TIIE Ohio Ciativatqc says the following
recipe is worth one thousand dollars to •
every housekeeper: Take, one pound of
of sal soda and half a pound of unslacked
lime and put them in a gallon of water,
boil twenty minutes, let it stand till cool,
then drain off and put in a small jug or
jar; soak your dirty clothes over night,
or until they are wet through, then
-Wring them, and rub on plenty of soap
and water, add one teacupful of the
washing fluid; boil half an hour or more
rinse, and your clothes will, look better
than by the old way of washing twice
before boiling. This is an invaluable
receipt and every poor tired woman
should try it. •
Blackberry Cordial is made by adding
one pound of white sugar to three pounds
of ripe blackberiles,. allowing them to
stand, twelve hours; then' pressing out
the juice, straining it, adding one third
spirit, and puttingk teaspoonful of finely
i
powdered allspice n every quart of cor
dial, it is at once fit for use. This wine
and cordial are very valuable medicines
in the treatment of weakness of stomach
and bowels. and are especially valuable
in the summer complaints of children.
Saltidg Butter.—The question of salt
ing or not Salting butter is now being agi
tated. It is claimed that salt is a foreign
element in butter and materially detracts
from the richness and delicacy of its fla
vor. The French do not salt their butter,
and those who get accustomed to its use
are said to find the taste of salted butter
very offensive on returning to it' again.
Sugar may be worked into butter with
advantage.
Making Yeast.—The Hearth and Home
gives the following receipt for making
yeast: Two handfuls of hops, two quarts
of water. Boil well, and strain on to
three large potatoes grated, three large
spoonsful of molasses, and two of salt.
Stir well tozether, and when cool add a
pint of yeast. When light, bottle and
keep in the spring or ice house.
How to Make Tomato Figs.—Pour boil
ing water over the tomatoes in order to
remove the skins; then weigh them and
place them in a stone jar, with as much
sugar as you have tomatoes, and let them
stand two days; then pour off the yrup,
and boil and skim it until no scum rises.
Then pour it over the tomatoes, and let
them stand two days, as before; then
boil and skim again. After the third time
they are fit to dry, if the weather is good;
if not, let them stand in syrup until dry
ing weather. Then place on large earthen
plates or dishes '
and put them in the sun
to dry, which will take about a week,
atter which pack them down in small
wooden boxes, with fine sugar between
each layer. Tomatoes prepared in this
manner will keep for years.
To Destroy Colorado Potato Bugs.—
' Take one pound of Paris Green (cost 60
cents) and mix with two ponds of flour.
Sift the mixture through a coarse muslin
cloth, upon the potato tope, early in the
morning, when the dew is on the tops.
The bugs will drop to the ground uy
thousands never to rise again. The above
quantity of ingredients will answer for
an acre of potatoes.
Short and Useful Raid to find how
many bushels In a box:—Multiply its'
length, breadth and depth, in feet, togeth
-er; and you have Of number of solid feet,
which being multiplied by 45, and the
product divided by 56, gives the number
of bushels. Because one solid foot is just
45 56 of a bushel.
.Exemple.—How many bushels in a
box four feet wide, two feet deep and ten
feet long? 4, 2 and 10, multiplied togeth
er, give 80= solid feet, which, multiplied
by 45 56 gives 64 bushels. If it is ears
of corn, deduct what you wish for space
occupied by Cobs. -
Working animals need good feed if they
are put to hard labor. If possible, turn
them out to grass for a few weeks, to be
ready fur autumn work. Oxen ought to
have rood long ..t‘ncion spells." Horses
stand great heat;,:better; a good driver
will give his team drink as often as he 1
drinks himeelf, Working horses will be
greatly refreshed by being turned into
the pasture as soon as they are cooled off
and fed, and let out over night.

Blackberries should be kept pinched
- back. The leading shoot should have
been stopped at five feet. Now, keep all
side shoots back to eighteen inches, and
the reward will be seen in next year's
crop. 'Remove the old canes as soon as
the fruit is off, and hoe off all undesired
suckers. So with raspberriee,which have
the same general way of growth.
If you plow down your weeds before
they go to seed they , will prove a benefit
to your land instead of a curse. If they.;
are allowed to go to seed they; will be a
source of endless trouble.. Plowed under,
they are worth as much as a dressing. of
manure. Besides enriching the soil they
tend to keep it lodse; If you add from
twenty.five to fifty bushels of lime per
acre to the ground, and harrow it in, it
will convert your weeds into plant food.
How to Dig Post Holes. —As the time
for making fence is approaching, I would
like to tell how' any man may dig from
one hundred and ,forty to one hundred
and sixty post holes in eight hours. The
best tool for this purpose is a spade. The
holes should be two and a half feet deep,
and the square of the spsde in size. They
are very much easier dug of this size,
and very few need be dug larger.
• After removing the soil, strike the spade
into, say, the north , side of the hole; pull
the spade gently northward and upward,
without permitdng the earth to touch the
sondi.jside of the hole; walk around; the
hole, repeating'theprocess on each side.
You will find that the dirt will adhere to
the spade, provided it is not raked off by
rintact with the opposite side. The lett
and need not be used, except to give
rection to the blows , of the spade. The
rt'iS easily removed -- from the spade by
triking It on theground.

