THE TIMES NEW BLOOM FIELD, PA.. JANUARY 27, 1880.
HOUSE, FARM AND GARDEN,
Profitable Farming.
The Heading (Pa.) correspondent of
the Philadelphia Ledger furnishes the
following:
"Farming as a general thing, Is not
considered a very profitable employ
ment, nor do farmers In many sections
of the Bute retire upon fortunes made
by tilling the soil; but there are some
farmers who accumulate a good deal of
money by producing a variety of articles
which years ago were not considered a
part of their busluess. A visit recently
to the farm of Mr. Christopher Shearer,
Ave miles north of Heading, gave me a
good Idea of progress. This farm con
tains 100 acres, and lias upon it an
orchard of Bartlett pears, which occu
pies 10 acres; there are also 40 acres In
peaches and apples, and another npple
orchard which occupies 18 acres of land.
From 10 to 20 acres are planted In tobao
co, and the balance of the land Is plant
ed In potatoes, rye, strawberries, arti
chokes, willow trees for baskets, and a
nursery of peach trees. There Is also a
large pond for gathering Ice, K supply
au Immense refrigerator, In which the
fruit Ib stored and kept until the market
is favorable for .Its Bale.
"The crops gathered this year were
1,000 bushels of pears, which sold at au
average of $2 per bushel ; the peach or
chard, which is quite young, produced
400 baskets, which sold for $1 per bask
et. From the apple orchard there were
picked 2,000 bushels, which sold from $1
to $1.50 per bushel. The apples that fell
from the trees, and those not considered
worth sending to market, were sent to
the cider press, and from them 200 bar
rels of juice were obtained, which Is
now in large vats, to remain until it be
comes vinegar, selling at la cents per
gallon. The patch of tobacco yielded
from 1,500 to 2,000 pounds per acre, aud
sold at 15 cents per pound. In addition
to this 2,000,000 of tobacco plants were
sold at $1 per 1,000; 1,200 bushels of Je
ruselem artichokes were raised, for the
purpose of feeding cattle, but most of
them were sold in New York, at from
$2.50 to $3 per barrel, for pickling pur
poses, most of them being used in res
taurants and bar-rooms as appetizers or
for lunch. The sale of willows produc
ed $100 this year, and from the nursery
$500 was obtained by the sale of young
peach ahd apple trees. Last spring four
acres were planted in strawberries, and
it is expected that next year at least 10,
000 quarts will be gathered. Notwith
standing the long dry spell in this sec
tion of the State, grapes enough were
gathered to .make C00 gallons of wine,
which readily sells for $1 per gallon.
Mr. Shearer also bought grapes enough
from his neighbors to make 500 gallons
more. On the other portions of the land
there were gathered 35 tons of hay, 400
bushels of potatoes, and 250 bushels of
rye. There was also sold $HO0 worth of
ice, the pond yielding more than was
necessary for supplying the refrigerator,
and $200 was received from other farm
ers for storing fruit, &c, in the ice house.
Thentire cost of farming the land in
cluding fertilieers, was for the year,
$4,000. The products amounted to over
$12,000, quite a respectable profit on 100
acres of land."
B3T It is a good plan to put earthen
ware Into cold water and let it heat grad
ually until it boils; then cool again.
Brown earthenware may be toughened
in this way. A handful of fcran thrown
in while boiling, will preserve the gla
zing, so that it will not bo destroyed by
acid or salt.

C3T To make boots and shoes proof
against snow water, take a little beeswax
and mutton suet warmed in a pipkin
until in a liquid state. Then rub some
of It lightly over the edges of the sole
where the stitches are, which will repel
the wet, and not in the least prevent the
blacking from having the usual effect.
