We Invito rnmniiinlrMlnna from nil persona wlin Interested In iimtU'iK properly lii'loimlnir to tin a pai tlutmt. To Smoke Hams. A writer In the irmbandman gives this renipe for smoking Imcon: "Take a tin pun or kettle of corn cobs and set them on ilre so as to make them smoke; then turn bottom side up over the smoking cobs the barrel,or whatever you wish to pickle or salt your bacon In, so as to thoroughly smoke the Inside of It. Burn at leant two pans of cobs under It, so as to smoke it well. Then pack the shoulders or other meat that you wiidi to make bacon of, in the cask, and after preparing your pickle, heat it nearly boiling hot, aud pour it on the meat, and let the meat stay until it Is pickled, when it is made into bacon, reudy for use and well smoked. I smoked my bacon by this process last fall, and it is well done. The bacon can remain in the pickle until used, and should It ferment scald it over." Jefferson's ten Rules. Take things always by the Binooth handle. Never spend your money before you have It. We seldom repent of having eaten too little. Tride cobIs more thun hunger thirst and cold. Nothing la troublesome that we do willingly. Never put ofTtill to-morrow what you can do to-duy. Never trouble another for what you can do yourself. Never buy what you don't want be cause It is cheap. How much pain the evils have cost us that never have happened. When angry, count ten before you speak ; if very angry, count a hundred. Sr-Dealers in corn and por k say that the best Western corn comes from be tween Iowa and Northern Tennesse, which Includes Illinois, Missouri, Iowa, Kansas,Nebraska and Southern Dakota. Corn cannot be profitable where it is too cold. The corn of Minnesota, except In the Southern part of the State, is never as good as in Iowa. The consequence is that Iowa is getting to be an immense corn-producing (as well as wheat-producing) State, and portly because it is found highly profitable to let the hogs consume the corn. Iowa farmers make money on hogs. Chicago buys most of its hogs from Iowa, and most of the hogs bought by the Boston packers come from Iowa, Illinois and Missouri. - -m- How to Choose a Good Cow. A crumple horn is a good ind Ication a full eye another. Her head should be, small and Bhort. Avoid a Koman nose, which indicates thin milk and little of it. See that she is dished in the face sunk between the eyes. Notice that she is what stock men call a handler skin soft and loose, like the skin of a dog; deep from the loin to the udder and a very slim tail. A cow with these marks never falls to be a good milker. 6JAn exchange says: Four years ago I heard that winter onions or shal lots set around the trees wonld prevent borers from working on peach trees. I tried the experiment on fifty trees just set, and on examining them to-day I iind many trees not thus protected are full of worms, but I have never found a worm on one with onions growing around it. I set eight to twelve around each tree. CJTTinned ware which tarnishes very readily is probably Inferior in quality, and dangerous to use, being contamin ated with lead, which is readily dissolv ed by weak acids. tVhen jellies are put away , care should be taken to cover the top with finely pulverized sugar, which will pre vent moulding. rQ"To destroy moths' eggs, saturate the fabric, carpet, or other goods, with warm water, and apply a hot fiat-iron for a few minutes. ttyTo prevent cakes or other delicate articles from burning, put a cup of water into the oven.
