If dry before using, treat first with cold water. "When the temperature of the churn is reduced to that of the prepared cream it is ready for use. Decide the tem- perature of cream for churning according Lo that of the surrounding air. The follow- ing table may be safely adopted: Temperature of air. Temperature of cream. , 66° 55° CA° 56° 620 5i 60 0 58 58 59 0 tiO To heat the cream place vessel containing it in het water and stir continually so as to warm equally. Be very careful not to warm it too much, or the butter a -ill be in- jured, and the water into which the vessel of cream is plunged should not be more than 100 ° F. At any time when the temperature of the air is above 55 ° take that of the cream over night, and if above 60° cool it by the best means at com- mand.. In a covered can it may be hung in the well, or it may be placed in a tub of cold water, or in. a dry but cool cellar. It is better to reduce the temperature to a point too low for the purpose (for it can be easily warmed again) than to have it even a few degrees too warm when required for churning. If the cream is too thick for free churning it may be corrected by adding water, which, carefully mingled with it, will help in reducing the temperature, if that is necessary. Cream churns best when yielding 3 lbs. of butter to every gallon. he thermometer (without which dairy work cannot be properly carried on) should be of glass, as most easy to keep clean. It is well to have a good and reliable instru- ment of the ordinary type hanging in the dairy, to register the changes in the tem- perature. of the air, and to serve as a stand- ard for the glass instruments used with the cream. Having such, do nothing by guess- work ; note the conditions affecting your work; do notjudge by the season, but only by the temperature of the air. -Farm and A Tree Setter. It is made of a good piece of 1x3 inch pine sawed into proportions indicated and hinged together. A notch I inch deep is cut in the end of the shorter piece. Strong pegs are driven, through inch holes bored in the longer piece and extended 5 inches be- low. One peg is con- tinued above the board 2 feet for a handle. The land for the orchard is previously measured off and a small stake driven in each place where a tree is to,be set. The not& of the setter is placed against the stake and the pegs push- ed into the ground. Then the shore end is raised up and the hole dug. The end is then let down and the tree placed itt posi- tion in the ooteh and the planting complet- ed. The trees can be set LFIle to a line and will occupy the same position as the stake did. About Corn -Plan ti The old system of planting corn in hill with rows each way is going out of foshion. In drills each stalk has better chance than, when three, four .or five are compacted within space of a few inches. Still if the ground is rough with stones or stumps, and especially if it is weedy, the hill method is preferable, as it gives opportunity tor doing most of the work with the horse. It may be put down as a rule that unless the land is smooth enough to harrow, and thus kill the small -weeds in the hill both before and after the corn is up, the drill system will not pay. After two or three thorough hanrowings aver the entire surface, a culti- vator through the rows one way will clean out all weeds. The largest crops have been grown this way, the chief extra labor be- ing in the cost of harvesting, and that mainly because there was more corn and stalks to be harvested. A Cheese -Making- Advantage. A correspondent of Farm and Horne says: A great advaatoge in cheese -making is that cheese is made from summer milk. All dairy men possessed of cheap pasture lands realize that stunmer milk doesn't cost as much as winter milk, and that a business which turns summer milk to profitable ac- count without necessitating attention to winter milk is an advantage. In this work there ie no call for all -the -year-round milk; the object is to get summer milk. In my own herd the cost of keeping a good cow for winter milk with food at niarket value is $50 to $55 a year. The same cow run for summer ntilk is kept for SIO to $15 less. This leaves quite a margin for difference in the year's income without interfering with the profit. A Help to Beginners. Malty beginners in farming find it a. great advantage to take contracts for growing certain kinds of seeds. These are always the varieties moat easily grown, and the eeed man can usually hire some one to grow theta for him cheaper than he can grow them ou his owe more valuable grounds. It is thus that oats, barley, wheat, rye and potatoes are provided for the largest seed men. They fur -Isiah the seed, and time in - sate its freedorn from mixing with other kinds. They also require that ell the pro- duct shall Le disposed of to theta at some- thing above the usual market price. Hence it is a paying operation for both parties, as bargains ought always to be. - - Whr arritardta Are Unproductive. There is not _much doubt that lack of available mineral food is the main reason why many en -bards are unproductive and trees dr, not live as long as they did in the early settlement of the country. Thc: route have their limits- To compel them to bear . fruit year after year without bringing extra " food within their reach would be like tying a cow to a stake and leaving her, with the expectatioa that else would thrive. It, is only a. queetiun of time for her to -starve. cilie tree does not absolutely die.. The winds come along and furnish carbon for leaves and a little yearly vi ood growth. For fruit there must. be something more. - - - - The Potato, Tuber Moth..

