Oitlrtvntlng Celery.
Celory is ono of tlio most ngrcoablo
nn wiioiesotiio pinuu iirowii in tlio cnr
don. It Is gunerrilly clnltnud tlmt it
lias n quieting effect on tlio nervous
system, mid celery liollct, in milk
is recommended as a remedy fo
rheumatism. At any rato, celory is t
uood tlilnt? to have in llin hoiiao. mid
every farmer slidiiU make it a point to
navo a good bed of It. The Amcri'
can Agriculturist has the following
suggestion in regard to its cultivation :
"l'lio old method of setting celery at
mo uoiiom ot a trench is still occasion
ally followed, either by uardners who
have done this in the old country, or
by our own people, who havo not learn
ed tno lienor way; ot planting it on the
Niirface. Celory is ono of the plants
with which liltfu is gained by hurrying)
it will not grow rapidly until after mid
summer, when wo havo tho favoring
condition of warm days and cool, dewy
nights, and our most uxerienced gar
deners do not set out the main crop
until tho next mouth. Market garden
crs grow celery as a second crop, to
follow an early one, for which the soil
has been well manured t if this cannot
ba done, then the soil must bo well en
riched before planting. It rarely pays
to raise celery plants in a privato gar
den, if one is whero they can bo pur
chased. In buying plants select thoso
that look strong and stocky, a condition
procured by proper cutting back their
leaves while in tho seed bed. The
plants aro to bo set in the rows, four
feet npart, and six inches distant in tho
rows i thoy require careful planting,
and should bo no deeper in tho ground
than thoy were originally in tho seed
bed. In alt transplanting, it is impor
tant to havo tho earth closely in contact
with tho roots of tho nowly'set plant j
this may be done going along tho row
and pressing on each side of tho plant
with the foot, or by carefully crowding
the earth down with tho bauds as each
plant is set. If a cloudy time cannot
bo selected for planting, then do tho
work towards evening, and givo a
thorough watering. The plants have
nothing further done to them until
September, when the leavos aro brought
to an upright position, and tho earth is
drawn around to hold them there. In
tho meantime tho celery has nothing to
do but to grow, in which it must be en
couraged by hoeing or cultivating of
ten enough to destroy all weeds and
keep the soil loose, taking care in theso
operations to not throw any dirt into
the heart of tho plants,
Devon Oows for Butter.
AVe have been looking over reports
of what Devon cows havo just been
doing in tho butter line among us,
and find that nineteen of tho cows
havo been producing from 15 to 20
lbs. 5 or., each of beat quality of but
ter per week. Considerinc their me
dium size and economy of keep, theso
arc great yields ; but in years gone by,
there are records of still larger yields,
nearly equalling thoso of tho most
famous Jerseys of tho present day.
The Dovons, however, not only excel
in tho dairy, but in several other in
spects. They aro very superior work
ing oxen, have a quicker step and
greater endurance than any other
breed, and nro the most powerful of all
for their size. When fattened, thoy
turn out a choice quality of beef.
Thus wo see that they are a most ex
cellnt general purpose breed good in
tho dairy, for work, and for tho sham
bles. Tlio only other cattle that can
bo compared to them in uniting so
many superior qualities nro tlio Red
Polled Noi folk and Suffolk, which, iu
fact, aro hornless Dovons.
Tho Dovons havo boGii much neg
lected by the public for twenty years
or so past, both in England and in
America j but attention is now awak
ening to their great merits, and wo
havo no doubt they will soon come
Into as high favor again as formerly ;
for, Aside from their Polled congeners,
no cattle aro so profitably brod and
raised on light pastures, and hilly,
rocky districts.
At a public sale of eighty-six lots of
Devons the past year in England,
they averaged $180 each. One cow
of these sold for 025, and a bull for
$875, while a calf brought 50 guineas
($250). Theso are about 25 per cent,
higher prices than the average of any
herd of cither Guornsoy, .Terse', or
Ayrshiro cattle sold for in England in
tho year 1882. We can learn from
this tho appreciation of Dovons in
their own native land. American
Agriculturist far May.
Peed the Crow and Save the Corn.
Tlio only complaint that farmers
over had to urge against the crow was,
that it would pull up tho young corn
sprouts just after they mako tlioir ap
pearance above ground. Whilo wo
freely admit that it is guilty of this
pilfering, it still, with tho ordinary
protection we can givo tho cornfield
for two weeks, does tho farmer a deal
yoa, five times more good than
harm in tho destruction of the myriads
of injurious insects whioh wo must
give it credit for. Hut there is a way
a very cheap and simple way by
which this useful bird upon the farm
can bo befriended, and at tho samo
time wo can bo protecting the corn
field ngainst its depredations. It must
bo rcmombered that tho crow never
oats grain of any kind without being
soaked or made soft, and this is tlio
reason why it pulls up the young corn
sprouts,, to get at tho pulpy grain ad
hering to tho root. Well, this fact
being remembered, wo will soak half a
peck of seed corn in .water for twenty
four hours, or until it becomes quite
soft, and scatter it over the adjoining
fields, whero it will he found by our
black friends i and repeating this
onco or twice, or as often ns may bu
necessary, wo will find that tho planted
corn will bo, wholly undisturbed
This will require a very small amount
of labor and an oxponso of perhaps
not over half a dollar while at the
samo time it will savo other and more
troublesome; ntjd costly arrangements
for prot.cet.ing tho cornfield, pro
aorvo a 'valuablo insect destroyer, and
secure to us the companionship of a
wary, glossy, usofi)!, domestic bird,
ono of tho most pleasing and desirable
members of the winged fauna of the
country.

