FRUIT NOTES. —The climate and soil of
our country afford unequaled facilities for
the cultivation of trait. A rich treasure
lies within the reach ot its inhabitants in
the profusion of delicious kinds which suc
cessive months may be made to supply.
And yet but few have availed themselves
fully of these advantages. While travers
ing our country, neat comfortable homes
are seen everywhere interspersed, and plen
ty is indicated by loaded orchards and
abundant harvests. And yet how few of
the prosperous owners are aware, fully, of
the rare delicacies their fertile lands are
capable of yielding. Apples of choice se
lections including the early harvest, the
Fall and Winter varieties can be grown to
last through the year. Peaches in rich
profusion from the loaded boughs, the mel
low shower can be obtained for ten sue
cessive weeks. Plums, rich, tuiey and
bloom-dusted may be had fresh from the
tree from early wheat harvest until the
ground freezes in Autumn.
Among the thousand varieties of pears,
that have fruited in this country, selections
can be obtained that ripen trom early har
vest througn Summer and Fall until mid
winter. How few there are that practi
cally know that a whole yearly circle of
fruit is within their reach, beginning with
strawberries, raspberries and cherries for
early summer including plums, apricots,
peaches, and nectarines for Summer and
Autumn and closing with high flavored
pears, apples and grapes extending the
season of ripening through Autumn and Win
ter and far into the succeeding Spring.
We are pleased to announce that the number
< icultivators is rapidly increasing who may
nlace upon their tables many delicious sorts
on almost any day of the year. It is ,well
known that the man who plants trees,
plants for nimseif as well as for his chil
dren. By bad management trees may not
prove a source of profit to the planter.
Young trees surrounded with weeds and
gralts could not be expected to floui ish.
No good farmer would expect to raise corn
in nis meadow. The fruit tree wheu plant
ed under such circumstances cannot be ex
pected to thrive. Trees plaffted in a rich
mellow soil prudently and judiciously cul
tivated will extend their branches under
copmus loads of fiuiL The profits cf fruit
culture is beginning to be well known. By
oruinary management good apple orchards
yield a better return than the best farm
crops. We would recommend to those that
own lands and have uo orchard to plant
one this Spring.
CHAT ABOUT CHICKENS. —It isimpoitart
thai poultry have ckan and healthy quar
•cra, pure water, lime and gravel. Char
coal is also purifying. Bear iu mind you
are preparing the ingredients which are to
form your own food, and purity promotes
nealth. In preparing food for your fowls
let the vegetable predominate. Corn tends
to solidify the flesh unless ground or crush
ed and scalded.
Now that vegetables are scarce, save al!
the table scraps; also potato peelings, which
yon can cook in your dish water, if you
don't use ssup in it —otherwise use pot liq
uor or pure water. Throw in your beets,
turnips, etc., if handy; cook till tender,
throw in the table scraps, a little salt, a
pod of red pepper, and thicken up with
meal or wheat bran, and set away for use.
You will find that your fowls will eat food
thus prepared with energy, and when so
fed theii flesh will be sweet, juicy and nu
tritious, but not so fat as when fed entirely
upon food thus prepared. The feathers of
our high-bred fowl 6 are almost as good as
those of ducks or geese. Pick them while
the fowl is yet w arm; the largest feathers
can be saved by clipping of the quill ends.
I pick all my Flvmouth Rocks thus, and
coreider them thus managed a real sav
ings bank. Who can say there is no com
fort, and entertainment, too, to be deriveo
from chickens?
WHI SOME AER x va .a.— L.carn is allow
ed to mold and s[ oil. Silver spoons are
used to scrape kettles. The scrubbing
biush is left in the water. Nice handled
knives are thrown in hot water. Brooms
are never hung up. Dish-cloths are throwD
where mice can destroy them. Tubs and
barrels are left in the sun to dry and fall
•part. Clothes are left on the line to whip
lo pieces in the wind. Pie crust is left to
•our instead of making a few tarts for tea.
Dried fruit is not taken care of in season
and becomes wormy. Vegetables are
thrown away that would make a good din
ner. The cork is left out of the syrup jug
and the flies take possession. Bits of meat
are thrown out that would make excellent
hash for breakfast. Ctffie, tea and spices
are left to aland open andiese their strength.
Pork spoils for the want of salt and because
the brine wants scalding.
GROUND peas or beans are economical
tor feeding owing to the great saving they
effect. Farmers are tempted ta part with
them at $2.10 a bushel, and they often
bring more than that sum; but if we will
stop and reflect that this meal, mixed half
and-h&lf with cornmeal, will enable us to
dispense with one-third tbe quantity of
hay, a great saving is made through the
winter. For young calves nething caD
equal it. If the farmer has no convenience
for grinding them tbe peas or beans can be
cooked into a "mash" in the ordinary way
and if thus given liberally to stock, espe
cially to the younger portion, will push
them rapidly forward. Pigs will grow
fatter on it than on anything else. Yonug
heifers become matured several months
sooner.
