IGRIfTLTTBiL. Confidence is Animals. There are probably, few persona familiar with farm life who have not observed a marked contrast between the .general character and appearance of the domes tic animal kept on different farms within the circle of their acquaintance. On approaching some farm houses, the first salutation comes from a noisy, growling dog, who seems to take you for a trespasser. The next, from his master who divides his energies be tween welcoming yon and scolding the dog for not behaving better. You visit the barn, and as yon open the door, a frightened cat scuds across the floor, and with one look back at you from her great eyes, disappears through the hole in the floor, or out at a broken window. The horses lav back their ears, squeal and kick the sides of their stalls, as much as to say. "We feel cross and can't help acting it out" The oxen and cows start back as yon pass them as if afraid they would be hit with a fork, and the vounn calves and pigs scamper to the farthest corners of their pens, and even the chickens seem to be bound von shall have all the room to yourself. We cannot begin too early to handle and pet the young animals we are rais ing. It is wonderful how soon they will acquire a feeling of confidence and learn to come to us for protection and care. Death is the Cellar. Many far mersare in the habit of pntting all kinds of vegetables in the cellar and then banking close, and presently all sorts of odors come up the cellar stairs, for there are onions, turnips, potatoes, apples, and pork; often butter and milk are kept there, and one imparts odor to the other, making a perverted mixture comparable to the victuals of a Dutch boarding-house, where every thing is sour but the vinegar. Vegeta bles that impart a strong odor should not be put in the cellar at all, or at least only in small quantities. No more than a bushel of turnips should ever be put in a cellar, but some put in the crop of an acre of rtita bagas, which soon begin to sweat, when they taint the whole house. The true way is have an out-door cellar for vegetables, es pecially south of Pennsylvania. A cel lar under a barn is nscf ul, and there all the odorous vegetables should be stored permitting the cellar under the house to be kept as sweet and clean as any of the rooms above. Medical men are well aware that cellars originate fevers, and some here have given the name "cellar-fever" to the disease that origi nates from foul cellars. FrMTKiss fob AIilch Cows. Pump kins will rot sooner in cellars than above ground unless the cellar is very dry and cooL If kept dry and just above the freezing point they may, by careful sorting, be kept sound till mid winter, and as long as they last are good for milch cows, making rich and tine flavored milk and beautiful yellow butter. They maae belter milk than beets or turnips, but have less fatten ing properties than beets, mangolds, tnrnips, carrots or parsnips. They con tain more water and less organic matter than any of the roots above named, and hence a greater weight must be taken to produce equal results. They are easily raised aud are valuable in their season for the sake of variety in feed but they cannot be relied on as a profi table sultstitute for roots, first because they are too perishable and short lived to last till late Winter and Spring, when ! green and succulent food is most needed and second, by reason ot a smaller acu more uncertain yield. An acre of good ground will easily produce 40 tons of beets or mangolds, while half that amount would be a good yield for the same land in pumpkins. j A Timelt SrooEsnox. A corrcppon- dent writes: How to keep water in j the barn-vard from freezing in the ! trongh is a problem which I wish some one would solve. It is quite a trouble to have to cut out two or three irches of ice every morning, in cold weather, licsides wasting a great deal of water. I have been experimenting a little, and have found a way to somewhat modify the evil. When" I go to the barn at nine o'clock in the evening there is i generally quite a crust of ice in the trough. Through this I break at one end of the trongh a small hole, and dip out three or fonr quart of water. This leaves an open space lxlwecn the ice and the top of the water, and the whole process of freezing has to lie repeated. In the morning there will be two coats of ice, both quite thin, and it is not half the work to get them ont that it is to cut out what will be produced if it is left undisturbed. It may be worth while for other farmers to try this method. It cocts but little to do it, and with me it saves a good deal of work. Strangles is Colts. "This com plaint, known commonly as dihtem(er, is nothing serious. The swelling which appears at the junction of the jaws and throat will in time break of itself and disappear. The only treatment neces sary is to give the colt soft feed, with bran mashes and no medicine at all. The appetite, which falls off while the fever accompanying the disorder re mains, will return as soon as the ab scess has broken. If the enlargement increases to such an extent as to threaten partial suffocation, it may be opened with a lancet and discharged. No poultice should be applied to the swelling. Sometimes, when the ab scess refuses to break, or is slow in suppurating, it may be hastened by rubbing it with a little ointment, com posed of one part Spanish flies and six parts of lard. A Pbairtk farmer correspondent, who has had a good deal of experience in tethering cattle, says by far the best plan is to fasten by the hind foot I use a one-inch strap, passed twice round just above the ankle, and through a light iron ring. To the ring I fasten half-inch rope, and avoid all danger of tangling, which sometimes results in broken necks, when cows are fastened by the head. I should prefer to have five or six feet of trace chain close be hind the foot where the rope sustains the most wear. Cabbage Worm. After trying vari ous remedies, we have found boiling- hot water from a watering-pot, the sim plest, easiest cleanest and most ef fectual mode of destroying tne cabbage worm. If applied quickly and not too long on the leaves, it produces no in j ury. It ia easy repeated as occasion requires. As the days are approaching when water proof boots will be indispensible to pedestrians in our slushy streets, it may be well to state that the addition of glycerine to any of the oils used for treating boots not only assist s in ren dering them water-tight but also keeps the leather pliant and pre? erves it.