Cultivation of Orchards. '

Marshall 1'. Wilder, a good atithoruv
upon matters pertaining to lruit grow
iug, onco said in it discussion before
tho Massachusetts Hoard of Agricul
ture : "In a word, until orchards are
ten or moro years of age, no crop ex
ccpt vegetables should be permitted to
occupy tho ground i aud then if grass
is grown, tho laud must bo regularly
manured, so as to sustain both crops

A New Way to Keep Apples. ,
l)v. ftcxamcr says that somo years
ago, when ho had more apples than ho
could store, ho hired a cellar of a
neighbor, and put in several hundred
barrels. When he camo to take them
out ho found water in the cellar1 -three
or four feet deep, and concluded, thev
were a dead loss till ho examined them.
Some weeks afterward hd found them
in an excellent 'condition, better than
thoso which the water had riot reached.
The result was ascribed to tho low
temperature and exclusion of air,- to
which wo .would add a umlorm degree
ot cold, and freedom from tho fluctua
tions caused by air currents. Wo sup
poso tho water was near or at tho
freezing point. An objection to this
modo of keeping .apples is tho dilli-
culty of puttiug it into practico to any
extent. Oountru Gentleman.
Tho Country Gentleman; in re
sponse to a request from a correspond
ent for a cure tor horses which have
contracted tho habit of pulling at tho
halter, says : "Take a suflicientlvlong
piece of half inch rope. Put tho com
tie' of it under tho tail like a crupper,
cross the rope on tho back and tio the
two ends together in front of the
beast snugly so that their is no slack,
other wiso it would drop down on tho
tail. Put an ordinary halter;strap or
rope through a ring in tho manger or
in front of tho stall and tio jt fast in,
tho rope on the front of the breast ;
then slap his face and let him fly back.
Ho will not choke or need tejllngto
stop pulling back. Let him wear, it
awhile, and twice or thrice daily scare
him back as suddenly and forcibly as
possible. After one or two trials you
will see that ho cannot bo iuduccd" to
pull back."
K.U.SOM1HK. Eight pounds of whit
ing and one quarter of a pound of
whito gluo make the right proportion.
Soak the glue over night in cold water,
and in the morning heat till it is per
fectly dissolved. Mix tho whiting with
hot water, stir tho two thoroughly- to
gether, and havo the wash tho consis
tency of thick cream. Apply warm
with a kalsomino brush, brushing it
well in nnd finishing it as you go. on,
If warm skim milk is used instead of
water, tho gluo may bo admitted. I)o
foro tho wash is applied all hdles and
crevices should be stopped with plaster
of Paris mixed with water. Colors to
tint tho walls may be procured at any
paint store. If zinc whito is used in
steady of whiting, it will last for years.
Tho first expense is more, but tho' jnJ
vestment pays. Use first a sizing of
white glue.
To Wash II.uk Hnusnr.s. It is best
to clean two at a time, in this way;
First comb them well to remove tho
loose hair or dust, thou dip bristles only
in very warm water, sprinkle each brush
with plenty of powdered borax and rub
tho two together; after they aro thor
oughly cleansed hnvo a pitcher of hot
water and pour it over tho bristles.
Keep tlio back of the brushes ns diy as
possible. Shako tho water well out and
dry quickly in the sun. Brushes wash
ed in this way will retain their stiff
ness. CiiMKxr. Litharge and glycerlno.
mixed together to the consistency of
thick cream or putty is a valuablo co-,
ment for mouding stone jars, for aquar
ium purposes, for stopping leaks in
seams of tin pans or wash boileis, to
fasten on lamp tops, tighten loose
joints of wood or iron, loose bqxus in
wagon hubs, aud for a great many otliJ
er things. The article should not bo used
until tho cumont has hardened, which
will require from ono day to n week, ac
cording to tho quantity used. This co
ment will resist tho action of water,
cold or hot, of acids and of almost any
degree of heat.
A funny story is told of tho wife of
ono ol tho most noted Admirals of the
country. The lady is a society worn,
nn, nnd she prides herself on her re
membrance of people. She nlways
endeavors to make herself agreeable,
and is as pleasant to strangers us
though shn had known them for years.
A year ago meeting Coinmodoro Blank
at a dinner tnble, she said, "Why, my
dear Commodore, I am so glad to seo
you 1 How is your wife 1"
"She is dead, madam," was the blunt
reply.
Of course the Admiral's wife apolo
gized for not knowing what should
havo been a well-known fact aud n
fact which bIio had in reality heard but
had forgotten.
Tho other day this same lady met
the samo Coinmodoro at a party. Who
was apparently delighted to boo him,
and, in tho start of their conversation,
sho said : "Now, Commodore, I want
you to tell me, how is your dear wifol",
Sho wa4 thrown into surpriso rind
consternation by tho reply, "Madam',
