Strain q cupful of rich broth, and add
to it twice as much boiling water, put
it on the range and cook slowly until
it has absorbed all the water, aud mix
two raw eggs in large cup ,of hot
milk, two tablespoonfuls of grated
cheese, and a tablespoonful of butter,
and pour to the rice; stir well to-
gether, add a cupful OF minced meat
and ham, mix it all well, add salt suf-
ficient to season it, and thon turn in
to a buttered mould, cover and set tho
dish into a drippiug-pan of boiling
water, and bake half an hour. When
done, dip the mould in cold water,
and turn upside down on q fiat dish,
and it will slip out of the mould easily.

in far greater quantities than nitrogen.
Hence the wisdom and utility of em-
ploying unleached wood ashes and
finely ground bone for their fertiliza-
tion. Mix them in proportion of one
ton of ashes to five hundred weight Of
bone, scatter a liberal quantity broad
cast over the entire area of ground
covered by the tree roots, and expect
good crops of fruit. Never allow any
fruit tree to bear too heavily. When
overloaded, thin out some of the
surplus fruit. The remainder will
grow enough larger TO more than
make up the difference, while speci-
mems OF fruit will be far finer. Cole

NORMAN sour.

This is one Of the best white soups
that can be made, having also the
merit Of being economical. Put q
knuckle OF veal into four quarts OF
cold water with a quart of small but
ton onions, and boil gently for two
hours. Then cut up into it half a loaf
of bread and cook for an hour and a
half longer. Then take out the meat,
scrape it all from the bone and cut it
fine, and press the broth, bread and
onions through sieve. Then rub to-
gether a tablespoonful of butter or
oleomargarine, with two tablespoon
tuls of flour until quite smooth, and
stir this into quart of milk placed on
the stove and brought to the boiling
point, but not allowed to boil. When
the -four has been cooked in this, add
it to the soup, put back the pieces of
meat, add salt and pepper to taste and
serve. Force-meat balls are very nice
with this soup. New York World.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Use milk puddings and stewed fruit
for bilious dyspepsia.
After washing never wiring worsted
dress goods. Shake them.
In cleaning japanned goods never
use hot water. Wet a cloth slightly
in warm water and rub the article to
be cleaned. Should any smear appear,
sprinkle with flour and wipe dry.
In making black lace dresses, when
transparent sleeves are desired, il the
sleeves are fist lined with very fine
white net, the arms will look much

In roa ting, the time allowed in
cook books, usually a quarter of an
hour to a pound, must be reckoned
from the moment the meat begins to
cook, and not from the time it is put
into the oven, and even with this pre-
caution little extra time should be
allowed unless the meat is required

WINES WITHOUT GRAPES.

A few years ago I was at Bordeaux and
saw whole cargo Of "chicken" rice, con-
sisting of 2s, 900 sacksful, bought by liquor
making firm and taken into their distillery
to be matted, fermented and distilled into
alcohol for use in making wines and other
intoxicants. In the same distlllery / saw
tons of Indian wheat, and two watts each
containing $500 tons of treacle, which was
also to be fermented and distilled for SINH
lar purposes.
In point of fact, there Is made in factories
which have seen at Hamburg, Germany,
and even in France, thousands OF gallons OF
so-called wine without drop OF grape-luice
in them. Cider, gooseberries. alcohol and
other elements are mixed to resemble wines.

SHOULD COWS BE cARpFp.

Most certainly cows should be kept
clean, and they cannot be without being
frequently carded and brushed. One
who tries it the first time will not
need to think about the matter. The
way the COWS will turn their heads and
necks and stop eating to enjoy the
scratching of the skin and the final
brushing will tell an ineligible story
of how they like il. AS the skin is an
excretory organ and throws off large
quantity of waste matter, as may be
known by the odor of close stable,
if it is not kept in healthful action by
this carding and brushing, this matter
is retained in the blood and cannot
help but get into the milk, where it
makes that strong odor which has been
called the animal odor. 1t is, how
ever, only the odor of dirty skin, as
is SO well known to apply to human
beings who are not cleanly in this di-
rection. Cows should be we'll carded
and brushed before every milking.
The udder and teats should not be
neglected either, as these may badly
need washing at times. New York

A FAD MEFD.

The burdock is bad weed, from
the multiplicity of its seeds and the
readiness with which they are dis
tributed by the wind and by passing
animals or persons. Cutting the bur
dock down when It's beginning to form
blossoms will usually kill it, as at this
stage of growth the root has but little
vigor left, But when these large bur-
docks are piled for burning there
should be plenty of dry wood in the
heap, so as to make hot fire. If the
weeds are burned alone some of the
seed will fall down to the bottom of
the burning pile and escape de.
struction. In a slow fire made from
green weeds there is stratum of car.
bonic acid gas at the bottom OF the
heap in which nothing will burn. -

In giving reasons for his adherence to to-
nj abstinence, a Californian lately advanced
hese two powerful arguments in support OF
lis course. OF the numerous occasions OF
lin, said he, intemperance is by far the
greatest. 1t Is head aud shoulders over
hem all. We can make this statement even
stronger, for we are told in no uncertain
ones ny our Prison Chaplains, our Judges,
and by those IN u position to know, that
aineteen-twentieths OF the crime brought 10
.helr notice is the direct result Of intemper-
lnce. Upon this point that eminent prelate,
Cardinal Manning. says; "lf drunkenness is
one sin it is the foundation out OF which
zones all manner of sin. So long ne man
Is sober, so long will he resist temptation;
but when he has lost his sense md his will
there is nothing he will not do" Aud with
the full realization tleso words give Us OF
the extent and power of this greatest OF all
temptations, is it not the sensible course TO
steer rs clear of ii rs possible? Have we not
heard the warning, "he that loves danger
shall perish therein" However, confident
of our own moral strength, we heed 1t not,
we see not the dreadful examples OF our
brothers who, like us, went forth in the
pride of their strength, aud the result is that
we fall. | nm q total abstainer gecause l
fully appreciate my own moral weakness
when in the strong arms of temptation.
Therefore, l place the temptation from me,
and the self denial makes me all the stronger.
Inasmuch as the family Is the unit OF the
social structure, the relation OF intemper-
ance to the family becomes important.
Unfortunately that relation is but too WE'LL
known. Intemperance has been nptly
termed the destroyer OF the family" Who
has not seen the happy home, the peaceful
flreside, devastated and latd bare by this
demon Of drink viii we do nothing to pre-.
vent this curse from sapplng the very life Of

mind to go right into the business in

farmer expects to expend upon corn

Strange it is that an otherwise good
farmer who will tend his corn crop
