-tlr ... i WILLAMETTE FARMER: PORTLAND, OREGON, APRIL 20, 1SS3. iS hclloicirck MRS. HARRIOT T. CLARKE, Editor. THE FARMER'S WIFE The farmer came in from the field one day, His languid step and his weary -way, His bended brow, and sinewy hand, All showing his work for the good of the land; For he sous, And he hots, And he mows, All for the good of the land. By the kitchen fire stood his patient wife, Light of his homo and joy of his life, With face all ajlow and busy liand. Preparing the meal for her husband's band. Fur she must boib And the must briil, And she must toil, All for the take of the home. Sun shines bright when fie farmer goes out, Birds sing sweet songs, lambs frisk about, Tl.o Virrtnt bnl.lilna anft.lv in the dell. While he works bravely for the good of men; For he sows, And he hoes, And he mows, All for the good of the land. How briskly the wife tteps about within Th'J dishes to wash, and the milk to skim, The tire goes oat the flics buzz about, For dear ones at home her heart is kept stout; There are pies to make, There is bread to bake, And steps to take, All for the sake of the home. When the day ia o'er and the evenintj has come, The creatures are fed and the milking done, He takes hi rest neath the old shade tree, From the labor of the land his thoughts are free Though he sows, And he hoes, And he mows, He rests from the work of the land. But the faithful wife, from sun to sun, Takes the burden up that is never done ; There is no rest there is no pay. For the household good she must work away; For to mend the frock, And to knit the sock, And the cradle to rock, All for the good of the land. When autumn is here, with chilling blast, The farmer gathers his crop at last, His barns are full, and his fields are bare, For the good of th land he ne'er hath care, While it blows, And it snows, Till the winter goes, He rests from the work ol the land. But the willing wife, till life's closing day, Is the children's, the husband's stay. From day to day she haa done her best, Until death alone can give her rest ; Fur after the test, Comes the rest, With the blest, In the farmer's heavenly home. ENGLAND'S QUEEN. The papers all announced lately that Queen Victoria hud slipped and hurt her foot, where at the whole English nation is in a ferment. The recent announcement of the death of her servant, John Brown, brings her again to mind in this connection. It is wonderful to observe the hold this woman has on the hearts of her subjects and yet she is a most thoroughly selfish, grasping woman. She is lauded as a patern of domestic virtue and no doubt her own life in this respct has had its benefitting influencrs. She has seemed to have had no aspirations beyond saving and laying up money from her immense revenues accruing from her vast est tes. In the past she was continually beseiging Parliment for the settlement of great sums upon each child that was born to this prolific couple requir ing another larger sum as each grew up for marriage settlements, instead of setting up these young folks to house keeping out of her immense fortune. These English people seem to take it as a favor to be taxed and starved to support a large family of boys and girls in idleness, luxury and profligacy, be cause, forsooth, they are of Royal blood; while millions of child voices are crying out for bread to eat. Never has Queen Victoria been knon to give generously even in times of National calamity ; never has the world heard of one great hearted, noble act, oppor tunities of which must have been abundant at all times. She seems to be destitute of these generous impulses that we attribute to royalty and generally belongs to tender hearted womanhood. The world would be only too ready to blazen it abroad if it could be said she was large hearted. A woman of stern virtue she could never forget or over look the frailties of her own sex. She could crush the poor girl, the maid of honor that her eldest son ruined, yet consider his sin as nothing. She is called a good mother how could she be otherwise. Where has been her trials. Had she been obl'ged to face the trials of a homely life such as come to the majority of women. We doubt if she would stand the test. Many a woman in the humb ler walks of life would bs her peer. Tfte selfish grief shown since her husbands death is unworthy a christian character that will suffer and be strong. MORMONS IN COUNCIL. It seems the Mormons are holding a confer ence this month it Kirtland, Ohio, the