One who knows says thai tho only
f-eeret about baked beans is "to have
them jnit right." You wimt to soak them
over night, or parboil them in two or
three waters until they are at the crack
ing point. If your appetite is not robust
enough to eat jiork and you have the nrt
ta cook them without it, all that is re
quired is to seisoii the dish to the fine
point of half a pinch of salt, a single
sh.ike of tho pepper b x, and a lump of
butter neither t o large nor too small,
andhiive apiece of fresh spare rib roasted
separately to nerve with them. The beam
must also lie of "just the right consist
ency when put into the dish for baking."
If you have stamina enough for pork put
t he sweet cris-crossed piece of Reasoning
meat, with its possibilities of crisp rinds,
in the center of the dish, with slices or
namenting the sides. All you need of
the oven is to have it " neither too hot
nor t;u slow." The beans must then
Nimnier until they are "just done." To
secure the exact shade of brown ever the
top, and the precise degree of heat and
moisture inside needed to bring each in
dividual beau to the very point of cracking
un.l coalescing with its neighbor without
directions entirely doing it ! that is ull
the one needs as to baking. If it isn't clear
you must learn as the boy learns to swim.
And, then us to serving. Assert your in
dependence, nnd preserve the iutegrity
of your result by placing them upon the
table in the dish in which they were
cooked.
Furm Notes.
If farmers would keep a slate hanging
up in barn or workshop, with a pencil
attached by a string, so as to note down
woik to bo done on stormy days, it
would be found to be of great advan
tage. Fon PAf'Kixn Ice. New sawdust
should be procured, if possible, but old
sawdust will do very well if it is dry
and not rotted. If it is rotted it should
not bo used, ns it will soon be saturated
with water and lose it. nou-conductabili-
If you have a barrel of choice and
perfect npplcs which you wish to save
until spring, don't keep picking them
over. When ouje they are in a good
place in the collar and well headed up,
let them alone until you want to use
them.
Cattle during the winter while kept in
the barn most of the time should receive
u thorough brushing daily. Cattlo that
have their heads tied get very dirty
about the head and neck unless they re
ceive careful grooming. Cleanliness is
very essential to their health.
A farmer measured the water con
sumed daily by a lot of cuttle one hot
Bummer. As it had to be pumped for
them, the quantity used was easily as
certained. The result of his observa
tions wai that thirty-nix head of cattlo
consumed daily ttbou't 900 gallons of wa
tar. According to this estimate the sup
ply of water amounted to about twenty
live gallous per head.
Kcxulnrily la Feediuir.
It is very comfortable in cold weather
to Bit by a warm fire. Many who have
the care of stock dislike to leave warm
quarters, and cling to the fireplace, let
ting half hour after half hour pass by,
while the hungry utock are uhivering
and hungering for food and water. Iu
thus waiting fur food and water, an ani
mal loses tlesh rapidly. Brutes are the
best time keepers in the world. They
know the very minute their food should
ba supplied, uud arc disujipoiuted if it
does not come. The good stock breeder,
therefore, should see that regularity and
promptness prevail in tho care and mau
a jfcinent of stock. Their various wants
should have attention ut the very min
ute daily. If hired men will not be
prompt in taking cure of stock, if they
don't sympathize with brutes iu winter.
they ought to be discharged and more
uimuie men employed in their places.

