 To make good rusks take one pint of milk, one cup of yeast; mix it thin; when light add twelve ounces of brown sugar, two ounces of butter, four eggs, flour sufficient to make stiff as bread; when risen again, mold and spread it on tins.-T'he Caterer.
 A writer in the Keeper keeps what he calls homemade tinc- ture of iron" in bottle of water in which a handful of rusty nails has been placed. A little of this placed in the hens drinking-water adds greatly to their health, he thinks, but it may be doubted.
 -Whitewash is to some extent a dis infectant, and should be used in cellar and kitchen closets not less than once a year, twice being better. A good white wash is made of one peck of slacked lime, pound and half of white vit- riol, pound of salt and half pound of melted glue, the salt and glue keep ing the wash from rubbing off For cellars the slacked lime is sufficient Albany Journal.
 For milk pudding put one quart of milk on where it will cook slowly. Wash half teacupful of rice and stir it into the milk, and occasionally stir this until twenty minutes before using; then put a tablespoonful of sugar and small piece of butter, and bake twenty minutes. This, sometimes called poor mans pudding, is wholesome and pal atable. It is better to be three hours in cooking. g.-Boston Globe.
 -Horseradish should be planted as early in the season as possible, or just as soon as the ground can be properly prepared, and if large roots are desired the soil can not be made too rich and deep. In planting always use sets. These are the rootlets or branches of the main root, which are too small for table use. They are cut into pieces about four or five inches in length, and in such manner that there will be no danger in setting the roots upside down. Sets planted upside down will never make good roots.-Pruirie Farmer.
 Sweet Waters: Six eggs, one pint four; two ounces melted butter, one and one-half cups powdered sugar, one cup milk and one teasponful nutmeg. Beat whites and yelks separately and very stiff, rub the sugar and butter to- gether, and work in first the yelks, then the milk and then flour and whites. Bake in well-buttered wafer or waffle irons very quickly, browning as little as possible. Roll them while hot upon a round stick, not larger than your little finger, slipping it out care fully when the cake takes the right shape. These little cakes are an &C., ceptable addition to any tea or supper table, and look well among fancy cakes in basket.-BOstOn Budget
