Household Halters. Btbbons of any description should : ba washed in cold soap Bads sad not rinsed. A good way to clean Japanese ware is to wash it with a sponge dipped in clean cold water, wipe it dry and polish it with dry flour well rubbed on with a soft cloth. Sieves to be cleaned properly should bs put in hot Water containing a little soda or borax, bat no soap; scrub them well with a clean brush, rinse them thoroughly in plenty of boiling water, and shake them dry. . . Simple remedies are frequently the best for headaches. A cup of sour milk spread upon a thin cloth and applied to the head will many times give relief. Or, a mustard plaster on the back of the neck will often ease the pain. ; 't To remove mildew, soap the linen previously wetted, and apply salt and lemon juice to both sides; or apply finely powdered pipe-clay, or fuller's earth, or finely powdered chalk. Kxpose it for several hours to the atmosphere. To cure a felon take a pint of common soft-soap and stir in air stacked lime till it is of the consistency ol glazier's putty. Make a leather thimble, till it with this composition and insert the finger therein, and the cure is certain. This is a domestic aponication that every housekeeper can obtain -promptly. This is the month to watch potatoes as they are commencing to sprout. First, wash them and then plunge a few at a time, by means of small baskets, into boiling water, and hold them there for four or five seconds, dry and store them. This treatment destroys the vitality of the buds or "eyes" and there will be no tendency to sprout, and they will keep sound and of good flavor till "new potatoes and green peas'' come again. - Don't go out bare-headed to put your wet clothes on the line in winter weather. It is a foolish and unnecessary tax upon the system, and injurious to the hands. Gloves and mittens worn on ordinary occasions are apt to be more or less soiled and are not suitable for handling cleaif clothes. Have a pair for this very purpose. You can cut them from clean flannel (white seems the most suitable), and line them with another thickness of flannel or make them double if the flannel is thin. These should ba kept in a clean place ready for this particular business, and nothing else. A good and handy place to keep them is in the clothespin bag. Clothing worn next to the skin during the day should never be worn to sleep in; change everything to get rid of the products of the exhalations from the body, which become lodged in the clothing. When clothing has been worn a long time, whether worn next the skin or not, it becomes loaded with animal matter. This is more apt to be the case with men's clothing, as they don't usually wear as many different suits as the opposite sex. Men's clothing more especially should be often renovated, to set rid of this unwholesome animal matter. If neglected too long it acquires the characteristic odor of old clothiug, which is quite as disagreeable as it is detrimental to good health. Farm Hints far March. Newhainpsliire Patriot. It is not long before the season of spring's work will be upon us, and it behooves the fruitful husbandman to be prepared for it. During the few weeks which intervene between the time when the snow begins to disappear and the time when active opera tiobs can be commenced in the field, there is much work that cm be done which ill inure to the benefit of the farmer. In some inconceivable manner there collects about a man's premises lots of debris tbat ' is neither profitable nor ornamental. ' In the slack season we have spoken of, let him gather and burn, or otherwise dispose of the rubbish scattered about the stones, stakes, boards, posts, heaps of brash, decayed roots. The pruning of the rose-boshes, vines and shrubbery generally; pruning or the fruittrees, when the branches are not too large; pruning of - the roots of the dwarf pear trees, when they fail to fruit from rapid growth, by thrusting the spade down to the handle from 13 inches to two feet from the stem, all around it, can be attended to. Prune or clear out the dead or surplus stalks of the currant and gooseberry bashes; tcrape and wash with whale-oil soap and water, ODe pound to a bucket, the stems or trunks of the fruit trees "that may need it Repair the garden implement?; put in new handles where needed; teeth in the wooden rakes; prepare the brush for the peas; the poles for the beans; the stakes for the raspberries and make trellises for flowers and vines as may be necessary. Every good farmer should make himself familiar with tools, and become competent to do all this work satisfactorily in the many days of comparative leisure during the winter and . early spring months. - Tools should be care faliy sheltered, greased, and always kept in the best order. Overhaul occasionally the seed-chest