woi rem, i,u . , iarKe proporn. ,, oi ,
the public puts only a doubting faith iu
iron bridges, and really thinks them
, dangerous when they have stood many
years, and especially during misty
weather.
It rarely happens, says the New Y
Trilnmr, that a deep rooted popular
lief is wholly mistaken. It is more than
likely to be founded in a half truth.
When farmers hang their new scythes
outside the barn in order that the' steel
may rust and thereby improve its tem-
, per ; when for a similar reason some ;
workmen bury their tools in the earth
. while not in use ; when n blacksmith
picks the oldest iron in his shop for the ,
choicest work, there is certainly ' evi- !
deuce, so far as popular belief can be
alleged as testimony, thnt nge and ex-
posure improve the metal. Men who
have studied the subject give a reason
forthe improvement of iron or steel in ;
such instances ; they say that the im
purities of the metal are brought to the
surface ami thrown off by slow rusting.
Prof. Thurston has cited the instance of !
the rails on the Camden nnd Aniboy
j ronil, laid down in 18il2. They were theii
, brittle and of poor quality. Taken up
in recent years thev wore found t i be
. excellent stuff, am) when sent to the '
' rolling mills furnished bariron of unusual
excellence. This and similar instances
seem to set at naught the theory that
the vibration nf parsing trains causes iron
after a while to crystallize. ' Robert ;
Stephenson and John A. Koebling dis
; tinctly recorded their disbelief iu the
crystallization theory. William Fair
bairn, on the other hand, yielded a .
modified assent to it after opposing it.
But the report of tho Hoosnc tunnel
commissioners presented n fact that could
not be set aside. The rock drilling
engines used in that work gradually be- .
gun to fail in strength. After the
. metals used in those machines had given
1 millions upon millions of blows, they :
began to granulate, and lost cohesive
liess. In certaiu French experiments
; which combined torsion with shock, it
was found that 12!),000 blows had no
perceptible effect upon a new axle ;
338,0!)0 blows caused n change in tex
ture that was seen by the naked eve ;
, alter 78,000,000 shocks the metal, when
: broken, was found to bo scaly within,
like pewter. A testing machine long
used in the navy yard at Washington,
1 and fitted t bear a strain of 300 tons,
broke down at lust with only one hun
dred tons. Its fracture showed well de
fined crystals.
Against such facts nre to be put proofs
positive that iron tested by Prof. Thurs
ton nnd by Commander Boar.lsles in
widely differing experiments gained
' strength nnd absolutely stiffened under
strain. Iu one of the Benrdslee experi
ments iron that broke under a strain of
! (58,000 pounds was so improved by its
treatment that it sustained 88,000 pounds
' without fracture on the following day.
; Equally conflicting is tho evidence
. about the effect of cold. The late Mr.
Roebling kept samples of iron in snow
and ice for a lengthened period, and
tested them while cold both by weights
' and blows without finding the least
i deterioration of strength. The railroad
commissioners of Massachusetts in then
; report for 1874 scout the iden that cold
makes iron or steel brittle, anil declare
I that it is not the rule that the most
breakages occur on the coldest days,
i German railway statistics for 1870 give,
; however, two-fifths more nxles broken in
! tho cold than in the warm half of the
j year. In Wood's treatise on the re
j sistance of metals, where most of tho
foregoing facts nre slated, there urti men
! tioned several curious instances of the
sudden breakage of iron, nnd nn abstract
; is given of the experiments of Mr. Sand-
berg, of Loudon, which showed that
I ordinary iron roils had at ten dog. Fuh.
only a third or a fourth of the strength
; they possessed nt eighty-four deg. Wo
havo cited experiments which seem nt'
j first sight squarely contradictory, and it
; must bo admitted that much yet remains
i to be learned before cither view can be
held with certainty. Out of the mass of
. evideuce ono fact alone remains unques
j tionable : that the best of iron nnd steel
is the least likely to give way under
! strains, shocks or changes of temperature.
The Engraver's Trap.

j England, happening to look through his
' shop wiudow, observed an elderly gen-
tlenmn, whom he recognized us an ex-

: his curiosity by an ontside inspection,
he entered the nhop, notebook and pen
cil in hand, and opened a conversation
! with the proprietor. " Mr. J., I be
ilieve?" "Yes, I am Mr. J." "You
1 keep a trap, I understand.'" "Yes."
'"Have yon a license for that trap?'
, " No." Down goes an entry of this ean

WATCHMAKING IS AMERICA.
Testimony of the Swiss CniiiiiiiMHiinier
American Nnprrinr to l'orelini VatcliCM.
M. Edtmard Favre Perret, Swiss ennunia
siouer to the C'eiiteiinial Exhibition, nnd mem-
her of the international jury on watches, has !
given the result of his observations on Ameri- j
fun watchmaking iu a public address at Chaux- !
; de-Fonds, Loele and Xcuchatcl. Iieing himself '
a large watch manufacturer, his statements i
made a profound impression iu Switzerland, '
and will bo read with the liveliest interest iu
this country. After sketching tho growth of j
watclimnkiug in liesanrjon, by which the French
market for watches was lost to Switzerland, be
8)Kike substantially s follows : !
For a long time America has been the princi- j
pal i 'arket for our watches. To-day we must !
earnestly prepare to struggle with tho Amori- j
cans on the fields where hitherto we have been j
the masters. Mr. Deiuiisoii, tho father of '
American watchmaking, travuled through the j
canton of Xeuihatel, studying our mode of i
i manufacturing, seeking to inform himself of j
; everything, ami carefully noting the weak points-!
! iu our iiidiiHtry. After his return to the United
Mates, in 1851, he founded a factory nt Boston j
' "The IVi-ton Watch Company." The capital I
scaraely 100,(H0-was subscribed by capital-
iits more than by practical business men. In
the beginning, the cmuimuy turned out only
tho rough skeletou movement, and attended to
the finishing j all other parts, such as trains,
balances, jewels, etc., were imported from Swit
zerland. Little by little, however, tho factory
extended its operation and produced other i
parts, liut as tho prnlits were small, thoeapi- :
talists abandoned it and it failed in 1K56. !
Another American, Mr.- liobbins, scented a j
good speculation, and bought the factory and j
,tools for i?75,000. A new company "Tho
American Watch Company" was formed, with j
a capital of 200,000, which was increased to 1
(300,000 before the war, which put on foot a j
million of soldiers, 0114 as every one wanted a j
watch, there was great animation in the watch 1
business. At tliis juncture, which might liave
been a lucky ono for our industry, we failed to
comprehend our real interests. Instead of
sending good watches to tho Americans, tho
worst trash was sent. The Americana, however,
went to work on an entirely different plan. The
company increased their plant and turned out a
better ordinary watch than the Swiss watch. At
the end of several years tho American watch
enjoyed a good reputation, while ours were dis
credited even-where. In 1805 the capital was
increased to '7u0,000, und the operations of the
company grew to immense proportions. Tho
Waltham Company gives employment to 1100
workmen, und make about 42a movements per
day. They have again increased then- capital
till it amounts to 1,500,000, besides 300,000
as a reserve fund. This watch factory is a real
tiower; there is none like it in Europe. We
have seen it in ull its details, uud we have ad
mired its splendid organization.
Last May, on the eve of the Exhibition, we
still secme'd masters of the situation. One
event, however, dealt us a mortal blow. The
Waltham Company announced a reduction of

