AGRIC CJLTURE. WHAT A PINT OF MANURE DID.—A Wisconsin farmer sends this experience: "Last yearj in haulirg yard manure across a field afterwards planted to corn, some of it icattered off in driblets—from * handful to a pint or so in a place. When planting the corn, I found portions of these drop pings, and where noticed, drew them into the hills and with the hoe mixed them a little with the soil as the seed was dropped. In three instances where a large handful or about a pint of the manure was thus put in, a stick was driven down to mark the hill*. When hoeing, we noticed that in these hills the corn plants had started off more vigorously, were gieener, and at the third hoeiug they were 6 to 13 inches high er than the other hills adjoining. Our cu riosity being awakened we followed up the observations, and when gathering the crop, each of the three stalks in the three hills, had two large plump ears, while thr surrounding corn did not average one good ear to the stalk. This set us to thinking and figuring. That bit of manure had given the young corn roots a vigorous start just as good feed starts off a young calf, or pig, pr lamb, and the roots penetrated further in every direction and gathered more food and moisture. These stalks be ing bettei nourished trom below, ran "far away from the poorly fed neighbors. As to the figures, the rows were 8 J feet apart, and the hills three feet distant in the rows, say 4,000 hills on an acre, and 4,000 ptnts of manure is about 02$ bushels, or two large wagon loads. Anybody cau reckon the difference between six large, well filled ears of corn on each hill, and less than 8 per hill, and the cost of the manure as "compared with the total value of the final crop The plowiug, and the seed, and the hoeiug, amount to the same in each ease. All I have to say is, that every corn hiil planted on my farm this year will have at least a pint of manure in it. APPU POMACE AS A MANURE —Apple pomace, as well as the leaves of the tree, if spread thickly on the land while in a green state," will destroy all vegetation be neath them. When put into large heaps tney have been known to kill trees. Their deleterious effects upon vegetation are rot because they do net contain any fertilizing properties but because they con tain, while in a green state, too great a proportion of add for their other ingredi ents. They also pack so closely together as to exclude both air and light, without which vegetable growth cannot long exist. Some years ago 1 mulched, pretty heavifj, some strawberry plants with about half iTied cherry and apde tree leaves, with a view to protect them during wintar. The result was the death of nearly all my planis by spring, and the i&nd remained sour most of the following summer. If apple pomace be put ID a bep and expesed to me frost of winter, ard in thespnugincor porated with some dry straw or com cobs, with a small portion of uns'acked lime, and again left exposed to the summer suns, by fall the acid will be mostly exhausted, aud the compost makes an excellent top dressing for winter wheat. It may be used to advantage during winter as a top dres sing for meadows or other gra< land. Ii should not be used untjj the acid has evap orated. For the destruction of any of the vane les of L uaria (will flax), yarrow, milfoil or any other noxious perenniel plant, 1 UDOW of nothing better than a lib eral application of salt. Salt, when usetf sparingly on growing crops, somewnat dis tant lruiu the seocost. is an excellent fer tilizer. When used in large quantities it becomes a speedy exterminator of vegeta ble matter. It also puts the land into ex celknt condition for future crops. RAISING THE SUNFLOWER FOR ITS SEED.- KT a year or two the subject of feeding the seed of sunflowers to fowls has been referred to in poultry journals frequently with approval, and we have seen no word m opposition. Altnough this flower, if it can be so called, has come into favor even among ladies and some pantaloon crea tures who are said to be of ma !e gender, it is by no mears an attractive floral attri bute. If is something among flowers that the elephant is apiong beasts, huge and uncouth. Still if it possesses the merit of producing wholesome food for the feather ed tribe, it is to that extent so much be yond flowers ID solid value.. But it being proved thai it is a plant of more or less value for its seed, and being very hardy in its nature, it substitutes usefulness for beauty; and as it will grow in every out-of the-way corner and place, where scarcely anyihing else can be cultivated, it can be honestly recommended to the keeper ot fowls to appropriate such plots of ground to the raising of it for its seed. "It would not require much space to produce Iroin 3 tofive bushels of seed, which would be a substantial addition to the winter season's supply