The Importance of the Farmer's Work
The following extract from Edward Ev
erett's address before the New York State
Agricultural Society, in 1857, is worth
reproducing :
"Strike out of existence, at once, ten
day's supply of eight or ten articles, such
as Indian corn, wheat, rye, potatoes, rice,
millet, the date, the banana, and the bread
fruit, with half-a-dozen others which serve
as the forage of the domestic anitnals, and
human race would be extinct. The houses
we inhabit, the monuments we erect, the
trees we plant, stand in some cases for
ages; but our own frames—the stout limbs,
the skillful hands that built the houses,
and set up the monuments, and plant the
trees—have to be built up, recreated,
every day ; and this must be done from
the fruits of the earth, gathered by the
agriculturist. Every thing else is luxury,
convenieoe, comfort—food is indispensible.
Then consider the bewildering extent of
this daily demand and supply, which you
will allow me to place before you in a some
what coarse mechanical illustration. The
human race is usually estimated at abont
one thousand millions of individuals. If
a sustenance of a portion of these multi
tudinous millions is derived from other
sources than agriculture, this circumstance
is balanced by the fact that there is a great
deal of agricultural produce raised in ex
cess of the tolal demand for food. Let,
then, the thoughtful husbandman who de
sires to form a just idea of the importance
of his pursuit, reflect, when he gathers his
flock about him to partake the morning's
meal, that one thousand millions of fellow
men have awakened from sleep that morn
ins, craving their daily bread, with the
same appetite which reigns at his family
board; and that if, by superior power,
they could be gathered together at the
same hour, for the same meal, they would
fill both sides of tables reaching all
round the globe where it is broadest, seat
ed side by side, and allowing 18 inches to
each individual, and that these tables are
to be renewed twice or thrice every day.
Then leiltim consider that, in addition to
the food ofthe human race,that of all the
humble partakers of man's toil—the low
er animals—is to be provided in like man
ner. These all wait upon agriculture, as
the agent of Providence which giveth
them their meat in due season ; and they
probably consume in the aggregate an
equal amount of produce; and, finally, let
him add, in imagination, to this untold
amount of daily food for man and beast,
the various articles which are furnished'
directly or indirectly, from the soil, for
building material, furniture, clothing, and
fuel. The grand total will illustrate the
primary importance of agriculture, con
sidered as the steward—the commissary—
charged with supplying this almost incon
ceivable daily demand of the human
race and the animals for their daily
bread; a want so imperative and uncom
promising, that death, in its most agoni
zing form, is the penalty of a failure in the
supply."
Cure for Warts,
It is not a matter entirely within the
limits which you prescribe, and yet one of
public interest; and hence I am led to say
to those afflicted with warts (for it is some
times a source of great annoyance, and of
ten of pain, to have them on the hands or
exposed parts of the body) that I have
been entirely relieved by the use of kero
sene. After trying all the recognized cures
in the medical works within reach—chrom
ic, nitre, sulphuric acid, nitraic of silver,
caustic, potash, etc., I was advised by a
"corn doctor" to try kerosene oil. When
I begun its use, three months since, I bad
thirty-seven on my hands, some very large
and painful. When they were covered
with hard cuticle, I carefully pared it off
and saturated them daily, using a camel's
hair pencil and common coal oil, They
began to disappaer, by absorption, in about
two weeks, and are now entirely removed,
leaving no scar or mark, as was the result
in three places in which I succeeded in
eating them out by caustic.
I do not suggest it as a specific, but as a
means of cure to me, that others may try
it. The remedy is always at hand, and, if
persistently used, may do others the good
service I have had from Y. Ob
server.
The Sick Chamber at Night,
The glare of a bright light at night
tends„ to keep an invalid from sleeping; and
yet, in many cases it is not desirable to be
in total darkness. If a burning candle has
common salt put on the melted part of the
candle, until it reaches the black part of
wick, it will not only cause the candle to
burn very slowly, but make it give a dim,
mild and mellow light, proving very agree
able to the invalid.
Another expedient in this connection.
A room can be very well ventilated in the
hotter nights, by lighting a candle and
placing it on the hearth in the fire place;
this causes a draught upwards, which is
promoted by the fresh air coming in at an
open window or door. In the winter a fire
should be always burning in the grate or
fire-place, more necessary at night than in
the day-time; it not only keeps the air of
the room pare and good, but it prevents
the room from getting too cool, thus en
gendering pneumonia or lung fever, in
proportion as the invalid is debilitated.
Management of Brooms.
If brooms are wet in boiling suds once a
week, they will become very tough, will
not cut the carpet, last much longer, and
always sweep like a new broom. A very
dusty carpet may be cleaned by sitting a
pail of water out by the door, wet the broom
in it, knock it to get off all the drops,
sweep a yard or so, then wash the broom
as before and sweep again, being careful to
shake all the drops off the broom and not
sweep far at a time. If done with care, it
will clean a carpet very nicely, and you will
be suprised at the quantity of dirt in the
water. The water may need changing
once or twice, if the carpet is very dusty.
Snow sprinkled over a carpet, and swept
off, before it has time to melt and dissolve,
is also nice for renovating a soiled carpet.
Moistened Indian meal is used by some
housekeepers.
Coloring Butter with Carrots
The practice of coloring butter in win
ter time, prevails very generally and if
done with carrot juice the appearance of
the butter is improved and the flavor is
said to resemble that made from grrss in
summer. The following is the process:
To cream for five pounds of butter, take a
good-sized orange carrot, wash clean and
grate off the deepest colored portion. pour
a teacupful of warm water to it, let it
stand a short time, then strain through a
cloth and add to the cream just before
churning—Old Paper.
We would suggest a still better way to
color batter, viz : to feed the cows the car
rots and the butter will be colored in a
natural way, and the cows will be more
healthy.
DIE winter crops have suffered consid
rrably from freezing out.
