For a small family, where only a small quantity of beef is cured, this is a most excellent way: Take for twenty pounds of beef one pint ( f salt, one teaspoon ful of saltpetre, quarter of a pound of brown sugar, dividing the ingredients into three equal parts, rub them well into the beef on three su 'cessive days; in this way we dispense with pickles altogether. Tomato Salad. Wipe ond slice about half a dozen tomatoes, lay them in a salad bowl on a bed of green salad; pour over then the following t alad dressing: Put in the bottom of a pint bowl tho yolk of a raw egg and a quarter of a saltspoouful of salt; stir in, drop by drop, three tablespoonfuls of salad-oil, one of vinegar or lemon-juice, and half a salt spoonful of dry mustard, stirring until smooth. The appearance of this dish may be varied by serving tho tomatoes whole, tach ono sur rounded by two or thice small, tender lettuce leaves. The tomatoes should bo scalded for a minute by pouring boiling water over them, so that their skins can easily be removed. Cream Cake, or Pie. This is an excellent dessert cut as n pie, or it may bo S' rved as a cake for tea. For the crust, take three egg, one cupful of flour, tne-third of a teaspoonful of soda and one teaspoonful if cream of tar tar. Beat the whites and yolks tell sepa rately; stir all together as quick as possible, and bako in two pans (if rather small); if large use only one), the Latter three-quarters of an inch thick. For the cream, take two and a half cupfuls of sweet milk, four even tablespoonfuls of- sugar, two tablespoonful.-i of flour and one egsj. Boil this a few mo ments until it has thic kened, and llavor ith vanilla or lemon. When tho crust is cold, split it and put the custard between. This cake is much improved with a boiled icing. Pepper Mangoei. Put three dozen green peppers into a strong brine for four days, placing a w eight upon them to keep them un der the brine. Cut . slit in each one, and with a sharp knife remove the seeds and let them drain. Chop two heads of cabbage very fine, and scald it ith boiling brine. Squeeze it dry and add to it half an ounce of celery seed, half a pound of mustard Beed, and two cloves to each pepper. Fill the peppers as full as they will hold with'the cabbage, etc., putting the cloves in with it. Tie a string around each one and pack them in a large tone jar. Add as much cider vinegar a? will cover them, a tablespoonfill of allspice, three blades of mace, and half a cup of brown sugar. Pour it boiliug hot over the mangoes and tie them up closely, and do not open them lit two or three months. A remedy, which is recommended by good authority as excellent for the coinpUints of children at this season t.f the year, is made by boiling for six hours a teacupfulof wheat flour tied closely in a cloth, At tho end of that time take out of tile water, and let it dry and cool. When you w ish to use it grate t o tablespoonfuls of it, mix with a little cold milk, then stir into one pint of boilinc; milk. Sweetenjto the taste with powdered sngar. Useful Hints. Stoves blackened when en tirely cold will keep the clean look a very , reat deal lonzer than when they are polished when the stove is warm. Zinc can be bright ened by rubbing it with kerosene oil, but it is much better to have it painted, as this will save much labor. After you have swept your carpets quite clean, yon may brighten them with a flannel cloth wrung from beef's gall and water. White paint may be cleaned as well as windows, by using whiting and water, while grained wood work should be h iped with a flannel cloth wrung out of cold tea.

