AGRICULTURE. Ur&T ON WHEAT.— The yellow or or ange colored dust that forms on the leaves and stems shortly before reaping time, is caused by a minute fungus. The fungus plant attacks the wheat a few weeks be fore it makes its appearance, and fills the interior substance of the leaves and stems with fine threads. These threads act as roots, by means of which the fungus, or rust-plauts, obtains its nourishment from the substance of the growing wheat-plant. There is no remedy for the rust after it has once appeared upon the surface of tho wheat. The most effective preventive is blue vitriol or blue stone (sulphate of cop per), two or three ounces of this salt to a bushel of wheat. The wheat is soaked in the brine for a short time before sowing There has been much energy expended in the endeavor to find some variety of wheat that is rust-proof. Professor Brewer, who has charge ot the gram statistics in the late census, finds many districts where a varie ty of wheat has sprung up that for a year or so is almost rust-proof, but afterward it becomes infested the same as other sorts. As a precaution burn the stubble, thus de stroying many spores that would otherwise germinate and continue the pest. IN Colorado is a ten acre field, which is no more nor less than a subterranean lako covered with soil about eighteen inches deep. On the soil is cultivated a field of corn, which produces thirty bushels to the acre. If any one will take the trouble to dig a hole the depth of a spade handle, he will find it to fill with water, and by using a hook and line, fish four or five inches long may be caught. The fish neither have scales nor eyes, and are perch-like in shajte. The ground is a black marl in nature, and in all probability was at one time an open body ot water, on which accumulated veg etable matter, which had been increased from time to time, until now it has a ciust sufficiently strong and rich to pro duce fine corn, although it has to be cul tivated by hand, as it is not strong enough to bear the weight of a horse. While har vesting, the hands catch great strings of fish by making a bole through the earth. A person rising on his heel and coming down suddenly, cau see the grow mg corn shake all around him. Any one having sufficient strength to drive a rail through the crust will And, on releasing it, that it will disappear altogether. To GET RID OF ANTS. —To thoroughly rid a house of red and black ants; cock roaches, spiders, bed bugs and all crawling pests, lake two pounds of alum and dis solve it m three or four of boiling water. Let it stand on the tine till the alum disap pears; then apply it with a brush while nearly bciL ! rg hot to every joint or crevice in your closets, bedsteads, pantry shelves and the like. Brush the crevices in the floor of the skirting or mop boards, if you suspect that they harbor vermin. Cock roaches WLU flee the paint which has been washed m cool alum water. If, in washing the ceiling, plenty of alum is added to the lime, it will also serve to keep insects at a distance. IN a bad case of gapes give the chicken a pill of camphor about the size of a gar den pea. As*soon as any symptoms are manifested, give the buds water to drink which has been strongly impregnated with camphor. The treatment seems to explain itself. The gaps or gaping is caused by the presence in the windpipe of small red worms. No medic:ne can reach theno un less it does so in the form ot vapor. One hour after the chicken has swallowed the pill it smells of camphor. Camphor is a strong vermifuge, and under the above treatment the worms w \ BEARING tbe off year may be effected by shearing off all the anple blossoms or small fiuit on young trees likely to be overloaded this abundant year. The work is comparatively easy on youug trees, which as yet have small crops and are more accessible and it is more likely to produce a permanent change than an old tree with fixed habit. GRAFTS set early, in the spring should not be iDjured by sboots and suckers spring ing up Jrom the stock about them. As soon as the graft shows that it is alive, rub off al. these sprouts or shoots. If the graft should happen to die, leave the strongest shoot to grow tor re-graftiog, and rub off all the rest. Tbe same attention must be given to buds which are inserted last sum mer and the stocks cut off this spring. GRAPEVINES, pruned at the proper times will send out 100 many new sboots, which would grow and make a thick mass of branches and foliage. Rub off in time all the needless sboet*, leaving the strongest ones equally distributed along the vine, at distances from eight to twelve inches. HUNDREDS of farmers in Pennsylvania, have turned their attention to fish culture. Many have stocked ponds and streams, and in most cases they have been successful, especially with carp, and in a few years they will depend upon fish for a subsis tence as much as upon any other farm product. A SUCCESSFUL Boston florist says that be seldom fails to root slips of the most ten der and rare plantp. He credits his suc cess to a layer ot oacs placed under the usual layer of sand in which the slips are planted. When moistened they act as a stimulant and feeder to the