WILLAMETTE FARMER: PORTLAND, OREGON, JUNE 8, 1883. 7 fyt !on(c Jtrcle. MRS. IIARniOT T. CLARKE, Editor. A SEKMON IN FLOWERS Just beyond this field of clever is a pasture, rouqh and rocky, Where the goldenrod and thi'tle, and the trai'ing wr odbine grow i There, one day, I tuard this sermon, most pathetically simple, Yet so fraught with truth and wisdom that it set my heart aglow; "I am just a little flower just the plainest wildest flower, Growing here upon a rook, with very little soil or shade; I am stunted, palo and crooked quite unlike my brothers yonder. With their tall, green stalks and yellow plumes, that never droop nor fade. "But I care not He who planted, knew just how much soil and sunshine, How much rain and wind, were needful to unfold the flower He planned; So He gave them and I grew, to tell my story with its lesson : What am I, that I should murmur at His wise and just command ? "Quite enough for me to know that I am just as He designed me; So I never lose my joy, in sighs for what I might have been; tlod looks down in love and mercy T look up in perfect trusting, And I loe the earth and air, the pain as well joy therein. Man may'sing a song most sweetly, which his utmost soul despises t Ho may preach a sermon boMly, which his heart his never known; All have sinned and this sad knowledge makes us loth to look for guidance To ourselves or to our brothers and we cannot walk alone 1 But a bird can trill a message, or a thunder burst proclaim it, Far beyond the faintest shade of doubt, with meaning full and broad; And the modest little wild flowers, though we crush them with our footsteps, Bruised and dying, preach their sermon, and wo know it comes from God. .Flower Gardening. I ish that I could impress upon every woman the necessity of cultivating floweis, for e en one pot of (lowers will exhale brightness around her, and gio her pcaco which parses understanding. Weary with the daily rotino of cooking, baking, sew ing and making over garments, how many women this day will sit down per fectly discouraged with the burden they arc forced to endurol Now if from nil this needful drudgery of life, they could turn to a window full of flowering plants, and water them, and dig up the soil around their roots, and remove their faded leacs, nlmot insensibly their hearts would be come lighter, and their souls brighter, and with renewed zeal they would return to their tasks. I hae kept fle windows filled with plants through this long winter over four months of unbroken sleighing and snow-drifts and eery cold night they luc been put to sleep with the jiewspapeis tucked behind them and around them, and only once when the mercury fell 28 degrees below zero were any of them lemoved from the casements. Not a plant has been chilled, although they a e had to depend upon an open firo'on the health in one loom, and n soai-stovo in the adjoining room. And now they are filled with buds and flowers, and repay mo tenfold for nil my atten tions. Do laise flowers, my dear sisters, and learn for -oursches their heavenly mission. Let tho little children hac their own flow er garden where they can dig and plant at their own sweet will, and re fine then hearts by their toil among tho plants, for it is, indeed, the nleasantcst labor which God has given us Tho richest home is truly poor without the flowers which the pooie-t homo can also possess, for a fie-cent packet of flower seeds will make the most humble surroundings beautiful. Among tho noelties of last season, and aNoof tin-, tho Miiglo dihlias take fore most rank, and the fashion of flowers is now straying to single flowers, rather than double one-. There aie six new arieties of the now singlo dahlias, which aie much sought after, both in England and tho United States Queen of the Whites was tho priVo dahlia nt tho flower shows last year; Imperial Prince has deep purple flow ers shaded to dark red; Paragon has rich, w.um petals edged with scarlet; Lutea is of lemon color, shaded to dark orange; Lord LyndhuM of a brilliant scarlet, and Juareil, tho now cactus dah lia, is of a purplish scarlet, nnd is very peculiar in tho shape of its petals. These singlo dahlias will grow easily fiom the seed, and if planted early enough in tho season w ill bloom in the autumn, and a