FARM, HARDEN AND HOI SEHOLD.
___
The l.lvea at Farnn' W'ltm.
I, n farmer'* wife, insist that our lives
may be the moat independent, the freest
from anxiety, of all the women in the
land. We often hear the proverb that
"it ia not work but worry that kill*," '
* ami as it rests with the wife to plan the
three meals, the care is very much les
aoned if she knows that the cellar ami
pantry are well stocked with treats, vege
tables,' fruits, boxes of honey, jars of
pickles, bags of dried pom and beaus,
etc., besides milk, cream and bntter, all
of which can so easily Ist produced on a
well managisl farm. Contrast with this
the cares of the wife ef the mechanic or
of the proleaaional man, who must semi
out to half a doaen places to gather the
materials for her Saturday's baking.
Again, I aiu at a loss to understand
why it ia any more drudgery for a
farmor'a wife to keep a house in order or
to oook her husband's dinner than it is
for other women, or why it ia drudgery
at all. The frequent repetition of an
act only makes it easier. If a woman
will wash dishes in the right way, alie
need not "go on forever." 1 agree that
nothing can take the place of a good
broom, bnt 1 know from experience that
a washing machine with a wringer at
tached washes as fast as three women,
with loan labor and a great saving to the
clothes. 1 have frequently done the
week's wishing for a family of six in
two hours, and with little fatigue. And,
again, in this age of cheap sewing ma
chines, if a womau needs to sew until
late at night, it is because she ia a slave
to the fashions of the day, which re
quire her children's clothing to be tuck
t.l ami ruffled uutil the time and labor
of making tliem is increased fourfold.
1 ilou't profess to lie a model wife, uor
y k t a model housekeeper, but 1 would Uko
to impart a secret or two to thOM women
who, to use their owu phrase, " never
* have a moment of their owu." One is,
alwavs put a thing lack iu its place after
you liave used it, and require it of your
children. 1 don't say of your huabaub,
because as yon did not bring him up
Km are uot responsible for his habits ;
it there are few men who will volun
tarily add to a wife's burdens by habits
of disorder. Another secret is h have
certain daya for eertaiu work—baking
days, churning days, and sweeping days
—and dou't plan anvtiling for the after
noon, reserve that {or rest and sewing,
so that after an early supper you can
spend an hour in the garden.
It is a great pity that ao few of our
American women take an interest m gar
deuiug. 1 know of few things more
pleasant tluui the gathering of vegetabh s
that I have planted and cultivated with
my owu hands. A garden hoe or rake
is as easily handled as a broom, and it is
much easier to transplant tomatoes cur
sift lime over the early cabbages than
make out loaves of bread, ao that tiie
t xcuae that it is hard work falls to the
ground.
I suppose there are all kinds of hue
bands in the laud, but those I am
acquainted with are more than willing
to provide their wives with help in the
kitchen, or relieve them from the labor
of cooking for the hired men, if they
prefer garden or dirv work. 1 believe
that many women make slaves of them
selves, quite unnecessarily, by sup
posing tiiat they must always have a
loaded Üble, when half the numlier of
disht s, well cooked, would do quite as
well. In conclusion, our Uvea an*
pretty much what we make them, and if
we cultivate a disc mtented spirit, and
accustom ourselves to thinking that our
everyday duties arc drudgery, why, of
course, we will feel oppressed and un
happy, but a contrary disposition and a
little method and good management will
work wonders.
The liutlfi.
Cassaba, Ward's Nectar, Prolific Nut
meg, and White Japan melons are all
good ; sow in rich hills six feet apart,
when the soil is warm.
South of New York onions succeed
best from sets ; plant early in very rich
soil in drills fifteen inches apart. When
they can be grown from seeds sow the
same distance apart; the soil cannot be
too fine and rich ; sow early. Wethers
field Red, Early Red, and Yellow Dan
vers are standard sorts. For gardens
potato and top oniona are often used,
set in drills fifteen inches apart, and
four inches apart in drill.
Sow the Double or Moss Curled
parsley early in open ground, or gentle
not-bed.