birth place ot that church. Kirtland is not far from Garfield's old home, and h'ere is still standing the old temple in which they wor shipped in "Joe Smith's" time It is historic ground and it was from this place that the handful of devr tees avere driven by popular opinion to seek another home. Under the leadership of Smith, their "prophet, priest and king," they started about ISJSin search of a promised land, really baring no definite place in view; but they had faith that they would be led by the hand of God, so when the little band, weary and foot sore, de scended into the valley of the Great S.ilt Lake, they felt assured tlut this was their home. It was the 24th of July when they came down the steep mounta'n side into a very paradise of verdure, kneeling and giving thanks as soon a they touched the waUrs of the river which they named Jordan. After these many years the ;nly surviving brother of Joe Smith is again at Kirkland, with per haps a view of eetting back to the faith as taught by Joe Smith, the present Mormons having degenerated from the tenets of the first prophet. The Mormon missions in the South are making many converts and have recruited hundreds of women and young girls for polygamous wives S3 bold are they that the legislature of Georgia passed a law pro hibiting these operation! of Mormon preachers. OUR BOOK TABLE. Th Ladies' Floral Cabinet is a magazine published in New 'ork, at 22 Vesey street. It is one of the very best publications of. the kind and is entirely devoted the floral cul ture, with hints on home decorations. Evory number is valuable to ladies who are ambi tious to beautify their homes and cultivate the minds. Harper's Young People U full of charming stories, with bits of natural history, accom panied with plenty of illustrations. All the matter is suited to children and calculated to have a refining and generous influence on the minds of the younjr. Every family of children should be allowed to get it every week. Harper's Monthly is a welcome friend, whose advent is watched for. The leaves are quickly cut by the lucky one. There is no place so far out and so lonely that Harper's cannot be found. Away in the mountains in the log cabins of the miner, cattlo or sheep herder can always bo found a well read Har per of some date. The monthly, weekly, the Bizar and the young folkes edition seem to fill requirements. The Century should be taken by every lover of good literature. It assumes a first place in the literary world, hiving a corps of editors of fint class reputation, while corres pondent are writing from all parts of the world, giving life-like pen sketches of foreign countries,. with illustrations combined. The Century and Harper's both have each an indi viduality of their own and both should come to the family table. RELIABLE SEED HOUSES. There is not much use in planting garden or flower seeds in Oregon much belore the first of May, for if put in sooner, unless in hot beds, the growth is slow and consequently poor plants. We name our advertisers so as to remind our friends that it's not too early to send for seeds. H. Hansen has reliable flower, garden and grass seeds at 82 First street, Portland. Geo. F. Sylvester, 317 Washington street, S. F., has alfalfa, clover and grass seeds. Miller Bros., at Second street, corner of Salmon, has Beeds of every kind, flower and vegetable, timothy, clover and spring rye, with bone phosphates to make all K'o'. D. M. Ferry, of Detroit, is a well known and reliable seed man of Detroit. D. K. Bliss, of New York, makes a specialty of peas Peter Henderson, of New York, is another old house, dealing in garden seeds alone. Lovett, of Little Silver, New Jersey, deals in small fruits, haviug raspberries as a specialty. ROSES. There is a general complaint among our lady friends that the past unfavorable and uncommonly hard winter has been destructive on the fine roses. To those who want more roses we would recommend Dirgee & Conard, who advertise in this paper. They grow ex tensively and having had roses from them can say that they have the best and are reliable. HOUSEHOLD HINTS. To relieve tootache apply to the trouble some tooth a tiny piece of cotton saturated with ammonia. A bit of cotton batting Bpnnkled with blaok pepper and wet with sweet oil and inserted in tbe ear win cure earacne. Da not throw away woolen stockings, even if the feet are entirely worn out, or are so thin as to warrant no more wearing; the legs make the best kind of