FARM, GAEDEN AND HOUSEHOLD
Destroying; SItis
Vick's Magazine has the following plan
lor catching slugs : Take some pieces of
slate, or flat stones, or flat pieces of tin,
and lay them about in the garden among
the plants, distributing them very liber
ally; just at sundown go out and place a
teaspoon fifl of brand on each piece of
slate or tin, and the slugs will soon be
come aware of it, and begin to gather and
feed on it. In about two hours, when it
is dark, go out again with a lantern and
A pail containing salt and water, and
pick up each piece on which the slugs are
found feeding, and throw slugs and bran
. into the brine, where they instantly die.
It is well, also to go around in the morn
ing; and many slugs will bo found hid
ing under the pieces of slate, and can be
destroyed in the brine. By following up
this method persistently for a few weeks
"the garden may be effectually rid of the
nuisances. .
Facts in Asparagus Culture.
The 'Culture of Asparagus" was the
subject for discussion at a late meeting
of the Massachusetts Horticultural so
ciety. As the opinion expressed were
mostly from well known and practical
gardeners, they are here given in con
aensed form. Facts established by the
discussion were that an asparagus bed
may be made last twenty years, the
plants are never infested with insects,
-and the crop never fails.
The best soil for asparagus is a deep
sandy loam. Tree from stones. If the
ground be lumpy or stony the young
shoots will come up crooked. The land
is prepared oy plowing deeply ana work
ing in a heavy dressing of manure, after
which it is harrowed and thrown into
ridges about four feet apart, with a large
- plow going several times in the same fur
row. lhe furrow is then shoveled out
J 1 4 i .1 i
uu uic (Hums su-L m uuuui one loot
apart in the row, with a little fine ma
nure around them in the bottom of the
furrow. The plants should extend in
one direction, otherwise the row will
spread out and become irregular, m
The third year from setting the plants
win bear cutting, 'lhe bed ought to be
manured every year; if this is done in the
spring, the manure should be. fine and
. free from lumps; in the fall the lumps
are . of no consequence. The manure is
spread and plowed in or worked in with
a disk harrow. The land is worked again
after cutting is over with harrow or plow
um wiui uuiuvaior us mo growxn ap
pears above ground. Old beds, unless
especially well cared for, become un
profitable after ten or twelve years' cut
ting.
Marshall P. "Wilder thought it had
teen proven that an annual application
manure is sumciem; no did not DO
lieve in the economy of expensive prep
aration of the bed. The great secret in
applying manure, in his opinion, is to
uavc ii n cu uctumpuseu anu put in near
' the surface. He preferred, for his own
table, medium-sized stems, though there
is a saving of time in bunching the large
stems.
Mr. Hartwell, of Lincoln, has been in
the habit of manuring his asparagus in
the spring, because it is a convenient
iime. He thought the small plants from
.chance seed in an asnararus bed as in
jurious as are so many weeds, and that
the ripening seed is a drain upon the
' energy of the plant. He had found no
advantage in the use of salt. Mr. Hunt,
of Concord, had used saltpetre waste
ironi a powder factory with some bene
fit, and would use some good super
phosphate, if manure was scarce, but
aid not think salt of any special bene
fit. MrWilder said that the "French pro
duced large white shoots of asparagus
by piling manure on the rows. Mr.
Philbrick told how white asparagus may
be grown by running a plow between the
rows anc. throwing up ridges over them.
As soon as the sprouts show they are
cut by thrustinar down a lon knife.

Farm and Garden Notes.
Keep a mixture of salt and wood ashes
in your horse's manger. Good stockmen
everywhere unite in saying it prevents
disease, and is in every way an excellent
tonic.
Real poor ground will not grow clover,
and a farmer is throwing away money
to sow his seed upon it, until he has pre
ceded the sowing with an application of
manure.
Sheep losing wool, says the American
Agriculturut, may be relieved of the irri
tation by a mixture of equal parts of sul
phur and cream of tartar, given in half
ounce doses.
Raw manure fresh from the stable is in
jurious to young fruit trees. Use wood
ashes as a fertilizer where they can be ob
tained in sufficient quantities. Apply
bountifully as far as they go.
Pen your sheep at night on the poorest
T,01a f o i
a. u una jl juui iiciu.. ouw grass seed
after them and you will very soon rec
ognize the value of the meek and lowly
snecp as a leriinzing macnine.
Should any vermin render the life of
nis calfship miserable, bear in a mind that
a mixture of lard and sulphur ' rubbed
alcng the back and sides will cause him
. to look on the bright side of life.
Keep the horse collars clean. The dust
'and dirt which adhere to. collars when
they arc wet with sweat works into lumps
' and ridges, and sore shoulders are the re
sult. If the collars become hard wash
them clean, pound them and apply oil.