to see tbat the mice have not, despite your efforts at safety, got among them. Orebard sad fiarden. American Agriculturist. If asked to suggest a motto to be kept in mind by every cultivator the present month, it would be "Make haste slowly." There is the danger, however, that many might observe the "slowly," and forget that it was coupled with "make haste." " March is practically, throughout the Northern and Middle States, the last month of winter, and in it there can be done but little other than winter work. No matter when spring opens to our readers, whether it be in February or May, there will be a temptation to begin to work the soil too early. The days of waiting for the soil to get in - proper condition are by no means wasted days; they allow a little longer for thorough preparation for work. The only way, in which we can abridge the time required for the soil to get ready is by draining, and at no time can we better judge where drains are needed than the present. Occasionally a correspondent suggests that our notes about work do not suit his locality. Of course we can not make notes that shall at once suit Canada and New Zealand, and we expect our readers to exer cise judgment in applying them. We en deavor to have them well in advance of the season for the great majoriry of our readers. In cur directions for planting and sowlDg, two peiiods era mentioned, and as these occur everywhere except in yejy -'warm, cauntries, oar r.olea have a wide pp-ication. Tha first period in "aaeoon as the ground ca be worked." Tui means earlv snrine. lust so soon tha wilrr has drained off and dried awy sufficiently to allow the toil to crumble and not work pasty before the plow or under the spade. The second period is usually expressed by "when the soil is well warmed" we sometimes say "at corn planting time," which means gthe same thing. In every locality experience has taught farmers that, take the average of lessons, there is a diits at which it is safe for them to plant their corn; this date will vary in the sime county, but it is well fixed for each neighborhood, and is the safest guide for sowing seeda of tender plants, or for setting out those plants that have been sturteu noder glass. Order and receive reeds, trees, plants, etc, as early as may be, but in sowing or planting them "make finite slowly." , , looli ta Your Fenra. . Amnng other things, in tha early spring, look your fences over carefuUy, repairing where needed, thus preventing much extra work and trouble during the busy season tbat is approaching. . Many a farmer makes his mct'i. twice as f-atd r.s it nd be by letting it get a" itad cf him. The fences should
bs In good condition bef ira tha cattle ' are let into the pastures at all. The force of habit is strong in animals, and when once they find a. 'fence that offers no impediment to their foraging instincts, a goxl deal of labor, care, and perhaps forcible language will be expended before they can be again confined within bonnes. ' . '
Treatment of Milking Stack. The farmer who tieaU his milking stock gently and feeds them carefully and welt, milking rapidly and clean, will soon realize the wisdom and profit of such a course. The difference between good treatment and bad every animal appreciates, and shows her appreciation by increased returns to the kind master, while she soon becomes contrary and liable to hold up ber milk when subjected to poor feeding and careless and cruel treatment. . .v ; - " , A SEW CKEAHEBY. Toe Institution fa Maznmanle, MichiganHow ttae Hotter Is to be Hanafactared. , , -, (Michigan Exchange. , , There has lately been started at Mazomanie, in this State, a new tystem of man ufacturing creamery butter. The method consists of the gathering of cream from farm dairies instead of taking the milk. The advantages of this system may be readily seen: First, the cost and economy in manufacturing; second, having the skimmed milk left on the farm for feed; third, it encourages the keeping of stock having butter-producing qualities, as the dairy will pay according to the amount of cream furnished. This is the only factory plan by which the dairy will be paid for the milk according to its bntter value. From this it will be seen that the company proposes to extend its business over a wide range of territory, and this it can do successfully. There ara in the towns above named nearly 4,000 cows from which they can take cream. There is no factory in the country with so great a nurubar of cows tributary to it. The extreme limit of territory is 24 miles from the factory, the cream being collected by the intersection of teams on the roads, thus saving in extra travel and expense. The Fairlamb ctcs are 19 inches high, 12 in diameter on top and 10) at bottom, provided with air tube in tha ce liter for the rapid cooling of the