FARM AND GARDEN.
\ Government Receipt.
Here is the receipt for harness dressing
adopted by the l nited States Govern
ment: One gallon neat's foot oil, two
pounds bay-berry tallow, two pounds
beeswax. Put the above in a pan over
a moderate tire. When thoroughly dis
solved, add two quarts of castor oil;
then while on the lire stir in one ounce
of lampblack. Mix well, and strain
through a tine cloth to remove sediment;
let it cool, and keep it in tin cans.
Foot Rot in Cattle.
There are many forms of foot rot in
cattle, but in neatly aM cases the mineral
acids are at least beneficial when used
as a dressing for the sores. In simple
foot rot, sulphuric acid diluted with
three or lour parts of water, has long
been recommended by veterinarians for
dressing the raw places or sores on the
feet. We should think that pure
muriatic acid would be a ratlier severe
remedy, although it may be efficacious.
We should prefer to dilute it with
water, as our veterinarians advise.
Carbolic acid is also an excellent remedy
for contagious loot rot as well as the
metre simple and common form of the
disease. —New York Sun.

Take Care of the Carriage.
The safest way to guard against
blisters oil panels and the cracking of
the varnish on carria.es is to be careful
about how the vehicle is subjected to
either rain or heat If caught in a
shower, have a chamois skin with you;
it will not take very long to dry the
surface oil', and then you are sure you are
running no risks. If compelled to stand
any length of time in the sun, turn the
carriage around once in a while, so as to
allow the sides to cool alternately.
Never allow the carriage tc stand in the
coach-house near a window, unless you
have a cover for the exposed parts or
curtains on the windows, and above all
do not cool your carriage off too sud
den y while it is heated by dashing
water over it in that condition; let it
cool off gradually by standing in a shady
place, or at least until you can bear your
hand on it. without almost burning it.
The reason i 3 that the varnish and paint
are softened up so that the sudden re
action, will be very likely to cause them
to crack, if not to Hake off altogether.
Water should never be allowed to dry on
a carriage, either by the action of the sun
or atmosphere, but should be dried off
with a chamois. —Neto York World.
Raising Winter T.ambs.
It is a profitable business, but like any
Jther, success is the reward of close at
tention. Lambs last winter sold for
in January, and then along down to si>
the last of April. The extra feed and
care for the ewes is nearly paid for in
their superior condition for mutton in
early spring, when mutton is scarce. A
shepherd can care for a hirsel of 150
ewes, and have an easy time doing it. If
this is not better than selling lambs in
the fall at six months of age for sl3, the
price here now, I would like to be cor
rected. 2. The ewes are shorn soon
after coming into winter quarters, else,
owing to the temperature (50 degrees)
kept uj) for best results with lambs, the
ewes would shed their wool before
spring. A visit to a winter-lamb raiser
last season, who had neglected shearing,
revealed a sorry, ragged looking flock of
ewes. It may be here remarked that
with properly constructed quarters no
artificial heat is necessary. The sheep
generate too much heat, and the temper
ature is kept even by air shafts. 3. I
have assurance that a dealer in New York
city, who is regarded here as trust
worthy, will advertise h : s business in the
Triune, weekly edition, in due time.
He can give all fnformation as to prices,
how to prepare for market, and when
and how to ship. Tribune.
Feeding on the Ground,
It is a waste of feed of any kind to
/ive to stock upon the ground, and
especially any kind of grain. There is
always more or less loss that with good
management could very readily have
been avoided, and that would in a very
short time pay for the expense of provid
ing suitable places lor feeding. Even
the hogs ought to have a tight floor
upon which tnqir torn can be led, rather
than upon the ground. lo ugh feed
given to cattle, sheep or horses, if fed
upon the ground, is certain to have more
or less of it trampled down and left.