Sow Hollow Crowned parsnips as
soon as the soil can be worked, in drills
eighteen inches apart.
Carter's First Crop, or some other
round pes, may be sown when the
ground thaws. Alpha is the earliest of
the wrinkled peas, but needs warmer
weather. Wh n Champion of England
comes, no other pea is wanted. Little
Gem, Premium Gem, and Blue Peter
are good dwarf sorts, requiring no
sticks, and useful to fill odd spaces.
Squash peppers for pickling, and
Sweet Mountain for stuffing, may be
sown like egg plants.
Put some early sorts of potatoes in a
warm place to sprout, and plant for
early as soon as frost is out Alpha and
"Snowflake are new and eery ?arly. Early
Vermont and Early Rose a little later,
and good.
Radishes may be sown very early in
open ground or may be forced in a
frame. French Breakfast, Early Tur
nip, and Olive-shaped are good short
varieties; the Long Scarlet for long.
Salsify and soorzonera, there is but
one variety of each, sow the same as
parsnips.
Uncover spinach that wintered over
when heavy frosts are passing, and hoe
iietween the rows. Sow seed of Koucd
leaved early ; New Zealand, for mid
summer, may be sown in May.
SumnKT Crookneck squashes are the
beet busli. Boston Majrow, Yokohama,
Hubbard, and Butman, are favorite late
torts. A few for early may be started
under glass in pots or on sods.
Sow tomatoes, in hot-bed and trans
plant to boxes or another hot-bed, or
where there are but a few, to small pots;
the object is to get a hkt ong stocky
plant, to set out as soon as it is safe.
Conqueror and Canada Victor for early,
and Trophy for the rest of the season,
have not been excelled.
White Dutch, or Red Top Strap-leaf
turnips for early, and Long White
French, is the best late. Get in the
early sorts as soon as the ground is
ready.— Agriculturist.

To make a whitewash bur farm build
gtts put into a common wixxleu pail a
few luuuwt of fresh lime, about a quarter
of a peek, and add water until the pail
is nearly full. When the lime is slaked
the mixture should bo about the con
siatency of cream. This may bo applied
while fresh with a broad brush. If color
is required, some Spanish brown may lav
added to make a free stone or brown
atone color, as may bo desired. A more
durable wash, that will answer as a
paint, is made as follows: Take half a
bushel of fresh lime, slake it in a tub 1
with boiliug water, keeping it covered
meanwhile; when slaked strain through
a fine sieve, add seven pounds of salt
jirevtoualv dissolved in hot water, three
pounds of ground rice boiled to a thin
paste and stirred iu the liquid while hot,
one-half pound powdered Spanish whit
ing, and one pound of clean glue dis
solved in hot water; to this five gallons
of hot water is then added, ami the
whole is well stirred, when it is left to
stand a few days. When wanted for use
it is to be heated in a large kettle and j
put on hot One pint of this will cover
a square vard. and it will not wash off.
If color is desired, Sjausish brown is
added to suit
New York Fashions.
A fashion journal thus describes the
latest novelty, the Lafayette sack: The
marked fcainro of the Lafayette sack is
the long aide forms iu the back, begin
ning in the shoulder seams. These give
the long waisted appearance now
thonght desirable for garments that
cover the body, whether basques, sacks,
or mantles. These side fonns slope
gracefully over the to urn ore without a
wrinkle at fallnesa, and fit closely enough
about the body to display the outlines of
the figure.
The loose easy shape of this back is
destroyed if it is belted to the waist by
an inside twit, as sacks have been done
of late. The front liangs partly open,
and is deeply pointed, making it much
longer than the back. The collar is
turned over in Byron shape. The coat
sleeves are large enough to be drawn on
easily without crushing the cuffs and
frilla of dress sleeves. The Lafayette
sack may be made of any of the stylish
materials used for separate wraps that
are to be worn with a variety of ureases,
such as cashmere, drap d'ete, camel's
hair, Sicilienne, summer cloth, or black
repped silk, or else it may be made of
the material of the costume with which
it is worn. The sack used for our model
is of black cashmere, trimmed with Titan
braid and fringe. This black cashmere
of the heavier drap d'ete will continue
to be the accepted fabric for wraps that
are used for general wear. Novelties
have been introduced, but mthing seems
to please so well as lais soft, finely
twilled wool. It should be lined
throughout with farmer's satin (wLieli
may be bought for eighty seven and one
half cents a yard) or with thin lining
silk. The wool braids from one to threw
inches broad are chosen for trimming
plain wraps, while for more elaborate
ones silk galloon is used. Fringes are
of the most elaborate kind; closely fold
. e>l knife plaiting* of silk are also used
' for edging such wraps.
