FARM AND GARDEN.
FATTENING TURKEYS.- It is a goodly
fcight, as the summer days wane, to
see the flocks of Turkeys coming home
from the woods and pastures at night
fall with full crops. If the farm lias
not been overstocked with these birds,
they have very largely made their liv
ing upon grasshoppers, crickets,worms,
and other small fry. The regular food
they have had has been rather to keep
them wonted than to supply any lack
of forage. As the cool nights come on,
and the supply of insects declines, the
business of iattening properly com
mences. It should be remembered that
plump, well-dressed turkeys not only
bring a higher price in market, but en
hance the reputation of the producer,
and make his market sure for future
years. The turkey is one of the finish
ed products of the farm, and one of the
greatest luxuries in the market. The
laruier should do his best in preparing
liis flock for the shambles. The main
business now is to lay on fat. and the
birds should have every night and
morning a full supply of nutritious
and fattening food. Instinctively the
turkey follows his feed, aud if the sup
ply is abundant at the farm-yard, lie
will not stroll iar from home. Roiled
potatoes, mashed and mixed with meal,
and fed moderately warm, is a very
excellent feed, both to promote growth
and to fatten. It the pigs c 11 be rob
bed of a part of their milk, and it be
mixed with a part o! the hot potatoes
aud meal, it will very much improve
the dish, it is very desirable to sup
ply the place of insects witn some kind
of animal iood, and butchers' scraps is
one of the cheapest and uiost desirable
forms of food for poultry. Grain should
be given at least once a day with the
•oit and warm leed. Nothing is better
than sound corn. The Northern corn
is thought to contain more oil than that
Of Southern growth. Old corn should
always be used for this purpose. Tlio
new corn keeps tkeui too loose. In
feeding only so much corn should be
throw n out, as the birds will eat up
clean. Take a little time to feed them,
and study wstlietlcs as you watch the
iridesceut hues upon the glossy plum
age. There is nothing more charming
upon the farm in the w hole circle ot
the year than a hundred or two of these
riciily-brouaed turkeys feeding near
the corn-crib. You can afford to enjoy
the disappearance of corn while the
turkeys are increasing in weight.
HIXTS ON HOUSE KEEPING. — The
wide stall is a luxury, aud ought to be
six, or even ten feet wide, if room can
be spare-. Loose boxes are important
for horses 01 great value; in such stalls
they can get perfect repose by changing
their position, recover from the fatigue
of a hard day's drive, and be ready for
their task the next day. The best food
adapted to the horse is oats and liay of
the best quality, occasionally varied
with a bran mash, with turnips or car
rots as an alternative. The growth
and development of bone and muscle
depend greatly on the tood they eat.
It is important to select such as contains
all the elements needed to form the
hone and muscle of the horse. It is
self-evident that the nutritive matter
applied 6y the food must be equal to
the exhaustion or natural waste of the
bedv, to keep upconditiou. The horse
that is about to be driven on a journey
■eeds hardening by exercise—prepar
ing by sweating out the body to purify
aud increase the circulation ef the blood
and also by hand-rubbing the legs to
make them firm and elastic —a prepar
ation in some degree corresponding
with that attained by a horse that is
daily driven on the road for ordinary
work. For one week from tlie start
they need daily exercise, commencing
with eight or ten miles, aud gradually
increasing to twenty per day. This
exercise, with appropriate lood, will
harden their muscles, strengthen their
limbs, and prepare them to perform
their tasks without giving out 011 tlie
road, materially deciiuing in flesh, or
seriously exhausting their physical
powers. If we perform long drives
with horses accustomed to short work
only, the sudden trausitiou from indo
lence to great exertion will relax their
muscles, weaken their joints, depress
their spirits j>nd break dowu their con
stitution. The leading cause ot so
many valuable horses being spoiled by
loug drives is being short of work.
They are not piepared for such seveie
exertions. Condition will prepare
their work cheerfully, last out with
sound limbs, and prejmre their consti
tutional vigor lor future usefulness.
DRY EARTH AS BEDDING FOR STOCK.
—There is nothing more useful in pro
moting the health and comfort of stock
during the winter season, when ani
mals have to be housed and led, than
dry earth. While it is the most abun
dant, cheapest and easily acquired of
all absorbents and disinfectants, It is
almost entirely neglected. Straw makes
a very imperfect bedding. It serves
110 purpose whatever, as an absorbent
and only indifferently well for keeping
the animals clean. Farmers who have
comfortable barns and stables for their
stock should, during the dry season in
the fall, and before freezing commences,
gather from roads and sources of supply
that are convenient, and store under
cover, enough pulverized dry earth to
keep the stalls and sleepiug apartments
of their stock well supplied through
the winter. A good bed of dry earth is
far more comfortable for hogs than one
of straw, but both should be used.
For keeping the stables where milch
cows are sheltered and fed, cleau and
sweet, fine dry earth is superior to any
thing else. The liquid voiding of the
animals is absorbed and all smells pre
vented from pervading the premises.
A dusting of dry earth banishes ver
min from stock, and is at once the sim
plest, most convenient and harmless of
all remedies for, or prevention of, ver
min. As a saver of manure for those
who value this source of farm wealth,
dry earth is the most complete. There
Is nothing more desirable than clean,
sweet cow-stables if good milk and but
ter are objects, and no other means will
achieve this end so thoroughly, so con
veniently and without extra expense,
as to have convenient for use through
the winter a supply of dry earth.
MUSTY hay and damaged grain cannot
be fed to stock with impunity.

