All housekeepers wish the plates
that are to be used for hot meals
brought to the tablehot; but SO much
injury is done to the plates by crack
ing the glazing and making them look
old and uncleanly that it is a grief to
the heart of the careful housekeeper.
All this may be remedied by never
putting plates on the range, on the
shelf over the range or in the oven to
warm. Have boiling water always
in the teakettle when cooking. 1t Is
constantly being needed. HAYES large
tin pan or small wooden tub at hand.
AS soon as the dinner is ready to be
dished up put the plates that will be
needed into the pan or tub and cover
them with boiling water. When all is
ready for the table and the family
gathered, take the plates out OF
the water, wipe them on a fresh,
clean cloth and place in a pile
before the head of the table. They
will be as hot as he will care to handle,
but not hot enough to barn the hand.
This prevents all possibility of defac-
ing the plates and insures perfectly
clean dishes with none of the remind
ers OF soapy dishwater, which is SO re-
pulsive.

Where Misery Abounds- Life in
New York.

Joe Howard in Boston Globe.
If ever a wrong demanded rightine
the cry of the cloakmakers, who ask
for the abolition of the middleman OF
sweater in their dealings with the
manufacturers, calls for serious atten-
ton. and their present condition for
instant relief. Indeed, it seems diff
cult to understand how these over.
worked operatives have endured SO
long as they have the ~wretchedly un
fair system that puts upon them the
burden of supporting the contractor,
who stands between them and the
manufactures for whom their labor is
done and of the meagre wages that is
the fruit of their toll.
Let me giveyou a picture ola cloak
makers work-room found in Hester
street. Thereon is less than ten feet
square, and here six women and four
sewing machines are driven by some
unseen power" among piles of cloaks
ready to be put together, and their
only light was from asmall gable win.
dow that opened upon the roof. The
air, sitting and odoriferous with sewer
gases, and the pale abject countenances
of the workers, as they bent over their
sewing, formed a frightful picture Of
physicalsuffering. BY workingsixteen
or more hours per day, two of these
women manage to turn out one cloak,
for which the sweater" or contractor
pays them so cents each. The style
and quality Of these cloaks are of the
latest and best, lined with quilted silk
or satin and trimmed with sealskin or
other expensive material, andsold for
from $35 to SIS in the retail stores.
A smaller room that opened from this
working room contained a sink from
which arose o. frightful stencil. The
room was without ventilation or light,
! save that whichcame thro ugh the door
from the other room, Upon the floor
was q mattress Which in appearance
partook Of the general filthto be found
throughout the whole building from
cellar up; and 1T was upon such a bed
and such quarters that these cloak
makers, tired and weary with lifelong
days work and with a scanty, il
any supper, threw themselves down
to sleep and awaited the coming days
| awful toll for bread.
1t is said that through the efforts
| OF the cloak manufacturers of this city
the business Of importing cloaks from
| Berlin has fallen from S6,000,00O IN
| 1884 to 81 300, 900 in 1885. Ii this
| result has been brought about by the
| misery, want and degradation among
| the cloakmakers, it were better that
| im~portations from Berlin had grown
to 10000 900 and the American
| manufacture ceased altogether. And

A correspondent writes: eff you
want to make your fowls feel good
and thankful give them hot corn for
supper-iust as hot as they can eat it.
To find out how hot it should be pick
up a handful and hold it tightly in
your closed hand; if it burns, ~ofcourse
it is too hot, but if after holding it q
minute it makes your hand feel warm
and nice it is just right. To heat the
corn put it in an iron pan DR. kettle in
the stove oven and stir it occasional
ly. II your wife has biscuit in the
oven you better put the kettle on the
back part of the stove and stir the
corn often. Mind now, / don't mean
that you are to put water in with the
corn; | mean hot, dry corn. If some
kernels at the bottom of the kettle
should get scorched, or even charred,
the hens will eat it, audit will do them
good, too"

Pumpkins may be made a most yalu-
able crop for feeding cows and are in
valuable for swine, rs they rehealth-
full and ~fattening and provide consid-
cradle heterogeneous element in their
seed which Offsets the want of thesein
the corn. The diuretic effect of the seed
is also useful in assisting to carry off
impure matter from the blood. This
effect of the seed, popularity suppos ed
to be injurious to cows, is only SO
when the seed is eaten in excessive
quantity ,as wheni it is thrown out from
pumpkins prepared for drying. An
acre OF pumpkins planted without any
other crop may be expected to yield
20 to 40 tons, according to the fertili-
ty of the soil, and the cultivation Civ
en-. Six and sever feet apart is agood
distance for the hills. This gives 1000
to the acre, and 516.pound pumpkins
to the Hill IS not an uncommon crop
under favorable circumstances. The
common field pumpkin is the best kind,
beingsoft and easily broken and having
no hard indigestible rind, as the cheese
pumpkin has.

Tell Your Wife.

If you are in any trouble oHquan-
Diary, tell your wife-that is, VT you
have one-all about it at once. Ten
to one her invention will solve your
difficulty sooner than all your logic.
The wit of woman has been praised,
but her instincts are quicker and keen
err than her reason. Counsel with
your wife, or your mother, or sister,
and be assured that light will flash
uponyour darkness. Women ar too
commonly adjudged as yerdant in all
but purely womanish affairs. Nophilo-
sophical student of the sex thus adj
Judges them. Their intuition. or in
sight, is the more subtle, and ii they
cannot see a cat in the meal there is
no cat there. In ~counseling me to
tell his troubles to his wife, we would
90 further, and advise him to keep
nothing secret from her. Many a home
has been. happily saved and many a
fortune relieved by mans full conf
dence in his better half. Woman is
far more a seer and prophet than man
if she be given a chance.