of chicken-food. THE TUBEROSE AND GLADIOLUS. —These bulbs have been produced of late years in such quantities that they are now sold at prices winch bring them within the reach of all. The Tuberose, so valued for its fragrance, is often Injured by being plant ed too early. The first of May is soon enough to start the bulbs; they may be planted in pots or boxes of soil, and placed m the green house, or in a warm room, and tney will be sufficiently advanced to be planted in the open groun I by the last of May or part of June. They slioulahave a warm, rich spot, and the flower stalk, as it develops, be supported by a slender stake. The Gladiolus, on the other hand, is almost hardy. - It affords a w.de range of colors, and a bed of tbem is very showy. Mixed, unnamed bulos, can be bought at a much less price than the uamed kinds. Tbey should be planted a foot apart with the top of the bulb at least two inches below the surface. It is weL to plant a portion of the bulbs every two weeks until the first halt of June to insure a continuous bico n. It is well to stake the flower stalks to keep them from being broken down by the wind just as they are in their prime. CARE OF PASTURES —A good permanent pasture, bandy to the barnyard, is very convenient, almost a necessity, on every well regulated farm. Such a field needs to be well fertilized and cared for, that it ma give the best return in an abundant supp'y of green food, for farm stock. A top dressing of fine, well-rotted manure in win ter is excellent, but if not done, a dressing of 50 to 100 pounds of nitrate soda per acre may be applied. It is best to sow this just before a shower, that the ram may carry this very soluble food to the roots of the plants. After supplying the necessary fertilizers, it is important not to overstock the pasture. Let the adjustment between the number of animals and tbe capacity of the field be such, that there may be good leedmg throughout the whole season, If such a pasture has a na tural spang, its value is mucn increased. The next to this is a well, provided with a windmill, for raising an abundant supply of water. THOSE who use iime as a fertilizer apply from ten to fifty bushels to the acre; ashes may be applied at the same rate, salt at the rate of two hundred to four hundred pounds, and plaster at the rate of one hundred pounds. DOMESTIC. ROYAL CORN BREAD.— Make a pint of butter of two-thirds nice corn meal and one-third coarse tlour stirred in water ; it stand in a warm place until it fer ments well; then add warm water, two or three spoonfuls or molasses, a tea spoonful of salt and a teaspoonful of soda, or enorgli to correct the acidity, then thicken with corn meal and coarse tlour, iu the some proportion as at first, making the batter alxiut the same con sistency as for griddle cakes; oil your baking disli and fill about half full, al ways have about a pint of the batter to start with again. Place the loaf in a steamer and steam it two hours for a two-quart loaf, and bake it in the bven about thirty minutes to brown it. The same recipe may be used for griddle cakes.- AN excellent plan to save old nap kins aud table-cloths is to out out the good parts and put them away in a bug, appropriately labeled, and have them ready for use in case of sickness. A house-wife whose system is so complete that it is hard to believe that she has lived on eartli only about forty years gives this advice, and she says also that we should keep another bag with pieces of fiaunol, and another with old cotton doth, for the sumo purpose. FRENCH OMELETTE. — Take four eggs, separate the yolks f om the whites, beat the white to a snow on a dinner plate ; then Wat the yolks in a small ba*m with sugar to taste, then add a small piucli of baking soda and throe large tablespooufuls of tlour, and milk enough to make a thin batter; then pour into an omelette-pan, previously heated and greased, spread the white over the top. Fire by holding high above the fire till set brown on the top; double over and serve hot with jam. i ORANGE JELLY. — Peel twelve large or anges ; cut them into stu •11 pieces, and squeeze tliein thoroughly through a lin en bag. To one pint of juice mid one ponud of sugar; when the sugar is dis solved put it over the tire ; dissolve two ounces of isinglass in just hot water enough to cover it, and add it to the jel ly as it Wgins to boil. Let it boil very fast for twenty minutes. Put it hot in to the jars, and tie it up with papers dipped in brandy. Lemon jelly may be made in the same way, one pint of juice add two pounds of sugar. PEANUT CANDY. — One scant pint of molasses, four quarts of peanuts, meas ured before they are shelled, two tible spoonfuls of vanilla, one teaspoonful of soda. Boil the molasses until it har dens, in cold water, when dropped from the spoon, Stir in the vanilla, then