Beuillon.-Here is a southern re- eeipt for a perticularly delicious ; A halt -shin of beef, a knuckle of veal, o11e! fowl, one peund a lean beef, one onion, half a eitrrot if large, or two or three small ones; two stelks of celery; one large tomato, or one-half cupful of juice from canned tomatoes, taut on the fire as early in the morn- ing as possible, the shin of tied, knuelrle of veal, and the fowl covered with cold water, and a little salt add- ed. Whert it comes to a boil, skim weil and, draw to the side of the range to peimi t it to boil very gently until evening. '.Che next day skim, off the fat and strain. Chop the lean beef very fine and mix with it the whiter; and shells of thr.ise eggs and the vege- tables oh.opped fine. These should all be mixed very thoroughly before they ire added to the stock, which should be quite jellied. Return the whole to the fire and stir until it ia near the boiling point; then draw again to a cooler part of the range, and_ 1,t it sim- mer slowly until it is perfectly clear. 11 must not boil up, and should simmer fully half an hour.. If it shonld boil up too suddenly, che..ek with a very lit- tle cold water. Finally strainthrough a cheesecloth, adding a little Woroes- tershire settee; if that flavor is liked, before straining. When wanted for use, heat slowly and serve very hot, adding sherry or white wine the very last thing, in the proportion of a pint' of either to three quarts of bonillon. Cheesecloth, by the way, kept for straining this or any other soup should never be washed with soap, as the soup will always be affected by this treatment. ' Cream -of -Beet Soup. -A cream-of-heet Soup is an attractive addition to the list of winter soups. 11 is particularly delicious when made with a quart of chicken stock, The beets are peeled and grated into the stock, in which they are afterwards boiled. They may, however, be boiled in a quart of water,. to whieh has been added a tablespoon- ful of beef extract, with raw potatoes and an onion. This liquid is strained, and to it is added a quart of hot milk, thickened with four tablespoon- fuls of cornstarch, and seasoned witty a few pepper corns and a blade of mace. Strain it through a fine sieve, adding a tablespoonful of butter just before is sent to the table. Serve with crusts, Candied "Sweets." - Candied sweet potatoes aro prepared by boiling them unlit they are thoroughly cooked, but not. mealy. They are then peeled and sliced. A shallow dish or tin is smear- ed with butter, and a layer of the sliced potatoes put in r over this, sugar is sprinkled, than another layer of potatoes and another of sugar with a few bits of butter on top. Some cooks adci a very little maple syrup just be- fore putting them in the oven. As the potatoes are cooked, they need only be left in a fairly hot oven long enough to brown and caramel slightly. Celery Sandwiches. Celery sand wiehes are best made when. eorobined with hard-boiled eggs. The celery should be shredded very fine and mix- ed with finely 'chopped whites and yelks of hard-boiled eggs, .1 he paste is theta formed of mayonnaise dressing. Spread between thin oblongs of brown bread, this. mixture is not only appe- tieing bnt. substantial. That is a moan.

The cohdltion of some flower gltraen,s3 is ;tome justification of the remark of one bey 3V180 declared that "sister's flower garden was the worst looking Spot aPouncl (lie taphole place. All the fall and, winter it was full of dead stalks and withered flosvers tind all the spring it was eovered with hrosh to keep Lite ehiekene out of the flower beds."

