AGRICULTURE.
NEGLECTED LAND?, IN USE FOR I'ASTUR
AGE. —It is a common practice on many
f*rms to improve the more invitißij por
tions of the homestead, converting these
into tillage fields and meadows, apparently
condemning for use as pasture the remain
der. This remainder, mauy tunes, pre
ents a sorry sight. If the farm i 9 upon
land formerly covered with timber, the
pasture ground is likely to be thinly set in
dwarf blue grass, with patches here and
there of white clover, mullein, and possi
bly a little sorrel. Rotting logs ami stumps
are scattered around. The stock, after
having hunted in vain to obtain their fill,
retreat to the shade, of which there is lia
ble to be a superabundance, made up of
wortbess trees, which encumber the ground
they stand upon. The animals grow but
little, are always small aud leau, and are
never expected by the ownu* to be other
wise; and under this kind of management,
drag out a life a' out on a par with the cat
tle of South America, having,individually,
about as much merit. A Isrm provided
with grazing around of the kind referred
to should never be made the home of im
proved stock. If bought in good condition,
anu the transfer be made from g >od pas
ture to those of the kind described, they
will inevitably shrink. It is not surer that
water will find its own level than that well
brtd and meritorious stock will, iu a few
years, upon such pasturage, get down to
wards tLe level of the scrub, tor upon soil
that giows only poor grass and weeds, the
best of stock will become stunted and less
valuable. Nor will liberal feeding during
winter compensate for the half year ot
such summer treatment as that referred to
lor the reason that the best part of the
year in which to secure growth and condi
tion is frittered away. All neglected, cast
away lands, whether in timbered districts
or otherwise—aDd the kind mentioned is
equally common to prairie farms—should
be reclaimed, by being thoroughly broken
up, planted to a suitable crop, and alter
ward seeded down; if tor pasture alone,not
to one kind of gi&ss, but to two or three.
It is not otten enough rem< mbe red that it
should be a ltsditg object, if growing any
grain crop, to pave the way foi grass. It
is tolly to expect good pasture without
some preliminary preparaiion of soil for it.
At any rate, as a rule, no good yield can
be had util the land is tilled in such a man
ner as will insure good growth.
TUB PIG IN AGRICULTURE.— The pig has
recently been spoken of in (contempt when
compared with our domestic animals. B t
if we examine his good qualities at all
critically we must award him a nigh place
in agriculture. He is found to produce a
pound of product from less tood than
either cattle or sheep, aud is therefore, the
most economical machine to manufacture
our great corn crop into marketable meat.
Our people are becoming wiser every year,
and exporting less, proportionately, of the
raw material of condensed product. If it
takes seven pounds of corn on the average
to make a pound of pork, as is no doubt
the case, the farmer begins to see the eccn
omy of exporting one pound of pork,bacon
or ham, instead of seven pounds of corn.
The difference in cost of freight makes a
fine paofit of itself; besides, the pound of
meat is usually worth more than 7 pounds
ccrn in the foreign market. The produc
tion of pork should be encouraged on the
further consideration that it carries off less
of the valuable constituents of the soil than
beef. The fat pig contains only three
fourths as much mineral matter per cwt.as
the fat steer, and only two-fifths as much
nitrogen per cwt.; and theiefore the pro
duction of a ton of pork on the farm will
carry off only a little more than half the
ferti'ity carried off by a ton of beef Be.
sides, a ton of beef will require nearly 50
per cent, more to produce it. This gives
in round numbers the comparative effect
of producing pork and beef. It is thus
evident that the pig should have a high
place in cur agriculture; should be fostered
in every way; his capabilities studied ano
pushed; Lis diseases caretuily noted and
prevented, for he is the most profitable
meat-pioducing animal on the farm. The
pig is an excellent adjunct to the dairy,
turning all refuse milk and evenwhev into
cash. As he is king of our meat exports,
so let us treat him with great consideration.
To AVOID GRAPE ROT. —Grape ro:>tß are
gene-ally p'aoted about eight feet apart,
an i from two to three shoots are allowed
to grow from each root. Very eady ID
the Spring the vines are trimmed close
and short. The young shoots pui out
very clo*e together, and form a great mass
of leaves wiih the bunohes of grapes un
derneath, almost or quite hidden from the
sun's rays Tua result of all this is thai
the vines are permitted to overbear, the
grapes are hidden from tie sun's rays.and
they lot and tall off, and the owner theie
of bemoans h s bad luck of not having a
large quantity of this most luscious trait
to eat and sell, and if he likes to made
into wine to tickle his own palate and that
of his friend or friends. Now, let me sug
gest the remedy. If I can. Plant the vines
16 feet apart, instead of eight. Trim Uem
along the trellis or on top of the arbor, and
give each line an abundance of length, and
cut off all but one vine from each root,
then the bunches of grapes will have an
abundance of air, light and sun's rays,and
i venture the opinion that the rot will not
make its appeoranoe.
A GOOD deal of care must be observed in
banking up celery. If the earth is applied
when the stalks are wet the celery will be
liable to rust, and it is neceseary to he
careful not to get the earth into the heart
of the plants, because in such an event it
will also cause rust. From this time up
to the appearance of frost, celery should
be banked at least once a week, but in so
doing the plants should not be clogged with
the earth. A little of that article ala time
is much better than to cover the plants al
most up, and then wait a month or six
weeks before banking it up again.
JN the summer, arter the hatching time
is passed, collect from thirty to fifty dozen*
(or buy them fresh, when eggs are 15 to
25 cents a dozen), and prepare a liquid,
thus: One pint of common salt, one pint
of lime, dissolve m four gallons of boilirg
water, let it settle, and put the eggs ino
the liquor in stons jars when cold. Cover
the eggs entirely in the liquid, aud use
"stone," and noi soft crockery ware jars.
On no account use casks, wooden firkins,
tubs, or anything but stone vessels. Thus
embedded, eggs will |keep for 12 months
and come out in good shape.
WARM skim milk mixed with a moder
ate quantity of crushed and scalded oats
makes the most excellent food for raising
good dairy animals. Alternate the oats
with linseed and cottonseed meal These
foods contain large amounts of bone and
muscle material and will give the cow a
good constitution and a well-formed frame.
FOB general purposes on the farm cas
tor oil, with a little kerosene added, is the
best lubricator and preserver. For saws,
mowers, buggies and the like.this mixture
furnishes more body with less gum than
most other oil. The amount of kerosene, if
any, to be added must be governed by the
purpose for which it is designed.
DOMESTIC.
WASHING WITH HARD WATER.—TO
those who have to use hard water for
washing, this method may bo recom
mended: Procure a large barrel, set it
close to the well, and let some one who
is ablo, if you are not, All it with water;
then put in two panfuls of wood ashes,
skim off the coals, let it stand two days
at least; wash your white clothes as for
boiling, soap them, aud lay them in a
clean tub; have sufficient broken water
boiling hot to cover them, pour it on
them, and cover immediately with one
or two thick woolen blankets, and let
them stand uutil the next morning; then
wring them out, aud you have a splen
did suds with which to wash your col
ored clothes, also with tho broken water,
and your clothes will look as nice and
whi teas if you had used rain-water.
This is a good way for women who are
net strong, as they are not so liable to
overwork as if they did it all in one day.

