WOMEN AS FARMERS.
Lizze Leavenworth writes to the
Revolution, from Vineland, N. J., as
follows :
In Vineland, New Jersey, a place
of ten thousand inhabitants, thirty
five miles south of Philadelphia, wo
men are demostrating what they
can do at farming. These women
are not course or illiterate, but some
of them have been well educated
and possess well-cultivated minds. I
do not know how many there are
here who own farms, which they
have brought into cultivation solely
by their own einrts, but I will speak
of a few that have come under my
immediate notice. The first one
who gave me an account of her
work is a maiden lady of about for
ty. She had been a school teacher
in Massachusetts for sixten years ;
she got weary, as she said, of being
the slave for others, and thinking a
farmer's life more to her heart, came
to Vineland • and bought ten acres.
She has been here three years, and
has five acres in good bearing condi
tion ; all the work except the clear
ing of the land has been done by
herself and a boy thirteen years old ;
and from being weak in some direc
tioni she has• become strong and
healthy. I next saw another maid
en lady of the same age. She was
educated as a physician, but her
health giving away, she came here
and bought ten acres•; and with the
assistance of only a boy she has five
acres under cultivation, and she says
she never had so good health in her
I have been in this place but a
few weeks and have made no effort to
find out how many such cases there
are here, but I am told there are ma.
ny, and that it is well demonstrated
in this place that women excels as a
farmer. I have met more than a
dozen women, who are widows and
take all care of large gardens, and
they are the finest I have seen, a
bounding in the most delicious
fruits and beautiful flowers. One
lady, who does all the work in her
garden, and who, I had noticed, had
been engaged a • few days past in
painting her house, I was a little sur
prised on hearing the next week that
she had on the Sabbath previous fil
led with good acceptence the pulpit
of the Unitarian Church, in'the ab
sence of the minister. Indeed all the
women I know in this place are wo
men of splendid minds ; and oh,
how glad they are to know that
there is one spot on the earth where
they can follow out their natural fee
lings without being insulted on eve
ry side by conservatism and igno
_ranee. Here, too, they . can dress
with garments befitting their taste
and work.. These women wear both
the long and the short ; the short
for the garden and kitchen, and the
long for the parlor, thus combining
use and taste in ress, rather than
• following fashion and custom. And
so, too, in regard to diet; having
plenty of vegetables and fruits, they
mte these their chief articles of liv
ing, and are not constantly inducing
disease, as are people of the cities by
eating so much animal food.-
LIZZIE LEAVENWORTH.
HANGING BACK,
Horses will be very commonly
found to what is termed "hang back
in their stalls," the moment the door
is shut and they find themselves
alone ; some will even do this when
persons are present, This is a habit
that always excites the greatest ire
on the part of the groom ; the broom
handle or fork usually corrects this
attempt, accompanitd by swearing
at the horse, and sundry condemna
tions of always his eyes, and frequent
ly his limbs also. We have seen
men insane enough to listen at the
door, or watch at a window till they
found the horse had committed this
heinous sin, then rush into the sta
ble, and chastise him as unmerciful
ly as undeservedly. We might with
as much justice punish a man be
cause he moved his person to get
ease, when we had placed him in a
situation that rendered his position
painful ; but if any man has found
that he could teach the generality of
grooms to think before they act, he
has been more fbrtunate than we
have in this particular.
The whole secret of a horse hang
ing back is, that where the stall, is
much on the decline from the man
ger to the stall hind post, standing
on an inclined plane causes his loins
and hind parts to ache intolerably ;
he hangs back in order, if possible,
to get his hind legs beyond the ant
ter, thus diminishing, by many de
grees his standing up hill. In good
and well laid stables, horses are not
found to acquire this habit; so the
cause of it speaks for itself; and ought
to be remedied. The stall floor
should be perfectly flat from the
manger till it comes within a foot of
the grating ; it should then have a
fall to it of half an inch. By this,
the four feet of the horse stand on
quite level ground. It should slope
in the same degree a foot each side
of the graet and also a foot behind
it. This is sure to make the wet
made by the horse run into the
drain ; and his hind, as well at his
fore legs, stands level.—Prarie Farm-

COWS.
Cows.—That hold up milk, Mr.
Johnson says can be cured if they
will drink sour milk. After drink
ing and soon as they begin to lick
the pail, they will give down ' freely
He has tried it with cows that would
give about two-thirds the proper
quantiy, retaining the other portion.
Then he gives them the milk to
drink, and waits unt'l they begin to
lick the pail, when he has no trouble
in getting the remainder. He has
tried meal, salt and various things,
but found nothing to produce such
an effect as sour milk.

