FARM AMD GARDEN.
SUPPLYING WATER FOR FARMS.— The
general sinking of the water level, as
indicated, by the subsidence of rivers
and lakes, the drying up of marshes,
bogs, and brooks, the disappearance of
►prings.aud the groater depth required
to reach water in wells, all indicate
that some other means must soon be
resorted to ior the purpose of supply
ing farms In the west with water for
he use of the household and for stock.
Considerable has already been accom
plished toward supplying large farms,
especially those devoted to dairying,
with water obtained from artesian
-wells, or raised from ordinary wells by
wind power, very little, however, has
been done toward supplying water to
farms by cooperutve effort. This meth
od is now adopted, not ouly in all con
siderable cities, but in many large
towns. It results in supplying the in
habitants with better water than eaa be
obtained from ordinary wells, and in
lurnlshing it in larger quantities and
at a smaller expense. It also saves all
the labor of raising water, which is
considerable even ii pumps oi the best
construction be employed. It affords
a supply which is not conditioned 011
the state of a particular well, or the
111V&us of iatsing its contents.
The expense of conveying water in
pipes of wood or iron laid under ground
is much smaller lhau moat person sup
pose. in a majority of cases a farmer
can purchase and lay a pipe acrosa liis
premises for half the sum it will cost to
dig the w ells he requires, supply them
with pumps and keep them \u repair.
Once obtained and put in position.thoy
will-ordinarily last a lifetime. When
there is an artesian well in the vicinity
the proprietor of it is generally entire
ly willing to dispose of the surplus
water it aff'oids, and which is often a
burden to him. Where there la a run
ing stream the water lu it may be
raised to be a considerable elevation
by means of a hydraulic ram. Water
may be raised from a lake, river, or
stream ly a single wind-null in suffi
cient quantities to supply a dizen
(arms. Not unlrtqueuiiy there are
tpiiDgson hill-aides from which wa
ter may be conveyed 10 several farms
in the vicinity. Spring water is ordi

driaking and for dairy purposes. Ii

FISH IN SEASON.— Codfish is hest IN
mid-winter, and is brought in al ve in
the wells ef vessels. In boiling cod
fish it should be closely covered and
simmer rather than boil. Ten minutes
is allowed to every pound of fish, and
it must be tvken out Immediately when
done, and served with drawn butter or
oyster sauce. For broiling, a cod
weighing a pound and a half is best,
served with melted butter. Daniel
recipe for codfish chowder
is as follows: Four tablespoonfuU of
onions fried with pork; one quart of
boiled potatoes well smashed; one and
a half pounds of sea biscuit broken;
one te&spoonful of thyme, and one of
summer Savory ; half a bottle of mush
room catsup; half a nutmeg grated; a
few cloves, raaoe, aud allspice; a six
pound cod-fish cut in siloes three
quarters of an Inch thick; twenty-five
ovsters; a little black pepper, and
slices of lemon. The whole to be put
lu the kettle, covered with an inch of
water, boiled for oue hour. Mr. Web
ster added a bottle of port or claret,
which it would probably have been
better for Mr. Webiter if be had kep
ou of his chowder habitually.
TOMATO Sou P. — A piece of leg of

skim off' all the fat. If your stock
should boil away too much add more
water, so as to have two quarts when
it. is strained. To the two quarts ef
stock add a cau of tomatoes a large on
ion stuck with six cloves, a carrot, a
small turnip, half a dozen allspice, a
tablespoonful of salt, and half a tea
spoouiul uf white pepper. Let it boil
slowly for two hours, and then add a
tablespoonful ol fiour creamed in a
tablespoonful of butter; let it boil Ave
minutes longer, take out the onion

through the colauder, rubbing it with

BEEFSTEAK STEW. — Take some finely
chopped beet tat or a piece of butter,
heat it in the stew-pau, aud sprinkle
some flour in; brown, and add warm
water; place in this gravy the steak,
which must be a thick cut and in one
piece, if possible; add salt, pepper,
(whole black,) three cloves, a small
piece of mace, and a bay-leaf, if It Is
handy; close up tight and let gently
simmer for three-quarter of an hour,
shaking the stew now aud then; after
that tune put in two tsblespoonfuls of
port wine, if you admit of wines beiag
used in cooking, and oue spoonful of
mushroom catsup, or any dark sauce,
and allow the stew to simmer another
quarter of an hour. It should then be
done and be served upon a hot dish,the
g~avy being poured over it.
CHICKEN PUDDING.— Cut up a pair
of young chickens, put ihcm into a
stewing-pan with enough water to
cover, adding two tablespoonfuls of
butter; pepper and salt to taste: let it
stew geutly until about half cooked;
take out the chickens and let them cool
pouring the gravy into a separate dish.
Prepare a batter of a quart of milk,six
weli-beaten eggs, a tablespoonful of

the batter,then another layer of chick
en an l more batter, and so on, having
batter on top. Bake for oue hour or
even longer, in a hot oven. Beat an
egg into the gravy reserved, let it boil
up and send to the table to be served

HARASSING DREAMS. —An unnatural
excitement of the brain and nervous
system is the direct cause of sleepless
ness. as also of harassing nocturnal
dreams. VEGETINK has a peculiarly
soothing effect in all sucli cases, when
taken just before going to bed.
STARCH POLISH. —The old receipt of
smrmgTtm srarcti wtth s bit of
candle is not nearly so good, in the
opinion of an experienced laundress,
is a much cheaper plan. She uses
mutton suet instead of wax; it makes
the starch firmer. Before roasting or
boiling your joiptol mutton, cut off
whatever suet you want from it.
"Render" it in a tin cup and set it
aside in a jaw; it will keep six months
or longer. The lat about the kidney
in a hind quarter is the firmest and
best. When you want thick starch for
collars and shirt bossoms, take four
tablespoonfuls of starch to one quart
of water, and a piece of the clear suet
about tne size of a walnut. This
makes a good quart of starch.
A LITTLE English work, "Sleep and
-how to obtain it," says that insomnia
is not so dangerous as commonly sup

work he may know that he is under
too great a mental strain. The author's
plan of inducing sleep Is to reckon up
friends and acquaintau es whose name
