u; the question, and in in an easy one to antiwar. All that is necessary is to obtain some spawn at any reliable seed store (it is not expensive), break it into small pieces. my the aim of an egg and plant: it in lawn or meadow. The method of planting is simple and may be performed as fellown : Take a spade and lit: the and just sufficient to get the spawn under it : then let drop back to its lace and press it down firmly. so that the .wu will not show aigna of any diaturkance. Without further care An abundant supply of mushrooms can be obtained from August until November. In a favorable season on ordinary lawn or farmer's dooryard will yield sufficient for wintor'a u‘se.

Modern im. roVements in the modes of reserving vegetables have made this ve eteb e as neces- sit/y rather than a. luxury. ow can they be grown in Quantities at a trifling expense ,7; __ ._ _, A ‘ F Ityliule singular, to put it mildly, The spawn ehould not be put in until about July I, when the ground is warm and dry; if put in earlier it is liable to rot. The distsnce apart of the planting will de- pend npon circumstsnces ; if there is plenty of room, as in the puture lot, 6 to 8 feet spurt would be better. If room is limited put the pieces l; feet apart each way. One person can easily plant an axe lnhalr a day, and the cost of spawn will not he more than 83. Try it, as we have tried it, and get more delicious vegetubles than you can from the garden at ten times the cost. Last 58580]! we packed our surplus butter on the following plan and found when we sold in December, when the butter was un- packed for sale, it came out just as fresh and well tasted as it was when packed, ways the “DAiryman.” We adopted the follow- ing method: IlBouiivht new pork barrels. scalded them‘ out thoroughly with boiling water three difl'erett times, the last time covered the barrel with a cloth to keep in the steam. Let stand until the water cools, then rinse out the barrel with cold water, and the bar- rel is ready for use. We made a strong brine, by boiling, that would float an egg, skimmed off any scum that was on top. and let stand over night. In the morning the brine would be as clear as crystal. Butter was salted in the usual way, one ounce to the pound. Made into five or six pound rolls, wrapped carefully up in cheese cloth and tied with cotton wrapping twine to keep the cloth in place. the rolls were then placed into the barrels and covered with the brine and kept covered. The air ’ii’"n'et' "allowed to come in contact with it again until unpav-ked. And my opinion is, right here is where the secret lays in keeping the air excluded, no foul odori- can get to it. Some might think the butter would get too salty in such strong brin‘e. Not one hit of danger, if the butter has been properly handled before going in the barrel. We make our butter on the granular plan and press it solidly together. Welpacked sev- eral barrels in this way, and it was in the brine four or five months, and not a fault found to a pound of it. I have no doubt that butter packed in this way can he ship- ped to any market in the United Sh tea or Europe, if ordinary care is taken not tn let it lay outside, exposed to the hot sun. Butter can be packed in this way in firkins or in any vessel that will hold the brine. .selecting a. dairy cow, we question is generally asked, how much milk does she awe peg- day; but the more important: one, “ how [on does she continue t) give .that amount," is not always added. How many cows are there which do not give milk longer than ah'ont- six monthl- per year. They will give a large flow, but it does not last any length of time. Such an animal is not wanted in the dairy and should go to the butcher. An animal averaging say 50 unds ~eqnal to about ‘25 quartsâ€"per day, gr seven months will give during that year in round numbers about 10,500 pounds. Another giving but 40 pounds per dayâ€"or .11 gallons less- for ven months will during the year glve 1200.) pounds, a di‘frrence l 500 pounds in iavor of the now glVlng the It was per day. Considering the milk worth 8 cents per quart, will make a ditference of $2 50 per year. The same is true of the quality. In comparing two animals, the one may give a third more milk during a certain period than the other. but the difference in the quality may be such that the second will yield a third more butter than the first. These are queelious which interest every farmer more or less. and a careful teat of every animal upon the place may save much in the end. ” Elrven of the eighteen presidents of the United States elected by the people were tons of farmers. ‘ In teaching a young horse to hick give him the advantage of a down grade until he has learned what is required of him.

Touno Rot. ies stimulate {camera to keep more and bet- ter cows, Mr. Hale says in the “Cannon bicut Conant.” ~ No branch of farming is more profitable or conducted with less labor them orchard- ing when the produrts can be sold even at a. moderate price. Besides this, apple~trees may be planted on land too rough for root or grain culture, and high altitudes are more exempt from killing by frost than orchards in the Vllleya or lowlands. Feed your horses regularly three times daily, but never over-feed. Water before feeding but not while the horse is hot from work. Use the whip very little. and never when the animal shies or stumbles. Never leave a horse standing unhitched. It is the way to make them runaways. Do not storm and fret. Be quiet and kind, and the horse will be so too in most cases. The advice on the apple crop from Look- port, N. Y., are : The thousands of barrels of apples lying ready ior shipment in the buying centres of the great sections of New York State are beginning to move toward the Western markets. Apple-growers who hoped to realize a small fortune of their fruits wlll be sadly disep inted. Apples, apples everywhere I Fa 1 fruit brought a fair price. Then came the drop, and ncw buyers say that there is so much fruit that they could obtain all they want even at lower figures, but are ashamed to ask the farmer to take less. The King apples are mostly in demand, but the .crop is almost through. The remnant brought only $1.50 in Western New York. There seems to he a- scarcity in Greenings, if scarcity it could be called, an that variety will be nexu in demand. Thy will bring $1.20 to $1 308. barrel. Baldwins and Russets are so numerous that buyers do not seem anxious to touch them. In all probability they will bring less than 81 There seems to be no chance for the marketto improve, so great is the supply. The best kind of glory is that which is re flected from honesty. The one prudencé in life is concentration ; the one evil is dissipation. There is nothing more troublesome to a good mind than to do nothing. â€" 01 all the created comforts,‘iGod is the lender ; you are the borrower. not the owner. Each year, one vicious habit/{rooted out in time ought to make the worst man good. It is no vanity for a men to pride himself upon what he has honestly got and prudently uses. Let him who regrets the loss of time make proper use of that which is to come in the mmre. A good word is an easy obligation; but not to speak ill requires only our silence which costs us nothmg. We can finish nothing in this life; but we make a. beginning and bequeath a. noble ex- ample. 'l‘he wealth of man is the number of things which he loves and blesses, which he is loved and blessed‘by. Our happiness, am thinking beings, must depend on our being content to accept. only partial kn 'wledge. The Way to cure our prejudices is thisâ€" vhat every man should leu nlone those that he complains of in others, and examine his own. Hold fast by the present! Every situ- ationâ€"“nay. every momentâ€"is of Infinite valeu, for in is the representative of awhole eternity. The ideal, life, the life of full completions, haunts us all. We feel the thing we ought to be beating beneath the thing we are. Every Widespread error contains a con- cealled truth. That Is the point on which we must fasten if we wish to overthrow the error. They who call themselves men of the world, and pride themselves accordingly upon their knowledge. are of all men ‘hoae who know least of human nature. The grandest attribute” of our created minds, one that belongs to no other finite creature whatever, is that they have the gift of a growth everlasting. messed is the man who has the gift of making iriehda.
