At this season especially it is important to eee that stock have a good variety. Generally they have been on dry feed for a Ions time, and if no pains U taken to supply a variety, they are apt to get tired cf their food and fail t" do as well as they should. This with fattening stock li qnito an ite-n. Many fariner3 foilow the plan of keeping both cattle and ho?s during tho winter and finishing for ppring market. It U necessary to keep them in pood, thrifty condition during the winter in order to fecure the bef-t results in the eprir.g. At the same time it is important to keen them thrifty nt as small an expense Ed possible. It U often the case that after cattle have been fed for pome time on the ca:r.e rations they will tire of it get oil their feed and although they may be fed liberally and have pood, comfortable quarters, yet they will fail to train aa they should. Every day that they are Jed iu this condition it is adding to tho expense without a corresponding profit. Corn h oiw of the best fattening rations that can bo given to either cattle or boss, end yet when male an exclusive ration too lung the tt vk tire of it and fail to trake tho b?ht gain. With all kinds of etock, whenever they are beiaz fed to fatten, i: tho lest profit is realized, it is necessary to push the pain aa fist as possible and a variety oi rod will do tiiis much better than than any one material. Corn can bo iu ad e the principal ration, b':t a Efficient qantity of other materials should be used truuake up a variety. Tliismaybe oats, bran, (ill meal, middiin::?. bar'ev or rye; any r fill o! these can be usd to make r.p a irood v.:iv.ty with corn, fodder, hay and ttruw. It i not tl3 quantity of feed eaten that determines t;:e pain, but what is dige-ted and a-imilated, and to Eec :ro a gcod diss-tion it is essential that the !i shou! 1 lo in a pood con dition and tin foo l psippdel in mu-h a mann, r that it nn be thoroughly masticated r.nd digged.

On most i..rais there is at this time of the year le.-s variety rf f.:,l ih,m at almost any other season, red thi-s is usually the season wh-n it is mo-t r.cdrd. If the cattle and ho,rs can te kept iu pood, thrifty condition until ctjss has made a good start to Irow they enn be fattened very rapidly; hops cepecia ly eo, and with much lets cost than is possible with grain alone. Uut witii a little care in mana.'ement a sulhcient variety can. bo supplied to keeD the animals with a pood appetite, but if this cannot le Jone, it will be better to buy oil iura!, bran or middling) rattier than t depend u; on corn or any one cjaterial alone at this season. PRi PARING PUR SPRING. Th U uf Manor tlrflnr.l, Farm n4 Cir.rdin .ir. The mode of applying manure depends üpon tho kind of sdi. Heavy, clay land, that Las a deep subsoil of clay, will hold the manure for years, because it cannot be easily carried down by the rains; bat on lipht, sandy soils the soluble portions of the manure are sometimes carried off before it can be appropriated by the young plants. This may be partially avoided by applying only r. portion of the manure in the sprinp, and applying another portion later in the season, working it well into the eoil until thoroughly incorporated with it. Zo animal should bo compelled to drink water that is unfit for human being, and estecially the cow which gives milk, as she simply hands to her owner that which he srivei tier in tho t-1 ape.ot "raw material" from which to manufacture milk. Kust on celery is caused by bunching with earth duriup war-:; weather. Leaves or paper should be ii"od until in the fall, fc;ow the ceiery peed in hot bed?, amtpl.ir.t out to tiit! open ground after frost is over. The ground should be very rich. It is th fniall things on a farm that demand the closest attention. A leak will tmpty a hogshead, atid yt it may scarcely bo airareut. Crude petroleum is recommended E3 one of the be.-t and cheapest lubricants for w?gon wheels, and also farm ujachinery, that can he need. There are hundreds of farmers who understand more than they put into practice. They ar3 slow to make innovations on establish, d rules and customs. No progree3 ran bo made 0:1 any lar.;i, however, until newer metho is are tested and tried, and it is important to progress iu onh-r to succeed. Vt'hen plowing for corn the ground should le gotten into f:no condition, and If tlie manure is broadcasted pnd well worked into the noil, the roots will reach it Letter, and appropriate the plant food inoru fc.irdlv. Too much manure cannot be applied to corn land, and by keeping the land veil cultivated thero wili be fewer weeks for a succeeding crop. In fact, a corn crop is ono of the best for destroying weeds and clearing the land. If you intend to us the fungicides and insecticide s preparations mustbe made early. There will bo no timo to get ready after the session opens. IHoKSoms must be f prayed as soon as they appear, and a day or two in d'.'iay may cause the I033 of a portion of tiio fruit. Tho rot on grapes can only be prevented by vigilant work. Tho debris around the Vines mu9t be raked up and burnt and the full use of air-slaked lime made on the ground, while the sprayer must be put in uso not only early, but often, during tho whole season. Where the lawn has been established thero should be given an application of f.n, well-rotted manure, free from coarse litter, and it should be done without delay in order to allow the rains and frost to carry th manure down to tue roots oi the grass. Wood ashes wiil also bo of asiiatancc. ew lawns ohord. bo plowed, plenty of manure a. owed and the seed sown thickly as early in the season as je-dl!?. One bp cf nitratu cf oda, one of superphosphate and ono of ldk'h grade muriate of 1 otah will form a fertilizer for the garCt;x and for email fruits, the three bags Leicreuiricient for about one acre of land. It m a mixture that may rot be a complete ono for all ch'sfies of soils or crops, but it h a combination that supplier all the leading elements of plant fooL b'cotch snu:f thrown into rat holes will Drove too disrgrecable for them and the

