Farm and Household.
PouJtry iR Large Members. Tmi /x>«foA JdUM lately had in article on the foiluresthat seemed to have universally occurred fa attempts to keep fowls in large numbers. In conclusion it are two reasons for this inevitable result; ote is, that when a large number of f iwls are crowded together or kept in one p'ace, the ground becomes tainted with manure, snd disease invariably breaks out. This is more particularly true of chickens, for in every attempt to rear a large number in a confined space, the mortality is excessive. The employment of an incabator in this climate will always be found a failure, for thia simple reason that it is impossible to rear the chickens when they have been hatched. Tbe hatching process is sufficiently easy ; but chickens are of no value whatever without you have hers to brood them. The only mahner fa which an incubator can be usefully employed is by hatching an extra number of eggs so as to give each hen a full brood of chickens. Used in this way we have known small incubators very serviceable; but when employed to hatch chickens that are to be reared by artificial mothers, we have never veen them used with advantage.
Changing Clothing.
• Many persons lose life every year by an injudicious change of clothing, and the principles involved need repetition almost every year. If clothing is to be dimin ished, it should be done in the morning, when first dressing. Additional clothing may be put on at any time. In Northern States the under garments should not be changed for those less heavysooner than the middle of May ; for even in June a fire is very comfortable sometimes in a New York parlor. Woolen flannel ought to be worn next the person, by all, during the whole year, but a thinner material may be worn after the first of June. A bluing fire should be kept in every family room until ten in the morning, and rekindled again an hour before etin-down, up to the first week in Jdne ana from the first day of October. Particular and tidy housekeepers, by arranging their fire-placee for the summer too early, oftentimes put whole family to serious discomfort, and’emlano'er health by exposing them to sit ia jphi Jiuess for several hours every mornfog, writing for the weather to moderate, rather than have the fireplace or grate all blackened up; that is, rather than be put to the trouble of another fixing up for the summer, they expose the children to croup and the bld folks to inflammation of the lungs. The old and the young delight in warmth; it is to them the greatest luxury. Half the diseases of humanity would te swept from existence if the human body were kept comfortably warm all the time. The discomfort of cold feet, or of a chilly room, many have experienced to their sorrow; they make the mind peevish and fretful while they expose the body to colds and inflammations which often destroy it in less than a week. — HM’» Journal of Health.
Clotted Cream.
An American visitor to the celebrated dairies in Devonshire describes tbe process of making “clotted cream,” a wellknown English' delicacy. It has a pecu - liarly pleasant taste, ana is largely: used, with sugar as dressing, for fresh fruit, puddings, and especially for the famous goosebexey pie .- “The milk is strained in large, deep pans, and.pukin the dairw-house; where it is left from eight to ten Hours. It is then taken outhnd scalded by placing the pan in an iron skillet, partially filled with wa ter, upon the jange. At the bottom of the skillet there is a grate oh which the pan rests, so as to prevent burning or scorchi»g. “ The miik is slowly heated to near the boiling point, or until the cream begins to show a decidedly marked circle or ‘ crinkle ’ around the outer edges; and when the first bubble ra’ses the surface of the cream it must be immediately removed. “ Some experience is necetsary in applying the heat to have it just right; otherwise the cream is snoiled When properly scalded, the ifo'k is removed to the dairy, where it stands sum twelve to twenty four hours, according to the condition of the weather, where the cream is in a thick- compact mass, an inch or more deep. It is then divided with a knife into squares of convenient size, and removed with a skimmer.”
How to Make Toast.
