FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD. Farm Hints. TTnrmors in tho West are niraing to get a bottor Rtook of eattlo ami liogs, till loss lnml and do it bettor, buy fewer goods nnd pny cnsli. A lurge number of grange co-onerntive stores, mills nnd elevators Lave been es tablished in various sections of tho West nnd South. The ox-eye daisy is n wee 1, is to be treated ns n weed and may be killed like nny other weed with good cultivation if cut when in bloom. Stock like it nnd thrive upon it. Lima beans have brought good prices tho last two or three yoars, and thoso who raised them have mndo it pay. Sour milk nnd buttermilk are excel lent food for nil kinds of poultry, and are greatly renlishod by them. Earthen dishes are the best vessels to feed them in, as wooden ones soon become pour. When thickened with bran or meal, it is a very nourishing diet for young fowls, nnd is good to make hens Iny. An Ohioan, who has three-fourths of mi acre of quince orchard, from which last year ho sold three hundred bushels of iirst-cluss fruit, spndes the ground in siiring, nnd scatters n peck of coal nshes around each tree, applying nt tho same time a quart of salt nnd another quart when the quinces are half grown. Wo would give no meal to cows for a month before calving, nor for ten or twelve days after. A little mess of wheat bran, fed daily, would be better and safer, ns it is not as heating in its ten dency. Much judgment is needed in feeding cows. If it could be avoided, ground to be cultivated should never be carted over in the spring, or be plowed or harrowed when too damp to crumble by working. A method which will break the most vicious cow from kicking, nnd which sir mid supersede the cruel practice of beating and whipping, nnd is the work of but a few minutes, is t.s follows : Tike a strap the size of a common bridle-rein nnd buckle tightly around the cow (while milking), just forward of the bag. This practiced a lew days, will h:ive tho desired result, ns we nro nware from actual experience. Docs Wheat Growing Pay t James Adams says : My experience of twenty years in the production of wheat in a wheat-growing section of Monroe count v, N. 1'., is that n bushel of wheat, on the average, costs the pro ducer a sum equivalent to the cost of one day's labor, or more, besides inter est on the money invested in the soil upon which it was produced, nnd a bushel of wheat produced on the nver ngo at a less expense than the "cost of a day's labor has been at some expense to the soil; or, in other words, the soil is not in as good condition for future crop ns when the last crop was removed prior to sowing the wheat. A crop of wheat sown upon laud niter barley or other spring crops that liad been previously manured, may have cost less per bushel than the cost of a day's labor, so far as tho cost of fitting of tho soil, seed, har vesting, etc., of that crop, because part of the expense chargeable to that crop had been previously applied. Labor that cost 84 per month nnd board for eight or ten months would average not less than $1.25 per day for the entire season, board included. Estimating the crop at twenty-live bushels per acre (which is above, rather than below, tho average), laud at $80 per acre, $1 for taxes per acre, and charging the crop with interest and .taxes for one year only, we have found that our crop has cost us above $1.50 per bushel. The nnnnol decrease of the area sown to wheat in the State of New York is suf ficient proof that my estimato of the cost per bushel is low rather than high. I find bv my jonrnal that th j average price received for wheat for the past twenty years has been above $1.80 per bushel. If there was a profit of $1, or even lifty cents, the area sown would largely iucrease instead of decreasing. Household Hints. Liquid Glue. Melt half n pound of tho best Flanders glue in n pint of vine gar, and add four ounces of brandy. Potato Cakks. Take mashed pota toes, ilour, a little salt, and melted butter (to make them sweet, add a little pow dered loaf sugar), mix with just enough milk to make the paste stiff enough to roll, make it the size and thickness of n muffin, and bake quickly. Spice Cake. One and one-half cups butter, two cups sugar, two eggs, ono