AGRICULTURE.
WHAT NBXT?—A California inventor
has made a machine for pressing and
drying potatoes so that they will keep
for years, yet preserve their natural
flavor, No chemicals are used in the
oneratian of curing, everything being
done by a simple machine capable of
pressing six hundred bushels of pota
toes In twenty four hours. The ma
chine not only presses the potatoes, but
lays them on a tray in a concave form
with the hollow side down. After the
pressure they are put into a drying ap
paratus, where they remain for two
hourß,then they arc ground into coarse
meal resembling cracked rice. The
first shipment of these preserved pota
toes to Liverpool, last year, brought a
large profit. The average price of po
tatoes in San Francisco is about twen
ty-five cents a bushel. Dried, they
brought in England forty five shillings
a hundred weight, or at the rate of a
dollar and a half a bushel for green
potatoes, This year preparation has
been made for drying and shipping
large quantities. It is said that there
are three hundred thousand acres of
ui cultivated land on the western slope
of the Coast Range, near San Francis
co, especially adapted to potato grow
ing. The fogs and mists from the ocean
supply sufficient moisture, and the soil
yields bountifully. The only problem
heretofore has been where to market
the product.

THE moat widely spread and fata
disease of swine is the hog cholera.
Commissioner De Due claims that the
aggregate loss to farmers of the Uni
ted States from this source foots up
from $50,000,000 to $80,000,000 per an
num. Certain counties in the Western
States, he says, lose from $50,000 to
SBO,OOO from this disease alone Neg
lect and allowing the animals to look
after their subsistence on the ' root,
hog or die" principle, are no doubt the
leading causes of the devastation com
mitted by cholera, though we cannot
believe that the aggregate less amounts
to anything li e fifteen to twenty mil
lions of dollars.
PRESERVATION* OK FRUIT BY BURIAL
—Last January a California fruit dea
ler took one hundred lemons fresh
from the tree aDd buried them in the
ground to see how they would keep.
. Four months atter he dug them up and
found them in perfect preservation, as
sound and fresh and nice as the day
they were buried. Every one knows
how well potatoes keep when properly
covered by earth. Apples would do
cquslly well; and pes ibly the same
method may answer for grapes and
other more peiishable fruit. It would
not cost much to try a'few expc riments
in this din cticn, and success could not
fail to be advantageous.
ONlONS.— Onions require rich soil
and clean culture. A newly reclaimed
swamp is the best soil, and the longer
it is kept in cnions the better they sue
ie>d. The seed is sown in drills nine
to twelve Inches apart, and thinned
out to three or four inches in the rows.
High manuring is required, and, with
horoughly rotted stable manure, su
perphosphate of lime is the best artifi
cial help. .
Excessive drinking of water by farm
animals is said to increase the consump
tion of fat in the body. Too watery
fodder and too much drink are there
fore to be avoided, especially in fatten
ing, if we wish to attain the most ra
pid and abundant formation of tiesh
and fat.
PROFESSOR Riley says that kerosene
or oil of any kind is sure death to in
sects in all stages, and the only sub
stance with which we may hope to de
stroy the eggs, Oils will not mix di
rectly with water, but will mix with
milk, fresh or sour, and then nay be
diluted to any desired extent.
THE excessive dry summer and aut
umn of last year, oombined with the
fact that now the ground has so iar
teen well covered with snow, will no
doubt add greatly to the fertility of the
soil, and, other things being favor
able, we may reasonably expect good
crops.
CCKHANT CUTTINGS. The fall is the
best time to make and plant cuttings
of currants and ether shrubs. The
callus is formed at the end of the cut
tings, and the roots start during the
winter. The next best time is early in
the spring as soon as the frost is out of
the ground.
HOGS require free access to water in
the Summer t me. It they can have a
place to bathe or wallow in, it i 3 bene
ficial to them, as it cools and cleanses
the skin. Mud is no filth :itis a good
disinfectant and healthful. Sometimes
mud baths have been found useful
as medical treatment for sick people.
.PASTURES that have been fed a few
seasons will generally produce more,
milk, or make more milk, or make
more fat, than those which have been
newly seeded dtwa.
The Poison Habit.
But under all circumstances make a firm
stand against the poison habit. It is best
to call things by their right names. The
effect upon the animal economy of every
stimulant is strictly that of a poicon, and
every poisen may become a stimulant.
