Canning Fruits—Hints About It.
Every housekeeper ought to know how to
can fruit and vegetables, because the canned
article, if die canning is well done, are much
better when done at home than at factories,
and, besides, ono lias more confidence in the
home-prepared article. The Democrat has
an article which contains some valuable
hints on canning fruits. In tho first place,
the fruit to lie canned must lie perfectly
sound and hot even a day overripe, espe
cially currants and berries; neither should
the Small fruit be allowed to stand overnight
after picking, if it can be avoided. The
fruit should bo picked over very carefully
and, if absolutely necessary, may be rinsed
quickly through water and thoroughly
drained; but the flavor will be much better
if it be not. Before beginning operations
have everything ready; the firo just, right,
your jars perfectly clean and roady at hand,
the tops and rubbers where there will not bo
a second lost in getting them when needed;
for much of the success of tho process de
pends on the expedition with which the tops
are put on mul screwed down after the jars
are filled. The jars and the covers should
both be hot. Have a kettle of hot water on
the stove and when the fruit is ready to bo
put in the jars plunge the jar in it so that
tho water will touch the outside and tho in
side at the same time, and then stand the
jar in a dish-pan about a quarter full of hot
water, which should have been already placed
on a table convenient to the stove, with tho
preserving kettle, a silver or wooden spoon,
an earthen cup with a handle, and, if you
have it, a can-filler. Set two or three heated
jars in the pan at the same time. Tho covers
should be in a smaller kettle of hot water
on the stove. Fill the jar with the hot fruit,
run the spoonhandlo down on all sides to let
out the air, and then fill to tho brim with
the hot syrup; put on the rubber, take the
cover from the hot water and screw on
tightly. As the fruit cools screw down
again, and when cold try again, as the glass
contracts in cooling, and it is necessary that
they |houid be air-tight. It is a good plan
to set the jars as soon as filled into another
pan of water, to prevent staining the table,
and also that the juice may not harden on
the outside if any has run over. Always be
careful to have the right cover and rubber
for each jar. A good plan is always to put
the rubber inside the jar and screw the top
on as soon as it has beon emptied and prop
erly washed. There can then lie no mis
take when it Is needed the second time.
Bottles should always lie thoroughly cleaned
when emptied, also the corks belonging to
them, and they will then lie ready when
they are needed for catchup, etc. Wide
mouthed bottles can be used for fruits.
These, also, should be hot when filled and
the sealing done immediately. When tin
cans are used for tomatoes, corn, etc., they
should 1* put in cold water as soon as filled
and soldered immediately. For canning
small fruits a good rule is to allow one-third
of sugar to a pound of fruit. Put water to
the sugar, in tho proportion of about a tea r
cupful of water to each pound of sugar,
make into a syrup and skim carefully. Add
the fruit, let it boil ten minutes and it will
be ready for canning. For pears, peaches,
gages, etc., allow about the same quantity
of sugar as for raspberries; pie-plant will
need a full half-pound of sugar to a pound
of stalk. Peaches should be pared and can
be canned whole or in halves. Pears should
be canned whole, and if dropped immedi
ately into cold water when pared will not
turn black; gages and plums should have the
skin pricked with a needle to prevent burst
ing.
Weeds and Thistles.
Every farmer has more or less trouble
with weeds and thistles and comparatively
few farmers know how to get rid of them
permanently. Tho American Cultivator
says that the light plowing given in early
spring breaks comparatively few of the
roots of tho thistle and does not diminish the
vigor even of these. Tho six-rowed barley
ripens so quickly after sowing that It may
often be harvested before the thistle has
fuirly got Into blossom. If ground
with thistles must be sown, barley is, per
hnps, the best crop to grow for escaping the
pest of thistles.
All that is necessary to destroy any pe
rennial weed is to keep its top suppressed
through ono entire season, especially the
latter part thereof.
