The Huron Expositor, 1878-05-31, Page 6THEIHMON - POSITOR. MAY 31, 1878, To Oure Dogs Of Worrying Sheep. Land and Water advises the follow- ing: Wrap a narrow strip of sheep- skin that has much wool on it rount the dog's lower jaw, the wool outwards, and fasten, it 'so that he cannot get rid_ of it. Putthionhmfora few times daily, and there is a chance that he will become as thoroughly disgusted as ever you could wish with every animal of the race whose coat furnishes fingh odi- ous mouthfuls ; but prevention being better than cure, pay great attention to your dog's morals during the lambing season. Dogs not le,d away by evil companionship rarely commence their . depredations upon sober, full-grown sheep.- In ninety-nine cases out of a hundred they have previoway yielded to the great temptation of miming down some frisking lamb, whose ani- mated gambols seemed -to court pur- • suit." Reasons Why. Why does boiling fast render meat hard? Because the excessive action of heat causes the albumen of the meat to set solid, crisps up the fleshy fibres, and prevents heat having a gradual access to the interior. Why, when a good soup- or broth is required, should the -meat be put into cold water? 13ecanse as the heat is developed very gradually:there occurs an intermixture -between the juices of the flesh and the external matter; The soluble and sa- vory parts pf the meat escape and en- ricb the soup. Why are stews generally healthful , and digestible ? Because, being compounds of various substances, they contain all the ele- ments of nutrition, and as the office of the stomach is to liquify solid food before digesting it, the previous stewing assists the sanaach in this par- ticular. What causes the cracklina noise when lard is put into a frying pane'? Lard always contains some portion of water, and it is the expansion of this water into steam, forcing itS way through the fat, which causes the crack- ling noise. The heat at whieh fat or oil boils is much greater than water. When the crackling ceases the water has been driven off from the fat, and when the fat begins to boil or bubble, its heat will be very high. Why, in frying fish, should the fat or oil be made very hot before the fish are put in ? , Because, if the temperature is low when the fish is put into the frying -pan, it becomes sodden in the steam - formed by its water,!but if the oil is very intich heated the Water will be at once driven off, and the fish nicely browned by th.e scorching oil. Why should fish or meat that is being fried. be frequently turned? Because the turning assists the evap- oration of the water. When fish or meat is allowed to lie too long, steam is generated under it, and the substance, :becomes sodden; and the moment the steam is driven off, the surface catches to the het pari.e.and becomes burnt and broken. Why is broiled meat so juicy and sa- vory? Because the action of the fire, har- dening its surface, seals up the pores through -which the juices niight escape. It acts in the same way that the sud- den dip into boiling water does upon the joints of meat; • Never_ use a fork, but tongs; a fork opens ,an escape for the juice, and wastes the best , parts of the meat. - Why is cabbage rendered More whole- some and nutritious by being boiled in two waters? Because (according to Di*. Paris) cab- bage contains an essential oil which is apt to produce bad effects; and he recommends that it should be -boiled in two successive waters, and then it is soft and. digestible. -e -The Householder. diseases by being yarded where affected ones have peen, and again injuries are frequent, especially if the sheep are handled by inexperienced workmen; and still another reason for abandoning the practice is the fact that sheep are often eaiVen one or two miles over dusty roads, with their wool -wet, to which the I dust readily adheres. But what if it does? They have been washed, and the wool -buyer must dis- tinctly understand it.Sheep should be well taeged before let out to grass in the Apring ; should be sheared in the month of May; should be housed for a . few nights' and turned. away to pasture, and in a few weeks' time will be in a much better condition than if' com- pelled to carry their fleeces to the mid- dle or last of June. The difference in value perj pound between wool thus handled- a d that washed and treated as above described is ' very slight. I trust the tine is not far distant when • all interested in these matters will see things in their true light." 