the soda, dry. Lastly, the shelled peanuts. Turn out into shallow dishes well butter ed, and press it down smooth with a wooden spoon. ORANGEADE. — Pour a pint of boiling water over a sliced orange. When cold strain it, and sweeten it to suit the pal ate. Another way : Squeeze the juice from six oranges and two lemons into a quart 6f boiling water, then slice tli°m and put them in with the juice. Pour the fluid frequently and quickly from one jug to another, and strain it. OAT MEAL PUDDING. — Mix two heap ing tablespoonfuls in a half teacupful of milk, sweeten to taste and stir over the fire for ten miuutes ; then put in a half teacupful of fine bread crumbs, one-half teacup of finely shred suet,and two well-leaten eggs. Stir together well, season with lemon or nutmeg. Put into a buttered pudding dish, and bake one hour. MACAROONS. — Pulverize one pound of sweet almonds quite fine with the whites of four eggs; add two ami a half pounds of sugar and rub them well together; put in by degrees ten more whites, work ing them well as you put them in ; put the mixture into a biscuit funnel and lay them out on water paper in pieces about the size of a walnut; put three or four pieces of almonds cut into thin slips 011 each, and bake them ou a bak ing plate in a slow oven one-half hour. HASH made of two parts potato, one part corn beef and one part beets is an appetizing dish for breakfast. The po tatoes and beets should be boiled the day liefcre ; chop them and the beef tine; season with butter, pepi>er and salt, and some hot vinegar and mustard may be added if you choose. ROAST PIGEON.— Wipe them quite dry, truss them, and season them in side with pepper and salt, ami put a piece of butter the size of a walnut iu each. Put them down to a sharp fire and baste them all the.time they are cooking. They will take about hAlf an hour. Garnish them with white parsley and serve with a tureen of bread sauce. A DELICIOUS fish sauce is made of half a cup of butter, one tablespoonful of parsley chopped very fine, a little salt, and pepper, and the juice of two small lemons, or of one large one. Warm the butter a little so that you can easily lieat it to a cream, then mix with the other ingredients, putting the pars ley in last, just before sending it to the table. AN excellent way to warm a roast of beef is to put it iu a kettle, and cover the meat with, very thin slices of onions. Scatter pepper and salt over them, put iu a lump of butter, and just enough water to keep the meat from burning; let it warm slowly 011 the back part of the stove, and then move it forward and let the onions cook. GATEAUX MADELEINES. —One pound of sugar, sixteen eggs, half pound of butter, three quarters ixmnd of best flour. Beat the eggs and the sugar to gether in a bowl; when done mix .in the flour, then the butter. Put the paste in small moulds and bake in a warm oven.

CODFISH STEWED. —BoiI a piece of codfish, but do not overdo it. Pick out the flesh in flakes, put them in a sauce pan with a piece of butter, pepper and salt to taste, some minced parsley and tbe juice of a lemon; with a dust of cay enne. Put it on the fire till quite hot, and serve. EGOS IN THE SHELL. —Put them into boiling water; take them off" the fire; cover them five minutes to allow them to set; then take them out of the water and serve in a folded napkin. . ORANGE AND APPLE PRESERVE. —PeeI koine oranges and simmer them until tender. Then cut them into slices; re move the seeds and put them into jelly pots. Now prepare some apple jelly and pour it over them, so as to Mil the pots. HUMOROUS. IT is reported of one of the great cap italists of Gotham that once upon a time he found an article in one of the dailies which rat her peeled the man off in Hpots and he called in bis confidential secreta ry and said : "James, go out and see what the Daily/ Planter can be bought for : I'll buy it and throw everything into- the bay!" James went out on the errand and re turned and reported the priom at $700,- 000. "Too much—too much !" replied the magnate.. "James go out and see what it will cost me to start an opposition daily." James sullied forth to get the figure, and on his return reported that liulf u million dollars would perhaps run one for a year or so. "Too much—too iufernal much!" was the decided reply. "James, go out and buy a dollar bouquet and solid it to the editor with my compliments. 'm, James,- 'nil if revenge costs that much money we've got to knuckle and lot him take the tr lck. " Fear Not.

"Are you sure the swallow was not coming from the opposite direc tion?" usked Gilhoolv, with the air of a man who wanted to know. *'Of course not," was the indignoiit response. "I reckon then that the swallow wanted to build her nest in your horse's ear. The horse went so slow the swallow could not see he was moying. Wonderful home.
