How to clean Bottled.

It is surprising how many people
persist in cleaning bottles with shot
after the frequent cautions that have
been given. Nothing cleans bottle
SO easily as handful of shot, which
can be shaken into every corner until
the glass fairly shines with cleanliness.
But the danger of lead poisoning is
very great, even when the bottle is
washed out with clean water, and
it is doubly dangerous when, as is
usually the case, there is no ,insing at
all. A little clean sand is a conve-
nient and thorough bottle cleanser
especially as it is absolutely necessary
to complete the process by washing
out the particles of sand which adj
here. When time is not an object
bottle can be we'll cleansed by aid of
potato parings, but as they must be
corked in and left 10 ferment, the plan
is too tedious for general use. But
uuder do circumstances should shot be
used, especially in bottles about to be
filled with drugs or medicines.

An fruit FOR market has to be pick
ed little before it is ripe--even tht
apple, which ripens all through the
fall and winter.
Eternal vigilance is the price Of
every thing you have that is worth
stealing.
In some parts of the West wood ia
scarce, and the people have learned to
use hay closely compressed as fuel for
cooking. Corn stalks, and even
corn itself, have at times been used
for fuel. Corn in the ear is reckoned
worth its weight in coal for burning.
The oil it contains makes very hot
fire, and as most of its substance is
starch, another form of carbon, it is
not strange that it should well serve
this use.
Farm cellars need good overhaul
ing generally at this time of the year.
Clean them up thoroughly and pro-
vide with good, thorough ventilation.
Sheep, when well sheltered dprina
the fall and winter, viii not oaig
shear more wool, hut il will Of a hos
ter quality than of those exposed TO
the weather.
Push the pigs that are still on hand
for all they are worth from now till
the solid cold weather of winter sets
in. Liberal feeding pays best for the
food given. With the corn meal give
a light feed of raw apples or pump
kiLs each day.
Keep the horses hungry is the
advice of good horseman, but by
regular feeding of just what the horse
will eat up clean they never need
have the collie which is generally
from over-eating or from eating sour
feed left in the box. If the veteriua-
rian is not always at hand it is well
10 keep some collie cure for immediate
use to promptly relieve the pain in
,ase of an attack of collie.
. People who use their noses for de
the value of manures or
fertilizers are sure 10 lose money,
because most of them believe that a
horrible smell indicates strength.
A little common sense in feeding
logs is the preventive OF cholera.

Applaa for winter.

Use only clean barrels and sort the
fruit well, packing each grade sepa-
rately and marking it accordingly.
Let no good fruit go to waste. Dry
what cannot be marketed otherwise.
For winter storage pick winter fruit,
when fully mature, handle it as care
fully as you would eggs, leave 1t out
doors as long as safe from freezing,
then put II in cool cellar. For home
use in spring try packing some fine
apples in barrels or boxes of dry oats
or corkdust. Piue sawdust, If used as
packing material, imparts bad
flavor to the fruit.--American Gar
dening.

House Cleaning Hints.

Cold tea is excellent for cleaning
grained wood.
Kerosene applied with a rag when
you are about to put your stove,
away for the summer will prevent
them from rusting.
Dampen a cloth and dip in soda and
rub tinware briskly, after which wipe
dry.
A great convenience when cleaning
house is stick with notch in the
end that will lift the picture cords of
from the hooks without SO much STEP
ping up and down.
Papered walls are cleaned by being
wiped down with flannel cloth tied
over broom or brush. Then cut of
a thick piece of stale bread and rub
down with this. Begin at the top
and 60 straight down.
Hot alum water is the best insect
destroyer known. Put the alum into
hot water and let it boil till it is all
dissolved; then apply the solution hot
to all cracks, closets, bedsteads and
other places where any insects are
found. ANS, bedbugs, cockroaches
and creeping things are killed by it.,
and there is no danger of poisoning
the family or ipjuring the property.
To clean oilcloth it must be wiped
perfectly dry as it is washed. Use
little soap and this in tepid water !;
change often. A good brush aud a
piece of dry flannel will make oilcloth
look like new, especially if linseed oil
or skim milk is we'll rubbed in after
washing. If, in addition to these
precautions, the cloth ia vanished
annually it is almost iBdestructible.
A good way to keep a carving
knife perfectly sharp, and make your
husband think you give him the ten
derest of joints, is TO use a "ritle,"
such as the farmers sharpen their
scythes upon. A few turns on this
will give an edge that will cut through
anything. ....

