart
was overlooking with emotion, COM

gentleman, looking at the COW.

A Handy Glover Patch.

A first class clover patch, near to the
stables and pens, is quite an institution,
and farmers should endeavor to have one
as soon as possible, if they do not already
have it. Of course the horses and COWS
would like run in it, but then we do
not think that clover, either green or as
hay, is as good for them as other grasses,
but when it comes to pigs the case is
different There is scarcely anything
which will do pigs more good or viii CHI
they will relish more or keep in better
health than good, young clover. Where
1t can be done, it may be well enough to
cut and haul clover twice day to the
pigs, keeping them constantly in their
pens, but then rainy days will come when
1t is not very pleasant to NOW and haul
the clover, or other work may be so
pressing that time cannot be spared for
such work, and the pigs get neglected.
Of course by pursuing this plan more
manure is made, at least more available
manure, yet we would prefer to have a
well-fenced, near by clover patch, into
which turn the porkers, with good rings
in their nose to prevent roofing up the
sod, and then let them eat what clover
they need. On this mainly, with very
little, if any grain, and daily supply of
water, the pigs would thrive splendidly,
keep in fine condition and cost compare
lively little compared with those kept
penned up the year around. Aside from
this they would always be healthy ard
vigorous which is quite an item when
we consider the hundreds annually lost
by disease and disorders of different
kinds. In turning in the hogs, do not
forget that it is poor economy to turn
them In too soon, and that the grass
must have good start to enable it to
keep the herd going the entire season.
There should also be convenient shed
in the enclosure, under which the pigs
can go during the hot weather or hottest
part of the day and when it storms. A
few large trees in the enclosure are bene-
fetal as a protection against the heat to
the pnrkers, but email and young trocs
are apt to get destroyed, and where there
are valuable and young fruit trees in
such patch, it is better to cut and haul
the clover to the pigs, whether the pigs
be in pen or a separate field, than to
turn them into the clover patch, where
they would be sure to destroy or injure
the trees sooner or later. Where there
is large herd to be fed, it would pay to
keep a man whose special business or
work would be to see to the porkers and
any spare time could be devoted to other
labors. This prevents such work being
made secondary and prevents it from
being neglected or overlooked.-Penn-
SyLgaRad Farmer.

Household Hints.

Fruit should be well Toured, and
added the last thing.
Sour milk will make spongy cake;
sweet, close grained one.
Never, for the sake of economy, mix
Yesterdays and to days milk.
. When bread will not retain the dent
of the finger it is ready for the oven.
If you wish to have the best results
for cake-making, always use pulverized
sugar.
To remove mildew, take equal parts of
lemon Juice, salt, starch and soft soap;
rub on thickly, lay on the grass in the
hot sun. Renew the application two or
three times day.
A very thin coat of glycerine, applied
on both sides, will prevent window
pane from becoming obscured by steam
or hoar frost; in fact, glycerlne may be
used in this way to prevent film of
condensed moisture gathering on any ar
ticle.
Lemon juice whitens. The grated
rind of orange or lemon, put into thin
muslin bag with little juice, and
squeezed into the sugar and egg, will
color the frosting yellow. Strawberry
and cranberry syrup will color it pretty
pink.
Don't leave the oven door open, nor
set the cake on the top of the range, even
for moment-a mistake very easily
made by young housekeepers-but draw
the cake to the edge of the oven and test
it quickly, and be careful not to cool a
newly baked cake too rapidly by setting
it in the wind.
To remove grease spots from silk-
place some coarse brown paper-the soft
kind-on both sides of the spots, then
press carefully with hot iron; change
the paper often, as it absorbs the grease.
If the goods are so rich or delicate
that the iron is likely to injure them, try
friction by using raw cotton-rub the
spots off, changing the cotton often.
If the cashmere or cashmere is soiled or
stained in many places, rip the article
and wash it in tepid water softened with
pulverized borax. 1t can be made to
look as good as new.