teaspoonful of soda dissolved in one cup cold water, four ui.d one-half cups flour, ono tablespoonful each of cinnamon and nutmeg, three-quarters spoonful cloves, as that is a strong spice. Fruit is a great improvement. Gkavy for Veal or Chicken. Put n tablespoonful of butter in a hot frying pan. When it begins to brown dust a tablespoonful of flour into it, stirring constantly with a spoon ; add salt nnd pepper ; then pour in one pint of milk cream, if you have it ; let it boil live minutes and pom- over the dish of meat. German Apple Pudding. Take n deep tin pudding dish and cover it with a layer ol tho best pie crust. Have some good tender apples cut fine, nnd spread over the paste a layer of apples, with sufficient sugar for sweetening, and cin namon and nutmeg to taste ; again a layer of apples, etc. , until your dish is tilled, when you pour over it a teacupful of cream, add your cover nnd bake to a light brown. Two Farmcis. There nre two of my brother farmers of whom I think a great deal, that nre uniformly successful in business. They nre both intelligent, honest, sensible men. Their farms join, and although they nro equally respected in our com munity, still strangers often speak of the one as shiftless, while the other is praised for his thrift. We who live neighbors to them know that this is a false classifi cation. The foundation of this mistake lies just here : The one keeps his fence corners scrupulously clean, and never allows a weed to grow whore there is no crop, any more than on the cultivated fields, while the other pays every ntten tion to his crops, and never clears his fence corners. There is a good deal in working nn occasional day for appear ance sake it saves vile imputations sometimes. I have never dared tell my neighbor of this, but if he reads it per liaps he will not think unkindly of the reminder if I call no names. There are a good many people who would have a better reputation if their, fence corners were clean. NEWS OF THE DAY. Item ol Interna trout Home nnd Abrnml.

Cattle on the Cars. In shipping cattle in cars, says a drover, it is absolutely necessary that the animals should be Kept upou their feet. The cattle will lie down at times; one steer gets cast upon the top of an other, and unless the underneath one is quickly extricated he will die of suf focation. The labor is to get half suffo cated steers on to their feet. This is done by prodding them with spiked poles, twisting their tails, and, in very extreme cases, in other ways, such as gouging them, putting tobacco in their eyes, etc. Jlut exhibitions of brutality on the part of shippers are not so com mon ns is generally supposed, nud I noticed that the railroad men quickly rebuke anything of the kind. A sulky bullock is certainly a most exasperating animal, and it is only in such cases and when their tempers are sorely tried that shippers display brutality. As to the use of the pole and twisting the tail ingniy objectionable as tuey nnaonoteii ly are I do not see how the handling of cattle could be carried on without it. It is a momentary pain, nnd, by causing the cattle to get up, it certainly saves them from the slow tortures of gradual suffocation.

It covers about four acres, which is laid out like a vil lage, with streets nnd avenues, along which nre built long rows of houses of various designs. Regular families of nens nro assigned to tnese nouses, and it is found that they quickly domesticate themselves without'troubling their neigh bors. The population of the village is about 2,000, divided closely into social cliques of Brahmas, Cochins, Shang haes, and Dorkiugs, nnd the chief pro ducts are eggs and spring chickens. Sundays included, the industrious ma trons of the village turn out daily from forty to fifty dozens of eggs, which are sold in Denver for from thirty to fifty cents a dozen. The brothers Gaff ex press but a single regret, aud that is that they did not found their colony fif teen years ago, when eggs brought five dollars a dozen, and a spring chicken was worth a pennyweight of gold dust. We trust the time will come when every one will use Dobbins' electric sonp (made by Crngin & Co., Philadelphia). Its sale is daily increasing, as is always the case with articles of merit. Try it.

