Ei WORD TO FARMERS ABOUT BALLING
F
EIR PRODUCE.—&TMeI are often
Lmed for: not selling their produce as
an as it is ready for marltet. And it
Ist be confessed that those who do so,
;ing oneyear with another, do quite as
41, all things considered, as these who
Id on in hopes of getting ,higher
ices. They obtain their money soon
er harvest, and are enabled tb use It
advantage. Dealers in grain can ob
n money much more easily thin farm
., and consequently hold their grain
3ger.
While, therefore, we think farmers of
t do better by selling early, there is
11 room for the excercise of judgment.
1e reason why it ismsLially best to sell
71y is, that most farmers are disposed
hold on to their grain as long as possible,
it when the time comes that they must
p s there are more, sellers than buyers,
the price declines.
It is a curious fact that people gener
'y are more inclined to sell when prices
low than when they are nigh. When
was eighty cents a pound it was
'ire difficult to induce 'farmers to sell
'tin when it was forty cents per pound.
tat fall, with red wheat at $2,25 in the
;erior of Michigan, farmers hesitated
tiger in making up their minds to let
sir crops go than they did last summer
Aen they were offered $1,25 for the
me wheat. It is a good rule to sell
ien you can get a price that will afford
good living profit. Farmers, at the
eaent time, would have been richer by
Illione of dollars than they now are had
'ay adopted this rule last autumn. We
:ow of a great many who sold wheat
is summer for one dollar a bushel less
an they refused for it last fall. The
mile nation suffered greatly by this in
oposition to sell when a good price
uld obtained. We might have
ipped all our surplus wheat to England
'a fair price, but by holding on We lost
a opportunity, and finally sold at a price
'low the cost of production. We should
`-ze the lesson to heart.
On :the other hand, when prices are
w, we should not be in a hurry to sell.
' f und wheat is an article that will keep,
d it is an artiale that is always required,
id it is absolutely certain that it cannot
tag remain at a price much below the
;fuel cost of production. We cannot
dd out hopes to such farmers as only
.:ow ten or twelve bushels of wheat per
e, that they will obtain prices sufficient
compensate them for their labor. The
.ntry must be in a very unsatisfactory
dition when such is the case; but we
firmly believe that there is no reason
doubt that a farmer who raises good ;
, i •• , .bps is safe in calculating that sooner or
:ter he will be able to obtain such a price
his wheat as will enable him to make
. tsar profit. •
::.:There is one fact in this connection that
•tould,not be overlooked. In a cool, wet,
e season in England, the wheat crop is
..ways below the . average. And they
• ii.ve had sueh a season the present year.
:oa the other hand; it is very doubt
-1 if -the wheat crop of the United States
las large as was anticipated. We feel
lerably certain, therefore,
that before
other harvest, wheat willbring a price
ifficiently high i to 'afford the wheat
lower a good living profit. He should
satisfied with this. He should be in
i hurry to take less.
:The question arises: What price should
e obtain for wheat,' to afford us a fair
•ofiq At the present price of imple
:ents, machines, and, other necessary ar
liles, not forgetting labor and taxes, we
:all riot obtain extravagant profits if we
31 good, sound red or amber winter
heat—say in Michigan—for $1.50 per
tshel. A farmer who raises anything
ts than twenty bushels per acre will not
pt very rich, even if he obtains, in our
•esent currency, $1.75 for red wheat,
Id $2.00 for choice white wheat. When
a can get these figures in ordinary Bea
ns, it is not safe to hold on too long;
,tt when, immediately after harvest, the
ice is much below these figures, those
Ito can afford to hold their wheat run
:ry, little risk of loss ir& doing so.—

TOO .ILITCH LAND.
We know a farmer who, ten years ago,
vned 150 acres, and was doing well;
now owns five hundred, and is worse
T than before. And why? Because
,is large farm is a great bill of expense
him; he cannot afford to keep it up in
,od condition, and it hangs a. mills:one
care about his neck. His wife and
fildren, both sons and daughters, are
oliged to work hard to keep the great
:achine a running. We presume hts
oys declare they will leave home as soon
they axe old enough; and the girls say
iey will die before they will marry far
iers. - Neither sons nor daughters are
located as they deserve to be; they can
pt be spared for this from work on the
g faxm.
Now,vve declare that such a farm is a
irse to its possessor and his family, and
4 injury to the whole agricultural inter
it. It' that man wants to save himself
ad household, he should sell at least one
alf. of his land, improve the remainder
make it productive, release his chi'.
Fen from bondage, and try to make his
ome a comfort. He will live longer, lay
to . as good property, and will train up a
4ore intelligent and a happier family. --

WHY PORK SHRIEKS IN THE POT.
An "Old Farmer" gives in The Home
iad the'verious notions on this question,
',el closes with his own views on the sub.
