Remedy for Plant Lice.

These troublesome insects cannot be
poisoned, because they live by suction
and take the sap from the leaves by
means of their sharp beaks, which
they insert deeply in them. They are
only vulnerable by means of some oily
liquid applied to their bodies. The
best of these is the emulsion made of
soap dissolved in water and mixed
with kerosene oil. A pound of soap
to quart of hot water and a quart of
the oil are the proportions. This is
thoroughly shaken in jar, and when
emulisified it is set away to cool, and
one part of it used with nine parts of
water. This is sprayed on the insects,
and is deadly to all with which it may
come in contact.

Splitting Cabbage stems.

A description Is given OF a method
for arresting the growth of cabbage
heads nearly mature. and thereby pre-
venting their cracking. This is per-
formed by cutting the cabbage stem
half or two-thirds across with a sharp
pruning knife and then extending the
cut either up or down for short dis
tance. If the cabbage does not bend
over by its own weight and thus
widen the split, splinter of wood
should be inserted to keep the cut sur.
faces apart. BY this means the further
growth of the heads is arrested, and
yet sufficient sap reaches them to keep
them fresh until wanted for use.

After crossing the river they had the

But, as he says in recounting the

and the frail appearance and elastic
motions of the sulky kept him in con.

Before he had gone far he gladly
surrendered the machine to Whedbee,

Working the butter is where the fine
art of butter-making comes in. Moth.
ing but practical and deep study will
master this part of the work Given
single lot of butter out of the churn
and divide it between two people, one
an old-fashioned butter maker, and the
other a modern expert, and If the but
ter came out of the churn ali right one
will make twenty-five and the other
fifty cent butter of it, such being the
Importance of proper working.
To work butter correctly we must
begin in the churn. Stop it when the
butter breaks. say the size of bird shot.
Draw off the buttermilk, skim off the
granules of butter that have run into
the churn. Now carefully lift the but
ter all out of the churn with tin or
wooden dipper. Don't for your life
touch it with your hands. Place it as
tenderly as baby on the worker and
press it gently but firmly into fiat
cake. Then with the wooden paddle,
fold it together and again gently but
firmly press 1t fat. Do this over and
over again until all the water is out
of it, but stop as soon as you can.
The danger to butter is in overwork-
ing it.
The skilled hand will get all the
butter out of it with two or three
workings, while the clumsy hand will
make a salve of it before the water
leaves it. The trick is to preserve the
grain so that it will break piece of
cast steel. The churn should be
turned at the proper number of 1evo-
lutions per minute, which will depend
on the shape and size of the churn and
the amount of cream in it.
Never put a churn more than third
full, SO as to give the cream full
chance to fall or allow the dasher a
chance to agitate it. You can soon
learn to tell by the sound when the
cream "breabs," that is, forms in lit
tie pellets like shot. Then stop, draw
off the buttermilk and add bucket of
clean fresh water at the temperature
of sixty degrees. BE particular about
this if you want fine butter. Turn it
slowly in this water twice; then draw
off the water and add another bucket
full and repeat the process. DO this
until the water runs from the churn
perfectly clear; then the butter is
ready for the working able.-Home
