FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
FARMERS' WIVES
We can hardly blame young men and
young women for ditliking farm life, so
:long as we make it unattractive, even Te
pulsive. We must make our houses neat
and comfortable, and provided with books
and papers. the yard and garden must be
planted with shrubbery and choice trees;
kaitention must be given to 'raising the
better fruits and plenty of them; time
?lust be given La occasional recreations;
.nd labor must not be so hard and con
inuous as to make life seem an endless
rudgery.
• This is so specially with the ladies.
ow can the be expected to desire the
tof a farme a wife, when they see their
others bow d down prematurely with
r and car ? Measures must be taken
.o lighten thei burdens, or there will be
fewer and few reach year, who will con
' sent to bear t em. It would also be a
;,'great delivers ce if they could be relieved
from boarding hires men. Every large
'land prosperou farm demands the work
of several hire laborers. These are gen-
erally boarded and lodged, washed and
ironed, by the farmer's family. Now it is
no small task to provide three meals a
day for such a lot of hungry men, as well
as to do all the work demanded of women
; on such a farm. Then, aside from so
much cooking and washing, these labor
- era have to be provided for out of work
ing hours. They will occupy the kitchen
and perhaps find their way into the family
sitting room. But they are not always
clean in their persons and dress, nor de
i corona in their manners, nor agreeable in
their conversation. Now, it can herdly
I be expected that the wife and daughters
will be, contented and happy in such a
state of things. They can have little or
4 no leisure 'or privacy for 'reading, for
agreeable or improving conversation, or
receiving visitors; If they are contented
;
with it, , it only, !flows that they become
'willingly degraded, or have been broken
down and humbled to their unwelcome
, t. Neither' of which is a desirable
. ~
Plainly ,
Plainly enough, here is room for im
. provelnent. And one way to remove
Abe difficulty last named is to hire these
men boarded elsewhere, or to provide la
: borer's cottages for them on the farm,
where they can board themselves. Bach
houses can be put up at a cheap rate, and
' ~ one or two_of them will probably answer
for a fain; for the unmarried men can
I board with those who. have families.
These tenants can receive part of their
; wages in the shape of supplies , from the
Ifarm. They can board and lodge them
,
; selves cheaper and more satisfactorily
' than the 1 farmer's family can do it 'for
''; theni. Itlwill certainly afford a great re
' 1, , lief to the family, a relief which might
well be bought by a slight decrease of
-, : the ,farmex'a. income. In the name of
many thobsands of farmer's wiies and
children, we plead for; this reform,
I TWO PLOWINGS BEFORE SEEDING.
In the regular rotation of thin section,
wheat follows oats. Immediately on the
latter ,crop being taken oil the ground,
some farmers plough up the oats stubble
before the ordinary spell of dry weather,
c-Inearly always sure to occur in the pres
•ent month: Manure is then hauled on to
i the ground, spread and ploughed down,
. immediately preceding sowing the wheat.
Others, however, without this primary
• sowing, commence hauling their manure
! over the field, which becomes well coin
j pacted, dry and hard; then spread it and
plough in before seeding. In this dairy
: district bur most important crop is un
doubtedly the grass crop, comprising tin.
der this name both hay and pasturage;
i and It is therefore that the system of
ploughing twice before seeding is strong
, Ilyto be recommended, with a view to
..! more thoroughly aerate the soil, and
make a better bed for the reception of
tithe grass seed.
It is a 'very common experience 'that
grass 'always takes better after , two
ploughings. Our thfee crops in rotation
may be said indeed to be made more in
; reference to the subsequent grass crop,
than for any profit to the dairyman from
his crop of corn, oats or wheat. Grass
occasionally runs out, and is thought to
4 require plouching and reseeding. If the
• .-, fields could be well kept up in grass,
?..without ploughing, it is a question
ahether it would not be more profitable
:nix; a dairy farmer, with a good run of
. . - 1.),V25t0m,. to buy all his corn, oats and
wheat, instead of raising it.
Farmers do not seem ready to adopt
our recommendations ofplougiling twelve
inches deep. If they would do so, so as
to bring up some of what is called poor
soil, it would be found their grass fields
would remain much longer in grass,
without Reeding ploughing" up; ,but by
all means, they should put'in two plough
i ings before re.seeding.—PradicalFarmer

PEWIT SODDEN°.
As the time for fruit is upon us, growers
• are suffering from the depredation of pet
c ty pilferers. But now under the • act of
.11.860, the stealing of fruit from the trees
or on the ground, is a serious offence, and
;1 the remedy is simple and prompt, By
that judicious and effective law, the
ful % taking and carrying 'away of fruit,
vegetables, plants, vines, shrubs, or trees,
is made a misdemeanor punishable in the
: 1; Court of Quarter Sessions, and rendering
the offender liable to a fine of fifty dollars
iol d an imprisonment for sixty days., , The
• :'- urse of proceedings under this act is
plain and easy. A complaint before any
•littlderman or Justice is all that any person
i'ttut to do. The law will do .the rest..
t This is the criminal remedy against :the
plunderer and damaging of gardens or
yards, and it is the fault of the owners if
I they suffer.

