Household Receipts. FRExent Vegetable Soup. Boil a beef soup bone, strainiDg the liquor. For stx quarts of soup, take four large, or six small potatoes, one largo or two small parsnips, two large or four small be, onions, one large or two small car rots. Feel the vegetables, and put them in the pot to boil. When tender, skim them all from the soup, and pass them through a wire sieve ; beat them well together, and stir them in the soup, season Hwlth pepper, salt, French mustard mixed, and tomato catsup ; the two last to be added just before dishing. The soup should be as thick as good water gruel, when fiuished. lie careful not to scorch it. In cooking, use cast iron pans, galvanized with tin linings. A China lining will crack soon, and the food be spoiled. Copper re quires a good deal of work, and often in little crevices generates verdigres. Boiling water and wash ing soda used with a brush, will keep clean the galvanized iron. ers. years lid, well nine. To make bread crumbs, dry stale bread in the oven, break it up, role it with a pin, and pass it through a coarse sieve French Twist Bread. Take one quart of light dough raised with home made yeast ; mix in a large tablespoon of sweet butter, a salt-spoon of salt, and one egg ; add llour, and knead well. Let it rise until lhrht, then knead very gently; roll the dough in thin strips, measuring an inch in diam eter dredge lightly with flour, and braid loosely ; let it stand a few mo ments, and bake quickly without turning. Futca.ssee of Veal. Cut in bits lean veal, and parboil in salted -water. Drain off the water, dust the veal with flour and brown in butter ; add sufficient of the broth for the gravy to the browned but- 3 tec an'l thicken very little with llour. Toast bread, hiy the slices on the platter, lay on each slice a jmrt of the veal, and pour the gravy over the whole. Serve with mashed potatoes. 'Milk. In warm weather, when milk sours soon, put in two table spoonsful of salt to every four gal lons before straining. It will im prove the quality, and increase the quantity of butter. It is recom mended by the owner of a line dairy. To Bote IIjkd-siielled Clams. Wash the shells very clean, put them in a pot with a3 little water as will keep the pot from burning, with their eflires down : and boil T constantly. When the shells open they are done ; remove them ; have ready nice butter toast. and pour the clams on the toast, with as much of the juice as the toast will absorb ; add pepper if desired. Stewed Clams. Put the clams in a stewpan, with about the same epianity of water as the juice of the clams, boil from twenty-live to thirty minutes, remove all the scum that rises, and season with butter and a dust of pepper. To Fry Clams with Ego and Crackers. Procure large sand clams ; dip them in egg, bread crurabs, rolled crackers or meal, and fry brown in sweet butter. The Virtues of Borax. The washerwoman of Holland and Bel gium, who get up their linen so beautifully white, use refined bo rax as a washing powder instead of soda, in the proportion of a large handful of borax powder to about ten gallons of boiling water ; they save in soap nearly half. All the large washing establishments adopted the same mode. For laces, cambrics, etc., an extra quantity of the powder issued, and for crinolines (required to be mads very stiff) a strong solution is nec essary. Borax being a semi-neutral salt, it does not in the slightest degree injure the texture of the finest linen ; its eifect is to soften the hardest water, and, therefore, it should be kept on every toilet. To Remove the Stain of Wine jb Fruit. Rub the part on each s'ulO) with yellow soap. Then lay on a thick layer of starch dissolved in cold water ; rub in well, and expose the linen to the sun and air till the stain comes out. If not re moved in three or four days, rub that off and re'new the process. As it dries sprinkle with a little water. O 1 Orange Butter. One of the most delicious additions to a des ert or tea table. Beat until light, six eggs, then add two ounces of powdered sugar, four ounces cf butter. Have ready the juice of 5ix oranges, and also the grated peel of two. Add this gradually to the other ingredients, and beat all together until light. When well mixed, it may be formed into a mould. Loner, Love, Lemon Cake. One and a half cups sugar, one-half butter, two eggs, the rind of lemons grated, and the juice of one, one-half tea- ppoonful salerattis, and flour enough for a thick batter. Indian Pudding. Three pints of milk, ten heaping tablespoonfuls of Indian meal ; three gills of mo lasses, a piece of butter as large as a hens egg. Scald the meaf with the milk and stir in the butter and molaes. Bake three or four Lours. Washing Prints. To wash prints, delaines, and lawns, which will fade by using soap, make a starch water similar for starching prints ; wash in two waters with out any soap ; rinse in clear water. If there is green in the fabric, add a little alum to the starch water. Simple Pudding. Boil a quart of milk, cut up some bread in small pieces and soak them in the Sc limn., mi iiuuui mm an Hour ; men add a table meal, and a piece of butter thp siV. i iil-.l-. 9r a "alnn-t i sweeten well, ami put Allen.

A short time ago we met a gentle man from Illinois who gave us a piece of information in regard to ascertaining the age of horses, after he or she passes the ninth year, which is news to us, and will we arc sure, to the most of our read It is tins : After the horse is nine of age a wrinkle comes on the eyelid at the upper corner of the lower and every year thereafter he has one denned wrinkle for each year over If for instance, a horse has three wrinkles, he is twelve; if four, he is thir teen. Add the number of wrinkles to nine, and you will always get it. So says the gentleman, and he is confident that it never fails. As a good many people have horsts over nine it is easily tried. If true, the horse dentist must give up his trade. What Constitutes an Acre.

As the age in which we live demands progress in Farming Implements as Well as in all other branches of indus try, ice have entered extensively upon the Manufacture of the Celebrated. I9 lei I Crsjlh Flow I Better known in Oregon as thf WOL GA MO T PL O W. Th is Plow coiz . bines all the desirable poin ts of a py- feet implement, being simple in con struction, cheap), durable, and of light draft. The only Premiums iffhieJh werc awarded to Gang Ploivs at the-greaJ Implement trial at Maltoon, Sept. 4, 1806. by the Slate Agricultural sod-, ety of Illinois, were awaraed to this Plow. The follojving is an extract from the Report of the Cornr&iisuGsver of Agriculture, for the year l&6o and may be found on page 24G cf that re port : "The Gang Plow made by J. C. Pfeif, Arenzville, Cass county Illinois, is receive! with no little favor in the west. Almost in credible stories are told of its excellence and efficiency in plowing the prairie fields of Illinois and other States. " The depth of the furrow is regulated by the crank-axle, which is so arranged that the ploughs can be driven deeper or shal lower at the pleasure of the driver, when the team is moving,by means of the lever. We also manufacture sulkey plows for small boys, or infirm persons who are unable to manage a team of three or four horses. This gang or sulkey plow, will cut a fur row from 2 to 10 inches deep. " The committee who tested the draught of this plow with a dynamometer state, that it ran lighter by 140 p"ounds,than other plows when running at the same depth, and held by the plowman while on foot." With this Plow one man can do more work than two men can do with walking Plows, and the same amount of team. Hence, it will be seen that it will more than pay for itself in, one season's plowing. We will also manufacture the WEB-FOOT GANG PLQWI A XC Til E Web.Foot Walking Blow ! Both patterns of Jfr, Eacis1 invention for which patents have been applied for, and which have withstood practi cal tests with the hestresults.receiving flattering testimonials wherever seen or tried. Now, the Fanners of Oregon are invited to give the Oregon City Manufactory a trial. Do not purch ase a Plow of any description until you have examined our make and prices, as ice are determined to sell ai less than importer s rates, by giving you a more durable article,and a guar- antee warranting the same.