"When the cat is away the mice will play." So When the birds are scarce the insects abound, sometimes to our dis- comfort, and. even dismay. I do not wish here to make any plea for the protec- tion of birds o the grounds of beauty of their form ea coloring, or the sweetness of their 'songs, but upon ithe purely utili- tarian basis of guardians of crops from the destruetive workings ot the various injuri- ous inseate. Somebirds do not eat in- sects, but the list is small. Audubon has stated that a woodcock will eat its own weight of insects in a day. The coalmen chipping sparrow destroys many a tent caterpillar Moth. Birds have been con- stantly on the decrease, from the destruc- tica of the forests and other more direct causes due to man, while, on the other hand, the insects have steadily increased. There seem to be an eternal hatred ot birds born with some boys, which it it painful to see in its varied manifestations. The stonino of old birds, robbing their nests, and killing the young, is to be strongly coodetnned. " Kindness to our feathered friends must, come largely from home and school training. Parent and teacher can do much in this regard. -1)r. 13. D. Hal- stead, in ...A.merican Agriculturist. An Economical Manger'. Horses that are bad about wasting their feed should have a manger _a r ranged something like this one. With the man- ger boarded, as in Fig. 1, leaving just otc arooni enough for easy accesss to the feed, what grain is dropped the horse will find again. The -upright boards ehould be nailed to the manger on its inner side. T h e guard will prevent waste. This consists of an -8 in. board nail- ed to the manger, as in Fig. 2 at A. It will eatch anything that is thrown up under it, and food drop- ped on it will roll back. Birds vs. Inserts. In nature there is a general overruling law which is roughly stated in the eoranion saying, "The weakest men go to the wall," the action of which is very self-evident to those who have given much attention to the study of birds and insects. It is only when man so modifies nature that the law does not have free action that the balance is de- stroyed, and evil results. Insects, as well as the birds. doubtless 11 $3.VA tbair Sheep Washing. The old practice of washing sheep to clean out the accumulated dirt from their wool is going out of faelsion. It, Was unhealthy alike for workman and for the sheep. The wool has always to be scoured after ite -oes from the farmer's hand's, and the dirt, Laken out by washing ea the sheep's hack is the (aeiest go: rid of in the scouring process. Where :dices) take cold by being washed the quality of the wool -is 'injured_ as what is called cold is really a fever, makinffthe skin perched sand dry, and injuring whatever - ete-toee reran it. FARMING IN FOREIGN_ LANDS.. a Motes and Comments of What Farmers are Doing the World Over. There are 223 beet -sugar factories iu European Russia. A hop -picking machine has been invented in Australia. New Zealand flax is being successfully grown on the skaores. The -cotton industry is attracting atten- ticm in Queensland. (inc out of every seven land -owners in Great Britain is a woman. In Kent, England, 30,000 people are en- gaged in hop -picking during the season. In Germany, budding and grafting are taught in taeouttional country schools. Rust has done some damage to wheat in Tasmania, owing to wet weather. Sixty American Merino sheep have re- cently been shipped, via London, to Syd- ney. The export fruit trade of Jamaica in- creased from $250,000 in 1880 to $5,000,000 in 1890. Tomato rot is successfully kept in check in India by the use ef Bordeaux mixture. Great Britain has 150,000 acres of orchard, an increase of 50,000 acres within 20 years. In alanchooria, China, are large dog farms, the dogs being fed for the value of the skins. In Mauritius there are over 250,000 In- dians, most of whom -are coolies working on the sugar estates. Cape Colony possesses 1,500,000 head of cattle, 14,500,000 sheep, 5,200,000 goats, 300,000 horses, 65,000 mules and 150,000 ostriches. Large and deep peat beds exist in the Falkland Islands. They are tormed eotire- lv of roots and stems of a species of. crow - berry. The Victorian government proposes to adopt a system whereby all butter export- ed will bear a government brand on the packages. Choice poultry is being imported into Natal, especially Light Brahmas, Indian and Pile game. Black Spanish and Silver Dorkings. Exports - of coal from New South Wales were valued at 56,596,455 in 1889, and at $4,935,865 in 1890. The decrease was due to the great strike. A Ceylon tea grower has been investigat- ing Southern California, in regard to its ad- aptability for tea eulture, and was favor- ably impressed. In Newfoundland, the pine, spruce, birch, juniper, aspen, mountain ash and larch fur- nish plenty of timber for the lumber trade and for shipbuilding. French makers of Gruyere cheese feel the competition from importations of the same grade of cheese manutactured in Can- ada and the United States. The vineyards along the border between Victoria and New South IN ales were badly frost-bitten, and the vintage of 1892 will be materially reduced. The most important industries of Cape Colony are diamond and copper mining, wool growing andl ostrich farming. Wool growing is the most important. Malta is famous for its flowers, and its fauna is almost entirely European. The chief products are cotton, corn, oranges, melons, potatoes, figs and grapes. Ceylon coffee used to bring the highest price in the London market, but a fungus ruined the coffee crops which are now super- seded by tea plantations. Agriculture occupies the attention of the bulk of the population in Cyprus, the chief products being grain, locust beans, sesame, cotton, olives, silk, fruit and wine. Grass seed is & nuisance in parts of New South Wales. It is injurious to the mouths of horses and cattle, and has destroyed the first crop of lucern. the