A largo safe was opened before me ; at random
I tH)k a watch out of it and fastened it to mv
chain. The director baring asked mo to let
him hnvc the watch for two or three days, so ns
to observe its motion, I answered! "(In the
contrary, I persist iu wearing it lust as it is to
obtniu an exact idea of your manufacture." At I
Var'tn, I set mv watch by a rcaulntor on the i
Ikmlevnrd, and on tho sixth day I observed thnt '
il nnd varied swoihIk ! And tins wntch is of .
the liftU Amerirna prnde ; it cost 75 francs i
(movement without ejisei. On my arrival nt
Ioele I showed the watch to one of our first
adjusters, who Inked permission to tnke it '
down thnt is, totuko it to pieces. I, however, '
w iilied first to observe it, nnd hero is the result :
which i noted : Hanging, daily variation, one i
nud oue-hnlf seconds i variation in differcut '
imsitiims, from foir to eight seconds ; in the !
heated rooms the variation wns very slight, j
Having thus observed it, I handed tile watch
over to the adjuster, who took it down. After :
a few days he cane to me, nnd said, word fur i
word : " m ritnul' U hi nnwhrluxnl ; the re- ;
nill is hm-clihlv ; on not find one em-h

IlAMMosusrOBT, N. Y., Feb. 23, ISfll.
Ik or Mr Soaie three years since I was, after
a long solcitatinu, induced by your agent, Mr.
Davis to try a bottle of your"VisTAtt s Balsam
ok Wild Chrkky, which required no little per
suasion on his part, as I had already tried al
most every patent medicine on the whole list,
within the last ten years, but all to no avail. I
have for the past twenty years been troubled
with a ronHiuiiirw cough, and had become so
much reduced as to be unable to sit up, and had
f uUy given up ever finding anything to help m,
us liiy case was conceded bv all to be u settled
case of consumption, and therefore deemed to
tally incurable. In that situation I commenced
the'nse of the Wild Chubby, from which I soon
began to find somo relief, and pre severed in
its use until I had taken some three or four
bottles, when my health was almost fully re
stored ; and for the past two years 1 have en
joyed better health than I havo before in
twenty years, and feel that I am alone indebted
to the Balsam for my recovery ; and I think I
hazard nothing in saying that I owe my present
existence to it, and that it is the best medicine
I have ever known for consumptive coughs and
colds. Having known of its like beneficial
effects in other cases than my own, I would
most cheerfully recommend its use to all thus
alHictcd.
Very respectfully yours, Mrs, Moses Abbot.
I hereby certify that I have read the fore
going letter of Mrs. Abbot, and having lived
adjoining the farm of Mrs. Abbot over twenty
years, know the above statement contained
therein to be true. I would also state that I
have used Dr. Wistab's Balsam or Wild
Cherry myself and in my family, and believe it
to be the best remedy for eoughi and eoldt I
have ever known. - Respectfully,
Geo. 8. Bbtodaok.

Inheritor of Vast wealth are proverbially
wtidthrifts. The golden ore is dug from tho
mine, refined and coined bV the labor of other
hands and thh sweat of Other brows; Like chiU
dron playing with an expensive toy; they Can
form no lilst estimate of its vain. ' When the
donor weighed It, he cast Into the. balance so
many days of unremitting and fatiguing toil, so
many anxious and sleepless nights, ao much
self-denial, and ao much care. But tne inherit
or into his balanco throws only pleasure. Tho
ono values it by what it cost him ; the other for
what it will purchnse. Like the prodigal in the.
Hcripture parable, ho thoughtlessly expends it
to gratify the caprice and cravings of bis na
ture. Then comes the -Inst scone the misery,
tho reTnorso, nnd the long and wearisome Jour
ney back to the homo of frugal industry. lint
there are other prodignls. On her favorites our
bounteous parent, iinture, has lavished her
richest treasnro health. Hut the prodigal
values it lightly, for it cost him naught, and
recklessly squanders it in riotous living. Pres
ent ploasurcs obscure future want. Hoou tho
rurtnln rises on the Inst scene. Wo see him
helpless, impoverished the richest treasures of
body and mind at lost In misery and despair,
lieniorseful conscience holds up to him the
mirror of memory. In his own reckless folly
ho perceives tho cnuseof his present pain. He
resolves to return. The jonrnev Is long and
tedious, but if he persvveringly follows the
right road, he will nt length see' tho haven of
Ins hopes in the distance, and nature, seeing j
hit iiminu cniiu niur on, niu come oui ut meet
him, and receive him back with love and bless
ing. To find the right road homeward, the
suffering prodigal should read "The People's
