Truth for Ruralists., Here is a bit OF
gospel truth which is worthy the con-
sderation OF farmers who are tempted to
extravaganza, either by pride or the dis
play of their neighhors. A farmer can
live happier in his old house, out CT debt
than he can in a new, fine one with a
mortgage on it. A family can worship
more devoutly going to church in farm
wagon, when they are not afraid OF any
creditor meeting them than to 20 in Il

| Complete protection of choice plants
exposed to the attacks OF cutworms may
| be secured according to Mr.. A. W.
Cheever, OF the New England Farmer, by
surrounding the stems with strips OF
folded newspaper. Last year, he says,
while away from home, dozen tomato
plants set IN the usual way in his garden
were nearly all DESTROYED in two or three
days. This year, of more than two
dozen, set with a fence of folded news
papers around each, not one has been
touched. although cut-worms are album
dant in the garden.
Veal Olives.-Cut two pounds of veal
into strips three inches long and two
inches wide. Make dressing of one
cup of stale bread crumbs, one table
spoonful OF melted butter seasoned with
salt, pepper and sweet herbs Mix and
spread on the str ps OF veal roll them up
and tie tightly; roll in flour and brown
IN boiling lat. Then put in a saucepan,
pour over pint of soup stock, thiclen
with little flour and let simmer two
hours. Take up, remove the string, put
the olives IN a dish, strain the sauce,
flavor with mushroom catsup, and pour
over.
Farmers who object to paying large
sums for choice animals should estimate
the increased value due to improvement.

Such calculation will show that. if the
flock or herd is large, the gain of the
stock will be greater than the cost of A
male or anv OF the thoroughbred breeds.
1t is consequently economical to improve,
and the farmer who does not do so is
really extlavagant, as he deprives him
sell OF the advantages OF better stock.

any increase IN the expenses OF food and
