MILK COoKIEs.-TwO cups of
sugar, one cup ofbntter, one cup of
sour milk, three eggs, one tea
spoonful of soda sour milk is 80
little used since the advent of bak-
ing powders that few modern cooks
know howe to dispose of a cup Of
sour milk or cream. here is an
old time and most excellent receipt
for sour cream or milk cookies
Mix the butter and sugar together
add the milk and soda and the
eggs we'll beaten ; mix soft, roll
thin. When the cookies are cut
out slit graduated sugar over them
ard roll it by pressing the rolling
pin gently over the cakes, taking
care not to flatten them too much.

All sorts of rubbish raked and
scraped from feeding yards, chip
dirt, bark, ETC., half decayed leaves
from fence corners, and sod trim
mings from road-ways and walks,
or from around the fruit trees, com
posted with fresh manure will
quickly heat, and the entire mass,
after once or twice working over,
will be admirable for late crops OF
corn, corn.fodder and millet, or fol
tOp.dressing moving land as soon
as the grass is of. May is the
month in which tillage of the sur
face by the harrow and cultivation
tells more to the advantage of the
soil and crops than at any other
Weed seeds start quickly, and crop
after crop may be killed, while the
moisture of the soil and the action
of fermentinc manures and the
heat of the sun, all contribute to
those changes in the soil which
augm ent the supply of plant food
and all these are greatly aided by
stirring, mellowing and comminut-
ing of the surface Of the ground.
Of the action of clover when
ploughed under as a green manure,
a correspondent OF the Country
Gentleman says : "Clover is not
manure, but by its growth, and
especially by its decay, it renders
soluble for plant-fOod, matters
which without its aid might re-
main iDsoluble, thus indirectly
ameliOrahng the constitution OF
the soil on which it acts. Any
vegetable growth, green or dry,
buried in the earth, alters some OF
the inorganic matters with which
it comes in contact in decayIng,
and to that extent slowly improves
by increasing solubility. But ii
does add something, inasmuch as
it provides an assimilation for at
mospheric nitrogen
Very few farmers have garden
vegetables and fruits as fine in ap
pearance or in as great variety az
they may be found in the large
/ city markets, yet very few. city
people can obtain those things il
as fine and choice condition as tht
| farmer or country resident NIGH
have them if he was so disposed
We all ought to give more atten
ton to the kitchen and fruit garden
There is money, health and a great
deal of satisfaction in a really good
garden.

Farm and Household.
CARE OF HARNESSES.

Among the things that very
large proportion Of the farmers neg
lect are the harnesses that are in
every day use on the farm. Not
only is no effort made to preserve
:he leather, but it is very rare that
any examination Is made to see If
any portion is likely to break so
as a rule, the farmers attention is
first called to examine O work har-
ness by a breakdown, perhaps
when he is miles from home, and
very likely in the woods. where he
finds himself with no means to
make repairs, and so is obliged to
leave his load and 60 where he can
get means to make the necessary
repairs. With the best care there
is always a liability of having a
harness break in drawing heavy
loads, but the liability is not near
as great as when a harness is neg
lected.
To prevent the leather OF a har'
ness from drying upso az to crack,
it should be occasionally rubbed
with a cloth well saturated with
neat's.foot oil. 1t is not desirable
or best to fill the leather too full OF
oil, Tor too much will weaken rath-
er than strengthen the leather, es-
peeially that part Of a harness
which is subjected to a continual
strain. Harnesses need washing
quite as much as they do Oiling, for
the dust that is continually settling
upon them absorbs the oil that Is
in them, and thus dries the leather
so it will crack, letting the water
in every time it is out IN a rain.
Harnesses should be frequently
taken apart and thor Oughly washed
and when nearly dry thoroughly
rubbed with a cloth that has been
dipped in neat's.foot oil that has
mixed with it a very smauquantity
Of lampblack. No more oil should
be put on than will readily dry in,so
that when rubbed with a dry cloth
the harness will be perfectly clean
to handle.
Carriage harnesses are not neg
leeted so much as work harnesses,
but even these very rarely receive
the attention that they ought to,
for a harness that is properly cared
for will last more than twice as
long as q harness that is neglected.
There are some KINDS OF haIhese
soap that are excellent to wash a
harness with, which, if properly
used, will not only keep a harness
looking well, but will keep the
leather in very good condition with
out oiling more than once or twice
a year. Good harnesses should
never he kept where all of the dust
of the barn will settle on them, but
they should be kept in tight closets
where they will be free from dust
and odor. There are always stormy
days enough for the farmers to
clean up their harnesses in. In
cold weather the harness should
be taken into the workshop before
a good fire, so as to get the leather
well warmed before it is either
washed oroiled.-MaSS. PlOaghmaH.

some regard at least, for the welfare and
happiness of their wives, mothers, sisters
and daughters-as well rs to be Influenced
somewhat by their opinions.

The Rejection of Minister Kelley.

The subject of Minister Keiley's reiec-
ton by the Austrian court has been pro-
ductive of no little misconception and
msstatement. The Democratic press has
seduously endeavored to conceal the real
reasons for Mr.. Keiley's rejection, and the
administration has with equal care with
held official Information, so that the pub
lie has been largely left to conjectures A
flood of light, however, has recently been
cast upon the subject by eX. Minister to
Austria John NJ. Ffancis, who, in his own
paper, the Troy Times, exposes the
true nature of the charges against Mr..
Kelley and the falsity of the statements
made in his behalf by leading party jour
nails and politicians. The article is timely
and valuable in view of the resolution in
regard to keiley's rejection, recently in
troduced by Senator Vest.
Mr. Francis has both had access to the
diplomatic correspondence between the
governments, and has also been in posi-
ton to know personally the facts in the
case. He quotes from the official des-
patches certain passages which reflect I'M
favorably upon Secretary Bayard's man
agement of the affair.
1t is remarkable that the shallow en-
PLANTATION that Kelley was rejected be
cause his wife was Il Jewess-should have
obtained such general acceptance. Mr..
Francis shows the the absurdity of this
explanation. He says that the newspapers
of Vienna are nearly all under the direc
ton Of Hebrews, and all these
journals strongly condemned the ap
pointmeLt of Mr. Kelley, on the
ground of the injudicious and reck
less public utterances of the latter
"Would the Hebrew editors" says MIR
Francis, "have been likely to support the
objection to him if the real ground OF
such obiection-the main factor, and not
Il social incident affecting his own com
fort and convenience was that his wife
was II Jewess We may be sure that He
brews and Hebrew editors are not apt tC
do things in that way"
Mr. Francis's article virtually puts az
end to controversy on tbs subject. 1t i:
impossible to deny the facts adduced
from official sources IN support of Mr.
Francis's position. Mr. Bayard has acted
indlscreetly and disiugenuously in al
tempting to excuse and maintain an ap
pointment which was from the first di.'
tasteful both to the Austrian governmen
and the American public of both parties
