THE HOUSEHQLID>=2=§mppllememm

 

A WINTER LANDSCAPE .

 

The palm for beauty is not usually
given to a country scene in winter, the
meadows snow-covered,’the streams ice-
bound, the trees toSsing bare branches
under lowering, leaden skies, yet in a
recent trip out of town I was impressed
by the beauty of such a landscape, as seen
in glimpses from the car windows. In the
stretches of snowy fields there was yet
sometimes a gleam of summer where the
yellow stubble glinted goldenly in the
sunshine. Esthetlc cat-tails rose stiff
and rigid from their icy beds, and clusters
of autumnal asters and golden-rod were
still decked in the semblance of bloom,
like old folks in youthful trappings, the
brown, strawy calyx of the flowers, rob—
bed by the wind of every feathered seed.
Trim brown snow-birds were searching
empty seed capsules for possible food,
and swinging on the bending stalks,
cheerful and happy under the winter
weather. Tangled thickets caught a tinge
of color from the bright red of bitter-
sweet and wild rose berries, or the deeper
color of red osier; while every leafless
tree stood clearly defined against the sky.
Some one has said that the charm of a
winter scene lies in the grace and delicacy
of its outlines. And every tree has its own
individuality, so that we readily recognize
it by its branching. Who could mistake
the elm, with its long, graceful, drooping
branches, the sturdy. strong branching
of the hickory, the widespreading wal-
nut, with its suggestion of summer shade?
The swamp oak, with its many gnarled,
heavy, angular boughs, suggests that it
has had ahard time growing, taking its
nourishment in small doses and making
small progress in any direction; while the
poplar’s upright, regular divisions make
it as well known by this as by its white,
spongy bark on which rustic lovers cut
their names.

These barren branches which reveal so
clearly every malformation of the tree,
every dwarfed bough, every broken t ,
remind us of “poor humanity” when d-
versity has stripped away adventitious
aids and brought out the real character_
When summer verdure is gone, we see the
real shape of the tree, so under trouble’s
touch man shows his native disposition.
It is easy to be generous when one’s
hands are full; to be kind - and
amiable and sweet-tempered, when hap-
piness and plenty crown the life. Says
Becky Sharp, “ I could be good if I had
ten thousand pounds a year.” As we

 

sometimes see a tree grown crooked and
awry among its fellows and wonder why
it is not straight and beautiful as they,
only to find it grew among them as best
it could, bending here and turning there.
yet ever growing upward, so, when the
veil of circumstances is torn from some
lives, we see how surrounding influences
controlled and directed, shaping the soul’s
destiny. An oaken torso, beheaded and
with limbs lopped off, stands a type of
the barrenness of life when lived for self
alone; while of the symmetrical, fully
developed tree, which like a well ordered
life, adds grace and charm to all surround-
ings through its own beauty and utility,
the poet says:

“ Not a prince,
In all that proud old world beyond the deep,
E’er wore his crown as loftily as he
Wears the green coronal of leaves with which
Thy hand has graced him."
BEATRIX.

COOKING AS A FINE ART.

 

A friend of the Household Editor’s, to
whom a copy of the FARMER for January
29th was sent, containing the question
propounded to the Household as to
whether it is or is not necessary that a
woman should spend her whole life in
learning to keep house, sends in reply a
letter which though not intended for pub—
lication, she takes the liberty to publish,
as showing the masculine valuation of
cooks and cooking:

“Beatrix” occasionally indulges in
bright but queer fancies. The article in
question might be regarded as a partial
stroke of fancy. Don’t you know that
cooking has now become the highest of
all arts, the highest because the most
useful? A cook, if a good one, is not
only a commander, but the commander-
in-chief of all the social forces. He is the
most important personage in the realm,
receives more blessing and damnation
than any other human being, hence is the
most consequential person in any State or
nation. It is proverbial that the man who
has a good cook in the person of his wife,
has a good wife—one who is worth some-
thing—no matter if she does use the
shovel and tongs inappropriately. Em~
phatically does the judgment of man-
decree that the lady who can relieve the
“ aching void ” with “ the best the market
affords,” “done up ” in the enlightened
art of the French cuisine, deserves a place
in the heavens of heavens, where final re-
wards are only given to the best, the good
and the true. The art of arts ought not
to be slighted but rather commended to
the attention of those who desire length