A LARGE business is done in drying
sweet potatoes in evaporating machines.
The potatoes are peeled and sliced by ma
chinery, and their moisture removed by
exposure to currents of hot air in the evap
orators. The big potatoes are sometimes
ground into flour. By this means the diffii
culty often experienced in keeping sweet
potatoes through the winter is entirely ob
viated.
THE least expensive and most sensible
way to ged rid of bowlders is to dig a hole
close by the side of one, about two feet
deeper than the diameter of the stone, dig
ging partially under the edge. Then with
a lever oa the opposite side of the bowlder
it is easy to oil the rock into the hole,
where it will be out ot the way.
To remove waits from horses: Equal
parts of spirits of turpentine and pure olive
oil, well shaken together and rubbed on
warts daily until they disappear. One who
has tried the above recipe says with it he
' removed within two weeks' time 50 warts;
to-day the animal shows signs where they
have been, but never has had a wart since.
THE American Garden says that the so
called Italian varieties of the onion, which
are gaining in popularity in this country,
originated In North Africa, where the on
ion is held in higher esteem than any other
vegetable, and where it has been cultivated
since the earliest penods of historical re
cord,
IT is a mistake to allow sows to bi eed
before they are at least a year old, as
they are not then sufficiently matured, and
pigs from such are sometimes too weak to
Jive.
DOMESTIC.
CHICKFN SALAD. —BoiI fowls tender
and pick clean, using no skin; .do not cut
chickens in too small pieces—must not be
hashed; to one chicken put twice and a
half the weight of celery, c it m pieces of
about one quarter of an inch; mix thor
oughly. and put chicken and celery on the
ice. Dressing—the yolks of four fresh
eggs with the yolks of two hard boiled
eggs. Rub these as fmooth as possible
before introducing the oil; a good measure
of oil is a tablespoonful to each yolk ot
fresh egg. All the art consists in mtro.
ducing the oil by degrees; you never can
make a good salad against time. When
the oil is well mixed put in salt—two good
heaping teasiKßJufuls; gixid, dry table salt
is a necessity—and oue teaspoonful of
white ground pepper. Never put IU salt
or pepper before tbis stage ot the process,
because the salt and pepper would coagu
late the albuuieu of the eggs, and you c m
uot get the dressing smooth. Oue table
spoonful of vinegar, added gradually, with
a teaspoonful of tarragon viuegar. Make
the dressing in a vegetable dish, large
enough to hold the whole salad; wheu you
have mixed your chicken and celery lu it
turn it into your salad bowl. Mix very
thoroughly; clean the sides of your salad
bowl with a cloth or a bit of bread —a
smeary salad bowl is an abomination.
Stand the whole iua cool place until ready
to serve. Too much dressing is really a
greater mistafee than too little. The erisp
ness of celery in a salad is very evanescent,
and a chicken salad should be eaten short
ly after dressing. If a great deal of salad,
as tor a supper, has to lie made, work up
your dressing a halt hour beforehand,
and mix when wanted. If a chicken
salad stands too long it loses all its excel
lence. There ought to be uo red pepper
in a chicken salad; its characteristic
should bo blamluess, in Baltimore a
chicken salad is called au olio. Three
years ago chicken salad was introduced in
London, with the most marked success.

A representative of the Lynn (Mass.)
Item, in a late ramble throughout
that city, gathered, among other
scraps of iuterest and information, the
following; The first place visited by the
reporter was the fruit store of Mr. J.
Levett, No. 07 Market street, in response
to a rumor that the proprietor had been
cured of the rheumatism by the great
remedy. Mr. Levett not being in, the re
porter had a talk with his son. Mr. Levett
state t that his father had been cured of
an exceedingly bad attack of rheumatism
by the St. Jacob's Oil. He bad the dis
ease in his right arm and shoulder, which
became perfectly helpless after being af
fected a few hours. His pain was so
great that he could not rest in comfort or
attend to business with any degree of sat
isfaction. After enduring this sort of
thing for some time, he purchased a
bottle of the Great German Remedy and
began to apply it. He did not mince
matters at all, but just used the Oil tor all
it was worth. After pursuing this mode
of treatment for three days the pain was
banished and his father was in a perfectly
healthy condition. He has never sine*
felt any rheumatic pain.