';ct, which we condense below for our
t.,aders
Store hogs kept low in flesh in summer
nd autumn, and then fully fed when
.lut up for fattening, will gain fast, sp
•ear to be doing well, and look well
rhen dressed, but win weigh light, and
oiling will prove the flesh to be puffy, the
ttle cells, of which the meat seems to be
Imposed, are filled with gelatinous
iatter,which has not had time to become
ard and firm—it is hardly soluble in
oiling water; hence pork shrinks in the
Ot. The same kind of pork results froth'
, Jeding hogs on mostly animal food, as at
.aughter houses, and from Irregular feed
igolr from killing sows when in heat.
To produce pork that will not shrink
1 the pot, the writer says', that he first
as ngood oreed; they are never allowed
) fall off in good condition from the
Eart , they get ; ith their mother's milk,
nd never know stint or stunt while alive.
:arty in autumn .be takes them np in
igh Or4r ' and begins to fatten them,
icreasing their rations of grain till they
re fat and ready to kill. Then he feeds
nut one week more, and makes due
reparations for butchering, which is
,
done early in the day by good hands.
'When thoroughly cooled cute zip - and'
salts down - . (not allowing his pork .to
freeze), using plenty of the best salt,
and filling up the barrels ; with brine, i nd
not with water as some do. This method
secures pork, white firm, compact, and
almost as solid as marble, which. when
well cooked, will be tender, juicy, melt
ing and delicious, never lirinklng in the
pot.
' Tnz employment of try, pulverized
earth as a deodorizer for poultryhouses,
appears, says the Loudrt. Field, to be
t,,,
worthy of more ,atten on than it has
hitherto received. The fact that four
hundred to five hundred f wls can by this
aid be kept in one building for months
together, with less smell than is to be found
in an ordinary fowl-hotMe capable of ac
commodating a dozen chickens, is very
conclusive- as to its efficacy. In the build
ing of the National Company, where this'
'fact has been ascertained,) seven or eight
fowls are kept in each compartment,
twelve feet by three feet, and there is no
Smell or trace of moisture. It should be
stated that the droppings 1 that fell from
the perches during the night are removed
from the runs each morning, and that the
diy earth only receives the manure that
falls during the day; this has its moisture
absorbed so speedily by . the earth, that it
at once becomes pulverized, mixes with
the soil and ceases to smelt So powerful
is the deodorizing effect of the earth that it
does not require to be I t r i iewed in the
runs for many weeks toge er.
THE following receipts for preserves
are from Mrs. Putnan's Recipe Book :
Quinces. The orange quince is the
best to preserve. Peel and core the
quinces, weigh a pound of crushed sugar
to a pound of quinces; put the peel and
cores into a kettle with just enough water
to cover them. Let this simmer about
two hours; then strain the liquor, put it
back into the kettle, and put in as many
quinces as the liquor will cover; boil
them until they are tender, take them out
add put them on a flat dish to cool; put
in more until all are boiled, then put the
sugar in, and let it boil until it becomes a
syrup; then put in as many quinces as the
unto will cover; let them boil about
thirty minutes; put them on a flat dish to
cool; and then more until they are all
boiled; then boil the syrup until all the
water is, boiled out of it: When the
quinces are cool, put them into the jars
and strain the syrup while it is hot
through a very fine sieve on the quinces.
- Peaches,— Weigh to a pound ' of
peaches a pound of sugar; put the peaches
into a preserving kettle, and turn on boil
ing water, enough to just cover them,
and let them boil ten minutes. Take
them out carefully on a flat dish to cool,
then peel them with your fingers, to keep
the shape, take a little of the water that
they were boiled in, add the sugar, and
let it boil until it becomes a syrup. Pat
in a few peaches at a time, so as not to
crowd them; when they are done put
them on a dih to cool. Lay them care
fully info a jar, boll the - syrup a few min
utes after the peaches are down, - and strain
it hot over the peaches.
Another Mode—Peel the peaches;
weigh a pound of sugar to a pound of
peaches; strew half the sugar on to the
peaches, and let them stand over night.
Next day turn off the syrup, and add the
rest of the sugar; boil the syrup about
fifteen minutes- i put in the peaches and
boil them until they are tender; take theta
out to cool, then put up in jars and strain
the syrup hot into them ; let them stand
two'or three days. If th e syrup has be
come thin at the top of -the jar, turn the
peaches into a preserving kettle, give
them one boil, and put them into jars
when cold. Put paper wet with brandy
over the mouth of jars, and then a blad
der over it, and tie them up.
Boiled Custard.—To one quart of milk
add'four well beaten eggs and a cup of
white sugar; flavor with lemon or va
nilla. Pet this in a tin pail, which set in
a kettle of boiling water, letting it remain
until the custard`just boils then remove
to a cool place.
'Cadifirnia Cakes.—One cup of butter, '
two cups of sugar, three eggs, one cup'of
sweet milk, two teaspoonalul of cream
tartar, one of soda, three and one-half
cups of-flour. Flavor with lemon.
To Cook Vegetable Oysters.—Dress the
roots nicely and cut in slices one-fourth
of an inch th;ck, boil in water till tender;
have some slices of bread toasted and
placed in a deep dish; add sweet cream to
the oysters and season with butter, salt
arid pepper to suit the taste; let it boil a
minute or two and turn over the bread;
cover the dish a few minutes, and it is
ready for use. Or roots may be cooked
and served as their namesake.