GOOD MANAGEMENT NECES
SARY.
Experience is assumed to be the
only sure and trustworthy guide in
testing the merits or qualities of the
different breeds of fowls ; and al
though there must, of necessity, be
somewhat diverse results with the
same kinds of fowls, because of the
difierent management and care be
stowed, yet the weight of the gerieral
and intelligent testimony assi , es a
proper verdict in
. the end. There
can be no assured and unfailing suc
cess in poultry growing, without
careful attention to the whole roilne
of duties demanded in the hennery.
The generally accepted axiom, that
"eternal vigilance is the price of lib
erty," carries an impressive lesson to
the poultry breeder, whose experi
.euce will ultimately demonstrate, in
that specialty, that constant watch
fulness is the price of success. Some
men seem to imagine that to secure .
a good breed of fowls will guarantee
their success, irrespective of any
agency on their part to keep them
good by proper feeding, breeding,
etc. Never was there a greater de
lusion. No inherent excellence in
the entirs scale of animated nature
can bear up under the pressure of
ignorance and neglect. Adam's
great transgression has written the
fearful word decay in such impres
sive characters upon all animated
life, that we can only hope to bribe
its swift consumation by paying the
tribute of exacted toil and sweat.
We can hardly win success without
deserving it, and we shall not cer
tainly. deserve it, and ought not to
expect it, without the employment
of rational and well-directed efforts.—
IV. in Horticulturalist.
BUARYING PLANTS IN WIN
a;
A writer in the Feorist and Pomo
logist gives an account of his expri
ence in wintering geraniums by hur
rying them in a trench underground
below the reach of frost. The result
was quite successful, only two out of
fifty having decayed when dug out
the last of April. The trence should
be made in a location where no wa
ter can remain at a depth of two feet
below the level—that being the
depth at which the trench ought to
be dug—the plants laid iu by the
heel in a row then covered with
light straw, set so as to carry off 'he
water, and then covered with earth,
according to the climate, to a depth
sufficient to keep out frost ; finish
ing off in a ridge or roof shape to
carry of water. Covering the plants
over the straw first with boards set
in a ridge form and then heapingon
earth, we think would render pres
ure less liable, and tend to keep a
more open circulation in the trench,
and thus leasen the liability to damp
of decay ; but with a little care in
this way, we See no reason why any
half hardy plant may not easily be
kept over winter in this manner.
I HO W TO PRESERVE FRUIT
TREES PROM THE MICE.
Thousands of young trees are de
stroyed annually by those little pest
iferous scamps. They seldom fail to
give their compliments, and in such
a manner, too, as to nettle my tem
per just a little. I have wrapt my
trees with paper and twine, ploughed
the ground late in autumn, and clean
ed the grass carefully away from
around the trees yet, those little
thieves steal into my orchard and
aarden, and very coolly girdle my
choicest trees. I put my wits to
work to devises some tire remedy
that would be cheap and quickly
done. Take equal parts of pine tar
and fish oil, mix together thorougly
by warming, then take a brush 4and
put on the trees close to the ground
and twelve or fifteen inches up around
the body. It will not injure the
trees, and there will be no more
trouble about mice. I tried the ex
periment on fifty trees last winter,
and it worked like a charm. My
trees never were more thrifty than
during the present season.—Dr.
-Nichols, in Journal of Chemiscry.
A PLACE FOR EVERYTHING
AND EVERYTHING IN ITS
PLACE."
Numerous accidents happen were
utensils are allowed to stand in the
stable. Horses coming in and out
are almost sure to strike against
them. This frightens them ; they
run back, hit something else, or run
against other horses and get kicked.
Should such a thing occur as a horse
getting loose in the night (no very
improbable circumstane, by-the-by,
in a badly-conducted stable), proba
bly if he walked quietly about, or
even into another horse's stall, if us
ed to each other, no harm might
happen ; but if in the dark he gets
kicking the buckets about the stable
he get frightened ; frightens the
other horses, and they all get kick
ing and snorting together; and then
it is two thousand five hundred and
thirty-eights to one that some mis
chief ensues. Therefore, keep shov
el, pitchfork, broom and bucket in a
proper place.—Praric Farmer.

HOME - MADE MATs.--A lady coy
respondant of the Vermont Farmer,
gives tho following directions for ma
king mats from the smallest bits of
cloth left after cutting out clothes,
or preparing the materials for rag
carpets:—"Pieces over au inch
square are two large, so it can easily
be keen that this way of making rugs
will use up the pieces othorwise of
no account axcept fo.t the rag-bag.
Those little bits must be strung on
a cord, the edges being raveled out
so as to present a soft, furry ab
pearance, and wound and sewed
like the braids in a braided mat;
it will be difficult to distinguish it
from chenile work. In regard to
colors, you must consult your own
taste. The style called "hit or
miss," in which you use all colors
indiscaiminately, as they are most
convenient, has often a good effect
if blenty of bright colors are used;
in anyother case it is too apt to
have a dingy look. Decided con
trasts o r , shades of the same color
are better in mats of this description•
1111:=22
ATTEND TO HUSKING Cora.--There
is almost always a few weeks in au
tumn of delightful weather, and. the
prudent farmer will push his whole
force to the Work of cribbing up
his corn. ThoSe who delay are sure
to suffer from cold fingers, and, be
side have their grain and fodder in
jured to some extent. Bind the
stalks in bundles with strong bands
after removing the grain, and put
them up in a.secare manner. Then,
when the cold storms come, you can
whistle at the winds.

