AGRICULTURE.
THK MOST ENDURING FRNC*S. —Of
all fences the most enduring and the
most satisfying to the eye is the stone
wall. If its foundation is well laid it
may last as long as the world—which,
indeed, it may slowly sink Into; or the
accumulating layers of earth may in
years cover it; but it will still be a wall
—a grassy liuge with a core of stone.
A wall soon gets rid of Its new look,
ti is not propped up on the earth, but
has its foundations in it; mosses and
lichens take quickly and kindly to it.
and grass auu weeds grow out of its
lower crevices, mtfllein and brakes and
the bulby stales of golden-rod spring
up beside it. Black raspberry bushes
loop along it, over it, and stretch out
lroui it, clumps of sweet elders, shade
its sides, and their broad cyuies of blos
soms, and later, clusters of blackber
ries, beloved of robins and school-boys,
bend over it. >Y hen the stones ol
which it Is built are gathered from the
tields, as they generally are, they are
oi iutiuite variety, brought from the
lar .North by glaueiers, washed up by
the waves ol aueient seas, and tumbled
down te the lower lauds lroui the over
hanging ledges. Lumps of gray
granite and gneiss, aud dull-red blocks
of sandstone, f agiuents ot blue lime.-
stone, and only a geologist kuows how
many others, mostly with smooth-worn
sides and rounded corners and edges.
All together, they make a line of beau
tiful variegated color, and of light aud
shade, Oue old wall that 1 know oi
has been a rich mine for a brood ol cal
low geologists, who have pecked it and
overhauled it, and looked and talked
mostly wisely over its stones, and
called them names hard enough to
break their stony hearts.
SOME THINGS FARMERS SHOULD
KNOW. —As a general thing the farmer
is liable lor all the public injury his
hired man may cause while actually
employed by him. If he sends him
into his lot to burn old brush, and he,
for any purpose whatever leaves it and
the lire ruus into his neighbor's, de
stroying his fence and injuring his
ciops the larmer is liable lor the dam
ages caused by the wanton neglect ol
his man. If he sends a hired man on
the road with his team, and he, by
negligence, runs into another vehicle
and injures it, the - farmer is liable for
the damages; but should the hired mau
leave the road he was directed to go,
and travel another road tor his own
pleasure, then the farmer would not be
liable for the damages should any aeei
deut oeeur. It a lured man, in going
to or from the lot with a scythe, and
by ihe eareless, handling or carrying
injures a pas-ftr-by, the liirmer is
liable for damage. If in cutting wood
the hired man cuts down a tree in
another lot, the farmer is liable for
trespass and damages, although lie dis
tinctly showed him the boundary; and
though the ma 1 may have cut ttie tree
with mi li iousness,run i itoat am,even
ii it blocx his way, yet the tanner inus
pav the damage, though done contrary
to his positive order. In all these
eases the farmer ear. compel the hired
man to pay him back if lie has any
thing to nav it with; but this is rarely
the case uiiless the farmer keeps back
his wages and only settles when his
time expires.
VALUE OF COMPOST. —Farmers who
kuow tne value of compost, and know
iiow to make it, increase their manure
pile. In this way hundreds of loads
are made" annually, the material being
gathered-on ihi premises, such as for
est leaves, cornstalks, (including the
roots,) weeds, \i les, loaui from lenee
corners, muck from ponds and ditches,
occasional sprinkling of lime through
the mass, layers of barnyard manure,
and thus build up oblong squares anu
let them remain over winter.
CULTIVATED WHEAT AND HESSIAN
FLY. —It is now a well established ikct
that the Hessian fly is much less troub
lesome on wheat that is sown in drills,
between which the cultivator is passed
now and then during the early growth
of the grain. Two fields of wheat
growfng side by side, one of which is
cultivated and the other not, but alike
in all other respects, see n strong proof
of the truth of the above statement.
SOME of the best butter makers in
England use for every twenty-four
pounds of butter one teaspoonful of
soda and alum nrngled together at the
• time of churning, and put into the
churn. This is for the purpose of ren
dering the butter firm and solid during
warm weather.
An Arctic Noon.
Ooe day Nordenskiold and I walked
out to the end of the Ice, to enjoy near
at hand a sight of the waves dancing in
joyous motion and the ice blocks swim
ming quiety above. Our way was over
the ice and walking was exceedingly
difficult. When we reached the far
thest part of the archipelago, we threw
ourselves down to rest and take a view
of our surroundings. They were sur
prisingly grand. The so'uth-wcstern
part of the vault of beayen was lighted
by the clrcum-polar moon. In the flood
of light which streamed out from her
there swam some few long drawn out
clouds. Right to the south near the
horizon there was visible a faint red
dish glimmer, clearly and sharply
distinguishable from the white moon
light. Here the sun had gone down,
when the long polar night had begun;
it was the last glimpse of this light tnat
we now saw. In the south-east some
few rays of light changing every mo
ment in strength, color and position—
in fact, the aurora in the form it com
monly takes here—raised themselves
toward the horizofl. Above our heads
glows the pole star, everywhere over
the sky sparkle stars, darting stronger
or weaker differently colored lights
and on the north or north-eastern hori
zon rest the deep darkness of the polar
night. I will not try to paint the rich
charming play of color and the chiaro
scuro full of effect. Add to this glo
rious heaven a wide stretching sea glit
tering in the moonlight, the white sur
face of Mussel Bay with three vessels
standing out against it, the dark, pre
cipitous fell sides that surround it, and
the little building on land from whose
every window lamp-light streams
and the main points of the panorama
are enumerated. It is difficult to be
lieve that noon is approaching; it might
rather be taken for evening, a quiet
winter evening in the country. A grave
stillness and tranquility. Only now
and then the deep silence is broken by
a low grating sound. It is heard in the
direction of the edge of the ice, and Is
produced by the rubbing of the ice
blocks against each other when they
|;e moved by the swell.