led of them can be raised in this way as readily as a bed of zinnias, nnd new vari eties w ill lie obtained from seeds. The new varieties of French marigolds, with str ped petals of bright yellow and dark brow n, are very beautiful. They are dwarf in habit, and aro entirely covered with lnreo flowers as double the old- fashioned soup mangolds. o raiding out flower can surpass them in leauty. The new varieties of mignonette aro also well worthy of having a place in eerv flower garden. Not only the color of the flowers, but tho size of the pike, have been lately much improved: and Golden Queen, Jefleries' Snow White, Miles' Inbrid Spiral, ew Uiant anu tno Priie. aro all so desirable and beautiful that no one will ever regret purchasing all them. Tim vnnVties of Mimulus. or " monkey flower" have alw ays lieen lovely for baskets i: .frrvwl n iiw ses, and now we are offered a new y with six long Latin names at-1 or vases; variety tached. but one will suffice, .r, .1I1IUUIU9 for liedding- will entirely nobilis, which is perfection out purposes, as ita flowers cover the bright green leaves. These plants aro nNo suitable for baskets, ases and house culture. Pansies are first favorites of mine ; their endless varieties nnd sweet faces mnko them needful for every garden. For lor ders or edgings of beds in the lawn they are very desirable, as well ns for growing en masse. Tho chief novelty of the sea son is Lord Beaconsfield, which hns very largo flowers of deep purple, shading off to white on the top of each petal. Tho now German varieties nre also very beau tiful, nnd are a decided improvement upon the older kinds. Snow Queen is like its name, with petals of a satiny gloss, and has a yellow eye. Petunias are rapidly growing in beauty and desirability for IkmIs in lawns or in the garden. The Hybrid Grandillora variety has lovely flowers, with bars or markings in white, re-ciubling n star upon purple or crimson petals. Hybrida bril- liantrose is a distinct vnrietv; it has bril liant rose-colored (lowers, with n throat shaded to blush or white. Iljbrida nana compacta, as its name denotes, is of a dwarf, compact habit, nnd blooms plen tifully, nnd its flowers aie of a bright red, with a white star upon them. The double nnd single fringed varieties are of tho brightest shades of crimson, purple and scarlet, flecked nnd blotched with white, and aie as handsome as any flowers that can bo procured. They w ill grow readily from seed. P. lobusta (lore pleno has beautiful double flow era of many hues, which cover the plant entirely, nnd a bed of them will be an additional ornament to the most beautiful garden. Rlgbt-Handedness. Mr. Charles Rendu wrote one or two letters some time ago to a morning paper condemning the practice of nurses and mothers who discouraged children from using the left hand, and thus render it comparatively unserv iccable. Nature, he maintained, has made no distinction be tween the right and left extremities of the body ; and but for tho existence of a fool ish prejudice in favor of the light hand, both limbs might be rcndeied equally useful. Dr. Gaetan Delaunay has just communicated nn inteicsting paper to the Fiench Anthropological Society, in which he insisted that right-handedness is not an acquired habit, but is a natural attribute characteristic of tho superior laces. Savage tribes, he states, nnd com munities in an inferiorstato of civilization show a much lnrgci proportion of left- hnndedness than highly civilized people do. The Annamites, for instance, are noted as a left-handed eoplo; and ne groes, according to Uniting, are equally developed on both sides of tho body, the right and left-hnnded extremities possess ing exactly the same power nnd weight. Idiots and epileptics, again, oner a ery large percentage of left-handed individu als; and thcie aro more left-handed women than men. Infants, Dr. Delaunay says, nro left-handed nt first (Mr. Reade adduced this fact in support of his theory) ; as they grow older they become both-handed, and eventually right- hand ed. In old nge, however, there is a marked tendency to both-handedness again. His general conclusion is that in the evolution of tho species theie lias been a steady ten dency to tho development of the right side of tho body nt the expense