Boiled :radian Pudding.—Take one
pint of sour milk, half a teacup of molas
ses, two 'tablespoonfuls of butter or lard,
one teaspoonful of soda, one half cup of
chopped raisins, or any kind of fruit; stir
in cornmeal as thick as can be stirred.
Boil two hours in tin pudding dish, with
a lid to shut tight, leaving room to rise.
Serve with sugar and cream, flavored
with lemon or vanilla or sweet sauce or
syrup.
Corn Puffs.--Sla heaping tablespoon
fuls of Ika, three of corn meal, three
eggs, one pint of milk, one ounce cloves,
one ounce• allspice, half ounce cayenne
pepper, two ounces mustard seed, and
boll the whole three hours.
A Cheap Onget.—A large cup of bread
crumbs, soaked in milk and beaten soft;
four eggs; yolks and whites separately
beaten; salt andpepper to taste. Fry in
lard or butter and turn out on a dish the
size of the pan in which it is cooked.
To Remove Grease - Elpote.—Make a bat
ter of wheat flour and cold water, and
apply to the wrong side of the cloth; dry
slowly •by the fire, , and when perfectly
dry rub off the flour and the grease will
be found inlssing. Very thick' woolen
goods may sometimes require a second
application. < <
Receipt) for Colon& —For one gallon of
alcohol take one ounce and a half of oil
or bergamot,. one ounce of lemon, quar
ter of an ounce oil of nutmeg, quarter of
an ounce oil of rosemary, quarter at an
ounce oil of lavender, and two grains'of
musk. A less qnantity can be made by
using the mime proportion. -
Pears.—Pears, like peaches and quin
ces, should be put. In cold water IMMe.
diately after paring,; to preserve the color.
Let them boll until tender. Fill the jars
and fill with hot syrup; seal immedi
ately. , •
A Oheisp ind Detteloto .fudding.—
Take four tablespoonfuls of flour, which
mix gradually into a quart of 'Milk; add

YITTSB,
Itgr" SCHENCIVII PULMONIC
bYELP. • ISM&WIMMiI TONIC AND
MANDRAKE PILLS will cure Consumption,
Liver Complaint They pepsia, if taken ing to directions. are all three to betaken
at the same time. They.cleanse the stomseb, re.
lax th., livor 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. Baena. Of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivaled success In the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Pub.
mcnalc Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the
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.
do this, the Seawetd Tonic and Mandrake
Pills must be irtely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver, so that the Pu.bnunic Syrup and the
food will make good blood.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver,
removing all obstructions, relmithe duels of the
gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver
Is soon relieved the stools will show what the
,Pills can du; nothing has ever been invented ex.-
' cept calomel (a deadly po'son wi.igh Is very dan
gerous to use n n ass with great care,) that will
nulock the gall-bladder and start the secretions
of the liver like Scheeck's Mandrake Pills.
Liver Complaint la one of the most prominent
;muses of Consumption.
Schenck 's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative. and the alkali in the Seaweed,
which this preparation is made Mt, assists the
stomach to tnrow out the gastric juice to dissolve
the focal with the Puiruonic Syrup, and It is made
into good brood without fermentation or souring
In the stomach.
The great reason why physicians do not cure
Consumption Is, they try to do too much• they
sgive medicine to stop the cough,
andtop chills, to
top night sweats, hectic fever, by so doing
they derange the whole digestive powers, lock
ing up the secretions. and eventually the patient
sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck, in his treatment, does not try to
stop a cough, night sweats, chills or fever. Me
move the cause, and Limy 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
stomach are made healthy.
If a person way are
eitherurse the
tinge in some way are diseased, tubercles,
abeesses, 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 lungs tnat are wasting, but it
the whole body. The stomach and liver have lost
their power to make blood out of fo •d. Now tile
only chance is to tate Dr. Schenck's three medi
cines, which will bring up a tons to the stomach,
the patient will begin to want food, 'twill digest
easily and make good blood; then the patient be
girt' to gain lu flesh. and as soon as the body be
gins to grow, the lungs commence to heal up,
and the patidat gets fit ihy and well. This is tae
only way to cure Comlumption.
When there is no lung disease and only Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia, Schenck's Seaweed
Tonic and Mandrake Pills are sufficient, without
the Pulmonic Syrup. Take the Mano rake Pills
freely in ail billions complaints, as they are per
fectly harmless.
Dr. Schenck, who has enjoyed uninterrupted
health for many years past, and now weighs 115
pounds. was wasted away to a mere skeleton, in
the very last stage of Pulmonary Consumption,
hi. physicians having pronounced his case hope
less and abandoned him to his fate. He wak cured
by the aforesaid met icines, 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
sonally see Dr. Schenck, unless patients wish
their lungs examined, and for this purpose he is
profesaltmally at his Principal Office, Philadel
phia, every Saturday. where all letters for advice
must be addressed. He is also professionally at
