FOR FiRM A>D GARDES,
ABOtrr BUTTER-MAKING.
Mrs. Archard, according to the
Farmers’ Review, says about butter,
making: Put the milk nbont three
inchos deep in crocks that have been
well nibbed in scalding water and
then cooled. The milk should stand
until it gets thick at the bottom of the
crocks. Butter that tasjes old may be
put into fresh buttermilk and churned
a few minutes; then ndd some salt to
it and you will find it tastes as sweet
as over.
SUNSHINE FOR FARM STOCK.
In all the discussions about covered
barnyards loo littlo account is made of
tho beautiful sunshine. This for
farm 6(ock, squally as tor mankind, is
of the greatest importance. Every
other requisite for hcalih may be
present, but if the light of the sun be
withdrawn disease will bo the certain
result. Men i.avc found that ns
forests aro cleared away health im¬
proves, until much moro than the
threescore years and ten is oflen at¬
tained by man. It is questionable
whether the flesh or inilk of animals
is as healthful where they are kept in
close confinement, and especially If
sunlight bo excluded. Whatever
affects animal health is first shown in
ils influence on secretions, of which,
in a milk-bearing animal, milk is one
of the moat important. — [Boston Cul¬
tivator.
PROFIT IN SI1F.RW.
Tho sheep as a prominent factor in
the possession of tho 20-acro farmer
is coming to the front. Thrco times
a year docs that useful animal bring
in cash for liis owner. Of course,
without an alfalfa patch sliccp aro not
profitable In small numbers. With a
littlo outsido pasturage 40 or 50 sheep
caw ho kept on every 20-«cro farm
where four or five acres of alfalfa are
planted. Fifty sheep mean all the way
from $1 to $200 clear profit at the end
of the year aud with tittle extra work.
Tho wool cut from alfalfa-fed sheep
brings five cents per pound more than
the ordinary valley wool. Tho alfalfa-
raised lambs during three or four
periods of 12 months command $1 and
$5 per head for use in San Francisco.
There is practically no limit to the de¬
mand. The sheep men, who easily
see the immense profit iu alfalfa-
raised sheep, will rent out their choic¬
est 6hcep for one-half tho increase and
one-half the wool. Probably with a
first-class alfalfa field better terms enn
be gotten. Sheep as a semi-annual
cash payment is what tho 20-acro
farmer needs.—[Merced (Cal.) Star.
SALTING MEAT.
Never salt meat until the hogs have
hung long enough for the meat to be¬
come cutircly cold all tho way
through. For barrelled pork the
brine should be as salt as it cau be
made—so strong that there will always
be salt undistolvcd in the barrel. Cut
into pieces of convenient size and
pack them iu rings on their edges.
Fill all interstices and cover each layer
of meat with salt. Then pour in all
the strong brine the barrel will hold,
and keep it tilled. For side bacon tho
usual plan is first to rub each piece
with salt and then pack skin side down
on a platform covered will) salt. As
soon as one layer ia down cover it with
salt and put another on it and so pro¬
ceed, piling it up ns high as conven¬
ient. Overhaul, rub and repack it
from three to four limes, until it is
well salted through.
Tito time it must remain will de-
pend on the thickness of the moat end
the temperature of the packing place
In extremely cold weather a third
longer time may l,e required.
There is no danger getting pickled
pork or heavy fat sides too salt. For
the hams a pickle should be made
just strong enough lo barely float an
egg. Into tliia stir enough brown sugar
or molasses to give it a slightly sweet
taste. If the weather is moderate
hams that weigh from eight to twelve
pounds may be taken ont for smoking
in from dnee to four weeks. In hard
freezing weather and for large bams
a longer time will be required, vary-
ing from four to seveu weeks.—