Tight floors, upon which the grain fed
to hogs can be thrown, and feeding
troughs or boxes to feed grain to the
other kinds of stock, with racks or
mangers for all kinds of feed, will pre
vent such loss. If all the stock are kept
the farm that the feed raised will
in a good, thrifty condition, it will
to feed so as to avoid waste as much
aspossib e. And where a considerable
number of stock are kept, it will make a
difference in the amount of feed well
worth saving.
it is well to provide these early in the
fall. More or less stock will require to
be fed at almost any time now, and the
arrangements for feeding should be
made as soon as possible. Take a little
time and plan to arrange conveniently.
It will often make a considerable dif
ference in the time required to properly
feed and care for the stock, how the ar
rangements for feeding are made. A
due regard to the making and handling
of the manure should also be considered.
The making, saving and applying of all
the manure possible should always be
made an item, and in planning the feed
>ug sirrangements this should always be
considered. The feeding arrangements
need not be expensive; they should,
however, be convenient, strong and
tight, so as to save time and feed.—
Prairie Farmer.
Shipping Fruit to Marker.
There are three principal ways afor
sending fruit to market, requiring cor
respondent treatment and packing.
First, by spring wagons to neighboring
towns or cities. Baskets are the best
and cheapest packages; and now’ that
they are made so cheaply by machinery,
't is hardly necessary to require of pur
chasers the return of the baskets. They
are commonly of some use to the con
sumers, who thus obtain them at the
*°w price by the thousand at which the
shippers buy them. If returned, they
are apt to be more or less soiled, and pur
chasers prefer new and clean packages,
secondly, shipping by express N arly
the same rules apply; and for all soft or
perishable fruit, as peaches, cherries,
strawberries, raspberries and grapes,
baskets only should be employed—they
will naturally be lifted with the large
handle by the railway men and not
tumbled on their sides like boxes.
Square or cubical boxes will be sure to
be pitched in upside down, in spite of
any “this sido up” with which they are
distinctly marked.
Hard fruit, like winter apples, or like
autumn or winter pears which are put up
a week or more before they soften, may
l>£ packed in kegs, half-barrels, and
barrels by the mode generally under
stood by fruit men; and if the freight
trains are known to run directly to their
destination or to make direct connec
tions, these barrels and half-barrels may
be sent in the third method, as freight,
much, more cheaply than by express.
The importance of thus packing and
sending in kegs and barrels hard fruit
only, should be well understood by men
who put them up. A single instance
will explain this importance. New
hands were employed to pack Bartlett
pears in hal'-barrels, a week in advance
of the softening of the fruit. Care was
taken not to admit any bad specimens;
but among others a very tine yellow pear
was so attractive that “just this single
ripe one” was included. The usual
pressure of about one inch was given,
and the contents were pronounced safe
and solid. But the jarring in transit
caused the surrounding hard pears to
indent the ripe one; this produced
rattling, aud rattling made larger and
increasing dents; then the rest of the
pears began to rattle, and by the time
the package reached the market the
whole contents were bruised, defaced
and spoiled.
Shippers of fruit may be divided into
two classes—those who succeed, and
those who fail. The former, by good
cultivation, careful picking and honest
assorting, place none but the best, fruit
in market, with their names on every
package. In a few years their brand
becomes well known to consumers, ■ who
are willing to pay well, because they
know they are receiving their money’s
worth. The other class raise poor fruit,
put the worst in the centre of the pack
age, get rid of it at slow sale as they
can, and fail to sell even at a low price
in future when they become known, for
both wholesale dealers and consumers
will try to avoid them. Country Gentle
man.
Farm and Garden Notes.
The surplus and inferior grapes make
capital vinegar.
Clean culture destroys many hiding
places of injurious insects.
Shade sheds should be provided in
treeless pastures for the cattle.
A tendril is an abortive fruit bunch—
a bunch of fruit a productive tendril.
Every leaf has a bud at the base, and
either a branch or a tendril opposite it.
Clean out the droppings from a
poultry-house frequently. It is a neces
sary course to adopt to get rid of lice.
Some mea are naturally good milkers.
They have a Arm yet gentle hand and
a way of winning the cow’s confidence.
I.ook for certain forms of the hot or
breeze-flies this month; the adults of
some species are now ready to deoosit
eggs.
Take heed how cattle are driven to
and from pasture. Many fine milch
cows are ruined by hurry and excite
ment.
