Ashes in Agriculture.—Wood
asties is one of the most important fer
tilizers. It is easily obtained in any
quantity, and at litiie or no expeml
lake them carefully from your hearth*
and save tuem until your corn aad po
tatoes have nsen two or three inches
trom the ground, and then take & bas
ket on your arm, and from it a small
handful of ashes, and cast it at the root
of your plants aud hoe them soon, so as
to cover the ashes.
Ashes contain all the inorganic sub-
tance of the wood or plants which are
consumed; part of these are soluble
and part insoluble. But the soluble
substanees, mixed with water, will
dissolves the insoluble. Thus, dissolv-
ed potash will dissolve silica and pre
pare it for glazing the stalks of cane
corn, wheat, &e.
Not a particle of ashes should go to
waste. Leached ashes has parted with
most of its potash, but still retains it*
phosphoric acid and most of its lime.
Ashes neutrilized acids in the soil •
they warm cold, messy, wet places; they
are very distruetive to insects; thev
assist to break down and dissolve the
coarse fibres and stalks in compost
heaps; render hard, clavey soils open
loamy and fertile.
I lie potash, so material to most
crops, can be obtained here onlv from
ashes. In granite regions potash is ob
tained from the dissolution of the feld
spar, but we have none in this region
of country.
W heat contains a large proportion
of potash. Fifty-nine per cent, of the
ash ot corn is carbonate of potash; onc-
halfof the ear i.y portion of Irish pota
toes is pure potash.
kSuve your asucs, therefore, careful
ly as you do your five and ten cent
pieces, apply them to your crops wiih
with care and you will them of a rich
deep green color while growing, aad
heavy with nutriment at harvest.—

What a Confession:—Lord By-
rOn in speaking of his life said, ‘1-once
attended to. enumerate the. happy days
1-had li ved, which might, according to
the common use of language, be call'
ed happy ; I could never make them
count more than eleven, and I believe
h have a 'very- distinct remembefance
of every one. I often ask myself
whether between the present - time
and the day of r&y death, I shall be
able to make up the round dozen.”

Beautiful Scene in the Arctic
Regions.—It was a dead calm, aud
the very cliffs in shore were seen mir
rored on the water, glassy smoothness
of which unbroken except by the plash
ing of the oars of a long line of boats
ahead of each of the ships. The tran
sparency of the atmosphere *was such
as can oniy be conceived by those who
have visited arctic countries, and the
whole scene was one that will be diffi
cult to forget, the moreso since it \vn<
here we saw one of the most beautiful
icebergs of the many it was our for
tune to observe during the voyage. It
was of immense size. ’ The sou th side,
on which \vb advanced Towards it, was
ahmos’t perpendicular, as’ if’ a recent
split had taken place; but on round
ing the corner and coming abreast of
the west, which^ we did almost with
in ftrm r s length, we found it to be
curiously wrought into ledges—ledge
i-bove ledge, each festooned with a
fringe of crystal icicles, which here and
there reaching the ledge beneath,
formed column slender as those of a
SaracCnie mosque; within'them ran a
gallery green as emerald- Two or
three tiny cascades were tinkling from
1 edge to ledge, and fel l with a soft
blash into tile water beneatli, sending
the.pcarL-like bubbles dancing from
them .over the .smooth surface. ATI
wasglancing and glittering beueath the
bright, sun, and if I had had it iu mv
power,! could have stood for hours to
gazeat it. Passing the corner the north
side, wag seen to be cut into two deep
little bays with sloping shores, a long
point running oat betvyeqn them. The
lowestdedge of. the west side rounded
the corner and inclined down towaads
the nearest bay, -if so it may be.called,
and ending in a broad platform. . This
little bay seemed so snug, and lay so
beautifully to-the sun, that, unnatural
as it- may appear, one could not help
fancying It, as.a fit site for a pretty cot-
tage.
Keeping Mile from Souring.—
Vv e have seen it recommended in a
number of our exchanges, to ase a
little soda in sweet milk, for the pur
pose of preventing it becoming sour
.taring very not weather, and especial
ly m thunder storms. We cannot
but thiuk that this is far from being a
commendable plan. The best way* to
piescrte milk is to keep it in e'ean
vessels in a cool, dry airy place.—
when mdkbecomes sour, tfte cream
should at once be skimmed off for
churning into butter.
There can be no doubt bat a littfe
^oda, which is an an kali, will prevent
tank from becoming acidulous, as soon
as it otherwise would,.but the cure is
j ust as bad as the evil.
Whitewash.—Poor whitewash is
a Serious inforv to a wall or eeilimr
and when once on it is difficult to get
itotf or properly coyer it and produce
ifcmear, white appearance. This is the
reason for cleaning up, and we will give
me receipt for a tisirate wash. Quick
•iftie, slackeneed bv boiling water stir
ring it until so slacked. When dis-
ilve in water white vitroil, (sulpphate
to zinc,) which you get at the drug
gists, at the rate of two pounds of zinc
of a half-barrel of white wash,
jt of the consistency of rich milk!—
This sulphate of zinc will cause the
wash to harden; and to prevent the
lime from rubbing off, a pound of fine
salt should be thrown into it—[Ex

Pickle
Meertchaum.—this is a mineral
of a whi te earthy appearance; it is com
posed of silica carbonic acid. It is
found in many parts of the world—

soft and. greasy, and lathers Kke soap

A Convenient way to
Cucumbers
Put 6ome spiced vinegar in a jar
with a little salt in it. Every time,
you gather a mess pour boiling vine
gar on them with a little alum in it.
Then put them in the spiced vinegar.
Keep the same vinegar for scalding all.
\Yhenyou have enough, take them
from the spiced vinegar, and scald
them in the alum vinegar two or three
minutes, and then put them back in
the spiced vinegar.—Miss Beecher's
Recipe Booh.
Grape Vine Grubs.—A small
white grub is very prevalent this sea
son in grape vines. It makes its m-st
uider a leaf which curls up and
screens it from common observation.—
All those who have grape vines will
do Well to give them a thorough ex-
amination. A punctured or curled
leaf is a sure sign of its presence.-
I’he only. sure way to destroy
them is to pick them off by hand.
(>eess like that for making put
ter}’ ware. The bowls < f these pines
are pp>pared for sale in' Germany by
soaking them first ih taller,, then in
.wax, after which, they are polished up.
Preparation of Celery.—The,
Horticulturist recommends highly
stewed eelefy.—Cut the blanched or
white portion of the celery stalks in
jueces aliout an inch in length, and
put them in a saucepan over the fire
with, milk and water, in equal propos
tions, barely suffeient to cover them
add a little salt,-and let them stew gen
tly, until perfectly tender.—Then take
out the celery, add a piece of batter
to the liquid it was boiled in, thicken
it slightly with flour, pour it aver the
celery and serve it nr>.