Pinching Cucumber Vines..— had 'a
narrow border, not more than two and a
half feet - wide; ori ; the edge of a paved
yard, encloeed by a high fence. - r planted
three cucumber hills in the . border, and
laid some brush (such aids used for pes.,
vine,) between them and the fence. As
soon as they crept up to the top of the
brush, I pinched off the ends of the vine
which thickened rapidly around the roots
in every direction, throwing out the most
vigorous foliage And proinsion of their
• ~ flowers. -, • ~. , . .. t . 0, ,,

but watched them, and such as I wished
to reserve for the table I picked as soon
as they became of proper size; all the rest
'were gathered every day for pickles;
every day pinching off the bud at the end
of each shoot. In this way the hill con
tinued fresh and productive until they
were touched by the frost. Some judg
ment can be formed or the value of this
practice when I add that more than a bar
rel of pickles were made from three hills,
besides allowing a supply for the table.
Whenever the leaf began to look rusty
or yellowish, it was removed, and every
cucumber and the leaf was cut off with
large scissile, so as not to disturb or
wound the vine. There is an advantage
in having them run up on brush instead
of trailing over the ground; because they
are much injured by being trodden on,
and by being kept low on the bushes
they can be easily and thoroughly exam
ined every day.—Cor. Hortieultariet.
Late Bowing.—Wheat that is Bowen
late generally results in total or partial
failure. --It may be safely said that four
out of fitozcrops sown in October, in this
section, fail to produce payinresults.
The c hances paying results.
are heavily against all such
crops. The attempt to force them for
ward with fertilizers and manures has
resulted only in producing a luxuriant
growth, but failed to hasten the ripening
process. The best effect of manure on
late crops was obtained when the manure
had been applied the year before the
wheat was sown. This, with well drain
ed land, a rolling surface and a Southern
exposure, will ripen wheat six or eight
days earlier-than when sown on a level
soil without drainage and favorable ex
posure.
Our experience is general that when
wheat is sown in season, evenLwhen the
soil is not rich and the cultivation indif
ferent, the crop isfair if the season be
favorable. A f years ago, when the
fly attacked thwheat in the fall, late
i
sowing was ado ted. The result was a
greater loss than hen damaged by the fly.
The wheat ripen d late and was attacked
both by rust aid the wheat weevil.
Wheat should be own in September, and
never later th the 10th of October.
Otherwise the w eat midge, and the rust
which comes with hot, sultry weather,
will be sure to destroy it. Select healthy,
early varieties of seed, drain and culti
vate well, sow eerly, and the chances for
a good crop are greatly increased.
Improvement Of
,Worn-Out land; with
Gran and C/over.—A correspondent of
the New 'York Times writes to that paper
as follows : 1 \
I will tell my experience onli poer , farm
in 'Rhode Island, of 150 acres, one too poor
to keep'a yoke of oxen, one cow and one
horse in good condition. This farm was
worth at thariime about $4,000 or $5,000.
But a new man came along who thought
he could raise grass where none grew be
fore. He tried, with perfect success every
time. ' so that in a few years he kept about
fifty head of cattle, mostly cows, on the
place, and sold annually as many tons of
hay.
The modus aperandi was this:
1. Plow the land.
0 1 ,_
2. Harrow;
3. Spread 2 bushes per acre
4. Harrow.
5. Sow mille and clover.
6. Harrow.
7. 'Roll.
8. Cut half ton of millet to the acre in six
weeks from sowing time, enough to pay
expenses first year.
He then bail a good sted of clover,
whit& was cut twice the two'years. The
next year he ploWed under the clover,
harrowed, applied fifty bushels ashes to
the acre. harrowed it in; again sowed mil
let and clover, harrowed and gave it a
good rolling. In six weeks he had a
growth of millet, say two tons per acre,
and another good stand of clover. The
next year he cuts two crops of clover
again. The next year he turned under
the clover, applied his barn yard compost
of muck and cow manure which he had
been four yerrs preparing, and raised
eighty bushels shelled corn per acre. on
land that, before he commenced, was
called barren, and land that the neighbors
said, when he was applying thnashes,
was not worth, ashes and all, afterit was
mixed, what the ashes cost.
Now there are a great many inquiries
about how to 'raise clover. This 'man
never failed; he never thought of it, and
never dreamed of it, and never knew any
failure. He had a system in hie head,
(for he did not get it from books), which
he carried out like "clock work," and his
farm was beautiful to look at. He said
the land was not fit 'for manure, so he
took four years to get it ready.
He thought wales would produce millet
and clover, and the millet would protect
the young clover from the scorching 'sun
until it would need no protection.
The harrowing and rolling were indis
pensable. 1'
Au Orchard Marvel.
The St. Louis Republican says: All
the world has heard the story of the
,great atrocity of girdling 1,500 bearing
fruit trees at Benton Harbor, Michigan,
near St. Joseph, by some unknown mis.'
creant enemies of Martin Green, and hoW
the neighbors turned out and, like , the
man in Scripture, rent' their garments to
show their great concearn, and, in a gen
erons day's lospital work in the or
chard, bandaged the trees' With cloth
strips dipped in great .heated ket
tles of wax. A - Second - letter raid
of the rascally unknown spoilers
was similarly met, andnow for the sequel.
Every tree lived * , and has come out of
the trial bending under inch a frultage as
has not been before seen in Benton Har
bor. We have heard of no parallel to
this since the redoubtable Sparrowgrass,
who had his orchard browsed by his
neighbor's kine,i was told by the latter
that it "dicint‘ hurt trees a marvel to cho w
'em." All Benton Harbor and the region
round abort is filled with the marvel, and
an orchardist has promulgated a, new
theory of fruiting trees by .girdling them.
Whether or not it will be, deemed neces
sary, as In Charles Lamb's , story of the
discovery of roasting pigs, to go through
the whole process of girdling an orchard'
over night, and to have the village turn
out and repair -damages the next day,
here stands the story and the sequel, and
Martin Green is getting ready to send
shiploads of fruit to your market,