stockings for a child of two years old, lUt a pattern irom a mtie bougnten pair, ana mane wun smau sun seams. If baby catches cold and it settles in his head and makes his nose into a rattle box, or, as grandmother says, "gives him thesniffl,' you may ease the little sufferer and enable him to sleep peacefully by greasing his nose and the bit of forehead direotly above the nose. For use at this time some animal oil is better than any that is manufactured When chickens are cut up, before cooking save some of the fat, try it out, and put the oil thus oh taiued in a wide mouthed bottle with a closely fitting cork; keep in a cool closet. This oil is excellent for the purpose named. Brown bread made by following these direc tions is sure to be good. Sift until thoroughly mixed together, half a pint of flour, one pint of corn meal, half a pint of rye flour, one tea spoonful of salt two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one tableapoonful of brown sugar. Peel, wash, and boil two medium sized pota toes; rub through a sieve and beat them well with half a pint of water. Make a batter of this and the meal, etc. Butter a deep bisin or small pan, and pour the batter in; then set the pan in a kettle of boiling water; let it eook in this wav for an hour. Cover the pan, of course, and put it in a hot oven for half an hour. , An old black bunting dress may be made to serve a further period of usefulness by being renovated and made a petticoat. The dust shakes out of bunting with so little effort of the wearer that it continues to be popular year after year. Kip the drees up, select the best for cleaning, buy five cent' worth of soap bark at any drug store, Jet it stand in water until ditsolved, if it is the pulverized; if not, you will be oblig-d to let it soak, and then steep it for a few minutes. Put your buntin in enough lukewarm water to cover it and turn the preparation in, rinteit up and down until the cloth is saturated with it; tlitn rir.EK it in clear water, which should be iukeuirmalio. The tflect upon the goods is . remarkable; it cleaose and restores. Black goodk of various kinds may be cleaned in tbe j same way, jjfoij $h. hildrrn. THE TRUSTFUL SPARROW. "This crum is mine," said Sparrow Gray, "The only crum I've hid to day, And I should bo a silly bird, , To give you half, nr even third ; For see! the ground is white with snow, And may be weeks for aught I know." "If 'tis,'' replied the younger bird, I'll tell you what I overheard! I heard some little children say In that great home across the way, How they should scatter crumbs of bread, So that every little bird miuht be fed, Till all the ice and snow were gone ; So cheer up. Pray don't look forlorn : I'd rather gaze on miles of snow Than see a bird with looks of woe." "You simple," twittered Sparrow Gray, "That's always just your heedless way, No matter whether ioul or fair, It's 'chirp, chirp, chirp' without a care. And now you think you'll bo well fed; I hope you haven't been misled ; But time will tell. G od day, Good day." And greedy Sparrow flew away. The little bird was left alone Poor wee, wee Sparrow, scarce half grownl The cold winds soon began to blow ; No shelter offered hich nor low ; But, mindful of the promised crumbs To the great hous at length he comes, A lit le shivering hungry bird. Then to the wind iw nhere he hea-d The children's voices straight he flies, And with his chirping Sparrow cries Soon brought th m thronging to his side. Then quick the eaih they opened wide. Strewed quick with crums the sheltered sill. Till wee, wee sparrow had his fill, And chirping soft, as if to say, "I thank you, thank you," flew away. Dear littla children ! dear wee bird 1 Could we but heed the premised Word Of One who keeps both great and small, And notes a single sparrow's fall. The Harpers. OUR LETTER BOX. There are only a few letters in hand, and we shall think the spring months are keeping our children so busy out of doors that they forget to write. The first letter this week comes from a lit tle Iowa girl, who tells of the cold and snow at her home. Some of our girls could tell her that we did not have any snow at all, and could at any time find green leaves and daisies where they were a little protected from the weather. Then we have had a bad win ter, too, at least we think it has been quite unfavorable for us. Lu Ella would never want to go back to Iowa if she rpent a winter hero. Rota is a Kansas girl, and she has sent a long letter. She