Cultivate often enough to cut off tho young
shoot* before they see the light. In com or
potatoes, if thistles appear in the hills,
either pull them up or bury the shoot* in
damp earth to bleach and rot. If a shoot, is
cut off there is far less loss of vitality to the
root than if It is rott-d off. It is much the
same as tho difference between amputating
an arm or letting it mortify, only, unfortu
nately, tho Canada thistle is a many-headed
monster, and killing some root* cannot l>e
expected to destroy the entire imtob. There
is yet no loss of time in killing Canada this
tles, as it is best to have the plants growing
vigorously and full of sap before turning
under. Some even prefer to let them get
in full blossom, believing the vitality of the
root Is more exhausted then than it is ear
lier. By plowing under in June ami keep
ing every slu sit down through the season,
every root may be destroyed. But a Held
should be free from stones or stumps to allow
this to be done.
"Bossing” tho Bull.
A Country Gentleman correspondent
writes: "Having handled Jersey hulls for
muny years,' and Just now- having hud m>iiio
extra trouble witli an eight-months-old nni
illal, I herewith send you description of a
device which may prove useful to some of
your readers: I took a piece of hard wood,
1 by :{ inches, anil cut off two lengths It
inches each, planed them down rmooth, laid
them on toff of each other and with n brace
and live-eighths inch l>it bored a hole at
each end anil one in the centre; then took a
strong piece of half inch hemp rope, put a
knot in ono end, drew it through ono piece
and then the other, up to six inches, knotted
it outside, thus forming the nose piece. The
middle holes I us'd for the head piece, which
must lie adjusted to the size of the animal’s
head, and then under the jaw I put another,
k aving tho second knot loose enough for the
animal to cut, but not so much as to let bnn
get it off his houd, and cutting this rope
al/out long enough to lead hy. In another
piece of wood, six inches lung, I put a liolo
at each end, to which I attached the short
ro|>e and a longer rojie—uctlng as a swivel—
and when we led the bull out in the field and
stumped him down with a twenty foot
tether, he list like u land/, alter one day,
aud it was wonderful how quickly he gave
to letting me he ‘boss.’ ”
Selection in Breeding.
The coupling of two animals cannot, of
itself, says the American Agriculturist,
produce qualities to a degree greater than
the sum of that to which they exist in the
animals and their ancestors. The breeding
of animals can create excellence only by
addition and holding the same. In the true
sense of the term, qualities in animals are
created only by environment. For breeding
to make any improvement, there must first
be one superior animal, and its superiority
can come only of more favorable conditions
surrounding it. Hence improvement is made
along two lines: By surrounding animals
with favorable conditions and by selection
in breeding. Tho first produces in individ
uals greater merit than is possessed by those
animals not so happily situated; the second
combines and holds this merit. The animal
of superior merit not only has more good
points than the average animal, but it has
fewer bad points; and when two superior
animnls are selected and bred their merits
are doubled and their defects are divided as
compared with the merits and faults of ani
mals reproduced in their offspring. It is
plain that selection in breeding can accom
plish nothing unless the animals are first
surrounded by unusually favorable condi
tions. On the other hand, favorable envi
ronment is of little value without selection
in breeding, for the good results produced
by it may be lost with each animal. There
will be no aggregation and retention of
merit. Hence the two must go hand iu
hand.
Lemon Culture in Florida
Tho lemon grove, says the American Ag
riculturist for July, Ik started much the
same ns the orange grovd’, but buddod trees
should always be used, as the fruit of seed
lings is generally worthless. High pine
land is best adapted to the growth of lemon
trees, and the higher and dryer the better;
low lands and hummocks will never give
satisfactory results. The lemon is not ns
hardy as the orange, and consequently can
not lie grown with profit as far north, un
less well protected by bodies of water, or
surrounding forests, and on high land.
The trees may be planted somewhat closer
together than tho orange, as the fruit is
mostly borne on the inside branches, while
orange trees bear more heavily on the outer
limbs. From twenty to twenty-five feet
apart is the usual distance. Clean culture
and the best commercial fertilizers apply
equally as well to the lemon as to the orange
grove, and the trees will thrive with a less
amount of fertilizer. Lemon trees should
never be pruned, except to remove dead
branches, and possibly a few of the lower
limbs that interfere with cultivation.
Lemons should never be picked for ship
ment when fully ripe, but should be gath
ered just as they are turning yellow and
placed on drying shelves in the same man
ner as .oranges, and left for several weeks
until thoroughly cured. They aro then as
sorted and graded, wrapped in manila paper,
firmly packed in boxes and are ready for
shipment.
A Poor Man, And Why.
