How TO MAKE MUSH. —One of the earliest literary productions of this country that at tracted attention, was the poem by Joel Bar low, entitled "The Hasty Pudding. ' In it he sings the praise of this New England dish, and takes exceptions to its being called mush, samp, or any name except the one our fath ers gave. Mush, or hasty pudding as he would have us call it, is an American dish, and until lately, has never been met with over the water. But, notwithstanding the fact of its antiquity, its wonderful cheapness and its undisputed excellence, very few peo ple know how to make this dih as it should be. The ingredients for a dish of mush are water, salt and corn meal. The water should be soft, and the salt fine, and the meal of the first quality : yellow meal gives the best color, white meal is more easily cooked. The water should be boiling hot at the commence ment, middle and end of the operation. The meal should be added very slowly, so as to prevent lumps being formed, the cook stirring all the time, and should never be in such quantities as would bring down the tempera ture of the water below the boiling point. Herein lies the secret of making good mush. The reason that it requires a high degree of heat to cook Indian corn, is that the starch globules are very hard and compact, and re quire more heat to expand them than the starch particles contained in rice. Mush should be thoroughly cooked. — Prairie Farmer. DIS.IU,I"G WHEAT. —The season approach lor seeding down to wheat, we would urge the benefit of drilling in the seed w th a ma chine, instead of a broad-cast sowing. Nothing in agricultural practice, now a days, juaj he said to be better established than this, as every one knows who has tried it : and the reports last season in the Department &t Washington, from all sections of the country, showed the gain in bashels per acre to be in some section 20 to 25 per cent, with the drill ed wheat. It is found to be much less liable to bs thrown out by frosts or winter killed, and he free action of the uniform depth at which it is covered, causing an evenness in the growth, together with at least one neck less seed being required for sowing, are all advantages which belong to drilling connect ed also with securing a better taking of the grass seed. Drills as with other farm machinery, have been greatly improved the last few years, and are now constructed not only to sow wheat, oats, rye, Ac., in given qualities, but also to sow with it grass seed aud fertilizers in the rows, with the grain; so that the soil being previously well prepared, the whole is fin ished at ooe operation, and the ground left in niee, smooth condition. The ridges left by the drill are levelled down by the frosts of winter, giving additional protection to the tender root 3 of the grain and grass.—Practi cal Farmer. QUICK ASD EAST CUBE KOR FOUNDER. — Many years ago I learned a cure for founder in horses, which is so simple, and has proved so snccessfnl in my hands, that I send it to yon, thinking it may be of service to some of yonr readers. Clean out the bottom of the foot thoroughly—hold up the leg so as to bring to bottom upward, holding it firmly in horizontal position, and pour in, say a table spoonful of Spirits of Turpentine, if the cavi ty ot the hoof will hold that mnch —if not, pour in what it will hold, without danger of running over ; touch the Turpentine with a red hot irou, this will set it on fire ; hold the hoof firmly in position until it all burns out. Great care must be taken that none runs over ou the hair or the hoof, lest the skin be burned. If all the feet are affected burn turpentine in each of them. Relief will speedily follow and the animal will be ready for service in a short time. I once applied this remedy to a horse which had been found ered twenty-four hours before I saw him, and he was promptly relieved. In another case, where the animal could hardly be iuduced to move, his suffering was so great, he was treated in the same manner, as soon as his trouble was discovered, and iu less than an hour afterwards, he was hitched to a buggy and driven some twenty-five miles the same day—all lameness disappearing after he had traveled a few miles. — Southern Cultivator. SETTISG OCT STRAWBERRY BESS. —Straw, berry plants can now be set out from the mid dle of August to the end of September. It is true August is generally a very warm and very dry month, but in case of the absence of rain, the newly planted beds must be watered every day or two until they become established. The bed should not be in a damp situation or the soil heavy. Dig deep, pulverize finely, and apply a pretty heavy dose ot good barn yard manure. Let the divisions be about three and a half feet in width and as long as may be desirable. Set the plants about eigh teen inches apart, insert them in the gronud firmly but not deeply, and then keep clear of all grass and weeds. As to the varieties, we would choose for our own planting the fol lowing: "Triumph," "Russell," and "Ho vey," and if we wished another, Jucunda. They should be planted in this wise in making up a full bed, with half a dozen or a dozen divisions: 1 Triumph, 2 Jucunda, 3 Hovey, 4 Russell. In this way a fine crop is assured with as much certainty as anything can be. The last of November protect the plants wish a light covering of straw the first year; after that, if needed, light manure may be substi tuted as a covering. A half crop may be ex pected the first season. A mulch of straw cut two or three inches long will kpep the ground moist and cool, which this berry likes, and smother the weeds. This should be ap plied the first of April. An application of spent tan is also excellent.— Exchange. FOR BREAKFAST.—A lady correspondent sends as the following receipt for a breakfast dish, which she says serves for meat and po tatoes "Put into a common biscuit pan a heaping teaspoonful of butter, and let it melt and spread over the pan : then take enough slices of bread (stale answers as well as Bny) to cover the bottom of the pan, and make a mix ture to dip them in by beating well two eggs and pouring in milk enough to soak the bread ; season it with a very little pepper and salt—mare the bread quite moist; then lay it in butter and fry brown on one side, and, if too soft to turn, put iuto the oven to brown over the top, and you will have a dish that serves for meat and potatoes, consisting of neither, 'fell me if you like it ."—Hearth and Home. LAZY FARMERS. —Laziness prevents a man from getting off his horse to put up the first rail that gets knocked off the fence, and through this lazy neglect a whole field of corn ia seriously damaged. Laziness keeps a man from driving one nail when one would do, and finally costs a car penter s bill for extensive repairs. Laziness allows a gate to get off the hinges and lie in the mud, or stand propped by rails —or a stable or barn to leak and damage hundreds of dollars worth of provender. Laziness, in short, is the right and proper name for nine-tenths of the: excuses giveu for bad farming. But by far the most prolific of the many wastes that are due to laziness is the waste of ignorance. But this waste is in itself so great, and has so many ramifications, that we shall have to defer it's discussion for another time.— Dixie (Torn.) Farmer.

