AGRICULTURE.
LAW FOR FARMERSI—CATTLE IN TMK
HIOHWAY. - Mr. H. A. Haigb, LL. 8., of
Detroit, gives a resume of the laws on the
subject, In the American Agrivul
turist for June, from which we extract
the following:
It is a genet al doctrine of law in this
country that the land iu the highway be
longs to the owners of land lying along
each side. With a few exceptions tile
American farm extends to the middle of
the road, and the public has only the right
to pass and repass there in an orderly man
ner, and the right to keep the way in re
pair. Every other use of the highway
which does not interfere with this pub ic
light, belongs to the farmer owning *he
adjacent land. He owns the soil, grass,
trees, stones and gravel, and everything
else upon the surface or under it, and may
use them all In any waj tuat does not af
lect the public right of passage; and the
law will protect hit ownership in them just
as much as though they were inside his
fence. No other person has any more
right to pasture his stock there thau in in
closed lands; nor can he hitch his horse
to a tree there without being liable tor the
trespass, especiaby if the hone should
gnaw the tree or do other damage; he CAD,
in fact, only pass orderly aloug.
As to road teams, the laws do not, with
the possible exception of those of New
York above noted, impose auy obligation;
and the farmer may, ft he remove
such fences, without impairing his right
ot action against tne owners ot any domes
tic auiuia's tnat enter and do damage by
laat means.
If a person lets his cattle go in the high
way, he is liable for the trespass they
commit by simply being there unlawfully;
lor the gnus they consume, for the injury
they occasioa to the sod or by liarkiug the
irees, and lor auy (ther damage they may
do. If, win e there, thty hook, or Kick,
or bite any per on lawfully using the way,
he would be liable for the injury. A man
once turned his horse in'o a public plaie
whtre children were play in,', one of whom
began switching the horse, which turned
and kicked and killed the child, lie wa>
convicted of manslaughter.
Notwithstanding the fact tha' the farmer
OWLS the laud of the road, he cannot use
it himself lor any purpose which at all In
terlcres with the public lights there. He
can not put Lis wood piles, wagons or pig
pens there; and if he does, and tue traveh r
ruts into them in the night ana is injured,
he would nut only he liaoie for the private
carnages sustained —(Liusley vs Bushuell,
15 Conn. 2-5) but he may lie indicted fur
obslinc.iu, a puoilo Way.
Knuvo WEEDS WITH VITRIOL, — WT
bave here tound the use of drops of sul
phuric acid (oil of vitriol) Bn easy, neat
and entirely effective way of destroying
scattering weeds in the grass of a small
lawn or front yard. It is particula ly con
venient for exiirp&tiug such ili looking
interlopers as plaiuta<n. etc. To cut tbe.-e
out with a knife or a spud involves lor each
one several motions and serious labor; and
even this is not effectual unless every root
is completely severed. Eren if done ef
fectively theie IP left either a hole or a
loose dead weed. But, having a spoonful
of vitriol in a small opeu-mouthed bottle,
fastened ou the end of a two foot handle,
we have only to dip the end of a
small rod into it and touch the heart of a
weed, or four successively before dipping
a*aiD, and they are done for. We have
only to see if there are any more left. Oi
course where weeds are to be killed by
wholesale iu fallow ground the lake, or
hoe or Lanow is the thing to use. And
in walking over meadows in the spring,
the spud (a light thin chisel about three
inches wide with a handle five or seven
feet ioog) is an excellent ins rument to
have in hand. It set ves in turn as a staff
and a weeder. Any in rud ng thistles,
docks, dandelions, or the iiite, can be
drawn or cut with ease. In the garden it
is a c: pital thing, lis long handle and
east of • peralion make it very handy to
push tuoug between rows, tl.cing off the
crust an t the coming weed* wit Lout one's
aoir g off the path For this use its blade
s.ou d be lent up a 1 ttle so as to be near
ly bor zontal when iho end of tLe handle
is elbcw b ga. it suits feeble persons who
wish to do some wieding, but who can
lai'ht r S:OOD, or lift or strike without pain.
KHXPIKG WHEAT AND OTIIEK GRAIN.—
Difference of climate has a g*xxi deal to do
with thrashing and selling grain at barret
or immediately alter, in Eag.and more
than half the gram o! all varieties remains
*.ii the straw nulla rubbed till the next spring.
Oats ale never put in barns at harvest;
they are stacked, very ueatJy and cartful
jy thatched by a professional lading
matcher. Wheat, barley, beans and peas
also are chiefly put into ticks and thatched,
remaining til', stack by slack, ihey are re*
quired to be thrashed tor the straw quite
as much as for the grain, excepting
where; capital is short.
