In preparing beans for the market two methods are usualy pursned, either to pick them over by hand or to soreen them, When they are gathered up from | the threshing floor small stones, parti- cles ot dirt, poor and musty beans are all mixed in together, and in order to | sell wel: these impurities must be taken | out. By far the larger quantity of | beans are hand picked, the work being done by girls and boys, and these bring the highest prices, If a soreen is used the werk is not done so thoroughly as | by the haud process, and although the | operation is more expeditiously per. formed the difference saved in time will hardly make up for the loss in price. The sale for sobgened beans 1s slow, and | they do not Bring within fifteen to twenty-five cents per bushel as much as | the hand picked. The latter will always sell quicker and at higher price than the former. I'or packages, bags and barrels | are used Vermont beaus are generally put in 2 1-2 bushel bags, ana those from New York come in barrels, From both sections the beans, as a rule, are recieved in good oonaition and have an attractive appearance. TAKE a bar of common soap, place 1n a pan containing a little water, then heat until melted down, then add oar- | bolie acid erysials (carbolic acid crystals ean be had of a druggist 1m one-pound | bottles at 75 cents each), at least one ounce of acw to each pound of soap used; there is no danger if used strouger.

A recent French method, which seems practicable, is the follow ing: Boeald 3 barr=ls or casks with hot water, nose thoroughly and empty. Then seald with 1 oiling vinegar, rolling | the barrels and allowiug them to stand on their sides twe or three days vutil they become thoroughly saturated with | the vinegar. Tue barrels are then filled about one-third full with strong, pure cider vinegar, and two gallons of cider | added, Every eighth day thereafter two gall ns of cider are added until the barrel: are two-tinrds full, The whole is aliowed to sta: d for fourteen day» longer, when 1t will be found to be good vinegar, and one-half of 1t may be drawn | and the process of filling it with cider | be begun agsin, Insummer the barrels are aliowed to stand exposed to the sun, and in ‘cold weather kept where the temperatuce is eighty degrees, Tue fuchis, lines a slight shade and a cool soil, sud then, provided with muis- ture, 1t will stand as bigh a temperature | as may prevail, Place the plants io the | open, a little shady; such a p ace as the north sive of a house furnishes, and there 1s vo fear but they will do all one may ¢« xpect from them, If they are to remain ov the pis 2z4 or the window-sill, the pots should Le sunk up to the nm in a Lx ot soi which can be kept moist; then, if the drainage is kept open, they will hold their 1clinge snd flourish, A avy florist writes as follows: 1 would say to those who are troublea with the little thes about their plants in the winter, that since 1 have com- | menced using separate saucers with my pots, and taken to watering my plants | from the hotiom, by filling the saneers | with boiling water 1 am not troubled | with the little flies, ana 1 think the plants do much better watered in this | way than by pouring the water on the | top.
