YARD MANURE.
Every farmer has the materials on
),is own farm to enrich it. How shall
lie apply them ? How make his com
post heaps? I answer, with his yard
manure, and the soil mixed with it;
anil in the room of ashes or lime, to
make it decompose, give me hog noses.
Writers may talk about their chemical
of mineral agents, but for me give me
hogs. Yes, keep hogs. Keep them in
your manure cellars, and throw in
Vour coarse materials; their noses will
sooner decompose a sod than all the
nostrums of the chemist. Hogs will
work better than Irishmen, whose
trade it is to spade and toss up the
earth. Hogs will work seven days in
the week, while you must be pretty
luckv to find a human laborer who will
serve you faithfully through six. If a
farmer has a dozen head of cattle, he
may make fifty cords or 200 loads of
excellent manure every year. From
the first of July to September, be must
occasionally haul in other materials.
Persons living near the city may buy
manures, but those living some leu
miles away can not all’ord to haul it to
their farms. I, for one would not
want to haul it. for I make just as
good for less than half what it would
cost me in Boston. Some farmers with
forty head of cattle, I am sorry to say,
make less manure than others with
but seven head. But I could not ad
vise any of my friends to follow the
example of the farmers with the forty
head. My advice to all is, keep cattle;
make your hogs work; no labor is
cheaper than hog labor, and none
brings a better return. —Massachusetts

BINTS ON WASHING}.
The quickest and best way to do the
washing for a family of six or eight
persons: I’ir.t, have plenty of boiling
water; to every boiler-ful add from
two to three tablespoonfuls of pulver
ized borax; use some of the borax-wa
ter from the boiler for every tubful of
clothes, adding only enough cold wa
ter to make it comfortable for the
hands; use soap on the most soiled,
and rub on the board or through a
washing-machine; do not boil the
clothes; have a tub partly full of boil
ing hot borax water in which to put
the clothes that have been rubbed; let
them remain in the hot borax-water
until you are ready to rinse them;
from a quarter to a half hour will do;
rinse in one clear water, without
borax. Use very little, if any, blueing.
Borax will not injure the texture of
the finest linen, and for infants’ clothes
or Hannels it is the only thing that can
bo used with perfect safety. If stock
ings or seeks are badly stained, they
might be boiled in borax-water for a
few minutes only—too much boiling
makes clothes yellow. Borax acts
slowly but surely. The improvement
\ m clothes washed after this direction
will he noticed after the second or
third trial, often after the first. Add
'•* ‘easpoonful of borax to every quart
Bjfildarch —it will keep the starch from
and add to I he polish.

We can point out in Talbml
jjfpjnly inany who pursue this coursej
en joy many comforts. Those who
HPk farthest from it, enjoy life the
least. Experience is a school at which
everybody is taught, and, as in every
other school, the fool is the dullest
scholar, but he must, and will learn —
ho learns in no other.’
This is strong language, but it is
true language, and cannot lie repeated
too oiten. We prate continually about
‘mdependence,' and our irksome de
pendence upon ‘monopolies,’ but un
less we begin economy and common
souse living at home, in our own
households and farms, our slavery
bonds will never be broken—we will
ever be obliged to live away from home,
and pay dearly for doing so.—The
Grange.
Anew laundry process in France is
thus described: One kilo (two pounds)
of soap is reduced with a little water
to a sort of pap, which having been
slightly warmed, is cooled iu forty-five
litres (ten gallons) of water, to which
is added one spoonful of turpentine oil
and two spoonfuls of ammonia; then
the mixture is agitated. The water is
kept at a temperature which may be
borne by the hand. In this solution
are introduced the white clothes, and
they are left there two hours before
washing them in soap, taking care in
the meantime to cover the tub. The
soapy v, iter may bo warmed again and
bo used once more, but it will be ne
cessary to add half a spoonful of tur
pentine and another spoonful of am
monia. Once washed in soap, the
clothes are put in warm water and the
bine is applied. This process, it is ob
vious, spares much time, much labor
ar.d fuel. On the other hand, it gives
to the clothes a whiteness much supe
rior to that obtained by any other
method.

