KINDNESS TO ANIMALSH
" The merciful man is merciful to his
beast," is an old adage—in all probability
a curruption of the proverb of Solomon,
who wrote —" A righteous man regardeth
the life of his beast ; but the tender mer
cies of the wicked are cruel." Its truth
fulness is well known, though oftentimes
inhumanly disregarded, and its importance
to man will warrant its frequent repetition.
I wish it might be painted over every barn
door, in every livery stable-keeper's office,
at every trotting park, and in conspicuous
places on every public road where fast
driving is common—in fact in every place
where man frequents —in letters large and
bold so that " those who run might read."
The unmerciful man would have the moni
tor ever before him, and for the utter disre
gard of the admonitions of its truthfulness
there would be no palliative.
The act of being merciful to a beast
does not consist alone in acts of kindness
or in sparing the whip and goad, but in
continually looking to their wants and sat
isfying, not neglecting them. A dumb beast
wants nothing to gratify the eye or the
mind, nor even the taste in an inordinate
degree. The horse, though of the higher
order of animals, is without a soul; yet a
beneficent Creator has given him instinct in
a very marked degree ; and, notwithstand
ing all their actions, are without thought
or reason ; yet man cannot fail to perceive
that they have an intuitive impulse which
prompts and guides them in all their ways
and aGtions, and to co-operate with them
and follow out their line of desires, and
gratify their natural functions, will be the
correct method
Most of the animals of the first or mam
mal class of the animal kingdom, will make
their wants known ; and that man, whose
duty it is to take charge and have the care
of them, will tell you, if he himself pos
ses reasoning powers in any ordinary de
gree, that their language is unmistakable,
and with a little application of the mind to
its consideration, is easily understood.
Some few years ago 1 came to the following
conclusion, and I have never seen cause to
deviate from it—that I would not keep an
animal or fowl except it was worthy of my
care. If it was worthy of my care, then it
assuredly was worthy of the best of care ;
and if I was unable to give it the care it
deseived, I would at once relinquish keep
ing it.
Every farmer and every man is or should
he acquainted with the wants of the ani
mals he keeps. Never stint them in their
food, but let them have an abundance, and
by all means let it be of the very best—
you will find it eventually the most profit
able ; fresh air, fresh water in profusion,
clean beds, well housed and secure from
the biting blasts and driving storms—give
them these attentions ; they will pay you
four-fold. Try them, you who never ex
perienced the gratification the heart feels in
doing a kindness, try them ; try mercy and
kindness, attention and care, and my word
for it you will never regret witnessing the
living proofs of your whole souled charity.

AMOUNT OF PORK FROM A BUSHEL OF
OORN,
Our readers may have observed the pub
lished statements of the experiments of J.
B. Lawes, who obtained 100 pounds of pork
from seven bushels of corn or one pound of
pork from 4* pounds of corn. The grain
was ground and moistened with water be
fore feeding. This is regarded as success
ful management. At the present time,
when pork sells at 15 cents per pound, the
corn thus converted to meat will bring a
little over $2 per bushel, or at the former
rate of five cents per pound, the corn would
be worth 71 cents per bushel for fattening
pork. This estimate is based upon the sup
position that the manure pays for the grind
ing and feeding.
The experiments of Nathan G. Morgan
of Union Springs, published in the Annual
Register for 18t>4, present much more favor
able results. As a mistake occurred in one
part of that published statement, we here
repeat his mode and its results in a correc
ted form. He always commences fatten
ing in the spring, at which time a bushel of
corn is more valuable in its results than in
autumn, and continues a regular course of
feeding throughout the season. The corn
is ground, and ninety pounds of hot water
poured on every sixteen pounds of meal,
and after standing 12 or 18 hours, the
whole mass becomes thick feed. He finds
by measured experiment that the value of
the corn is fully doubled by this process, as
compared with corn fed in the ear, and fifty,
per cent, better than meal merely mixed
with cold water. One bushel of corn thus
prepared, after deducting ten per cent toll
for grinding, and leaving only fifty-four
pounds for the bushel, will give 20 pounds
of pork—or at the rate of 2| pounds of corn
for each pound of pork. When pork is five
cents per pound he obtains at the rate of $1
per bushel for his corn, or at the present
time, when it is fifteen cents, the corn will
yield S3 per bushel.
