The Farm and Household. ‘ SOILING MILCOH COWS, / Some of the advantages of soiling stock “are forcibly illustrated in the following bit of experience related in the New England Homestead : . “Let me recité-the experience and practice of a friend of mine. Coming into possession af about nine acres of land in the neighborhood of a good market, made by the demands of a large literary institution, he cast about as to wlat was to be dope. Twoeows and a horse was the stock in trade for neat cattle. Ile; was obliged to pay ,per season, men for pasturage, what “they thought it was worth, and at the same time it was nosmall job to drive his cows back and forth. . That determined him to keep his cows in the barn. The greatest trouble was the rapid accumulation of manure. "By good husbandry he. properly secured that, he kept feeding it to his crops.— Finding his erops increasing he added another cow. Another cow only made more manure, More manure husbanded in the same way made more. erops,

and the third year he added another cow. . Now began another serious difticulty. His barn was too small. Still, at the end of the fourth year he put in ahother cow and set himself to work to get up a new barn, and when I last s:?w him he had a mew barn with modern improvements of good size, & horse, a pair of eattle, and five cows, and yet he - had not thought of: byying more land, but wanted one. ‘more cow. Now people who do not want a large accumulation of manure and a gradual inc¢rease of erops, should not adopt that style. But it seems to r me that in our towns where homesteads are in small lots and not easily procured, no better course could be pursued than soiling the cows, and at the same time fattening the cows.” e e Mr. H. Sedwick ' stated. at a farmers meeting at Lowell, Mass.. in September, that farmers in his neighborhood were ‘engaged in producing milk for the New York market. Referring to the short feed of the fall of 1871, he added: “Our farmers all declare they will not go back on the old way. of feeding stoek. 'We cut up our straw and .everything available. Many of us have adopted the plan of steaming the food for our cattle, and we are satisfied, from the experiments we have made, that we save a third of our provender. by steaming it. As a sample .of what this manner of feeding stock will do, I will relate an instance of a voung man who, a year ago last spring, bought a farm of eiglity acres for $ll,000. The farm kept eleven cows, four or five yearlings; and a hose or two.— The young man took hold of that farin and immediately putin fourteen acres of sowed corn. He increased the stock to twenty-five cows, and kept them on twelve acres, feeding them on sowed corn, and also cutting his oats green. for food. ITis réceipts the first year were over $3,000. This year he summered on the samefarm twenty-seven cows, and he told me that his twentyseven cows would average him $lOO each 'hﬁm the profit on milk.

WARNING TO PURCHASERS OF FRUIT . TREES. , A short time ago, an individual came to one of our nurserymen, and told him that he had a large body of . land in Illinois. He said that he wanted some seedling peach: trees: (such as have failed to sprout the bud and the nurserymen burn as worthless), and bought a large quantity.— Then he wanted a large lot of inferior apple trees; such as are known among nurserymen as “scamps” — knotty, dwarfed, no aceount specimens, which are'the refuse of the nursery; being what is left after the salable trees are taken out of the rows. These also the nurserymen. commit to the flames.— He cared nothing whatever, as to the Kind of fruit; anything in:the shape of an apple tree would answer his purpose—anything that the nurserymen could not sell would do for his “Illinois farm.” Then he concluded that

he must have some pear trees, of a like cheap and inferior quality; and so on through the whole catalogue.— ITe hought out, in this manner, the refuse of a large nursery. Next, he informed the seller that he wanted enough ground to root, or bury his purchases, until such time as he could remove them to his Illinois farm.— Having supplied himself with'a number of nurseryman’s shipping tags, the plausible gentleman went his way. A short time thereaftér he came to claim his own, and went to work to bundle and ship his refuse trees to all parts of the country, having in the mean ‘time armed himself with a stolen catalogue of .a large nursery and gone through the country soliciting and obtaining orders for the most costly varieties of fruit trees. - These orders he filled indiseriminately out of the stock purchased here. It appears that the peach trees for which he- gave five cents he had, by gorgeous lying, sold to farmers for seventy-five cents each. The apple trees he had disposed of at a like advance. The swindling scoundrel had represented himself as the agent. of the nursery whose catalogue he exhibited, and found fools to believe him. As to his farm in Illinois it is to be hoped that the walls of the penitentiary enclose it. The farmers who wish to spend years in bringing to maturity a fruit orchard, and then find out that their trees are not worth cutting down, will continue to buy of strolling scoundrels. Those who have common prudence will know the one to whom they -trust the question of fruit for their old age. We trust that some sour apple tree is growing on which this enterprising _scamp. will swing.—New Albany Ledger-Standard.

