The best way to feed meal to cow is to cut hay and wet it only as much as to make the rueal adhere to it, and mix this with it, adding s small hand ful of salt with each feed. The meal is then more completely digested than if it were given by itself, in which case it is apt to paw on to the third stomach and miss the ruminaiinn which is necessary to tho perfect di gestion 01 a cow s food. Fi"e pounds of cut hay and three quarts of corn meal will make a full sincln food for cow giving ten or twelve quart of mint a aay. it is not desirable to try to feed a cow for milk and fat both, as the food is then apt to be diverted ti fat only, and the milk may decrease in any but a specially-gifted butter or milk animal. Some cows will shrink in milk as soon as they are fed dry meal or shorts, and turn the food to flesh and fat. Such a cow is not profit able in a dairy. The best milk and butter cow is one that is not easily fattened, but turns the food to these most-desired products, and keeps thin as long as she is milking. New York Times. HOTBED MAKLVO. The work of selecting the place for the hotbed and cold-frames for start ing early seeds should not be post poned any longer. It takes some time to make the beds and fill them with the right soil. Tho farmer who does not make use of frames for starting his garden vegetables ought not bo classeil among progressive farmers. The seasons are too short for us to wait until spring before sowing our seeds. By the time the ground is ready for sowing our garden plants are several inches high, and by transplanting them from the frames to the open ground we save a minth or more. In this way raising two good crops in one sea son on one piece of ground is made easy. The early plants are also the ones that bring the most money, and those raised in the frames always bring in more returns to the farmer than the ones sown in the open ground during April and May. Many prefer the plants grown in frames first to those planted later in the field, as they have stronger roots and stalks, making it possible for them to resist dry weather. The hotbeds should be constructed right away, for there are some slow germinating seeds that ought to be put m the ground very early. It takes time to gather and mix the right soil for the beds, and there will be many days when the ground will be frozen too hard to dig any soil for the beds. New York Independent. WATER-CRESS CTXTTVATlOy. In answer to inquiries, the Farmers' Voice gives the following directions for growing water -cress : Water-cress requires a clear running stream and a gravelly soil. The roots should be planted in the spring- of the year in slow-running streams, where the water is from three to eight inches deep. When the roots are well established the plants will rapidly increase, and, by their natural process of seed-sowing aud spreading of the roots, they will soou cover tho surface of the Btream. When planted the rows should be planted with the course of the stream and about eighteen inches apart. The plants should always be cut, not broken off, as breaking them off is injurious to the plants. After they have been cut off two or thrco times they will begin to stock out or thicken out, and then the oftener they are cut the better. When raised from seeds they should be sown on the mar gin of the stream, and when of suitable size transplanted into it, where it is an inch and a hulf or two deep. The most suitable time for sowing is in the months of April, May and June. There are said to be three varieties of water cressnamely : the green-leaved, which is considered to be the easiest to cultivate ; tbe small brown-leaved, which is thought to be the hardiest, nd the large brown-leaved, which is said to be the best for deep water, SMALL FRUITS. Now it is time to apply manure to blackberries, currants, raspberries and other small fruits. It should be scat tered broadcast at the roots of these plants, which should run over consid erable) territory. Autumn and wiuter are the most favorable seasons for spreading the mauure, since the raius and snows of winter can distribute the fertility through every portiou of the son miicli more cheaply and effectively than limu can with the bi'ot of tools for tho purpose With the so-called hardy varieties of fruits winter pro tectioii, even iu onite uortheru luti tudex, does uot appear very general, mid yet, without doubt, this is tin true jiIhu. If cultivators could but see how their crops ure oftentimes diminished by severe winters, even when plants are not killed outright by the changes of temperature, protection would more regularly e given. It is quite a simple thing to cover tho roots of plants several inches deep with leaves or hay just after the ground has begun to freeze, anil thus prevent the alter nate freezing and thuwiug whioh provo no injurious. Iu addition, raspberry vines should be bent down and cov ered, partially at leant. Wiuter winds harm the canes to a considerable ex tent. Opportunity is offered t ettablitih fiew