of tho other, nnd that the examples of left-hand- edness still to bo met w ith in the superior races nro Gnzette. mero survivals St James's CHOICE RECIPES. Buttermiik MuFriNS One quart of sour milk, two eggs, one teaspoonful of soda dissolved in warm water, a teaspoon ful of salt and flour sufficient to make a good batter. Beat the eggs well, stir them into tho milk, then add the flour and and lnstly tho soda. Bake in a quick oven. Cream Cookifs Cream cookies are made of ono cup of butter, one cup of hugar, three tablespoonfuls of sweet cream, half a teaspoonful of cream of tartar, and half a teaspoonful of soda; flavor with cinnamon or nutmeg, or if you wish to havo them very delicate, flavor with ex tract of lemon or with rose water. Douoiisi'TS Ono cup of white sugar, two eggs, one cup sweet milk, two largo spoonfuls melted butter and two table spoonfuls baking jiowder; knead just as little as will cnabloyou to get them to the kettle, "By the way, make your own bak ing powder, then you will be sure that it is pure. Cookies Ono and a half cups of sugar, two eggs, half a cup of butter, half cup sour cream, w ith half teaspoon soda dissolved in it; stir these together, not bating the eggs, nnd roll out ns soft as can bo cut ;bako quick. The most careful cook is liable to spill hot grease on the clean kitchen floor. A good vv ay to remov e it is as follow s : First, pour cold water on the grease, at once, to prevent its penetrating into the wood of the floor. Then, to take out tho spot, take a piece of ordinary blotting-paper, place it over it, and on this place a warm flat-iron. The grease will bo drawn from the floor into tho paper; change the nailer seeral times. Affor tliis treatment soap and hot water will remove the last vestiges of the unsightly grease spot, and tho housewife can again bo happy. Buck Walvi't Stai.v The following has been used a long time by the writer; Water, ono quart ; washing soda, one and n half ounce; vandyko brown, two and a half ounces; bichromate- of potash, one quarter ounce;.

Hiccough can bo inuncniatelv relieved by administering a lump of sugar wet with vinegar. Hemorrhage of the langs or stomach is promptly checked by smnll doses of snlt. The patient should be kept as quiet as possible. Hoarseness and tickling in tho throat arc best best relieved by the gargle of the white of an egg, beaten to n froth, in half aglassof warm, sweetened water. If persons who aro suffering from a sev er headache would tie a handkerchief tightly nround the temples they would find great relief by so doing in a very short time. A tcnspoonfulof charcoal in half a glass of warm water often relieves a sick head ache It absorbs the gases nnd relieves tho distended stomach, pressing against the nerves that extend from the stomach to the head. When one has a bad cold nnd tho noso is closed up so that ho cannot breathe through it, relief may be found instantly by putting a little camphor and water in the center of tho hand and snuffing it up the nose. I is a great relief. A good lomedy for warts and corns: Drop some vinegar on the wait or corn, cover it immediately with cooking soda or saleratus, and let it remain ten min utes. Repeat this soveial times a day for three days, and the w arts and coins will be gone. Charcoal foims nn unrivaled poultice for wounds and old sores. It is also inval uable for what is called proud flesh. It is a great disinfectant. It sweetens tho air if put in shallow dishes nround the npait- ment, and foul water is also purified by its use. These is nothing better for a cut than powdeied resin. Get a few cents worth, pound it until it is quite fine, put it in a cast-off spice box with perforated top, then you can easily sift it on the cut. Put n soft cloth nround the injured member, nnd wet it with water once in awhile, and it will pi event inflammation or soreness. Foi bruises or spmins batho tho part in cold water until vouget leady a decoction of woimwood and vinegai. When the heib is fiesh gathered pound tho leaves, wet with vinegar and bind on, and when the herb is dry put it in the vinegar nnd let it boil for a sboittimo; then bathe the bruise with the decoction and bind on the heib Thevt.mevt of Ciiot'i' Raby was thieatened with croup last night, but that disease is no longer n tenor to me. As soon nj she commences to cough I rise quickly, pick up tho fust piece of cloth I can find, turn somo spirits of ttupentine on it, and quickly cover it with tallow, which I alw ays keep in the loom. I then heat this cloth nnd quickly put on the wholo chest nnd throat. 