Healtbfcl.ness op Apples. There is
scarcely an article of vegetable food more
widely useful and more generally liked tban
the apple. Why every farmer has not an
apple orchard, where the tree will grow at
all, is one of the mysteries. L?t every
housekeeper lay in a good supply of apples,
and it will be the most economical invest
ment in the whole range of culinarics. A
raw, mellow apple is digested in an hour
and a half , while boiled cabbage reitiire-t
five hours. The moat healthful dessert
that can be placed on the table is a baked
apple. If eaten frequently at breakfast,
with coarse bread and butter, it has an ad
mirable effect on the general system, often
removing constipation, correcting acidities,
and cooling off febrile conditions more effec
tual'y thaa the most approved medicines.
If families could be induced to Fubstitute
apples sound and ripe f r pies, cakes and
sweetmeats, with which their chill ren are
too frequently stuffed, there would be a
diminuition of the sum total of doctor's
bills, in a single year, sufTn.-ient to lay in a
stock of this delicious fruit for the whole
season's use. Christian Advocate.
How to Fit Collars to Horses
Shoulders, The collar should be pur
chased of the proper size. They are usually
too large. If obtained of the proper size,
ju.st before putting it on, the first time, im
merse it in water, letting it remain about
a minute, and immediately put it on the
horse, beini; careful to have tha hatnes so
adjusted at the top and bottom as to fit the
shoulder, an 1 then put the hirse to wnrk.
The collar by being wet, will adapt itwlf to
the shoulder, and should dry on the horse.
When taken off, it should be left in the
same shape it occupied on the horse, and ov
er after, you will have a snug Siting collar
and no wounds. Valley Farm er.
Corn Starch Cake. One cut. butter,
two of sugar,two of flour,one of cornstarch,
one o' sweet milk, white of seven e?s;s. one
teaspoonful of soda, two of cream ttutar.
Mix the butter and sugar well together. put
the soda in the milk, the cream tartar in
the corn starch, add them to the butter and
supar, then put in the flour and ecrgs, stir
ten minutes, and bake in a moderate oven.
Steami.no Food for Cattle. Nothing
but steam is wanted to eook hay.or any oth
er kind of food. Steam under pressure is
much hotter than wafer, and, of course,
will cook more rapidly. The difficulty may
be in not having your bos, or steaming vat
tight enough. There is no particular dan
ger of steaming hay too much. The softer
it is made the easier it is digested.