Error will slip thru a crack, while truth will get stuck in a doorway. The man who haz just found out he can't afford tew burn green wood has taken bis fust lesson in economy. There iz only one thing that can beat truth and that is he who alwus speaks it. It is hard work, at first sight, to see the wisdom of a rattlesnake bite, but there iz j thousands of folks who never think ov their j sins until they are bit by a rattlesnake. Thare iz a great deal ov humin natur in a crab; if you don't pick them up in the rite way you will discover it. 1 think now, if I had all the money that iz due me, I would invest it in a saw mill, and then "let her rip." Take the humbug out of this world, and you won't have much left to do bizziness with. Faith and curiosity are the gin cocktails of success. Advertising is sed tew be a certain means of success: some folks are so impressed with this truth that it sticks out ov their tomb stuns. Thare is this difference between ignorance : and error: ignorance is stone blind, and error j is short sighted: ignorance stands still and j error only moves to run agin a post. Ekooomy is a savings bank into which men drop pennys and git dollars in return. Thare is one thing you cant put out, and that iz your conscience: you may smuther it, but like a coal pit it contains the charred re. mains. The two richest men now living in America that i kno or, is the one who haz got most money and the other who wants the least; and the last one is the happiest of the two. Cerimony is the necessity of phools: good breeding is the luxury of the wise. Tew be agreeable iz simply tew be easily j pleased—if ibis iz so, how easy and pleasant ' it is tew be agreeable. There iz menny who wont know ennylhing i but what they kan prove—this accounts for the little they know. Mo3t people found out sumhow that they "kant serve God and ! mammon too," and so they serve mammon, j As OLR MOTHERS Do. —We were consider ably amused, the other day, at three little girls playing among the sage brush iu a back yard. Two of them were "making believe keep house" a few yards distant from each other —neighbors, as it were. One of them says , £o the third girl: "There, now, Nelly, you : go to Sarah's house, and stop a little while I and talk, and then you come back and tell me what she says about me ; and then I'll talk about her ; then you go and tell her all I say, and then we'll get mad and won't speak to I each other, just like our mothers do, you know. Ol that'll be such tun." A t'RIZE was recently offered to any mem ber of the Connecticut Teachers' Institute who would write and spell correctly the fo 1- lowing sentence: "It ia an agreeable sight to witness the un paralleled embarrassment of a harnessed ped dler attempting to guage the symmetry ot a peeled onion w.iich a sibyl bas stabbed with a poignard regardless of the inuendoes of the lilies of cornelian hue." Thirty eight competed for the prize but not one was successful. THE following story is told of an Irish news, paper editor. The foreman called down to him Irora the printing office: "We want six lines to fill out a column." "Kill a child at Waterford," washis reply. Soon after came a second message: "We have killed the child and still want two lines." "Contradict the same." A GENTLEMAN residing in Boston, as the story goes, seeing an Irishman removing an embankment from a dwelling, inquired, "Patrick, what arc you doing?" "I am opening the cellar window to be sure." "And what are you doing that for ?" "May it plase your honor," said Patrick, "to let out the dark." THE WRONG SHELL.—A high officer of the Sous of Temperance presented himself, with the smell of grog he had been drinking upon him, at the door of a "division" for admis sion, and was waited upon by an Irish senti nel, to whom he gave the password, when the following passed : "Sir," said he, "an' yez are Mr. O'Wright, the Grand Worthy Patriarch of the State of Kaintucky, I do be afther belavin." "Yes," said Jim, "you are perfectly right, my friend: but why do you ask the question?" "To tell you the truth, then, sir, and shame the devil," said Pat, "yez do be havin' the right password for a Son of Temperance, en tirely; but bejabers yez got the wrong smell." NEAR the village of M there lived a farmer who had engaged a son of ihe Era erald Isle to work tor him. One morning in the Spring Pat was sent to harrow a piece of ground, lie had not wo;l td long before all the teeth—except two or three—came out of the harrow. After a while the farmer went out in the field to see how, Pat proceeded, and asked him how he liked harrowing. "Oh," replied Pat, "it goes a bit smoother now since the pegs are out." A POOR Irishman, who applied for a license to sell ardent spirits in one of the vincial towns of England, being questioned to moral fitness, replied. "Och, an it's there ye are —sure an it's not much of a character a man needs to se'l whisky ?" "WHAT makes you so grum, Tom?" "Ob, I have had to endure a sad trial to my feel ings." "What on earth was it?" "Why, I had to tie on a pretty girl's bonnet while her ma' was looking on." A CITIZEN of Indiana, who had the expe rience of eight wives, says that divorces are much cheaper than funerals as away of dis posing of an uncongenial partner. A RAPTCRED writer inquires, "What is there under heaven more humanizing, or, we may use the term, more angelizing, than a fine black eye in a lovely woman?" Twc black eyes is the only answer thought of at present. "PAPA, do horses ever kick with their fore feet?" "No, child, they never do." "Well, if a horse should kick with one of his hind feet, would that not be one of his four?" TEACHER —"Peter, you are such a bad boy, that you are not fit to sit in the company of good boys on the bench. Come up here and ■it by me, sir." W HAT home in after life is beloved like the walls that girt around the innocent oay of our childhood. THE idle should not be classed among tbe living: they are a sort of dead men who can not be buried. THE praises of others may be of use, in teaching us, not what we are, but what we ought to be.