wnv eggs spoil.
Evg9 spoil of ineffectual attempt to
hatch. Whenever a fertilized egg is
raised to a temperature of !)2 degrees
the hatching process begin, and when
the temperature fall, much lie ow this
point the process censes. These coil-
ditions are found in the warm days
and cool nights of summer.
During the long. Hot days the hatch.
ing process is at work; during the
short cool night it ceases. After three
or four alterations of (liis kind the
embryo cluck dies and the rotting
process begins. Now, it is evident
that if the eggs were not fertilized the
hatching would ,not begin, neither
would the rotting, and hence there
would be an a' seiice of rotten
eggs-
Tiie remedy, llierofoie, r» to pre¬
vent fertilization of the.eggs aud this
can be secured by the destruction of
roosters. Every rooster not intended
especially for breeding alien'd be
killed or sold to the huckster as soon
us big enough to eat.
Not over one good rooster should bo
feepf or auy farm, aud that one cooped
and mated with not to exceed ten
hem, and the eggi from thc<e hen*
should bo kept especially for eggs for
ninrkot or table use, mid no rooster
should bo allowed among them. On
the ordinary farms about ouo-tenth of
the fowls aro roosters, which is about
nine times as many us there can be any
possible use for.
Unfertilized eggs are much sweeter
and better for table use, and will keep
from two to four times as long as
fertilized one*. Hons not kept with
roosters will lay longer and set less
than others. — [Poultry Chum.
ENSILAGE NOT SAFE FOR HORSES.
)u reply to question forwarded to
me by you, regarding grounds for my
conclusion that ensilage is not safe
feed for horses and mules, A. J. Coe
writes:
In February, 1881, I had a quantity
of cured cornstalks from which horses
and mules iu a yard had been fed for
two months. Tho fodder was well
cured and the animals were thrifty.
But iu feeding largo stalks whole
there was necessarily waste. In my
absence my foremau undertook to
save bay by feeding tho corn fodder
to sit mules and a horse iu tho sta¬
bles—some of it was cut in the ensi¬
lage cutter, set to cut 1.2 inch, and
was substituted for hay in the man¬
gers. After a day or two tho animals
were ailing, the symptoms being ina¬
bility to swallow, and great thirst. In
about a week from tho first feeding
tho seven were dead. Thinking it
might be some epidemic, ho notified
the State Commissioners of Diseases
of Domestic Animals.
They came with their veterinarian,
snd held a post mortem. They found
somo inflammation in stomach aud
intestines, but could find no evidence
of epidemic or poison; thought tho
food might be the cause, but reached
no positive conclusion. In the fall of
that year, having good ensilage, upon
which the cattle were thriving, l fed
some to a brood mare and weanling
colt, giving them all they would eat.
A few days afterward both died, ex¬
hibiting precisely the same syinp'ous
as had the mules and horse; other
horses and mules, at the tame stable,
fed no ensilage, remaining perfectly
healthy. Putting together these two
sequences ] judged them to be conse¬
quences; hence concluded that cut
cornstalks were not a safe fodder for
horses aud mules. — [Country Gentle¬

A Watch for Every Day in the Year.
Few people, however, carried their
appreciation of watches us far as
Count Bruhl appears to have done,
who is said to have had u different
habit, with its appendages of watch,
slick and snuff-box, for every day jn
the year; still, tho French were not
far behind as time-servers, as it was
tlio fashion in France about 1765 to
wear two watches, one ou the right
and another on the left side. This
stupid foppishness was soon adopted
in England, and it is told of the Eml
of Bridgewater that on one occasion,
. having been .robbed of one watch by
a footpad the other was also demand¬

HOOD'S PILLS Curo Biliousness
Beauty often depends on
plumpness; so does comfort;
so does health. If you get
thin, there is something
wrong, though you may feel
no sign of it.
Thinness itself is a sign;
sometimes the first sign;
sometimes not.
The way to get back
plumpness is by careful
living, which sometimes in¬
cludes the use of Scott’s
Emulsion of cod-liver oil.
Let us send you—free—a

But the eyes of the great preachei