 

of days with good cooking thrown in.
There was a lady here lately from the
East, a Miss Corson, who gave lessons in
the culinary art to delighted audiences in
the neighboring village of Berkely. It
is the seat of the California University
and also of a Young Ladies’ Seminary.
She stopped there about ten days, and
took away with her 480 California dollars,
as profit clear after all bills were duly
paid. Her lectures found daily report in
the papers, and were admired for their
practical character. Once she cooked a
meal for half a dozen in a silk dress,
and did not get a spot on it, either. cShe
did that to show experimentally that neat-
ness and cleanliness can be as well ob-
served in the kitchen as in the parlor.
Though I did not attend, saw not, and
heard not, yet I acquired a great respect
for that most useful of all domestic angels
that come in the presence of men. She is
a “capital gal.” let me tell you. one of
some account in the world; unlike two
female orators from abroad who were
here lately and preached on the horrors
of intemperance, how the poor wives were
kicked, knocked around, and tumbled
over by drunken brutes of husbands, and
how the Wicked men deny to them the
right to vote and hold “ ofl‘is ” A crusade
of that kind is well enough in its proper
place, but would any one pretend to say
that Mrs. Williard and Mrs. Williams were
as useful to society, in promoting the
happiness, health, comfort, and good
nature of mankind as the dear Miss Cor-
son? Not a bit of it. Miss Corson pays
her way and is rewarded by her exertions,
while the other two are lugged around
the country under the wing of some east-

ern Total Abstinence Society at agreed
salaries. Don’t condemn the dining
hall; ’tis the haven of rest to many
a weary soul. To cook well a person
must have natural adaptation for it, and
who can so worthily fill the post of
honor except a lady? The Lord him-
self so thought, for while he and Mary
were in the parlor talking, Martha Was in
the kitchen serving. Martha perceiving
that Mary was having tow good a time of
it, became jealous, and to break off the
conversation, found an excuse that she
needed Mary’s assistance; but her cunning
plea was understood, and she was told to
stick to what she was doing, that Mary
was doing well, but she was doing better.
This shows that Martha was a consequen-
tial person, and filled a place in society
just as necessary as that filled by her sis-
ter. Encourage good cooking, that neces-
sary factor to the well-being of society,
that high gauge that marks the progress
of civilization. Savages don’t care for
good cooking, but the cultured man knows
its inestimable value. H. G.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. Feb. 17th.

 


 

2 THE HOUSEHOLD.

 

 

 

THE HOUSEKEEPlNG QUESTION.

 

E. S. B. asserts that she can make
good bread, andI rise to confirm the as-
sertion. With such bread as hers in the
house, one may answer the door bell
without the slightest trepidation, and her
housekeeping is “ all 0. K." Still I affirm,
and that confidently. that it is the duty of
every mother to teach her daughter all
that she herself knows of good house-
keeping; and this for various reasons. It
is asserted by our best medical authorities
that a very large proportion of the physi-
cal weaknesses and disease from which
the mothers Of this generation suffer have
their origin in the schoolroom, and that
between the ages of thirteen and sixteen,
the direct result of undue development of
the mental forces at the expense of the
physical. Fortunately this is the age at
which a girl may get a good domestic
education and still pursue special stud-
ies, either at home or in the school—room,
and so become a strong, self‘reliant wo~
man; intelligent and well balanced, both
in body and mind.

The value of a good education cannot
be over estimated, and I will make any
sacrifice to assist my children in obtaining
one; but so far as” my experience goes I
do not find the greatest practical results,
the most varied intelligence, among
those who have made school-going the
regular business of their youth. To many
it becomes a mere routine, and they are
far from being well informed. Were I a
teacher I would have a limited knowledge
of Latin precede English grammer, and I
will not allow my children to take up
grammar at so early an age as is custom-
ary in our country schools. And here I
may be allowed to say to “ Slowmus ” that
to my mind an intimate knowledge of
Latin will neither sour the bread nor spoil
the housekeeper.

