How to Move. Nothing can be mace more difficult, more perplexing and heart-breaking than moving, if only certain conditions are ob served. It makes no difference how early you begin to tear up the old house: how thoroughly you clean the new one; how . well you pack—your moving will still be a - torture and terror, unless you work more steadily with your brams than with your bands. Industry and energy are of value, but system and a bottle of marking ink make the easy flitting. The woman, then, who wishes to leave one house and estab lish herself in a new one with as little sense of upheaval and ruinous volcanic action as possible, is wise, if, in the first place, she has her new house thoroughly cleaned, and, not trusting to the owner or agent’s assurance that it is in ‘ 'perfect order,” has the kitchen range, the water and gas pipes examined, so that the work men msy not descend on her, and all necessary repairs be started on the first wash day in her new home. The next step is to have her carpets taken up, cleaned and put down in the empty house—excepting, of course, that for the hall and stairs. The shades can be fitted at the same time. In the old house gather up all the ornaments, hnc-a-brac and pack them by themselves in marked boxes, so that they need not be unpacked when they would be in the way. Pack the books in order Keep the shelves separate and do not let the parlor books get mixed with the children’s and those from the spare room. Mark these and have boxes put by themselves. Pack up all the superfluous china, bedding, table covers and other things. Mark every bag, bundle and box, and have them all pul together. a Tour parlor carpet is now up, youjr books packed, your pictures taken do so liave your furniture put into bagging 01 protected in any way you think best, and have it put in one corner by itself, and, if, necessary, mark the articles ‘‘parlor.’' Have everything possible brought into the parlor and arranged in order of moving the rule for which will be given later; and so on, packing away everything not abso lutely necessary for present use, and be as ready as you can when moving-day comes. The order for moving is simple. Have each floor moved by Itself, 'i he carman will at once oppose you, and declare he eannot pack in his wagon upon this plan, and if yon insist upon it you will have a great many loads. But it is only necessary to watch the carman to see what his little idiosyncrasies are. He may not make a large load, but in every one he is bound to get a specimen from each floor. He leaves the (poking glass in the second story, and his assistant rushes up into the third stoiy and jerks one from the bureau there, and (hen in the new house he puts both in the sitting room. His idiosyncrasy is simple enough; he never takes two articles from the same floor if he can help it, and he never puts anything in its natural and obvious place, If you do noi mark the barrel holding pots and pans he will certainly carry it to the third story, and he will anyhow, but it it is marked you may yourself possibly remember what was in the bairel and stop him. And a.l this marking is for your own benefit. It is useless to delude yourself into t hinking, for you will not. You Will forget where the baby’s blankets are, the spoons and the tablecloth; the comb and brush aud the toilet soap will have buried themselves under an undiscovered deposit, and before you are unpacked you will, if you don’t mark every bundle, box, and bag. as your "one hope, wish you were drowning, eo that as the events of your past life flash by you, you will remember where so me one thing you need at once was put. Tlie Squatter’s Spirit. AGBICULTUBEi In a well-planned system of farming the subject of crop rotations should be cgrefuiiy considered, as one of the es sential elements of success in its highest and best sense. Early writers on agri culture, even from tbe times of the Greeks and Romans, have quite uni formly urged the advantages of a suc cession of crops from the teachings of experience. That these practical rules of alternating orops of different habits and modes of growth are based on cor rect, bat not folly explained principles, has been shown by direct experiment. At Rothamsted, England, Drs. Lawes and Gilbert obtained nearly as mnch wheat in eight crops, attended with eighty stops of beans, as in sixteen crops of wisest grown consecutively without manure ih another field; and also nearly as mnch meat as in eight crops alter nated with bare fallow. The spirit of the renowned old squatter still lingers in tbe land. “Which road shall 1 take here?” asked a traveler uf a man who sat on tbe steps of ft C-fQfr q ~£Oi‘(l_ _ . “Whichone do 7011 want?" “I intended to ask which one should 1 take to lead me to the river.” “Take your choice.” “Which one leads to the river?” “What river?” “Why, the Arkansaw.” “You want to know which road leads there?" “Yes, sir.” “How long have you been in this coun try?” “That makes no difference my friend. I want to know something of the geogra phy of this community.” “No it makes no difference how long you’ve been here, but there ain’t a geog raphy in this neighborhood. But there was a lot of ’em in the school house when it burned.” “How far is it to Ihe river, any way?” “Well, anyway it’s about two hundred miles.” “Oh, how far is it?” “You can make it as far as you please. ” “I mean how near is it?” “That will sorter do. I dunno.” “Is this a temperance community?” 1 ‘Sorter.” “How long has it been since you had a drink?” “It aint been mere than a month, but it seems like a couple of yeare,” “What would you give for a drink?’ “A common sized mule. ” “I have some very fine stuff here in a bottle; have some.” The native grasped the bottle eagerly and drank. “What is it you want to know?” “The road to the river.” The native took another drink and said: “The river is right over yonder, but the ferryman will charge you like thunder if you aint got no whisky. Good day.’’ When the traveler arrived at the ferry he found his friend of the store standing in the boat waiting for him. “Halloa, here we are again. What will you take to row me across? ” “How muck have you got?” “I mean what is your price?” “Three drinks and the cork.” “What do you want with the cork?” “Why, to put it in the churn to make the milk taste natural.” Root- grafting is sometimes resorted to where extensive increase is an object, or where stem-grafting or other means of propagation are not available. In snch a case the scion is grafted directly on to a portion of the root of some ap propriate stock, both graft aud stock being usually very small. The grafted root is then potted so as to cover the point of j auction with the soil, and is plunged in the bed of the propagating bouse, where it is slightly stimulated by the gentle bottom heat. Dahlias and peonies may be grafted by inserting young shoots into the neck of one of the fleshy roots of each kind respec tively, ihe best method of doing so be- to cut a triangular section near the end of the root, just large enongh Unit the yonng shoot when slightly ~ away on two sides to give it a similar form. Hints About Butteb.—Butter made in May and June can be kept sweet and good until the ensuing fall and winter, if one has a ecol place for storage; oth erwise it is somewhat difficult. Roll butter may be packed in tight casks or tubs,' and covered with strong brine. This will exclude the air and keep the batter sweet in a cool room or cellar. Orange county dairymen use the fol lowing mixture in preparing butter which is to be kept for some time: To ten ounces of fine salt, add two ounces of brown sugar. The different ingredi ents are mixed together, and an onnee of this mixture is well worked into eveiy pound of this butter. Willard, in Ins ••Butter Book,” says that butter so treated if closely packed and stored in a cool place, will keep sound for several yeais.