-KIDNEY WORMS IN HOG CURED BY | CARBOLIC ACID. IHoping to obtain a little information through the columns of your valuable paper, and at the same time initerest some of yourreaders, I send the following: On the 20th day of February last 1 noticed that one of my hogs (a large Chester white sow) was a little weak in the neck.. On examining her I found that it was with great difficulty ‘that she raised her fore feet in trying to walk. ~As I have had very little experience in raising hogs, I at once consulted a number of my neighbors. They all pronounced it kidney worm, and, of course, each had a r,gm'edy. Some preseribed’ sodpsnds, others weak lye, copperas; blue vitriol,turpentine, ete. I gave each a fair trial, with no good result; and onr the 10th of March she laid flat on ‘her side, unable to turn over, and had not been on her feet for more than ten days, when my father, Dr. Brown, handed me a bottie of car-. bolic acid, and told me to use it as fol-! lows: Ten drops once a day in drink, then put thirty drops in one gill of hot vinegar, and bathe the back over the. kidneys once a day. Tgave her the first dose on Tuesday, March 18, On Sunday, the 23d, when I went out to feed she raised to her feet and took two or three steps to meet me, By Saturday, the 29th, she ‘was well ag ever, ; Wik o e _ The same remedy s equally good in treating mange. First, wash the hog well with soapsuds; then to one pint of lard, while hot add one ounce of varboﬁvmunﬁl itis cool; ggb the h? Wo %i‘!" ee times iwi#h' 8, and give yourself no uneasiness. whout the mange.—Am. Farm Journal,

- HOWTO PLUCK POULARY. .. - . - That _farmer, whose poultry is not troubled with the gapes, that has not ‘been visited with chicken cholera, knows what it is to prepare forty or fiftty pairs of fowl for market, since the days of scalding have been vetoed by the buyers. I have known persons on market day go out and kill a dozen or fifteen at'a time and bring them into the room, where there would be half a dozen women and boys pulling a few feathers at a time between the “thwinb and forefinger t 0 prevent teardng them. Now, for the benefit of such, I give our plan: Hang the fowl - by the feet- by a small cord ; then with a small knife give one cut across the upper jaw, opposite the corner of the mouth ; after the blood has stopped running in a stream, place the point of the knife in the groove in the upper part of the mouth, run the blade .up into the back part of the head, which will cause aquivering and twitching of the muscles; now is your time, for.every feather yields as if by magie, and there is no danger of tearing thé most tender «chick, and before it attempts to flap you can have him as bare as the day he came out of the egg. The wise ones may diseuss the reasons, I only | know the-effeets.—Cor. N. Y. Tribune.

A coRRESPONDENT of Hearth and ‘Home says: “How many people are there who really know how.to make a mustard plaster? Not one in & hundred, at the most, and yet mustard plasters are used in every family, and physicians prescribe their application, never telling anybody how to make them, for the simple reason that the doctors themselves do not know, as a rule. Tle ordinary way is to mix the mustard with water, tempering it with a little flour, but such a plaster as that makes is simply abominable. ' Before it has half done its work it begins to blister the patient and leaves him finally with a painful, flayed out spot, after having produced farless effect in a beneficial way than was intended.— Now a mustard plaster should mever make « blister at all. If a blister is wanted, there are .other glasters far better than mustard for the purpose. When you make a mustard plaster, then, use no water whatever, but mix the mustard with the white of an egg, and the result will -be a plaster which will “draw” perfectly, but will not produce a blister even upon the skin of an infant, no matter how long it is ~allowed to remain‘upon the part. For this we have the word of an old and eminent physician, as well -as our oWI experience.” : .