plautatiuus uutjl the grynud freezes add puts an end to snob, opera tions. In transplanting remove fully one-half tho canes and set out well in mellowed soil ; cover with deep mulch and protect the entire plants as well as possible. If spring work will not be too pressing tho plant may be secured now and "heelod in" to be in readi ncs fur setting early next spring. Really spring is a better season for transplanting than fall. I'raiwe Farmer. OHREN FEED AND PFRE AID FOB rOtTMBY. It should never bo forgotten that poultry need some kind of green food at all seasons of the year. In winter there can be given them qabbages, choppod onionH, or turnips, occasion ally varying this diet with short late dried hay. Toultry also relish corn stalk leaves, if chopped flno. In the early spring time, when tho ground first softens from the frost, grain and other Becds should tie thrown into the pens, and unless they are kept in the open, they should have a plentiful supply of it daily. !?or young chick ens, nothing is so beneficial and bo gateful as a run upon newly-grown grass. Grass torn up by the roots ie eaten by hens, it is true, but not with that advantage or relish aa when they can pluck it standing. Some ponltry keepers sprout oats in boxes of earth and allow their birds to eat off the soft shoots. Rutabagas and carrots are excellent winter feeds, and about the cheapest to be obtained. It may be that the fowls will not take to them in a raw state ; if bo, the roots may be cooked, mashed, and mixed with bian aud meal. Next to a plentiful supply of green food, ventilation is tho most important item to be considered in keeping fowls healthy. More fowls have perished for the want of perfect ventilation than from any other cause. One of the best and simplest plans to let pure air into the poultry house is to have a hole in the floor about six inches wide and several feet long, and covered over with wire netting, which is loft open in summer and kept cov ered up in winter. With a corre sponding opening" at the top, this will admit the fresh air from the bottom, and also allow all heavy gases to es cape. It is the most perfect system that can be devised for admitting pure air to poultry houses, and it is, at (he same time, the cheapest and most cosily arranged. Sunlight, pure air, aud green food make poultry profit able, but a lack of them brings disease and consequent loss. American Agri culturist. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Trotters have too much energy for farm work. Horses differ in intelligence almost as much as men do. Drive the colt the first time with a fast-walking horse. After choosing a place for the bee stands do not change it. A little drive every day aids the development of young horses. Don't neglect to replace the roll ol salt in each stall as soon as it is gone. Italians produce a larger number of bees than blacks, and so, indirectly, more honey. The French stuff their fowls with fresh butter before roasting them, and baste them continually. Fertilizers should be applied broad cast around the trees and not in imnie diate contact with them. To leave the bees a reasonable supply of honey for the winter is better than attempting to feed them. Mat ng for the best results in vigor and fertility requires careful study and practical observation. The goose-raising English and Irish counties are those with very thick pastures witn snort grass. Ducks should never be yarded with other poultry, as they will pollute tho water and cause sickness. If young pigs are allowed to run with fattening hogs they will lay on too much fat to grow well. Feed and shelter the cows well this winter aud you will be surprised at the increased amount of butter. The color of tbe shell is no indica-. tion of the quality of 'the eau, but simply shows the breed of owl. Experience counts for a good deal iu managing poultry. It is on the little details that success depends. Sell from the young stock, and do not sacrifice fowls and turkeys which have proved satisfactory, unless very old. (live the fowls all the skim milk and buttermilk you can spare. They will return it to you in the form of eggs. Boiling or hilly land is the best situ ation for the poultry -house. Handy and gravelly soils are also to be pre ferred. The more familiar a man becomes with his orchard and other trees the more quickly will he observe their wants. Cocks should not be kept in tae pen with the layers, as au egg-producing diet will fatten them and ruin them ae breeders. , The Hurting is tho most populai fowl iu Eugluud. There are three varieties tlui colored, tae silver-gray aud the v bite. The moth miller 'is a much to be dreaded euemy of the bees, but if the stock is kept strong they will not allow it to deposit Hi eggs on the comb. , It pays to keep the best stock of bees, as well as other good stock ou the farm, aud by careful selectiou great improvement is possible. It doesn't pay to keep a cow for tno chance of a calf alone. Corn and gratis uro milk producers.