Where is A. L. L.? Surely a mother
who has raised and so effectually disposed
of nine fair daughters must have ideas on
this subject. For myself, I am like the
old Scotchman, “always open to convic-
tion,” but I would like to see the person
who could convince me that it is not best
for children to begin early to share the
labors of their parents, that they may bets
' ter appreciate what is done for them; and
I believe their lives will in this way be-
come of greater value to the great world
arOund them. MRS. W. J. G.

HOWELL, Feb. 25th, 1884.

 

GIvE THE KIND worms NOW.

 

Having been a subscriber to your most
valuable paper for some time. I take great
comfort in perusing its columns, especial-
ly the Household. A few weeks ago I
saw an item in the FARMER which puz-
zled me somewhat, and therefore I wish
to ask the lady friends of this department
if in their opinion the item contains truth
entirely: “Woman’s tears cost little and
availeth much." To my mind it should
read just the reverse. Why is it that
many, many husbands throughout the
land entertain this idea that tears cost
nothing, looking on the Wife with con-
tempt if by their own harsh, careless

 

 

 

words her eyes are bedimmed with tears?
Only a few years ago the girl-wife was so
dear to them; nothing was too good for
her; they were all attention to every
want; if sickness overshadowed her how
ready to sympathize and caress!

I often think when I see men taking
(or seeming to take) delight in saying ha’d,
unfeeling words to their own wives, why
is it? How can they like to see the quiv-
ering lips and swimming eyes, and know
they have set the heart to aching. Is it
that cold, cross words are more easilyr
spoken than kind, loving ones? Perhaps
in after years when the heart has suffer-
ed and borne all that is possible with
longing for kind treatment which never
comes, and at last the struggle is over,

and the pale, care—worn face, and tear--

dimmed eyes are cold and still under the
coffin lid, the husband will look
thereon and think, “ Ah, how hard her
lot has been, and how little have I ever
done to lighten her load?” It is too late
to recall the past; so look well to your ac-
tions while your wife is yet living. I once
heard a man say; “ Oh, Mary’s tears fall
as easy as rain and amount to about as
much!” What ahusband that must be! I
thought. What do the other Household
members think on this subject?

TWO VALENTINES .

 

As valentines have been all the talk for
the past month, I have caught some of the
sentiment and also caught one of the
valentines of the period. As I looked at
the gaudy sheet, my thoughts were about
the same as those of a fine old gentleman
I once heard of, who one morning met a
group of children going to school, who
Shouted boisterously at him. “Ah,” said
he, “It is not as it used to be. Once, if
you met a group of children, they would
make a modest bow and say ‘good morn-
ing,’ instead of shouting at the top Of
their voices ‘hello, old boy!’ Give me
back the dear, sweet children Of long ago !"

There is as much difference in the val-
entines of long ago, and most of those we
see to day, as in the manners of the chil-
dren then and now. And to show the
contrast, I will try to describe two valeno
tines received by myself, the first and the
last. The first came when I was about
nine years ‘old. At school one day I found
in my spelling book a neatly folded note,
addressed “Valentine.” I sat looking at
the unfamiliar word, for I had not
studied Webster much then, till a school-
mate said “ Oh, Adda has a valentine!”
Then she explained to me that if one per-
son likes another ever so much, and dare
not tell them so, on the 14th of February
they send a written or printed letter,
signed “Valentine,” telling them so. In
one of the corners near the top of the
page was what was intended to represent
Cupid, with curved bow, and arrow
aimed at a large heart, both drawn with a
very unskillful pen. Underneath were
the following rhymes:

“ The r so is red, the violet blue,
The pink ls sweet and so are you,"

 

l

defied set phrases: “And you are the
nicest, goodest girl in school!"

I always supposed valentines were in-
tended to convey some sentiment of re—
spect and affection, until I came to see
the hideous sheets put up for sale and
called valentines. Last year one of our
local papers truly said of the valentines
Of tO-day that if a. person feels an enmity
toward another, the comic valentine is
resorted to to wound his sensibilities. for
among the horrid creations can be found
something to cast a slur on almost any
one, of any calling and profession. My
last valentine was of this class: a picture
of an old lady, pen in hand, writing, and
a long string of poetry, the subject, “A
Poetess, (in a Horn).” I could not see the
resemblance, for I neither wear spectacles
nor write poetry, though I think I could
write as good doggerel as this; and like
the " old gentleman who sighed for the
mannerly children of long ago, I re-
gretted the kindly, affectionate evidence
of love and esteem conveyed by the old-
fashioned valentine.