If there is plenty ef green food at the
disposal of poultry it will not be neces
sary to get them meat at this season of
the year.
Pick up and destroy fallen fruit under
plum, apple and peach trees, and by so
doing de>troy hosts of curculio and
codling-moth larvae.
Beets are said by a New York dairy
man, when fed at the rate of two bushels
daily to the cows, to be a better milk
producer than ensilage.
A successful grower of trees claims
never to fail to dispose of the black knot
finally, if it is cut off in an early stage
and turpentine applied.
Cut-worms are killed by digging them
from their hiding-places; also by fall -
plowing, which exposes them to the
action of frost and to the attack of
birds.
Wood-peckers are great enemies of the
borers; they never make a mistake about
the place in which to dig. Pity men do
not allow them the freedom of the
orchards.
The fowls and chicks should be fed
together. Feeding coops -for the young
stock that are light and easily cleaned
out are indispensable articles about the
poultry yard.
Butter contracts during cold weather,
forcing the brine to the surface, and the
water, evaporating, lea.es the salt that
was in the brine in flakes on the out
side of the butter.
Don’t go into the poultry business
from sudden fancy or impulse, but con
sider well what you propose to do, and
plan paiticularly how you are go’ug to
do it before you begin.
Dissolve a pound of alum in three
quarts of water and put it in your white
wash; it will not only improve the white
wash, but it will kill vermin * in the
poultry house when the whitewash shall
be applied.
Don’t try to raise turkeys with chicken
hens unless you wish more trouble than
the young ones are w’orth. Let their
natural mother do the sitting, an'd keep
her cooped up two weeks after the
hatching.
Borers are cut from the bark with a
knife, x>r Killed in their holes with a
sharpened wire. Better still, wash the
tree with a strong solution of soap in
June or July, and kill the eggs before
any damage is done.
Miss Vaccine Yints Sannders.
A happy father out on a Massachusetts
street, says the Buffalo (N. Y.) Courier ,
had his first child, a girl three months
old, vaccinated a short time ago. “By
George, isn’t that great!” he exclaimed,
as he saw the doctor at work “By
Jove, why I guess I’ll call her by that
name! Vaccine! Why, that is a girl’s
name, ain’t it? Vaccine \ irus Saunders!
Capital! People will think we arc de
scended from some old Boman family.
Dear little \accine!” The mother
strongly objected to this appellation for
her first born. She wanted it named
Imogene, but the father was determined,
and Vaccine Virus Saunders will go
through life. Her diminutive will prob
ably be “Vacksy.”
HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
A Handsome Lambrequin.
A very handsome window lambrequin
is of plush; cut a piece the required
depth and width of a window. At some
listance from each other make a deep
perpendicular slash, and draw the por
tion between tho slashes— which should
be a little shorter than the euds—from
the left end and lift high at the right
edge by folding in it three upturning
plaits, tacking securely. Fasten a bow
of ribbon over the plaits, and finish the
edge of lambrequin with plush balls.
On the end pieces embroider a spray of
flowers. Line with silesia, satteen or
canton flannel.
Co-Oj>erative Pickling.
The ladies in our neighborhood have
been trying a little co-operative pick
ling, says a correspondent of the Prairie
Farmer. We find that in making all
kinds of chopped pickles, it is a very
great saving of time and labor to use a
sausage cutter to prepare the vegetables.
As a good part of the work consists in
cleaning the cutter, we met and cut or
ground our cabbage, tomatoes, onions
and peppers. It was all done in a very
short time. We took the chopped vege
tables home in paiis. Mrs. Howe, the
lady at whose house the work was done,
gave me this recipe for making them up:
One peck and a half of green tomatoes,
three small heads of cabbage, six large
onions, six ripe peppers, and six green
peppers; chop ail very finely and cover
ill with salt for twenty-four hours, then
drain the juice off thoroughly; cover with
two quarts of strong vinegar; add one
and a half pounds of sugar; scald all one
hour, then add three heads of finely
chopped celery and one [tint of grated
horse radish root; boil all tifteen min
utes, then add one tablespoonful of
cloves, two tablespoonfuls each of white
mustard-seed, allspice, ginger, and one
tabiespoonful of mustard. These spices
ire all to be ground. Cover closely. It
s tit for use in a month.
