BOUSE. AMD FARM,
A Sasgeront Paper .
The green paper used to wrap
about lozenges, sold in shops, rail
road pars, and on street Corners,. has
long been suspected ; to contain
arsenic, and with the view of ascer
taining the facts by analysis, we
recently purchased a roll of lozenges
covered by this paper.
\ qualitative examination of the
papers afforded all the characteristic
reaction for arsenic and copper.
The wrapper contained twenty
square inches of paper. Of this
sixteen were taken for quantitative
analysis. Th° result of the exami
nation showed this portion contain
ed 1516 grammes, or 2.34 grains of
metallic arsenic. *
This is equivalent to 2.94 grains in
the whole of the wrapper*
sufficient to destroy life in an adult
person. Children in all parts of the
country are allowed to purchase the
lozenges covered with this poisonous
paper, and the rolls are often put
into the hands of infants, as a play
thing. As everything goes into the
mouth of young children, it is easy
to see that no more dangerous sub
stance can pass into a family than
packages of confectionery. It is
quite probable that instances of
poisoning have occurred from this
cause, which have been of a serious
or fatal character. There should be
laws prohibiting the use of poison
ous papers for any purpose.—Jour
naliof Chemistry. &
Cooking Food for Stock.
The advantage of cooking food
for stock, especially milch cows and
young stock, is fast becoming one
of the. settled questions in agricul
ture. We hardly? know a dairyman
who does not pour boiling water
over his cut hay and meal or bran,
even if he does not cook it by steam-
It is found to ecoraise feed, to
increase the flow of milk and pro
mote appetite. Cows will eat much
more of cut hay and feed streamed
or moistened with boiling water,
than they wi)l of dry food ; and we
hold itis; llie true policy of the
dairyman to induce his cows to eat
us anic h as possible,. as the more
they take in by the way of food, the
more will be sriven out in the form
ot milk. To stint cows at all in an
ample supply of proper food to keep
up nutriment, and promote milk se
cretion, can only be called “a penny
wise and a pound foolish” ; policy.
It will not pay. When roots are
also boiled or steamed, the nutritive
matter they contain is more fully
developed, and the same weight of
roots produces larger results, both
in the condition of the cow and in
her milk secretion. Practical

Hints for Housekeepers.
Frozen custard is a nice dish for
dessert and easily prepared. Boil
two quarts of rich milk. Beat
eiirht eggs and a teacupfal of sugar,
Hirring all the while. Pour the
whole mixture into your kettle, and
ltl it come to a boil, stirring it con
‘t.imiv. Then take it off the fire,
ail( l it become cold. Flavor it
"uh whatever essence you prefer.
Then freeze it.
A Pennsylvania lady, after an ex
igence of twenty twenty-two years,
£"es the following method of treat-
I:i s m 'lk for making butter in win
ter - Strain the milk in the tin pans,
filing only half full—a little more or
ss will make no difference, then as
un as convenient set the pans of
“'ilk on stove, where let them
[ (rnam until a roughness or yvrlnk
, appearance on the top of the milk
* Sliced (if the milk gets too hot
only uarm will be less pream,)
take it in the milk room or
lar u] a cool place until the next
when it is generally ready to
* iln - When treated in this way
| l " ’ll not do to skim much under
ort y-eight nours.
% plan is to skim morning and
oht s milking both at the same
‘ n winter. It does not hurt
a ter tor the cream to sour—rather
Us ’n churning, making butter
sooner. The cream kettle I
e P in the cellar until the day or
jj. en iug bef ore J w i s ii to churn; then,
convenient, set near a coal stove
j n °^ e fire is kept in all night.
tr ? m ormng, before churning,
a thermometer; it should
a the temperature of sixty-two j
degrees. If not convenient to set
the cream near a warm stove,; set
ting the kettle in hot water will
answer every purpose. Many per*
sons object to heatidg the milk, be
cause the milk sometimes burns to
the bottom of the pans.
To avoid this, set pans containing
water on the stove and place the
pans with milk in these, and the
difficulty is at once avoided. If
butter needs coloring I would prefer
carrot, which is prepared by scrap
ing off the outside and washing,
then grate into a small portion of
the cream .and strain this into the
whole. I Would say never wash
batter, use as little water about but
ter p.s possible. This is my experi
ence, having washed butter to my
satisfaction, always having it go
strong in a few days after. I have
tested many ways to avoid heating
milk in winter, but have found noth
ing as satisfactory as what I have
given.
Agricultural Exhibltloihl
If a man goes to one of these ex
hibitions with bis eyes open, he will
learn, more than in any other place,
the importance of combining brain
and hand labor. It is by the appli
cation of brain and hand labor that
the horses, cattle, sheep and swine,
have attained a state of prefection.
By spending a day among the best
specimens of these animals, a farmer
even of moderate brain capacity
will learn the ways, and means of
improving his own stock, and of
raising larger crops at a less expen
diture, and gain much other useful
information.
The occupation of the farmer de
velops the whole map. Though he
he may not know it, or be able to
define any of the sciences, he mast,
to some extent, become a chemist,
botanist and naturalist; this, too,
while working year after year with
out opening a book on any of those
subjects. Labor and thought should
go hand and hand, lending their
aid to each other. And as he
labors and thinks, he will occasion
ally catch an idea of, the source of
that sunshine that lights up even
the log cabin, as nothing but a
faithful and loving wife can do. It
is as much a duty and should be the
pleasure of every farmer to seek, by
all laudable means, to increase and
prolong these beams of sunshine, as
it is to provide fosd and shelter for
those dependent on him.
As a means to this end, he should
encourage every effort made by wife
apd children to make and exhibit at
these gatherings such articles of
utility and taste as may come with
in their means. They doubtless
would like to enjoy becoming part
and parcel in these agricultural
jubilees. What a change from the
routine of daily toil to ride a few
miles to see what others have done
in the various departments of indus
try, and learn at what a trifling ex
pense many things can bo made tnat
will contribute to the convenience
and adornment of the house!—Lan
sing Republican.
Cross Breeding of Hens.
In deciding whether we are to
keep pure or cross breeds, we are to
keep in view our particular aims.
If the purpose is to obtain eggs, it
is generally better to use the pure
breeds, because the most eggs are
produced by those species which do
not set, and this trait is very apt to
disappear in crossing; at least it is
not regularly preserved. A sitting
and a non-sitting breed, produce a
cross that sits in almost every case;
two non-sitting breeds produce a
cross of v ,iieh by far the greater
part are setters. If it is intended to
raise fowls for the table, there is
much advantage in making a cross,
or at least no good reason for keep
ing the races pure. The first gen
eration from a proper cross produces
hardy chickens, of rapid growth and
good constitution. Beyond one
generation, however, it is not advis
able to continue the cross. —The
Poultry World.
A pudding without eggs be
made by taking one cup of rice to
one half gallon milk and one cup of
sugar. Bake until the rice is done.
I think it much nicer than with eggs.
Flavor to your taste. ;
When we cannot rejoice in God
as our song, let us stay upon him as
our strength.

WHAT THEY SAY OP “SMOKE.”
It wan a keen and humorbus exposure of the

laughter and applause. He was funny and instruc

It was a humorous lecture illustrated by an
abundance of witty and satirical anecdotes, ezhib

speaker, and showed in well defined style the value
of the real and tru e . —Abington Standard.
The lecture was received with laughter and ap
plause, as it revealed clouds of “Smoke” where
most people seldom look for toe.—Somerville

The feast of reason and fiow of sogl produced
such laughter and applause that it Is confidently
believed that certain dyspeptics in the audience
were permanently cured. Fast young men, 'ex
