HOUSE, FARM AND GARDEN.
For Tub Times.
Farmer, to Our Own Interest.
A farmer of twenty-five years experi
ence, on HaMeriiiRii'B Island, Dauphin
co., Pa., who lias paid enpecial atten
tion to etock ratalng, lately visited the
farm of Clen. Langhorne Wlster of Al
len's Cove, Perry county, and was rea lly
surprised when shown the stock owned
by that gentleman. He lias sixty-one
head of cattle, of the best variety ; two
cowa lately Imported, which, cost over
four hundred dollars ; an Imported bull,
which will at the present time weigh
about twenty-five hundred pounds, be
sides a large number of other cattle fai
surpassing any in the state, as the
General has been very particular In
selecting his stock from the best In
Europe. I have also visited the farniB
of Col. James Young, and VVm. Colder,
of Dauphin county, but their stock is
not up to the standard as compared to
Gen. Wlster's.
They make one hundred Bnd twenty
five pounds of butter every week which
is shipped to Philadelphia, at fifty cents
per pound, throughout the year. There
are four girls constantly employed in
milking, taking care of the milk and
manufacturing butter. ,
The farm Is worked by four men, and
six horses ; the men are employed by
the year, and are under the Instruction
of the General, who is not lacking in
knowledge, of how to make the most
profitable arrangements and yet keep
the farm in excellent condition.
I think if farmers would visit and see
the General's Btock and farm, and pur
chase their stock of him they would do
well, and in a short time so improve the
stock in the country that It would be a
great benefit to all. A Faiimkm..
Ventilating Sleeping Apartments.
As soon as the occupants have left the
room, the bedclothes should be entirely
removed from the bed, and hung upon a
clothes-horse or the backs of chairs, the
bed shaken up, and all curtains, if used,
drawn closely to the bedposts. The
windows should then be opened, both at
top and bottom. They should remain
open in summer, or in very fine weath
er, until a little before sun set; in very
sultry weather some outside air may bo
admitted all night. In winter and early
spring, windows should remain open
until a little after midday, when the
warmth of the air is greatest, and then
closed. In this way the air of the best
portion of the day is shut in and reserv
ed for respiration during the night,
when the external air is at the worst.
A fire should be lighted for a few hours
during the afternoon, in very cold and
damp weather, so as to dry the air which
has been shut in. This is the only way
in which the exhalations from the bed
clothing can be got rid of in such a
state of the atmosphere, and the sweet
ness and purity of the clothing and oth
er materials, which are kept In drawers
and wardrobes secured. Here is what
Professor Kedzie says :
"But," you will say, " how can you
tell whether the air of our bed-rooms is
pure or not V We are not chemists to
analyze the air: Why man 1 woman I
you have the best apparatus in the
world, and one given you for that very
purpose. Nature has given every one
of you a nose,and purposely placed it in
advance of all the rest of the body to
give warning of danger. It is the advance-guard
of safety I If you will use
this "one talent" which nature has
given you, and not keep it " wrapped in
a napkin," you may go safely. Use
your blessed nose for this purpose to
morrow morning to test the air of your
bed-room. When you get up, leave
your bed-room just as it was ; go out in
to the pure morning air and breathe
that till your nose is wide awake, and
then go back and take a few snuffs of
your bed-room air; if it smells fresh
and sweet, like out-door air, you have
good ventilation, and have breathed the
breath of life all the night. But if it is
close, musty, and sickening well, I'll
leave you to finish that sentence when
you and your bedmate compare notes at
breakfast, and to draw your own con.
elusions. Try the experiment, by all
means, and see how much your nose
can tell you. Perhaps it might give
you some Idea of the cause of your
waking with a headiclie and languor,
feeling that life is a burden. It is a bur
den when you carry such a crushing
and needless load."
tW The largest orchard in the world
is probably that of Robert McKlustry,
of Hudson, N. Y., which contains more
than 24,000 apple trees, 1,700 pear trees,
4,000 cherries, 500 peaches,, 200 plums,
200 crabs, 1,500 vines, 0,000 currants,
and 500 ehestnuts. The apple crop of
last year was 30,000 barrels.