'The Wool Trade. It is generally conceded by dealers that the wool business for the season of 1878 has been inaugurated with gloomy prospects for the woki growers of the country. lJustiee, Bateman & Co., of Philadelphia, in a circular says, that since the 1st inst., prices are a shade lower. Manufacturers have generally held off frcim buying because they have believed that a further decline was pro- bable. Prices are now so low that wools are beginning to attract attention._ More activity is noticeable, and some large lots have been taken off the market by consmners who were in need. The combing branch of wool manufacture, which has been active during the last few years while other branches of the businless liavo been unsatisfactory, has at last begiiu to share the general de- pression. Combing fleeces have, in con- sequence been neglected, and have de - alined more than any other quality. Washed Canada combing costing 50c, landed her last July, and which then sold at 55c finds no buyers to day at 40c, and other -grades of coarse long combing cOrrespondingly low. On this account th opinion is gaining ground that combi g wools will be worth little if any mor than the short staple or clothing. rubat grade which at present is best sustained, is the long wobl which is improveet by a merino cross,a-nd near- ly or quite ia1f of this blood. The coarse Or Cotswold and Leicester breeds, if nOt made finer by crossing with merino are neglected. New unwashed wools are arriving, and sell at 29c to 30c for me- dium shortl, or clothing; 25c to 26c for coarse or qUarterblood clothing; 24c to .. 25c for find Merino unwashed, and, 18c to 20c for ommore ,burry, and buck's fleeces. Tb -washed wools sell at 36c to 40c, the flatter for choice clean me- diuna grad s. . In a eirciIar dated the 16th inst., the sa,me firm says: Canada wools have been neglected so long that prices have fallen to 39b for tie -6 best selected waSh- ed fleeces., This is lower than they -have been for miiny years. As the tariff is not likely to be changed, the new clip will have tbe beught very lcsy to send s it to this sii. e at a profit. We think it will not be much lower, and it may be a good speculation to hold at this price. The sales that are being made at 38c to 390 are to arties who do not eapect to use it inn:a diately.. Canadian buyers to send wool to the States at the above figures would have - to buy here at 23c atpound. Last year it was 30c to 33c a pound. • Chileren and Dirt. *- • Washing Sheep. We take the following extract from an address of Mr. Alexander Hewitt, of _Allen, before the Hillsdale (Mich.) Far - niers' Institute: "1 Wish to say a few words at this time in reference to the practice of washing sheep, and -to enter my protest against it. I aoknowledge that I have heretofore washed my sheep, in view of the fact that the one- third nue of shrinkage of., all unwashed fleeces did not give me what I would be entitled to for my wool if unwashed. When wool Shall be bought strictly upon its merits, as other commodities are, and the, producer and manufacturer come to understand each other with a mutual regard for the interest of both, and competent agents are employed that can and will distinguish and compare the relative value of all wool, Whatever its condition may be, with a fixed stain • dard of wool, then the washing process will no longer be deemed a necessity. All wools, however well washed, go through a scouring process by the man- ufacturer. There are various reasons • for discarding the washing theory. If done early in May it endangers the health of man and beast from the cold state of the water at that time. If put off till the firSt jime it brings the shea ring too late,for usually from fifteen to twenty days' time need elapse be- tween the time of washing and shear- ing that the wool may become lubri- cated with the animal oil, giving it the luetee and brilliancy desirable, and to make it weigh - withal The -poor animals are thus canipelled to carry 1 - their heavy fleeces in the month of June, to their great incoevenience, and then. in turn to suffer for want of a por- tion of it in the early winter. 'With the same propriety a man might wear his flannels, with his overcoat well but- s toned, up, in the hot weather of June, 1 and, then stick to his cotton or linen garments in frosty weather in the month of NOVember. The wool on fashionably= bred merino ewes of the c present day, with wrinkles, folds and v flanges about the tail and, back part e)f the thighs, though tagged and washed I with. the greatest care, will frequently, in the warm wet weather of June, be- come tainted, and flies aro induced to p depoeit their eggs, from which great 111- 1 on cvenience and trouble arise. Sheep r thus besieged must be attended to at: I once. They eau be distinguished from . 