A novelty that is worn now with din
ner dresses, and will be widely adopted
with summer dresses, is the lace belt.
This consists cf a strip of Valenciennes
insertion, edged with narrow lace laid
over ailk like the dress or in contrast
with it, and fastened on the left side by
a knot of long loops of ribbon and two
flowing ends. Made of Italian Valen
ciennes over (Team, rose, cardinal ml,
or pale blue filk, this belt is sold for $2.
Ladies can make for themselves similar
belts to mate! their ecru laoe parurrs,
and to wear rith the collarettes and
flohos that now brighten all dark toi
lettes.
Wages Kant and West.
Wages are considerably higher at the
West than at the East, judging from the
accounts in the New York and Cincin
nati papers. In New York carpenters'
wages are down to 82, bricklayers' to
$2.50, and laborers* to sl, while in Cin
cinnati carpenters get from 82.75 to $3,
bricklayers $5, and laborers $1.75.
Eastern and Western wage* compare
similarly through tlie whole range of
building trades. Wages in Cincinnati
ahow curiously the effect of the large
German population. In the breweries,
bakeries and barber shop*—all trade* in
which the Germans are expert—wages
are very low. Young men can be hail
for $2 a week in the bakeries, which
ought to result in chean bread. It
would be a great relief to American
housewives if the universal cheap
bakery of the Germans could be induced
to squat in every neighborhood. Cigar
makers at Cincinnati only get sl2 a
week; machinists, $2 a day; shoe mak
ers, on the other baud, enjoy the excep
tional favor of the building trade, and
get from sl2 to $22 a week, their wages
being higher than they were three years
ago. The activity of some of these
manufactures at tho West is one good
reason why they are dull at the East,
and shows the necessity of the severest
retrenchment in taxation, rents, profits,
interest, ambitions, and all the condi
tions of industry if we are to retain our
hold on industries which we have been
wont tp oonsider our own..
Be Economical.
"Take care of the pennies." Look
well to your spending. No matter what
comes in, if more goes out you will be
always poor. The art is not in making
money, but in keeping it. Little ex
penses, like mice in a barn, when they
are many, make great waste. Hair by
hair, heads get bald; straw by straw the
thatch goes off the cottage, and drop by
drop the rain comes into the chamber.
A larrel is soon empty, if the tap leaks
bnt a drop a minnte. When you mean
to save, begin with yoor month ; many
thieves pass down the red lane. The
ale jug ia a great waste. In all other
things keep within oompaas. Never
stretch your legs further than your
blankets will reach, or you will soon be
cold. In clothes choose suitable and
lasting staff, and not tawdry fineries.
To be warm is the main thing, never
mind the looks. A fool may make money,
but it needs a wise man to spend it.
Remember, it is easier to bnild two
chimneys than to keep one going. If
yon give all to back and board, there is
nothing left for the savings bank. Fare
hard and work hard when yon are
yonug, and you will have a chance to
rest when you are old.

A Want Dng Frit.
The child of an American family trav
eling on the continent was taking bro
mide (t/rumurr) of potassium internally,
while its father aas using cyanide (eva
tiurr) of the same base exterual'y for
neuralgia. The latter preparation was
to be applied warm and the bottle had
been placed in hot water for the pur
pose, causing the loss of the first part of
the label, so that there remained only
" ure de ]yj(ostium." The child cried
in the night and the mother administer
ed this deadly poison by mistake for
the bromide, producing death iu a few
minutes. Paris Medical makes this ac
cident the text for some sensible re
marks upon the need which exists for a
provision of law compelling pharmacists
to sell poisons only iu black bottles,
with the word "Poison" blown iu the
glass. At the time of the last revision
of the United States Pharmaoopajia
11870) it was recommended that poisons
be dispensed only in three sided bot
tles, so blown as to be rough on one
side, and therefore readily distinguish
ablo iu the dark—an excellent plan if
faithfully carried out. As the matter
stands now the apathy on this important
subject among both physicians and
pharmacists is, to say the least, rather
surprising.
