BBtersville, Ga., Nov. 14, 1878. , * THE FARIF.ES. The farmer cams in from the field oi.e day, His languid step and his weary way, His corded brow, his sinewy band, Showed bis work for the good of the land ; Forhe sows. And hejhoes, Aud he mows, JJJI for the good of the laud. By the ki-cbcn fire stood the patient wife, Light of his home, and joy of of hie life, With face all aglow and busy hand, Preparing the meal for her husband’s band ; For she must boil, • And she must broil, . . . And she must toil, All for the good of the home. The blight sun shines as the farmer goes out The birds sing sweet songs lambs fr.sk about The brook bubbles softly in the glen; While he works so bravely for the good of men For he sows. And he mows, And he hoes, All for the good of the laud. Ilow lightly the wife steps about from within The dishes to wash, the milk to skim : The fire goes out, the flies buzz about, For the dear ones at home her heart is stout; There are pies to make, Aud bread to bake, And steps to take, All for the sake of the home. When the day is o’er and the evening is come The creatures are fed, the milking done ; He takes bis rest, ’ueath the old shade tree, From the labor of the laud his thoughts is free Though he sows, And he hoes, Aud he mows, * He rests Irom the work of the land. But his faithful wife, from sun to sun, Takes her burden up that is never down ; There is no rest, there is no play. For the good of the house we must work away For to mend the frock, And knit the sock, And the cradle to rock, All for the good of the home. Wiieu autumn is here wtth its chilling blast, I be fanner gathers his crop at last ; His barns are full his fields aie bare, For tbe good of the land he ne’er have care ; While it blows, And it snows, '1 he winter goes, lie rests from the work of the laud. Ant the willing v ife, till life’s closing day, Is the children’s guide, the husband’s stay ; From day to day she has done her best, Until death alone can give her rest; For after the test, Comes the rest, With the blest, By the farmers heavenly home. MOUTH OOWIYG. Mr. Foote, in Massachusetts, ha3 traced the tup-root of a common red clover plant downward to the per pendicular depth of nearly five feet. Mucilage such as is used on pos tage stamps is made of dextrine 2 partß, acetic acid 1 part and Water 5 parts. Dissolve in a water bath and add alchol 1 part. Alum dissolved in hot water will destroy bed-bugs, moths, and other vermin. Apply a strong solution to furniture and crevices with a paint brush. Wet the edges of carpets. Cornstalks are worth the patting ia the crop, if well saved and cured. A reasonable e timate of their value lor feed is about three-fifths as much as hay. Let the stalks be thoroughly cured before being stacked. Common rock salt, dried in an oven and pulver.zed, mixed with an equal part of spirits ol turpentine, will kill a felon in twenty-four hours. Keep a rag constantly wet with the preparation on the leion during that time. A cone-poudent writes to the Scientific American that the worst toothache, or neura'gia coming from t;e teeth, may be speedily ended by the a; plicatii n of a bit of cotton sat urated in a solution of amoniu to the defective tooth. Oalift r.iia fanners are cultivating fig-trees tor the sole puipose of rais ing and fattening hogs. This fruit contains large quantities of sacchar rine matter, hence is very fattening. The fig-tree, once well started, re quires little atbntion, bears several crops a year, and is very prolific. A superior dressing for black kid L bo ts may bo made by taking bait a ► t ; acupful of printer’s black ink; stand ♦e cup in a small pan ot hot water until the ink is heated, then melt in it a common tallow caudle; stir well together; rub into the kid with a soft pi ce of tlannel. This not only gives the boots a fine polish, but makes them wear longer. answer to the question, “Why are fa: mors so liable to rheumatism r the Science of Health says : If farm ers would avoid suddenly cooling the body after great exeition, if they would be careful not to go with wet clotlmg and wet feet, and if they world not p\er eat when in an ex hausted condition, and bathe daily, using much friction, they would have li tie or no rheumatism. The acid of apples, says the Prarie Farmer, is among the most healthful -if substances taken into the human -tomach. It rouses the action of the liver when torpid, and thus enables it to eliminate and throw oil’ the germs of billious disorders, and those of oth er diseases arising from slow blood uoison. They must also be classed as among the most important and valuable of the vegetable growths, especially for that class who work with the brain. It is a mistake to expect to succeed at farming without plenty of good honest wotk. Some men may have made money w ithout work, but no farm r ever made a crop without a good deal of that indispensible ar ticle. In the fall turn up the soil of your gardens not plauted in wiuter and >uiing crops. It mellows the soil, ills insects, drives out acids. Turn up iu high ridges, and bring fresh loam to the surface to be acted on by the atmosphere. Give your fattening hogs a variety of food in the earlier stages and close with corn. Plenty of salt is es settial. It eliminates from the blood lad dements. Keep salt and ashes where stock can get at them all the time. Founder. The following is sim ple, and said to be effective : Clean the bottom of the foot thor oughly, hold it up, pour in as much spit its of turpentine as it will hold .vithout danger of running over,touch the turpentine off with a red hot iron —this will set it on fire-hold the hoof firmly in this position antil it all burns out. Care must be taken that none runs on the hair of the hoof, lest the skin be burned. If all the feet are effected burn all. Relief will speedily follow and the animal be ready for service in a short time. I once applied this remedy to a horse fonndered twenty-four hours before, and he was promptly relieved. In another case, where the animal could scarcely be made to move, his suffer ing was so great, he was treated iu the same manner and less than an hour after was hitched to a buggy and driven twenty-five inihs, all lame ness disappearing after he had travel ed a few miles. place a small quantity in a teacup, and if it does easily ignite when