The most valuable farm product is
happy family.
One never grows fat by having to
eat his own words.
The wind never blows to suit the
man who rises late.
"Silence is golden" when talk keeps
you from work.
Kicking horse IS poor way to
make friend of him.
The easiest way TO appear wise IL TO
keep your mouth shut.
The road to ruin often looks as if it
led TO the land Of plenty.
The fish that never eats flies is no.
apt to be caught On a hook.
Trying to keep cows fat that have
no other pro &c ion from the winters
cold than the leeward side of straw
pile is like trying to warm up all out
of door with No. 7 heating stove.
Some men never practice economy
except when they are buying for their
wives.
Cut hole in the pocket you carry
your tobacco in, and after awhile you
will be glad you took my advice.

THE ADVOCATE.
Winter Protection of strawberry
Vines.

Winter Protection of Strawberry
Vines.
At this season occurs the question
regarding the utility of covering
strawberry vines for protection IL
winter. If knew the snow would
come on and keep them covered til
into April, there would not be the
slightest necessity of afiording Other
protection. Even here, in this latitude
we are as likely to have rain and ice
storms in January and February as
otherwise, and then it is good by to
big patches of strawberry plants. Re-
peated thawing and freezing OF the
ground is what works the mischief
with the plants, SO the covering OF
leaves, straw or evergreen boughs, or
what not, protects the ground from
the rage of the sun and atmospheric
changes adequate to prevent the de-
struction of the plants.
1t is true that on clayey soil, or
most any stiff soil, If adequate protec-
ton is not afforded the plants they
will be lifted out by the frost, but
alternate freezing and thawing, il the
plants are not raised by the roots, is
fully as destructive.
On account of the uncertainty of the
weather and snow to affsrd cOntin-
nous covering through the winter, l
find it the proper thing to do to afford
the strawberry plot generous cover
ing of leaves from deciduous trees.
These, the maple shade trees in my
case, afford in abundance, which are
distributed over the plants until none
are in sight. Some coarse material,
if at hand, is placed upon the leaves to
prevent the wind from blowing them
off if the snow does not come on inn
mediately.
In the spring the leaves will be
found closely pressed upon the plants,
but the young growth will push the
leaves upward, or they may be lightly
loosened with the rake, or left to pro-
tect the fruit from the soil. Swale
hay and leaves together make happy
combination to cover the strawberry
bed. But the meanest substance is
strawy manure. The straw is well
enough, but generally the manure is
the vehicle 10 scatter innumerable
weed and grass seeds over the bed,
which entails much labor 10 eradicate.

Western Australia with its eror-
nous territory does not supply enough
cattle and sheep for local consumption.
This land is remarkable for IFS immense
area of arid sand upon which the only
green thing that iourishes is the
inevitable gumtree. OF grass there
is almost none, and even the kanga-
roos are half starved The non-alri-
val of a cargo of live stock by steamer
from South Australia is sometimes a
serious matter in the more western
colony.

The amount of milk and butter that
may be obtained from COW ia shown
by the performance of the Holsteins,
which yield not only large quantities
of milk but stand high as butter pro-
ducers. A yield of 26,02l pounds of
milk (atout 13,0C0 quarts) in one
year has been the result. The same
COW also produced twenty eight
pounds OF butter il one week. Some
of them have produced over thirty
pounds of butter in one week, and at