There is no bane in the South American
swamps,no virulent compound in the North
American drug stores—chemistry knows
no deadliest poison—whose gradual and
persistent obtrusion on the human organism
will not create an unnatura^ craving after a
repetition of the lethal dose, a morbid ap
petency in every way analogous to the
hankering of the toper after his favorite
tipple. Swallow a tablespoonful of lauda
num or a few grains of arsenious acid every
night. At first your physical conscience
protests by every means in its power;
nausea, gripes, spasms and nervous head
ache warn you again and agam; the strug
gles of the digestive organs against the fel 1
intruder convulse your whole system. But
you continue the dose, and nature, true to
her highest law to preserve life at any price,
finally adapts herself to an abnormal con
dition—adapts the poison at whatever cost
of health, strength and happiness. Your
body becomes an opium machine, an ar
senic mill, a physiological engine moved by
poison, and perlorining its functions only
under the spur of the unnatural stimulus.
But bye and-bye the jaded system fails to
respond to the spur, your strength gives
way, and alarmed at the symptoms of
rapid delirium, you resolve to remedy the
evil by removing the cause. You try to
renounce stimulation, and rely once more
on the unaided strength of the vis vitse.
But that strength is almost exhausted. The
oil that should have fed the flame of life
has been wasted on a health-oansuming
fire. Before you can regain strength and
happiness your system must read apt itself
to the normal condition, and the difficulty
of that rearrangement will be proportioned
to the degree of the present disarrange
ment; the further you. have strayed from
nature the longer it will take you to retrace
your steps.
DOMESTIC.
SILK HANDKERCHIEFS AND THE DAN
GERS ATTENDING THEIR USE. —It seems
indispensable that a person In full
dress nowadays should carry a silk
pocket-handkerchief of a more or less
brilliant hue. Old and young of both
sexes a fleet this radiant appendage,
the varied hues of which are so brilliant
as to recall the altar paintings and
stained glass windew of the pre-Rap
haelite age. Brilliant colors, like the
reds, the blues, the yellows, the pur
ples and the pinks have been regar led
by eminent critics like Ruskln, as in
dicative of a pure state of morals in a
community than where the sober half
tints of grays and Quaker hues pre
vailed. Innocence loves bright hues,
while vice seeks the obscurity of twi
light shades. If this theory be cor
rect our pocket handkerchiefs are
about the only redeeming feature of
our color morality at present. It is sad
to reflect that tbey have nothing but
their fleeting dyes to recommend them.
They are flimsy and iusubstautial in
material and they won't wash. They
are dyed by dangerous poisons, and
every time they are applied to one's
nose, or lips, or eyes.a portion of their
malignant coloring matter is absorb
ed. If any one will wash one of those
gaudy pocket butterflies In tepid water,
('hey wont stand hot), it will be found
that sutlicient color is leuioyed to pois
on a cat or to destroy a large window
plant If watered with the dye in solu
tion. Many of the dyes are derived
from compounds of chromium, which
metal, by the way, receives its name
from the Greek chroma, color, OD ac
count of the beauty of the tints It pro
duces in combination. Others are de
rived from poisonous protosalts of
iron, prussiate of potash and dyes
equally poisonous. There is so much
rivalry to produce rich, bright colors
that the chemistry of the dyeing pro
cesses is not carefully supervised, or
well understood. Improper mordants
are applied, aud fast colors are conse
quently not produced. Some of the
headaches too common nowadays are
undoubtedly to be attributed to the
use of those bright colored handker
chief's,and when a physician is at a loss
to explain the cause of a fetble, dis
turbed and irritable state of the ner
vous system, a little inquiry would
probably disclose the Habitual use
of those gay handkerchiefs as the
source of the mischief. Mothers
should lie especially careful that in
fants are kept from sucking or chew
ing the alluring baubles,for with some
of the colors to be seen in the store
windows, one such familiarity in the
case of a baby would be fatal.
RUSTIC WORK BASKETS. —The foot
and frame are constructed of thorn or
other knotted sticks, heavily gilded.
