FARM AND HOUSEHOLD ITEMS
We invite communicationsmm all permnswho are
interested in matters properly belonging to thin
department.
Remedy for Corns.
When a young man, Bnys a correspondent
of the Country Gentleman, I used to be
very much annoyed by those painful ex
crescences called "corns," on the toes and
feet, until I was told of a very simple but
effectual remedy for them by some person.
It was to .bathe the foot in tepid water, kto
soften them; then pare them off veryclooe
ly with a sharp knife; then rub on well
green peach-tree loaves; when, after con
tinuing the rubbing once or twice a day,
the corns will entirely disappear, and not
return, without the cause which Mist occa
sioned them. I have often tried the 'renio
dy, and never yet found it to fail. It seems
to be the prussio acid in the peach-tree
leaves that takes them away.
A good corn salve could no doubt bo
made ijpr winter use, by bruising the peach
leaves when green; then boil them in water
, until the strength is extracted; then take
out the leaves, strain the water off the
sediment, and add a sufficient quantity of
resin, beeswax, tallow, and lard oil to make
it soft enough, and simmer down, without
burning, until the water is evaporated.
Soften and pare the corn, as bofore directed
spread it on a small piece of cambric or
linen, and apply, putting on the sock or
stocking carefully, so as not to rub it off.
Koep applying until the corn disappears.
Keeping Eggs Fresh.
The most convenient and satisfactory
way to keep eggs fresh is to punch numer
ous holes in a tin pail; fill it with fresh
oggs; lower the pail into a kettlo of melted
tallow, as hot as can be without burning
one's fingers when thrust into it ; then lift
the pail out quickly, and the melted tallow
will flow out, leaving a thin coating on
every egg. Remove tho eggs as soon as
possible from the pail, and pack them on
ends in a keg or barrel, place in a cool
cellar until wanted for use. Eggs have
been kept thus more than six months so
fresh that expert judges supposed they
were fresh. The eggs being so much cold
er than the melted tallow, a thin covering
of cold tallow will be formed almost in
stantly, which will render the shell imper
vious to the air.
Artificial Milk.
M. Dubrunfant, during the seige of
Paris, devised an artificial milk, made by
dissolving one ounce and a half of sugar
in a quart of water, adding an ounce of dry
albumen (from white of eggs) and fifteen to
thirty grains of soda crystals, and then
making an emulsion with it by means of
' from one ounoe and a half to two ounces of
olive Oil. Ultimately, astke war went on,
gelatine was substituted for albumen, and
slaughter-bouse fats, purified by melting
at one hundred and fifty degrees, for the
olive oil. One firm made by the latter
process one hundred and thirty-two thous
and gallons of artificial milk daily for Paris
consumption.
HP In a communication received from
our correspondent " H." of Bucks county,
Pa., he says : "In conversation the other
day with an old, respectable farmer, tho
subjoct of garlie came under discussion.
We both concluded it was a pest in the
wheat or pasture fields ; deteriorating the
unality of milk, butter and bread. I re
marked that it was a diffioult plant to erad
icate. My friend said that he never had
any difficulty in exterminating it. He al
ways gets rid of it by planting the garlic
field with oats two seasons in succession.
This method he had not only practiced
himself, but had known it to be tried by
others with uniform success. Experience
is a good teacher."
tW If people planting orchards would
give orders to mark the North side of trees
with red chalk before they are taken up,
and when set out to have the trees put in
the ground with their North side to the
North in their natural position, a larger
proportion would live. Ignoring this law
of nature is the cause of so many trans
planted trees dying. If the North side 1b
exposed to the South, the beat of the sun
is too great for that side of the tree to
bear, and therefore it dries up and do
ays.
t2T" A Grindstone should not be exposed
td the weather, as it not only injures the
woodwork, but the sun's rays harden the
stone so much as, in time, to render it use
less. Neither should it stand in the water
in which it runs, as the part 1'eroainiug in
water souens so mucn that it wears un-
, equally, and this is a common cause of
grindstones becoming "out of true."
Hickory Nut Cake.
Take one half cup of butter, two cups of
sugar, and four eggs, beaten separately,
three cups of flour, one half cup of sweet
milk, two teaspooofuls baking powder, two
cups of hickory nut meats cut fine, one
teaspoon extra vanilla.