Daniel III. Hale, of Rowley, Mass,
whotook the first premium for dairy
butter, at the Essex county (Mass.)
fair last fall, gives the following state
ment. The butter was made from the
milk of grade Jerseys. The milk is
strained in shallow pans, in q cool
room, to stand until the animal heat
escapes. 1t is then removed to the
milk Don and allowed to standfrom
thirty-six to forty-two hours. 1t is
then SKINNED, and the cream put in
the cream jars, care being taken to
thoroughly stir it with each new adj
dition OF cream. When slightly acid
it is churned until the butter reaches
the granular state; then the butter
ter-milk is drawn of, and q pailful of
weak brine put nthe churn and churn-
ed for a few minutes. This is then
drawn off and another pailful OF brine
put in and churned as before. When
sufficiently washed, the butter is
taken from the churn before drawing
off the brine, as the small, cheesy
particles which sometimes adhere to
the butter are better removed
than by first drawing of the brine.
The butter is then worked over and
sailed, three-fourJhs of an ounce OF
salt to the pounds much care being
taken to remove allthe buttermilk. 1t
is then put in large earthen pans and
placed in a cool cellar until the next
morning, whenit is again worked over,
weighed and made into prints, and
again placed in the cellar until the
next day, when it is ready for market.
AS far as possible, the milk and cream
are kept at about so degrees through
the whole operation.

Tomatoe as Food.

1t is known that the essenc OF to-
mato made into a pill acts on the
liver, and to that extent must coun-
teract biliousness and all forms Of
fever. The free use of figs is known to
multidudes to obviate constipation in
a great many cases. Every intelligent
druggist knows that q teaspoonful Of
white mustard seed swallowed without
chewing is useful in the same direction,
has been used for that purpose for a
century, and for that reason is kept
in every good drugstore for sale. The
seeds pass from thestomach unchang-
ed, but are supposed to act on the
bowels delicately. The seeds OF the
tomato act in the same manner;
hence the fruit, while it is p~alatable to
the taste and nutritious to the body,
has a health-promoting effect on the
liver and the whole digestive system.

The Poor in Germany.

The condition OF the poor in Ger.
many is shocking. 'In 1867" says
q correspondent Of the PhIladelphia
Times, "when the first systematic
survey OF The housing Of the poor in
Berlin was scientifically carried out.
there lived 900, 900 human beings in
dwellings with but n room each that
could be heated, and besides these
there were go, Geo Others in dwellings
with no opportunity for heating
whatsoever. In the nineteen years
that have interviewed the population
OF Berlin has increased enormously,
and it is probably safe to assume
that to-day these numbers r too
small rather than too large, while IL

ulation vedindwellings belowground

The Ohio Experimental station last
year, made a careful test of twenty OF
the best early varities, as TO Yields and
quality. They found that Lees Fa-
vorite was the most productive, it
yielding 423 bushels per acre. And
the first ten in the twenty varieties
produced each over 800 bushels per
acre. The amount of each was in the
order named as follows: Lees Favor

The farmer is less disturbed than
any other occupation or professionally
the strikes and the contest that is be-
ing waged between the employed and
the employer. All things considered,
we don't believe any young nan makes
q mistake who decides deliberately
that "a farmers life is the lief OF
him. and decides to fit himself for it.
Not to settle down, living in a starva-
ton fashion, raising patch of corn,
beans, and potatoes; but who, with an
enlightened grasp, will 60 forth to his
work with mind fitted for the highest
achievements in this pursuit. Farm
ing has been raised from the ruts of
drudgery,a and has become a real science
requiring as much special preparation
as any other pursuit in life. Every day
we meet men with bent forms and
careworn, anxious faces,who arelook-
ing forward to the happy day when
their accumulstions shall amount to
enough to buy q farm, to which they
can retire and receive something ofthe
enjoyment of life before the curtain
falls. Ii it is a comfort to those who
have exhausted their best energies in
other pursuits, what must it be to
those who in their youth choose it as
a life calling2 Along with the hard
work there is Joy and comfort, a con-
tented mind, a healthy body, and if
riches do not come, their absence IS
more than made up by something far
more enduring.

One OF the best processes for sugar
curing is to rub the hams or baccea
thoroughly with hot salt, and allow
them to drain two or three days.
Then, for each fourteen or fifteen
pounds OF meat use ounce saltpetre
powdered, three ounce brown sugar
and one ounce black paper. Mix and
rub this in thoroughly, and the next
day rub in thoroughly with what Is
left of the previous mixture, three
quarters OF q pound Of coarse salt
pounded fine, to each fourteen pounds
of meat. la four days rub with a
pint Of molasses on sorghum sirup.
All this work, except the preliminary
rubbing with salt, to extract the
blood, should be in a Tub to save the
brine. The hams may now lie for a
month in this pickle, turning every
day or two. Ii you like q pint ofgood
vinegar may be added to thepicklefor
each fourteen pounds Of meat and
some persons add also an ounce Of
juniper berries to each pint ofvinegar.
This receipt makes the finest quality
Of hams and bacon, and forfamily use
we'll pays the extra trouble.
