To measure cora in the crib, twoonbie feet of s mud, dry coru in the ear will make a bnsht 1 of shelled corn. To find the quantity of shelled corn in a crib, measu:e the length, breadth, and height of the crib, inside the rail; mul tiply them together, and divide by two; the result is the number of bushels of shelled corn in the crib. To find the number of bushels o apples or potatoes iu a bin, multiply the length breadth and thickness together, and this product by eight, pointiug off oue figure ia the product for decimal. To estimate the amount of hav in a mow—Five hundred cubic feet oi ordi nary clover and timothy hay, packed under ordinary circumstances, and set tied three or four month®, will make a CD. Clear clover is much lighter, and re quires nearly seven hundred cubic feet. Red top is lighter still; and timothy cut ripe is heavier than when in blossom. 0: course much depends upon the quality and packing of the hay. The government standard requires a cube of seven and one-half feet for a ton; this gives about 400 cubic feet. To find the number of pouuds of hay in a stack, multiplving the area of the base by one-third the perpendicular height, gives the cubic feet This rule applies to a perfect cone, tapering gradu ally to a point; for irregular figure®, no rule can be given. To find the contents of a barrel, add double the square of the bung diameter to the square of the head diameter, and multiply by the diameter of the bead of the cask. Divide this by 1,077 for ale gallons of '282 cubic inches; or by 882 for wine gallons of 231 cubic inches. How TO GAIN FLESH.—Drink a goblet of good rich milk en ry night before re tiring. This will oovr the scrawniest of bones. LOZESOES FOR BAD BREATH. —Gum catechu, one ounce; white sugar, two ounces; orris powder, half an ounce. Mn them into it paste with mucilage, and add a drop of neroli. One or two may be sucked at pleasure. PIMPLES. —Take a teaspoouful of oat meal and cook in three tablespoonfuls of water half an hour, then strain through a thiu cloth, and apply with a eoft sponge three t mee a day for two or three months. This should be washed off as soon as thoroughly dry. It will cure pimples on the face, unless caused by a diseased stomach. To WHITES TEETH.— For whitening the teeth there is nothing superior to wood charcoal very tinely powdered. Take a few shavings of castile soap, and dissolve in spirits with the aid of heat. Use this solution to make with the char coal a very stiff paste, adding a little syrup or honey to sweeten it, and scent to suit BORE THROAT, HEADACHE, COLD FEET, ETC.— If those who are subject to sore throats and the like, were to bathe the neck with cold water in the morning and use the fleah brush at night, it would more than compensate them for the time and trouble. There are many who suffer from headache and oold feet If they would plunge their feet in cold water every morning and use the flesh brush every night it would relieve them both. Qantloaa nnd Aaasrra. How about ground bone for cows f Groand bone fed in small quantities, with salt, occasionally, is beneficial to cows. They need a greater amount of phosphate than is afforded in grasses. By timely feeding of bone flour with the weekly feed of salt abortion can be prevented. Bones are alw > valuable as feed for fowls. The trouble of crushing or powdering them is amply paid for in eggs and juicy meat for the table.

Peanut oil was introduced in the South during the war in absence of olive oil for household purposes. It has become popular both on account of its good qualities and its ch -apneas. It re tains its purity and flavor for a long time, and is less susceptible to the effect of light than olive oil. The oil is ex tracted by pressure from the nut only; tho refuse is given as feed to cows or used as a fertilizer. Which are considered the liest beef and which the best butter breeds i An experienced cattle breeder of Tennessee thus classifies the different breeds of cattle as to relative merits: The Jersey, the butter breed; the De von, a beef or fancy breed; the short horn and Hereford, the beef producing breeds; Ayrshire and Holstein, the milk and cheese producing breeds. Hllv Horn. This supposed disease is nothing more or less than hollow stomach, empty stomach, ill-treatment of some kind. The following are among the most fre quent causes: Allowing cattle to stand outdoors in frost, snow, mud and rain; and, if housed, allowing them to stand in a dirty, leaky house or shed. Of all the ill-treatment to cattle, the latter is the worst. For illustration: I can take either horse or oow and confine in a narrow place, direct a continual drop ping of water on its head and it will be either crazy or dead in forty-eight hours. This beiug the case, is it any wonder that the poor animal's brains wonld be come inflamed ? This contracts the usual amount of blood from the horns, thus making them feel oold and appeal empty.