A correspondent of the Indiana fitrnwr writes: As most people are fond of fish, and the Government is supplying fish to stock ponds with, perhaps a few suggestions pertaining to fish, ponds, their profits, and pleasure, would not be" out of place in your valuable paper. In the first place you must have a suitable place for the pond. The best place is along a creek where springs come out of the bank; if the bank is fifteen or twenty feet high, so much the better. The bank should be on the south side of the pond. The benefit of having a high buik on the south side, is that you can look over the pond and see the fish, it the wa ttr Is clear; if the bank was on the north side you could not see on account of the reflection of the sun on the water. The site being cho sen, now take a scraper and scrape out the dirt the size you want your pond, leaving a small island in tho center; by all means havo a small island in the center. It would not be complete without an island, as I will attempt to show further on. The dirt, which is scrarcd out of the pond, can be used for a dam. It would be best to put a dam at both cuds, one to hold the water for tho pond and the other to turn the creek in another channel; if the springs do not fur nish enough water, you can fix a gate at the upper end aud let the cieek run through; and when there comes a rain, close tho gate to keep the muddy waler out. The shape of the pond may be made to suit the owner's fancy, but I suggest that it be irregular, with capes and promontories extending into it. Plant tomo nice trees on them, and some ce dar on the etetp bank on the south side; but don't forget that island; make it round tir oval, gradually tapering to the top; plant a cedar tree in the middlo of it; that island will be a thing of beauty by and by. Now plant water lilies all around the edge of the pond but don't put any on that island. A few stalks of horse radish may be planted along with the lilies, as their large leaves form quite a contrast with the long, narrow leaves of tho lilies. It might be well to plant a couple of peach trees on the island, as they will grow luxuriantly there. Generally there are some trees growing on the bank, like the one on the south side; if there are, plant grape vines to run up ono or more of the trees; it will be a thing of beauty as well as of profit. But I almost forgot that island. Buy a packet of petunia seed; it will only cost five cent", aud sow them on the island; tho reason I suggest petunia, is, they aro hardy and will form a compact mass of flowers, and they will come from self-sown seed, so they only need be sown the first year. Now your pond is complete. Tho next thing is to stock it. Carp is perhaps the best fish for ponds, as they are of good quality and quick growth. They can be procured of eur Fiah Commissioner, by makiijg duo application. ou must keep all range your pond with a gate that you can draw off the water. It ia quite laughable to let tho water out of the pond, and then o around tho bank, and clusc tho frogs in; they will make a big jump, expecting to strike wj tor, but instead, they land on solid bottom, turn two or three somersaults and try to dive; then becoming disgiuted, hop off as fast as their leg will carry them until they find a hiding place. It your pond has a few deep places in it so you cannot draw the water oil, and there ale some small fish you wish to get out, take a stick and put ono end in tho water and follow the fish up with it, and tho fish will soon stop, and you can reach down and catch them. It only takes carp about two years to grow to weigh three or four pounds, and then you can have all the fish you want. Those peach trees on the island will bear in three years, and the grape in tour years; so in a short time jou will reap quite a profit from a piece of land that could not have been put to any other use. Put a rustic seat in the shade of one of the trees, and then in your idle hours you can watch the fish basking in the warm rays of the sun and see that island, as it were out in midocean, covered with flow ers. All who can should build ponds, but have an island in the pond; an island noei not look well in a round pond, but an irregular shaped one is not complete without one, it you admire tne beautiful, it snouiu oe seen to do appre ciated. The potato farmers of Illinois, taking a practical lesson from the scarcity of potatoes throughout the country last year, planted a larger area with this homely tuber than ever before, and they are having a season of re markably good fortune. Tho crop is yielding beautifully; nevertheless, tho price keeps up in a way that astonishes buyer, and it prom ises to remain stiff and high until the crop of new potatoes is pretty v. ell disposed of. The explanation given for this is the large demand from Chicago, Detroit, St. Paul and other cities. Last year's crop, especially in the Northwest, was very short, and is now almost entirely consumed; tnd as the new crop in that quarter is not yet matured demands are made for Southern new potatoes t supply the deficiency; Farmers have been getting $1 23 to $1 35 per bushel for their early crop, and as the fields are turning out about 200 bushels an acre and over, it will be teen that potato, raising this year is a profitable business in Il linois. In many cases farmers are getting for their crops three or fsur times as much as the land they are raised on is worth. Human Prejudice. Some one has wisely said: "There ia noth ing stronger than human prejudice;" and thit is true. Especially are some minds preju diced against "proprietary medicines." Bo cause some such medicines are shams, they leap ts the conclusion that all are. As well say, because some physicians are quacks, all are. There are counterfeits of all cool thine. even of gold coins and yreenbacka. But there is true money, ana there are true medicines. Among the utter is Hunt's Remedy, true and tried, and with the testimonials of hundreds who ham been healed and sa el from the grave by it. For all diseases of the kidneys, the liver, the urinary organs, it stands with out a peer. Physicians prescribo it, and the sick hail it with joy. lint it cheaper to buy a bottle of it yourself, and tike it according to directions, than to pay for your prejudice by receiving it at the I ands of your pby.iciao at ten times the cost t ' 4i; Jllf "Wreq.