worse seed is that of the barley grass. children, do heed my advice. " Ursa your will on the side of right. Sty," I will obey God; I will do the thing I know is right." I know lovely girls, lovely to look at, who hve had all the advantages that wealth and e ucation could give them, yet with wills so weak that in the presence of temptation a ill never do trwill that says, "No, I will yield. You mut not ; you mint have wrong." And now is the time to form the habit. I have been so sick at heart of late in finding wrong habits formed, and they have become like iron, so that when I said: 't Promise me that you will not do the thing your conscience tells you is wrong," the sad answer has come: " I can promise, , but I know I shall break it." It really seems to inc we have yet to wake up, at least Many have,to the fearful power,or glorious power, of habit. Sowing and reaping -ab, what shall the harvest be 2.

Pleasant Surprises All Round. .Some surprises, not down on the bills, weft for both bride and groom as the play gees on. He learns that, as a builder of - plain, substantial pie, whereof the upper c 'tut is callous and the lower strata imper- v.ous to the action of heat, she is original beth in deeign and execution. She is sur- prised to learn that he isn't so good a mana- ger as she thought, aud wonders how he managed to get his salary raised every year by the house, forgetting that all this is a new business to him. He discovers that the sweetest tempered little woman in the world carries a concealed temper on her per- son, not noticing how sorely and in how rrany new ways she is daily under trial. She is surprised to note that she is, little by 'llttle, becoming the waiter of the estab- lishment, and not the head waiter, either. She remembers how he used to pick up a gaove, weighing less than a kiss, and now she raises his overcoat, weighing eight pounds, from whatever chair he may cast it upon and hangs it up for him. Once or twice he catches her with her halo off, and she is inclined to think that the one he used tb wear when she saw him three times a week, was a borrowed one. Al! there is of all this. is, they are learning that each of them married, not an angel, RS they sup- posed, but a human being of the opposite sex. That's all. And they will be far happier with each other than either could be with an angel. That would be a mesalliance, indeed, I never knew a man in my life who was fit to. marry an angel, or who could live -happily with one on this earth. And is sweet time he angel would have of it, trying to live yen with the best of us. Angels have been cast into the pit for their wickedness, hut none of them were ever so bad that they were eentenced to marry human beings. Why, you know what kind of a man your brother Ben is? Well,Oria,ndo is just about that sort of a man. Orlando isn't quite lio considerate as Ben, but you can train him. He's aengood as other men, and that gives you a foundation upon which to build the best man in the world. 1 I Will Do Right. I wish that those who put en the cross would wear it to help them in the fight with whatever devil is especially theirs. I have met so many people of late that have told me of sins they were indulging in and to which they had become slaves, though their nearcet friends did net suspect them, and I have said to them: "Nothing less than very heroic treatment will de in Your ease; you will have to make a tremendous fight to get your freedom. You will have to say. " I will he free if it costs me my life." I like a tremendous I will "'arid " I will not." It is not in the power of Satau make me ein if I will not do it. I have the power of choice in my own hand, and God will res pet it. If he had made us ma- chines, of course he would make us run on the right track. Now, dear Daughters,I speak to you earnestly, as a mother to her Household Hints. A plain cake may be made into a ri-oh one by adding this frosting : Three teacupfuls of sugar and half a teacupful of water boiled ftogether until it will " thread " from the spoon. Have the whites of two eggs beaten to a froth in a good-sized dish, and pour the boiled sugar over them, beating all the time until cool. Into this stir half a pound of blanched almonds, chopped a little; half 4 cupful of seeded and chopped raisine, and, if liked, some candied citron or lemon peel. This is enough for a large cake or for one layer of a small cake and the frosting. A very good way to use up cold roasts, especially those of pork or veal, is to put a ..uffialerit number of slices into vinegar ooer hight, then dip in egg and bread crumbs and fry a light brown. Veryoice salads may also be made of cold Veal arid lean pork. For the dressing, beat two eggs, add one teaspoonful of mustard. be of salt, two of sugar, one tablespoonful- pf butter, a small cupful of vinegar. Stand 'this in boiling water and stir till it thicken!. If you have hall a cupful of cream, sweet or sour, add that also. With the addition of a' little celery lean pork salad is'quite as good as chicken or veal. To wash calico without fading, put three gills of salt in four quarts of water. Put the calico in this while the solution is hot, and leave it until it becomes cold, then wash and rinse. ro prevent colored stockings from fading, put a tablespoonful of black pepper into the water in which they are rinsed. Black stockings, or those which are dark -colored, should never be washed in water which has been used for other clothes. Black pepper iu the water will also keep black calico or cambric from fading. The best of all Indian puddings is made as follows: One quart of well -cooked cornmeal mush, three eggs, one coffee -cupful of New Orleans molasses, scant cupful of sugar, nutmeg and salt to taste, and sufficient milk for a thin batter. Bake or steam three hours. No sauce required. For oatmeal blancmange wet two table- spoonfulaof oatmeal in cold water and stir into a scant quart of boiling milk.