A NIGHT LODGER. When 1 was iu my twelfth year, papa aud uiatau i made up their minds to take a pleasure trip to the " Far Went." This was sou thing unusual; they sel dom left home. Well, they went, and uy two sisters, two brothers and myself had a gay time " houaekeepiug." One day, all except myself aud our servant girl were invited to a dinner party. 1 confess I dreaded to have them go. " Kate, we will bring you any amouut of candy." " Now, j>e, you know you and Sally cau stay here just as well as not." 44 Don't lie a baby, Kitty " —were the words directed to me. Finally I reel,. .edly bade them 44 get out of my sight." Sally and t were good friends; she told me stones aud sang songs till 1 be gan to think it was quite a fiue thing to be left at home. Tired of staying in the house, I sauu tered down the front walk, and amused myself by indulging iu a forbidden pleasure—swinging ou the gate. Looking down the road, I spied a man com ug along. I flew to the house, and, satistb d that he was coming in, I ran to Sally, Seizing her dress with both hands, I exclaimed: 44 Oh, Sally ! there is a dreadful look ing man coming in." Sally picked up the poker anil walked to the door, while 1, imitating her ex ample, snatched a stick of wood. Sud denly Sally cried: 44 You little goose, it is Bill Mo- Carty 1" Sure enough, it was Sally's beau. Her mother was very sick, and McCarty was sent to bring Sally home immediately. Here was a dilemma. Sally didn't want to leave me, and unless she started home then, she might not see her moth er alive. It was nearly time for the rest of the folks to come home, so I mauagisi to raise courage enough to say 1 was willing to remain alone. Iu a few minutes Sally was off, and 1 was left in possession of our great house, which never seemed so large to me before. 1 tried to read, but it wa-> impossible; all the murder stories I had ever heard came to my mind. I remembered that none of onr doors could be locked. Papa, who had a few strange ideas, declared locks were a nuisance. I felt that I was doomed. I weut out to the yard, and, to my dismay, discovered that the sky was overcast and a storm Liar at hand. I could see the rain coming; faster and faster it came; it was soon at the house. Oh, how it did rain ! On each side of our yard was a brook, pretty and peaceful in pleasant wi-ather, but a very little rain transformed them both into raging torrents. As I stood at the window I saw first one bridge, and then the other, swept off. I knew now that I must stay alone all night; it would be impossible for my brothers ami sisters to get home. Travelers, or, as Sally called them, " trampers," often stopped at our house over night, as there was no public house uear. To my horror, I now saw one of them coming across the fields. Should I hide I No, that was not to be thought of. Withont stopping to knock, the graj^rough man walked in. " Can I stay here all night t" I dared not refuse him, so, as firmly as I could, answered : " Yes." He seemed lrprised at seeing uo one but myself, ai.J questioned mo mnch. I told him my brother was tip stairs < writing ; that we two were alone, ihat was the first thing that entered my - head to tell him. Such a villainous countenance that man hail! His hair was cat close to his head, leaving his huge ears in bold relief, i Wicked looking eye=, and a brutal mouth, oompleted his general expres sion of ferocity. Bedtime came, and I directed the man to a room up stairs in the servants' de 1 partment, not the "up stairs" where 1 oad said my brother was. Now that there was real danger, I i was calm and reasonable. I fastened the door that led up stairs with my em broidery scissors, which liappeneii to lie in my pocket, so as to guard against snrprise, and hurriedly collecting our silverware, , carried it to mamma's room ami hid it in the bed. No one would have sup posed the bed hail been disturbed. I was elated at my ingenuity. I then hunted np what jewels the girls possessed, and placing them, with wiiat money I could find, in a box, I tied them in my pocket. After doing this, I stole down stairs and removed my scissors from tho door. Those scissors were counted among my most valuable treasures. I had hail them many years, and hail no intention of losing them now. I expected the man would only wait ill he thought I and my fictitious brother was asleep, and would then fwarch the house for valuables, and finish by killing me. Only one plan for escape that I origi mated seemed feasible. I determined to wait till I heard my lodger in the rooms below, and then wrap myself in papa's shawl, and jump ont of the window. I was not kept long in suspense; the pe culiar squeak of the sitting-room door warned mo that it was time to act. Quietly I raised the window, and just as the steps approached the stairs, I jump- 1 ed to the gronnd. Fortunately, there was a bed of lilies directly beneath the ; window, and they softened my fall. That there was danger of breaking my neck I had not thought. I was deter mined to escape. It was as dark as Egypt, the rain was pouring down in torrents, but this was nothing in comparison with t'. e horror within the house. Half a mile back of our house lived a friend of papa's—Mr. Vincent. Ire solved to go there. I ran along, stum bling against fences and falling into ditches, thinking I never knew such a long half mile. Finally I reached the house, and man aged to tell my story. Several young men happened to have been delayed there by the storm, and, headed "by Henry Vincent, a young man of some twenty-two years, they prepared to cap ture my visitor. I was too excited to remain at Mr. Vincent's. I declared I would go back home. They all tried to persuade me not to do this except Henry Vincent, who said "such a little heroine should do as she pleased." With my hand ] tightly daiifMHl in Henry's, wo started.

