S?. C iiese Know the action of «P*uui and
and it often happens that they renew
tbe*plasteriug of the kitchens for tiio purpose
ot making use of the old matter for manure.
No Chinese farmer ever sows a seed of corn
wore it has been soaked in liquid manure, dt-
iutr.1 with water, ar.d has begun to gormina-e:
and experience has taught him (so he asserts)
Srt this operation not only tends to promote
Uio growth and development of the plant, hut
also to protect the seed Irorn the msccts bid
den in the ground.
During the summer mouths, ail kiuds ot
Tcgoiable refuse are mixed with turf, straw,
grass, peat, weeds and earth, collected into
heaps, and when quite dry set on lire; after
several days of slow combustion, the entire
mass is convened into a kind of black earth.
The compost is ouly employed for the manur
ing of seeds. When secd-lirao arrives, one
makes holes in the ground ; another follow s
with tbo seed, which ho places in the holes;
and a third adds this black earth. The young,
seed p(aultdm this maimer grows with such
extraordinary vigor, that it is theroby enabled
to push its rootlets through the hard,solid eoil
and to cie’cct its mineral constituents.
The Chinese farmer sons his wheat, after
the graius bavo been soaked in liquid manure,
quito close iu seed-beds, and afterwards trans
plants it. Occasionally, also, the soaked graius
are immediately sown in the Held properly
prepared for their reception, at au interval of
lour inches from each other. 1 ho time ot
transplanting is towards tbo month of Decern
her. In March the teed sends up from Seven
to nine stalks with ears, but the straw issbort-
tr tbau with us. I have beeu told that wheat
yields lUO fold more—which amply repays the
care aud labor bestowed upon it.
lu Chusan, and tbo entire rico districts of
Cheltiaug aud Kcangaoo. two plants aro oxc’.n
eively cultivated for tho purpose of serviug ai
grteu tuanuio for the rico Helds; the ono is a
speciesol t’orouilla, clover is tho other. Jtroad
furrows, similar pi those intended for celery
are made, and the seeds are planted ou the
ridges in patchas, at a distance of live inches
from each other. In the courso of a few days
germination begins, and long beforo the win
ter is gone, the entire Hold is covered with ;
iuxuriaul vegetation. In Aptil tho plants are
plowed in, and decomposition soon begins, at-
tended with a most disagreeable odor. This
method is adopted iu all phtcos wbero rico is
grown.
Corn Beer.
Boil a pint of good sound corn until it be
comes soft without bursting; add to it a quart
of good molasses and one gallon of water.—
Put the com, molasses and water in a .jug
shake ir well, and in ril hours tho beer will bo
excellent. When ail the beer is used, just add
more niolas. cs and water. Tim samo corn w il
answer for several months, and after the lira
time the beer will be lit lor use in It! hours, in
warm weather. A gallon will not cost over 10
cents, and a glass lint a fraction over a half
cent. When well made, it is better and more
wholesome tbau eider.
Blackberry’ Jam.
The fruit should bo ripe, and gathered in
dry weather. I so half a pound of good brown
sugar to each pound of tho berries. Boil gent
ly for one hour, stirring and mashing thorn
well. This jam is useful in families, particu
larly of children. It is batter to spread on
bread nr puddings than butter, and is cheaper,
where the berries bare to bo bought. In (be
country, where they cost nothing, every family
should preserve a large quantity lor fall and
winter use.
Build up :t Homestead.
The. feeling that you are settled and fixed
•till induce you to work to ituprovo your farms,
o plant orchards, to set out shado trees, to
inclose pastures, to build comfortable out
houses, and each successive improvement is a
!»»ml to bind you still closer to your homes,
l ids will briug contentment iu tho family.—
four wives and daughters will fall in love with
tbo country, your sons will lovo home belter
than grqg-shops, and prefer farming to mea
uring tapo or professional loallng, and you
" ill bo bnppy in seeing the contentetf and
cheerful faces of your families. Make your
homes beautiful, convenient and pleasant, and
your children will lovo It above all other places,
they will leave it with regret, think of it with
fondness, come back to it joyfully, seek their
chief happiness around their borne fireside.
Women and children need more than meat,
bread and raiment; more than acres of corn
and cotton 3prcad out all around them. Their
love for tho beautiful must be satisfied.—
I’hcir tastes must bo cultivated ; their eensi-
oiiilieshumored, not shocked. To accomplish
this good end, home must be made lovely, con
venience multiplied, comforts provided, and
heeifulness fostered. There must bo both
sunshine and shade, luscious fruit and fragrant
iowers, as well as corn aud cotton. The miud
ind heart as well as the fields must be culti-
itod ; and then intelligence and contentment
will be tho rule instead of the exception.—
Stick to, improvo aud beautify your borne
steads, for with this good work cornea con

The Mysteries of Bees.
In every well-balanced colony of bees is a
queen, or what is more properly called a mo
ther bee, tho duty of which is simply tho lay-
ing or eggs. To her has been attributed roy
alty, Re. yet she exercises no authority what
ever ever mu inmates ot tue Uivo. tier simple
duty is the laying o! eggs, and tho mother is
governed by 0:10 infallible rttlo-abundance of
honey and the requisite warmth to mature
tho brood. When they possess those requisites
the swarm may lie considered a well balanced
ouo. But the mother is neither more nor loss
than a slave horn her birth to her death. As
soon as slio begins to fail in furnishiug the
requisite amouut of eggs f or the colony the
workers will commence cells in which they
place eggs to 1 car another mother 10 take the
place of their own, which they intond to su

How to Ia*ave the Wheat Field.
Thtfle is a difl'erer.ce of opinion among good
farmers as to whether the wheat- field should
h« rolled before or after drilling in the seed
I here i* „„ doubt that rolling, if tho ground
w> dry enough, either beforo or aftur sowing,
ja as important and beneficial aa operation as
narrowing. It crushes ihe lumps, compacts
the sod and smooths the surface. Those who
»'or rolling after sowing contend by thus
smoothing the surface the water, of course,
paa.se* off flat land more rapidly in the winter