CILLETTI, Toronto. Ont. saw her before, and his face shines like the Naulahka as he hovers about the pair, brushing invisible dust from dustleSs things. for he knows in his heart that the young man is good for a dollar or nothing, and he is going to play a strong game for the dollar. The conductor, with the anx- ious fro,wn of grave responsibility deepen- ing on his face with the hurry of the first collection, feels his face relax into smiles that break through all the clouds of his care as he reaches for their tickets. He ignores as does everybody else -the young man - and bends down to the bride with a fatherly air that is most becoming to him, as he gives reassuring and confident answers to her amazing questions about nnheard-of connections at utterly impossible junctions a thousand miles beyond the end of his run. To Avoid Contagion. The beat way, says a physician, to prevent the poison from being absorbed by the lungs is to have the stomach full during a period of contact or exposure. The lunge absorb while the stomach is empty, but throw eff during digestion, never absorbing while di- gestion is going on. While watching at night the nurse should take a light lune!) such as beef -tea or crackers every few hours. Another point of protection against contagion is personal cleanlinet,s and frequent changes of inside and outside clothing. Society Avenges Itself. Society has a way of avenging itself for the wrongs committed on the lowest of all its members. Sir Robert Peel gave his daughter a magnificent riding habit on her nineteenth birthday, and attired in the em- broidered gown, she rode side by side with him in the parks of London. She had scarcely returned home before she wars token ill with the most malignant form of typhus fever,and in ten days was laid to rest in the churchyard. And the secret was a simple i one. The poor seamstress, in a garret n one of the slums, while she was embroider- ing that garment looked upon a husbapd shivering in the paroxysm of _chills, and she took the half -finished garment and laid it over him; .and the garment took up the germs of fever, and conveyed them from the hovel of the poorest to the palace of the statesman. And we are so bound together in one bundle of social life, and if we neglect the poorest and lowest, society will avenge herself in the destruction of the highest and the richest and most -cultivated. -Herbert, the 12 -year-old son of Alex. Kenzie, livery man, Guelph, experienced a fall on Saturday which nearly cost him his life. It appears some one "dared him I to weak on the railing at the aide of Eramesa bridge, when he at once prooeeded to do so. He crossed the river safely, when it was Frog- gested that he should cross again with' a stone in his hand. He attempted to do so, but had not gone many feet before he fell to tile ground beneath, a distauce of some twatty feet. He alighted on his feet snd then fell forward, with the effect of in- juring his lege, arms and forehead. In fact the boy is badly bruised and shaken up, and will require a couple of days' rest before he can get around again. -A sharp trick was played by a butcher near Arkell, Wellington county, a short time ago. The butcher bought some cattle for a good figure and thinking he had paid too much for them he hired another man to go and offer the ame farmer a higher figure than he had paid, after which the butcher went and told the man he bought the cattle from that he couldn't take them for about two weeks longer, when the farmer told him he was offered more than he had sold them to him for. Then the butcher said, "Give me back the money I gave you to bind the bargain and you may sell them to the man who offered more." This he did, and he is now hunting up his other buyer, who is, of course, not to be found. Value of a Laugh. For getting on in the world a eheery laugh is a valuable ally. We are apt to think well of and to befriend if necessary the man who never fails to see the point ot our witticisms and gives loud and hearty evidence of his appreciation. A grave man is a bore; to be taciturn and uniformly serious one should have no need of the world's good opinion or assistance. To sit in a gay company a dumb dog, unable to say good things one's self, or to cackle melodiously or otherwise at the good things of one's neighbors, is considered a crime, which no moral or intellectual vir- tues can expiate. -Gentleman's Magazine. • Age Cannot Wither Her.