hopes to see the ocean some time. It would please Aunt Hetty to see her. We want all the bright, smart girls we can get. Some one, perhaps, can answer her riddles. Only one letter this week from an Oregon girl. Jessie sends here card also. Aunt Hetty has a large collection of cards, which have been sent to her by her little friends of the Home Circle. Many are very pretty, and all are valued and kept. Jessie is learning verses in the Testament. We are glad to hear of even one r.f our girls who feels interested in doing this. A nice book is for the one who has learned the most verses in the coming six months. Jessie asks a question important in our own nation's history. Lysnville, Iowa, March 13, 1883. Editor Home Circle: I have been reading some of tho letters in the Farmer, and I thought I would write a few lines from Iowa. Wo have have had a very cold winter; the thermometer has been down to forty ilegeees below zero; the Bnow on our place was drifted to the height of twelve feet. We live on a farm of 120 acres, about six miles of Lynnville, and three miles from Sully. I would like to live here if it were not for the many storms. Our house is fronting the south, and the barn is at the west, with a grove towards tbe north and west. We live within three-quarters of a mite of a Quaker church and school house and a mite and a half of the Methodist Church. Please send me a copy of the Farmer. Yours truly, Lu Ella McCollum. Walnut, Kan., March 26, 1883. Editor Home Circle: lam a little girl 11 years old. I read the Farmer, and I read the little letters, and I thought I would write for the first time. I was born in Kansas. I like to live in Kansas very well, but maybe some day, when I am a big girl, I will go West to see the Rooky Mountains and tbe Pacific Ocean. I expect it is nice to live near the ocean, where there are so many pretty shells, ships and seaweed. I have been going ts school all winter. I study all the common braches. I walk two and a quarter miles morning and evening. I have not missed a day nor even a lesson. On my 11th birthday mamma let me cook my own dinner. I made biscuits, pies, cake, tea, boiled potatoes and fried meat; I set the table, too, but that was nothirg new; I often do that. Mamma says I did it well. I have four big sisters; they all have dark hair, like flax, too. We spent our evenings this winter in piecing quilts. One of my sisters is teach ing school The quilt she pieced is called Shade and Sunshine; it is made of worsted, and has 1,000 pieces in it. I will not stop to name the others we pieced. Mamn a quilted one of mine last week, and she let me help her quilt it. I am piecing another quilt called the Anchor. I live three and a half miles from Walnut. This town is not as old as I am. I was reading th lat Farmer acd saw a riddle given by Oscar B. Ely about pears, and I am going to try and guess it. One of the men was named Each, and he took a pear. Of course, eleven were left. If this is tbe right answer I would lie pleased to know, I guess I will close by giving a riddle, too: There was a room with eight corners. In each eorner sat a cat; before each cat rat seven other cats, and on each cat's tail sat a cat; how many cati in all ? If I see this letter in print I will write again. My best wishes to Aunt Hetty and success to the Farmer. Your little friend, Rosa Molli. New Era, March 28, 1883. Editor Home Circle: I thouifit I would write a letter this rainy day, 1 bad some eouse plants, hut the cold weather spoilt the looks of them; it killed the tops, but there are roots yet. I hare a flower bed; it did not hurt them. I like to work among tbe flowers; I hope all of you do. We lure tleren little chickens and a little calf. Fthr wants m to take care of tho littl chicks this summer. Our plum trees and cherry trees are in full bloom now. This is a very early spring. Mother has been gone from home two v. eeks; he has been visiting in Linn county, and is coming home to-morrow. I have been learning the verses that Aunt Hetty wanted us to, in the Testament. I am going to start to school the first ' May. I have a little neice two weeks old; her name is Jennie, We have a nice Sunday school; it meets every Sunday; and also a Bind of Hope. We speak pieces at the Band of Hope. I am going to ask a question in history, and want some of the little Iwys or girls to answer it : "Who drafted the Declaration of Inde peudonce ?" I think we do not take enough interest in our Letter Box. Come