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.

CURED.
"I have had Asthma for 22 years, suffering a
thousand deaths ; have been so that 1 could
not go out Cur four months at a time, but sat
in a chair night and dv. I have tried every
remedy I ever heard of, and spent thousands
of dollars In search of a cure; hut all in
vain until I found Knight's Asthma Cure.
That was in February iast. My Asthma
had been unusually bad all winter. Six bot
tles of this medlctne have made me feel like
a new man. 1 call myself well. 1 have not
been oppressed for breath all through this
trying spring, and can not express in words
wnat this wonderful remedy has done for
mc."
A. t. Bradford, Arlington, Mas*
" I feel Ifke thanking Mr. Knight for his ex
cellent Asthma Curs. It has done very
much to relieve me of a case of Asthma;
and, from my present improvement, 1 ex
pect to be uuuer still greater obligations."
Pres't R. Habar Hotbrook, of the National
Normal University, Lebanon, O.
" I was severely afflicted with Asthma from
1855 to 1882; tried many remedies (so called),
and spent much money fn vain, seeking relief.
In February, 1882. I received the first bottle
of Kusghts Asthma Cure. 1 commenced to
improve at once, have had very few Asthma
Hymptoms since, and am now as free from
it as a person who never had it. 1 can say
with certainty that Knights Asthma Cure
is the best yet discovered."
E. C. Weaver, Lawyer, 030 F St., Wash
ington, D. C.
*• I have traveled north, east, and west, and
apent four years south in order to relieve
royse'f of this terrible disease, Asthma; ana,
until 1 received Knighte Asthma Curt,
found no permanent relicL After taking this
medicine but a fortnight I obtained the
greatest relief, and can say I am now cured
entirely, and tnat my cure is considered al
most a miracle by my friends. You can re
fer to me at all times."
Prof. G. W. H&svxhurst, 12 Willow St,
Pateroon, N.J.
"My wife has found Knights Asthma Cure
a perfect success where all others have
proved a failure. Having been a great suf
ferer from Asthma, and having taken so
much medicine for the disease without ob
taining any permanent benefit, she hesitated
to try any more. But she was induced to
try a bottle of Knights Curt, and from the
day she commenced taking it regularly she
has not had a single attack. This medicine
is a great blessing to suffering Asthmatics."
D. G. Drake, Supt. Schools, Mt. Washing
ton, O.
" I am over 60 vcar* old, and have had the
Asthma over 35 years. Have tried many
t medics, but obtained only temporary relief.
Knight's Asthma Cure has helped me more
than all others put together Since 1 com
menced taking it, I rest well at night, and
the neighbors all say 1 look better than for
n.rny years."