The basket-shape portion has two lin
ings. The outer one, which should
be of dark rich satin, puffed, protrudes
itself saucily through the manifold
interstices. The inner ODS U arranged
in a similar manner, except tnat it is
titted to a fiat foundation, and should
be of some v, arm. bright hue, gathered
to a thick gold cord, making the ori-
than it would be if it ter
minated where the rustic work leaves
off, besides serving as a rest for the
exquisite cover which completes this
realfy elegant affair. This cover con
sists of a piece of cardboard of the pro
per sze to lit inside the rustic frame,
covered with satin of the dark shade
upon which is painted a landscape or
group of rustic ligures. The under
side should have the bright color of
the inner lining; while the picture
should have a frame composed of
double puffs of dark satin ; the outside
or border puffs should stand up richly
but the other ought to be rathei flat;
a loop of gold cord at each side forms
the handles. The French people use
a pretty style of the basket for trim
ming the knives, forks and silver trom
the luncheon table. The shape re
sembles a coal scuttle without a mouth
or lip, and has a division across the
center, so that the silver and cuttlery
may be kept apart. The scroll hands
rise on each side, ending with a loop,
through which passes a curved bar
bar with knobs to prevent its slipping
out of bounds.
CANADIAN JELLY CAKE.— Beat one
teacupful of white sugar and four
ounces of butter to a oreara; add the
yolks of three eggs, well beaten and
two tablespoonluis of milK. Stir into
the above one pound of flour, with
two teaspoonfuis ot cream tartar and
one of soda mixed in it. Last of all
add the whites of the eggs beaten to a
strong froth. Flavor with lemon es
sence, ana pour the batter into four
shallow tins like plates, and bake fif
teen minutes in a quick oven. When
cold, two cakes are placed on the top
of each other, with jelly or preserve
between. The cakes should be an inch
thick when baked, and served with
powdered sugar.
ORANGE PIE OR PUDDING.— One
pound of butter, one pound of sugar
teaten to a cream, one glass of brandy,
wine or rose water; ten eggs beaten to
a high froth; have two oranges and
boil the rind until it is tender; change
the water two or three times while it
is boiling, then beat it in a mortar
and squeeze the juice in,together with
the rind of one lemon grated and the
juice cf the same,mix all well together
with the other Ingredients, and bake
in a puff paste without an upper crust;
half this quantity is sufficient for two
ordinary-sized pies.
NEVER use anything but light blank
ets to cover the silk, The heavy, im
pervious counterpane is bad, for the
eason that it retains the exhalations,
from the pores of the sick person
while the blanket allows them to pass
through. Weak persons are invaria
bly distressed by a great weight of
bed-cloths, which often prevent the'r
getting any sound sleep whatever.
BRAZILIAN TEA DISH. —Take some
slices of bread about half an inch
thick, cut off all crust, steep the
bread in milk; when soaked through
cover each piece with beaten yolk of
egg, fry with butter a light brown,
then arrange the slices on a hot plate,
and lay on each piece a tolerably
thick covering of powdered sugar and
cinnamon well mingled.
OYSTER FRITTERS.— Drain them tho
roughly, chop fine, season with pep
per and salt. Make a batter of eggs,
milk and flour; stir the chopped oys
ters in this and fry in hot butter; or
fry them whole, euvelope in batter,
one in each fritter. In this case the
batter should be thicker than if they
were cnopped.

HUMOROUS.
A DETROIT groeer displayed a dozen
cakes of the clearest and nicest new
uipple sugar possible to make and as
he stood at his door acltzen halted and
looked at the sugar and queried :
'•New?"
"No, It's old."
"Make It yourself?"
"Yes."
"Adulterated ?"
"Yes."
"Shouldn't think it would be heal
thy."
"It isn't." y
"Then why do you want to sell It?"
"1 don't want to. I set It out here
so that a dray could cart it otf, aud
dump it on some vacaut lot-"
The citizen looked up aud down the
street, across the way, aud finally
said:
"I guess I'll take two pounds of
your warmed-up, adulterated old
sugar. If it was new 1 wouldn't touch
the stuff at any price. Please weigh
this cake."
He paid for the sugar and carried It
away, but lie looked like a man wtio
wanted to say something mean to
somebody.
"1 THINK I may be excused for a lit
tle show of pride in saying that 1 knew
when to quit Wall street," he observ
ed as an elevated train carried them
over that great thoroughfare.
"So you used to speculate?"
"Yes; 1 was on the street for seven
years."
"Made your pile, 1 suppose?"
"Yes; I made aud lust money the
same as the rest. At one time 1 could
draw my check for $83,000; that isn't
so bad ior a man who went Into Wall
street with only $lO in his pocket."
"And you knew where to quit?"
"Yes, sir."
"1 hat was when—when?"
"That was when 1 had euough left
to pay my fare to Eluiira and hire a
boy to carry my satchel up to my
father-in-law's hotel I" was the reply.
