AG RPCULTURE. THE HORSE'S BREAST.— Supposing the team to be in the very best possible plight for a heavy season's work, if a baaly fitted collar be put Into use, the favorable condition referred to wi'i eouut lor no considerable suui as a factor in the spring's work. Who it is considered that every pound of Jarth moved by the plow or disturbed oy the harrow or seed drill, and e^ r y rod traversed by the reaper o- wagon, comes by power obtained °y direct pressure upon the horse's breast, the importance of looking t J the surface which performs so a part, first, las-t and all the "ime, should be apparent, it is tb' heavy and con stant pressure upor the breast in plow ing that endang* I ' B the breast ot the horse. There i> let P of the pres sure, as in prilling the wagon, for in the latter case, when the load goes down an inline, the collar leaves the breast, gi' lll g a little respite from the pressure allowing the skin and hair to oart w liA its moisture, and the shoul ders -° take rest. But in plowing ur ssure ola collar is a grinding, heat £jd sweat producing process, and if its Surface is not absolutely sniwtb, and its texture the most even and pliable that it is possible to secure, the surface will soon show the effects, and your fitted horse is quite unfit for work. At the time of shedding the spring coat the horse is much more liable to collar gall than at any other time, because the skin is made sensitive by shedding the hair. Many farmers practice careful washing ot the breast, morning and evening, in cold salt water. It is be lieved that this —using a common phrase—hardens the skin. There can hardly be any doubt of its beneficial influence. By keeping the breast bathed in the manner named, and the surface of the collar smooth and clean, the breast can generally be kept clear of barm. Vet as stated, plowing Is the trying work, and during the season for this, unusual vigilance will be in order. It is only now and then that you find a collar-maker who in every respect makes a first class collar. Hunt this man out and buv of him. GRATE VINEGAR ANI> CIDER VINEGAR. —Vinegar from grapes may be made as follows: The wine Is stirred into a large tun which contains lees, and when thoroughly mixed is squeezed by pressure through cloth sacks into an iron-bound vat, whence, after stan ding some hours, it is drawn ofl into casks for fermenting. These casks have only a small opening at the top, and are kept at a Temperature ot 77 t<> SG degrees Fahrenheit. Alter four teen or fifteen days, the vinegar, now formed, is drawn off (cautiously, so as uot to disturb the sediment) into bar rels which contain birchwood chips. This clarities it, and alter standing a few days it may be syphoned ofl' into the casks in which it is to remain. The residue, containing "mother," is employed to ferment all the subsequent 1 quor by simply pouring the latter imo the cask that was used previously. To make vinegar from cider, the fol lowing recipe is recommended : Place in the cider-barrel a small piece of bread soaked in vinegar, or else a piece of sour dough. Add about a pint of vinegar, and set the barrel in a warm place (75 to S5 degrees Fahrenheit Malt will produce the same effect as the dough, and so will yeast or leau meat, 'lbe vinegar will clarify itself by settling, and on being drawn off from the top by means oi a syphon, a clear liquid is obtained. A good table vinegar may be obtained by dissolving three pounds of white sugar in a gal lon of water and fermenting with yeast. THE POULTRY YARD. —The value of pure bloods is now well established. This month is a good time to clear out the old mixed fowls aud procure a few specimens of one of the best sorts; both the pleasure and prolit of poultry raisiug will be increased by raising some one or more of the select brood. WASPS' nests are frequently ignited by some chemical action, supposed to be that of the wax upon the paper-like substances .of which the nests are form ed. Sponstaneous combustion of this nature Is believed to have been the cause of many mysterious fires In hay stacks and farmers' buildings. Maud s. This famous trotier is a higlily-bred mare, and wants to be humored. She will not stand harsh treatment, will not prove obedient under rough usage. Both Bair aud his wife made much 01 Maud S. They petted her, and treated her to apples and lumps of sugar. The result was that she will eagerly respond to their call. When jogging on the track at Chester Park the presence of Mrs. Bur near the rail at any time would cause Maud to turn iu that direction. All last winter the mare ran in a roomy box. In April she was put In front of a break-cart, and Mr. Bair drove her about the streets of Clifton and Cincinnati, and thus got her accustomed to the noise and bustle of the toiling world. He also harnessed her double, aud taught her to drive 011 either side. She always behaved well to the pole. She does not like blinds to her bridle, but will trot with any kind of a bit in her mouth. All she asks is that the driver shall not pull 011 the bit. She stands 15:2 forward, and is plump sixteen hands behind. Her weight is 960 pounds. In her