BREAD MAKING. —It Is sullioieiit, a>
is done Europe, to thoroughly mold
and kne id the dough In but once, j u in
the pans, carefully watch Us rismg,
aud, when at the right point, to bake
it, securing sweet bread and not that
from sour dough 'which can never be
made sweet. This, of course implies
no use of soda, since it is not needed
when the dough is sweet, ami since no
soda can restore the natural sweetness
of the grain. Jf the dough becomes
sour it is beeause the fermentative
process has proceeded too far, approach
ing the putri 1 icttve stage, a i actual
waste of no iuconsiderabte per cent ol
the nourishment.
While some may question the pro
priety of this fermentation, all will
concede the fact that it should not be
raised so much as to become even
slightly acid, since sour br >ad is not
only unpalatable but positively harm
ful. And siuoe a large {Hiriof the food
of the middle class must consist of
bread (we might live quite well ou
bread and fruits), it is importaut not
only that it shall be agreeable to the
taste, but contain as much as possible
of the bone and muscle elements to
promote the health, especially ol the
young.
THK SLEEPING ROLL. —The rolls
which are oiten attached to ihe back
of a rooking or easy chair to rest the
head against, are sometimes made of
silk patchwork or of euibroided, linen,
as well as o* wool knitted or ehrochet
ed. They may be eh roe he toil in strips,
like an aighau, aud iu the same stitch;
or they may be knitted in strips, or
they may be knitted in oue piece or
crocheted in lose chains, with some
bright silk for a lining. Measuro the
width of your chair-back and make a
stout linen bag, drawn up at each end,
of a length corresponding to that width.
The diameter depends upon the mopnt
of support you wish to give to the
sleeper's head. Then stuft the bag
with the best hair, mid after closing it,
put 011 the cover, knitted and crochet
ed to match the roll in si/8. Draw up
the cover at the ends and Diit 011 tassels,
and strings to fasten the roll to the
chair.
A SUPERIOR OMEI ET. —Beat six £gg*
very light, the whiles to a stiff lroth
that will stand alone, the yolks to a
smooth thick batter, add to the yolks a
small cuptul ol milk then the pepper
and salt to season properly; lastly,
stir In the whites lightly. Have ready
in a hot frying-pan a go;>d lump of but
ter. When it hisses pour in your mix
ture gently and set over a clear lire. It
should cook 111 eight or ten minutes at
most. I)o not stir, but contrive, as the
eggs "set," to slip a broad-bladed knife
under the omelet to guard against
burning at the bottom. When done lay
a bot-dish, bottom upward, on the top
of the pan, and upset it and bring the
browned side up. Eat soon or it will
not be so. light. A grand dish for
breakfast. *

SUBSTITUTE FOR GRUEL. —A delicious
substitute tor gruel is made as fol
lows : One ounce of rice, one ounce of
sago, one ounce of pearl barlev; put
three pints of water and boil gently for
three hours, when the liquid should lie
reduced to a quart. Strain it in exactly
the same manner as groat gruel, and
flavor wilh wine, brandy, or anything
el3e that may be suitable. If made a
little thicker—say, with an ounce and
a half of each ingredient to three pints
of water —a jelly will be produced,
which may be eaten cold with sugar,
fruit, syrups or preserves.
RHUBARB JEI.LY. —Take one rhubarb,
wipp it with a clean wet cloth, peel it
and cut it into pieces an inch long. To
each pound of rhubarb add three-quar
ters ot a pound of white sugar. Put it
to boil for about ten minutes or until
the juice is well drawn. Strain it into
a preserving pan, let it boil quickly
until it clings to the spoon, skim it and
put it into jam pots or molds. The
quickest way to know if it will set is
to drop a little on a plate to cool.

A SERVICEABLE WHITEWASH. —Lime
slacked with a solution ol salt in water
and then properly thinned with skim
milk, from which all the cream has
been taken, makes a permanent white
wash for out-door work, and it is said
renders the wood incombustible. It is
an excellent wash lor preserving
shingles and lor all farm buildings.
EXCELLENT BREAD CAKE.— One cup
butter, two cups brown sugar, one-half
cup raisins stoned and chopped, one
and one-half cups dough as raised for
bread: mix thoroughly and let it rise
in the pans before baking. .Spices of
all sorts.

honey, 10 pounds; borax, 2 pounds;
and powdered benzine, 1 pound.
WHITE GRUBS —A half gill of soft
soap and water, one part of soap to
twelve of water, poured at the roots of
cabbage plants, is recommended as
sure death to white grubs.