Kxtravagauce of American Women,
The reputation of American women
is so well identified with extravagance
in drwia that the dressmakers iu Paris
will say, if any fault is found with
prices: "We have American ladies
only"—if any costly fabric is exhibited
it is "for Americans." A short time
after the marriage of the Duchess of
Edinburgh, says a oomspoodent, 1 was
in Worth's with a lady friend who was
selecting some dromes. Mr. Worth,
who rarely make* a silk dress of any
kind under 1,000 franc* (I ]>eak from
experience), was advising ber to trim
with imitation lace a dress for which she
was to pay $250 in gold. She said she
could not think of wearing an imitation.
Wait a moment, said Worth, and he
came forward with ono of his women
waiters showing an exquisite morning
drees just completed for the duchess. It
wa* a pale shade of piuk pro* grain
trimmed intricately with imitation of
Valenciennes; tho price was I,GOO
franc*. The humble republican was
not moved by the example of the
"Grande Duchesae Marie," aud would
not take a lesson in imperial economy.
.Mad Hog*.
In noticing tho death of a little girl
from hydrophobia, the editor of the
Richmond Dispatch says : " Was there
over a man who behoved his dog would
bite anybody or coul.l be mad V Once
in a while thero is one. When h's dog
begins to foam he quickly closes all the
doors of his house, thus securing the
members of his own valuable family,
while his raging pet goes tearing through
the yard of his neighbors or down the
street in pursuit of the numerous legs
that are always moving there during bnsi
ness hours. When at length some per
son whom the brute has attacked goes
so far an to kill it, the indignutiou of its
master at once (logins to swell, and ho
becomes almost as mad as wan his
troublesome favorite a -bort time before.
He. threatens prosecution, "justice,"
and all sorts of terrible things, and if no
court is found to support him in his
folly, he will wait and seek vengeance
through some other channel, perhaps
through Bome other dog.
L'nfonnded Suspicion PuuUhcd.
A lady in Marquette, Mich., suspect
ed that her husband was in the habit of
kissing Katy, the cook, and resolved to
detect him in the act. After watching
for days she heard him oome in one
evening and quietly pass into tho kitch
en. Now, Katy was out that evening,
and the kitchen was dark. Burning
with jealonsy, tho wife*took some
matches in her hand and hastily placed
her shawl over her head, as Katy some
times did, entered the kitchen by the
back door, and was almost immediately
seized and embraced in the most ardent
manner. With her heart almost bursting
with rage and jealousy the injured wife
prepared to administer a terrible rehnke
to her faithless spouse. Tearing her
self from his embrace, she struck a
match and stood face to face with—the
hired man. Her hasband says that his
wife has never treated him so well since
the first month they were married as she
has for the past few days.

is high, and the jxHrple cannot get
enough to live on. Besides, they are
not used to such a country. Work they

It is not enough for n reader to bo
unprejudiced. Ho should remember
that a book is to be studied, as a picture
is huug. Not only must a l>ad light be
avoided but a good ono obtained. This,
taste supplies. It puts a history, a tale
or a jxvom in a just point of view, aud
examines the execution.
When death strikes down the innocent
aud young, for every fragile form from
which he lets tjjc panting spirit free, a
huudred virtues rise in shapes of mercy,
charity and love, to walk the world and
bless it. Of every tear that sorrowing
mortals shed on suoh green graves, some
good is born, some gentle nature cornea.
Courage, so far as it is a sigu of ruoe,
is peculiarly the mark of a gentleman or
lady; but it becomes vulgar if rndennd
insensitive; while timidity is not vulgar
if it lie a characteristic of the race or

in being timid,nor a crocodile "gentle"
because courageous.
