We have perhaps given before, hut will hear re publication : To 1 gallon of water, Take 1 i lbs. salt, !, lb. brown sugar, i oz. saltpetre, i oz. potash. In this ratio the pickle to be increased to any quantity desired. Let these be boiled together until all the dnt from the salt and sugar, (which will be not a little,) rises to the top and i> skimmed oil. — Then throw the pickle into a large tub to cool, and when cold, pour it over your heel or pork, to remain the usual time say from tour to six weeks, according to the size of the pieces, and the kind of meat. The meat must he well cov ered with the pickle and it should not he put down for at least twa-days alter killing, during which time it should lie slightly sprinkled with powdered salt pet re.— ( icrni't at own I clegrap/i. TO MAKE LARD CANDLES. .Me/o.ro. Editor*: —Having been the recipi ent of inanv favors through the columns of your invaluable publications, I propose as far as in me lies, to cancel the obligations already incurred, and as the first instalment, 1 shall oiler a recipe for making hard, durable and clean burning candles of lard. The manufacture of lard can riles is carried on to considerable extent in some of the Western States, particularly Wis consin, and being monopolized bv a few has proved very lucrative. 1 hefollwing is the re cipe in toto : To every 8 lbs of lard, add one ounce nitric acid : and the manner ot making is as follows. Having carefully weighed your lard [dace it over a slow fire, or at least merely inelt it; then add the acid, and mould the same as tallow, and vou have a clear beautiful candle. In order to make tliein resemble bona fide tallow candles, you have only to add a small proportion of pure beeswax. J. A. Roiii-on. POISON ANTIDOTES. Every one should be fully aware of the best remedies for some ot the more common poisons, so as to be ready to act at oner in any emergency. We will name some of these remedies—only one or two at a time, that each one may become fixed in the mind. Read the thrilling sketch on page 1203, ar.d you will never forget what an tidote to give for Corrosive Sublimate —rather we think, you will never leave that "bug poison where a child can possibly get to it. It is better to administer aloumen (white of eggs) beat up with a little water, but no delay must he allowed. Theonly hope of counteracting this deadly poi son lies in prompt action. If eggs are not on hand at once, given large and repeated doses of flour mixed with water, or better with sweet milk. Milk itself is a partial, if not complete antidote for Corrosive sublimate. Arsenic. — The best antidote for this poison is a chemical substance called Hifdrnted Perox ide oj Iron , freshly prepared, which can onlv be obtained of a druggist. Rut do not wait for this. While it is Oeing sent tor, and at the first moment after discovering that arsenic has been taken, pour down dose after dose of water slightly warmed, promoting vomiting by thiust mg the finger or a feather down the throat. Keep up this until the stomach has been literally washed out, at least a dozen times. A friend of ours took a teaspoouful o! arsenic in mistakp fir cream of tartar, but discovering his error soon aft°r, he ran to the stove and commenced drinking all lie could pour down of lukewarm dish water, which happened to be there. As fast as this was thrown up he took another dose, and in this way actually swallowed and vomited halfa pail full ol water. He recovered with out any other remedy. This treatment is good for most kinds of poison if adopted soon enough.— .hierican Agriculturist. RAKING BEETS. A correspondent, who has traveled in Italy, says that one of the interesting novelties in that country was "Baked Beets," carried hot from the ovens and sold in (he streets at almost all hours ot the day. lie tried them as a matter of curiosity, at first, and fnum! them very delici ous when eaten with butter, >ait and pepper. Thousands buy and eat them thus, and, not nn frequently, make up an entire meat in this way . This is not new to us. In Volume XIII., page 11/, we lecornrnenderl baking beets, and we can assuieull who will adopt this mode that they will find it much superior to boiling, as baking renders them much more fender, sweet and juicy.— American Agriculture*/. TO STOP POTATOES ROTTING- We clip the following from an Agricultural exchange:—"An experienced \gricuituralist informs us that about six years ago lie a .plied lime to Potatoes that were partly rotten, and that immediately arrested decay.—Potatoes that uere partly rotten when the lime was ap plied, continued to rot and were lost. Sluice then he has made it a common practice fo ap ply slacked lime to his p haloes as he takes them tip. He puts a thin layer of Im e upon the floor where the potatoes h , e to he laid, and •jtrutkl'S some of it OVtT ,)ie potato, s about every teu inches as they are p„< down.

LINIISKV, i'eai Sir: I have been using your Improved Blood Searcher since some time la -1 summer, and 1 deem it to he a matter of duty tohear ! my te-timony to its inrirzarnting blotnl restorative virtues. I have lieet) tor a number of years seveie- i I V troubled erysipelas and j; euer,if debility'. but since I put mvs" |f under the inllnence of your Improved. Blood Searcher, I find a very decided improvement, ; Indeed, mv acquaintances frequently remark, that I ' look so "fat and hearty:" and I know of no other ! cause ihan the use of your Improved Blood Searcher. , Judging from my own experience, I believe that this ' i- one or the most valuable medicines that woman ! ran use, especially those who are or have entered j ipon the decline of life (from 10 to 50 years of age). I feel that it would have been above ingratitude on rnv my part to have withheld this testimony, and in ' thus consenting to appear as a witness before the' public. I have been actuated solely with reference . lottie voice of conscience and duty. You are ; rt liberty to make whatever use you may deem pro- . per of this statement. Your-, respectfully, .MARGARET \V. O'DONNELL. !
