ALL OUT. A third-street woman went
out to make a call on a neighbor, just at
dusk, the other evening, and findiHj; only
a lonesome looking boy on tlie steps, she
asked :
'Where's your mother, bub ?'
On, 6he's gadded out somewhere.
'Where's your sister ?'
Gone off on the 'scursion.'
'Isn't your father at home V
'Haven't eeeen him for two da vs.'
'Well, what's become of the baby V
asked the woman, as she turned to go.
'The baby ? Why, some boys took him
down on Lewis street to see a dead cat-'
And whv don't you jo somewhere
asked the lady, as she shut the gaU.
I am goin waiting now to go with my
girl down to Michingau avenue to buy
Boms onions aud four crnta' worth of
chcries.'
The family didn't seem to care about
callers.
A friend went into Col- "s office the
other morning, and bustling up to the
fctovc, observed : 'God, hain't it cold !' aud
he looked at the Colonel. The Colonel
also looked at him but made no motion of
recognition. The f:ied acted cmbarascd,
and immediately look his leare. This
morning he met the Colonel lu bis own
office. 'Colonel,' he said, 'why didn't you
say something when I spoke to you the
other morning ?' You didn't address me,'
answered the Colonel. You said 'God,
ain't it cold ? and when a man asks the
Almighty a question, h is supposed not
to care for outside interference.' The
friend stared at the Colonel, but the Colo
nel was in earnest aud looked back at him
without weakening. It was a capital re
buke of a detestable habit.
CHALLENGING A WOMAN"? VOTE. A
woman at Medicine Bow, Wyomiug Ter
ritory, depositing her vote latt election day,
was surprised to here a rough sing out :
I challenge that woman's vote.'
'On what grouuds, sir ?'
'She hasn't been long enough in the Ter
ritory.' Did the woman sit down and cry oyer
it? It is uot to be recorded. Her dainty
little hand glided back into the folds of her
pullback, and th next thing Hint auda
cious cuss knew he was gazing into the
muzzle of a Derringer, while the fair voter
a lid :
'How long have I been in the Territory,
sit V
'Look out, madam lou't. That cuss
rd thing might go off lake it away ; I beg
your pardon ; I don't touch that trigger
I I I'm mistaken in the woman.
I'irase point that the other way. I'll lick
the sheep thief that says you haven't lived
right here in this town for ton years. I
swar I will.' He scooted around the corner
and she smilingly passed in her ticket.
A Smart-Looking young woman step
ed up to tell her wrongs in a London police
court. She had peeped through Mrs. Per
kins' keyhole and seen her faithless hus
band siting with his arms cucirkling that
lady's waist. The door was fastened.
Mic knocked, and Here stood Mrs. Perkins
nlonf, looking the very picture of inocence.
.'I look6 round, your Worship, and I sees
my villain's coat-tail a sticking out of
Mrs. Perkins' cal cupboard. I pulled
him out, and I scratched his face, 1 did,
aud lie cau't deny it. And I want your
Woiship's advico what I'm to do with him;
and I puts iu to your Worship what would
be the feeling of your Worship's good lady
if she saw your Worship's coat-tail a-stick-ing
out of another lady's coal cupboard ?"
Mn. Pauso.ns, a lawyer in Chicago, was
trying a case belore a jury, being counsel
for the prisoner. The 'judge was very hard
upon him, and the jury brought in a ver
dict of guilty. Mr. Parsons moved for a
trial. The jury denied the mo'.ion, aud
remarked : 'The court aud the jury think
llto prisoner a knave and a fiwl.' The
counsel promptly replied : 'The prisoner
wishes me to say he is perfectly twtted
he Las been tried by a court aud jury of
his peers 1'
A MAN in Frankford, going home at a
late hour of the night, saw that the occu
pants of a house standing flush withthe
street had left a window np, and he decided
to warn them aud prevent a burglary.
'Hallo, good peop ' That was all !ie
said. A whole pailful of water struck Lira
in the face, and, us he staggered hack, a
woman shrieked out, 'Didn't I tell you
what you'd get if you wasn't home at nine
o'clock ?'
An Exuortek Exhorted. At a re
cent prayer meeting of colored peojiele at
Erie, the decency and good orper of the
meeting being disturbed by a negro named
Crown, whose prayers in public were only
incoherent ravings, the pastor inquired :
'What fool niggar's dat prayin' down dar
nea' the do' ?' A dozen people replied
with one Yoi-c : .It am Brudder Brown,
sah.' 'Den,' replied the pastor, 'Brudder
Brown subside, and let some pray dat's
better :quainted wid dc Lord.'
As a Colored resident of Frankford was'
breasting the storm, with a new umbrella
over his head, he was halted by a friend
and who naked, 'Is dat your umbrella ?'
'Yes, sah cost roe; ?2,' wan the prompt
reply. 'Mr. Savage,1 said the other, verv
sole.inMiy, 'when a man will buy a S3 um
brella to keep the wetofTu a fifty-cent enit
of close, what's de iw to talk about econo
my ?'
A Down-Easier, while traveling
through the west, happened on one of its
representative tavern-keepers, of whom he
sked what could be furnished for dinner :
'Anything from a snipe to an elephant,'
was the reply. 1 will take a pice of ele
phant,' said the Dnwtn-Easter. 'You will
have to take a whole one,' was the rejoin
der : 'we never cut them.'
A Pawnee aboriginal presented his big
and 6lalwart form one Decmber day at the
hsuse of a well-to do family iu Lincoln.
The hostess pitied tlio savage, he being so
poorly clad, and so said : 'Are you not
cold this winterv day ?' lie iu turn in
quired if her face was cold. She replied in
the negative, whereupon he said : 'Ingin is
free all over.'
A small Boston boy, who had never at
tended chrch without his parents, sel out
to service by himself, last Sunday, but soon
returned, and, upon being nnked the reason
said, 'Why, when I got there, tlicv had a
table set, and as lhy Kormrd to bu expect