OUR LETTER BOX. .Aunt Hetty is away anin this week, ami as there are but a few letters she will only write a sliort introductory, and then let the letters speak for themselves. How happy Delia must be with five little brothers. Delia, you must remember that in coming years it will fall to your lot to make your brothcis good and true men. A sister's influence over her brothers is one of the lead ing points of makiug noble men of brothers. It is real jolly fun to go birds' nesting, and we hope you did not allow any ono to disturb them. Wild birds are nice companions, and do much good to orchards, etc., as they kill the worms and bugs that infest the trees and shrubbery. Lizzie was good to write again, for had she not our box would havo been almost empty this week. So you have forty-four tuikes, well that's a good start for the coming Thanksgiving and Christmas time. Halskv, August 1, 1882. Editor Home Circlo : I enjoy reading tho letters from the little boys aud girls very much, and have often thought of writing, but I have been going tn school and helping ma when at home, so that I had but little time to spare. School is out now, and I am almost ecrry, as I love to go to school so much. But I guess ma is ijlail, for she needs meat home. I am 12 years old. I have no sisters, but I havo five brothers, all younger than myself. Now if ' two little boys can doublo the fun, how much fun do you suppose five little boys can make? We'll, they do make lots of fun, and ots of work too. Two cf them are old enough to go to school with mr, and two are little blue-eye.l fellows 4 and 2 years old. I wish you could see them play and hear them talk; I know you would laugh. But tho other one is just thc sweetest little baby only 5 months old. 1 have no other pets, though I would liko to have a canary. But we havo lots of flowers, and a great many wild birds made their nests in our shade trees thii summer. Ono was a weaver bird. My brother climbed up in tho tree after the little birds flew away and broke off the limb with the nest hanging on it. It is very curiously made of woven grass and horse hair, in the shape of a long pouch, and lined with wool. The kinebirdt commenced to build a nest over the door up-stairs, but another bird tore it up five or six times, till they had stuff enough scattered about to mako several nests, and then they moved to an apple tree. Then there was a wren's nest in a rose bush, and another bird, we did not know its name, built on a maple tree just behind the house; and a goldfinch, or as they are sometimes called wild canaries, had a nest on another tree at the end, of the wood-shed, I think goldfinches are the sweetest and most home like of all the wild birds. There was a kind of wild mustard growing in our yard last spring, and they seemed very fond of the seeds; they would alight on it so thick that it looked ss though it were covered with yellow blossom. Ma would not have it dug up, be cause they seemed to enjoy it so much; they would chirp and hop about, and we could go quite close to them without making them fly away. But my letter is getting so long that I must leave the rest till next time. Please put my name on tho temperance roll. Dcixa A. RoBNKTT. Muorhodsk, July 23, 1882. Editor Home Circle : As you are so kind as to publish the little iolks' letters in the Home Circle, I will send one. My pa takes the Fa KM tn, and I like to read the children's letters. We aro having some very hot and windy weather. We have n'jt had any rain for a long time; it is trying to rain some now; we shall have a good deal of corn if it rains any. The crops will not be very good this season. We have a grove of boxelder trees, and they look very good. We have no trees big enough for shade yet. We live two miles from any town, and we can't go to church and Sunday school very much. We have been going to school, but school is out now. My teacher s name was Miss Bessie Prig; she has gone to Walla Walla now, I have three sisters and one brother younger than myself. We have forty-four turkeys; they are very mischievous and get into the house; and we have a good many yount chick ens. I have a few pets; I have a hog and six pigs aud a pet calf. I will answer Martha Ik i ford's question i "Where in the Bible is the word dance spoken of !" It will be found in Lamentations, 5th chapter and 15th verse. I will also ask a question : "How many times was the River of Jordan crossed over on dry land, and by whom !" I send my mame for the temperance roll. I will closo to- th's time, with best wishes to Aunt Hetty and the little children of tho Home Circle. Your frien , Lizzie Parker. A New Deal tn Wheat. When Mr. Pillsbury was in Spokan Falls, last October, he publicly asserted that unless tho people there erected mills sufficient in capacity to gnnd the wheat grown in Wash ington Territory, ho would come there upon completion of the Northern Pacific and haul the grain to .his mills at Minneapolis That 'Mr. Pillsbury will do this is best shown by tho fact, as explained below, that hen get ting California wheat for his mills. Tho Pioneer Press says : Yhis paper contained recently an extendtd statement of tho shipment of California wheat to Minneapolis for grinding purposes, coupled with some continuation of tho con tinuance of this sourco of supply. Up to dato over 400 car loads of this Pacific Coast wheat has been received in Minneapolis, and it continues to be brought fo- grinding pur poses. Opinions are very much divided upon its utility, but