KEEP THE RF.ST HEIFERS. —SAVING
heifer calves only from the best milk
ere, and then weeding out tlie poorest
of these, will toon lay the foundation
for a choice dairy herd . And let us
make the further important point, that
selecting a pure bred male from an es
pecially good milking strain, and then
selecting the heifer calves from the
best milkers, the following up this
of breeding for even ten years with
males from the same strain of blood of
the progeny becomes unified and inten
sified'to a degree of prepoutencj almost
equal to a thoroughbred. The dairy
man may then place a strong reliance
upon the milking quality of the future
progeny. He has thus moulded a breed
to suit his own .wants. When dairy
men shall proceed on this systematic
plan of growing their own dairy herds
we shall hear much less of the unpro
fitableness of the dairy. Of course
gr< at care must be taken to study the
w ants of these youug animals as to food
and shelter. Gqod tcod and care are
necessary to show the capacity of auy
stialuoi blood. The best blood will
soon deteriorate undeY unskillful feed
ing. The hciler calves from the best
milkers should be generously fed iroui
the teginuing with such- lood as will
grow the frame and muscles, conse
quently nitrogenous lood is most im
portant. Rkim milk, oil meal, wheal,
bran, oats barley and clover are all
good. They must always be fed with
n.o*e nitrogenous lood.
JUMPING CATTLE.—A correspondent
thus describes au improved yoke for
jumping cattle: "First put n piece
across the horns. Then have apiece
of hard wood beard, one-half or tliree
lourths inch thick and about three feet
long. Have a hole inserted in the bar
across the horns in such away that
when this liarti-wood strip is inst rted
iu ii, running out over the back as the
auimal naturally carries its head, the
j ear end w ill be just free of the back.
Drive three or lour shingle nails,
ground sharp, into this end, letting
ihem come through three-fourths of an
inch, so that as soon as the animal
makes AU eflort to raise his head to
Jump the fence, the nails will soundly
pilik his back, and he w ill be apt to
lrltk his tail and start lor some feed
that is easier to bcobtatmd- For cheap
ness and durability, this arrangement
Is untqualed. It weighs less then three
pounds: it is not In the way in travel
lngarouud, and when the animal lies
down it is on one side, as it is natuial
for the animal to throw its head oppo
site tide it Iks on. When they
are feeding. It ii upright iu the air. It
will keep the animal to whlch it is ap
plied w here he belongs, sure."
LITTLE THJNG-I K GREAT MOMENT. —
It is a tmall matter to take the horses
ecioss ihe field lor water; It seems to
cost nothing, yet if a farmer's time, or
that of lds hiied man is worth any
thing, it costs a gnat deal in theouuise
of a j ear. it is a unal! matter'to chop
each day's wood upon the day it i*
used, and thus have it all fresh; but
fifteen ininuiesiu harvest time is worth
moie than in January; besides, there
are vtstly more economical methods tf
making fire wood than with an axe. It
is a verj- little matter to tighten a loose
nut, but it sometimes cost li/e and limb
not to do it. A pear tree here, and a
peach tree, co6t so iittle that one Is in
clined to thiuk they are of no account,
but when the lruit is ripe they are ap
preciated. A single step lrum one room
to another is "'only one step," but the
thought of a stairway made out of
these steps during a lile time,is enough
to almost make a woman's back ache-
Lock well to the details, that the lit

Cair dirt, drift hay from the edges
ot the marshes, and a 1 reluse mailer

restaurateur, "for I kuow it was put
in bottle the day my grandfather was

sented, and the wine was brought in—
a Lottie so covered with cobwebs and
dirt that it looked more like a largo rat
than anything else. The "cradle"
was handled most caretully by the
sommelier, and the cork was drawn
with much ceremony. Imagine the
horror ot the poor restaurateur and
the hilarity of the customer when a fly
came buzzing out, rejoicing at having
'regained his liberty!
Another iact worth remembering is
that, no matter w hat you may ask for

"It's too far ofl' to guess—too early

"But 1 would like to know, a* I need

"So do I, but since the last election
I've quit the prognosticating business.
When it comes to a question of such
national Importance as paying for
those boots, 1 am thoroughly unreli
able; but I'll tell you what I'll do."
"1 am willing to take even a small
amount on account."
"So am I. That's just what I was
going to propose. There Is nothing
that affords me half so much pleasure
as to pay my debts. Now I propose to
make a partial payment. You lend me
ten dollars, and I'll make a fair divide
and let you have five dollars ou ac