Dooorso, rapidly chasing, beating or lightening milk cows not only greatly reduces the quantity of milk, but care ful investigation has demonstrated that they seriously injurs the healthy qual ity of the fame. SCIENTIFIC, Carrots. In Belgium and other con tinental countries, the carrot has been grown as a field crop for a longer time, and to much greater extent, than in Britain. In the year 1765, the attention of the Society for the Encouragement of Arts, etc, was directed to .this branch of husbandry, and, in consequence, an account of the culture of carrots and the uses to which they may be applied was published by Robert Billing, a farmer in Norfolk, who states that he obtained, from twenty and a half acres, five hundred and ten loads of this root, which he found equal in nse and effect to a thousand loads of turnips, or three hundred loads of hay. Some of them measured two feet in length, and from twelve to fourteen inches round. Horses are remarkably fond of carrots, and when mixed with oats they form very good food for them. The efficacy of these roots in preserving and restoring the wind of horses had. it is said, Deen partially known in Suffolk, where car rots were administered as a secret specific for the complaint long previ ously to their being commonly appuea as food for that animal, fjarrots are equally beneficial as nourishment for cows, sheep aud swine. It was stated some years since that at Turlington, in Yorkshire, trie stock 01 a larm, consist ins of twenty workinar horses, four bullocks, and six milch cows, were fed from the end of September to the be ginning of May on the carrots produced from three acres of land. The animals, during the whole of that time, lived on these roots, with the addition ol only a very small quantity ol hay. Carrots contain a large amount of water, 8( parts in 100 Their most distinfmihbed dietetical substance is sugar, of which they possess nearly CI ner cent. Starch is also found in small nuantities. with a small portion of albumen. The ancients used the seed both of the wild and cultivated carrot as an internal medicine against the bite of serpents ; they also gave it to ani mals that bad been stung by mem.

Effect of Tfjifkratjue on Iron. t Much interest has been created by the theory advanced by Mr. Jirocklmnk, an English engineer, as to the effect of cold and frost on iron, his idea being that it causes the metal to become brittle, independently of any other cause. Mr. B. indnced several indi viduals to test iron for him at a time when the thermometer indicated below 32 degrees, and it is stated that iu one instance the experimenter got a dozen darning needles and a lot of garden nails made of cast iron, and it was found that the needh took a greater tensile strain at 12 decrees than they did at ,V, and the garden nails showed a similar result, leading, of course, to the conclusion that frost does not make either cast or wrought iron or steel brittle. In testing a No. 4 charcoal rod, it was found that, on the test piece being twisted slowly while surrounded with salt and snow, it stood 19 degrees while an adjacent six-inch, at 40 de grees, stood only 15 twists. The tests are regarded as proving that iron will bear a greater tensile strain the colder it is, but that its resistance to the force of impact is in ratio weaker ; this being due to the fact that the atoms of iron are brought closer together by the con tracting influence of extreme cold, the specific gravity is greater, and it as sumes more and more the texture of steel, which, as is well known, will not bear a heavy blow without breaking. CoNstMrrios as Affected bt Resi dence. Dr. Bowditch of Massachu setts, in a report to the Legislature of that State, discusses the relation of consumptive diseases to the matter of residence. The first point he urges is that the cellar should be always dry ; also that no possibility should exist of drinking water becoming contaminated by refuse ; and hence, for the latter, closely cemented stone, brick, or vitri fied tile drains should be used, while the supply for drinking should be brought to the house from some distant spring or pond. The dwelling, he says, is the best situated on an elevated knoll, open to the south and west winds, but somewhat shielded from the north and east There shonld be means of allowing sunlight to enter every room ; and, as regards temperature, about 70 deg. medium is the best the beat to be derived from open fireplaces connected with well constructed chim neys in every room. Casino fob Steam Tipes, &c. The following composition for casing steam pipes, Are, is recommended by a German association of engineers as equal in effect to that of ljeory, while it is cheaper. Mix well 120 parts by weight of finely ground limestone, 350 of finely ground stone-coal, '1M of finely ground