HOME. FARM AND GARDEN.

The white grub is a whitish grub, with six legs near the forepart of the body. It feeds on the roots of roses and eventually destroys the bushes' Remove the earth around the roots and kill the grub
 Tomato Marmalade Peel ripe tomatoes, cut them in small pieces and boil till we'll done; rub through a sieve and add one cup Of sugar for each cup of tomatoes; boil forty min utes, then pour in small jars.
 Make the hills for lima beans very rich. Fine compost is the best ma terial, but manure is also excellent The point is to use plenty of it as the pods fill out very slowly if there is a deficiency of available plant food in the soil.
 -Garden@s, as a rule, are in favor of changing the seed of potatoes fre- quently. Experience seems to have proved the desirability of this change. and leaves little doubt but that planting the same kind year after year on the same soil tends to weaken the variety.
 A good insect destroyer is said to be liq uid formed by boiling sixty three grains of red American potash and the same quantity each of flowers of sulphur and soap, in one and three quarters pints of water fit requires to be stronger the quantitity of potash and sulphur may be doubled.
 Chicken Balls. cup of finely chopped chicken, two cups of cold boiled potatoes, two cold onions, and moisten with cold gravy so that it can be nodded into balls in the hands. Roll in bolted meal and drop into a skillet of hot fat until Drowned. A wire basket or pail is the best, but they can be dropped in like doughnuts.
 A farmer must compound and use the feed that he has at hand oris most easily produced. A compound may be made of bran. oats and rye, bran and rye or bran and eornmeal, and these compounds can often be made in such way as to cheapen the cost of feed when all has to be bought on the market. On the majority of farms oats are grown only for the horses and colts. The pigs should always be thought of as sharers in this important muscle-forming food.
 In the garden, orchard, truck patch and among the small fruits, one of the most important items necessary to secure the best results is thorough cultivation, not only to keep down the weeds, but also to loosen up and keep the soil in good tilth; and usually in proportion as this is given, the better will be the results both as regards the quality and quantity. Each year that the weeds are kept from maturing seed reduces the work ofkeeping clean the next -Western Plowman.
 The hay-rake may often be made to serve the purpose of a tedder with out injury to the leaves of the grass. The hay should be raked fairly green, left for few hours till wilted or near ly dry and then turned over with the rake, the operator holding to the lever till the windrow has been inverted. In extreme cases this operation may be repeated. Hay should be cured as much as possible in the bunch; there fore 1t would appear to be better econ- omy to buy hay caps than tedders.

HINTS ABOUT MOVING.
How to Contradict the Saying That Two
 Movings Arc Bad as Fire.

How to Contradict the saying That Two
 Movlngs Arc as Bad Fire.
 There are few things most women dread as much as moving, for in most homes it means week of confusion, at the least. Although it may mean general improvement in the matter of abode, yet the demoralization attend ing the removal takes away the charm of betterment until settled. Many women will put up with any amount of inconvenience rather than move. The men folks of the family are not, as Il rule fond of this occupation, the majority Of them agreeing with Frank lin that 1.-two movings are as bad as a fire. -
 When packing for moving it is best to pack the furniture of each room separately. marking it so it may be kept together and placed in the room allotted il in the new house at first and great deal of confusion will be saved If the new abode is near it is best to carry all pictures (not too large) and any fragile articles by hand, hanging the pictures in their proper places before moving in. The carpets, with the exception of the oil- cloth, hall and stair carpets, can be put down ere the rest of the furniture arrives. To be sure, they will have to be fitted to the new rooms, and ought to be lifted and sent day or two. at least before the remainder of the fur niture. The curtains, too, with the exception of those in the kitchen and sitting-room, can be sent and put up day ahead When this is done the rest Of the settling is not very hard, for when the furniture arrives there should be some one at the house to designate the rooms to which each article of furniture is to go, and the proper adjustment of the furnishings of the rooms will come very easy.
 Many women have large pieces of dark calico to cover the feather beds while moving, which are excellent for the purpose, while others use old un- bleached sheets. In tying the bed al- ways put with it the pillows and cov- erings used on it. Although many do not cover mattresses. yet it is the bet ter way, as some movers of furniture are very careless, and it is an annoy ing thing to find on the mattress a smear of wheel-grease or mud. Tie the slats of each bed together. and mark them. Tie the castors of each piece of furniture together, mark and put in box or drawer.
 Pack the crockery and glassware in tubs or barrels but do not allow any thing to come within two or three inches of the top, as it is likely to be broken. When going short distance. such as from one part of city to another soft newspaper is good for packing, rolling each article in it sep arately. then packing all together. When going a long distance, use damp straw for packing, and there will be less danger of breakage. When nov ing mirrors, be sure and have their faces covered or turned from the sun, for if the latter is allowed to shine on them for any length of time they will be damaged beyond repair.