DOMESTIC.
Ctrri.—ln treating ordinary puts,
cleanliness and care are generally more
requisite than skill. If the cut he ex
t< nslve, 01 ah artery, vein, or any oth
er important part be injured, it becomes
a more urgent matter. Accidental cuts
frotn knives, cutting tools, Ac., are
more likely to occur 011 the lace and
liuibs than 011 the body. All that is
requisite In general, is to briug tliu
parts together as accurately as possi
ble, aud Dind them up; this is usually
done by adhesive plaster, when the cut
ceases to bleed. Nothing is so good
for this purpose as paper, first washed
oyer on one side with thick gum water,
and then dried ; when used, it is only
to be slightly wetted with the tongue.
When the cut bleeds but little, it is
well to soak it in warm water for a
few minutes,or to keep a wet cloth 011
it. Tills removes inflammation and
pain, add also a tendency to laiut
ness, which a cut gives some person .
If tlie bleeding be too copious, dab the
part with a rag wetted witli creosote.
If the wound be large, it should be
sewed up. If the blood that issues be
very scarlet, it may be concluded that
an artery has been touched, and then
whenever tlie bleeding cannot bo stop
ped, medical aid must be procured;
tlis best method to persue is to bind up
the wound tightly, or to hold a finger
strongly against the part that bleeds.
To MAKE BARLEY SUGAR. —To every
pound ot sugar allow half a pint of
water, and half the white of an egg.
Put the sugar into a well tinned sauce
pan, with the water, and w lien the
former is dissolved, s<t it over a mod
erate tire, adding tlie well-beaten egg
before tlie mixture gets warm, and stir
it well together. Wiieu it boils remove
the scum as it. rises and keep it boiling
until 110 more appears, and tlie svrup
h>ok9 perfectly clear; then strain it
through a tine sieve or muslin bag, and
put it back imo tlie saucepan. Boil it
again like caramel, until it is brittle,
when a little is dropped in a basin of
cold water, it is then sufficiently boiled.
Add a little lemon juiceand let it stand
for a minute or two. Have ready a
marble slab rubbed over with salad
oil; pour on the sugar, and cut it into
strips with a pair of scissors; these
strips should then he twisteu.
PROFITABLE PATIENTS— The most
wondertu) and marvelous success, in
cases where persons are sick or wast
ingaway from a condition of miser
ableness, that no one knows what ails
them, (profitable patients for doctors,)
[ is obtained by the use of Hop Bitters.
They begin to cure from tlie first dose
and keep it up until perfect health and
strength is restored. Whoever is af
flicted in this way need not stiller when
they can get Hop Bitters. See other