However, on every well ordered farni may be,found a sub- stitute that if rightly applied, will answer the purpose quite After the flowers have been killed by the frost, put up and carry away all dead etalks. Do thie immediately so that the garden will never present a desolate appearance. Some plants are Oat &Mit by a lighter frost than others, but remove them as soon as they are past their beauty period. Then visit the barnyarcl and get old, well rotted manure. That which is around the edges or underneath old piles of strawy manure is the best. Apply this to the garden beds, suiting the quantity to the condition of the, soil in the beds. If the soil is much im- poverished by a long period of flower growing without restoring the fertil- ity, add more than if it is rich in plant. food. It is not necessary to do this every year except for sweet peas and a. few other gross feed.ers. Dig this fertilizer into the earth with, a fork or similar inapInment. Since some authorities hold that if the earth is thrown up in clods and left, not .smoothing it down at all, but_let- ting the' winter freezing have a chance to mellow the, soil and unlock some of the fertility stored up in the Soil, it would ba best to follow their directions semewhat. Too many people leave this vsPork until spring, and then when hot July days come wonder why their sweet peas die with a seeming blight. The reason is that the manure if ap- plied in the spring, heats and ferments when hot weather comes, and. as sweet peas are very particular about having their feet cool they die down under such unfavorable conditions. Artother reason why this work should be done in the fall is because there is a longer time in which it may be done, while in the spring Ehe hurry of spring housework often causes the flower gar- den to be neglected. If it is clone in ,the fall and all preparations possible made for the next spring the prospects for the next summer's floral display are much enhanced. One may have an abundance of flowers all the long summer through by a careful, judi- cious selection of plants and a timely attention thereto, but if one once gets behind, then woe to the flower gar - POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Dealer,s and consumers frequently complain of butter as " strong" because it has white streaks, virhen perhaps it 88 freish from the churn; only the salt has not been properly worked in, Sometimes they think the white streaks ere due to milk in the butter' In fact the best butter that was ever churned witbe streaked if the salt is unevenly mixed. A friend' lately asked for directions for laying down butter. Some people have an idea that " laid down" butter, must be strong after itee6ing a vhile, but this is a mistake. 11 will not have the flavor of new butter certainly; but we have kept butter from fall to spring in good order. Butter may be spoiled an3rwhere be- tween, the pastureand the table, for all the way there are little points which go to make the difference between the poorest quality and the gilt-edged arti- cle. There are three essentials to good butter; a good cow, good feed, and a good dairywoman or man. A poor but- ter -maker can spoil the butter from the best cows, and those thtit have the best eare, even the milker, has a good deal 'to do with 11 Cows should have plenty of good mr and light, aneshould be kept clean; if the udder is foul it should be washed and wiped before milking; merefy brushing it is not enough, Of course all milk vessels should be kept 'clean and sweet and thie cream shoeld not stand long enough to get bitter before or tiDter skimming. Butter taken from the churn in granular form will take the s tIL MOrO evenly than if gathered into a lump, besides which the milk can ba more thoroughly separated. Tastes differ as to the amount of salt but this is not essential to the keeping tlualitie,s of butter, anywhea.e from one- half otuace or more will keep it if the milk is out of it. For laying dOWn,8. stone jar is as good as anything; press the layer down as solid as possible then sprinkle a litinclftit Of salt over to keep the next layer from sticking1.. • t1oth may be pul btwen e y ers but 't is n t essential Tile call now is for freehly•macle but- ter, and with the improved breeds of COWS, and winter calves, this is the most profitable part of farming in many localities. The 61d -time cow that made 5 pounds of butter per week and went dry three mcinths has gone by with many other worn out things, anti her place is filled by her betters. ' QUALITY OF MILK' ,There can be no doubt that itinong the great majority of farmers there is a strong 'belief hat the percentage of fat in the'milk is largely depend- ent upon the kinxi of food given to the animal. On the othar hand, all' sci- entifie and practical results -to follow a common ancl absurd distinction be- tween experiments conducted tit exper- iment stations and similar data col- lected elsewhere -have shown that so for as the percentage of tat in her milk is concerned, the cow is a law into bereelf, anti the kind- of food has little or no influence upon it; To put 11 1.11 another a -ay : Many people believe tha.t rich or poor milk may be prod.ue- la,nd, and do damage, his damag- ed neigbleela May not lteWfullY 18811 there.