in to directions. They are all three to be taken
at the same time. They cleanse the stomach, re
lax the livor and pritit to work; then the appetite
-becomes good: the food digests and makes good
blood; the patient begins to grow in flesh; the
diseased matter ripens into thei lungs, and the
patient outgrows the disease and gets well. This
is the only way to cure consumption.
To these three medicines Dr. J. IL Schenck, of
Philadelphia. owes his unrivaled success in the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Pul
monk Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the
lungs, nature throws it off by an easy expectora
tion, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a
slight cough will throw it off, and the patient has
rest and the lungs begin to heal.
T do this, tile Seaweed lonic and Mandrake
Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup and the
food will make good blood.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver,
removing all obstructions. relax the duets of the
gall bladder,- the bile starts freely, and the liver
is soon relieved: the stools will show what the
Pills can do; nothing has ever been invented ex
cept calomel (a deadly poison w, Mb Is very dan
gerous to use' unless with great care.) that will
unlock the gall bladder and start the secretions
of the liver - like Scheuck's Mandrake Pills.
Liver Complaint hi one of trenifllst prominent
causes of Consumption.
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative. and the alkali In the Seaweed,
which this - preparation is made of, assists the
stomach to tnrow out the gastric juice to dissolve
the food with the Ptumonlo Syrup, and it is made
into Good blood without fermentation or souring
in the stomach.
:She great reason why physicians do not cure
Consumption is, they try to do too touch' they
give medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to
stop night sweats, hectic fever and by so doing
they derange the whole digestive . powers. lock.-
big up thekecretions, and eventually the patient
sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck, in his treatment, doer not try to
stop a cough, night sweats, chills or fever. Me.
move the cause, and tsey will all stop of their
own accord. =h o One can be cured of Consump
tion, Liver Complaint. Dyspepsia. Catarrh,

If a person has consumption, of course — the

abcesses, bronchial Irritation, pleura adhesion,
or the lungs are a mass of Inflammation and fast
decaying. In such cases what must be done? It
is not only the Mega tut are wasting, but It -Is
the whole body. The stomach and liver have lost
their power to make blood out of fo. d. Now the
only chance Is to rage Dr. Schenck's three medi
cines, which will bring up a tone to the - Stomach,
the patient will begin to want food, it will diges
e asily and make good blood; then the patient be

and the patient gets fleshy and well. This is the
only way to cure Consumption.
When there is no lung disease and only Liver
Complaint and DyspepSla, Schenck's Seaweed
Tonle and Mandrake Fills are sufficient., w ithont
the Pulmonic Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pills
freely in &II billions complaints, as they are per
fectly harmless.
Dr. Schenck. who has enjoyed uninterrupted
health for many years put, and now weighs 415
pounds, was wasted away to a mere skeleton, in
the very last stage of Pulmonary Consumption,
physicians having pronounced his case hope
less and abandoned him to his fate. Ile was cured
by the aforesaid me,. lanes, and since his recove
ry many thousands similarly afflicted have used
Dr. Schenck's preparation with the same re
markable success. Full directions accompany
each, making It not absolutely necessary to per

their lungs examined, and for this
