HAsrY PUDDING OR Musu.

As this is favorite American dish, the
recipe is for large quantity. The flour
in this case is added for advantagein in frying
the pudding when it is cold; the pudding
when hot is eaten with milk, sirup, but.
ter or gravy. Put two quarts of water into
clean saucepan, with level teaspoonful
of salt; set it over the fire, and when it
boils stir in a pound of Indian meal and
a quarter of a pound of flour mixed to a
smooth paste with pint of cold water;
add the flour and meal gradually, stirring
constantly with pudding-stick to pre-
vent the formation of Jumps. When the
pudding is quite smooth let it boil
steadily for an hour, stirring it often
enough to prevent burning, constant
boiling improves the flavor of the pud-
ding. When there are no measures con-
venient, enough meal is stirred into the
boiling water to hold the pudding-stick
upright. That portion of the pudding
intended for frying should be poured into
q tin or carthen dish wet with cold watt
and allowed to cool.-Juliet Corson.

How CetywaYo Became King.

Umbande was desirous to see his eld-
est son Umbulazi placed at the head of
the Zulu nation; but Cetywayo, a
younger and more ambitious prince, was
determined to dispute the succession,
and the father, seeing no sign of having
his own way, said to his sons, "You
may fight it out" The nation was i'm
mediately thrown into intense excite
ment. Swords were sharpened, OK hides
converted into shields and day fixed on
which the two parties of Zulus under
their respective chiefs were to settle the
matter of sovereignty. A more bloody
battle was perhaps never fought in Zulu
AID. No mercy was shown to either
sex. The infant was speared on its
mothers breast, old and young alike
were butchered. Umbulazi was proba-
bly, assegaid, as he was never seen af-
terward; and it was reported that nearly
or quite 10000 Zulus were either killed
in battle or drowned in the river Tugela
which forms the northern boundary OF
this colony. In time Cetywayo became
king, g,-New York Observer.

A Curious New York Law.

What may strike tho average citizen
as a curious law went into effect recent.
ly. 1t is chapter forty-one of the Session
laws of 1890, entitled 'san act for the
prevention of blindness. 1t provides
as follows:
SECTION 1. Should any midwife OF
nurse having charge of an infant in this
State notice that one or both eyes are
much infamed or Redeemed at any time
within two weeks after its birth, it shall
be the duty of such midwife or nurse so
having charge of such infant to report
the fact in writing within six hours to
the Health Officer or some legally quail
fed practitioner of medicine of the city,
town or district in which the parents re-
side.
Sec. 2. Any failure to comply with the
provisions of this act shall be punished
by fine not to exceed 800, or impris-
onment not to exceed six months, OF
both.
Sec. 3. That this act shall take effect
on the 1st day of September, 1890.
An Erpress man asked Health Officer
Balch to explain the law, but he only
said that it was to prevent blindness. If
the reading was not clear that was the
fault of the lawmakers. He said no
cases had been brought to his attention
yet. When he learns of one probably
DIR. Ralch will endeavor to find out what
his duties are in the premises. Redness
of the eyes, perhaps, may mean granula-
ton Of the lids, which needs attention,
but whatever it may mean it is apparent.
ly n duty hereafter to make grand hus-
tie to notify the Health Officer or some
physician the moment that very young
infants eyes may become red. What
formation is brought may be he will have
to guess, as the law is silent on that
point.-ARany (N. ~ Erpress.

aoosEBERRY FOOL.

A very delicious dish with queer
name-"gooseberry foor'-comes to us
from our great-great-grandmothers, and
is particularly acceptable in warm
weather. Boil green gooseberries until
tender, mash the fruit to make juice,
adding but little water; mash through a
hair sieve. To quart of the strained
berries allow coffee cupful of sugar,
and boil up once. 1t is delicious when
cold, and should be eaten with cream.
If the latter is fresh it will not curdle.
1t is also very nice with boiled custard.
Rhubarb may be prepared in the same
manner.-New York World.