COMMON SALT FOB TBE THROAT.— In
these days, when diseases of the throat are
>o universally prevalent, and in so many
cases fatal, we feel it our duty to say a
word in behalf of a niot-t effectual, if Dot
positive, cure for sore threat. For years
past, indeed we may say during the whole
of a lite ot more than forty years, we have
been subjected to sore throat, and more
particularly to a dry hacking cough which
is cot only distressing to ourself but our
tnends and those with whom we are
brought into business contact. Last fall
we were iriduced to try what virtue there
was in common salt. We commenced by
using it three times a day, morning, noon
und night. We dissolved a large table
spoonful of pure salt in about half a small
tumblerlul of water. With this we gar
gle the throat mo9t thoroughly just before
meal time. The result has been that du
ring the entire winter we were not only
tree from coughs and colds, but the dry,
hacking cough has entirely disappeared
We attrbiute these satisfactory results
solely to the use of the salt gargle, aud
most cordially recommend a trial of it to
those who are subject to diseases ot the
throat. Many persons who have never
tried the salt gargle have the impression
that is unpleasant. Such is not the case.
On the contrary it is pic asaat, and after
a few days' use DO person who loves a nice
clean mouth and a first rate sharpener of
'the appetite will abandon it.
Horace B. Dick, Esq., associate editor
of the Delaware Co., Republican Ches

SPIDERS OBSTRUCTING THE TELEGRAPH.
One ot the chief hindrances to telegraph
ing in Japan is the grounding of the cur
rent by spider lines. The trees bordering
the highways swarm with spiders, which
spin their web everywhere between the
earth, wires, posts, insulator? and trees.
When the spider webs are covered with
heavy dews they become good conductors
and run the message to earth. The only
way to remoye the difficulty is by employ
ing men to sweep the wires with brushes
of bamboo, but as the spiders are more
numerous and persistent than the brush
users, the difficulty remains always a seri
ous one.

A Recent Excitement luoestiuated tni (M //<■*"•
aid a/Ml the Res-tits made PuWft
[Cleveland, 0., Herald.]
A few weeks ago we copied iuto our
columns from the Rochester, N. Y. Dem
ociat and Chronicle "A Remarkable
Htalement," made by J. n. Henion, M.
P., a gentleman who is well known in
this city. In that article Dr. Henion re
counted a wcuderful experience which
befell him, and a few days thereafter we
published from the same oaf>or a second
article, giving an account of the "Excite
ment in Rochester," caused by Dr. Ilen
lou's statement. In the first article Dr.
Henion stated that for a number of years,
up to last June, be had been aftlioted with
what seemed at first a most mysterious
trouble. Ho felt unaccountably tired at
frequent intervals; he had dull and indef
inite pains In various parts of his body and
head, and WHS very hungry one day and
entirely without appetite the next. How
ever, as a physician he thought, and so did
his fellow physicians, that he was suffer
ing from malaria.
But yet he grew worse, and was finally
obliged to give up a large and lucrative
practice. Still he was not couscious of
his danger, nor that a monstrous disease
was becoming fixed upou him, although
sil his organs had become gradually weak
ened. The symptoms above described
continued, accompanied by others of an
aggravated nature, ami be noticed a pe
culiar color and odor about the fluhls he
was passing; that they were abundant one
day and very scanty the next, and were
cohered with froth, or filled with brick
dusi sediment. But even then h* did not
realize his real and alarming condition.
At last, however, he waa brought face to
face with the fact that he was a victim of
a most terrible disease, and he made hero
ic efforts for recovery. He traveled ex
tensively and consulted the t>c9t physicians,
but they could give him only temporary re
lief, and thai principally in the form of mor
phine, And so he grew steadily and con
stantly worse until his life became a tor
ture. " ills pulse waa uncontrollable. He
lived wholly by Injections, and for tlx
days and uighls he had the hiccoughs con
stantly, which are considered the sure In
dications of coming death.
When hope ami life were nearly exhaust
ed his pas for, the Rev. Dr. Foote, rector
of St. Paul's church, strongly urged him
to trv a means which the revereud gentle
ma i bad seen used wrth remarkabel re
nits. He objected at first, but finally
consented, and was conscious of an im
proved condition the first week. His
pains gradually disappeared; his stomach
resumed digestion; his heart became regu
lar; his headaches disappeared; ho had no
more chills and fever, w acidity of the
stomach; he gained twehty-six pounds in
three months, and is a well man to day
being entirely cured of a most pronounced
case ot Bright's disease.
Although conscious, of the oonseq lences
from his professional brethren, still as a
duty to his fellow men, and according to
a vow he made on what he thought was
his dying bed, he published a card detail
ing his Illness and remarkable cure.