A writer in the Planters' Advocate, who
signs himself “Wool Hat,” tells his brother
farmers why he is poor. He says: “I am
poor because I buy more#han I sell. In the
first place, I buy a part of my meat from
the Northwest; my fish comes from Port
land in the tailing of which the Mainlanders
receive a bounty from the government. My
onion sets and all my gard en seeds come
from Michigan; I sold the wool from eight
een sheep at cents per pound to an
agent of the manufacturing company at
Reading, Pa.; four months thereafter I
bought a hat from the same company pay
ing at the rate of 86 a pound for the wool.
The hide of a buck I sold for sc. per pound.
It went to Elmira, N. Y., was tanned, sent
back and I bought it at 35 cents a pound,
and it weighed more than it did when I sold
it. My axe handles come from Connecticut,
my matches from Delaware, my pen, ink
and paper from New York. Am I the only
fool in Georgia'”
Manure in Heaps.
The Southern Developer says thatmanure
whenever possible should be spread from the
wagons. The common notion that manure
wastes when spread over tho ground and
that it is more secure when left in heaps is
erroneous. The waste is much greater in
heaps, as tho slight fermentation dissipates
ammonia and makes the plant food more
easily soluble. The labor is much greater
aside from tho imj/ossibiiity of spreading as
evenly from heaps ns from a wagon. After
a manure heap has lain several weeks every
particle of the manure may be removed
from the surface, and yet spots all over the
field will show by overrank grain and weeds
where the soluble fertility has leached into
the soil. It Is far better to have this fer
tility evenly distributed and benefit the crop
uniformly than to have land too rich per
haps in spots aud too poor elsewhere.
Household.
Tomato Balad. —Peel ripe tomatoes with
a sharp knife, slice crosswise, lay in a salad
bowl and season on the table with salt, a
little sugar, pepper, oil and vinegar. Keep
the tomatoes on ice until actually served.
They cannot be too cold.
Baked Cucumbers.—Pare the cucumbers;
chop them fine with a Hjnall onion; put them
on, with very little water and stew for ton
minutes. Prepare u rich dressing as for
poultry of bread crumbs with herbs and
yelk of egg; pour off all the water from the
cueumljers: add the dressing aud ono ta
blespoonful of butter and bake in a deep
disli.
Rick Cream.—One teucupful of boiled
rice. Mush tho rice very smooth and add to
it the stiffly beaten whites of six eggs and
two heaping tablespoonfuls of white sugar;
lastly, odd three tab]u>.|>ooufnla of sweet

Broilkd Chicken.—l)o not attempt to
broil an old or full-grown fowl; take a young
chicken, split it down the back always, wipe
the inside dry after removing tho giblets,
and place It on the gridiron with the inside
down; keep it so until it begins to grow very
brown, then turn it, but the moment the
skin threatens to burn reverse it again. To
find how it is cooking insert a sharp knife
into the thickest breast, if the floeh Is pink
at all return it to the fire; when well done
and browned lay it on a platter, inside down;
butter, salt and serve.
Buttered Oranges. —Take eight eggs
and the whites of four more, with four tea

oranges, and as many lumps of sugar rubbed
ou the orange skins as will absorb the zest.
Ret it over a gentle fire in an enameled
saucepau, and when it begins to thicken stir
in a tablespoonful of butter. When it
reaches the consistency of honey pour into
a flat china dish. It is good to serve with
sponge biscuits.
Farm Notes.
Market men say that tho demand for cur
rnnts is increasing yearly. The old way of
shipping in bulk is giving place to berry
crates and baskets.
The warm days will cause the corn to
grow very rapidly, while tomatoes, Lima
beans, squashes and melons delight in the
warmest weather in order to yield well.
The net profits from the sale of small fruit
by two young ladies hi California last year,
one of whom was a consumptive when she
began, amounted to tho handsome sum of
815,000.
Wells on the farm should be thoroughly
cleaned out in the spring und fall. At this
season there will be few wells that will not
contain toads, both alive and in a state of
decomposition.
A great many weeds can be used, when
just coming up, as greens, such as poke,
lamb’s quarter and dandelion; but it is let
ter to grow mustard and kale instead, and
plow under all weeds.
Work the strawberry plant* well now and
remove all the grass and weeds between
them. If a plentiful supply of manure lie
used the plants may be allowed to throw out
a large number of runners, but between tho
rows should be kept clean.