now, let us go to work and get up something interesting, and have the box full every week. 1 will send Aunt Hetty one of my cards. Please put my name on the temperance roll. Yours truly, Jessie Waldron, A Temperance Band. The following communication comes to the Home Circle, and is gladly received. It shows that the cause of temperance has good friends and workers away in the newer portions of our country. If only these young people will remain firm in theso principles as they get older, we may expect a tine community in the future, resulting from this little band : Nehalem, April 1, 1SS3. Editor Home Circle : I am a reader of the Homo Circle, and as you kindly invite correspondence from tho young people, I beg leave to present vou with a list of the members of the Nehalem Band of Hope foi publication, which we also desire put on your temperance roll. It is in a flour ishing condition, new members joining us nearly every meeting. Tho following are the names : T. J. Alley, Ldlie Dean, Herbert V. Alley, Laura Scovell, Daisy Dean, Stephen Scovell, Dolly Taylor, Grant Scovell, Winnie Hunt, Gilbert Dean, Amanda Taylor, Bud Taylor, William D. Taylor. Dick Taylor, George W. Steinhauer, Jr., Oron R. Batter son, Merritt S. Batterson, Mrs. F. G. Sco vell, Mrs. M. A. Alley, Olive Alley, J. M Alley. Yours truly, Herbert V. Aixev, Sec, of the Band, A Comfortable Breakfast. Most cooks have to hurry too much in pre paring breakfast in winter. They usually get up late, then have to hurry around to make up for Inst time; therefore cannot prepare many different dishes for this, their first meal, yet this meal should be one which can be relished by the entire family. In order to have it in good order and save time and labor preparation for it should be made the day previous while cooking the dinner and supper. Apples can baked or stewed, mush can be mnde and molded out to fry; potitons may bo boiled and left to fry or brown in the oven; meat boiled or roasted can either bo sliced or hashed with the remains of yesterday a din npr. Fresh eggs are always acceptiblo for break fast, nnd take but little time to prepare. Two or three of the above articles, with sweet wholesome bread or toast, frazrant coffee and eolden butter will make a good srbstantial breakfast, easily nnd quickly prepared. To say "good morning" from tho heart, one must have a fair prospect ot a good breakfast. In deeed, our enjoyment of the day depends very much on how we breakfast. Set your breakfast table where the shimmering beams of the sun will dance across it. A northern or western room is too chill and gloomy. Do not leave out the golden sky from your bright picture. Have the tabl cloth clean and pure and put on straight nnd smooth; aud let us leave the cracked china for other uses, for nothing mars n nicely set table so much at abused china, or mussed table cloth" or nap kins. The fact is that few of us make the most of what we have or might have just as well as not. While toiling after the coming fortune and pleasures to come, we overlook the present and the ninety and nine helps to nauy onioymeni an anoui us. uur pica is ior more of the cheap elegancies of life so easily obtained. inutana farmer. Arrangement of Rooms. Give your apartments expression, character. Rooms which mean nothing are cheerless, in deed. Study light and shade and combina tion and arrangement of drapery, furniture and pictures, allow nothing to look isolated, but let everything present an air of sociability. Observe a room after a number of people havo left it, and then, as you arrange the furniture disturb as little as possible the relative posi tion of chairs, ottomans and sofas. Please two or three chairs in a conversational attitude in some cheery corner, an ottoman within easy distance of a sofa, a chair near your staud of stereoscope views of engraving, and one where a good liuht will fall on the book which may reach from the table near. Make little studies of efTeot which shall repay the more than usual observer, and do not leave it possible for one to make the criticism which applies to so many homes, even of wealth and elegance, "fine carpets, handsome furniture and a few pictures, but oh how dreary I" The chilling atmosphere is felt at once and we cannot dive-t ourselves of tbe idea that we must maintain a stiff and severe demeanor, to accord with the spirit of tin place. Make your homes, then, so easy and cheerful that, if we visit you we may be joyous and un restrained and