COLIC IN HOWES.
Having recently had one of our horses
with a severe attack of colic, we publish
. ,
- •
PITTSBURGH Ga2RITE: • TUESDAY , AUGUST 241869
- •
the folloWiniiiinple remedy, which af
forded- prompt relief. It
.was furnished
us by. Dr. McClure, the well.known and
skillful Veterinary surgeon - pf this' city,
and which - he infoims tie - he has never
known to fail. Having several hundred
horses under his care, by the season, at
our principal railroad and other stables,
he has found this remedy so certain that
he keeps a bottle of the mixture' at the
stables. having instructed the postlers
how to administer it in cases of colic and
and to avoid the necessity of sending for
him. Itis as follows:
Aromatic spirit of ammonia, half an
ounce;
Laudanum, one and a•half ounce.
Mix with one pint of water, and ad
minister. If not relieved, repeat the
dose. —Practical Farmer.
A connESPONDENT of the Utica Herald
finds nothing equal as a destroyer of lice
on cattle, to 'a strong suds of soap and
rain water, to which is added common
salt. This is applied by rubbing thor
oughly over the animal.
HERE is an item worth remembering:
To Prevent Hones Being Teased by
Flies.—Take two or three small handfulls
of walnut leaves, upon which pour two
or three'quarts of cold water, let it infuse
one night and pour the whole next morn
ing into a kettle and let it boil for a quar
ter of an hour.—When cold it will befit
for use. - No more is required than to
moisten a sponge and before the horse
goes out of the stable let those parts which
are moat irritable be smeared over with
the liquor—viz: between and upon the
ears, the neck, the flanks, &c. Not only
the lady or gentleman who rides out for
pleasure will derive benefit from the wal
nut•leaves thus prepared. but the coach
'man, the wagoner, and all others who use
horses during the hot months.
Peach Jam, or Marmalade.—The fruit
for this preserve must be quite ripe and
perfectly sound. Pare, stone, weigh,
and boil it quickly for ee quarters of
an hour, and do not fail to stir it often
during that time; draw it from the fire,
and mix with-it ten ounces of well-refined
sugar, rolled or beaten to powder, for
each pound of the peaches; clear it cam
fully from the scum and boil it briskly for
five minutes; add the strained juice of one
or two good lemons; continue the boiling
for three minutes only, and pour out the
marmalade. Two minutes alter the sugar
is stirred to the fruit add the blanched
kernels of part of the peaches.
Tomato Catsup.—Take ripe tomatoes
and scald them just sufficient to allow you
to take off the skin; then let them stand
for a day, covered with salt, strain them
thoroughly to remove the seeds. Then
to every two quarts add three, ounces of
cloves, two of black pepper, two nutmegs,
and a very little Cayenne, pepper, with a
little salt. Boil the liquor for half an
hour, and - then let it cool and settle. 'Add
a pint of the best cider vinegar, after
which bottle it, corking and sealing it
tightly.• Keep it always in a cool place.
Another Way.—Take one! bushel of
tomatoes, and boil them until they are
soft. Squeeze them through a fine wire
siege, and add—halt a gallon of vinegar,
one pint and a half of salt, two'ounces of
Cayenne pepper, three tablespoonsful of
black pepper, five heads of garlic, skinned
and separated. Mix together, and boil
about three hours, or until reduced to I
about one-half. Then bottle without
straining.
Apple Custard Pies.—Grate, or stew to
a pulp, twelve large apples; to this add a
teaspoonful of salt, sugar, nutmeg, three
eggs well beaten, a pint of cream or milk
and a tablespoonful of melted butter, the
grated rind of two lemons and the juice
of one; pour the mixture into plates lined
with rich paste, and arrange strips in a
network over the top; bake a light brown
and sift over them powdered sugar.
To Increase the Sharpness and Strength
of Vinegar. —Boil two quarts (4 good
vinegar till reduced to one; then put it
in a vessel, and set it in the sun for a
week. Now mix the vinegar, with Bib
times its quantity of bad vinegar, in a small
cask; it will not only mend it, but make
it strong and agreeable.
Removing Grease Spots out of Silk. -
Take a lump of magnesia, and rub It wet
over the spot; let It dry, then brush the
powder off and the spot will disappear; or,
take a visiting card, separate it, and rub
the spot with the soft internal part, and it
will disappear without taking the gloss off
the silk.
Death to House Illies.—The following
mixture is recommended as "sure death"
to house flies: Half a spoonful of black
pepper in powder, one teaspoonful of
cream anit- a teaspoonful of sugar; mix
them well together, 'and place them in a
room where -the flies are troublesdpe, and
they will soon disappear. It won't cost
much to -try.
Derby Short Cakes. -Rub a half pound
of butter into one pound of flour, and
mix one egg, a quarter of a pound of
sifted sugar, and as much milk as will
make a paste. Roll this out then, and cut
the cake , with any fancy shapes or the top
of a wine glass. Placa on tin plates;
strew over with sugar, or cover the top
of each with icing, and bake for ten min
utes. .
Canary Birds are sometimes covered
with lice, which .cause 111 health and some.
times death. They can be`effectually re•
lieved of them by placing a clean white
cloth 'over their cage at night. In the
morning it will be covered with small red
spots, eo small as hardly to be seen, except
by the aid, of a glass; these are the lice, a
source.of great annoyance to birds.
A Cellar which opens Inside erdwelling
should be kept faultlessly, clean all the
year round assay other part of the house,
because its atmosphere is:Constantly as
cending and impregnates every room. in
the house withits own odors. In reality,
there Might not to be any cellar under
any dwelling.
,9gtte4ing Boots or shoes are. a great
annoyanCe, especially in entering a sick
room, or a 'ohne& after the service has
commenced; the remedy is, to boll lin
seed oil and saturate the soles with' the
same.
Blatered Hands and 24.51.—The speed.
iest remedy' is to light a. tallow candle
and let the melted tallow drop in cold
water, then mix the tallow with strong
spirits and rub it thOronghly into the
palms or soles; this is both a preventive
and curative. :"
Ibod:—The most easily digested arti
cles of food as yet known are sweet' ap
ples biked, cold raw cabbage Weed in
vinegar, and boiled rice; the most,lidi
gestlble are 'suet, boiled cabbage and Perk;
the former requires 84 hour, the latter
five.
Gratuz2n Bread.—Take the unbolted
flour of wheat, wet it with lukewarm
ser, add salt and yeast, knead , in , enough ,
more of this flour to make it stiff, add a
little molasses, and when risen, bake In
medium-slzed loaves.