§.12,1L
APPLE SNO w B A us.—This elegant
and wholesome dessert may be made
as follows :—Pare and core several
large apples, filling the holes with
orange or quince marmalade, or
with lumps of sugar flavored with a
teaspoonful of lemon juice. Boil the
apples in -hot paste, (potato paste
made without shortening isthe best)
and make the crust of an equal thick
ness. Bake them in tins in a mod
erate oven ; and ice them with a su
gar frosting one-quarter of an inch
thick ; harden them at a distance
from the fire, that they may not be
browned.
• .05e.... -
LEMON Drors-3lay be made by
stirring the essence or extract of lem
on into refined sugar in a clean pan.
Having filled a pan, with a lip, two
thirds full with paste, stir it over the
fire with a bone or ivory handle
until liquid. Then take it off, and
continue to stir it ; thickening it, if
it runs two freely, by means of pow
dered sugar. Take off the drops
from the lip by a wire, and let them
nil on a bright tin plate. Remove
them two hours afterwards with a
knife. A drop or two of nitric acid
disolved in a little water, intent.ities
the acidity of the paste when being
prepared. •
I=
APPLE Show.—Put twelve good
tart apples in cold water, and set
them over the fire ; when soft, drain,
the water, strip the s kips off the ap
ples, core them, and lay them in a
deep dish. Beat the whites of
twelve eggs to a stiff froth ; put half
a pound of finely-powered white su
gar to the apples ; beat them to a
stiff froth, and add the.beaten eggs
Beat the whole to a stiff snow ; the!
turn it into a dessert-dish, and orna
ment with myrtle or box.
FEEDING V: GEI'AMES TO Cows.—
A. Hamburg, N. r., farmer, Who has
had large experience in feeding cab
bage and turnips to cows, says his
practice is to feed immediately af
ter milking—never before—and he
has never becu troubled with the
milk being flavored. lie also says
he feed turnips whole, with the tops
on, as there is no 4langer of choking
when fed in this way.

A HoancuLTUVIL ; vr—A whole
hedge has been suceessridly moved
in Manchester, Nev,- Hamps'.ire, by
the followi9g proee, s : The soil: w. s
cat down on each side. and shoveled
away on both ; a stout plank was
placed on one side, and jack-screws
applied to move coals and soils. to
gether intact
To CLEAN GOLD CHAINS IN Two
MINUTE.—Put the chain into a small
glass bottle, with warm water or can
de-Cologne, a little camphorated
chalk ; scrape in some soap. Cork
the bottle; and shake it :rm. a minute
violently. The friction against the
glass polishes the gold.
I==l2l
NICE JOIINNY Cure.—One pint
each of buttermilk and sour milk, one
teacup of cream, one of molasses,_
half skimmer of wheat flour, one
rounding tea-spoon of soda, some
salt. Stir up thin and bake slowly.
If made too thick at first the meal
will swell while baking and make it
dry.
71=2
To clean cider barrels, the Scien
tific American says, put lime water
and a eon - non trace chain into the
barrel throagh the bung hole, first
tying a strong twine to the chain to
draw it out with. Shake the barrel
about until the chains wears off the
mould or pomace, then rinse well
with water.
DC=
A DETICiOUS DISII OF APPLES.-
Take two pounds of apples, pare
and core them, slice them into a pan;
add one pound loaf-sugar, the juice
of three lemons, and the grated rind
of one. Let these boil about tw'o
hours. Turn into a mould, and
serve it with thick custard or cream.
JELLY CAKE—HaIf cup butter,
half cup cream, half cup buttermilk,
half cup sweet milk, one and a half
cups sugar ; halt teaspoon soda.
Bake thin, and this quantity makes
five stories, Spread the jelly on
while the cake is warm.
1::=
WORKING BU TER.—In Working.
butle.. whether in salting or work
-
ing ont the buttermilk, the butter
should be sgeezed with the ladle and
not moulded as some do. It breaks
the grain of the butter and makes it
salvy.
=I
APPLE-PUDDING.—Pare and stew
three pints of apple ; mash thew,
and acid four eggs, a quarter of a
pound of butter, sugar and nutmeg,
or grated lemon. Bake it on shurt
crust. •
An orchard in Massachusetts has
been used as a hog pasture for twct;-
ty years, and has never fitiled to pro
duce a fine crop of fruit. A worn,-
eaten apple is a rarity in that or
chard.
It is said that the best strawber
ry plants come from the third and
fourth set of runners, and that the
first and second sets should be cut
off.
=I
CORN DRYING.—Soine of the grain
houses in Western towns have a
drying attachment in operation night
and day preparing corn thrsh;pment.
Thus prepared, there, is no danger
from heating in bulk when on its
way to the Atlantic markets.

have determined what to do first.

The No. 2or rotary feed machine, is un
equaled fur manufacturing, or heavy family
sewing, passing over uneven surfaces wit Lout
change of speed or stitch and operating on any
material from scudding to lead.
• The No. 1 or Drop Feed Machine is particu

Both machines has a straight snort needle,

selfadjusting tension, lied will stitch, hem,
fell, bind, curd, braid, rufee. tuck, quilt and
gather and sew on at the same time. Perform