A Frenchman. Discovers a Very iiasY :Munn of Making Money -warning Die co • lectors. A. sparrow% egg seems of little or no value, and Yet there is a man in Parte who can transform it into a, prize really worth having. Indeed, this geniatis gentleman makes a very hand- some income tlerough his skill in col - citing birds' eggs. As, to the legiti- macy of his business the reader can judge for hinaself. A few years ago the wideawake Par- isian wa,s a,ssistant in a provincial museum of natural history, and while there. he learned and saw a great deal which has since been of much use to him. So -much. indeed, did he learn that when he lost his position he went to Paris and determined to start in business for himseff. His apprentice- ship at the museum had shown him the value of birds' eggs, and he promptly decided to make a living by dealing in rare eggs. True, ..he bad only a very small collection of eggs with which to start business, but this as a trifling obstacle to a man of his versatile gen- 'ius. He knew that there were many collectors in various countries who were willing to 'pay fancy prices for eggs, and he resolved to supply their demands, no matter how extravagant they might be. Of cours.e, not having many rare eggs and lacking the necessary facili- ties for procuring them he couldnot supply them unless Re manufactured them., and this he did. For -example, if a collector wrote to him for a pen- guin's egg, he would make out of gyp- sum 'a shell eiactly resembling that ot a penguin's egg, and he would for- ward it to his oustemer, who would never dream that a p enguin had not 'laid it As a rUle, however, he uses the shell of SOUS COMMON EGG, his sole care being to eee that it 00r - responds in size with the desired egg. The eggs �f the emennon fly-e,ateher are very cheap, and by collaring them proPerly they can be made to resem- ble much costlier eggs. Again, a duck's egg costs very little, and yet our ingenious French gentlemen could easily transform it into an egg worth from forty to sixty francs. Pigeons' eggs are also very useful for a similar pur- pose, sinee they are exactly the earas size as many very ram ego'. Any one with a knowledge of chemistry coula ehange them so that the pig- eons thenaselves would' not recognize them, . Almost every' collector of birds' eggs desires to have one or two finely mark- ed 'nightingale's eggs, and is will- ing to pay a high price for deem.. •The Parisian dealer was well aware of this little weakness, and, larks being more abundant than nightingales, he found no difficulty in getting.1arks' ego and coloring them so that they were ex- actly like the genuine article as de- posited in remote places by the timor- ous nightingale. • It ean be seen this is a -very profittble business and a little considera- tion will show that there is not numb ask of detection. True, the -tricky me- thods of this Pariai an dealer have been brought to light, but the disc.overy was apparently made more by ebance than by any suspieion on the part of his customers that they were being swine died out of their money. The average collector, no matter whe- ther he 1818 01 passion fora.utographe, postage stamps, coins or birds' eggs, is inalined to be gullible, and this seems to be espeehtlly the ease with eollecaors Of egg's. They know that certain birds lay eggs of a cartel/a faze and color, and if they c an gel eggs that seem to be faultless in the', e respects thee, are eetisfied. The thought (het the coloring may not always be natural does not seem to enter their heads. . At any rate, such has been the experience of this Parisian dealer. Ilehas for- evarded speeimens of his skill to col- lectore. in till emintries and it does not appear that any of them ever discov- ered that he was a fraud. He eeafter, eollectors 18111 p101) 8513 be more e101- 1.10114 nix) u t }allying egge, especially from foreign dealers. --- • - -- LIBEL ON A FIRST-CLASS HOTEL.

GRADING DOWN. , It is a common thing to come across dairy farmers, who, commencing with it herd of native cows, have used first 10 Je.rsey sire, then a Short Horn, or Holstein, 'or Guernsey or seine other of the. well-known breeds. They do this under the mietaken notion that they ate going to 611*1 more profitable cow thereby. They are trying to get a lit- tle mare bill Ler through a Sersey, a lit- tle better flow of milk through the Hol- stein, a little more beef theough the Short }Torii, and a little more color in the milk through the G•iternsey.
