COOLING THE CELLAR.
In Ordinary Weather Windows Should Be
Opened at Night Only.

In Ordinary Weather Windows Should Be
Opened at Night Only.
A great mistake is sometimes made
in ventilating cellars and milk houses.
The object of ventilation is to keep
the cellars cool and dry: but this OBJ
ject often fails of being accomplished
by common mistake, and in
stead the cellar is made both
warm and damp. A cool place should
never be ventilated, unless the
air admitted is cooler than the air
within, or at least as cool as that. or
very little warmer. The warmer the
air, the more moisture it holds in sus-
pension. Necessarily, the cooler the
air, the more this moisture is con-
densed and precipitated. When cool
cellar is aired on warm day. the en-
tering air being in motion appears
cool, but as it fills the cellar, the cool
er air with which it becomes mixed
chills it, the moisture is condensed,
and dew is deposited on the cold walls
and may often be seen running down
them in streams. Then the cellar is
damp and soon becomes moldy. To
avoid this the windows should only
be opened a. night, and 1ate-the last
thing before retiring. There is no
need to fear that the night air is un-
healthful- is as pure as the air of mic
day, and is really drier. The cool air
renters the apartment during the night,
and circulates through it. The win
dows should be closed before sunrise
in the morning, and kept closed and
shaded through the day. If the air
of the cellar is damp it may be thor
oughly dried by placing in it peck OF
fresh lime in an open box, and, the
National Builder adds, peck of lime
will absorb about seven pounds, or
more than three quarts, of water,
| and in this way cellar or milk house
| may soon be dried, even in the hottest

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 bealzs, 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 a quart of hot water and 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 oi
water. This is sprayed on the insects,
and is deadly to all with which it may
come in contact

MAKING GOOD BUTTER.
The Secret of Success. 1t Is Claimed, Lie
In Proper Working.

The Secret of Success, 1t Is Claimed, Lies
In Proper Working.
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 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 a tin or
wooden dipper. Don't for your life
touch it with your hands. Place it as
tenderly as a baby on the worker and
press it gently but firmly into a fat
cake. Then with the wooden paddle,
fold it together and again gently but
firmly press it 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 salve of it before the water
leaves it. The trick is to preserve the
graiu SO that it will break piece of
cast steel. The churn should be
turned at the proper number of levo-
1utions per minute, which will depend
on the shape and size of the churn and
the amount of cream in it.
Never puta 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 breaks" 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 table.-Home

snlitt,pg 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 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.

rapidly as the four dirty, rusty red feet
patter on the pave.
There is no intricate step or shuttle
that these little darkies cannot execute
in perfect union, the only accompani-
ment being a series of cultural grunts
that are supposed to do duty as a meas
ure for the time of each movement. Be-
tween legitimate dancing steps they
bob down until their launches almost
touch the ground, and this particular
act always bring forth applause.

makes no difference whether they are
black or white. Unfortunately, so
many of the poor of this city are of one
race: and it is undoubtedly, as Aunt
Lima says, the fault of the race which
enslaved them for so long. We must
neither censure nor blame them too
severely for their faults and weakness

Father" taught us, in those two words.
both the Fatherhood of God, and the
brotherhood of man. We must endeav-

saying that *'the rich and the poor

the Maker of us all.''

hours time will make as good a hand
roller as can be bought for four or five
dollars at the hardware store. The
roller may be put in a framework
made of old boards and an old lawn
roller handle used instead of a sapling.
It is well to paint the stovepipe to
keep it from rusting.
Such a roller is very useful when
putting in radishes, turnips or any
small or light seed. Fig. A shows how

REFRACTORY ANIMALS.
Farmers Should Get Rid OF Them as
Quickly as Possible.

Farmers Should Get Rid OF Them as
Quickly Possible.
Any farmer is really unfortunate
who possesses a ball1y horse, kicking
COW, or breachy animal of any kind,
and the best way to get rid of the evil
is to dispose of the beast, even if it is
done at something of a sacrifice. Re-
fractory cattle should be prepared for
the shambles: refractory horses put
upon tread powers if balky, and to
city use if unruly. There is neither
peace nor profit in keeping such, and
the real aim of life should be TO make
the situation as comfortable as posi-
BILE. Kicking cows are sometimes kept
on the plea that they are good milk
ers, but it is not a fit one, for fatted
COW will bring sufficient money in the
market to purchase a good, kind
mixer any time, and the perplexity
saved is worth the price again an
nually. A writer speaking on the sub
ject says: 1 do not speak of this as a
looker-on, but from my own expe-
rience as a farmer and dairyman,
and I know that the husbandman
never feels happier concerning his
farm regulations than when he de-
terminedly resolves that he will not
have a bally, kicking or unruly ami
NAL upon the premises.-Farmers'