clay, 300 of flue-dust (from the boiler flues), GOO of water, 10 of sulphuric acid of 50 Baume. and 15 of hair. The place to be covered, warmed if possible, is coated with this mass in layers from half an inch to 1 J or 2 inches thick, and when finished may be painted. A New 1'bocehs of Jsgbaving on Copper. Tne Hydrographic Office at Paris has begun a process of engraving on copper, which promises by its ra pidity and the moderation of its price to be very widely useful, it consists in substance, first, in covering a plate of copper with a thin shell of adhering silver, upon which is spread a thin layer of colored varnish ; second in drawing thereon, with a dry point, the lines, topography, and lettering, pre cisely as one engraves with a diamond npon stone; third, in corroding the traces by means of the perchloride of iron. " The Brooklyn Argus says that "there are thirty or forty different kinds of re ligion in this country, and it worries the celestial entry clerk immensely to have people tumbling into Heaven in such singularly assorted lots." BOIESTIC Taste is Dbess. Far from being of the opinion of Catharine of Aragon, "that dressing time is wasting time," the woman, we are apt to think, who has not some natural taste in dress, some love of novelty, some delight in the combination of colors, is deficient in sense of the beautiful. As a work of art well-dressed woman is study. That a love of dress is natural, and that it has some advantages, is so plain as to be scarcely worth recording. It does not follow that it shonld engross every other taste ; it is only the coquette's heart which, as Addison describes it is stuffed with "a flame-coloured nood. From the days of Anne Boleyn, who varied her dress every day, and who wore a small handkerchief over her round neck to conceal a mark thereon, and a falling sleeve to hide her doubly- tipped little finger, dress has had its Dlace in the heart of an English woman. And it is well that it should be so, for the dowdy, be she young or be she old, is sure to hear of it from her husband, if she has not already done so from brothers and fancy cousins. Indiffer ence, and consequent inattention to dress, often shows pedantry, self-righte ousness, or rnaoience ; ana wnust ex tolled bv the "unco nude" as a virtue. may be noted as a defect Every woman Bhould habitually make the best of her self. We dress our rooms with flowers and make our tables gorgeous with silver, class and china should our wives be less attractive than all around them ? Among the rich and great the love of dress promotes taste, and fosters ingenuity and industry. Hand Shaking. How did people get in the habit of shaking hands ? The answer is not far to seek. In early aud barbarous times, when every savage or semi-savage was his own law-giver, indge. soldier and policeman, and had to watch over his own safety, in default of other protection, two friends and ac quaintances, or two strangers desiring to be friends and acquaintances, when they chanced to meet, offered each to the other the right hand, the hand alike of defense and offense, the hand that wields the sword, the dagger, the club. the tomahawk, or other weapon of war. Each did this to show that the hand was empty, and neither war nor treachery was intended. A man cannot well stab another while he is in the act of shaking hands with him unless he is a double-dyed traitor and villian, and strives to aim a cowardly blow with the left while giving the right and pretend ing to be on good terms with his victim The custom of hand shaking prevail? more or less among ail civilized nas tions, and is the tacit avowal of friend ship and good will, just as a kiss is of a warmer passion. Ladies, as every one must have remarked, seldom or never shake hands with the cordiality of gen tlemen, unless it be with each other. The reason is obvious. They cannot be expected to show to persons of the other sex a warmth of greeting which might be misinterpreted, unless such persons are very closely related to them by family or affection, in which case hand shaking is not needed, and the lips do more agreeable duty. Scrap-Books. The best paste for scrap-books is made of flour. Apply it with a soft brush to the back of the paper to be pasted in and pat down the scrap with a soft cloth. Both sides of the leaf may be scrapped, and many successive pages filled at once, bnt care should be taken to remove ail paste from each page when it is completed, and the book should be left wide open to dry. A well-filled scrap-book is a very pleasant companion of a rainy day, especially if taste and discretion have been exercised in its arrangement. Stories shonld be in a part of the book bv themselves : the same may be said of poetry, and of wit If .all the news papers usually torn and burned for kindling were carefully