milk. The covers are of tin, and have a rubber band placed in the periphery of the cover, making the can air tight. The cans are provided with a glass gauge, inserted Inside of the can, for measuring depth of cream. The cream is reckoned by the company by the inch as indicated ;by this glass gauge. --... The cover orevents any impurities in the air from coming in contact with the milk; it also adds to the milk's keeping qualities by keeping it hermetically ssaled. The plan consists of gathering cream from the dairies, byagents of the Creamery company, accounting to each dairy for tha number of inches of cream taken. The cream is then stored in the factory till it has acquired an acid, when it is ready for. churning. The qnaiity of cream obtained also depends on cleanliness in milking, care of cows, and in fact every particular. As dairymen by this system receive py for the cream by the inch, they will get full value for the feed and attention given to their cows, while on the old system of selling, all producers received the same pay per hundred pounds, regardless of the richness of the milk they were furnishing to the batter factory. The value of milk depends on the amount of cream it contains, and by this process, it is claimed, a larger percentage of cream and a smaller percentage of waste will be realized. There is not one farmer in a thousand who has the means for keeping a dairy with the requisite nan: ber of cows and the necessary amount of machinery for manufacturing batter, that can in any way supply the same wants that are being met by the products of the creameries Dairymen, like all others, must win success by co-operation; it is the cheapest, best and most profitable way. How Clostar Schleicher Was Sent ' to Congress. ' fNew York World. " ' The district that the lateUustavSchleicher represented in Congress was the' largest in the country. It took in the whole southwestern part of Texas, from the Mexican frontier half way across the State, away beyond San Antonio. Delaware, Rhode Island and New Jersey could have been packed away In it without covering all the ground. To hold a convention in tbat district wa not the work of a day or a week. When the convention was called in 1S74 there were two ciDdidates in the field whose strength was about equal. Tbe convention was called to meet at Brownsville, and there were 125 delegates. The party from Sau Antonio expected a siege, and made preparations. They nirtd a good cook, laid in two or three wagon loads of supplies, the principal items being a ton of ice and two barrels of whisky, and started. It was almost a two weeks' journey, and they took it leisurely. On arriving at Brownsville they pi tcned their, teat, aalimberrd the barrels of whisky, and then were ready for the fight Day after day the balloting went on, always with the same result, and the end apparently as fir off at ever. Finally the Ice begtn to grow beautifully less, and even the whisky was low in the barrel- With the dissipation of the ice and the failure of the whisky it was evident that something must ba done. Tne thirtieth day of the couventioi was approaching, when an ' old stage driver . got up, and, after , eulogizing the two candidates, said " that he wanted to make a suggestion. There was one man who knew the whole State of Texas. It was a big State, and there was only one man who had tramped all over it. That man was Gus Schleicher. He knew every foot of it as a surveyor. Besides that, he was an honest man, and one with whom all the boys could trust He did not want to say anything, bat on the next ballot he should give his vote for Schleicher. No one had thought of it but the effect was electrical. ' The voting had hardly begun when the end was plain, and one of tbe candidates withdrew his name. Schleicher was nominated and the nomination made unanimous. No one was more surprised than he. He was speechless, and when they called upon him he could not say a word. He had never thought of the office as one that he could aspire to, for the competition was bitter and between two popular and able lawyers. He attempted to say something, but burst out into tears and sat down. The boys gave him another round of cheers, and from that day to this not a man in that convention ever regretted the yote that bo gave. "Yon 5'f Jioow Tnelr Value." , ' They cured me ol ague, biliousness and kidney complaint, as recommended. I had a half bottle left which I used for my two little girls, who the doctors and neighbors said could not be cured. I am confident I should have lost both of them one night if I had not had the Hop Bitters in my house to use. I found they done them so much good I continued with them, and they are now weit Tnat is why I say you do not know half the value of Hop Bitters, aod do not recommend them high enough."
