Good for Jelly.

Many good housekeepers do not know
that the most delicious jelly can be
made of fruit skins and cores, such as
are usually thrown away. There is
more gelatinous matter around the core
and skin of all fruit than in any other
part. The skin of peaches wit h
few pits added, boiled in as
little water as possible, strained
and made up with sugar, pint for
pound, yields most delicious red jelly.
A delightful jelly may even be made of
apple skins and cores, though it is i'm
proved in flavor and jellies more easily
if small quantity of the cores and
skins of ounces are added to 1t. A very
excellent jelly is made of grape skins in
about equal quantities. Pear skins con-
tain less galatlnous matter than any
other fruits. but if used in connection
with ounce skiing will make fair Jelly.

Sheen in Hot Weather.

Hot weather is one of the most criti-
cal times of the year for all cattle, says
F. P. Smith in American CultiYator, and
the mortality is almost as great among
the sheep as during midwinter, I'M
less the owner oversees the flock and
attends to their needs carefully. Hot
weather produces the parasites which
infest the sheep, and Indirectly cause
the growth of ticks. lung worms,
liver worms and stomach worms.
These enemies are especially I'M u
riouS to the lambs. and great harm may
be done by a little inattention. The
combination farmer and shepherd is
very apt to forget the flock during sum-
mer, owing to the press of other farm
work, and the growing lambs naturally
contract bad habits and stop growing.
If this growth should cease, decay be-
gins, and the parasites are ready for
their work. In feeding the fOcks it
should be seen that the lambs get their
share, and are not crowded away
separate them from the flock
during feeding hours. They should be
given feed Of oats to keep them grow
ing and in excellent condition; but, if
oats cannot be obtained easily. corn and
bran will answer all purposes. The
sheep do not thrive so We'll when the
hot seasons are wet, and if the pastures
are on the lowlands this feed of oats
will be needed all the more. II the
pastures are wet much of the time the
Sheep will become lame from fouls in
the cleft of the foot. This should be
remedied as soon as discovered. If one
of the flock limps a little it should be
caught, and the foot cleaned out, and
the surplus hoof trimmed off. A little
powdered blue vitriol sprinkled into the
cleft of the hoOf will be good in prevent
ing hoof rot. The fouls are frequently
the direct cause of foot rot, and if these
are attended to in wet weather a great
deal of injury will be avoided. The pas
lures should be changed often, and the
ewes and lambs should be given the best
and dryest pastures on the farm. 1t is in
the low, wet pastures where the harm
comes to the sheep. Stagnant ponds
should not be in reach of the flock.
Pure running spring water should be
given to them every day, and the
troughs should be cleaned out often.
Salt should be given to them mixed
with little sulphur to help keep down
the parasites. Attention to these little
details may seem unimportant at first,
but they constitute the chief charm of a
good shepherd, and they are always
proftably paid for in the long run.

Thew Took the Hint.

A good story is told of the plan adopted by
a we'll known young man of this city to in
innate to party of friends whom he was
entertaining at his house one evening that it
was time for them to 60 home. The party
had gathered early and the evening had been
an exceedingly pleasant one Midnight
came and the guests were still having SO
good a time that they paid no attention to
the approach of dawn. Their host patiently
waited some time longer for his guests to tell
him that they had enjoyed his hospitality
and depart for their several homes. But the
guests showed no disposition to do so and
finally their entertainer adopted tactics
which proved successful. He abruptly left
the room. After few minutes had passe d
as the young man did not return, the party
went to look for him. The found him on
the front steps, looking anxiousIy about. He
was peerilg over the fence and poking about
in corners. apparently trying to discover
something which had been mislaid. "What
are you looking for?" said one Of the party.
"Oh, was just looking for the morning
paper" replied the host. The party said
goodbye in very few minutes.