races this year she has been driven to a fifty one pound sulky, but Bair is having made lor her a sulky weighing forty live pounds. She wears a fifteen and a half ounce shoe forward, and a nine ounce shoe behind. She also carries four-ounce toe-weights. For twoweeks after her arrival at the Queen City, she will be turned at 5 o'clock every evening into a six-acre grass lot, and be allowed to run until 9 o'clock. This will keep her hair from fading under the sun's rays, and it will cool her out tho roughly. After two weeks run at grass she will be led every day lor two weeks behind a break-cart, so padded that she cannot hurt herself. She will then be in condition to order at short notice for a fast mile, should Mr. Vanderbilt de sire to see one on his return trip to America in October. Bair says he had hoped to give her a record of 1 before the close of the season. At Rochester she trotted solely on her courage. "He thinks she can go to the half-mile pole in 1:03." THE midnight maiauder should nc be banished from our dwelling any more quickly than should a Cough or Cold of any kind be driven lrom the system. Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup quietly yet positively places all Colds under its control. Price 25 cents. DOMESTIC. BIKCH BASKET KOK FERNS. —The fol low ing experiment has been success fully tried, and made as pretty a fern ery as any one could wish. Take a piece ot white birch bark about half a yard square, and cut in each corner a slit not more than three inches long, running from the corner toward the middle of the piece. Then lap the edges of the slit completely over each other, thus forming the side of the basket, which will be about two inches and a half high. To fasten It, sow it through several times with waxed thread ; unbleached is best, as it scarce ly shows. Each corner must he done in the same way. A narrow band of the bark is fasteued all round the upper edge of the basket to hold It firmly together. The handle is a long strip measuring eighteen inches In length, and two and a half In width, and mud he securely fasteued to each side of the basket, sewing It In the same manner as the corners. It Is now ready for the ferns, First fill the bot tom with the rleh leaf-mould found in the woods, and then place in the plants, choosing the smaller ones, as they seem to thrive better than the larger. Se lect as great a variety as possible, not forgetting the lovely Maidenhair, also some of the trailing vines that are touud in the woods, of which one of the prettiest Is the Partridge Vine, with Its bright red berries. Winter green also thrive with the rest of these plants, and is very beautiful, with its dark-green leaves and the snowy blos soms it bears before the scarlet berries form. A thorough watering every morning is all the care necessary tor it, and its beauty will fully repay one for the slight trouble of making and taking care of it. "Don't Know Uitlf Their Vlne " " They cured me of Ague, Bilious ness and Kidney Complaint, as recom mended. i had a half bottle left which I used for my two little girls, who the doctors and neighbors said could not be cured. 1 would have lost both ol them one night if i had not given them Hop Bitters. They did them so much good I continued their use until they were cured. That is why I say you do not know half the value of Hop Bitters, and do not recommend them high enough."—B., Koohester, N. Y. See other column.—Am. Rural Home. To TAKEOFF IMPRESSIONS OF LEAVES, PLANTS, KTC. —Take half a sheet of rtne good paper, and oil it well with sweet oil; let it soak through, rub oft' the superfluous oil with a piece ot paper, and let it hang in the air to dry; after tlie oil is pretty well dried in, take a lighted candle or lamp, and move the paper slowly over it, in a horizontal direction, so as to touch the flame, till it is perfectly black. When wishing to ake off impressions of plants, lay the plant caretully on the oiled paper, and a piece of clean paper over it, and rub with the linger, equally in all parts, for halt a minute; then take up the plant, and be careful not to disturb the order of the leaves, and place it 011 the book or paper on which It is wished to have the impression; then cover it with a piece of blotiug-paper, and rub it with the linger tor a short time, and there will remain an impression supe rior to the finest engiaving. The same piece of black paper will serve to take off a great number of impressions. The great excellence of this method is, that the paper receives the impression of the most minute veins and hairs. The impression may afterwards De colored according to nature. To PCRIFY THE AIK OK A SICK UHAM BKR.