The philosophy of making toast should be understood in order to make it well. It is not merely in a brown outside that good toast consists, though this is the great distinguishing point,: and is of benefit. There is something relishable in a fine brown crust, whetner of toast or in the loaf. It is formed by the changing of the starch Into dextrine or gum, and hence the odor or flavor of toast and of fresh-baked bread. — r We then desire to get this flavor. But more. The inside of the slice is changed from stale to fresh or new bread. This in consequence of the steam which is engen dered by the heat, inflating the moisture, and expelling it from the gluten, driving it into the starch which has assumed a hard or glassy appearance, and converts it into mucilage again. In this state, hot from the fire, it should be eaten,.whether softened on the outside with cream, or taken dry with butter. There is in toast a great advantage over fresh-baked bread in point of health. The germs of ferment die in old bread, especially if permitted to become dry er kept long. lu new bread the heat, 212®, is not sufficient to destroy the spores. Hence, in toast, you eat new bread without the evil attending the newly-baked loaf. Heat evaporates moisture, in bread as well as elsewhere. The moisture therefore that escapes from toast leaves the bread light and soft and porous' inside, very delicate. Set aside, like bread, it will soon cool, the gluten reabsorb moisture, leaving the starch to dry and stiffen' again. And Boussingault, in repeated experiments^found that this change, from light to stale bread, may go on almost indefinitely with no other change or injury, to the bread, so that old bread may be almost as good as new, and repeatedly. In toasting, Soy. r’s rule is probably the best—at least we find it so. First,, warm yoor bread well, by ■ehanging' -die sides of the slice. When well heated through, brown as is desired. Tbere should/be rather little than much browning, and the slices, should be quite thin, say a quarter to three-eigi sos an inch; no more. ,But do not sco i, avoid that in all cises. Thepbilosoph" in brown'ng is to takfc your time, ana not intercut your efforts till you are d< Bst accumulates, keep in a' do'not longer than M i as sooh -us 'possible, .and kt- hi Wanted to be used at > plaiT of to*sfc is a rarity, and ‘iff For few tbints those who are accustomed’ meal It islight, dt-’ geetiWe, and ‘relisha ole,' and is net very expensive.

He came upon a large estate ; there were many laborers and many teams at work—or rather they were just quitting work. The proprietor was berating his hired man because he had left the hempen traces of the harness exposed to the rain; the traces had become hard and stiff, and were injured for present use at least. The collector, hearing the reprimand, became down hearted, and fe ired that from such a close man as this seemed to be nothing could be obtained for charity. He ventured, however, to make his errand known, and great Was his surprise to receives very large donation.” Waste brings want; economy, thrift and the means of doing good. To Raise Blackberries.—A writer in tbd Practical Fanner says : “To insure good crops requires close attention; the canes should be kept thin and well headed back; and on poor land an occasional dressing of manure, muck or fertilizers of some kind, adds to the quantity and quality of the fruit. There is no likelihood of the market being overstocked with the fruit, as it pays well to make it into wine. Three quarts of blackberries and three pounds of sugar, with the addition of a little water, will make a gallon of wine , highly recommended for its medicinal properties, worth 12 per gallon while new; and its value increases with age. All the poor berries, those that are too ripe to ship to market, may be properly converted into wine at home; and only the finest and most perfect fruit sent to market, which Will always command a fair price.” An exchange says a superb crop of potatoes was raised in the Blue Ridge region of Virginia in this wise : “ The soil was a sandy Ipam, covered with a thick sod of many yeais’standing. This sod was turned over four inches deep, with a heavy threehorse bar shear plow. The seed was dropped in every other farrow, and covered by the inverted sod of the succeeding furrow. As soon as the planting was finished, light harrows '"were run over the surface until it was level and smooth. After the potatoes were well up, another harrowing was given, and then one more working-with cultivators made as fine a crop as we ever saw. Now, here was a process differing very materially from that laid down as the proper one to be pursued in the cultivation qf -potatoes. We give it. heie, not as worthy of imitation, but simply as an agricultural fact of more or less value. The area cultivated was a largeone—fifty acres—and time was wanting to give the ground a thorough preparation, The secret of success probablv, in this instance, was a loose bed, formea by the decaying sod, and an uncommonly good season. Fifty bushels of gypsum was the only manure used.” ' Bee Keeping.—A correspondent of the California Farmer thinks that every owner of a rural home ought to have a few swarms of honey-makers, and he gives the fidlowing suggestions as to where they should be kept and how managed : “ First, on dry soil, and, if convenient, in some quiet spot away from the busy routine of the domestic circle. It should be shaded by trees to relieve the little occupants from the rays of the burn.ing sun, and shield them from too much exposure to strong winds The best bee house that was ever used is the shade of a tree and a good hive. The hive should always face the south east if posssible, so your bees get the morning sun, and fewer storms come from that direction. Let it be located where it can be readily seen in swarming time ft om some door «r Window, from the kitchen if possible, so that the women may give the alarm. The grass should be kept short by occasional cutting All ant-hills in the- immediate neighborhood of the apiary should be destroyed, as also spider-webs and the like. I recommend the planting of trees, whete you are not already favored with them, and setting one or two hives under each tree, always avoiding a bee-house or room, as there is no place like the open air.”