The "DOMESTIC" Is an exceedingly simple
machine iu all its parts and processes. It i
easily under ft tood ; familiarity with It action 1
very quiekly acquired, and it needs hardly any
practice of s cial skill in the operator.
The superior advantages obtained iu the "Do
ir.sTic" are mainly :
1. Light Running.
2. Quietneas no Cams or Gear Wheel.
a. Perfect Stitch Double-thread Lock Stitch.
4. Durability arising from Simplicity of Con
struction. 5. Absence of nil Frlctiou.
ft. tireul range of Work.
-7. Ease of 0K-ratIon.
Wo do uot say that the "DoutBiic" U the oaly
Machine worthy of p'jb'.ic favor. We admit
there are aoaie possessing real and acknow

to demonstrate, that the "Domestic" has many
excellences that rcuder It Otcitlnlly injttrior to

Let every woman, therefore, examine for hr

This Is au important purchase, uot to be care

Wisteb Protection to Land. The past
bevere winter tested one thing ; it has shown ns
that the effect of the protection of the land from
the frost. Seldom has such havoc been made In
any one winter. The drouth following in the
spring made things worse.
There was a Keneral lack of good crops of
winter giain and grass, the grain excepted iu
this immediate vicinity. There were some fields
of grass that tamed out well, but oftener to
parts of fields was this applicable. It was the
winter, including the severe spring, that had
such an influence in bringing this about, As
is always the case, tbe neglected land suffered
the most ; a well drained soil suffered the least,
and it is the only soil that contained the suc
cessful, or partially successful, crops of grass or
grain.; and the greatest barm seems to have
been done by the unusually severe frost of tho
the taring, hurting the plants in the first push
of their growth. The exceptions were and they
are interesting, because tlieir principle is more
or less subject to our control whera the snow
still lormed a cover, and where the fall growth
was a protection. Meadows having this were
saved if on land not too moist; especially was
tnis the case where the coat was a good one.
Even a heavy stubble of grain was a protection
to the thin seeding of grass anJ clover, for ua-
fortunately a heavy growth of graiu is unfavor
able to the young grass crop. There was an
other thing that engaged my attention ; what
fields that were put out easily and that was
the case here mostly mad a good growth,
the covering of which saved the crop.
Particularly was this the case with a field
worked by Mr. Walraih, oue of my neighbors
w ho put his land, of good natural drainage, in
the finest of order, (ground tolerably rich and
deep,) and put the seed in the latter part of
August, the good condition of the soil pushing
it forth, so that in eight or ten days it showed
above ground. This made gooilcoverinz for
winter, during the fall, aud was efficacious in
the spring, soon occupying the ground with the
growing crop, which was a farther protection
against the drouth which followed. The best
policy is to lei the plant protect ilself, whether
r grass or ot grain. I need not say that nature
designed th'i : it is her successful habit, and we
do well if we imitate her, and improve upon her
if we can and we can. WVcaa add much
which meets the principle a mulch of straw or
coarse manure, which is an excellent where fer
tility is needed. When the two mulches the
manure (or straw) and the crop itself are
united, all the better. Iu no case, therefore,
should meadows or pastures be dei:aded, and
wheat or rye should go into winter quaitrrs In
the same protected way. Sow early, or if at the
usual time, have the land in the best condition
drained and rich, with a mel'.o surface, and I
insUt ou a coat of manure as a rale, particu
larly where forage-seed is to be sown,"cither In
the fall or In the spring. Protection is the word,
as the past winter has plainly demonstrated,
and as almost every winter aaandantly testifies
in this northern climate.
Effects of Cold is Fattbm.no. A producer
of pork in Mnskiiigham oounty, O., who has
made au experiment with hogs, with a view to
ascertaiu how far coid retards the rate of fatten
ing, reports the following results: Carefully
weighing the hogs fed, and the corn fed to them,
and estimating port at four cents per pound,
he found that what he fed ont duiing the first
week iu October, returned (in potk) 80 cents
per bushel ; the first week in November, CO
cents ; the third week, 40 ; the forth week in
November and the month of December, 25 ; the
fiisthairof January, 5; the last half. 0. In
the October week of the experiment the weather
was pleasaut and warm. It gradually grew
colder till the lalter part of November, from
which time it remained about stationary till the
first of January, after which it rundown to zero,
and below in the latter part of the month. Tho
hogs, were well sheltered iu a good pen with
plank floor. .lrieulfwral Report.
The Oregon Granger says there are eight or
tea flacks of Angora goats in Dongoia and
Jacksou counties, Oregon, of from fifty to tvro
hundred each ; that they arc healthful and do
well, aud that there has been a good demand for
the fleeces this year at from 7oc. to $1.25 per
pound, the fleece of three quarter bred goats
being from oue to one and a-half pounds each ;
of full bloods from four to seven poands.
Tub Ohio Farmer says, "Corn-fed hens do not
lay in winter for the simple reason there isn't
any albumen material in the corn. When
wheat is fed, there is fat enough in it to Bupply
ull that is ueeded for the yolk, aud gluten
euough to make the white, und lime enough to
I'uruisli the shell ; it does not thus Seem difficult
to understand why corn-fed hens Bhould not lay,
as they do not, ut.d why wheat-fed hens should
lay as they do.
A faumer in Ontario couuty, New York,
sowed oats broad cast, in the usual amount, aud
then drilled in corn, usirg three bushels of corn
to oue of oats When the oats were ripe the
whole crop was cut like grass, aud the tlry out
straw, absorbing the moisture of the stalks, ren
dered the whole easily cured. Another cure his
fodder by placing it in the mow between alter
nate layers ot dry straw, aud his horses aud
cattle devour the straw with the same relish is

