Halter Pulling.
The Idea has been advanced that halter
pulling la the refill t of the horse having
sometime been hurt when hitched, and,
fearing reetUlon, tries to get away from
any Imaginary evil. Acting on this
theory, a correspondent of the N. Y.
Observer made a successful trial of a
counter Irritant. I take a good, well
twisted cord, sightly thicker than a lead
pencil, strong enough to bear some
strain, and yet not so large as to prevent
its stinging a little, and of sufficient
length, pass it under the tail, twisting
it double to secure direct pull, as It ran
over the back and under the saddle, and
then an end through each bit ring,
making there a slip-knot, which would
give at once upon tension, still keeping
the cord In the ring and running it be
yond, tied it tightly to the hitching
post. I thus had him in fact tied up to
the post by the tall. Then I tied him by
the bridle rein, shorter than by the cord,
making the tie to the post with a Blip
knot, which would give upon the least
tug. The result was, so soon as left to
himself, he began to pull, the bridle
slipped loose quietly, and before he got
to the end, as he supposed, he brought
up sharply against the now tightened
cord, which stinging him severely, yet
not cutting the skin under the tali,
make him spring forward and away
from a " Are lu the rear." I repeated it
by again tying him up by the bridle,
but I had to " back " him the second
time, ftnd,- within fifteen minutes, I
couldn't force him back, nor would he
stir so as to tighten the bridle rein, al
though I flirted au umbrella and threw
a robe In his face. lie never again
while I knew him for five years after
pulled on his halter.
Model Fifteen Acre Berks Farm.
Mr. Klias Iiiegal, of Spring township,
who formerly resided on Bushong's
farm in the same township, but at pres
ent cultivates a farm of fifteen acres
which he purchased, has furnished an
interesting statement of the operations
of his farm for ending Jan. 31. 1880,
which certainly must prove a strong ar
gument in favor of small farms, as
showing what can be accomplished.
Writers have proved that "ten acres
enough," is not an unwise maxim, and
that a little farm well tilled is better
than a large one poorly managed. In
many instauces small farms are the
most profitable, particularly in the vi
cinity of large cities, where the proprie
tors can devote themselves to special
ties. In this case Mr. Eeigal appears to
have directed his attention to the sup
plying of this market with butter and
cheese and eggs. lie makes an aston
ishing exhibit of the product of three
cows. From the 1st of February, 1879,
to. the 1st of February, !8S0, he made
and sold 825 pounds of butter, exclusive
of what was required for family use.
The average for the year was aocordkig
iy 17 pounds per week, although during
the periods when the oows were fresh
the average was as high as twenty
pounds per week. One of the cows,
tine animal of the Durham breed, gave
an average yield, when fresh, of twelve
pounds of butter per week. From the
same cows, however, were sold 4,503
cups of cooked cheese. During the
.same year 0041 dozen of eggs were sold,
besides chickens, fruit, garden vegcta
. bles and other farm products. The
valuo of the butter and eggs sold during
the year was about $150. Berks and

Pie Crust Glaze.
To prevent the juice soaking through
into the crust and making it soggy, wet
the crust with a beaten egg just before
you put in the pie mixture. If the top
of the pie is wet with the egg it gives It
a beautiful brown.
To clean wall paper, take about two
quarts of wheat bran, tie it in a bundle
of coarse flannel, and rub it over nicely.
Some people use bread, but dry bran is
better.
There is a greenness io onions and po
tatoes tlit makes them hard to digest.
For health's sake put them lu warm
water for an hour before cooking.

" Well-a-day ! That is remarkable ! I
