Keeping Cider Sweet.

Very many are interested at this season
in knowing how to keep cider fresh and
sweet. Popular gardening says that the
best and only method of preventing fer
in early-made cider is by heat
ing to 20 degrees Fair, and placing in
an alright package and sealing up while
hot, following the usual method of can
ming fruit Cider put up by this process
| have kept through the second summer,
as sweet As when it ran from the press.
The objection to this method is that it
changes to some extent the flavor Of the
cider, and when opened for use it fer
ments just as does canned fruit. A
method of preserving late made cider is
to add some antiseptic, advertised in the
cider journals, which has as its active in
gredient either sulphur or salicylic acid,
the latter being the most used. One
ounce OF the acid to thirty-two gallons of
cider being the rule, the quantity being so
small a. not to be detected, and not in
juring il for vinegar making.
The Farmer advises all its readers to
let salicylic acid alone and not let it en-
ter any food or drink preparation. No
wise man says that 1t is harmless. Poi
son is always harmful though its immcd-
late effects may not be noted, and the
continued use of it is liable to do very
great injury to ones health. Let it
alone. Indiana Farmer.

Whore Log Cabins Flourish.

\ party of American gentlemen, who
have been camping out on an island IN
the great Lake NipisSing, Canada, last
summer, were returning in sal-boat and
were yet seven miles from port when the
sun wCnt down, and with IL the sailing
breeze.
A discouragng situation, truly.
"Nelcr mind, can row you there in
side of. two hours" said the guide who
had charge of the party, as their murmurs
arose.
WHY, man, it is seven miles, there are
four of us in this heavy boat-its big
jo0 you undertake, said one.
"No matter, have done the likes be-
fore and can do it again" cheerfully re-
piled tie broadshouldered lrishman, as
he slowed away the sail and bent to the
oars. He was splendid oarsman and
the boat was soon under. headway again.

fessOr

IAN old Scoth lady, who had come
over from the States gave me prepare
ton of balsams and herbs, which she said
the early settlers in America used, and it
soon stopped my cough and put me on my
feet again"
One has to travel along the frontier to
learn how easy 1t is to get along without
doctors, and how effective are the natur-
al remedies which the old grandmothers
know how to prepare. They often cure
where the best physicians fail.
Every mother of family knows how
coughs and colds are quickly aud radical

balsams and herbs which grandmother

The Corn Crop.

The following estimate of the total
corn crop of the United States, for 1883,
Is given in the Farmers Review. As the
increase in the corn crop of 1883 over
that of 1887 will be produced almost en-.
tirely in the seven great corn states, Ohio
Indiana Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, kansa,
and Nebraska, the estimates are made OF
those States, with the appended result
Total yield, 49,, 1874 1913 bushels as com
pared with $50, 425 900 yield reported by
the Department of Agriculture for 1887
or gain of G54, 100 ,sjS bushels. Assum
ing that the crops in other States will be
equal to that reported for last year by the
namely, G7j, 73G, 900 bushels,
the total corn crop of 1883 is estimated n
2, | 10 1921. H5s bushels.