not feel ourselves out of har mony with our surroundings. Art Jlevkw. Ladles Lesrn to Knit. A writer shows a commendable interest for the ladies in anticipation of the old ag which awaits those of them who may live lone enough. The writer knows an old gentle- woman who enjoys a resource for amuements of which the customs of the prcsci.t period leprives her sex. To ever) aged, feeble and almost blind person, no occupation, or next to none, is left. This is to be thought of before the evil days shall actually come. What am 1 to do, the question should be saked, when tune' has robfed my limbs of the power of locomotion, hen the hand has loit its cun ning and the whole body is deprived of strength ? What am I to d, when my prayer to live has been favorably hear J and I arn in the extremity of age! The imtance before us furnishes an answer to one ot her own sex. Many an agreeable hour she cheats of wear! uess and sadners by the gentle occupying amusement vl knitting. What will the ladies do, who shall have the happiness to become venerable great-grand-mothers let them not be angry, thev will be lilad to be so in ignorance of this uaeful art as 'hey must be, in servile obedience to the des potic fashion of the hour. Tliev cannot dance now, they cannot play the piano and their voices have dried up with their bones. Is it rot as cruel to deprive the advanced in life, by the absurdities of early training, of occu pations to divert the long season of th ir de cline, as it would be to rob an old man of his staff? Ah I It is certainly worth while for all of us to ask the qu 'stion, what shall comfort and amuse us when e als i shall be old ? We heg our young lady readers to lay these th ughts tn hart, and learn to knit while they may. before tho evil days coino, avhen th-y shall wish they had takeu our advice. An old lady knitting is quite an agreeable sight to us. Making Bread. It is a trite cqinson that poor bread- makers aro oftem r the cause of poor bread than the poorness of the flour. Of course we allude to bread made in families. A lady whr has a reputation ns a bread maker par excellence, furnishes us the following, which we publish for the benefit of millers and those "f their customers who complain of poor flour : One two-cent cake of compressed yeast will raise flour enough for four medium sized loaves of bread. Crumble the yeast into a bowl, being very careful not to handle it too much, sprikle on it two tcaspooofuls of sugar nurt pour over it a pint of lukewarm water. In the courre of teu minutes the yeast will I avo risen to the top. Then stir it until it is all dissolved. Mako a hole in tho cent T of tho flour nnd pour in tho yeast. Stir it with tho flour until it is a thick batter. Sprinkle salt around the edges whero the pan is heaped up, taking care to keep the salt away from the sponge, as it is apt to give it a slightly bitter taste. Set the pan in a warm place. The most important thing is to keep it free from draughts. A draught of cold air from an open door or window has spoiled many a batch of broad. Ir the temperature of the kitchen is warm and even, say 70 degrees F,, the bread will be nicer if it is raised away from the fire; other wise it should be kent moderately warm. In an hour the sponge will be light and feathery, VA.J .l. l..J ..!.U ..1f.-l.lt ...-...-. .I ln jvutxtu iuu uruau witu Bluntly wuriutrii nmui. Never use entirely cold water, but always havo it wjrmer in winter than in summer. Good kneading is essential tn good bread. If the dough is Kept in the right temperature, free from draughts, it wi'l hive raised again in two and a half or three hours. Then it can be mculded into loaves, wh n it should be again well kneaded, so as to get all the air out of it, and put into the pans. After standing for another hour it will be ready for the oven. from forty minutes to an hour will bake tt, according to the size of the loaves and the heat of the oven. The best way Ii to have tho oven sufficiently hot to brown the loaves when they have been iu twenty minutes. Then cool t iu oven somewhat and let them finiih baking slowly. American Miller. A witty nobleman once asked a clorical gentleman at the bottom of the table, why a gooso, when there was one, was always placed next to the parson. "Really, my lord," said the clergyman, "your question is somewhat difficult to answer, and so remarkably odd, that I vow I shall never see a gooso again without being reminded of your lordship,' Alaska Excursion.