rodents will leave if the snuff is frequent-1

ly applied. The remedy 13 expensive, however. Labor on the farm is aid to bo constant, beginnine early and late. The same may be said of many other occupations. There are periods of tho year when the farmer is very busy, but when the loss oi time during the winter is considered and the number of hours actual employment is apregatM for the whole year, it is doubtful if farmers exceed the a-erage number of hours of labor for an entire year. An orchard on the farm alwavs adds more to the value of the farm than the cost of the orchard. If the trees consist of a variety of fruit the advantage is preater. livery farm should have an orchard of standard fruits, and no farm is complete without one. Poes the corn crop pay? is a question sometimes discussed, and there are farmers who are ready to maintain that corn is not a profitable crop. It is estimated that a bushel of corn can be produced at a cost of 20 cents for all expenses. By increaing the yield per acre tho expense is lessened, hence the object should be to secure as many bushels per acre as possible Broom corn should be a profitable crop. Xot only is the seed valuable as food for poultry, but tho brush commands a ready sale. At tho present time the supply is short and prices well np. It is a crop that is as easily erown ag corn. The first duty of a farmer is to supply his home with all th various luxuries that can be grown on a farm. With the many varieties of fruits and vegetables that can be produced on a farm the farmer should be able to have nearly all his wants supplied, so far as his table is concerned. In etiinatinp the receipts for the year the farmer should always include those articles snpplied bv him to his family. Don't forget that the frost can pulverize the soil much better than you can do it with anv kind of mechanical appliances. Bv plowing the ground early and allowing the frost to enter you not only reduce the lumps and clod, but also turn up many worms to the surface to be destroyed by cold. A cros of the Porkinp male and Brahma hen produces fine capons, and they are in prent demand at the present time. The production of capons should be made a leading business on all poultry farms. It is often the rase with a flock of hens that a few of them lay while the others produce nothing. It will pay to select the lavers and get rid of th' unprofitable liens. It !os not pav to permit two or three prolific hens to support a dozon that are idle. THE f!- USE HOLD. Cart of On' C'o hf Kc'p for Good L!Ttii Hint. The Care of One's Clothes Ore's apparel will last much loncer, and also much replenishing be saved if everything is well tr ken care of. Nothing pays better than this watchfulness, which only takes a little extra time and patience. Always, if possible, look over every article of wearing apparel each time it is taken oT. hake dresses, brush them thoroughly and carefully; bang them away in the closet, and be sure that the loops are placed in the right places; a dress should never be hung up without loops. Many prefer to fold handsome dresses, wrap them in an oid sheet and lay them in a drawer, I hang all of mine up in closets, always keeping a sheet pinned across evening or lipht dresses. Never throw dresses over a chair, or hang other articles over them in a closet, as it makes them badly wrinkled and injures them badly. Cloaks and wraps, after being well brushed, should be hung up by'a loop at the back of the neck, or they may bo caretully laid in a drawer. Fold shawls in their original creases, and either lay them in a drawer or on ttie shelf, but never ham them ud. Hats and bonnets should also have as pood care, putting them in boxes; or if laid on the sneli they should be wrapped in a piece of white cloth to keep them from the dust When taking bonnets off, straighten and smooth the ribbons and ilowers before layingawny. One l.aree drawer in the dresser should be kept and especially dedicated to ony'a ribbons, laces, handkerchiefs, gloves., etc, also having separate boxes in tho drawer for articles of a kind laces by themselves. ribbons, etc. Always when taking olf gloves, pull them out lengthwise, smooth them and lay carefully in the box set apart for them; never roll them up together and toss them aside like a bit of rubbish; and, if possible do not fold them over in tho center. Laces should be well looked after, and kept fresh, neat and smoothly folded. Do not allow any of these smaller articles of the toilet to bo thrown altogether in a drawer in amass of confusion ; it will tako tho freshness and neatness from them. Shoes should never be thrown about, left to lie on the floor under the bed, to collect the dust, which surely injures them; smooth them out, brush them, and if no buttons are off, no rips found, place them in the shoo bag or box. Never allow a button to stay off oi a bhoe, as it shows great negligence, besides hurting the appearance of tho shoe. Always have on Land a brush broom, a bonnet brush, a sponge and pieces of soft flannel, bottles containing ammonia, benzine and alcohol, and some cleansing lluid, to aid in removing spots of dust aud dirt, stains, etc., from the clothing. Keep every article carefully mended, as by that means it can hi made to last much longer. Verily, a etitch in time does save more than "nine. And by all means never wear a stocking with even a very email hold in it, but change it as quickly as possible and darn it very neatly; 60 with all articles of wearinp apparel. food JIvvsektrping.