It is always green and fresh when other grasses are brown aud dry, and many weeds, Buch as the daisy, will not grow in the same field with it. in stead of being exhaustive it enriches the soil, it shades the ground in sum mer, and, if allowed a iew weeks rest from cropping in the fall, will mulch it in winter. It is able to smother down quack grass, and a crop of orchard grass, once obtained, will last for several years without reseeding. Light soils are not favorable to oats, and yet it is the light soils which are the early ones. Oats require a moder ately low temperature of at least two months to perfect its root organization.

Certain persons think that this can he done only over hickory coals, or on a plank. I formerly thought so, too. but I have got over this fastidiousness, after trial upon trial, fortified by the opinions of those who have dined with us many times. On two occasions we had fivt- ponnd shad cooked, one by wood coals on a plunk, and the other over anthra cite coals, in a common range, and no person' present was able to tell the differ ence. It is all nonsense to go to the trouble to provide hickory coals and plank for a shad or whitefish, when the anthracite coals and a common gridiron will answer just as -well One thing should be borne in mind, that no fish should be cooked until it-is ready to be eaten. Let fish stand fifteen minutes to half an hour after being cooked, and it is literally not fit to • eat, the flavor being gone. Faint fob Floors.—An economical paint for floors is made by soaking 2} ounces of good, clear joiner's glne over night in cold water. It is dissolved and then added (stirring constantly) to thickish milk of lime, heated to the pound of quicklime. Into the boiling lime is poured (the stirring st 11 contin ued) as much linseed oil as becomes uni ted with the lime, and when the oil no bojing point and prepared irum one lon ger mixes there is no more poured in. If there happens to be too much oil added, it must be combined by the addition of some fresh lime paste. For the quanti ty above indicated about half a pound of oil is required. After this white, thickish foundation paint has cooled, a color is added which is not affected by lime, and in case of need the paint is diluted by water. For yellowish-brown or brownish-red shades about a fourth part of the entire bulk is added of a biown solution obtained by boiling shellac and borax with water. This mixture is specially adapted lor painting floors, where there is a rug in the centre. For a floor which ib in constant use, the most durable paint is that composed of linseed oil varnish, which penetrates into tne wood and makes it waier-resist- ing, its properties being thus of a nature to compensate for its lusher cost. Cheese Fritters.—Take three ounces or three tablespoonfols of flour, one ounce of butter, one gill of tepid water (two parts of cold and one of boiling), a tittle pepper and salt, and one egg, three tablespoonfuls of grated cheese. For this the old pieces oi cheese may be used. First place in the bowl tbe flour, then the pepper and salt; melt the butter and pour it upon the flour. Next add the water, drop in the yolk oi an egg, and then stir in the cheese. Beat the white of the egg to a stiff froth, and when light nnx with the other in gredients.

Hints about Coquettes.—Give the Devil his due and the Coquette her dude—Coquettes are like cats; they love petting. This accounts for sparks in the dark—Always make a friend of a Coquette before you fall in love with her.

