The Huron Expositor, 1875-06-18, Page 6s imisminaniiimmammismommer FarCl Notes. Wheat is ripening rapidly in Texas, and Dallas County fariaers will soon commence harvesting. --A throe -fourth -inch round belt, run- ning in properly grooved pulleys, will convey the same power as a two-inch flat belt. —Of the 2,000,000 shoe eyelets daily used in the United States and Canada, nearly one-half are manufactured by one firm in ,South Abington, Mass. They employ about thirty hands in the busi- ness, —•AA dark houseis always an unhealthy, an ill -aired house and a dirty house. Want of light stops growth and promotes scrofula, rickets, &c., among the child- ren. People lose their health in the dark house ; and if they become ill they'can- not get well in it. --A circular saw requires one horse power for every seventy feet of lumber• cut per hour. . Periphery of the saw should run 6,000 feetper minute. A thirty -home power driving a saw of four feet diameter 500 revolutions per minute will cut 2,000 feet of barrels in an.hour, when in good order. ----A country youth who desired - to know how to became rich sent a quarter in answer to an advertisement, and. re- ceived the following, valuable recipe : "Increase your receipts and decrease your expenditures. Work` 18 hours a day, and live on hash and oat -meal L..To raisea colt by hand : Ifthe colt -is Very young and a suckling, it must be taught to dunk milk just as a calf usual• ly is _. Sweet cow's milk only should be given,'as freshly drawn as possible. The colt may be gradually taught to eat a little tender grass, finely -cut new clover hay, with some boiled oat -meal or linseed tea mixed with it, As soon as the colt is able to eat well, hay and chopped oats with linseed mealand wheat bran may be given, The difficulty is in teaching the young creature to drink, and per - has a ,tin can, with a long spout having a cloth • tied around it will be found use- ful for it to suck milk from until it learns to drink. if diarrhoea occurs, a little prepared chalk should be given in the milk or food. 'l'he, following horse talk is, at least, rational and worthy of consideration : "Suppose you were in the harness, .and I were in the wagon, I had the whip and you the traces, what an ardent advocate ou would be for kindness to the irra- tional creation l Do not let the black- smith drive the nail into the quick when he shoes me, or burn my fetlocks with a hot file, Do not mistake the dead eye'. that nature put on my foreleg for a wart to be extinguished, Do not cut off my tail short in fly -time, Keep the north wind out of our stables. Care for us at some other time then during the epi - wages, iso that we niay see your kindness is not selfish. My dear friends our inter- ests are mutual. I am a silent partner in your business. Under my sound hoof its the diamond of national prosperity. Beyond my nostril the world's progress may not go. With thrift and wealth and comfort, I daily race neck and neck; Be kind to me, if you want me to be useful to you,,, Use_fui Recipes for the Shop, th . Household and the Farm. According to Fielding, a heauti orange yellow tone, much admired in cheat at the Vienna Exhibition, may imparted to oak wood by rubbing it in warm ronin with a certain mixture, un it. acquires a dull polish, and then co ins it, after an hour, with thin polis and repeating the coating of polish improve the depth and brilliancy of t: tone. The ingredients for the rubhi mixture are about three ounces tallow three-quarter ounce wax, and one pin turpentine, mixed by heating togethe stirring. The following is said to he all there i of the cook's secret for producing thos world renowned potatoes served a Moon's Lake House, Saratoga Springs every summer Peel good-sized potatoes and slice them as evenly as possible drop them into ice water. Have a ket tle of lard, as for fried. cakes, and ter y hot. Put a few at a time into a towel, shake them about to dry there, and then drop into, the hot lard. Stir them occa- stofrally, and when of a light brown take them out with a skunmer, If properly done, they will not be at all greasy, but crisp without and mealy within,. A French journal says that, of the score of tire -proof corn;pbsitions that have been brought forward within as many years past, there is scarcely one that possesses superior, or even equal adap- tation, to the purpose, to the following : Dissolve in cold water as much pearl ash as it is capable of holding in solution, and wash or daub with it all the boards, wainscoting, timber, &e.; then, diluting the same liquid with a little water, add to it such a portion of fine yellow clay as will make the mixture of the consis- tence of common paint, and then stir in I a small quantity of paper hangers' floiir paste to combine both the other sub- stances. (rive three coats of this rnix ture,. and when dry apply the following composition'; Put into a pot equal quan- tities uan- tities of finely pulverized iron filings, brickdust and ases, pour over there size or glue Svater, set the whole near a lire, and, when.' arin, stir them well together.

Mr. James Hinton, in his Phl,$log,,, affirms that the passage of the ear does not require cleauing by us. Nature un- dertakes that task, ami in the healthy state fulfils it perfectly. Her means for cleansing the ear is the wax, which dries up into thin scales, and peels -off and falls away imperceptibly.. In health the pas- sage of the ear is never dirty, but an at- tempt to clean it will infallibly make it so. Washing the ear oat with soap and water is bad ; it .keeps, the �s-ax moist when} it aught to become dry and scaly, and Makes'et absorb dist. ]Jut the most hurtful thilig is the introduction of the corner of a towel screwed up and twisted around, This proceeding irritates the passage,. and presses down tI'e wax and tiakee of skirl upon the membrane of the tympanum, producing pain and $i iflam. ration and deafness. `Washing should only extend to the outer surface, as far as th finger can reach.