In twenty days tho eggs of ono hen would
exceed the weight of her body. So of any
bird. Yet the whole of that mass of albu
men is drawn directly from her blood. If
stinted in food, of course, it would limit the
number as well as the size of the eggs.
Pick out your breeders, says the Farm
Journal, the pigs with long bodies, broad
backs and deep, round hams. Relect a breed
which has hair on it. A good coat of hair
counts on a hog as well as any animal. It
is a protection in summer and in winter.
In pruning trees of any kind it is better
to have one strong branch or limb than two
or three weak ones, says Popular Garden
ing. It is better to keep limbs thinned out
than to cut back and make too close heads.
Let the sun’s rays in all through the tree.
A heavy mulch between the rows of rasp
berries and blackberries will double the crop
of fruit and save time in cultivating; but
just liefore applying it go through them
with a cultivator and hoo, treating the
suckers that have sprung up as noxious
weeds.
The quince is a great feeder and needs
good cultivation. No other fruit requires
so much manure and such thorough cultiva
tion. If the trees be neglected it is likely
that there will be no fruit, hut If thero shall
It will be of small growth and unsightly ap
pearance.
The spring litter of pigs should be re
moved from the sow and turned on tho
clover. A warm moss in the morning and
at night of scaldod ground oats and mid
dlings will causa them to grow very rapidly,
as they will also secure a large share of their
food in the field.
Good butter cows will make a pound of
butter to every 14 to 18 pounds of milk.
“General purpose cows” want from 22 to 81
pounds, and some cows would require 50
pounds of milk to make a pound of butter.
Average dairies require somewhere about
35 pounds of milk to make a pound of but
ter.
If the field bo heavily covered with tall
weeds, and there lie no other crop growing
thereon, broadcast ten bushels of lime over
the weeds and plow them Under, liefore they
seed, asa green manurial crop. Allow thorn
to remain a month, then harrow in two
bushels of rye per acre, and plow the rye
under when it is three feet high, turning it
down with a chain and next spring tho land
will be excellent for corn.
Lice is the summer drawback to poultry.
Old nests, filthy doors and fowls crowded on
the roosts cause lice to breed very rapidly,
and as the vermin begin to attack the heiis
the production of eggs diminishes until very
few eggs are obtained. The final result is
that the fowls are debilitated from the at
tacks of the pests, and quickly succumb to
roup and cholera. Tho poultry house must
be kept, clean and well whitewashed, while
kerosene and carbolic acid may be used
freely on every part.
A writer in the American Rural Home
thus describes how he avoided jxitato bugs:
“In planting potatoes I dropped a handful
of unleacheil ashes upon each hill after
spatting the ground with the hoe, lwlieving
it would be disagreeable to the bugs when
they made their first appearance, which is
the best time to fight them, as the first ones
that come do not feed upon tho vines, the
slugs from the eggs being the real depre
dators. Asa result I have found and killed
five lieetles, when tieforo I numbered thou
sands upon the same ground.”

Coke is the result of tho distillation of the
coal; it contains from four to fifteen per
cent, of ashes, or more, according as it is
made from largo or line pi*s-es, and accord
ing to the amount which is contained in tho
coal from which it isproduced. It contains
also from 2 to 10 per cent, of water.
Prof. Hughes lias shown that n stranded
iron wire cable has less irlf-tndurtlon than
one of the same mass of metal formed into
a solid wire. The explanation of tills is that
tlie circular field of magnetic force around
the axi-. which exists inside the wire as well
as outside, is not as strong in tho interior of
the strand'd iron cable as in the interior of
the solid iron wire. The stranding reduces
the magnetic |s nuenbility along Him-s which
are circles descriliod around the axis, and
hence reduces the self-conduction.
The Lewis tlre-extlnetor, which has been
adopted by the Marauis of (Salisbury at
Hatfield, and is also to be used by the Bir
mingham Fire Brigade, is about the size of
a policeman’* truncheon. At the upper end
is a wire loop by which it is hung from a
nail or staple. A sudden pull (of ntxmt ten
pounds) detaches the ext Inetor from the cap,
opens tnc tube and scatters the contents on
the blazing tire. It contains n liquid which
