TEETH OF A HORSE. At five year* of age the burse has forty teeth—twenty-four molar or jaw teeth,twelve incisor or front teeth, between the molars and the tho incisors, but usually wanting in the mare. At birth, only tho two nippers or middle Incisors appear. At one year old the incisors are all visible on the milk set. Before three years, the permanent nippers hare come through. At four year 6 old, the permanent dividers next to the nippers are out. At five the mouth is perfect, the second set of teeth having been completed. At six the hollows under the nippers called the mark, has disappeared from tkc nippers, and diminished in the dividers. At seven the mark has disappeared from the divider, and the next teeth, or corners, are leveled, though showing the mart, At eight the maik has gone from the cor ners, and the horse is said to be aged. After this time, indeed, good authorities 6ay after five years the age of a horse can on ly be conjectured. But the teeth gradually change their form, the incisors becoming round, oval, and then triangular. Dealers sometimes bishop the teeth of old horses,that is, scoop them out to imitato the mark, but this can be known by the absence of the white edge of enamel which always surrounds the real mark, by the shape of the teeth, and other marks of ago about the animal.— Rural Gentleman. To WASH LAWK AND MTSMN.— Delicate lawn and mnslin dresses are so frequently spoiled by bad washing, the colors of the fabrics yielding so readily! to the action of soap, that it is better to adopt a method of cleaning the finest materials, and imparting to them the appearance of newness. Take two quarts of wheat bran, and boil it for haif an hour in soft water. Let it cool, then strain it, and pour the strained liquor into the wa ter in which the dress is to be washed. Use no soap. One rinsing alone is required, and no starch, The bran water not only removes the dirt and insures against change of color, but gives the fabric a pleasanter stiffness thau RD y preparation of starch. If the folds are drawn from the skirts and sleeves the dress will iron better ; and will appear, when pre pared in this way, as fresh as new. How TO PRESERVE A BOQIET.— When you receive a boquet, sprinkle it lightly with frash water ; then put in a vessel containing 6oap suds ; this will nutrify the stem snd keep the flowers as bright as new. Take the boquet out of the water every morning and lay it Bideways (the stock entering firat) into clean water, keep it there a mtßute or two, then take it out aud sprinkle the flowers lightly by the hand with water ; replace it iu the soap auds and it will bloom as fresh as when gathered. The soap suds need changing every three or four days. By ob serving these rules a boquet' may be kept bright and beautiful for at least amontb, and will last still longer in a very passable state; but attention to the fair creatures, as direct ed above, must be observed, or all will per ish. CHICKEN STEWED WITH NEW CORN— Cut op the chicken as for pies, season them well, have green corn cut off the cob, put a layer of chicketi in the liottou of a stewpau and a lay er of corn, and so till you fill all in ; sprinkle in salt, peper and parsley, and put a piece of butter in ; cover it with water aDd put on a crust with slits cut in it ; let it boil an hour; when done, lay the crust in a deep dish. Dip out the chicken aud corn and pnt it on the crust, stir in the gravy, a thickening of milk and flour ; when this boils up, pour it in with the corn and chicken. Chicken and corn boiled together in a pot make a very nice soup with dumplings. FIRE PROOF WASH FOR SHINGLES—A wash composed of lime, salt, nnd fine sand or wood ashes, put on in the ordinary way of white-washing,renders the roof fifty per cent tnore secure against taking firo from falling cinders, in case of a fire in the vicinity. It pays the expense a hundred fold in its pre serving influence against the effect of the weather. The older and more weather-bcat en the shingles, the more benefit deiived. When wc want to destroy perennial weeds, one of the most effectual methods we can adopt for doiog so, is cutting the leaves aDd stems close to the ground, and keeping them down by the frequent use of the 6cythe or hoe; yet wc expect grass to be an exception to all other plants, fnr we fee) disappointed when a meadow which has been mowed in the heat of summer and grazed clo-ely in the fall, does not yield a full crop the ensuing year. MILK BISCUIT.— Take six large while po tatoes, boil them and mash them through a cullender, with a quart of hot milk. Stir in enough flour to make a stiff sponge, add a teaspoonfa! of salt, the same of sugar, and a teacup of yeast. Set it to rise three or four hours, when light take a jdb of butter, rub bed in flour' and throw on the sponge with sufficient flour to make a soft dough. Cut nut when light and let them stand half an hour before baking. Bake twenty minutes. SEASONABLE SUGGESTIONS.— The following hints are seasonable, and may be true ; they are at least worth trying —Oil of pennyroy al will keep musqnitoes out of a room, if scat tored about in even quantities. Roaches are exterminated by scattering a hendful of fresh cucumber parings about tbei house. No fly will light on the window which has been washed with water ia which a little garlic has b0 boiled. ~ fUtoaftg, &t, JJKL LACK A WESTERN R R. Summer Arrangement—l F*6T.