the fact that it continues to bo purchased, that so large a quantity '.ins been purchased up to date, is pretty good evidence that it is not without its uses if still lacking in positive and undisputed merit. Hon. Geo. A. Pillsbury, during his re cent trip with Mr. Villard, gave to tho subject of wheat supply from tho Pacific Coast con siderable attention. He reached tho conclu sion from his investigation that the Cali fornia and Utah wheat would never be thor oughly available for grinding. It had the whiteness but lacked the strength. Ho bo lieved, however, that the wheat raised in yashingtOll Territory and along tho western end of tho Northern Pacific possesses all the qualities which havo contributed so much to the faino of Minneapolis flour When tho California wheat began to be received here ho wrote that such was tho case, to Mr. Villard, and asked him what he would be ablo lay down for in Minneapolis wheat that was raised in Oregon and Washing ton Territory. Mr. Villard replied that ho could pay GO cents a bushel for it and deliver it in Minneapolis for SI net. The present prico of wheat in that region is about 40 cents, the transportation facilities being such that it costs fully as much to deliver it in the San Francisco maract as it is estimated it will cost to deliver it in tho Minneapolis market. ' Mr. Pillsbury wroto in reply that from his examination of the subject ho was convinced that if hard wheat were used for planting, tho farmers of the region mentioned could rais3 wheat equal to the best Red river wheat, and urged upon Mr. Villard tho importance of using his influence to that end. Mr. l'illsbury's letter was niven tho widest possiblo circulation, published in all tho papers of that region, and Mr. Villard has set to work to not only encourago wheat grow ing, but to building elevators with particular reference to the delivery of the Oregon and Washington Territory wheat in Minneapolis Ho sent for all available information upon tho best methods of constructing elevators, and not the least of tho many things to Miich ho is alive is an npprecia'ion that the Minneapo lis mills are to bo an important factor in tho development of tho country along his road and the profits of his great thoroughfare. Tho subject is to bo still further investigated by Chiet Engineer Anderson, who is expected hero shortly. The statement that tho present price of wheat here is forty cents is evidently a mis print. Tho ruling price hcio is fully sixty cents, and it is more than likely that tie opening prico for tho new crop will be hfty five if not sixty cents. The Year of Jubilee. Every seventh year the ancient Jews per mitted the soil to bo undisturbed with the tools of the husbandman. It was a jcar of recuperation alike for soil and man. Every fiftieth year these people were commanded neither to sow, nor reap that which grew of itself, nor to gather the grapes that grew in uutrimmed vineyards. -This was the Year of Jubilee,when every husbandman.evcry debtor, all tho distressed were set free; when the poor plucked the luscious clusters from the vineyards of tho rich, and none could refuse them admittance. If tho people of our oge would spend lets money for tobacco, whisky, etc., wo might afford a year of jubilee now ml then; but it is doubtful if the boys of the nineteenth century would wait for such a season beforo making freo with their neighbor's gra ts and peaches. Grapes in the Holy Land wero an import ant product tho climate, the soil, ami the sunny hillsides conspiring to promote their welfare. The vine, the fig-tree and tho olive, aro frequently mentioned in tho Good Book. But the wine-press has long since crumbled to dust; the descendants of tho varieties of grapes then grown have found refugo and friends on foreign shores; the hillsides lio waste and barren, and the glad voice of the husbandmen is seldom heard in the promised land that once flowed with milk and honey, Fruit-Orower. A delicious cherry-pudding is made iu this way: Make a crust as for baking-powder bis cuit; roll it out till it is about two-thirds of an inch thick. Stew enough cherries so that when they are spread on the crust they will cover it and be deep enough to make a good lajtr of fruit; roll the crust, up then, taking caro t keep the cherries from falling oil. Wrap a cloth around it; tew it loosely with coarse thread, which is easily palled out. Al low plenty of room for the crust to rise. Lay this on a plate and set it in a steamer. Steam it for an lour and a half. Serve iu slices, with sauce. The object in stewing the cherries is that the juice will not be soaked into the crust, Chenalls Valley. Correspondence Ledger. One of the three considerable stream', which flow from sources in the eastern foot hills, of that part of tho coast range known as the Willapa mounUios, meanders iu an east erly course to the Chchalis river, and is known as Lincoln Creek. Tho valley on ei ther side of this stream is called by the same name, and contains many acres ot good agri cultural lands. The width of this valley varies from one-fourth to three-fourths of n mile, aud its length is not far from sixteen miles. Prior to tho settlement of this section of country in 1809, it was, lor tho greater part, covered with undcrgrowths, and was commended, to those in search of homes, by it" rich loam soil. Tho valley contains two prairie, locitul, one near its western limit of about one hundred and twenty acre?, and ono near its eastern limit of some greater area. On each