1 others of the flock by their repeated r though ineffectual efforts to dislodge t their tormentors which have; taken re- w fuge under the aria wool and between the wrinkles. 1 Sheep sheared early in the season will take__ _care of themselves in this respect. Malta in not all. Ilealthy sheep are exposedtocontagione The New Ha-ven Register has been in- vestigating - the question of children's playing with dirt, and this is the con- clusions arrived at: The best plaything for your c.h4dren is dirt. This teaching may not se m orthodox, but it istrue nevertheles . It is hard to see the rosy cheeks and the dimpled hands that we dearly love to kiss covered with dirt al- most deep enough to plant potatoes. All this is annoying, but it is almost a necessity to the ,children's health. The earth is a good mother. From it we came upoi it we live; and to it we shall aturu. Children naturally love the earth. • If , they have no lit- tle- spade they will improvise one from a stick, and dig in: the garden., They will run their fingers in the dirt i and stir it up, breathing the air that .escapes. It -seems to he almost instinctive with them., Fre h earth is their delight and mud Pies a luxury. It is well to dress your children in the morning for dirty -.work. I A cheap calico apron and the oldest.pair q shoes they have should go on.- If it iS pleasant let them play the whole morning in all the dirt and mud they like. They will have an im- mense amount of fun and come in with glistening eyes, -rosy cheeks, and hard firm .fiesli. - Prospects of the Butter,Busi- ness. ,. . . The Farmers' Advocate says : " The prospects of a poor price for ordinary butter for the coming season are very im- minent. We wouldadviseour readers not to waste much of their energy in naaking butter, as has been usualy done, on most farms. The prices will be low and not as renunamtive as those for cheese; and you would, probably do better by turning your attention to cheese -making or - other purposes. If better -making is profitable it must . be made to suit the market. The old, soft, heated butter brought in baskets and crocks to the country stores will iot compare with the butter- carefully made at the creameries. Establish a creamery or abandon the, business, would be our advice, unless you have . every convenience and have established -our name for making. the best for con- innption at your flea -rest town or vil- age." • . Mistress Rnd Maid. i A few days ago a wealthy lady of this 1 ity desired a cook, and reading an ad- 1 ertieementin a paper of a women who . lesired a place, she responded by cal-, ing at No. -- Beacon street. The lady f the house happening to be in the drawing room, the csller had no op- . ortunity to send a card, but -im- nediately commenced conversation egaa:ding the cook. There was evident - y a misunderstanding, but when two adies start off upon false premises it equires sometime for them to fathom he difficulty. The lady of the house as expecting a cook to call and she mistook the lady for the applicanteand the lady, who was in search of a cook, had. made a mistake in the number of the house. 1 The point of explanation. was reached, however, wheel the caller , ^ was asked if she had good oference from her last place. The lady xecused her- self when informed that she waslooking after a cook, and was not a cook, by stating that cooks dressedt themselves up in such style now -a -day that it was difficult to distinguish ' mai tress from maid.—Boston Journal. _ How to Use a Grin. stone. First, don't waste the sto i e by run- ning it in water; but if you d., don't al- low it to e ;Ind in water when not in use as this will cause a soft place. ' Second, wet the -stone by dropping w ter on it from a pot suspended above t e stone, and stop off when not in use. Third, don't allow thestone to get mit of or- der, but keep ii perfectly round\" by the ) use of gas pipe r hacker. Fourth, clean off all greasy tools before sharpening, as grease or oil destroys the grit.k Fifth, observe when you get a stone that suits your purposes, send a saniple of the grit to the dealer to select by; a half -ounce sample is enough, and can be sent in a letter by mail. a \ • A Lemon Cure for Consu.rap- - tion. - A coriespondent of an English med- ical journal furnishes the following recipe as a new cure for consumption: "Put a dozen whole lemons in cold water and boil until soft not too soft), roll and squeeze until the juice is ex- tracted, sweeten the juice enough to be palatable, and then drink. Use as many as a dozen a day. Should. they cause pain and looseness of the bowel, lessen the quantity and, use five or six a day until better. By the time you have used five or six doxen you will be- gin to gain strength and have an ap- petite. Of course as you get