My "lodger" was sent to prison to meditate for some vara. * The Decay of burglary That the '• hard times " have seriously affected that larg. and enterprising class of our fellow eitisens, the burglurs, says the New York TMUS, there u abundant evidence. A marked change is plainly perceptible in the manner m which they do their work. Formerly the burglar was usually an artist in his profession, ami showed a conscientious thorough noes and nicety in its practice. He effected his entrance into a house in a dexterous and workmanlike manner, leaving no broken glass or smashed panels to accuse him of clumsy incompe tence. lie knew what articles of value to select, and how to avoid disturbing the lumates of the bouse by rude and inconsiderate uois>a. In no circum stances would he tie guilty of wauton and uugentlemanly deatruction of prop erty. If he found himself insulted with plated s poo us, and mocked by oroide jewelry, he never showed his resent meut by twisting the former and stamp iug ou the latter. If he thus failed to meet with any adequate reward for his m*duight toil, he simply withdrew quietly and inoffensively, and contented himseif with pitying tlie seltish parsi mony with which householders, rolling in plated teaspoons, ignored the hard working burglar, and left him to suffer in silence the pang.- of disapj>ointod hojsj. To this praiseworthy burglar of for mer days has succeeded the rude pre tender to burglary, who cannot under take the simplest job without showing bis incompetence and vulgarity. He breaks into suburban house* by the primitive- process of kicking out the cellar windows, anil scratches the matches with which he lights his lantern ou the spotless parlor walls. His tlrst idea is to rob the refrigerator and make a hearty meal, careless of the annoyance which he thus iutlicts upou the thrifty housewife, and of the disgrace which he brings upon his art by subordinating it to sensual gratification. After supper he makes an exploration of the house, soiling the carpets with toliacco juice, and breaking the locks of desks and drawers. If he finds nothing that is worth stealing, he expresses his brutal anger by cutting the pictures, scratch ing the piano, aud breaking the clock. Before he departs he usually mausg>a to fall over enough furniture to awaken the proprietor, and to thns promote that want of harmouy in the domestic circle which iuevitahly occurs when a husband hesitate* to 800 pt his wife's advice to go down stairs armed only with his night shut ami capture a burglar, llic contrast between this ruffianly house breaker ami the skillful and accomplish ed burglar is painfully forced upon our attention whenever we read the }xlice reports, ami thinking men naturally ask themselves what lias lieeu the cause of this sad deterioration which apparent ly involves the whole profession. (tood Living and l>jjep*ia. Good living is said to cause dyspep sia; but the most healthy people we have ever knowu have been among those who lived well— who ate fr.v-lv several times a day of the most nutritious food. By some it is said that tobacco, snuff, tea, coff-e t butter, and even bread cause this complaint ; but whoever will make in quiries on this subject throughout the community will find that this is seldom true. In fact dyspepsia prevails, accord ring to my exjK'rieuc*', altogether the most among the tempi-rate and careful— among those who are careful as regards what they eat and ilriuk, and the lalxir they put upon tho stomach, but exceed ingly careless how mnch labor they put upon that most delicate organ, the brain. Such people often eat nothing but oy the advice of the doctor, or some treat ise on dyspepsia, or by weight; nor drink anything that is not certainly harmless; they chew every mouthful nntil-they are confluent, on mature re flection, that it cannot hurt the stomach. Why, then, are they dyspepticst Be cause, with all their carefulness, they j>ay no attention to the excitement of the brain. They continue to write two or three sermons or essays every week, lies ides reading a volume or two, with magazines, reviews, newspapers, etc., ami attending to mnch other business calculated to excite tho miud. It is not strange that such persons have nervous and stomachic affections. The oonst&nt excitement of the brain sends an excess of blood to the head, and therefore other organs are weakened, and morbid sensibility is produced, which renders the stomach liable to derangement from very slight causes. The Mountain Meadow Massacre. It has l>een adisputed question wheth er Brigham Young was privy to the Mountain Meadow massacre, a horrible butchery by Mormons and Indians, of men, women and children belonging to an immigrant train bonnd for California in 1857. From the evidence produced by the prosecution at Beaver, Utah, in the trial of John D. Lee, the leader of the murderers, it would seem that Young was not responsible in any way for the atrocious act, but that, ou the contrary, when informed of Lee's de sign, he sent a messenger to the latter with instructions to spare the immi grants and let them go in peace. The messenger rode day and night, but the massacre had taken place forty-eight I ours before he reached Mountain Mea .low. But this evidence, th ough it shows that Brigham Young endeavored to prevent the murders, also proves that he knew who the murderers were, and yet he never took any measures whatever to bring them to justice. The proof against Lee seems to bo conclu sive. BUTTER. —"Marseilles butter" is a substance produced at a large stearin® candle manufactory at Marseilles, from which several tons are sent out every week. It is most artistically prepared, looks very nice, and keeps well ; but it will not go down at Maraeilles, and an other market for it is being sought.