Be careful not to overfeed any of your
farm animals. X ounder is dimcult to re
lieve, and an animal suffers from the
effects of overfeeding for a long time
after the temporary pain has been re
moved. , It is much safer to, let your
stock fast occasionally , than to cram
' them at any time.
Save a corner of the garden for a few
aromatic herbs. They thrive nicely along
the sunny side of the garden fence, and
they will require a deep ana iainy ncn
soil. Thyme, summer savory and sage
are great additions to many soups and
stews. Cut them just before they bloom
on a bright, sunny day. Tie them in
bunches and hang up to dry.
A writer in a scientific journal ridicules
the idea that apples sweat, and that they
must undergo a sweating process before
they are put in barrels in order to keep
well. He states that only injury comes
from leaving apples in piles in an orchard,
and that the moisture found on them
comes from the atmosphere. He recom
mends placing them in barrels as soon as
they are picked.
An experimentalist has discovered that
old buttermilk or sour milk poured
over the cabbage heads two or three times
a week will destroy the green cabbage
worm. When we consider how much
pork and poultry might be raised from
the milk that would be necessary to del
uge an acre of cabbages two or three
times a week we scarcely feel like recom
mending the remedy to our readers.
A writer takes exception to the feeding
of hogs on offal and garbage, and says
that such swine arc not civilized. In
general the pig eats what is set before
him, and its quality is rather indicative
of his owner's or feeder's civilization. In
this country, except in cities, hogs are
fed mainly on grain, vegetables and milk.
Pork thus produced ought t6 be and is
healthy food for any stomach strong
enough to digest it.
Most farmers sow too much seed. The
plants crowd each other, and the result
is a smaller crop with inferior grain. It
has been found where two bushels of
grain have been sown per acre that taking
out one-half bushel of the lightest grains
will leave enough to produce a larger
crop than the whole. The large grains
produce strong plants which start vigor
ously, and thus at harvest make a crop
which will be like its s?ed, plump and of
full weight.
To raise a good crop of onions two im
portant facts must be observed. They
must have a rich, loamy soil, made as fine
as possible by thorough cultivation, and
they must be kept free from weeds. Use
well rotted manure, in which case, if it
contains weed and grass seed, their vital
ity will be impaired. For poor or stiff
clayey soil give a liberal application of
wood ashes. Test your seed before plant
ing the entire crop, and sow as soon after
the middle of March a3 the weather wil)
permit.
Household Recipes and Hints. .
A little powdered charcoal will cleanse
and sweeten bottles if well shaken about
in them.
Arrow root is excellent to thicken the
gravy to be poured over toast. It has a
good flavor and is very nourishing.
It is said by one who ought to know,
that cold tea is a good fertilizer for house
plants, and that occasionally it is a good
plan to put some tea-ground3 or leaves of
earth around the plant-roots.
Paint which has become dry and hard
may be removed by rubbing the spot
with oxalic acid diluted with water. Try
a weak solution first, and if it does not
remove the stain, increase the strength.
Sweet biscuits are made in this way:
If economy is no objeet, set a sponge
over night of one pint of sweet milk, the
whites of six eggs, one quarter of a pound
of butter, one quarter of a pound of sugar.
Beat well, add flour until it is about like
ordinary bread sponge. In the morning
knead in flour to make it still enough to
roll. Bake in a moderate oven.
Fish, almost more than anything else,
is improved by slow cooking; especially
is this true when the fish is boiled. If
cooked rapidly it will fall apart, and will
neither taste or look so well. The great
point insisted upon by scientific cooks
of the present day is this of taking abund
ant time to prepare food in, and the fact
that nothing is gained by rapid boiling.
Welsh cookies are made of two cups
of sugar, one cup of butter, and two-
thirds of a cup of sweet milk with one
teaspoonful of bi-carbonate of soda dis
solved in it. Beat two eggs quite light
and add them, mix two teaspoonfuls of
cream of tartar with a quart of flour, mix
this in, then add more flour, if needed,
to form a smooth dough which can be
easily rolled. Flavor with cinnamon,
cut in fancy shapes, and "bake in a quick
oven.
A correspondent asks for exact direc
tions for making yeast. The following
rule is in constant use in my own and
many other families, and if made accord
ing to this you cannot fail to have satis
factory yeast, and the bread made with
it is sweeter and more wholesome than
when any patent or "boughten" yeast is
used. . Take six good-sized potatoes, one
quart of water, a large handful of hops
in a little bag, a tablespoonful of sugar,
and one of salt; put all together and
cook until the potatoes are soft enough
to mash readily: then take them out.
