I'Altai AM) HOUSEHOLD. Vohksi Lea'. k.v —Forest leave* am invaluable to every gnrdviier aim honicultu;ist. They act not only as a mulch for glowing plants lint are capital for incorporation in me nut nure heap. If ftecotn posed hy them selves, they hum a natural n.oul-i, admirably adapted for the mocassin I culture of flowering plants in pot*. All our florists are glad to get woo I mould. The question lias been asked us to their mammal value. Tire an swer has never been fully satisfac tory. Owing to their bulk, they am not as valuable, in proportion to time occupied in gathering, as it ihe same time bad I ta n speut in editing muck. But, for the successful propagation of plants in green-houses, decomposed leaves are always worth the trouble to seem e Tim Tukkip Fly.— Those who do much in growing the turnip, expeii en -e more or less inconvenience from tlie rtv upon the young plants. An Knghsft farmer snys: “ Fei the last fifteen years, on sowing turnips, 1 provide, ready slaked, one ton of lime per acre. As soon as the plants appear the lime is spread from a cart over the voting plants in the low*. In hot seasoi s the planls have bad rough usage from the tonnen tors, biit sufficient plants escape. 1 never missed a crop, nor have 1 had to sow a second time. The lime must he put on dry, and on a warm or hot and dry day, for if any dew or moisture he upon the plants they will h« destroyed. The lime must le ready to put on the moment tiie mischief begins, for in twenty-four hours of a hot season the lly can ruin any crop ; it is no use then going for the lime.” Cornfield Peas. —Tbc Macon Telegraph says : It is a great waste to thresh out peas ill tile fielil anil throw away the bull. They should be gatheted blight and sound, and catefuLy boused fioni the weather. No ait rle of food is mote nutrition* for liOises and mules; ami fed ill the hull, tl ov serve tin* dottb'e pur pose of eraiii and long foiage. Care should be taken, however, to moisten them well before feeding, to avoid choking the amnia s. It is curious that they never choke after the first mouthful, which is owing to the in t rented action of the salivary glands. The wri-r has worked his mules for ! u !•: .* . mi iis consecutively on pe.is li us piepare l, without a grain if corn, ami kept them fa and in tim finest condition dm mg the w hole pe tod. It is a matte: worth consid wring. Suggestion About Weak Eves.— Avoid using them when the use he gins to jjfi\e pain; let them have list Hat he weak eyes in tepid wa ter. Don’t use weak eyes hy any artificial light. It the eyes are mat ted together after sleep, the most instantaneous and agreeable solvent in nature is the application of the saliva with the finger, before opening the eye. Never pick it ofi with the finger nail, but wash it off with the hall of the fingers in quite warm water. In building a chimney, put a quan tity of salt into the mortar wyh which the intercourses of brick are to he laid, lhe effect will he that there never will he any aecunmla tions of soot in that chitnnev. The philosophy is thus stated • The salt in the portion of mortar which is ex posed, absorbs moisture from the at mosphere every damp day. The soot thus becoming damp, falls down into the fire place. This appeals to he an English discovery. It is used with success ill Canada. To PioKt.E Onions.—Peel and boil them in milk and water ten minutes. To a gallon of vinegar put half an ounce of cinnamon and mace, one founli of an ounce of cloves, a small teacup of salt, and half an ounce of alum. Heat the vinegar, together with the spices, scalding hot, and turn it on the onions, which should previously have the water and milk drained from them. Covet them tight till cold. How TO Keep Water Cool Water can be kept cool for dririkinc; in warm weather by the following method : (Jet fresh water, let it bo kept in an ungbued earthenware pitcher, wrapt around with two or throe folds of coarse cotton cloth kept cons atitly wet. The tlieorv of cooling water in this manner is the absorption of beat from it btr the evapora inn of the moisture in the cotton cloth- expansion produces cold, compression beat. A Ci’KK fob Hydrophobia.—A writer semis to a Providence paper the following prescription for hydro phobia, which cannot do harm : Eat the green shoots of asparagus raw ; sl«e > and perapiration will be in duced. ami the disease can thus be cured in tuiy stage of canine madness A man in Athens, tJrrece, was cured by this remedy aftet the paroxysm bad commenced. Si’gar Piss.—One cup of brown sugar, add to it half a cup of water; boil until thick ; when cold add two eggs, beaten with a teaspoonful of flo.ii ; then a piece of butter the size ot an egg, mi Ited, and put in the last ; season lo taste.
