VALUABLE RECIPES. The following hare been used in many fam iliea of this borough, for the purpose of col oring cotton goods, carpet rags, fc. ; and bare been found both cbeap and serviceable. The colors are bright and unfading : BLCE Dissolve 4or of coperas in two buckets of water ; boil the goods to be col ored, two hours, put 2 ozs, prussate of pot ash, dissolve in two buckets of water, boil the cloth in this, 15 minutes ; then lift out the yarn, muslin, or other articles, and pour in an ouncc'of vitriol ; stir it well, then throw in the material and let it soak a few minutes ; after which rinse thoroughly. YELLOW—Put 8 ozs. sugar of lead into 2 backets of watc ; 4 ozs of bicromate of pot ash in one bucket of water : heat as warm as jc ?an bear to handle the material in wring iog. Put into the lead solution first, then into the other, four times from one to the oth er alternately, wringing them each time. Dip the above in lime water to make a bright orange color. BLACK.—Put 1 oz. extract of logwood into 1 bucket of cold water ; stir it until hot; — put J oz. of blue vitriol into a bucket of cold water ; heat it. Put goods in the vitriol and heat five mioutes ; after which put them in to the logwood dye half an hour—stiring sev eral times. Rinse in cold water. Then dry in salt water scalding hot. Rinse in cold wa ter. HORSES THAT OVWUTEACH. —We commend the following to horse-sboers generally. Ic is from the Prairie Farmer . (Chicago,) and is worthy the attention of every blacksmith who attempts to shoe horses. The reason given for the method of shoeing recommend ed to prevent horses from overreaching, we consider to be scientifically correct. But we ahall allow Mr. Kimble to be heard in his own words. He says : h I believe there are bat few blacksmiths that know how to shoe harass that overreach, and some that do not ae£m w illing[to learn. Others think again that there is no better remedy than making the shoea shorter, and plaetog the forward one on the toe, and the hinder one on the heel of the horse. They need to understand that there ia a better way, and bone owners ahaold make note of it. A Western corre spondent give* the following rule, which I think is a very good one : 'Make the for ward aboe long, and the toe-calka short and standing a little under, and set them as far back as convenient, in order to let the feet roll over as soon as possible, to get oat of the way. And in settiug the shoes on the hind feet, reverse tbe order, to keep tbem back to giy time for tbe forward feet to get out of the way. Make the toe-calks high, and the half calks low, to keep the feet back, then be will travel like other horses. This may be remedied in part in tbe mode of paring the boof. This is essential in all cases, and where too many horses have been cripples.— Great pains should be taken at all times in shoeing burses, and I believe not too many of 6trr blacksmiths fully understand making the shoe and paring the hoof.' " How TO JCDGE THE CHARACTER OF A HORSE BT OUTWARD APPEARA.VCES.— CharIes L. Thayer writes to the Country Gentle man : "I offer the following suggestions, the re tail of close observations and long experi ence. If the color be light sorrel or chestnut, his feet, legs and face white—these are marks of kindness. If ho is broad and full between tbe eyes, he may be depended on as s horse of good sense, and capable of being trained to anything ; as respects such horses, the more kindly you treat them the better you will be treated iu return. Nor will a horse of this description stand a whip if well fed. If you want a safe horse,avoid one that's dish-fsced. He may be so far gentle as not to scare, but he wtll have too much go-ahead in bis to be aafe with everybody. If you want a fool,but a horse of great bottom, pet a deep bay with not a white hair about him. If bis face is a Httle dished, so much the worse. Let no - man ride such a horse that is not an expert rider ; they are always tricky and unsafe.— If you want one that will never give out,nev er.boy an over-grown one. A black horse cannot stand heat, nor a white one, cold. It you want a gentle horse, get one with more or less white about the head, the more the better. Selections thus made are of great docility and gentleness." SHELTERING COWS —As the season of cold storms is upon us, it is especially important to provide shelter for stock—particulaily that pertaining to the dairy department—some farmers are culpably remiss with reference to their milch cows. They will not thrive and be productive if left to shelter tf fence corners during the prevalence of storms ol rain and sleet, where they become so chilled as to assnme a crescent shape, and tremb'c and shiver as if under the influence of an ague fit. Thus situated milch cows cannot prove ' productive, nor render that return to the for mer which they would do if suitably cared for during the inclement weather of tbe wir ter and spring. As a question of humanity, ' as well as interest, farmers should see to it that rheir stock is not allowed to suffer for want ol attention in this respect. All lands on wh'ch clover or the j gjasses are grown, must either have limo in them naturally, or that mineral must be artificially snppfied—it matters but little whether it be supplied in the torm of stone lime, oyster lime or marl. With ordinary eultivation ; and land of , only moderate fertility, six hundred bushels | of earrots may be grown on the acre. For feeding borses and cows, a bushel of carrots ! is worth as much as a bushel of osls, when ! fed in connex ion with a libt-ial amount of meal- glisrfllaitn)us. LACK A WESTERN* B.