—Take six drachms of powdered nitre, and the same quantity of oil of yitriol; mix them together by adding to the nitre one drachm of the vitriol at a time; placing the vessel in which you are mixing it on a hot hearth or plate ot heated iron, stirring it with a glass rod, a tobacco-pipe, &c. Then place the vessel in the contaminated room, moving it about to different parts of the room. EXCELLENT DEN TIEKICK. Dissolve two ounces of borax in three piuts of hot rain water. Add to it one table spoonful of spirits of camphor stirred into one tablespoonful of puverized sugar, to prevent it from curdling. Before quite cold, add one ounce of tincture ol myrrh. One wineglassful, added to half a pint ot water, and ap plied with a brush, as a gargle, will preserve and beautify the teeth, and prevent the adhesion of tartar and the softening of the gums, arrest decay and keep the teeth in good condition. YEGI TINE. —The great success of th< Vegeiine as a cleanser and purifier ol the blood is shown beyond a doubt bj the great numbers who have taken i! and received immediate relict, witb such remarkable cures. FIG-PUDDING. — C .op half a pound oi figs very finely; mix them with one-fourth pound of coarse sugar, a tibiespoonful of molasses, four table spoonfuls of milk, half a pound of flour a quarter of a pound of suet, an egg, and a pinch of grated nutmeg; put the pudding in a buttered mold, and boil live hours. To COOK TURNIPS.— Pare, slice, cut in dice an inch square, boil until near ly done, in as little water as possible; toone quart of turnips, add one table spootiful of sugar, salt to make palata ble; when they are bo led as dry as possible add two or three spoonfuls of cream and a beaten egg, and serve. Excellent. LADIES who do their own work will find that in addition to a long apron a pair of calico sleeves with a rubber cord In the top is a dispenser of hap piness. One can slip them on over cuffs and nice dress sleeves, get tea and even wash the tea dishes without in juring the dress. WHEN washing tine laces do not use starch at all; in the last water in which they are rinsed put a little tine white sugar, dissolve it thoroughly, and the result will be pleasing. A CLAM shell is more convenient for scraping kettles and frying pans than a knife. It does the work in less time. Eighteen comets have been discovered since the year 1800, the largest number of which are microscopic. Science represents the talis ot the comets to be millions of miles in length. They of ten reach from the horizon to the zenith. There are several thousand so-called cornets known to exist in the heavens. Twenty Years a sufferer. Dr. R. V. PIERCE: Dear Sir —Twenty years ago I was shipwrecked on the Atlantic Ocean, and the cold and exposure caused a large abscess to form on each leg, which kept continually discharging. After spending hundreds of dollars with no benefit, I was persuaded to try your Golden Medical Discovery, and now, in less than three months after the first bottle, I am thankful to say I am com pletely cured, and for the first time in ten years can put my left heel to the ground. I am, sir, yours respectfully. WILLIAM RYDER. 87 Jefferson Street, Buffalo, Nd Y. WIT AND HUMOR. IT had been arranged that the family should spend Sunday afternoon at the Wood of Bullong: After spending an hour and three-quarters in her boudoir, m&dame issues, leading their child by the hand. The father casts a disgusted glance at the child and bursts out: "You don't catch nie going out with the young one rigged up like that; why, you've dressed It up out of all rhyme and reason—lt looks like a mon key, an organ-grinder's monkey." Bitter words are exchanged. The mo ther gets mad. The father shrugs his shoulders sullenly. The child cries. Finally it is arranged that the prome nade sh 11 take place. "All right," says the father, "I'll go. I suppose I've got to go—but uiliul what 1 say, now, that child looks like a monkey, H simian ape-like monkey." At the door they meet a friend oi the family, who pounces on the child and almost smoth ers it with kisses, crying: "Oh, you little darling! Your father's living Image!" A Wise Deacon " Deacon Wilder, I want you to tell me how you kept yourself and family well the past season, when all the rest of us have been sick so much, and have had the dectors visiting us so often." 44 Bro. Taylor, the answer Is very easy. I used Hop Bitters in time ; kept my family well ami saved the doctor hills. Three dollars' worth of it kept us well and able to work all the time. I'll warrant it has cost you and the neighbors one to two hundred dollars apiece to keep sick the same time." 44 Deacon, I'll use your medicine hereatter." ONE day our dog Towser was a lvln' In the sun a trine to sleep, but the llies was that bad he couldn't cos ho had to catch 'em, and blmeby a bee lit on his head and was working about like the dog was his'n. Towser he held Ills head still, and when the bee was close to his nose, Towser winked at me like he sed, you see what this buffer is doin'; he thinks 1 am a lily of the valley which Isn't opened yet, but you just wait till I blossom, aud opened his mouth very slow so as not to triten the bee, and the bee went into Towser s mouth. Then Towser shet his eyes and his mouth too, and had begun to tuake a peaceful smile wen the bee stung liun, and you never see a lily of the valley aek so In your life. X having been offended by a friend, sends him a challenge to fight with mothers-in-law. "With mothers-in-law?" says the other, perplexed. "Certainly. I will send my mother in-law to stay with you, and you send yours to spend