scissored there might le in every family a book of wit and wisdom, of information, ana enter tainment second to none in the family library, always excepting the Bible. It is well to accumulate quite a store of scraps before beginning the book and employ some rainy day of leisure in ar ranging them properly and fastening them in place. Picture books for children, farsnperior, in point of variety and interest, to any in the slops, may be made by saving up pictures and pasting them into some volume not of intrinsic merit an old census book with good binding answers the purpose. At intervals through the book a half dozen leaves shonld be cut off smoothly, leaving a half inch margin, to make room for the strappings aud keep the book in good shape. How to Cook Beefsteak. A method of broiling equal in every respect to the gridiron, excepting that it lacks the smoky taste, is this. Set your spider on the stove, and let it get smoking hot Put in no butter or any kind of grease. Have your meat previously prepared by trimming off all pieces of bone, gland, superfluous suet and tissue that will bind the edge and make it turn np. Lay it very carefully and smoothly in the spider. It will stick fast at hrst' bnt as soon as it is browned can be loosed with a knife. Sprinkle a little salt on the upper surface, and turn it over. Let the other side brown the same as the first Have a platter warmed, lay the meat carefully npon it, without besmearing the edges ; dress with butter and pepper, and send to the table hot By this process you have a crisp and brown surface, with the juice retained as well as by broiling, and the additional advantage that the inevitable drippings are saved, and can be converted into gravy. To Perserve Bitter. Take two parts of the best common salt, one part good loaf sugar, and one part of salt petre : beat them well together. To sixteen ounces of butter throughly cleansed from the milk put one ounce of this composition : work it well, and put down when it becomes firm and cold. The butter thus perserved is the better for keeping, and shonld not be used under a month, lhis article should be kept from the air, and is best in pots of the best glazed earth that will hold from ten to fourteen pounds each. Tact. It is said that tact may be ac quired, but in general it is a gift and one not only gratifying to others, but a source of pleasure to those endowed with it It surmounts difficulties less by grappling with them than by in sinuating its way through them with grace or ease. Tact it always on the alert, always ready to turn advantages to account Like many other gifts, it may be abused : but it is not of the good things of life which promote en joyment Cracker Dessert.

Chloral m m Car tmr 9e-Slek The London Medical Record says : Dr. Oiraldes has published, in the Journal de Therapentiqne, an account of the means by which he avoided sea sickness, during two passages to Eng land and back. He was at Bologne last Jane on the way to London, when the weather waa so rongn tnat many in tending passengers hesitated to cross the channel. Dr. Oiraldes was informed by a colleague at Bologne that Ameri can physicians nsea tne syrup oi ciuo ral as a preventive of sea-sickness with successful results. He therefore ob tained some syrup of chloral, pnt him self into a quiet corner, and took his syrup, directly the vessel was in motion when, although his fellow-passengers exoerienced the usual unpleasant con- sequences, ne amvea at roiaestone . . . i i i without suffering the least inconveni ence. The same results were obtained on the return voyage, but he increased the amount of chloral. He had again occasion to cross the channel at the end of September by the night boat from Calais to Dover, and thinking, with reason, that the sea would be rougher at that season than usual, he had a draught made np composed of chloral. three grammes (forty-nve grains;: ais- tillud water, fifty grammes ; gooseberry svruD. sixty grammes : and French es sence of peppermint two drops. He took half the draught as the vessel left the harbor, and arrived at Dover without having suffered in the least from sea-sickness, which his compan ions were in the usual condition of pros trate misery. A very heavy sea was running. On his return from London on the 30th of October there was a high sea and much wind. He accordingly took the remaining portion of his draught, soon went to sleep, and only awoke on his arrival at Calais in the best possible condition. Dr. Oiraldes remarks that he is, as a rule, affected by sea-sickness when he crosses the chan nel, and that his two trials of chloral have convinced him of its efficacy as a preventive of that most disagreeable malady. He adds that he never goes down in the cabin, but makes himself as comfortable as circumstances will allow on deck."