New York Post HITS OF liAMP LORE. Lamp wicks should have t ho charred part rubbed off with a rag kept for that purpose. They should very seldom bo cut.

It is bad for the wick and bnruor when the oil is loft over from one even ing's reading and is made to do duty a second time The tauk should be tilled again. About once a month the wick should be removed, the burners unscrewed and boiled in a little water in which common washing soda has been dis solved. This will remove the almost imperceptible coating of dust and grease that forms on tho brass. The lamp chimney should be washod in warm, soapy water each day, a mop made especially for such work being used. AVhen dried it should be pol ished with soft newspaper or chamois. TIIE ART OF FATVHINrt. How many patch clothes, par. ticniarly children's clothes, with littlo regard to the stripo and check, and sometimes to the shade of the gar ment patched. Then some seem to think the larger the patch the better. Of course the thinness of the cloth near the holo will have something to do with the size of tho patch, but when a throe-cornered tear is mended take a piece exactly matching the check or stripe of the garment, and just large enough to leave a space equal to the fell taken on the other side between the hem and the run ; then on the right Bide make a cut in each corner equal to the depth of the fell, and a much squarer, neater patch is made. If a woolen garment, it should be dampened and the fell thoroughly pressed with a moderately hot iron. A patch should never be put on the right side of a garment. If the rent or wear is near a seam insert aside of the patch into this, aud some times two seams aro so near that the patch can scarcely be noticed. Gener ally people fasten the patch on the wrong side by ruuning a thread along near tho edge. A better way is to cat stitch the patch on to the garment. POTATO COOKER?. It seems a pity to the New York World that when there are so many delicious ways of serving potatoes, they are ever sent to the tablo in the unappetizing lump form which is most prevalent. Here are a few substitutes for the everlasting "boiled"' potato. Potatoes in Jackets Bake as many potatoes as are needed. Cut a small piece from one end and a larger ono from the other. Remove tho inside and rub through a sieve. Pat on the fire with half an ounce of butter aud one ounce of grated cheese for every four potatoes. Add boiling milk, salt and pepper as for mashed potatoes. Fill the skins with this paste, sprinkle tops with grated bread crumbs and cheese and put in the oven to brown. Potato Souffle Boil six good-sized mealy potatoes. Rub through a sieve. Scald a teacup of sweet milk and three teaspoons of butter. Add a little salt and pepper and mix with the potatoes. Beat to a cream. Add one at a time the well-beaten yolksof six eggs. "Beat the whites to a froth and stir lightly into the mixture. Pour into a well- buttered baking dish aud bake for about half an hour in a quick oven. Potato Balls Mash some potatoes with salt, pepper, butter and a little chopped parsley. Roll into balls, dip in beaten egg, roll iu bread crumbs and fry for a few minutes in hot but ter. Texas Baked Potatoes Mash and season with pepper and salt some good Irish potatoes. Mince a large onion fine, mix thoroughly with the potatoes and bake in a brisk oven. Transparent Leather. According to the Magasiu Pittor esque, transparent leather can now be made. Before the hide is absolutely dry it is placed iu a room which the rays of the sun do not penetrate, aud is saturated with a solution of bichro mate of potash. When the hide is very dry tin-re is applied to its surface an s.coholie solution of tortoiso shell, and a truiiKpuroiit aspect is thus ob tained. 'I'll in leather is exceedingly flexible. It is used for the maui: tnutr.re of toilet articles, but there is nothing to prevent it from being lined for footgear, and perhaps, with fancy stockings, shoes made of it would uot prove uupleasant to the sight.

Explaining the absence of wine from the menu, tho Bishop took occasion to say -. '1 will any in reference to the banquet to night that it was the only thing in the cele Wation of the silver Inhilee that I whs at all consulted about, and I was cousultod only about what we should not have at the ban quet. I, as you know, have tried to be a consistent advocate of the virtue of temper ance, even going so far as to advocate the propriety and the need of total abstinence on the part of our clergy and our people for the sake of example at least, even though the practice of total abstlnonoo might not bo al together necessary for their individual wel fure. I am not a fanatic on thnt point, but I asked the committee that there should be no wine or Intoxicating liquors at this banquet, and I did that in order that I might In some way or other preserve tho consistency of my police and my teaching for the Inst thirteen years."

During the prevalence of cholera In Cln. riiiniiti a gentleman, a member of a church, nud, up to that time, a rigid teetotaler, de sired his wife to put ataMuspoonfulof brandy iu his gloss every day nt dinner. The wile was surprised ; but deeming it the result of a wise professional council, she compiled, and the husband tilled up the glass with water and drank it. A week passed by, and be said to his wife while at dinner, " Sly dear, you have been cutting off my supply of brandy. This has lost its taste I It does not produce the same effect ns at first." His wife assured hiinshe had given tbe full amount, nnd he said no more. Another week passed by, aud he repeated to his wife tbe conviction that she had less ened the qunntily of brandy. It did not pro duce the same effect as at first. He could scarcely taste it, nnd the effects on his stom ach were not perceptible.

A sad and suggestive story of the evils re sulting from the presence of the drinkshoiis in this city Is thus related for us by a well known mission worker. A Greek by the name of Theodore I.eonls arrived In New York from Pittsburg, where he had accumu lated about five hundred dollars, aud en gaged pasaagd on board of a steamer for Athens, where he has a wife and four chil dren. During the day he met with two Ita lians with whom he visited a saloon and took a social gloss. While under the influence of the drink, or possibly some drug which was given him. they succeed in relieving him of 4S0 in gold which he had strapped about bis body. When he oame to hlinsolf and dis covered that bis money was gone and that the steamer with his bagguge on board had sailed, tbe poor fellow was almost insane with grief and excitement, and made Disease known to the oflicers, but with very Itltle prospect of recovering his lost treasure. Ho linaliy disposed of bis ticket to procure lodg ings and meals. In the course of two 3r three weeks, thresh the kindness of parties to whom his misfortunes were made known, means were provided for his return to 1'itts burg, where lie said be could again obtain emplo) meat. His case is one ot the saddest we have ever met with, and is a striking il lustration of the evils ol the saloon, and of the dangers to which men are exposed through that system ot highway rohlmry which Is so prevalent In all largo cities, known as tho "conlidonoe feaine.
