Wintering milch Cows.
Good worm 6heddiiiir, if not already prepar
ed! abould be got ready for these, having an
eye, as already intimated, for proper ventila
tion. It will take more time and g've some
trouble, but you will be amply repaid for it,
if the cows should be well rubbed down with
a wisp of straw daily, or curried and rubbed
down, watered night and morning, and given
an ounce or two of salt twice a week, or of
the Bale and ashes mixture, with a little lime
added. Give them the use of un enclosed yard,
which should at all times be provided with
rongh materials to turn into manure. Hieir
food should be properly cut. The roots when
fed to cows should be mixed with cut hay,
fodder or cornstalks. Young cattle should be
well cared for during winter ; give them mod
erate supplies of food to enable them to keep
in good condition, so that in spring they may
be in a condition to thrive,.wii hout having to
Bake op for lost time—they should be provid
ed with good, dry sheds, facing the sontlj, and
be protected from northernly winds—have ac
cess to an enclosed yard, which son Id also be
covered with woods-mould,and such like trashy
6ubstances, having in view continually the
makiDg them earn their keep by the manufae
tur-e of manure. I-n addition to the long pro
vender and cut food, they should be treated to
a mess of oats two or three times a week to
help to make muscle, and give strength—their
abeds should be kept dean. Chopped roots
and cut hay and straw fed together keeps
them in pood health,the bowels free, the blocd
cool, and the skin free.
HEALTHFCLXESS OF APPLES. — There is scarcc
y an article of vegitable food, says Hall's
Journal of Health, more widely useful and
universally loved, than the apple. \\ liy
every farmer in the country has not an ap
pie or hard where trees will grow at all is
one of the mysteries. Let every family lay
in from two to ten or more barrels, and it
will be to them the most economical invest
ment in the whole range of culinaries. A
raw, mellow apple is digested in an hour
and a half, while boiled cabbage requires
five hours. The most healthy dessert
which can be placed on a table is a baked
apple. If taken freely at breakfast, with
coarse bread and butter, without meat or
flesh of any kind, it has an admirable efleet
on the general system, often removes con
stipation, correcting acidities, and cooling
of febrile conditions more effectually than
the most approved medicines. If families
could be induced to substitute the apple—
ripe, sound arid lucious—for the pies, cakes,
candies and sweatmeats with which their
children are too often indiscreetly stuffed,
there would be a dimunition in the sum to
tal of doctor's bill, in a single year, suffi
cient to lay in a stock of this delicious fruit
Cor a whole season's use.
t&* The Gcrmautown Telegraph has the
following receipt for cur'ng meat : To one
gallon of water, 1 12 lbs. of salt, 1 2 lb. of su
guar, 12 oz. of saltpeter, 1-2 oz. potash. In
this ratio the pickle to he increused to any
quantity desired. Let these he boiled tftgetli
er, till the dirt from the sugar rises to the top
and is skimmed off. Then throw it into a lnl
to cool, and wheu cold, pour it over your beef
or pork, to remain usual time, say four or five
weeks. The meat must he weil covered with
pickle, and should not be put. down for at least
two days after killing, during which time it
should be slightly sprinkled with powdered
saltpeter, which removes all the surface blood,
&c., leaving the meat fresh and clean.
Some omit boiling the pickle, and find it to
answer well ; though the operation ot boiling
purifies the pickle by throwing off the dirt al
ways to be found in all salt and sugar.
if this receipt is properly tried, ic will nev
er be abandoned. There is none that surpas
ses it, if so good.
Do NOTDESPISE THE SHOP.— The importance
of mechanical training and of habits ot reg
ularity and method, cannot be over-estima
ted in their various bearings upon the re
lations of life, and we would say to those
young men who are at this moment strug
gling through details which appear to be
hard, useless, and full of weariness, to hold
on ; their utility may not be apparent at
present, but the day is sure to come when
they will reap the benefit of such discipline
and routine. Hold on ; don't give up ;in
our own country no social prejudices pre
vail which prevent the humble dyer from
becoming the Learned and skillful chemist;
no barriers exist which deprive those whom
the chances of life made rude and unalter
ed, from becoming shining lights in the
world of science. Most great inventors
have sprung from the ranks of the brave
daily workers, and the field is still a wide
one, expanding every day ; therefore we
say " hold 011" to the training of the shop,
improve your spare hours in mental culture
and reward is certain.
COLORING —When the farmer's wife wants
to color a bright rid, she must wash her yam
clean and nice, and boil it in strong alum wa
ter ; then dry in the sun a day—but do not
rinse it out. Then the next day boil in good
madder, soak over night ; then dry it again,
after which wash it, and you will have a bril
liant red. When you want to color a bright
green, you must boil in alum water the same
way, having it very clean, then boil in the
kettle some good, strong hickory bark and put
iu the yarn ; then make some blue dye in the
usual way, Iroin indigo aud a small bit of mad
der.
The lo s s upon hay, weighed July 20th,
when cured enough to put iu the barn, ami
again, February 20tl), has been ascertained to
be 27 1-2 per cent. So that iiav at §ls a ton
in the field, is equal to §2O and upward when
weighed from the mow in winter. The weight
of cobs in a bishel of corn in November, as
certained to be 18 pounds, was only 8 1-2 in
May. The cost of grinding a bushel of dry
cobs, counting, handling, und miller's charge,
is about a ceut a pour.d. Is the meal worth
the money 1

sXprmal Department —Special exercises are arranged
without extra charge for those preparing themselves as
Teachers of Common Schools. Prof. C. R- COBURN, the
able and well known Superintendent of Common Schools
in the county, has kindly consented to organize the Tea
chers class, and direct the course to be pursued.
II e will also be present-to conduct its exercises as often
as practicable, and will deliver frequent lectures on the
Theory and Practice of Teaching, as also on other subjects
connected with Normal training.
Those persons, therefore, intending to engage in teach
ing for the winter, will tind it greatly to their advantage
to be present during the Fall term.
Prof. Cotiurn's connection with the institution is not
such as to in any way interfere with the discharge ot the
regular duties of his office.
No pains will lie spared, on the pavt of the Faculty and