The shoemaker says there Is alto

NEW YORK lias more fun out ot Its
transit lines than any other city in the
world. On the street railroads a high
wayman enters the cars at convenient
lutjrvals and robs the passengers; on
the elevated railroads they let a man
into the enclosure, and then the train
jumps out and leaves him. He grabs
the hand-rail and is jerked down on
somebody's head below. A man can
ride down town in the street cars anJ
be robbed, and go back In the elevated
train and bs maimed for lite. Ttausdo
the New York lin?s combine pleasure

"WHY my dear old fellow," said a

FISH FlK. —Take a pound of any
cooked fish, very carefully pick from
the bone, and mix it. with a sauce, as
follows: B ill the bones in n small
quantity of water for twenty minutes,
aud wheu cold mix a gill of liquor,and
stir it over the fire until It thickens;
add two ounces of butter; keep stir
ring rapidly until well mixed in; take
the sauce off the fire, mix iu au egg, a
large teaspoonful of essence of an
chovy, the same quantity of lemon
Juice, a large piucli of salt, and a small
one of cayenne pepper. The sauce
should be very thick, and souio care
will be required iu stirring it over the
fire. Mix the picked fish and the
s.iuoe together; put a layer of Anelv
mushed potatoes at the bottom of a tart
dish, then all the fish, and over tills
auother layer of potatoes. Smooth
the top over noatly, aud bike iu a
moderate even for twenty inluutes. If
preferred, the potatoes can be spread
iu a bright tlu dish, tho fish be placed
hign iu the centre of It, and then be
covered over with the potatoes.
To Cl'Vaksb DRirpixoa.—A very

FRIED OYSTERS. —To fry them la one
of the best ways to spoil good oysters;
but many cooks will so serve them,and
many people like them: for these the
following advice ia seasonable and
reasonable: Forbid peremptorily the
use of hog's lard for oyster frying.
Even the most refined hog's lard is
still too gross and rank to be applied
to sc gamey and delicate meat as the
oyster. Fry them only In the very
best of sweet oil. Avoid another pre
vailing mistake of frying too much;
fry not to a dark brown, but only to a
iic?i golden brown. The former course
tends to make the oysters tough,while
the plan of frying only to a deep rich
yellow, leaves them lar more tender
with a much higher oyster flavor.
PICKLED MAKTINAS. —Put three-gal
lons of martlnas In very strong brine,
keep covered for ten days, then wash
them in cold water, and put them In
vinegar to stand ten more days; then
drain and put them in the jar intended
for them. In three pints of vinegar
scald a large handful of scraped horse
radish, one cup of allspice, one-half
cup ot black pepper, one cup of gin
ger, one-half cup or black mustard,
three-large spoonfuls of cloves, all
beaten, three onions sliced, one poil of
red pepper, three pounds of brown su
gar ; pour it over the matiums, and fill
up with cold vinegar.
FRICASSEE OK CALF'S TONGUE. —Boi*

cupful of your soup or other gravy;
simmer half an hour, covered tightly;
take up the tongues aud keep them
warm; strain the gravy, thicken, put
In four or five thin slices of lemon
from which the peel has been taken ;
boil one minute, and pour over the

OIL marks on wall paper, or the
marks where inconsiderate people rest
their heads, are a sore grlei to good
housekeepers, but they can be removed
without much trouble. Take pipe-clay
or fuller's earth, and make Into paste,
about as thick as rich cream, with cold
water; lay it on the stain gently,
without rubbing it in; leave It on all
night. It will be dry by morning,
when it can be brushed ofl, and unless
an old stain, the grease spot will have
disappeared. If old, renew the appli

WHEN velvet has been wet and be

ning the modulus of elasticity,using a
very large number of specimens in his
trials. lie found that deflection of
timber heating a load and supported at
the extremities Is very nearly propor
tional to the load, oven far beyond the
customary limits of strain, and that
the modulus Is very nearly con u tant
for all moderate defleotlous. When
higher loads (as one four.b or ono
eighth the maximum) wn lmpr>sad
for considerable time, as ton or twen'y
minutes, the deflection gridually In

Prof. Thurston drew the following
conclusions: The elasticity of yellow
pine timber, such as la usually used In
construction, is very variable, the mo
dulus vaiylng from 1,000,000 to 3 000,-
000, the average being about 51,000.000
In small sections, aud a little ab >ve
1,500 000 In large timber; the highest
xa'ues are glwn as often by green a*
by t-eas-meU timber; the density of the
wood dees not de e mine the mo lu us,
the figure varying sometimes luv rsely
as the density, even where the amount
of seasoning was alike; a high m nlulus
usually accompanies high tenacity and
great transverse strength ; the ies s
tance offered to transvorse stresses Is
greatest where the Hues of gralu are
verticil. Prof. Thurston recommends
the designing aud constriO lug en
gineer to adopt a mo lerate value of
the modulus in proportioning a work,
and by careful Inspection and test to
secure the rejection of all material
which Is not ot good quality.
