So long ago as 1867 the comm

Society visited 140 farms end
steam culture; and in the town
Leeds there is now a 'very lar
establishthent wholly devoted to t
manufacture of steam-ploa s, whi
at the present time, is very busi
occupied in filling orders by co
parties and private individuals.
The public hiring fairs of Engla d
are denounced by the better elites
there, especially by social reforme
as productive of the motel conta
ination of both sexes. Young En
lish men and women meet, in a re r-
ket Pace, those who desire to e
ploy them. There •is higgling f r
rime. The shrewd employer invi

correcting_the, evils Of the prese t

four years ago'arid the farmers a e
saying that three or even two mo e
such crops as were hall in 187
-1871 and' 1872- would bring- the r
great staple to 10 cents and the r
farms• to $15 to $20 per acre, or le

gages now covering them. Freigh
to Boston are 80 cente per 1 0

ought to add weight to the argument
against risking the whole of one fo
tune in a single ship. The West-

Removing Stains.
If you have been pickling o
handling any acid fruit, and hay
stained your hands, wash them
clear water, wipe them lightly, an
while they are yet' moist strike
match and shut your hands aroun 1
it so as to catch the smoke, and th
stains will disappear.
If you have stained your musli
or gingham dress or your whit
pants with berries, before wettin
with anything else, pour boiling w
ter' through the stains and they "wil
ditiappear. Before fruit-juiee dri
it can often be removed by cold w
ter, using a sponge and towel if ne
emery. Rubbing. the fingers wi
the inside of the paringa of apple

Ink also, if washed out or soppe
up from the carpet with cold wate
immediately when it is spilt, can b
almost entirely removed.--Hecirt

Get Ready for Winter.
If stones are placed in, large heaps
they can be drawn where they ar
wanted for fences or other purpose
in winter while the snow is- on th
ground. Large atones should
dated with a crowbar, and a smal
Istone or piece of wood • put undet
them, to keep them off the ground
.otherwise they will freeze to th
earth, and can not be removed with
-out great labor. Gravel for road
should be screened se as to remby
i.the sand. It can then be drawn or
3sleighs in winter, and much labor
will be seared. One load of screened
:gravel is worth three bads mixed
,with earth". There is ',dirt enotigh