Shake well and bang where the goods w ill dry quickly. Spanish Stow This is an excellent way to use up tough cold beef. Take two or three pounds of cold meat and cut it into small pieces, put it in a etew-pan with a can of tomatoes, two good-sized onions rutin quarters and five or six sticks of macaroni broken into small pieces. Cover the stew-pan and cook until the meat is reduced to shreds, which will be for three or four houri. If the gravy bora away add boiling water enough to make it the required thickness ; season highly before scrvin?. Babbit Die Ono rabbit, a few slices of pok, either salted or not, one hard-boiled egg, a little inaee, a few drops lemon juice, tjcppcr and butter. Cut the rabbit into pieces, soak in halted water half an hour and stew until half dono in enouph water to cover it. Lay some slices of tho pork in the bottom of a pie-dish, and upon these a layer of rabbit. Upon this lav slices of boi.ed e.-gs, pepper and butter. Fpnoklo a litlle powdered mace, and Bqtieezo a few drops of lemon peel upon each piece of meat. Proceed in this order until the dish is full, the top layer being pork.

Stand this on the back part of the range for thirty minutes; then dish the tongues, remoye every particle of fat from the surface of the sauce, strain over the tongues and serve. A caa of chopped mushrooms may be added to the sauce after it is straine'd, then it can bo simply reheated. They nny be aiso served with tomato sauce. Table Talk. To Clean Engravings For clezjiing old engravings of carbonate of soda, use the bicarbonate, in slight excess, for decomposing chloride of lime. The reaction is very violent, and Javeil water is easily separated from tho precipitate produced. Old engravinps, wood-cuts and all kii.da ot printed matter that have turned voll Ovare completely restored by being immersed in it only for one minute, without the least injury to the paper, if tho precaution is taken to thoroughly wash the article in water containing a little hyposulphite of Bda. Undyed linen and cotton goods of all kinds, however soiled or cirty, are rendered snowy white in a very short time by merely placing them in the liquid mentioned. For the preparation of Javelle water, tako four pounds of bicarbonate of soda, one pound of chloride of lime; put tho soda into a kettle over the fii-e, add ono gallon of boiling water, let it boil frona ten to fifteen minutes, then stir iu the chloride of lime, avoiding lumps. When cold, the liquid, can be kept ia a jug ready for use. Ptirfis!t'r$' Weekly. Baked Salt Mackerel For six people use two Ealt mackerel of medium size. Soak over night in a pan of cold water, with the spl.t side of the fish down. In the morning put a tin sheet in a dripping pan and lay the mackerel on this, the sjdit side up. Dour a pint of sweet milk over them and bake in a moderate oven for half an hour. When they have been cooking for twenty minutes mix together two tablespoonfuls of butter, one tablespoonful of Hour and one-fourth of a t aspoonfnl of salt. Stir this mixture into the milk and finish the cooking. Lift the fcheetoutof the pan and slide the libh upon a hot dibh. Four tho sauce oyer it and serve. Una is a good dish fordinner, and can bo served with potatoes in any form. dV"f Jlou.-eko'itlrnj. Chocolate Creams Ono cupful of granulated sugar, one-third of a capful of cold

water; boil sugar and wat r until it just strings when you lift a little up: remove from the lire end beat (first flo uring) untd cool; do not stir while cooking; when cool lorm into balls ready for chocolate. Ybu can put nuts, raisins, citrons or bits of ligs inside the ba'is if desired. Melt the the chocalatu' in a bowl over the teakettle, dip the creams in, and when coated remove and place to cool on buttered papeis. The great point is to get te sugar cooke i just enouph. it too much done, it becomes Migary instead of creamy; it can be cooked over, adding water apaio. lloastad Oyster Cracker Put two tablespoon fu's of butter in a bowl with hali a pint of boiling water. When the butter is melted, put in a pint and a half of oyster crackers, stirring them well, that all may get a slight coatim: of tho butter and water. Spread the crackers in a shallow pan and pat inahotoveu for tenor t welve minutes. They should be brown and glefesy at the end of that time. Serve In a deep dish, with the oyster soup.

