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."

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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!"

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.