tender roots of the slip. CRABBED corn is excellent to feed to hens in order to increase their egg laying capacity. It is not desirable to feed it as tbeir general food, but a portion of It every day will be found beneficial. Char the corn on the cob pretty thoroughly, raking care not to reduce any part of it to ashes. IT IS lamentable that so few farms have a supply of small fruits. Many farmers never have a berry of their own raising, while tbe most hardy fruit, the com non red cherry, is not all plenty, OKRA is as easily grown AS corn and re quires the same treaiment. The young, unripe pods make delicious soups, and it sliced and dried can be uced tbe year round. THE present high prices are convincing proofs that farmers have not been able to overstock the market yet. There is plenty of room for more farmers in this country. AFTER a hen has been sitting fifteen days put the eggs into a vessel of lukewarm water. Those which will hatch will stir in the water, while those not alive will lie still. ORCHARD grass and red clover make ex cellent companions, and as they grow so well together the forimr is being substitu ted for timothy by many farmers this year. THOMAS MEEHAK seys that the average life of the apple tree in Pennsylvania is about fiftyjyears. IN Trim We county, Ivy., opposite Madi son, lnd., over 100,000 peacl trees were planted this lust spring. DOMESTIC. BRAN BEDS FOR THE BABIES. —A Fre noli doctor has invented a new l>ed for babies which hoi Is them safe in its custody and prevents them from ever giving any trouble at night to their attendants. This gentleman has subjected his sys tem to the most trying of all tests, for he has applied it to all his own children, and considers that the life of one of them is entirely owing to its use. The idea is to fill the greater part of the cranio with bran and immerse the legs and part of the body of the ehild iu this nest, covering them over usual way, but fastening down the counterpane tight, so as to keep him firm iu his place. Why this change of tactics should have the effect of taking away from the infant his ususd desire to howl during a part of ev ery night is a question which we will leave nurses to explain for themselves after they have tried the system. In the meantime, until that trial has been made it is only civil to believe the testimony af Drs. Bourgeois and Vigoureux, who in two Frenoh papers of soma authority deolare that such is the invariable result. This is uot, however, the only advantago to be expected from the system Tho bran is supposed to have a warming and stimulating influenoe superior to any sort of cotton or cloth, and to allow chil dren of the more sickly kind to develop more quickly and to be sooner able to use their limbs. The inventor of the system declares that they delight iu their bran beds, and always "quit them with regret," when removed at the age of two years, to one of a different kiud. PEACH BLOSSOM CAKE. —One enp of pulverized sugar, half a cup of butter, stirred together until it looks like thick cream. One teaspoonful of soda, dis solved in half a cupful of sweet milk; beat the whites of three eggs, and put them in with two teaspooufnls of cream of tartar mixed with a teacupful of fiour; stir and add half a teaspoonful of corn starch. Flavor strongly with peach. Bake in two square sponge tins in mod erately quick oven, and when done sandwich with finely-grated cocoanut and pink sugar. Frost with clear icing, and sprinkle this with pulverized pink sugar. BRAISE CF DUCKS WITH PEAS.—Pre pare a domestic duck as for roasting. Line a small pan, just large enough for the duck, with slices of bacon; strew over the bottom a little parsley, powder herbs and lemon-peel, lay in the duck and add a few whole peppers; cover with stock and add a tablespoonful of strong viuegar; baste frequently aud simmer until done. It is a matter of choice whether the green peas be put in the pan with the duck or cooked separately. Fry two onions in butter till they are of a pale brown; boil them to a thick sauce with some of the duck gravy; season with salt aud serve with peas around the duck and the gravy thrown over. WHITE FLANNELS THE BEST. —Often we are asked the question, which is the best for health, red flannel or white? We answer white, for the following rea sons: White flannel is warmer. It con tains no artificial coloring matter, as red flannel is likely to do, aud henoe can not be a source of poisoning, as tbe latter frequently is. It is more durable, and, from the r adiness with which it shows soils, is likely to be kept more cleanly. The popn'ar notion that red flannel is a specific for rheumatism or any other dis ease. is a mistake. CHOCOLATE PUDDING. —Quart of milk, one cup of sugar, one-third of a cup of Baker's chocolate, one whole egg and yolks of three more, and two spoonfuls of corn starch. .Leave out a cup of milk to mix the ingredients. Boil those until the milk begins to thicken, then pour into your pudding dish. When cold make a frosting of the whites of three eggs used, and stiffen with sugar; a little vanilla; pour over the pudding and set in the oven three minutes. A little choc olate beaten into the frosting is also very nice. CREAM CUSTARD. —Sweeten a pint of cream with powdered white sugar; set it on a few coals, When hot stir in white wine until it curdles; add rose wa ter or essence of lemon to the taste, and turn into dessert dishes or cups. Another way of making them is to mix a pint of cream with one of milk, five beaten eggs, a tablespooniul of flour, and three of sugar; add nutmeg to the taste, and bake in cups or pie-plates in a quick oven. To PREPARE SPICED BLACKBERRIES.