SYIILP SEAWEED TONIC AND
mANTDHARE PILLS will care Consumption,
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, if taken word

at the sometime. They cleanse the stomach, re
lax the !Ivor and put it 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 the lungs, and the
patient outgrows the disease and gets well. This
is the only way to cure consumption.
To these three medicines Dr. J. H. Schenck, of
Philsdelphia, owes his unrivaled success in the
treatment of puhnonary Consumption. The Pal
motile Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the
lungs, nature throws It o ff by au easy expectora
tion, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a
slisht rough will throw it. off. and the patient has
rest and the lungs begin to heal.
T.. do this, tire ceawetd 'sonic end Mandrake

and liver. so that the relmonic Syrup and the
food will make good blood.

Schenck's Neaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative. and the alkali in the Seaweed,
which this preparation is made 01, assists the
Stomach to throw out the gastric juice to dissolve
the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, and it is made
into good b ood without fermentation or souring
in the stomach.
The great reason why physicians do not care
Consumption is, they try to do, too much: they
give medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills.**
stop night sweats, hectic fever. and by so doing
they derange the whole digestive powers, lock
ing up the seeret.ons, and eventually the patient
sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenc.k, in his treatment, does not try to
stop &cough, night sweat', chills or fever. Re.
move the cause, and racy will all stop of their
own accord. No one can be cured of Consump
tion, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia.' Catarrh,
Canker, Ulcerated Throat, unless the liver and
stoinach are made healthy.
If a person Cm consumption, or course the
nags in some way are diseased, either tubercles,
'themes, bronchial irritation,' pleura adhesion,
or the lungs are a mass of inflammation and fast
decaying. In such cases what must be dose? It
is not only the lungs tnat are wasting, but it 11
the whole body. The stomach aed liver have lost
their power to make blood out of fo d. Now the
only chance is to tale Dr. Schenck's three medi
cines, which will bring up a tone to the stomach,
the patient will begin to want food, It will digest
easily and make good blood; then the patient be
gins to gain in flesh. and as soon as the body be
gins to grow, the lungs cuirmence to heal up,
and the patient gets dearly and well. This is tne