A BATH in hot sand is the latest discovery offered by. a therapeutist of London, an “infallible cure” for rheumatism.” He - claims that the advantage of this mode of treatment consists, especially, in the fact that it does not suppress perspiration like the hot water bath, but rather increasesit; and another advantage it possesses, is that it does not interfere with the respirations of the patient, as does the steam bath or Turkish bath. It is asserted that the body can endure the influence of such asbath for a much longer time, and a much higher temperature can also be applied. It can be used for infants, and permits of easy: application to a part or to the whole body. If this remedy shall prove efficacious for so serious an ailment, it will indeed be a boon to a large class of suffererssin all parts of the world. ,

A MEDICAL correspondent of an -English journal says that the advantages of asparagus are not sufficiently appreciated by those who suffer from rheumatism and gout. Slight cases of rheumatism are cured in a' few days by feeding on this delicious esculent; ~and more- chronic cases are much relieved, especially if the patient avoids acids. whether in food or beverage.— The Jerusalem artichoke has also a similar effect in relieving rheumatism. The heads may be eaten in the usual way, but tea made from the leaves of the stalk, and drank 3 times a day, is a certain remedy, though mot equally agreeable. :

. THE CONTENTS of a cesspool may be rendered comparatively inodorous by frequent additions of plaster, or ground unburned gypsum, or diluted oil of vitriol, or a solution of copperas. Probably the easiest way of using the contents for manure-is to throw fine earth into the vault until a semi-lig-uid mass is formed, "and -to scoop this out and deposit it into a quantity of dry soil gathered in readiness for it. The earth absorbs ‘all the liquid and all the gascious matter and if kept covered from rain a few days it will be in excellent condition to spread over meadows of fallows to'be prepared for fall crops. _

‘SAYs a late writer on forest culture at thé West: In Nebraska fine artificial forests diversify the once unbroken prairies; and we have seen soft maple so thrifty that after six years ten acres would supply a family forever. Black walnut eighteen years old, has yielded at the rate of forty cords of wood per acre. Cottonwood fifteen years old, are found that will yield a cord to the tree. . In one instance, a row Lombardy poplar, ten rods long and twenty years old, yielded twenty cords of wood—two cords to the rod. White willows set out as a hedge soon yielded ample returns of good fuel. i

THE FOLLOWING Prescription we find in the Southern Cultivator, and it is said to be efficacious in <cholera; “Glyceriné and water, each half-ounce; carbolic acid, ten “drops. When the first symptoms of the disease are apparent, give five drops, and repeat at intervals of twelve hours. A neighbor informed me that cholera was very destructive among his poultry, and at my. suggestion he tried gthe foregoing recipe. He reports that the progress of the disease was promptly arrested, and inl almost every case a cure was effected.

A cheerful message is wafted from Massachusetts by the Worcester Spy, which tells us: “The fact is that General Butler’s prospects are less favorable than they were two years ago,— May of those who then were[fxis supporters are now undeeeived as to his character, and permanently disaffected by his salary swindle; he will not this ‘year have the temperanece organization in his favor, and he has the burdén of his previous defeat. We will not assume to predict the future, but we can assure all whom it may concern that Magsachusetts is not prostrate at the f.ee@gf General Butler, and that nobody is half so much afraid of him as the well-meaning correspondents who have written such alarming reports of our helplesstiess and terror.” - A SXpRARion 18 1o bg on <l by the ' : g .‘ bV .f £ E : bl T S o Eastern Hemisphere to make observatost iR Bt G AN e Yot one. of P e BN, A ’*ﬂm it SRS nomical events ot heeentury ﬂnﬁ Prot.

_ The following items answer frequent inquiries made of the Clerk, and may be of general interest: . A will can be probated any time after the death of the testator, but no letters of executorship can be issued until, after ten days shall have expired from the date of probate. | Before a will can be admitted to probate it must be proven by one of the subscribing witnesses,or if they bedead or incompetent, then by proof of the hand-writing of the testator and subscribing witnesses. ' | The persons mentioned in a will as executors are enfitled to letters, except married women, minors, persons convicted of infamous crime, and persons deemed incompetent by reason of improvidence, habitual drunkenness, or other incapacity., : . ~'When no person is named in 'the “will as executor, the Court or the Clerk can appoint, on application, -any competent person, a citizen of the county, administrator with will annexed. ; Executors or administrators must, before receiving letters of executorship or administration, file bonds with sufficient resident freehold surety, in amount not less than twice the amount of personal propel;tg belonging to the estate, and where they are authorized to sell land, twice the value of thereal ‘estate. . : : " Letters of administration are issued by the Court when in session, or by the Clerk in vacation, for estates where there is no will left directing their disposition. These letters can be taken out upon the expiration of fifteen days after ,the decedent’s death, by, Ist, the widow; 2d, the next of kin; Bd, the largest creditor residing in the State. If none of these apply within thirty days after the death of the intestate, then the letters'can issue to any competent inhabitant of the coun-