brought iu contact with a lighted ta per or match, it poor oil will ignite instantly. Keep oil in a ten gallon can, wi h a faucet at the low’er port so as to draw off into a smaller can or lamp filler filler; set the can in a cool dark place ; keep all tho arti cles used for cleaning, filling and trimming lamps by themselves. For these purposes provide an old waiter t > h Id the things—a lamp filler, pair ot scissors, or a lamp-trimoier, box of wicks, soap, wash soda, and several soft cloths and towels, also a wire hairpin, to keep open the vent in the burner. When lamps need an extra < leaning, add one tab! spoonful of so da to a quart of water, being careful that none of the bronz • gilding comes in contact with the soda. When the wick b comes too short to carry up the kerosene, and you have not time to put in anew wick, a piece of cotton rag pinned on below will prove a good feeder. If a hole is broken in a glass chimney, paste on a piece of paper, and it will answer its purpose unt.l you get anew chimney When the burners of lamps become gummy, and prevent the wicks mov ing freely, boil them up in suds over the fire a short time, and they wili become entirely clean and work well. SWEET POTATOES—HOW TO KEEPTHE3I. In the first place, dig them at the right time, and the right time is when they are ripe. Break a potato open, and if it exudes a gummy juice, and turns dark when it dries, it is not ripe, and will not keep no matter how you hill it or protect it. On the oth er hand, if it breaks dry and main tains its white color when it ia bro ken, it will keep, even in spite of careless handling. Tbe best time to dig the potato is after a long dry spell. If they are allowed to remain in the ground after a rain, long enougn to take on anew growth, they w ill certainly not keep well. It is not nece-sary that the frost should kill the vines before digging, if a long dry spell has already stopped their growth. If, how’ever, the vines have continue green and vigorous, and the potateos are in a sappy condition let them stand until the vines are killed by the frost. In the next place, handle them carefully in digging. Do not allow them to be thrown about carelessly and skinned. Have them gathered in ba-kets, wiihout being thrown in, carried in tne same baskets ta the place where they are to be hilled, and emptied with as little braising as possible. Select all the broken and out potatoes, and keep them apart from the others. FALL PLANTING OF ORCHARDS. There are many reasons why trees do better pi mted at this season than at any other. The following from the New’ York Times contains about all that need be said; ‘There are several advantages in this. There is more time aud oppor tunity to perform the w’ork w 7 ell ; and, if not well done, it were better not done at all. The trees come fresher from the nursery, aud are generally better in kind and charac ter than can be procured in the spring; there is also a full stock on hand, and the varieties desired are more certain to be received than later, when the stock has been sold dow r n. The trees are generally planted w ith more care at this season, and the roots begin to grow at once and become estab lished before the growth begins in the spring, and are then able to with stand with more vigor any uutoward influences of season or weather. All the=e advantages are very important, and are sufficient to insure success in the majority. AIRING BUDS. No housekeeper has any valid claim to ueatutss, cleanliness aud tiiliuess, who makes her beds as soon as they are vacated; or, if she has such a claim, it is based on the condition of ignorance. To demonstrate this, let it be remembered that of all food aud drink taken, about three-tilths pass out of the system through the outlets of the skin—the pores about seven million in number. The waste aud effete putrid matter is dead and poi sonous, passing otf more rapidly by night, aud becoming more or less en tangled in the bedding and on the sui lace of tbe body. Hence the ne cessity of bathing and brushing, with still greater necessity for airiug aud purityin the bedding. This is done most effectually by exposure in the light of the sun aud morning air. In deed, the sun is the greater purifier, and ‘nothing is hid lrom the heat thereof.’ Aud here it may be remem bered that the bedding ol the sick, so soon saturated by the fil h of acute diseases, by being changed at least once iu six hours, aud exposed to the free sunlight lor the same time, will be safe with halt the washing other wise needed. Such clothes canpot be kept too clean, while there is no dau ger of too much care in these respects, as one of the means of controlling such acute disease3 as fevers and in flammations. Ttie Dutch method of placing all the movable clotties of tne bed on two chairs, near the window, allowing them to remain till afternoon, might well be copied by Yankee house keepers. How Watches are Made. —lt will be apparent to anyone, who will examine a Solid Gold Watch, that aside from the necessary thickness for engraving and polishing, the large proportion of the precious metal used, is needed only to stiffen and hold the engraved portions iu place and supply the necessary solidity and strength. The surplus gold is actually needless, so far as utility and beauty are concerned. In James Boss’ Patent Stiffened Gold Watch Cases this waste of precious metal is overcome, and the same solidity and strength produces at from one-third to one-half of the usual cost of solid cases. This process is of the most simple nature, as follows : A plate of composition metal specially adapted to the purpose, has two plates of solid gold soldered one on each side, The three are then passed between polish ed steel rollers, and the result is a strip of heavily plated composition, from which the cases, backs, centres, bezels, <tc., are cut and shaped by suitable dies and formers. The gold in these cases is sufficiently thick to admit of all kinds of chasing, engrav mg and enamelling; and engraved cases have been carried until worn perfecrly smooth by time and use without removing the gold. These cases are for sale by all jewellers, and guaranteed by Special Certificate to wear for 20 years' If your jeweler does not keep them, send to Hagstoz & Thorpe, Ledger Building, Phila delphia, for illustrated catalogue.