side of tho valley aro tilnber-coverod hill-, between which often How clear, cool rivulets, which in several instances are utilized by the farmers. The residents now number somo twenty-hve families, who have made here for themselves homes for a greater or less length of time. Tho vally at this time pre sents quite a contrast to its appearanco in ear lier days, and one sees clearings, meadow 8, fields and orchards; in a word, farms yielding the reward of industry, aud speaking compli ments for the entcrpriso and energy of the pioneers which havo carried them to success. The capabilities of this section of country can be estimated by comparison of tho cultivated fields with the larire extent of .uncultivated lands. Over six thousand bushels of grain were raised hero in 1881, besides quite a quan tity of hay of unsurpassable quality, aud stock of considerable value. But, aside from agri culture, other inducements arc offered tn Uiqso in search of homes. This locality, witli respect to market and navigation, will soin, no doubt, be ono of superior advantage. The Chehnlis river, which borders tho cast end of tho valley and flows northwcstorly through a portion of Thurston and Chehalis counties to Gray's Harbor, is known to bo uavigablo for many miles above tho mouth of Lincoln Creek, and although now obstructed, will soon bo required by, and made to serve thu demands of trade, and towns will surely spring up, ou its banks, at f.ivorablo points at no distant day, anufacturers Build. Every citizen of Walla Walla ought to be willing to admit two facts: one that thcro is HO other city in Washington Territory, if on tho coast, with a better natural position for a largo commercial and manufacturing trade, and to-day she should be in advance of towns and cities of her size and population; and that other fact, that her spirit for public enter prises has not kept pace with tho desire for individual, privato gain in other wonts, this last has been tho too exclusive and dominant idea. To-day we aro making a move for a rail way that is to tap and make tributary to this city a vast extent of very productive country. So far, so good, In a week or so the liiislncra pulses of tho city will throb anew under this now entcrpriso. In a hundred ways this new enterprise will make its way into tho arteries of Walla Walla commerce. It is ono long stride in tho right direction; but tho spirit that urp'i this enterprise thouM not stop at the inauguration of the road to Pendleton The next step should be toward tho establish ment of a woolen mill within the limit of tho city. Every business man in this city under, stands that it is absurd to bo shipping hun dreds of thousands of wool to Eastern manu facturers, ami bringing it back in tho shape of cloth at a greatly advanced price. '1 he ostali lishment of a woolen milt heroin Walla Walla means a rapid increase in our population; cheaper clothing; tho sending East of tho pro duct of our industries, Instead of paying s heavy premium for all we need; cheaper everything, because hundreds of thousands of dollars will be saved to us at homo tlut are now wor-e than wasted, Walla Walla ought to hold tho same relation to tho other towns and cities of Eastern Washington and North ern Idaho nnd Montana that Cincinnati docs to Ohio, Southern Indiana anil, Eastern Ken tucky. The establishment, of a thrifty manu facturing interest will give us prestige, and build here a largo and populous city, Walla Walh Statesman. The Growing of Fruit. It is tolerably safe to say that with tho pre vailing ptices here in Walla Walla those who have had fruit to sell havercalized a very gotd profit on it. And it is also a safe propositi! n it say that every farmer who brought fruit to thii city had no trouble 'iu disposing of it t otice; indeed, ho could find half a dozen buy cas ready to take it lor cash, It is mil another safe calculation that there will always be a good market here for all the fruit that sin be raised in this valley. hat fruit is not consumed hero will be purchased for ship ment to tho Upper Country, where it is diffi cult to raiso it on account of early and late frosts, And with all these facts beforo us, tho questiou whether fruit growing is profitable ought to bo considered answered in the allirm ative. We have security against frosts, trees can be as well planted and as thoroughly cul tivated here as anywhere iu tho world, a d these things constitute the elements of succets iu fruit-growing. It is true that the interest aud expense of cultivation will nearly double the cost of laud and trees before returns c onie in, but when tlm trees beiriu to yield their profit, all this expense is very rapidly returned, Of course, the man who grows fruit as a business must give it great care, and should be prepared to dry a large por tion ol the crop, but In the end it will pay him much more handsomely than anything el.o in the agricultural way he can do. It i asserted that the orchards of California pay much Utter than all the other farming put together. What is true of California, in a great measure U truo of Walla Walla valley. We have a good soil, good location, a fine market, and our fruit is fine flavored, and all that can be desired. The care that is given orchards in California will make our fruit ten per cent, better than it is now, and in that ratio increase the market price. Wo believe that fruit growing should be mora carefully looked after here, and that it will always repay cultivation, tt'ttlla Walla Statesman.
