Having seen so many cures for chicken cholera I will give you my remedy. First, I change my breed every year or two and I keep the coop clean, and whitewash inside and and outside, mix ing about one pint of coal oil to a gal lon of whitewash. I have done this for the last thirty years and never lost any chickens by that disease, while my neighbors have lost all their poultry all around me at different times. I am also careful not to let a fowl get more than two or three years old. Try this and save your chickens. II. FOULK. Splendid Wheat Yield. Joseph Hutchinson, Esq.', whose farm adjoins the borough of Oaysport, Pa., has a field containing tweuty-Bix acres from which he cut 089 dozens of Fultz wheat, which yielded the enormous quantity, when thrashed, ol 013i bushels by measurement, or 089 bushels by weight, making an average of over 35 bushels per acre by measurement and of 38 bushels by weight. The truth of this statement can be proved by Mr. Daniel Delozier and William McGono gle, both reliable citizens. Gathering Late Apples. The economy of apple-gathering is contained in this rule : Do not free ze, bruise or mix your apples. As frost causes early decay, the weather Bhould be sharply watched. To be sure, the leaves protect apples from the cold, but this protection is not perfect, and the apples will not thus be equally good. The fruit should all be picked by hand, the scattering ones which cannot be reached should be separated from the rest when knocked oft', since the bruises induce decay. Two or three days should be allowed for the apples to dry and cool. In barreling the assorted apples, fill each a little more than full, so that when the heads are pressedjdowu they will not shake. It is better to keep the different varieties separate, and if an orchard is to be set out, to choose but few varieties, since thus you will have enough of each to make a fair market ing. Cooking Potatoes. To most of us the food we eat is val uable because we like it, and not so much because we consider ourselves a machine on which profit and loss is to be nicely calculated in regard to what we eat. But, as perhaps some of our readers are chemically or financially disposed, and have a desire to know to a penny what their bodies cost, and to a grain the material of which it is made, we give the following about cooking potatoes from an English agricultural magazine ; As food the potato is valu able on account of the potash and phosphoric acid it contains, and it is of the first importance that the potash salts should not be lost in the process of cooking, for it is to these salts potatoes owe their anti-scrobatic properties. Potatoes steamed with their skins ou lose very little potash and scarcely any phosphoric acid ; while, if steamed after peeling, they lose 5 and 7 per cent, re spectively. Similarly, potatoes, when boiied with their skins on, lose a little more than 2 per cent, of their potash , and about 1 per cent, of their phosphor ic acid; but, if they are boiled after peeling, they lose as much as 33 per cent, of potash and 23 per cent, of phos phoric acid. Hence if potatoes must be peeled, they should be steamed, not poiled ; and, if they must be boiled, they should at least retain their jackets duri ng the operation the best way of all, from a scien title point of view, being to steam them before peeling, or to bake them in their skins. Boston Brown Bread. One pint each of Indian and Itye Meal; 1 cup of Molasses: H pints of Milk or Water; 1 teaspoonful of Soda; 1 teaspoonful Salt. Steam three hours, and then place in the oven and bake un til well browned. C2Do not take up roses uutil frost sets in, unless wanted for early flower ing. When potted, cut them back to the partially ripened wood, and press the soil firmly around the roots. C3TA few gallons of gas tar to a barrel of water, applied with a garden sprinkler, repeating as often as necessa ry, is said to be destructive to vine bugs, cabbage worms, and Colorado beetles. Tlie largest strawberry farm in the world is probably that of John It. Young, about two miles from Norfolk, Va. It comprises about 200 acres. The yield lu.t ymr was 2,000 quarts to the cre.