by, € ‘Where an estate is left and no person authorized to take care of it, or any one is unlawfully meddling with it, special letters can issue, upon filing proper affidavit, at any time after the decedent’s death and before the expiration of the fifteen days. | - . Every executor or administrator shall, within thirty days after his appointment, give notice thereof by publication, and, within sixty days after appointment, shall make out a full inventory of the personal estate of the deceased, and hayve the sameappraised by two reputable householders of the neighborhood. The wearing apparel of the deceased, of his widow and chil- | dren, bibles and school books of the family. -and the provisions on hand, can be omitted in the inventory. The widow may select from the inventory, articles amounting to $5OO in value, which she can hold in her ‘'own name exempt from the debts of her deceased husband. ‘ ‘When an estate does not exceed $5OO. in value the widow can, by application to the Court, have the whole set off toher. < o 5 An inventory must be returned within thirty days after appraisement. As soon as the appraisement is com- . pleted, the administrator shall proceed to sell the personal estate at public sale, unless it shall appear to the interest of the estate to postpone the sale.: If so it shall be postponed until the next term of court. The Courtl§ may then extend the time.of -sale if deemed best, but cannot extend it longer than six months if creditors object. & : . : | Three weeks’ notice of sale must be given by publication. Property cannot be sold at private sale except by order of the Court, and then at not less than the appraised value. ' 1 - i “Letters, bonds, inventories, sale bills and reports, showing disposition of property, have all tobe recorded in the Clerk’s office.—Lagrange Standard.

: Summer Mornings. ) - Mr. Musselman, the editor of the Stark county Ledger, is a Pennsylvania Dutchman of the old stock, and religiously adheres to the ideas instilled into his mind iu early youth. Occasionally he treats his readers to a moral lecture in which he portrays in his own peculiar way follies to which the human family is heir. His latest effort in that direction is the following, which we take pleasure in commending to an attentive perusal on thepart of our lady readers: : : There is nothing more interesting :and beneficial to health and beauty than early rising, particularly on a summer morning. To get up in time to see the sun emerge from the eastern horizon, scattering his brilliant rays over the landscape, cheering up the. birds and causing them to sing their sweet melodies of praise to the great and good author of their, as well as’ .our own, existence, can’t be anything else than a great enjoyment to any one who knows how to appreciate it. If young lady, who has a well developed form, rosy cheeks and always in good health, you will not: find her among that class, who set up half the night, lay in bed half the day, until their mothers have done all the work, and never get up in time to see the sun rise or hear the birds sing. [This class of young ladies, or gentlemen either, who spend their nights in revelry and unwise indulgences, soon become old and deformed by diseases which they might have avoided had they acted more prudent, revelled less, and taken more interest in getting up early to exercise and breathe the morning 'air, One of the great reasons why country girls are generally more healthy and pretty than city girls is because they get up early, milk the cows, feed the chickens, and help their mothers do up the housework generally, giving them sufficient exercise and plenty of the sweet morning air. But this is not fashionable in our large cities, work and exercise with them is degrading, consequently theéir cheeks when divested of paint look more like an orange than a rose, and punyism is depicted in their whole expression, and premature death is generally the result. ‘(tive us the buxom country girl who gets up early, inhales the morning breeze, is not afraid to be seen at work, delights more in seeing flowers, trees, and all nature clothed in summer gar- | ments, than she does in reading some love sick novel. Such a girl will always have a warm heart and, smiling face, and if she ever gets married to a man, who has sense enough to appreciate her sweetness, energy, enterprise, independence and wisdom, happiness must be the result. =

A Simple Preventive Against Chol~ 5 era. [To the Editor of the Qourier-Jonrnal.] It is reported that Asiatic cholera is in Louisville and other places. If this be true, use sulphur in your socks. A half teaspoonful in each sock every morning is enough. This will charge your system with sulphurated hydrogen, which Dr, Herring—high authority with homeopaths—says is a bar to ‘cholera, as vou'can see in his medical - work published .twenty years ago.— ‘Many used it as above in Bt.