TIE CARE OF LANES.

At lambing time the pen should be
made extra warm and comfortable, as
lambs dropped during severe cold wealth
er Especially if Merinos or fine wools)
soon become chilled unless the room is
warm, or prompt attention is paid to
them by the attendant. Should the eve
fail to own her lamb, 1t is best to tie her
up in a separate stall; or, better still,
partition off one corner of the pen so that
she may not be shut away from the flock.
If the lamb becomes chilled it may be fed a
few tablespoonfuls of warm milk, mixed
with one-tenth part of brandy of whisky
or, in the absence of these, Il few drops
of Jamaica ginger or pain-kiler may be
administered with the milk. This
treatment, with wrapping in woolen
blanket and placing near the stove,
should soon restore the lamb to vigor.
If it is placed in the pen with others, it
is good plan to place upon the nose of
the mother few drops of the same ma
terial that was mixed with the lambs
drink. This hint will often cause the
eve to own her lamb, or even strange
lamb, when otherwise trouble would be
experienced.
The first six hours of lambs life Is
the most critical time; hence many farm
ers will go to the barn at midnight to
look after their flock, and it often pays
to do so, asa well-kept lamb is worth in
October not less than So so, and often 81
is obtained for them. When a week old
lambs will begin to eat the leaves and
clover heads, and also the fine leaves of
timothy, cornstalks, etc. But clover is
their favorite. and should be given them
if possible. 1t not only adds growth,
but makes them strong and hearty.
No doubt some of the ewes will be-
come thin in flesh. These, with their
lambs, should have separate enclosure,
and be fed an extra ration of grain, pac-
ing the feed trough low enough so that
that the lambs may also eat portion of
it. Remember that to be successful in
lamb raising one needs healthy sheep,
good food, warm quarters and prompt
attention.-Ne,o YORK. Ecaminey.

THE FARM AND GARDEN.
VALUE OF SALT AS A rERrLIzER.


ALI plants contain moro or less salt,
and the more of it as the soil is suffi-
GENTLY provided with it. Salt is neces-
sary for the digestion of food. hence salt
is an indispensable element of plant
food. Grass and pasture are especially
benefited by it. Five hundred pounds
of cheap salt, sold for the purpose at
about Sc per ton, may be applied now
as soon as the grass starts growth.
Glover is equally benefited by it. Man
gels and other root crops should receive
from four hundred to six hundred
pounds per acre; cabbages, and especially
asparagus, need salt. Oats and wheat
are benefited by it, the effect of it being
to stiffen the straw and enlarge the
grain, giving it clear, bright skin. The
salt has also benecfiial effect on the
soil by its chemical action.

CARE OF MILK.