PROTECTION FROM LIGHTNING. —AU
extremely cheap aud simple way of pro
tecting houses from the effects of light
ning is reported to have been recently
made in France. It consists merely of
straw attached to sticks or broom-han
dles and placed on the roofs of houses
in an upright position. The first trials
of this simple apparatus were made at
Tarbes (Hautes Pyrenees) by some intel
ligent agriculturists, aud the result was
so satisfactory that afterwards eighteen
oommunes of the Tarbes district provi
ded all their houses with these bundles
of straw, and there have been no acci
dents from lightning since in the district.

"Why, my dear—" "Don't you 'dear'

me why you kissed that horrid thing?"
"Why, you see," he stammered, as he
waited for bis gigantic intellect to help
liiin out of the scrape, "I just wanted
to get a taste of what we were going to
have for dinner." The excuse was a
lame one. but as the cook's mouth was
greasy from soup-sampling, the offence
was condoned—on the strength of a

The above la a pood Hkenew of Mr*. Ljdla E. Pink,
bam, of Lynn, Mius., who above all other human being*
may be truthfully called the "Dear Friend of Woman,"
aa mme of her corrcapondente lore to call her. She
la aealoualy devauxl to her work, which ia the outoom*
of a lifeatudy, and ia obliged to keep six lady
aaaiatante, to help her answer the large correspondence
which daily poura in upon her, each bearing Its special
burden of suffering, or Joy at release from it. Her
Vegetable Compound ia a medicine for good and not
evil purposes. 1 have personally Investigated it and
am satisfied of the truth of thla.
On account of its proven merits, it la recommended
and prescribed by the best physicians in the country.
One asyat "It works like a charm and savee much
pain. It will cure entirely the worst form of failing
of the uterus, Leucorrhcea, Irregular and painful
Menstruation,all Ovarian Troubles, Inflammation and
Ulceration, Kloodlngs, all Displacements and the con
sequent spinal weakness, and ia especially adapted to
the Change of Life."
It permeates every portion of the system, and gives
new life and vigor. It removes faintnees, flatulency,
destroys all craving for stimulants, relieves weak
ness of the stomach. It cures Bloating, Headaches,
Nervous Prostration, General Debility, Sleeplessness,
Depression and Indigestion. That feeling of bearing
down, causing pain, weight and backache. Is always
permanently cured by Its use. It will at all times, and
under all circumstances, act In harmony with the law
that governs the female system.
It costs only $1 per bottle or six for gS , and is sold by
druggists. Any advice required as to special cases, and
the names of many who have been restored to perfect
health by the use of the Vegetable Compound, can be
obtained by addressing Mra P., with stamp for reply,
at her home In Lynn, Masa
For Kidney Complaint of either sex this compound is
unsurpassed aa abundant testimonial* show.
"Mra Piukham'H Liver Pills," says one writer, " are
the beet in the tror/<i for tits curs of Constipation,
Biliousness and Torpidity of the liver. Her Blood
Purifier works wonders in its special line ami bids fair
to equal the Compound in its popularity.
All must reelect her as an Angel of Mercy whose sols