— To six pints of fruit take two and one half pints of sugar, one and one-half piuts of vinegar, one half ounoe of cin namon (ground), one-half ounce cloves, one-half ounce allspice and a little mace broken in small pieces. Boil the sngar and vinegar together, with the apices, putting these last into muslin bags. Then put in the berries and let them scald, not boil. A NICE BREAKFAST DlSH. —Remove the skins from a dozen tomatoes, cut tliem np iu a saucepan, add a little but ter, pepper and salt, when sufficiently boiled, beat up five or sir eggs, and just before you serve turn them into the saucepan with the tomatoes and stir one way L r two minutes, allowing them to be done thoroughly. HOP BEER. —Sugar, four pounds; hops, six ounces; ginger, bruised, fourouuees. Boil the hops for three hour* with five quarts of water, then strain, add five more quarts of water and the ginger, boil a little longer, again strain: add the su gar, and when lukewarm add one pint of yeast. After twenty-four hours it will be ready for bottling. SHERRY BISCUITS. —Take one pouud of lump sugar, eight eggs, and a suffic ient quantity of sherry wfue beat them well together, and then add a pound of flour and half aD ounce of coriander seeds. Pour the paste into buttered tins, and bake them at a gentle heat for half an hour; then turn them, and cover their surfaces with some more eggs and sugar, and replace them in the oven for another quarter of an hour. GINGER BEER. —Brown sugar, two pounds; boiling water, two gallons; cream of tartar, one ounce; bruised gin ger, two ounces. Infuse the ginger in the boiling water, add the sugar n- d cream of tart ar. When lukewarm strain; then add one-half pint of good yeast. Let it stand all night; then bottle. If desired, a lemon may be added, and it may be clarified by the white of an egg. CUCUMBER CATSUP. —Take a dozen large rip-- cucumbers, pare, cut open and remove the seeds, and grate to a pulp; place the pulp in a bag of thin muslin and hang it up to drain. Mext day re move the grated cucumber from the bag, add two or three onions and green pep pers chopped fine, a tablespoonlul of salt, mix well, aud place in a jar with sufficient vinegar to cover it. HUMOROUS. OUT at first base: A young couple on Prairie avenue had conversed long and earnestly one night last week about the weather and other thrilling subjects, and at 10.30 .Llewellen grabbed his soap dish sastor from the $75 hat rack and pre pared to go home. In the hall were some rare exotics among them a young centu ry plant, only a year old. "They are a curious flower." said Maud. "They are that," replied Llewellen. "How I would like to see one in bloom." "Would you, truly ?" inquired Maud, with a radiaut, artless look in her soft brown eyes. "Indeed I woild," said Llewellen, a wild hope springing up in his exper ienced heart. As they stood in the doorway beueath the warm, bright stars of June, and he held her snow white, jeweled hand in his hand in—his'u— Maud asked him to oall again. Llewel len ventured to squeeze the tiny, unre sisting hand. "Yes, call," she said softly, and sweetly, and tenderly, "call again, Llewellen—when the century plaut blossoms." Kltn>y Complaints, of all descriptions are relieved at once,and speedily cured by Kidney-Wort. It seems intended by nature for the cure of all dis eases of the kidneys caused by weakness and debility. Its great tonic powers are especially directed to the removal of this class of diseases. We know of persona that have suffered for thirty years that have been permanently cured by taking Kidney-Wort a short time. Try it, either liquid or dry.— Sun. BOOIKTT item: Young Hostetter Mc. Giuiiis, one of the fashionable young bloods of Austin, took a young lady to church bust Sunday evening. As ho had been up quiet late the night before, he was very sleepy, consequently he did not flirt with the fashionable young lady, as he had heretofore been in the habit of doing in church. "What is the matter with you?" she asked in a wisper. "I'm not feeling well," he whispered back. "You wake up and giggle a little any how. If we don't misbehave ourselves in church, people will think we are mar ried aud I want you to understand I've got a reputation to sustain." After that Hostetter McGinnis and the young lady acted so improperly that the sexton had to go aud whisper to them to keep quiet. It seems impossible that a romedy made of such common, simple plants as flops, Buchu, Mandrake, Dandelion, &?., should make so many and such great cures as flop Bitters do ; but when old and young, rich and poor, pastor and doctor, lawyer and e-litor, all testify to having been cured by them, you must believe aud try them yourself, and doubt no longer.