A cheese manufacturer in this State,
says George i. Newell in the american
AgricuJturist, has had the following
pointed advice printed at the head of the
dividend sheets he issues to his patrons :
Stake good care of your nights milk, it
will pay you" Where milk is delivered
at the factory only once in twenty-four
hours, more than ordinary attention at
the daiFyman's hands is necessary to pre-
serve its quality. Especially is this true
In hot weather, and on nights when the
air is disturbed by electrical storms. 1t
is of vital interest to the manufacturer to
always receive good milk, for the repu-
tation of his stock must be maintained,
and profitable money returns yielded to
his patrons. OF deeper significance also
is the public health, which may be jeo-
pardized as greatly through carelessness
and Ignorance in the dairy as by loose
sanitary conditions in the face of pesti-
lence. The thought of eating ''hurt
meat" fills every one with adherence,
yet the consumption of tainted milk is as
dangerous to human health. Milk may
develop a fatal poison, and yet reveal
little of it to the sense of smell. There
are two general species of faint that affect
milk. When warm from the udder and
lying in deep vessel it generates one
character of decomposition, and rank
odors emanating from decaying animal
or vegetable matter cause the other. To
avoid both, milk must be set in draught
of pure air, and be aerated thoroughly
by stirring, or by driving air through
the mass. The fluid should not be vio-
lently handled while it is cooling and
airing, or partial separation of the but
ter globules ensues. In whatever char
acter of vessel milk is stored over night,
the material of course being tin, free
circulation of air should be secured un-
der the bottom as well as around the
sides. Cans of large diameter should be
employed, and only moderate quantity
of milk be stored in can. For dairy.
man who regularly patronizes q cheese
factory and makes day delivery of
milk once day, properly constructed
cooling stand should be part of his
equipment. 1t should stand on an ele-
waited location convenient to the milk
ing barn, and one open to free circula-
tion of air from all quarters. Posts are
set on ten feet high with shingled roof,
and floor as high above the ground as
a wagon box. This will make struc-
ture that the wind can not blow down,
and it will be rain-proof unless from a
driving storm. A low roof, or boarded
up sides should be avoided as the object
is to offer no obstruction to the freest
aerial circulation. The ca1s of milk
should rest ON cleats raised at least six
inches above the floor, and they never
should in any case be covered over night
unless by screen. A fight of strong
steps should lead up to the platform for
the use of mixers, and the opposite side
face driveway for facility in loading
on wagon. Milk thoroughly freed
from the animal heat before it is massed
in bulk is quite certain of keeping
sweetly till morning.
1t is u good practice to have plenty of
pals, aud let the milk stand in til EN- an
haur or more before storing it in greater
Sullivan republican. [volume] (Laporte, Pa.) 1883-1896, 1890-10-31
bulk. Not over one hundred pounds

bulk. Not over one hundred pounds
should be kept in one can, and the
the greater the diameter of the can the
better. Don't put sour whey in milk
cans, but rather take barrel to the fac
tory for that purpose. After thorough
cleansing of the receptacles, they should
be treated to rigid scalding with boil
ing water. This may seem an unneces-
sary precaution; it is often neglected to
the detriment of the milk.
Taint in milk can not always be de-
tected by the sense of smell, and it pres
ents its most dangerous character when,
odorless in the lacteal fluid, it arises as
gaseous effluvia from the cooking cheese.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

For polishing furniture beeswax and
turpentine are very good, but plenty of
elbow grease is essential.
White paint that has become discol-
ored may be nicely cleaned by using a
little whiting in the water for washing.
Save all your old white muslin. It
makes good busters and will also be use
full for cleaning windows, as it is free
from lint.
A good way to remove ink stains from
carpets is to sprinkle salt over the soiled
spots and pour on boiling water; do it
several times, if necessary.
For cleaning glasses belonging to ma
hogany furniture, use either powdered
whiting or scraped rottenstone mixed
with sweet oil, and rub on with chamois
skin.
Eggs shells crushed into small bits and
shaken well in decanters, three parts
filled with cold water, will not only clean
them thoroughly, but make the glass
look like new.
The walls of each room should be
brushed, duster should be tied over a
broom and then passed up and down.
The duster must, of course, be shaken
from time to time.
For cleaning windows aud mirrors one
of the best things is plain soft water and
chamois leather, having a dry chamois
leather as we'll to polish with afterward.
This process will not answer near the sea,
because of the salt in the atmosphere.
The scrubbing of floors should be done
with bath brick dust or sand and ordi.
nary household soap. The object of the
brick dust or sand is to whiten boards.
After washing leave all the doors and
windows open for it to dry very quickly,
which also helps to whiten the boards.
When tablecloths are worn beyond
mending cut square pieces from the best
parts of them and hem them neatly.
They make nice napkins for the little
children to use at the table, and also do
nicely for them to carry their lunches to
school in, for if they are stained or lost
it will not matter much, as your sets will
not be broken.

Pop the pulps out of the skins into one
vessel and put tho skins into another.
Then simmer the pulp little and run it
through colander to separate the seeds.
Next put the skins and pulp together,
and they are ready tor Juggling or for
pies. Pies prepared in this way are
nearly as good as plum pie, and that is
very good.