A coincident will be observed between
these experiments and those of Lawes as
above stated. \\ bile Morgan obtains by
scalding the meal, one pound of pork from
25j pounds of corn, he gets fifty per cent
less, or at the rate of one pound of pork to
31 pounds of meal, when mixed merely
with cold water, which is within less than
half a pound of the quantity of meal re
quired in Lawes' experiments, when the
same kind of feed was used.
Breeds and management will of course
vary the results ; in the many trials made
by N. G. Morgan, he had every advantage
of good sound corn, comfortable quarters,
cleanliness, regularity of feeding, and qual
ity of breed. It may be well to state that
he has found the best sound corn double
the value of a great deal that is used when
badly grown or imperfectly ripened, or more
or less mouldy.— Country Gent.
W ASH FOR TRKKS. —We have no very great
faith in the efficacy of either washing or
scraping trees—but as some persons have,
a few words on the subject may not be use
less.
If washing is determined upon, the best
material in our knowledge is common soft
soap mixed with water until it is of a con
sistency of cream. It may be applied with
a brush or swab. If applied in the month
of duly, it will have a tendency to destroy
the eggs of insects which are then deposi
ted on the bark and about the roots of the
trees.
This wash will also be found effectual in
removing moss and other parasitical pro
ductions. A sufficient amount of potash is
contained in the soap to accomplish these
ends, and yet not enough to injure the bark
of the tree, and as it is of vegetable origin,
it is more congenial to the tree than lime,
and is always to be preferred. It does not
close the pores of the bark as lime wash
does, but leaves them unobstructed and
open to atmospheric influences, and in a
state of vigorous and perfect health It
has long been used by orcliardists and gar
deners, and has never been known to injure
any fruit trees, when made and applied as
above directed.— N. Y. Farmer.
THE HOUSEWIFE'S HAND-BOOK.
ICE CREAM.—A very cheap luxury and
easily made. Take what quantity of cream
(sweet and thick) you wish. Sweeten and
flavor to your faucy. Have some broken
ice and salt placed around your freezer in a
keg or tub that comes up as high at least
as the cream in the freezer. Turn the free
zer until the cream is in a mushy mass ;
then with a long wooden paddle beat it un
til it rises up as light as the frothed white
of an egg. A whip churn does not answer
quite as well. When satisfied with its
lightness, proceed to freeze it until stiff.
Then mould it or wrap it up to keep it from
thawing until wanted. If you have not
pure creain, make a custard of fresh milk
and the whites of eggs, and use one-third
with cream.
Cream seasoned and whipped to a froth,
is nice with fresh fruit,or filled up in glasses
in which there is a spoonful of jelley, or a
maccaroon soaked in wine.
CUSTARD.—AIIow four eggs to each pint
of fresh milk. Reserve part of the whites
to froth and lay on top. Beat the eggs
smooth, stir them in the milk, sweeten with
best loaf sugar. Set a bucket with the
mixture in a pot of boiling water. Stir un
til done and remove from the fire instantly.
The same mixture may be baked.
APPLES OR QUINCES, pealed and cored, with
the hole made by coring filled with jelley
or brown sugar, and baked with a little
wine and sugar around, are very nice ;
with a custard poured over and baked,they
are termed a bird's nest.
BLANC MANGE.—Dissolve an ounce and a
half of gelatine in a pint of sweet cream.
Sweeten, flavor and boil it. Put a little in
a cup on some ice and salt, and if it will
mould, it is done. Color or use white.
CALK FOOT JELLEY. —Having reduced some
feet to a jelly by boiling, scrape off the fat
from the cake when cold. Melt it in a ket
tle, and before it is warm enough to cook
them, stir in the broken whites of some
eggs. Boil and skirn well ; strain through
a flannel bag ; return to the kettle with the
addition of some brandy, sugar and deli
cate spices, as much as makes it agreeable
to you. Boil until it will readily congeal
on ice ; strain it through a flannel until per
fectly clean ; mould it, or if for glasses,
heap it in them in broken pieces. You may
flavor calf foot jelley with any fruit you
choose. Gelatine is dissolved in water and
prepared by the same process. One ounce
to one quart of water in winter ; ond and
a half ounces in summer.