The Care of Lamps
People who live in houses lighted by
gas escape much that is disagreeable in
'.he care of lamps—or their lack of care.
But the kerosene lamp is the almost
universal illuminator.
The best light is obtained from a lamp
where the surface of the oil is at all
times at the same distance from the burn
ing part of the wick. Where the re-er
voir containing the oil is directly under
the burner, as in most common lamps,
the blaze burns less and less brightly as
the oil decreases and the wick grows
more tardy in supplying it. We need
an improvement in hand lamps on this
account.
The wick serves principally to elevate
the oil, the combustion of its own sub
stance being very slight, but there is a
choice in wicks. Felt wicks are preferable
to woven, ae they can be more easily
trimmed to give a good shaped blaze.
Some housewives in trimming a wick
will cut off all the black every day. Thii
is undesirable, for by pinching off the
loose fibers and smoothing over the top
a better light is obtained. The inside of
the oil reservoir should be carefully
cleansed soda dissolved in water
(teaspoonful to a quart of water). Ee
careful to drain and dry them well. This
can be easily done by standing them in
the open oven a few moments. Do not
let the soda and water come into contact
with any bronze or gilt about the ousido
of the lamp.
Oil should be strained before it is put
into a glass lamp. The burners should
be boiled in soda water once in a month
or two. If you live in or near where
there is a factory in which brass is
handled, take the burners there and
have them dipped. It will cost but a
few cents, and they will look like new.
Some burners give an excellent light,
especially for winter, as they'heat like a
small stove. One will very quickly raise
the temperature, in an ordinury-sized
room, five degrees. People practice
aconomy in all ways and use widely
different means of “saving a little,’
which is a good thing to do—but don’t
for the sake of your eyes and health
economize by using poor, worn-out
burners on your lamps, which render
combustion imperfect, and would be
none too good if new. —New York News.

The Sugar Trust.
The closing of another refinery at
Boston, Mass., by the sugar trust indi
cates that it is the policy of the trust to
supply the Eastern maiket from its plant
iu the vicinity of New York city. The
whiskey trust or alcohol trust of the
West has undertaken in tjie same way to
concentrate its producing plant in Peoria,
and has closed many distilleries in other
cities. It appears that although the two
sugar refineries in Philadelphia that have
not entered the trust are compelled to
pay more than the trust for raw material,
they undersell the trust by one-eightli of
a cent. The trust will undoubtedly re
new its efforts to bring these refineries
into the ring; If it should succeed, it
would have no formidable opponent ex
cept Claus Spreckels, and his new re
finery at Philadelphia, Pa., cannot be in
opeiation before next Summer.
Safeguard Against a Fast.
Medical and other professional men
often break down from their inability to
keep a regular time for meals. An
eminent doctor says:
“Being often out for many hours, and
becoming too exhausted to digest a full
meal when at length able to get it, I
conceived a plan which answered ad
mirably well, and which other doctors
gladly adopted. I provided myself
with a small bottle of lime water, which
I added to a glass of milk when passing
a dairy-shop; or I put a small flask of
the mixture in my pocket. A water
biscuit with this will keep a man from
harm on a long fast, and enable him to
digpst a meal when he is able to obtain
it.”

Dear Sir: In April, 1885, while thinking of t&fciaa
orders in September. I suddenly received notice that
my ordination examination would be held in a fort
night. I had only ten (1C) days in which to p- *pai»
for the Exam. I should recommend a year's previa*
ation in the rase of anyone so utterly unprepared an
I was; but your System had so strengthened my nat
ural memory that I was able to remember and scirm
the tfist of any book after reading it erne. I there
fore read Lhrhtfoot, Proctor, Harold Brown*.
Aloe hoi m, kc , fcc., once, and was successful in everm
one of the nine papers. The present Bishop of E ien
burg knows the facts. Faithfully yours,