"Since my recovery," he says, "1 have
thoroughly reinvestigated the subject of
kldnev difficulties and Bright's disease, and
I believe more than one-half the deaths
which occur in America are caused
by Bright's disease of the kidneys, it
has no distinctive symptoms of its own
(indeed, it often dev lopes without any
pain whatever in the kidneys or their vi
cinity,) but has the symptoms of nearly
every other known complaint. Hundreds
of people die daily whose burials are au
thorized bv a physician's certificate of
"Heart Disease," "Apopleay." "Par
alysis.' 1 "Spinal Complaint." "Rheuma
tism." "Pneumonia," aud other com
mon complaints when in reality it was
Bright's disease of the kidneys. Few
physicians, and fewer people, realize the
extent of this disease or its dangerous and
insidious nature. It steals into the system
like a thief, manifests its presence by the
commonest symptoms, and fastens itself
upon the life before the victim is aware.
It is nearly as hereditary as consumption,
quite aa eommon and fully as fatal. En
tile families inheriting it from their ances
tors, have died, and yet none of the num
ber knew or realized the mysterious pow
er which was removing them. Instead of
common symptoms it often shows none
whatever, but brings death suddenly and
as such is usually supposed to be heart dis
ease."
The second article entitled "Excite
ment in Rochester," was made up of in
terviews with Dr. Henion himself, who
confirmed all said in his card, and also
with Mr. H. 11. Warner. The latter gen
tleman did not regard Dr. Henion s case
as particularly exceptional, because he
had kuown of very many such cures by
the same means in all parts of tbe land.
Kidney diseases, he said, are carrying off
tens of thousands every year, while Bright's
disease is increasing 250 per cent, a de
cade, and yet the people do not realize it
or seek to check it until too late. Ho re
lated how a New Orleans medical profes
sor, lecturing on this disease, thinking to
show his class what healthy fluids were,
subjected some of his own to a chemical
tefet, and although he had no suspicion ot
it before, discovered that he, too, had the
dreaded disease, which proved fatal in
less than a year. There was also an in
terview with the celebrated chemist of the
New York State Board of Health, Dr. S.
A. Lattimore, who sa'd he had analyzed
the remed}' which cured Dr. Henion, and
found that it "entirely free from any
poisonous or deleterious eubst^nces.''
We have made these condensations in
order that all the material facts may be
set before our readers. Since the pub
lication of these two articles, hav
ing been besieged with letters of
inquiry, we sent a communication to
Dr. Henion and also one to H. H. Warner
& Co., asking if any additional proof
could be given us as to the validity
ot the statements published. In answer
thereto we have received the following
letters, which add interest to the entire
subject and wholly verify every statement
hitherto mule:

ROCHESTER, N. Y., Jan. 31, 1882.
SIRS : Acknowledging your favor duly
received, we would say: The best proof
we can give you that the statements made
oy Dr. Henion are entirely true, and
would not have been published unless
strictly so, is the following testimonial
ro.n the best citizens of Rochester, and a
card published by Rev. Dr. Foote, which
you are at liberty to use if you wish.

To Whom it may Concern :
In the Rochester N. Y., Democrat and
Chronicle ot December 81, 1881, there
appeared a statement in the fcrm of a card
from Dr. J. B. Henion, of this city, re
counting his remarkable recovery from
B right's diseaso of the kidneys, after sev
eral doctors of prominence had given him
'US hy the use of a preparation manufac
tured iu tilis city and known as Warner's
Safe Kidney and Liver Cure.
We are personally or by reputation ac
quainted with Dr. Henion, and we believe
le would publish no statement not liter
tlly true. We are also personally or by
reputation well acquainted with H. H.
Warner A Co., proprietors of this remedy,
whose commercial and personal standing
in this community is of the highest order,
and we believe that they would not pub
lish anv statements which wore not liter
ally and strictly true in every particular.

Will you allow the following card, per
sonal to myself, to appear in your widely
circulated paper t
There was published in the R ichester
Democrat and Chronicle of the 11 st of
Dec. last, a statement made by J. B.
ileinon, M. D , narrating how he had beeu
cured of Brlght's disease of the kidneys,
ilinost in its last stages, by the use of
Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure.
I was referred to in that statement, as hav
ing recommended and urged Dr. Hemou
.0 try the remedy, which he did, and was
cored.
Now the republishing of his statement
in many of the leading journals of the day
has been the cause of aa incessant flow of
letters to me making many inquiries, but
chiefly whether the statement is true, or a
mere advertislug dodge, etc., etc.
I beg, therefore to anticipate any fur
ther inquiries and save time and labor,
and some postage, by saying that the
suiemoul of Dr. lienion is true, so far at
it concerns myself, and I believe it to be
true in all other respects. He is a parish
ioner of mine and I visited him in hit
sickness. I urged him to take the medi
cine and would do the same again to any
one who was troubled with a disease ot
the kidneys and liver.
