School For Girls.
At the Iowa Agricultural College
every girl In the Junior class has learned
how to make good bread, weighing and
measuring her ingredients, mixing
kneading and halting, and regulating
her fire. Each has been taught to make
her yeast and make blsnult, puddings,
pies and cakes of various kinds; how to
cook a roast, broil a steak and make a
fragrant cup of coffee ; how to stuff and
roast a turkey, make oyster soup, pre
pare stock for other soups, steam and
mash potatoes so that they will melt in
the mouth, and, In short to get up a first
class meal, combining both substantial
and fancy dishes In good style. English
classic and mathematical studies are not
neglected. It Is reported that the teach
ing of sewing In the Boston schools Is
very successful. Although Instruction
Is given to each girl only two hours
each week, those pupils who came Into
the school not even knowing how to
hold a needle are able to hem nicely and
sew over-seams at the end of the first
term. The special teacher prepares the
work at home, to that it can be put
promptly Into the hands of the pupils
without wasting a moment.
Raising Squashes.
Mr. J. T. Chandler, of Everett, states
that he has adopted the following meth
od of raising squashes, and assures us
that since practicing It he lias never in
a single instance failed of a good crop,
lie first digs a small hole for each hill,
into which he puts a liberal quantity of
manure and covers it to the depth of an
inch or two with soil. Tbe hole is then
covered with coal ashes, with which the
hole is filled, and the soli on the manure
is covered. The seed is planted, or
plants set, in the ashes directly over the
manure. At each hoeing a fresh supply
of ashes is scattered around the plants,
which are thus kepi entirely free from
grubbs, while in his experience every
hill planted without ashes will be
destroyed. Am. Cultivator.
Chloride of Lime as an Insecticide.
Le Cultivateur remarks that rats,
mice, and ineects will at once desert
ground on which a little chloride of
lime has been sprinkled. Plants may
be protected from insect plagues by
brushing their stems with a solution of
it. It has often been noticed that a
patch of land which has been treated in
this way remains religiously respected
by grubs, while the unprotected beds
round about are literally devastated.
Fruit trees may be guarded from the
attack of grubs by attaching to their
trunks pieces of tow smeared with a
mixture of chloride of lime and hog's
lard, and the ants grubs already in pos
session will rapidly vacate thelrposltlon.
Useful Hints.
A Bmall piece of charcoal, in the pot
with boiling cabbage removes thesmell.
Clean oil cloths with milk and water;
a brush and soap will ruin them.
Tumblers that have had milk in them
should never be put in hot water.
A spooful of stewed tomatoes in the
gravy of either roasted or fried meats is
an improvement.
Persons troubled with feet that perspire
or smell offensively can effect a cure by
bathing them every night or oftenerin a
strong solution of borax. Two or three
weeks of this treatment will probably be
found sufficient.
W It frequently happens that a cup
or bowl of hot water is set down on var
nished furniture, and leaves an unsight
ly spot on the polished surfuce. This
can be easily removed by wetting a bit
of soft flannel in alcohol, and rubbing
over the place bilskly. When the
marks are all effaced take another cloth,
with a drop or two of boiled linseed oil,
and rub it over lightly, and the sharpest
eyes can never see a vestige of the stain,
lu case a black stain gets upon furni
ture, a few drops of spirits of ammonia
rubbed on will take it all off; then rub
with oil.
Advertising Cheats.
It has become so common to write the
beginning of an elegant, interesting
article anil then run it Into some adver
tisement tlmt we avoid all such cheats
and call attention to the merits of Hop
Bitters in as plnln honest terms as
possible, to induce people to give them
one triul, as no one who knows their
value will ever use anything else. 1.
Ifjf One pint castor oil, the same of
grass fed beef tallow, and one pound of
resin. Put into a small kettle together,
stir over a lire until the rosin la thor
oughly dissolved. Thin makes a good
axle grease.