the time with me, and the first man that bens for quarter will bo assumed to have been run through the body." "Not much," said his antagonist; "I apologize, humbly and respectfully." A SOLDIER 011 the cars perceives that the smoke from liis pipe is more or less obnoxious to an old lady opposite him. "Well, missus," he says, "1 suppose they don't smoke in your regiment." "111 my regiment they do," says trie old lady; "in my company, never." THE fact that Cragin & Co., Phila delphia, l'a., (Dobbins' Electric Soap.) confidently base their claims on the merits of the soap, and only ask a trial, speaks volumes. We know that the soap tells a good story. Try it. HE opened the door cautiously and poking in his head in a suggestive sort of way as if there was more to follow, inquired: "Is this the editorial rink tULU V "The what? my friend." "Is this the rinktum —slnktuni— sanctum, or some such place where the editors live." "This is tiie editorial room, yes, sir. —Come in." "No, I guess I won't come in. I wanted to see what a rinktum was like, that's all. Looks like our garret, only wuss. Good day." "YES, Madame, I was only twenty years old when my father —determined to make me leave Paris and return to the country—cut ofl'my supplies, and left me fifteen francs a month." "And did you manage to live 011 that ?" "Yes, madame; not only did I man age to live 011 that paltry sum, but to get Into debt as well!" A GENTLEMAN informed by the bill on the window of a house, that "apart ments were to be let," knocked at the door, and, attended by a pretty ternale, took a survey of the premises. "Pray, my dear," said he smiling, "are you to be let with these lodgings?" "No," replied the girl, with vivacity, "but I am to be let alone." THOUSANDS of persons who are bald to-day might have full heads of hair If they would • only use Carboline, a de odorized extract of petroleum, which is the only preparation ever discovered that will really do this AT the morgue: "My mother-in-law," says a visitor to the official in charge, "disappeared three days ago, and has not been heard of since. I had hoped she might he here." "Describe her, if you please, so that if necessary she ean be identified." "She stutters awfully—you'd recog nize her easily by that. A VISITOR enters a French news paper ollice, and Is greeted politely by the office boy; "If monsieur comes to light a duel he will have to be kind enough to call again; all our editors are already engagid for to-day." "ERNEST, why have you not sent to the Salon, this year?" "Alas! 1 was compelled to eat my model." "What! ! !" "A still life—a plate of game." AN acquaintance of Mr. Payne's once informed him that her daughters were going to 'he theatre to see Shake speare's "Turning of the Screw." IT is the hardest thing in the world to find a man to run for office in Tur key. The government has nothing left to steal. THE first almanac was printed in 1460. Copies of it are hard to get now.

Mi jor \'aujel, in ills history of the Danish-Norwegiitn Army, which lias just issued from the press, tells at length the story of Field Marshal Count vou Moltke's early military career, lleluiuth Carl Ueruliard von Moltke was one of a number of young otilcers who in the yearlb22 sought aim obtained the Royal permission to en ter for a time into foreign military service. Von Moltke became a Danish "Land-cadet" in 1814, and commenced service wltii the small annual pay of fifty Danish relclisthlers. Shortly afterward, however, lie was admitted into the privileged ranks of the so called "I'age cadets," when his pay was a ivauced to the sum of three hun dred thalers of the Danish mint lrom the Court Treasury, and tlie more valuable privilege of receiving educa tion. In 181 M Moltke was made an of tieer, and appointed to a lieutenancy in the Oldenburg regiment. After three years of service, he obtained permis sion, as we lmve already said, to enter for a season into foreign military ser vice, in order to complete his educa tion as a Danish otlieer. lie was very poor, and when the permission was given iiiin, lie begged at the same time to be allowed a grant of three months' pay as "travel money." King Freder lek VI., however, thought that he had been sufficiently gracious to the young officer, and replied that no money grant would be given to those Danish otlicers who were seeking foreign ser vice. Moltke, in his written applica tion to his Royal master, which is still extant, made the now memorable pledge "If his Majesty will concede my request 1 trust that f shall acquire such knowledge and capacity in the Prus sian service as shall enable nie here after to repay tlis King and Denmark." Here is indeed another strange irony of history. If the King hud granted the young man's very small request it Is not probable that the Danish officer would have become Field-Marshal of Prussia and the German Kmpire. It is a curious speculation what issue might h i.ve resulted from the bchles wig-Uolstein contlict if the greatest strategist of the age had remained in the service of that little Suite in which he began bis career as a soldier and in which he proposed also to end It.