Iu order, thorefoto, to insure the flignt of the bullet over the full distanoe between the rifle ami the target it in nee essary to elevate the direction of the barrel, so that the projectile will la raimsl during its flight a sufficient height over the plane iu which are located the point of departure ami the object sought to la- hit to oomjH-n*at<- for the loss by gravitation. To regulate tin- angle, a tangent scale is fitted to the breech of the gun, uml to this scale is attached the movable rear sight with which, with the vertically im movable muzzle sight, the lim- of sight or aim is determined. The scale is di vided into degrees, minutes ami seconds, the latter subdivision lieing obtained by means of a vernier scale attached for the purpose. The fine divisi.ai of tin tangent scale is neot-naary in order to regnlate the changes in elevation re quired for variations of range ami the resistance of the atmosphere. In the forrm r cane, let it la supposed that a marksman hits the bull's eye at an eight hundred yards range, with a certain ele vatiou of the rear sight on the tangent scale. If he desires to hit it itguin at 850 yards he must inert. -<-the • ev.it ton, ami decrease it for a distance of 775 yards. Thus the utmost accuracy can only la- attained by a fine adjustment of tin sight-. The influence of the wind on the flight <>f it bullet in very great, nml.whoi the wind in variable, in con-fa' 1 ▼ chang iug.

Hi- nhootn " ilea*} on," an it in termed, making no allowance for the force of the wind. If, however, a wind is blowing in the nauie direction us tlw line of night that in toward the target, the elevation of the breech night must bo lowered in proportion to the force of the wind, lxyauno the moving air cur rent has a tendency to lift the hall, not actually, but relatively, by delaying the fall due to gravity within the |>eriod of flight. Un the other hand, if the wind blown toward tho marknman the eleva tiou must IM> raised to comiiensatc for the increaaed resistance created by the wind to the progress of the bullet, which in in addition to the normal renintauce of the air at rent. When the wind blown acronn the line of tire it cannon the ballet to drift in the name direction an the wind blown, and while it may not necessitate an altera tion of elevation it oompeln the rifleman to move the muzzle night no many points over on the the wind, no that the line of fire will diverge from the line of night, and tlinn compensate for the drift of the bullet. An oblique wiud, with or against the ball, creates a further complication of the sighting. The former compels a reduction of the elevation and an allow auoe for wind, while the latter ncoenpi taten an increase of elevation an well an a wind allowance. The wind in sup posed to be blowing across the range from right to left, oonneqnei tly if tiio marknman aimed "dead on" the bull's eye hin bullet would strike tho target away in the left or possibly might not toneh it at all. Hut lie maken the proper nllnwanoo for the wind and moves his rnnzzle night to the left aide of the bar rel, and with thin urraugcmcut of the nights he aims directly at the bull's eye. Of course it will le at once neon that the barrel is directly on a line to ward a point to the right of the bull's eye and the bullet flies in that direction, but in drifted during its progress toward the left and into the center of the target. The accuracy of the shooting there fore entirely depends on the good judg merit of the rifleman, and the content at Creed moor was won by the American team because its members were perfect ly familiar with the relative foroea gover iug the flight of the bullets. The match was continued on the second day under strictly different conditions of weather from those of the first; and it was in forming a correct estimate of the char acter of th changes that our team had the advantage over the other contestants. The marvelous shooting of Johnson at 1,000 yards when compared with the in different marksmanship of some of the other riflemen, shows that mere steadi ness of nerve and clear vision will not compensate for a deficient acquaintance with the value of the forces in opera tion on the flying bullet. THE REASON.—A wealthy Bostonian died recently and left all his property to his wife on condition that she married again within eighteen months.