A NOVEL Lh USE PLANT. —The common
cranberry is a most attractive plant when
properly cultivated in pots, and can endure
a great deal of neglect which would be fa
tal to other plants. It only needs to be
k< pt crol and mo st. A compost of muck
■nti sand is the proper material for petting
it in Although usually regarded as aqua
tic in it* nature, it aid not do to have the
seal saturated with water. Wuat it re
quires, is that water shall be within reach
of its roots, and that the soil shall be one
tLro-'gn which water can rise readily by
capillar)" attraction.
FIIDINS LITTLE PlGS —Young pigs
should be fed a little at a time and often—
this i 3 the lectet of lapid growth. If al
lowed all tney will eat, they will gorge
themselves and biing on colic or become
pot-bellied and stunted, when if the feed
was divided into two or three feedings,
they would digest it without dcraugement
of the 1 oinacb. and grow will.
VALUE OF SURFACE SAIL —It was not
known until discovered by Way, and con
firmed by Liebtg and others, that a few
inches in depth of surface toil has the
power to fix or retain all. or nearly all, the
food ot plants which our manure contains,
such as potash, phosphate of lime and
wmmonia, thus preventing its passage into
the poor subsoil.
Is moist charcoal seeds will sprout with
lemarltable quickness and certainty, but
after they have sprouted they do not con
tinue to grow well in charcoal alone.

pie. Almost every fa>mir can'boast of
ooe or more scurvy nigs, and if battrrmilk

DOMESTIC.
CODFISH A LA MATTRK D'HOTKL. —Buy
as much cod iu thick slices as you re
quire, two slices being sufficient for tour
persons; boil it, allowing a quarter of
an hour for each pound, and when the
flesh will separate easily from the bone
drain it, remove the skin, and put it in
to a stow pan, with a quarter of a pound
of butter, a little chopped slialot and
parsley, pepper and salt to tjiste, anil a
quarter of a teuspoonful of grated nut
meg, (if the flavor is liked, if not omit
it); shake the stew pan gently till the
butter is melted, but not until it is oily;
then, as the ingredients mix well togeth
er, add the lemon juice and serve very
hot; very small, round potatoes, now
that new ones are unobtainable, can 1K
procured by cutting them with the vog
table scoop out of larger ones; should
be served with the flsh; a little parsley,
minced very tine and sprinkled over
them is an improvement.
CKLHKY Sour.—This soup can be made
with or without stock, but it is better
with it. If made with stock, take nine
heads of celery and cut them up into
small pieces; have ready two quarts of
boiling water, into which throw the cel
ery, a teas jHHUif ill of salt, one lump of
sugar, and a little nutmeg; let it boil
until the celery is perfectly tender; then
pass it through a sieve ; add three-quar
ters of a pint of stock, and let it simmer
for half an hour; to make it richer odd
half a pint of cream and good milk ; let
it come to a Inuling point, and serve im
mediately with fried bread. The best
stock for such white soup is made by
boiling a knuckle of veal until the meat
is all in slireds, adding lemon peel and
straining it for use.
BROWN GRAVY. —Take two pounds of
shiu of beef, one-quarter pound of lean
ham, one onion, two pints of water, salt
and whole pepi>er to taste, one blade of
mace, a pinch of savory herbs, half of a
large carrot, and half a head of celery,
cut the beef and ham into small pieces,
and slice the vegetables; have a jar which
would hold two pints of water and ar
range therein tho ham, meat, vegetables
and seasoning alternately, tilling up with
two pints of water; close tho jar tightly,
so that no steam can escape; place it m
the oven to remain six or eight hours.
At the expiration of that time strain the
gravy, ami when eold remove every par
ticle of fat; it may bo flavored with wine,
catsup, or any sauee preferred.
A VERY GOOD APPLE PIE. —Take a
largo oofi'eecupful of light broad dough,
work ill it a piece of buttor tho size of
ail egg, fill a deep dish with apples sliood
thin, put a little water on them, roll out
the crust just to cover tho dish, and buko
until tho apples are perfectly soft; thou
with a knilo lift tho crust off, lay it up
side down on u plate a little larger than
tho crust; mash the apples with tho back
of a spoon in tho disk they wore liaktxl
in, put a piece of buttor in them as largo
as a nuting, sugar to your taste, stir
well together, spread them on tho crust,
grate nutmeg over the top, and you have
a nice pie. Better if oaten with cream.
LIGHT TEA BISCUIT. TWO quarts of
sifted flour, one pint of sweet milk, in
which melt one quarter of a pound of
sweet butter, one teasjioonful of salt in
the milk, one teacup of fresh yeast,
well shaken diligently with a fork. Lot
the milk, etc., bo just blood warm, no
more; then knead *as breath Out it
across, through with a' knife. Let it
rise six or seven hours, as it may require.
