An OmciaI Invitation.

A representative of the owners of the
Dueber Watch Company. Of Newport, KY,
a very extensive concern, was in this city,
Monday. looking into the merits of Spring
field rs a suitable location for the concern
mentioned. That lie was fayOrably i'm
pressed We cannot doubt, nor can We doubt
that the pueber company would be very
warmly welcomed if its managers should
drride to locate their works here.
President Will Thomas, of the city cOun-
ell. advised that body of the movements
aud designs of the company and the council
voted to invite Mr.. Dueber and his asSoci-
ateS 10 make a formal visit to the city. and
aup0inted good. strong committee TO re-
c,.iy,. them and show them about town. The
council has done the right thing. Spring
field is the best location for a manufacturing
concern in the country. 1t is in the geo
praphical center of America, has first class
TRANSFORMATION facilities in all directions and
has the reputation for producing the best
machines and other products that are put
uron the markets of the world. Then we
have all the modern features and advantages
of a large city. which are too numerous To

Growing Carrots.

The carrot makes such good food
for horses and mich COWS that at
least few should be grown on every
farm. They greatly aid digestion in
an animal and they increase the flow
of milk and give fine color to butter.
The rules that apply to cultivation OF
other root crops apply to carrots.
Have the soil Gle an and we'll prepared,
and give good cultivation to the crop.
The young carrot plant is weak at
first and the weeds must be kept
down. Do not cover the seed deeply.
The rows should be about fifteen
inches apart and the plants should be
thipned to three or four inches in the
row. The quantity of seed used for
sowing is from pound and half to
two pounds. The yield on good
ground is very large, sometimes as
high as eight hundred bushels. Ere
quently such crops are left to them
selves. They are not half put in in
the first place, and are poorly culti-
waited afterwards. This is not as it
should be. Whatever is worth doing
at all, is worth doing well. Let that
be the rule of our farming operations.

Making Pork sausages.

Hogs In Eastern Pennsylvania
where sausage is made in perfection,
are cut twice down the back, thus tax
ing out the spine. Then the kidney
with the leaf lard, the sparerib, the
tenderloin and sirloin are taken out.
The side is then cut IN three pieces, by
cutting close to the shoulder ard ham
Hams and shoulders are trimmed;
the sides are cut in stripes. lengthwise,
about an inch or an inch and a half
wide, 20 facilitate skinning Then
the lean meat is carefully eepa-
rated from the fat (which
is made into lard) and cut into strips
or small pieces. Some put in the ten
derloins and sirloin-the long lean
strip near the back. Others cut up
the shoulders, and some even the
hams, using the lean for sausages.
The lean meat is then seasoned, &C.
cording to taste. For fifty or sixty
pounds OF meat, use one pound of salt,
six ounces Of black pepper, half an
ounce OF cayenne pepper, and sage to
suit taste. We take fifty five pounds of
meat and no sage. Old pork is better
than young for sausage, an old SOW
being best. The meat la cut fine, and
must not become chilled, or it will be
hard and tough. Sausage may be
kept for summer use thus: Put it up
into cakes two Or three inches in diam
eter, and one inch thick, and fry un-
til thoroughly cooked. Pack the
cakes down in an earthen pot
pouring the hot fat over it, weight it,
and, after cooling, take weights off,
run lard over it, covering all, and set
away in a cool cellar. Insummer it is
taken out and fried slightly and used
hot for breah fast, making a very ap-
petizing dish in hot weather. Or,
pack it tightly in small earthen pots,
holding about three pounds. Put it
it in the oven and bake three hours.
Keep same as pots above described.
To use, put it in the oven and heat
thoroughly, and when cold slice. A
nice dish for tea.-Cor. Practical

The Christmas-Tree.

LILO
The use of the Christmas-tree, with
it's fruit of presents, is recent in En-
gland, and was introduced from Ger
many few years ago. There is great
dispute about it's origin, whether in
India, or whether it does not repre-
sent the tree Yggdrasil, or world-tree

navian mythology. But the use of
evergreens in England is as old as the
days when the Druids brought the mis-
tletoe from the woods with solemn
ceremony. In Stoves time every
mans house, and also the parish
churches, were decked with holm, ivy,
bays, and whatey or toe season of the
year afforded to be green, and the
conduits and standards in the streets

Paul's steeple on fire; and at
Leadenhall, in Cornhill, a standard Of
wood which was set up in the pave
ment and nailed full of holm and ivy
was torn up and cast down by the
malignant spirit (as was thought)
Oh Christmas eve, at the time the
Yule-log was brought in and lighted
with the last years brand, it was GUS

every house, in cottage and hall, with
bay. laurel, ivy and holly leaves. An
English gypsy told Charles G. Leland
the reason for using evergreens on

where our Saviour washiding Himself,
and so they keep alive all winter, and
look green all the year. But the ash,
like the oak, told of Him when He was
hiding, SO they have to remain dead
through the winter. And SO we gypsiee