Cocoanut Drops Four tablespoonfuls of grated cocoanut, the white of one eg beaten stiff and about two tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar a little more if tho mixture seems too soft; drop on buttered paper and bake in a cool oven about fifteen minutes or until a pale brown. Whito Potato l'uddine One and a half pounds of potatoes finely mashed, a quarter of a pound of butter, one pound of sugar, six epirs and four blades of mace powdered. Bake, without pastry, in a rather shallow dieh or with pastry in picop.atts. Ainoriy tli Poultry. The best layers make poor mothers. Small hen turkeys bring the best prices at this season. At this seasonh little neglect goes a long ways with poultry. Feather pulling is largsly the rosult of idleness with the hens. Too much corn and too cold quarters will often be the cauee of no epg. The best way of feeding oata is to ecald well and let them stand over night. Buckwheat, oats, meal and milk are good for laying hens ; feed liberally. Feathers and a comb are matters of fancy; egg-laying is of more importance. Always crush tho cjjg shells thoroupbly before feeding, or tho hens will learn to eat eggs. When it is desired to get pullets, breed from old birds as nearly the same ago as possible. When tho hens are laying it is important that they get their food and drink regularly. The breedinp pens for this season should be male up now as Eoon as possible. Select out the best. Long, pointed eggs are often called rooster eggs; they do not usually hatch a3 well us those that are oval. Lonp, silvery hairs on the legs and thighs standing out beyond the featherä U a good indication of health. At least until grans makes a start to grow it is usually best to feed the poultry regularly three times a day. Spring chickens sold at spring prices nearly always pay better than more matured fowls marketed later on. In ordering seeds get a supply of sunflowers and plant so as to have the seed next wiuter to feed the poultry. Individuality is as strong in hens as in other stock, therefore keep a really good hen as long as she will lay egps. Eggs for hatching are best If not over two weeks old and not exposed to a temperature colder than 50 degrees. "When fed whole to layiß; hens or cracked wheat given to the young poultry nearly always give good results. If you purchase breeding fowls, keep theiu to thcmsleves several days after they arrive, to see if they are healthy. The best profit in raising f ;r market is in hatching early, pushing tho growth as much as possible and thus marketing early. e Ducks should have dry straw on the floor of their quarters every night, eppopecially after they begin to lay eggs regularly. Ii the enow stays long on tho ground it will pay to clean off a place near tho poultry bouse so as to give them a spot ior exercise. If the heos get "off their feed" let them do without one or two meals and then give them a decreased ration for a day or two. Many a raso of fndigsstion may bo traced to a heavy feod in the morning and allowing tho next mcnl to be cateu from what is left. It is of more importance to eopplj plenty of grit during the winter than at any other season as fowl are then confined more closely.

Ever' agent will be entitled to retain the commission on each subscription he secures, as per our circular of rates to local agents, or premiums may be selected for clubs in accordanco with our Premium list. The prizes are intended as extra compensation for extra work. It will bo seen, therefore, that, even if he or she fail to win a prize, every aent will bo well paid for work done in our behalf. We wish to lay particular stress upon this fact, as our regular terms and premium otTcrs to agents aro exceedingly liberal. Another important point is ' that theso prizes will bo competed for by Local Agents only; the large subscription agencies, against whom a local agent can havo no chance, will bo barred from participation, hence a comparatively small club will be likely to win tho first prize. This -should encourage every ono of our readers to enter the lists. Oven ix months the best in tho year for newspaper work will elapse before tho prizes aro awarded, so that if only spare time be utilized in the canvass for subscribers a very handsome result can be achieved. Let us urge upon every reader to go to work at once. "We shall be glad to supply sample copies and subscription lists to all who will apply for them. A good plan would bo for every vt orker to s?nd 113 a list of names,to whom wo will send sample copies. After the parties have had time to examine the paper, thj apent can call upon them with every prospect of securing a subscription from each. ' : ' 1 With the addition of. Mrs. Hendricks' Popular History of Indiana," the work of securing subscribers will bo very easy. It will not bo necessary to send all tho subscribers at onetime; thay had better bo sent as fast as obtained, each agent numbering his names from ono up. If live names be sent, with the first order they should bo numbered from one" to fivu; the second order fhould commence with number six, and so on.