1 he cough ceases nnd bnby is soon bieatlnng freely. I never confine tho cloth, and she loses it oft' next morning without nny bad effects following Mrs. R. Haggaids Mill, Ga., in Farm and Fireside. The Farmer's Dos I don't think it is right for n farmer to keep any other kind of a dog but n " shep herd," unless hois "well fixed "nnd takes an interest in shooting; then he, of course, should keep a setter. I have seen many fanners in oidinnry circumstances who kept a pack of hounds, but 1 never saw one that kept hounds but ho had a mortgago on his farm, and found it more urgent to chase a fox in winter than to feed his half-starving stock. Why should the shepherd bo called tho fanner's dog? 1st. Because if properly trained, a collie is worth three men at driving and herding cattle, sheep, hogs or poultry. 2d. They are vigilant guaid ians of their master's property ; always watchful, night and day. 3d. They nro kind to children ; know who treats them well. 4th. They aio excellent ratters, and will generally make their master's premises an unhealthy place of residence for all ei m in. The Scotch collies havo been purely hied for so many vears to a useful stand ard, that it is just" as natural for them to drive and herd stock ns it is for n bull-dog to take hold of its adversary and hang with its usual tenacity. It is no great trouble to break a collie ; it only requires patience. It is necessary that they should beworked regularly, more especially when young, or in tho absenco of the master they will tako it uion themselves to work on their own account. I havo known a collio pup to work four or the hours at a time with a flock, not playing or loudly barking, but ho would tako the sheep nnd put them nil in one small bunch, carefully putting back each old ewe who thought herself privileged to stray. After becom ing satisfied with holding them, he would let a pirt of tho flock go and hold tho bal ance. Then ho would scatter tho wholo flock, only to "bunch" them again in a few minutes. Accustom your pup to your particular work ; be careful not to use harsh meas ures ; never stnke or kick him. If ho needs severe punishment, give him a switching, but always bo quite sure that he knows what tho whipping is for. If once the will is broken tho dog will always be afraid to do your bidding for fear of punishment. Always reward his obodi ence with a kindly pat or two, or a bit of food. They like to bo caressed and petted, and in return are all attention to your wishes, and ready to do an) thing they understand you want. If a farmer keeps a dog for no useful purposes whatever, ho will find a shepherd dog to be an orna ment to his place, as a more beautiful member of his species does not exist.

BABIES EVERYWHERE. Here and there, here and there, Babies, babies everywhere Copper-colored, white and brown, In the woods and in the town. Far towards the Northern pole Little babies romp and roll Little bvby Esquimaux, In a world of ice and snow. Little Chinese babies too, Wang Cli3 Chang and Chi Chung Loo, Look in babyish surprise From their narrow almond-eyes ; Learn as litt'e babies can To hold their chop sticks, wave their fan, To eat their plate of snowy rice, And now and then a roast of mica. In a sunny island home, Where the great ships go and come, Babies frolic in the breeze, Underneath the orange trees. Where the starry heavens span waving palms ot iiinctostin In the land of gems and silk, Babies sip the cocoa-milk ; Play with ivory rings and bills By the fearful mountain walls ; Ride with baby merriment On a tall, tame elephant. Knglish babies sweet and fair ; Germans with soft, flaxen hair, Dark Italians with mamma Floating in a gondola. Bibies diamond, pearl and opal, From Norway to Constantinople ; Precious jewels every one, The dearest things beneath the sun. But which of all that I have told Is sweetest, dearest, just pure gold Made of many mingled charms ? Why, of course the baby in my arms. Mrt. F. il. Butts. NOTICE.

