Few people know how to prepare uncooked tomatoes In the way adopted in my lamlly, and Incomparably better than any mode I have ever tented. By this mode they are very desirable for upper or for breakfast. For a family of half a dozen persons, take six eggs, boll four of them hard, dissolve the yolk with vinegar sufllelent and about three teaspoonfuls of mustard, and mash as smooth as possible ; then add the two remaining eggs (raw) yolk and whlte) stir well ; then add oil to make altogeth er sauce sufficient to cover the tomatoes well ; add plenty of salt and cayenne pepper; and beat thoroughly until It frotliB. Bkln and cut the tomatoes a full fourth of an Inch thick, and pour the sauce over, and you have a dish fit for a President. Thongh a little trouble some to prepare, yet If once eaten by people who are blessed with palates to enjoy good they will be pronounced to lie far superior to any other mode of pre paration. We use them constantly in this way for these meals. For dinner they are the best stewed, but they should always bo strained before Bending to table. Saving Cabbage Till Spring. We know no better way to preserve cabbage through the winter than that which we have recommended for a number of years. It Is to plant or set them up In rows as they grow that Is with the roots down till in with soil pretty freely, then make a covering by planting two posts where there Is a fence to rest on, or four where there 'is not, allowing for a pitch to carry off the water, lay bean-poles opposite the way of the pitch and cover with cornfodder or straw or boards. In using through the winter avoid as much as possible the sun side and close up again. 'We have our cabbages for about twenty years this way In a perfect state through the win ter and into the spring, and could even up to the first of May if desirable. We see other methods recommended, and they may answer just as well, but as to our own we speak from a long experi ence. Exchange A Post-Hole Digger. Among the new inventions designed to lighten the labor of digging post holes, is a double, round-pointed shovel . or spade, the two parts being connected like the two blades of a pair of shears or pinchers. The instrument is plunged into the soil the lengths of the blades some ten or twelve inches, and after compressing the earth by the leverage afforded through the jointed handles, the contents are lifted and dropped on the surface. Three or four plunges and withdrawals of the instrument will clear a six or eight-inch hole two or two and a half feet deep, all ready to receive the post, and the solid bank will hold the post much more firmly with a slight tamping, than if a larger hole were filled with loose earth. In a free soil a hole may be dug for an ordinary fence post iu from one to two minutes. AT.E. Farmer. Roots and their Lengths. Mr. Foot, in Massachu?etts,has traced the tap root of a common red clover plant downward to the perpendicular depth of nearly 5 feet. The Hon J. Stan ton Gould followed out the roots of In dian corn to the depth of 7 feet, and states that onions sometimes extend their roots downward to the depth of 3 feet; lucerne, 15 feet. Hon. Geo. Geddes sent to the museum of the New York state society a clover plant that had a root 4 feet 2 inches in length. Louis Walkholf traced the roots of a beet plant downward 4 feet, where they entered a drain pipe. Professor Schu bart found the roots of rye, beans, and garden peas to extend about 4 feet downward ; of winter wheat, 7 feet in a light subsoil, and 47 days after planting. Farmers Brain Work. Brain work, and that of the clearest kind, comes into profitable play quite as well on the farm as anywhere else. Look ahead get a lair view of the posi tion ; have plowing, sowing, harvesting, and selling, all done at the proper time ; never hurry; but always drive work ahead. Know in the evening what you intend to do next day. Have your rainy day and your clear day work designed beforehand. Always bring into requisition the full meant for com passing the desired end. In ehort,study and understand your business, and you will enjoy it and thrive on iu Ground Tea. A French chemist assert that if tea be ground like coffee, Immediately be fore hot water is poured upon it, it will yield nearly double the amount of Its .exhllerating qualities. 1878. FALL. 1878.