Take from the pan, knead it well, cut in
small cakes, and put to rise in a pan an
hour before baking. This recipe, with
additional sugar and suitable spices,
makes excellent family doughnuts.
BOILED FROSTING. —If a little cream
of tartar is mixed with the sugar the
frosting will harden at once. Make the
frosting as follows : Boil two and one
half cups of sugar with two-thirds of a
cup of water until it will hang in strings
from the spoon, add the white's of three
eggs beaten to a froth, stir it until it is
quite smooth and add the juice of one
lemon. This will make enough to put
between the layers of a good sized cake
and frost the top and sides. One cup
of sugar and one egg is enough for the
top sides of a good sized cake.
A NICE SUPPER. A good supper is
maele of bacon and potatoes in this way.
Thin slices ef bacon are fried to a delicate
brown and set away in a plate in the
oven. Cold boileel potatoes are cut in
slices and fried crisp in the fat; thin
slices of onions are aeldeel five minutes
before they are done. Serve these with
tart apples stewed until soft but not
broken; put these in a pan; put in
water and sugar to make a syrup and
put them in the oven to brown.
STEWED CARROTS. —Serajre the carrots
and cut them in half; Then cut them up
into small strips alwmt an inch in length,
place them in a stew pan, with salt and
enough water to cover them, and let
them simmer till quite tender; then
draiu them, replace them ill the pan,
with two ounces of butter, dredge them
well with Hour, arid enough water to
moisten thoroughly, (some i>ersons pre
fer stock;, let thein come to the boil
and serve very hot.
MINCE PIES. —The best of mince meat
is made as follows; Four pounds of round
of beef; two pounds of suet; eight pounds
of apples; four pounds of sugar; two
pouiuls of raisins; two ouuees of cinna
mon; one of allspice; one nutmeg; two
quarts of lxnled cider; one pint of brandy;
half a pint of molasses; half a cup of
salt. Chop and mix all tine and put
down in a jar to ripen.
NEW TOWELS. —When new towels are
to be washed first, overcast the fringed
edge, shake the fringe out well before
they are hung up to dry, or the fringe
may be whipped out over the back of a
chair. This is better than combing and
does not wear out the fringe.
BROWN BETTIE.— This is a simple and
easily made pudding. Put alternate
layers of grated bread crumbs and
chopped apples in a pudding dish; sea
son each layer with sugar, cinnamon,
and a little butter. For a dish holding
3 pints, use three cupfuls of hot water.
Bake an hour and a half fend make the
top brown. Serve with sweet cream.
A VENISON ROAST.—A loin of venison is
rolled up with a head of celery and some
sweet herbs inside and skewered and
tied up well. Some water is put in the
dripping pan, and on the top of the
roast some thin slices of salt pork are
laid. Roast for two hours, baste often
and turn once. Thus cooked venison is
juicy and never dry. Serve with apple
sauce or jelly.
GOLD CAKE.—A very satisfactory foun
dation for a chocolate caks is made as fol
lows : Half a pound of sugar; four ounces
of butter; half a pound of flour; the
yolks of five eggs; and one teaspoonful
of baking powder are well beaten to
gether and flavored with vanilla.
HUMOROUS.
"1 COME over to see alxmt your boy,"
said a neighbor last evening. "He's
very troublesome about my house. Ho
lias been throwing rotten apples into my
front yard and calling my wife Old Molly
Grabs."
"And I was going over to see you
about your boy," was tho rejoinder.
"He chalked my woodshed all over with
n picture of my wife driving me out of
the hack door with a kettle of water in
oue hand and a broom in tho other."
"Is that so? Then Igo in for civil
service reform within our own families."
The boys never* knew what they were

A* the use of electricity becomes more
Ami more general, the great importance of
some method of storing the current for
future use becomes more widely apprs
c'ated. Since the announcement of
F.ture's electrical accumulator some
mouths ago, this subject has lieen much
studied, aud several storage batteries have
been produced by emineut electricians.
The moat promising apparatus of this
kind is said to be one Just described by
Mr Henry Sutton, of Australia, to the
British Royal Society. It appears, from
information now at hand, that Mr. Sutton
otitained the best results with a negative
electrode of copper and a positive of amal
gamated lead—that is, lead coaled with
mercury. These two elements are placed
In a solution of sulphate of copper. Wheu
a current of electricity is passed through
this cell the solution is decomposed and
metallic copper deposited on the negative
electrode, while the positive is peroxidized.
When the battery is being discharged the
action is reversed, the copper element
being oxidized, and the oxide combluing
with the acid again forms sulphate of
copper. As the copper is deposited in
charging, the solution gradually loses its
blue color, being converted into sulphuric
acid. It is stated that Mr. Butt>n will
not patent his discovery.