A VERY large quantity of poisonous
vines, or ivy, which cling-'to the trees,

therefore recommend "Labarraque's
solution of chloride of soda, which
when tho skin is not broken, can be
applied three or four times a day; when
broken, it should be diluted with from
three to six parts water. This remedy
is also prescribed for erysipelas, burns
and scalds and is found to be very ef
ficacious.
MINCED VEAL AND EGGS. —Take some
remnants of loast or braised veal, trim
of all browned parts, aud aiinceit very
finely; fry a shallot, or onion, chop
ped small, in plenty of butter; when
it is a light straw color add a little
pinch of flour and a little stock, then
the mince meat, with chopped parsley,
pepper, salt and nutmeg to taste; mix
well, add more stock if necessary, and
let the mince gradually get hot by the
side of the tire : lastly add a few drops
of lemon juice. Serve with sippets of
bread fried in butter round, aud the
poached eggs 011 tlie top.

CHOCOLATE DROPS, —Pour half a
pint boiling water 011 one quart of white
sugar; mix well, and boil ten minutes
without stirring; place the saucepan
in cold water, and stir briskly till it
becomes stiff enough to handle; mould
it in little balls and put it aside to cool.
Break the chocolate in pieces, and put
in a bowl in top of a boiling tea-kettle;
when melted, remove tlie bowl, and
drop in the balls one at a time; take
thom out with a fork and place on but
tered paper.
FRICASSEE CHICKEN. —Take two
good-sized chickens, nicely cleaned
and divided. Stew them in one quart
of water, and a half pint of rich, 6\veet
inilk: add a little salt and pepper, one
fourth of a pound of butter, a pint of
tender green corn cut from the cob:
and when the chickens are perfectly
done, thicken the gravy with a table
spoonful of flour made into a smooth
paste with a little cold water. Send
to the table in a deep dish.

Dr. C. Iluter , a German savant, of
Griefs wait), has devised a simple ar
rangement which demonstrates the cir
culation of the blood in the human body
by making it visible. What is known as
Purkinje's experiment previously en
abled an observer to witness the circu
lation in his own retinal blood vessels;
but now, for the first time,can the flow
of the vital fluid in one person be
watched by another, and that, we are
aS'ired, with sufficient accuracy to
detect anything abnormal,and to obtain
invaluatle assistance in the diagnosis
of disease. Dr. Iluter's method is as fol
lows: The patient's head being fixed in
a frame, en which is a contrivnee for
s ipporting-a microscope and a lamp,
his lower lip is drawn out and fixed 011
the stage of the microscope by means of
clips, the inner surface being upper
most, aud having a strong lightthrown
upon it by a condenser. When these
preparations are completed all the ob
server has to do is to bring the micro
scope to bear on the surface of the lip,
using a low-power objective, aud focus
ing a small superficial vessel. At once
lie sees the endless procession of the
blood corpuscles through the minute
c ipillaries the colorless ones appearing
like white specks dotting the red stream

A Valuable Plaetic Cement.—A mongst
the many useful purposes which glyce
rine has served, there are probably none
says The English Mechanic , of greater
utility than its combinations Willi other
substances, by which compounds with
peculiar properties have been produced.
A plastic cement is the latest invention
in which glycerine forms the important
ingredient; it Is known as Jannin's ce
ment, from Hie name of the patentee, a
resident of i'aris. The cement is simply
a mixture in suitable proportions of
yellow oxde of lead (the quality known
as massicot being preferable )wit!i
glycerine. Several other metallic oxides
and matters may be mixed with the ce
ment, so as to suit the quality or the
color ot the ceiucnt to the nature of the
work to be produced, but the two essen
tial compounds are yellow oxide of lead
and glycerine. The proportions of
oxide ol lead and glycerine vary accor
ding to the consistency of the cement
it is desired to produce. Tie* proportion
of glycerine will ol course be larger
for a soft cement than for a still'e inriit;
it is not necessary therefore, to specify
the < xav't proportion of each ol the
two issemiul compounds. 'Phis ce
ment is specially adapted for moulding
those objects which require an extreme
delicacy in the lines oi the cast,sucl ft*

does not shrink. Massicot, it may be
observed, is an old unme tor litharge,
but the Lena is inure generally applied
to tho yellow oxide ot lead prepared

For purposes in which the color is of no
