Look also to the security of your potatoes,
and to saving them, for they will probably

nurse the cows that come in early, and
care well for mares in foal and ewes about

domestic animals, and especially their
progeny.

having had placed in his hands by an East
India missionary the formula of simple
vegetable remedy for the speedy and per-

Catarrh, Asthma and all Throat and Lung
affections, also a positive and radical cure
for Nervous Debility and all nervous Com

curative powers in thousands of cases, has
felt it his duty to make il known to his suf-

and desire to relieve human suffering,

Drain around the wells. Allow all sur.

The ground for carrots and parsnips
should be free from small stones. The
best soil is q light sandy loan. The roots
would grow forked and irregular if they
should meet with distractions in the soil.
A twenty-acre farm at Carrolton, Mich,

NUMBERS aud values of Cattle.

ana values OF
The extension of cattle-growing, accord
ing to Statistician Dodge's recent report,
has been normal, corresponding very
nearly with increase of population.
Though prices have been low and heavy
losses have occurred in some of the ranch
districts, there is an abiding faith in the
future OF the business, grass being the
cheapest and most abundant source of
beef, yielding perhaps nlne-tenths OF all
that is produced in the country. Corn has
q relatively small share in the beef-making
in any country. The northwestern states
are giving more and more prominence II
cattle, the wheat interest relatively declin-
ing in the older settlements,
Mich COWS are receiving rather more at
tentioD than in recent years in the eastern
aud middle states. and are increasing
every where with the advance Of popula-
ton. There is some recuperation from the
depression felt in cheese. making districts,
New York especially, where prices of their
p oduc;s ruled so low.
From 1879 70 1884 the annual estimates
OF prices of milch cows and other cattle
advanced yearly, and the decline has since
been uninterrupted, without exception for
either class of stock. The fall in milch
COWS has been over per GEN., and in oxen
and other cattle decline Of 10 per cent. in
the last year
The belief is expressed, in the report
quoted from, that the stock interests of the
United States are in a comparatively pros.
porous condition, with a prospect OF ad-
vance in prices, esp ecialiy those of cattle.

quickly, and the bread cut Immediately,
before the knife has time to cool. A nap.
kin should be laid double on the plate
where the warm slices are laid. Rich cake
will not crumble IL cut with knife dipped
in hot water.
Herring Salad-Wash aud bone three or
four smoked herrings. lay them in milk
for two or three hours, then dry and cut
them in long strips; make dressing of
mustard. oil and vinegar, and finely
chopped Spanish onion, that has no after
odor; pile the herrings on dish, put
slices of cold boiled potatoes and picked
cucumber or gherkins round them, and
pour the dressing over; garnish with cut
up lettuce or celery and hard boiled eggs.
Lemon Pudding three eggs, well
beaten, add the Juice of three lemons and
the peel of two, chopped fine and grated,

three ounces of butter, melted to an oil;

ture and bake for three-quarters of an
hour; orange Juice may be substituted for
lemon if preferred. A meringue made of
the white of one egg and little powdered
sugar is quite an improvement to this
pudding.
Sea Foam-A dainty accessory with
stewed fruit. Take eight eggs for family
cup of milk and little salt, beat
thoroughly. Place on the stove a shallow
pan, with one teaspoonful OF butter. When
hot, pour in the yolks and milk, and set
on the back of the stove to stiffen. Beat
whites very light, stir in little salt, and
pile ii up on the yolks. Place in the oven
few minutes, when taken out cut in dia-
mond shape with sharp knife; lift each
separately with an egg turner.
HaIibut an Gratin.-A pint OF cooked
halibut free from skin and bones, a cupful
and half of cream or milk, one table
spoonful OF flour two of butter, one-fourth
OF a teaspoonful of pepper, one teaspoon
full and a half of salt, half tesspoonful
of onion Juice, and eight spoonfuls OF
grated bread crumbs are the materials nee
essary for this dish. Break the fish into
fakes with q fork, and sprinkle over it
half the pepper and one teaspoonful of the
salt; mix lightly with the fork; put the
milk or cream into small saucepan and
heat to the boiling point; meanwhile, beat
together the -four and butter, one table
spoonful, and stir into the boiling milk.
Stir for one minute and then add the onion
Juice and pepper. Take from the fire and
put about half a spoonful of the sauce into
each of six escalop shells. Now put in 8
thin LAYER of fish and another of sauce,
then a second layer of fish and still another
of sauce. Finally, sprinkle the grated
bread crumbs over each dish. Melt the
second tablespoonful of butter and sprinkle
it over the crumbs. Place the escalop
shells in q large pan, and put into a rather
hot oven for fifteen minutes. Serve I'M
mediately.

Hints for Young HOusskeepsrs.


Cover plants with newspapers before
sweeping.
Wet tobacco applied to bee or a wasp
sting will give instant relief.
In sewing and winding carpet rags double
them with the right side up.
To clean doorplates use a solution OF am.
monia in water, applied with rag.
A solution of pearlash in water thrown
upon fire will extiDguish it Immediately.
Egg-shells burned in the oven and placed
upon the pantry shelves will keep bugs
away.
Clothespins boiled a few minutes and
quickly dried once or twice month be-
come more durable.
To set delicate colors in embroidered
handkerchiefs, soak them ten minutes, pre-
vious to washing, in pail of tepid water
in which a dessertsDoonful OF turpentine
has been well stirred.
II you dip your broom in clean, hot suds
once a week, then shake it till ii is almost
dry, and then hang it up, or stand it with
the handle down, 1t will last twice as long
as it would without this operation.
A pan of sliced raw onions placed in a
room where there is diphtheris, will absorb
the poison aud prevent the disease from
spreading. The onions should be buried
every morning and fresh ones cut up.
Bronze may be renovated and recolored
by mixing one part of muriatic acid and
two parts of the water; free the article
from all grease and dirt, and apply the di-
luted acid with cloth; when dry polish
with sweet oil.
To take rust out of steel rub the steel
with sweet oil; in a day or two rub with
finely powdered unslacked lime until the
rust all disappears, then oil again, roll in
woollen and put in dry place, especially
II is be table cutlery.
To prepare an egg for a sick person, beat
the egg until very light; add seasoning to
taste, and them steam until thoroughly
warmed through. This will not take more
than two minutes. The most delicate
stomach will be able to digest it.
Housekeepers who are bothered by hay,
ing white marble stoops, halls or walks to
having them washed with mop which
has been dipped in boiling hot water and
soda. A good deal Of soda should be put
in the water and allowed to dissolve. 1t is
astonishingly effective.
The little white worms which sometimes
make the earth in plant jar look as IL II
was alive can be driven out by stopping
the hole in the bottom OF the jar and COW
ering the earth with water in which you
have dissolved little lime. Let this stand
for several hours, and it is not likely that
you will be troubled with the worm any
more,