Cucumbers are generally permitted,
or compelled rather, to grow fiat upon
the ground, but vines have been train
ed upon trellises with the happiest re
sults. Indeed, nature never intended
the cucumber for a mere surface ruu
uer, else it woul i have been provided
with graspmg tendrils. A low order
of trellis keeping both vine and fruit
above, or off the ground, add largely
to the yield and quality. When space
is an object, great saving of ground
may be accomplished by training upon
high trellises.
llow to Choose a Good Cow.—A
crumply horn is a good indication; a
hid eye another. Iler head should ht
siiiaii and short. Avoid a Roman nose
which indicates thin milk and little of
it. See that she is dished iu the face,
sunk between the eyes. Notice that
she is what stock men call a good
handler—skin soft, and loose like that
of a dog. Deep from the lion to the
udder and very slim tail. A cow witli
these marks never fails to be a good

S. S. COX’S SOUTHERN TOUR.
A Cincinnati dispatch says: “S. S.
Cox has just arrived in this city from
an extended tour through the South,
having visited every Southern State
except Mississippi. Your correspon
dent called on him this afternoon at
the Burnett House to learn the
result of his observations. Mr. Cox
said that the people in the South were
not much inclined to talk politics,
being so thoroughly satisfied with the
disenthralment from military bondage
that they were content to plant and
prepare for the rebuilding of their for
tunes, wasted by the past 15 years of
strife. The idea, however, which was
being widely spread by Republicans
that the members of the Democratic
party in the South were going over to
the Republicans, because one man in
the party had at this late hour made a
showing of justice toward them, was
utter nonsense. The South, he said,
will stand by the Democratic party
and its members will go into the Dem
ocratic caucus without hesitation and
in full force. The idea that Hayes’
policy would draw any strength from
the Democratic ranks was a falso one.
It would rather strengthen the party,
by causing a split in the Republican
faction. He thought the postpone
ment of the extra session was a good
thing for the Democrats and for the
country, as there were plenty of banks
that would advance money enough to
run the army—which army might, he
thought, be dispensed with had we a
wise Indian policy, such as that of
Canada.
The people of Louisiana are engaged
in the unwholesome task of balancing
their accounts against the carpet-bag
gers and Radical saints. Leaving out
details, we are told that the Louisiana
State debt of $1,000,000, at the close
of the war, was run up, under the pro"
visional goverment, to $10,000,000 in
1807, and, under the Republican offi
cials who took hold that year, it grew
to $22,430,000 in 1874. Of this in
crease of $12,500,000, added between
1807 and 1874, a correspondent of the
New York Tiibuue says: “According
to the statements of eminent bankers
of both parties, about $0,000,000 were
stolen ” By compromise with bond
holders the State debt was refunded
at 00 cents on the dollar, reducing it
to about $15,000,000. The Constitu
tion now forbids any increase, and the
Nicholls Democracy have cut down the
running of the machine $1,000,000 per
aunurn. The Radical rascals ruined
the State, or came within in an ace of
doing it. Democracy have gone to
work manfully to redeem it. If they
can eliminate the infamous Warmoth
their chances will be first-class.
The Democratic party now stand
ready to approve and applaud all good
actions of the Administration, but be
yond that a deep and impossible gulf
lies between its principles of Democra
cy and Republicanism. The lalter
lead direcly to centralized government;
the lormer to the freest local self
government with the unity
of the Republic/the GreeK.2f?i3ter.

Are the most ef
fective and conge
nial purgative eve?
discovered. They
are mild, but ef
; fectual in their
6 operation, moving
the bowels surely
and without pain.
1 Although gentle
f in their operation,
: they are still the
i i most thorough and
searching cathar-
tic medicine that can be employed : cleans
ing the stomach and bowels, and even the
blood. In small doses of one pill a day,
they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health.
Ayer’s Fills have been known for
more than a quarter of a century, and have
obtained a world-wide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that obstruc
tions within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the every-day complaints of every
body, hut also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffled the best of
human skill. While they produce power
ful effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. By
their aperient action they gripe much less
than tlie common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not inflamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety' by' anybody. Their
sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any’ quantity.