Indeed, this is her first trick—After all, there is one mep thing about a Coquette. She and lightning never strike twice in the same place. There is no need of it —All flesh is grass, but a Coquette doesn’t object to being called a daisy. “Little thanks are due to him who only gives away what is ot no use to wm- stlf.” The thanks of invalids the world over are being showered on the inventor ot Kidney-Wort, for it is giving health to all.

Do you see that box of spices? They look very nice, don’t they. Just smell ’em. They smell stroag, don't they ? Now taste ’em; they taste good, too, as spices go. Well, young man, what do you think of ’em ?” “From all appearances I should say that they were a fair lot of spices.” “That is just where your judgment falls abort. They are not spices at all.” “What are they, then"?” “Just ground cocoanut shell, flavored with spice extracts. The difference in color comes from burning the shells. Why doT keep ’em ? Because people want ’em. Of course, they are a lraud from beginning to end. But they are cheap, and people want cheap spices, just as they want every thing else cheap.'

They are sold as genuine spices, but any grocer with a particle ol sense kuows from the prices that they cannot be the renl article.

Where quick ness of motion is accompanied by care less roughness and irregularity the ef fect is txactly the opposite. Stow milk ers always gradually dry up a cow, and for the reason that if the milk be not drawn about as fast as it is given down it wui subsequently be withheld, and that withheld is, as a matter of course, what is known as the strippings. It may be said that a cow must moke 200 pounds of butter during her milking season to afford any adequate profit. This may be considered as a meagre quantity when compared to tests of some cows whose yields are reported at 600 to 800 pounds per year, but 200 pounds is, nevertheless, considerably above the average of ail the butter cows in the country, 140 to 150 coming much ncartg that general average. When a potato is exposed to the light m a eellar the eyes nearly all start a good, healthy, green sprout, but if in a pile, or in darkness, on the stron gest eyes grow long, white, worthless sprouts. Hence, seed potatoes, should be spread thinly in the light. The sprouts should not be broken off when cutting the seed for planting. Before filling up vacant places in the orchard with young trees, it is best to tbink whether the full grown trees now standing will not with good manur ing bring more fruit than a larger num ber would. Most of our orchards were planted too closely, and the tree roots interlace so as to 10b each other of what fertility each should have. Ir seeds are to be kept over a year they should he placed in a cool place and exposed to Light and air. Keeping them in the dark weakens vitality, per haps irom the tendency to grow which darknees excites,but unaccompanied by moisture enough to put forth leaf and root. The Irish harvest for 1882 is 006,060 less than that of 1881. The tail lire of the potato crop is the chief cause of the deficiency. A year ago large quantities of Irish potatoes were shipped to this country. Now many thousand people are suffering irom lack of necessary food. The manure from nnhonsed stock ex posed to cold and wet is less valuable ihan from animals carefully stabled, with the same feed. Not only is much of the excrement wasted by rains, bnt is in itseli poorer, the extra lood required to keep unsheltered stock warm biting absolutely wasted. The Scotch, always a thrifty race,are investing largely in American cattle ranches. During 1882 tenlarge ranches for herding cattle were faonght by Scotchmen. The profit is so much greater than from any use the money can be pnt to at home, that investments of this kind are sure to increase. Kalieylic acid, with some of its appli cations, formed the subject of a paper read before the French Academy of Sciences, by M. Seblumberger, Among other things, it is stated that the acid is given in certain places to animals in daily doses as a preventive against con tagious diseases. To preserve beer it is introduced twice, the first being suf ficient only to act upon the lactic fer mentation but not on that of the yeast, and the second in quantity sufficient to arrest the alcoholic fermentation before it degenerates into the acetio stage. The two doses together do not amount to more than 0.05 grain per litre of the beer. It is estimated by the author that 5,000,000 hectolitres of wine was sali- cyhcized in France last year.

The Bad and Worthless are never mutated or counterfeited. This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon as it had been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best and most valuable family medicine on earth, many Imitations sprang up and began to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. B., and in every way trying to in duce suffering invalids to nse their staff instead, expecting to make money on the credit and good name of IL B. Many others started nostrums pnt np in similar style to H. B., with variously devised names in which the word “Hop, 1 “Hops” were used in a way to induce people to believe they were the same as Hop Bitters. All snch pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, anil especially those with the word “ Hop ’ or “ Hops” in their name or in any way connected with them or their name, are imitations or counterfeits. Beware of them. Tench none of them. Use nothing but genuine Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of green Hop on the white label. Trust nothing else. Druggists and dealers are warned against dealing in imitations or counterfeits. <*<tyne’a Automatic Engli For dyspepsia, iri ngestion, depression of spirits and general deuility, in their va rious forms; also m a preventive ominst fever and ague and other inter, sitient fevers, the “Ferro-Phosphorated ETixir of Cahsaya,” made by Caswell.
