SODS FOR MULCHING.
All know how the soil in flower
beds becomes packed by the Irequent
watering necessary in hot weather to
keep plants in good growing condi
tion, and that it is not always conve
nient to stir the ground every day to
keep it open. So some resort must
be had to mulching, or covering the
ground with something to keep the
moisture from escaping. Dry leaves,
manure, straw or hay are mostly used
for this purpose; but these are often
unsightly, and especially in front
yards, the observed of all observers.
This season I have used sods, skin
ned thin off the surface, and turned
upside down among the growing
plants- Have plunged spots into the
ri ound containing oleanders, carna
tions, roses, and others, covering
the spots with inverted sods, and
they do not require near so much
watering as if left bare, and there is
not the appearance ot a straw heap
around them. Strewing the ground
A\ith grass, hao, or unrotted manure
is liable to seed down the flower-bed
w ith noxious weeds—the dislike of
every tasteful gardener.—[Record &
Repository.
POTATOES 3 ROSCRIJjED.
Several German writers upon ra
ces predict that nations, far from im
proving, will deteriorate, both in
physical and mental characteristics if
potatoes become a principal article
of diet. The celebrated Bari Voight
says that the nourishing potato does
not restore the wasted tissues, but
makes our poletariats physically and
mentally weak. The Holland physi
ologist, Mulder, gives the same judg
ment when he says that the excessive
use of- potatoes among the poorer
classes, and coflee and tea by higher
ranks, is tlie cause of the indolence
of nations. Leinderfrost maintains
that the revolutions of the last three
centuries have been caused by the
enanged nourishment" the lowest
workman, in former times ate more
flesh t han now, when the cheap pota
to forms his principal subsistence,
hut gives him no muscular no nerv
ous strength.
COST OF GROWING ROOT
CROPS.
At a late meeting of the Central
New York Farmer’s Club, at Utica,
Hon. Harris Lewis read an essay on
the subject of “Root Culture, ’’ in
which he saie :
“The cost to me of roots will av
erage about as follows : carrots, thir
teen cents per bushel of 60 pounds;
beets, including yellow globe, long,
red, lanes, imperials, and three kinds
ot sugar beets, seven cents per bush
el of 60 pounds”
He grows these roots very largely
for feeding his dairy cows.
APPLE FRITTERS.
This is :i favorite dish with many,
and often preferred to dumplings.—
Make a hatter, not very stiff with one
quart milk, three eggs, and flour to
bring it to right consistence. Pare
and core half a dozen large apples,
and chop them to about the size of
small peas, and mix them well in the
batter. Fry them in lard, as you do
doughnuts. For trimmings, powder
ed sugar is the best, though good
brown sugar will do.
TO PROTECT LEATHER.
Long continued observations show
that harness and other leather expos
ed to the action of ammonia continu
ally given off m stables, becomes
weak and rotten sooner than other
leather. Even when care is taken to
protect them with grease this takes
place. One authority recommends
the addition of an equal quantity of
glycerine to their oil or fat employed
in greasing such kind of leather, as
serting that it always keeps it very
pliable and soft.
CUT-WORMS AND CORN.
A correspondent of the Country
Gentleman gives this treatment of
corn as a sure way to keep it from
the attacks of cut-worms :
Soak the coni m water till it swells
as large as the kernels will ordinarily
expand, then add a pound and a half
of copperas dissolved in warm water,
and allow it to soak one day, stirring
it several times. Afterward sprinkle
enough land plaster over it to pre
vent the grain from sticking together.
LIVE LTOCK.
All kinds need some attention —
the horses mules, and oxen ; see that
they are regularly fed and watered,
and not overworked, sheep should be
supplied with tar, over which salt is
sprinkled, as a protection against the
fly, which deposits the eggs from
which the grubs or worms in the
head are produced, and hogs to re
ceive green food, or have the run of
a clover field.
Lemons sprinkled with loaf sugar
almost completely allay feverish
thirst. Invalids affected with fever
ishness can safely consume two or
three a day.
Oye might as well skin a horse and
expect it to work for him, as to skin
a farm and expect it to grow crops.
Labor-saving implements give the
farmer power and time—power to
cultivate the soil, time to cultivate
the mind.
It is estimated that fully 200,000
farmers in the Western States have
organized for mutual protection du
ring the past few months.