CHARI.OTTE RUSSE.—Make one pint of rich
custard : when cold stir in an ounce of isin
glass dissolved in a half pint of water and
reduced to a stiff jelley ; sweeten with best
sugar ; mix a glass of wine, the juice of a
couple of lemons, and a pint of frothed
cream together ; stir them into a custard
when cool. Mould in blanc mange moulds,
or cut out some nice shaped sponge cakes
into shells, and pour the mixture in.
COFFEE.—Pick, wish and dry the coffee ;
roast it of a nice brown color ; when you
can mash it with your fingers it is done.
Many people stir in an ounce of butter to a
pound of coffee. It is best fresh roasted,
but as that is too troublesome in real busi
ness families, it is usually prepared once a
week, and immediatety put in close canis
ters. One pound of coffee to a gallon of
water is the prescribed quantity, but we
think used by few. Mix the ground coffee
with the white of an egg ; when the water
boils stir it in and boil hard for a few min
utes ; then set it where it will boil slowly
for ten minutes. Coffee should be made
just before wanted for use. Before pouring
it into the urn, pour a cupful back and forth,
until it seems clear. You may use a strip
of ising-glass instead of the white of an
egg, or you may, when you want the coffee,
after it cools, glaze it, using the whites of
two eggs to each pound of coffee.
BEETS.—Two, or at most three, kinds are
enough for the garden. The early Blood
Turnip Rooted suits us, though some prefer
the Bassano for the earliest. The Long
Blood is the best for general winter use.
Sow on a light, rich soil about the middle
of April for the earliest—the 10th this year
—and they may be used by the Ist of July.
For the general crop of winter beets, sow
from the middle of May to June 15th.—
These will grow quicker—hence more ten
der —and larger than the early sowings.—
Let the drills be 18 inches apart, made with
a pointed stick or bayonet hoe ; drop the
seed one inch apart and cover with half an
inch of fine soil. When four or six inches
high thin to six inches apart, using the tops
and roots of those pulled out for greens.
In pulling for the first early, take every al
ternate root, leaving the others one foot
foot apart. The last sorts should be left
about nine inches apart at the first thin
ning. Beets, as well as other vegetables,
are usually left too thick. Radishes may
be sown in drills with beets, to be pulled
for use before the beets are of much size.
REMEDY FOR CRIB-BITING.—I believe I have
discovered a remedy to prevent a horse
I from crib-biting in the stable. I have a
; very valuable pair of brown driving mares,
one of which had become a confirmed crib
ber, and I tried all remedies that I had
I heard or read of, and went to considerable
j expense and trouble to prevent this habit,
! but to no purpose. Finally I thought I
| would try and invent something myself,
which would be of advantage to me in this
' respect. It is a very simple process, viz :
to get a piece of thin iron, or an old wheel
I tire, say 1| or 2 inches wide, and raise it in
| a parallel position about an inch above the
j edge of the front and back side of the feed
, box, by fastening it at the ends and brac
i ing it up in the middle; and placed in this
position the animal has nothing but the
j sharp edges of the box to catch hold of.
And I assure you from three or four months
experience, that you will find this remedy
I effectual. J. F. HUTCHINSON.
ORCHARDS.—Attack the caterpillars by
burning them with a camphene or kerosene
lamp ; but a surer way is to scrape' them
from the trees with the hand into a pail,
and then destroy them. As caterpillars
leave their nest at about 8 o'clock, p. in.,
they should be attacked before or after
those hours. Boiling water poured into the
haunts of ants will destroy them.
If your trees were properly washed in
early spring, they will not he hide-bound
now. Keep the ground stirred around
fruit trees. Sow a very slight quantity of
fine salt around plum and some other fruit
trees as recommended ; trim off shoots
from the roots.— Work ing Farmer.
NASTURTIUM.—CuItivate in your flower or
kitchen garden. Plant an inch deep,plants
a loot apart. Support as a tomato vine,
and gather the fruit green for pickles. Sub
stitute for capers.
JAMES give the baby some laudanum,
and put it to sleep, and bring me my para
sol. I am going to a meeting for the
amelioration of the condition of the human
race.
It is dreadful easy to be a fool—a man
can be one and not know it.