The Economy of Taking Food in Natural Proportions.
By something like a telegraphic arrangcmenl the stomach is kept informed of the wants of every'Organ and function; and, through the appetite, a demand is made for nitrates for muscular strength, or carbonates for animal heat, or ohosphates lor bones, and nertes, and braid, until all are supplied. And if we like food in its, natural state, so as to supply all these demands at the same time, the appetite is satisfied without waste material. For example, take unbolted wheat bread and milk, containing, as they both do, a due proportion of el»ments for muscle, animal heat, and: brains. The appetite is satisfied when just enough food p to*” supply his ten ounces of cattonates and two and a half ounces of nitrates, for hours’' supply. But suppose ho takea/itratead, white flour bread and but ter. Whenhe has taken'the ten ounces of carbonates whitll the system inquires for ■the meal, he has received lees than onequarter of the mc&wary nittates andphoe ■ phases, Mdnnt.il these principles are suppHed'* the appetite demands' more l rooH; and if he> attempts-< to satisfy these demands the - same food, he mult take four time* as much of carbcaatea m are heeded, withe ra>

And thus, b/ our daily habit of using, iqith arUcles already having their nararaljproportion of carbonates, butter, sugar ana fine flour, as we do in cakes, pastry, coqfeqUonery, tweet fiancee, etc., we waste three quarters of all these expensive articles. t -' Ulth less than half ute expenae that is thus wasted on these articles, to say nothing of the doctors bills, and foes of time occasioned by* inflapunatory diseases, he might purchase all the choice fruit and vegetables, and meats necessary to give him the highest gustatory pleasures of which hell capable; which would, at the* same time, save his doctor’s bills and his loss of .time from afokneaa.

As the demand f»« the celebrated oju has steadily increased, coming from almost every country on the globe, the company have added new machinery and facilities for manufacture which enable them to produce the best instruments they have ever made, at reduced cost. It Is their fixed policy to sell always at the smallest remunerative profit, and they have accordingly recently reduced their prices, and are said to be now selling some styles of organs at considerably less than the actual cost of manufacture of similar Instruments, to makers not having such facilities. Another peculiarity in the mode of doing business adopted by this company is, they print in their circulars their lowest prices, which are invariable, and alike to all.
Common Sense
Roles the mass of the people, whatever the misnamed and misanthropic philosophers may say to the contrary. Show them a good thing, let Its merits be clearly demonstrated, and they will not hesitate to give-It their most cordial patronage. The masses have already ratified the judgment of a physician concerning the virtues of HOSTETTER’S BITTERS, as may be seen in the immense quantities of this medicine that are annually sold in every section of the land. It is now recognised as greatly superior to all other remedies yet devised for diseases of the digestive organs, such as diarrheas, dysentery, dyspepsia, and for the various fevers that arise from derangement of those portions of the system. Hoetetter's name Is rapidly becoming a household word from Maine to Texas, from the shores of the Atlantic to the Pacific. These celebrated STOMACH BITTERS have doubtless created as much sensation In the community for their remarkable cures as any other mediqine extant. It is a fact that in the minds of many persona a prejudice exists against what are called patent medicines; but why should this prevent you resorting loan article that has such an array of testimony-to support it. as HOB- - PER’S STOMACH BITTERS. Physicians prescribe it; why should you discard it! Judges, usually considered men of talent, have and do use it in their families; why should you reject It! Let not tour prejudice usnrnyour reason, to the everlasting injury of your health. It is the only preparation of the kind that is reliable in ail cases, and it is therefore worthy of the consideration of the afflicted. The BITTERS are pleasant to the taate, agreeable in their effects, and altogether valuable as a todlc or remedy for indigestion.