better you need not use so many, Follow these directions and we know you will never regret it if there is any help for you. Only keep it up faithfully. We know of two cases where both of the patients were given up by the physicians, and were in the last stages of consumption, yet both were cured by using lentons, according to the directions we have stat- ed. One lady in particular was bed- ridden and very low; had tried every thing that money could procure, but all in vain, when to please a friend, she -was finally persuaded to use the lemons. She began to use , them in February, -and in April she weighed one hundred and forty pounds. She is a well -woman to -day and likely to live as long as any of us." • nritish Strikes and. Wages. The melancholy incidents which at- tend the great strikes in England, and which every day seems to invest with more bitter realities of wee may be un- derstood more thoroughly if the follow- ing table of wages is studied. In each case we have taken the average wages lof the different sets of operatives, and have Made the 10 per centum reduction on which the masters insist : WEEKLY WAGES EARNED IN SPINNMG ROOMS. Blowing room hands (women) $3 15 Strippers (young womon) 8 60 Grinders (men) 4 50 Drawers (women) 8 15 Slubbers (women) 3 40 Rovers and tenters (women) 8 32 Minders (men) 7 10 Piecers (MS) 3 70 libelers (women).. I 85 Throttle spinners (women) 3 24 Card imitators (overloolcers) 9 15 Managers. . 16 88 WEEKLY WAGES EARNED IN WEAVING ROOMS. Winders (women) 3 07 Warpers (women) 4 40 Sizers(men) 9 11 Loorners (men) 4 50 Two loom weavers (girls) 3 37 Three loom weavers 3 87 Four loom weavers 4 95 Tacklers .(men). 9 11 Cloth workers 5 63 Managers.. 15 75 These wages—in some cases, less for skilled labor than many errand. boys re- ceive in this country — portray more vividlythan any rhetoric can do . the dreadful condition into which the hard times in England has forced the British cotton operatives. Even at the low • wages for production it is understood that during the last yearthe cotton mill owners have been forced to contentthem selves with noininal profits or no profits at all, so that there appears to be noth- ing save the depression all over the -world to which the prevailing industrial Misery in England can be charged. We supply the foregoing list of wages to our protectionist friends to be used if they chOose, for decanting on "the pauper laborers" of England, knowing as we do that intelligent men who have cared to study the problem aceurately 11 find that, on the whole, England hats suffered less from the hard times than America or even frugal Germany, the condition of tke British cotton and iron trade beingWworse than that of other British industries. The proof of this as we have heretofore shown, are the even receipts under the British rev- enue laws and the stea'dy decrease of London pauperism. Aey one who takes the best p'ains to examine carefully the phenomena of the hard times in. Great Britain will find, therefore, that her • system of taxation has stood the test ever so ralich better than ours has, and her financial troubles have leeen in the main the disasters reflected upon her by the financial calamities *Moll have overtakeneher best foreign, customers, and are not, like ours, the logical re- sults of home mistakes.—New York Post. • • • A Trout Fisher's Yarns. Having fished.the lakes and streams of New England for thirty years,! I have had some curious incidents occur, and thought the following might interest your readers: While fishinu on a moun- tain stream, in swift water, 1 had a rapid bite, and thought I had hooked a large fish. On pulling out I had two 'trait on one line, one strung on the gut, the hook passing through his mouth and out of his gill and hooked firenly into the side of the other. Fish No. 2 was ten inches long, and, pulling sideways against the stream, seemed a much larger fish. Second: 'While fishing in what we call dead water on a stream. in New Hampshire I saw a large fish go up stream. I waited with fisherman's patience for an hour or two, !Ilion I crept up to the stream, and threw .at a venture under an overhangingi bo -ugh , and at the'fitst throw I had the trout fast. I saw that he was a large one, • No Trouble to Show Good8. and thought I would play him. !I I then saw he was pulling sideways. I short- ened. my tackle and landed My prize, and then found that I had not hooked him, but in my throw had cast' my hook and line around him, making a slip -noose. 1 On my way home ,1 passing alockemith's shop, I laid him on the old gent's square, and he stretched six- teen inehes—not a large •fish, but a large one for that place.—Letter to _Forest and Stream.