A Rnngoon correspondent of tlio Lou don Ttmcs wntea to that lournal ns follows : While Bengal Las lately strug gled through n famine crisis, the Kurens couutry, lying on tue counties of iiur niah j.roper, has narrowly escaped a crisis of the same kind, but in this in stance rats, and not drought, were the cause of the scarcity. It appears that certain parts of Burmah are periodically visited by a plague of rats. Hosts of them march across county, and attack the roots of the crops and the grain iu the villages, aud actually drive out the people, and cause whole villages to be deserted by their depredations. Such a plague had appeared near Tonnghoo, and some suffering had arisen in conse quence, but the government appear to have provided food for those in want of it, and all fear of famine is how averted. A forester, but a few weeks si ice, as he was going to visit the teak forests rented by a large firm in Bombay, witnessed the passage of an army of rats ns they crossed the Sittang. Ho was at that time gliding down stream in his boat, and the boatman called his attention to a large black moss swarming down the nigh banks. They turned out to be rats, nnd as they swam across tho river they kept a kind of military formation. He represents their numbers to have been myraids. They passed close to the boat, and wero large field rats. The late Dr. Mason, in his book on Buhmah, mentions the plague they were to the couutry, but until their depredations had spread to such a large extent as they did lost year their presence was ignored. It appears that they generally keep near hilly couutry, and scour the plains at seasons when tho nut3 or fruits in the hills fail them. A Good Thiinr. To prevent the numerous accidents to which railroad trains are liable from one car jumping the track, it is proposed to apply to cars a kind of shoe, consisting 01 a clamp-like arrangement which is af fixed between tho wheels of each truck. This runs about two inches about the rail, and if anything happens to throw the wheels from the track, tho clamp nt once grasps the rails, holds tho car on the track, nnd brings the train to n speely halt, buch a shoe will, it is claimed, prove a groat saving of railroad rolling stock, and will add one-third to the strength of the truck, it being con structed of iron and weighing nbout five hundred pounds. It is found, by ex periments made with cars provided with this device, that the arrangement insures perfect security against the class of acci dents it is deigned to meet; and it is also estimated that, on account of the additional strength which such nn at tachment must necessarily supply, a car must last twice as long, on an nverage, with as without it.

About Labor. John Walter, M. P., principal Mr. proprietor of tho Loudon Time, in a re cent address, calls the " gospel " of many bad workmen in various parts of the world the adage that " good work is bad for trade." Iu other words, thor oughly and honestly manufactured ar ticles " last too long. J. he tendency ol competition is cheapness rather than ex cellence: but those who follow this idea forget that the reputation of the work man is found iu the durability of his work, and that when an article breaks or falls in the hands of the purchaser, the character of the maker breaks or falls with it. The discipline of labor is to teach conscientious thoroughness. The workman fbould take pride in his work, or, to use a significant expression, " put his character into it." The sentences with which the address concludes are: No station is bo high as to be exen.pt from this duty; none so low as not to be dignified by the faithful discharge of it. The works themselves upon which all this labor is bestowed must, of neces sity, perish: but the qualities which have been gained by the faithful aud honest discharge of the daily duties of life will endure forever, and hud scope for their exercise in a higher and nobler sphere. Antidote When any Or remedy for any particular class of disease obtains a wide-ppreading noto riety, it is but reasonable to suppose that it must merit the popularity it receives. It is within our province to mention that Dr. J. Walker's California Vinegar Bit ters, so long and favorably known as the safest and most reliable remedial agent for the cure of liver, kidney, bladder, and glandular diseases, mental and physical debility, and all complaints emanating from a corrupt state of the blood, etc., are in great demand. o satisfied are we of the intrinsio worth of this medicine, that we do not hesitate to notice it in our oolumns. It is well to mention that this medicine is compound ed of roots, herbs, and flowers of Cali fornia, and has no fiery material or al cohol used in its preparation. We can add no better eulogium than the fact that we use it constantly iu our own family, and each member thereof par takes of it, when necessary, according to direonoua. The "Housekeeper" of our Health. The liver is the (neat depurating or blood cleansing organ of the HVHtom. Set the groat houHtkeeper of our health at work, and the foul cormptioDH wbich gender in the Wood and rot out, as it wero, tho machinery of life, are gradually expelled from the HTBteiq, For thin purpose Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dieeovcry, with small daily doncfl of Dr. Pierce's rieasaiit Purgative Pellets are pre-eminently the articles needed. They cure every kind of humor from the woi'rt scrofula tn the common pimple, blotch or eruption. Great eating ulcers kindly lieal under tlieir mighty curative influence. Virulent blood poisons that lurk iu the Byxtom are by tbem robbed of tlieir terrors, and by their persevering and somewhat protracted ime the most tainted system may be completely renovated and built up anew. Enlarged glands, tumors aud swellings dwindle- away aud disap pear under the influence of their great resol vents. Bold by all dealers in medicines. CYmi. As Buoad as Civilization.
