The Farmer's Department.
PAlNTl.va. Every farmer may be his
own painter. Many inexperienced per
sons, and indeed professional painters
think that paint mixed in the s&me wav
aa for ontaido work, will answer for the
ioside of a house ; but experience dem
enstrates in the most conclusive manner,
to the reasonable and observing mind,
that, necessarily, euch cannot be the act.
Simple whitelead and linseed oil, mixed
in ths earns manner as for outside work,
will, it is true, harden, and act as a pow
erful and highly economical pieservative
of wood to which it is applied ; but in a
few weeks the paint will become discolored
and of a dusky yellow hue in consequence
of the absorption of carbon which is eup-
dicd by the smoke from the chimney,
amps, and other sources. Why the same
result is not remarkable on the outside is
to be found in the fact thai the paint is
not exposed to the 6ame influences ; but,
on the contrary, is constantly bleached by
the impinging rays of the sun, which op
erate precisely as they do upon cotton
and liuen fabrics when similarly exposed.
"When a coating, id required for inside
work, very little oil should be used, ex
cept that contained in the lead. Spirits
of turpentine should be the principal
fluid introduced to thin paint, Japan, in
f wall quantities, being added to accele
rate the drying process. The priming,
or first coat, however, should in all cases
be mixed with oil alone, and when hard,
smoothed by rubbing down with sand pa
per. After this, two coats should co put
on with turpentine alone, no oil being
used, the final one being somewhat tho
the thickest. If a good gloss if desira
ble, a small quantity of varnish may be ad
ded. To seoure a nice white finish for a
euit of rooms, after putting on the paint
very carefully, gum demar varnish should
be applied. This makes a most splendid
and durable gloss, and preserves unsullied
the pure white of the most delicate paint.
Should the paint become sullied, tho
etains may be easily removed from the
surface, simply by washing it with warm
water; no soap should bo introduced iuto
the fluid, as its action destroys the gloss
of the coating, and is injurious to the
faint. This varnish, introduced into the
ast coat, gives a most superb finish ;
but most painters prefer applying it after
the work is finished and partially dry.
In painting kitchens and other apart
ments in common use, the best article i3
pure whitelead, although some persons
prefer to add a little lamp-black or chrome
yellow; but owing to the perpetual prea
enceof carbonaceous substances it fioon be
comes sullied, and presents a dirty and
unpleasant appearance. Graining in im
itation of maple, birch or some other light
wood, is probably tho best coating that
can be given to the wood-work of a kitch
en. When well done, this kind of paint
ing has a remarkably Deat aod even ele
gant appearance ; it is easily cleansed,
and when partially defaced by age, may
be renovated and restored almost to its
original brilliancy by a coat of varnish.
The art of painting is one that may be
acquired by any person of ordinary in
genuity. G ermantouni Telegraph.

Rules fob Cow Management.
Cows should run dry six weeks before
calving; if milked closely toward calving,
the calves will be poorer.
A cow newly come in should not drink
cold water in co'.d weather, but moderate
ly warm slop. Calves, intended for rais
ing, should betaken from the cow within
m few days, and they will be less liable to
suck when they are old. Feed them first
en new milk for awhile, then skim milk,
taking care that all the changes are grad
ual, by adding only a portion at first.
Hearty eaters are desirable for cows,
and may usually be selected while calvea.
A dainty calf will be a dai-oty cow.
Heifers dried up too early after calving,
will always run dry about the same time
in after years therefore be careful to
milk closely the first year, until about
eix weeks before calvicg.
Spring cows should come in while they
re yet fed on hay, and before they are
turned to grass, which will be more likely
to prevent oaked bag and milk faver.
Exchange.
Work fob a Wbt Day A practical
farmer jots down the following ia appro
priate :
Barnyard to shovel up and aanure to
haul to next fall's wheat ground.
Barn doors, yard gates, etc., to mend.
Drains and waste-water outlets to be
attended to.
Mowing machines to be put i czdar ;
a'.so, horse-rake and hay tender.
Grease wagons, mend harness indbcgs,
wash carriages.
Cut and haul wood and lean oct cellcr,
whitewash, etc.
Hen-house to clean out, od compost
for corn to make.
m m
Tomatoes roa Winter Use. After
skinning perfectly ripe tomatoes, cut out
any green around the base. I think lsav
ing in this hard green core is the imme
diate cause of the los of the fruit.
Place them in a bell metal kettle over the
fire; season with salt as if for immediate
use; then only allow them to come to a
boil; while hot put ia stone candor small
mouthed gillcn jars, cork and seal, if
proper judgment be exercized you will
never lusa one jar.
OacnARDS. To promote healthy sod
vigorous growth in orchards, so as to iur-
niah the best fruit , never mw any kind
of grain or plant corn in them, because it
is ruinous to the trees. Vlant potatoes or
some other root crops cm3r.g your trees,
and you will be agreeably surprised at the
growth compared with those among which
grain crops are sown.