AuvT Hetty. OUR LETTER BOX Last week thcroweie not enough let ters to use, so we have a good number of them this week to make up for the disap pointment of last week. Perhaps it is a good thing for you all to have no letters for one week or so; it will make you prize them more, and perhaps it will set some of vou to thinking that it is selfish to lead letters nnd fail to write one for others to rend. The first one this week comes from the "Dead Letter Office." That is n funny sort of nn offico, is it not? Just think of dead lettcis, as if it weio possible there could be such n thing. Veiy fewgrovvn up people realize what a wonderful, in structive and extensive business our postal system is. Think of the millions of letters that are every ( ny shooting through the country, cniried by tho gov ernment to tho remotest coiners "of our country, and then think how very few of these letters fail to roach their destina tion ; and if one docs fail, it is always tho fault of the one who sends it. In this caso our little friend did not put the three cent stampon it. But seo how truo and faithful Undo Sam is to his charge. Whenever there is s letter found in any post-office that is not properly addressed, it is sent on to Washington City, where there are men and women clerks to examine all such letters and send them on again. It is said that there is an immense loom in that building w hero is kept all the arti cles which have been found in tho mails, and which havo failed to reach their des tination. Thousands and thousands of dollars havo gono into tho United States Treasury from this source. All sorts of articles nro found nnd kept here, forming a perfectly wonderful curiosity shon Harriet Klia got tho prio in her Sun day school for learning tho most verses. Wo arc glad to hear it, nnd do hopo it will cause other girls to try to emulate her. She is a live trirl if her letter did go to tho Dead Letter Office. Laura May must have a busy life in attending to so mnny (hicks, but then there can always bo found timo enough to have somo fun if ono tries to plan the work. Wo must get up very early in tho morning to feed chicks, for they always got out as soon as tho sun is up or sooner, and ought to be fed so that the mother hen may not draggle the chicks through tho dewy grass Especially ono mutt be careful of young turkeys, anil keep them shut up till almost noon Bo good to Curley and he will be iwful, hut a dog that is kicked and scolded can't ! made to be of any use at all.

Somo loys think it is fun to "can" flogs or stray horses It is only cowardly and vulgar, and wo hope to seo our joung folks always on tho side of tho weak and de fenseless, ad not )o afraid to speak straight out for tho right that would lx) showing moral courage.

Editor Homo Circle: As my last letter was printed I will write again. It scorns as though there Wire not many Utters this week. I was surprised when I stw there woro n it any in the last paper. Yesterday it rained pretty hard, but It is nice weather again to-day. We have sixteen little turkeys, seven little ducks, two gos lings and sixty chickens. We have nearly all of our garden made. Uncle William has nearly all of his crop in. I will try to answer Rosa Mullin's i iddle about the cats. There were one hundred and twenty-eight. If this is right I would like to know.

Editor Home Circle: As I have been reading tho Hon.e Circle for some time, I thought 1 would writo a let ter. My papa has been taking the Fakmkr for some time, and he thinks it a very good paper. I like to read the Home Circle very much. I am a little girl 11 years old. I live six miles from Aurora. I will tell tho littlo cousins what I got Christmas, and would liko the cousins to tell what they got. I got a nice cornucopia, some ribbon and a handker chief. As I havo no pets to write about, I will tell about my two little nieces. They are both the Bweetost littlo blue eyed girls lever saw. There is a Sunday school within two miles of my homo. The superintendent offered a prize to the one that would memorize the most versos. I got tho prize; it was a very nice book. I think Aunt Hetty is very good and kind for wanting all tho girls and boys to learn the Testament and learn to do good. What has become of Katie S.?. Please put my name and my sister Grace's name on the temperance roll. H. E. M. Haynls. The Lay of the Land. But few people comprehend that the Pa louse country is a vast inclined plane. In viewing the country from the summit of an adjoining mountain, it seems to be a vast level expanse of low hills, which have the ap pearanco of having been drifted into their various shapes by the regular southwest winds that have swept across this country during ages of timo. There is no exception to one feature of this country. Every hill, either great or smill, has tho moro trradual slope upon its south side. The steepest hills are meet in traveling south. The mountains ex tend north and south along the oast lino ot tho county, from whence the wholo country slopes off to the west at a much greater de scent than one would supposo by viewing the surface with the eye.