Amoso the uselul plants in New Mexico is the
soap-weed, the roots of which are used as soap.
The -Mexicans prefer it to soap' for washiu
woolen goods. It extracts all dirt and grease
and restores the lusjre of the goods.
Over 100,000 acres of land have been located
in Mason county, Texas, within the pust three
mouths on account of the discovery of a great
silver vein. Two shafts are already. iu opera
lion, one bringing up ore yielding $H4otbeton.
It is satisfactory to learn that many of the
New England farmers are beginning again to
grow their own corn instead of buying western
corn. It is found bv those who have fairly ex
perimented that it pays better to grow it th in to
bny it.
To Boil a Ham. A correspondent of the Ger
manlowu Telegraph says : 'The bam' ought to
be a year old. It should be soaked one night in
cold water. It must then be put in a large pot
of cold water and simmered for half an hour.
Then pour out the water and put In fresh cold
water, and let it simmer (not boil) for twenty
five minutes for every pound in weight. Take
it out. Remove the skin, grate bread crumbs
over it, aud set it in the oven for half an hour,
and serve hot. The size of a bam for boiling
should range Iroru eight to twelve pounds. In
carving a bam there is about as much art as
cookiug it. Let it be chipped just as you wouIJ
dried beef, the slices being as thiu as a shaving.
This is doue by drawiug the carving knife back
ward quickly. When boiled and carred as 1
ought to be, there is no human provender tuor
appetizing and very little equally so.
Treasury Lefartmest Whitewa9u. Th
receipt for whitewashing sent out by the lighl
bouse board of the Treasury Department has bee
found by experience to answer ou wood, brie
und stone nearly as well as oil paiut, and is muc
cheaper. Slack a half bushel of unslacked I'm
with boiling water, keeping itcoyered durii
the process. Strain it, aud adir a peek of sa
dissolved in warm water ; three pounds of urou
rice put iu boiling water and boiled to a It
paste ; half-pound powdered Spanish whiti
and a pound of clear glue, dissolved in wa
water ; mix these well together, and let the ni
ture stand for several days. Keep the ws
thus prepared in a kettle or portable furua
and when used put it on as hot as possible w
either painters' or whitewash brushes.
Cleaning Silverware, etc., with Potj
water. Silver and piated articles should
placed about ten minutes in the hot water
which potatoes have been boiled (with salt,)
then be rubbed with a woolen rate and riusei
pure water, when the articles will not out
free from tarnish, but perfectly bright. Pc
water that has become sour by standing se'
days answers still better, and is also exce
for cleaning articles of steel and giass w
bottles.