MEMORIAL DAYS.

 

The custom of observing in some man-
ner the birthdays of great and distin-
guished men, by countries and nations,
has been of long continuance. But the
Observance of memorial days 1n com--
memoration of authors and literary men,
by schools, societies and individuals, is of
more recent date.

Our Circle has recently held a com-
memorative meeting at the home of one
of its members, of Longfellow’s birthday,
which was so pleasant and profitable to
us that I give the programme as a sug-
gestion to others:

Written biography Of his life. Questions
and answers on his life and writings. Ver-
bal synopsis of the poem “Evangeline.”
The same of two of his prose works,
“Kavanagh” and “Outre-Mer.” Select
reading. Recitation of “Walter Von
Der Vogelwield.”

At the tea table, ,each guest found at
her plate a card with Longfellow’s name
and date of birth on one side, and on the
other a quotation from one of his poems.
These were read aloud, thus happily
bridging over a frequently awkward
pause in the conversation, at the same
time turning it into a channel befitting the
occasion.

Aside from the social features (which
are very pleasant) of such meetings, we
feel that by such means we are brought
more closely in contact and sympathy
w@ the thoughts and feelings of such
great minds than in any other way. We
study their works, their lives, the sur-
rounding influences of the times in which
they lived, and their cotemporaneous
writers. It gives us an opportunity to
criticize each other’s opinions, talk of our
likes and dislikes of any particular pas—
sage, and analyze and define an obscure
thought. Where convenient for only two
or three to meet together, or only for the
members of one family, to make it the

or recitations, in which all can partici-
pate and become interested, will be found
to also make it a time of mutual profit.
The “Memorial Days” for the re-
mainder of this year in our Circle, will be
Shakespeare’s and Addison’s. Milton’s
and Bryant’s come in the fall, and we
may add Emerson’s, that being coincident
with that of one of our members. They
are real “red-letter-days” to us, and not-
withstanding some of us have kept them
for five years, in some way, we still find
something new, beautiful and interesting
to us in thus making a special study of
the writings of these great and good men.
I would certainly recommend the obser-
vance of these, or of some others, to every
literary society, or to add tone and direc-
tion to little social gatherings. c.

A HOUSEKEEPER’S DUES.

 

“She is a firstclass housekeeper, but
doesn’t know anything else,” is the ver-
dict often passed on some woman under
discussion; and 1 would like to ask in the
name of justice, how any one obliged to
take care of a house, prepare meals, look
after a family and that family’s ward~
robe, fight dirt to the last speck from gar-
ret to cellar, and understand all the pro.
portions of lard, flour, sugar, and numer—
ous spices, can be expected to know very
much besides? If she does this sufficiently
well to earn praise, let us bow our heads
in reverence and forbear to criticise.

Few of us can measure the cost of

a housekeeper’s laurels, the watch-
ful eye, the tireless hand which
keeps dust from settling, glassware

and iron shining, meals and linen perfect.
We may often guess at it when, tired
and discouraged, we drop limp into a
chair and see dirt and disorder leering at
us like a pair of fiends from every corner;
or try to talk with some unexpected guest
on poetry, science or art, while we know
there is not a bit of pie or cake in the
house.

Oh, yes, says somebody, but housework
only occupies a woman’s hands, her mind
is free. Let this mocker just try to get
through a big day of general work with
his thoughts among the stars, and see if
the sponge doesn’t receive a fatal chill,
the cake a burn, or the lard a fragrant
boil over, while the planets roll on un-
disturbed in their grandeur. That oft
quoted verse of George Herbert’s:

“Who sweeps a room as to God's laws,
Makes that and the action fine,”

is very nice; but, in nine cases out of ten,
a. woman sweeps a room in such a state
of hurry, with so many other thin to
attend to, that she doesn’t indulge i 'any
aesthetic thoughts about “ laws,” but only
repeats the daily wonder about where
“ all the dirt comes from."

We ought to remember that we are all
beings of limited power, and cease to ex-
pect everything from any one person. 81%
who keeps the dust and cobwebs out of
her rooms is apt to let them settle in her
brain, and mice versa; and who of us dares
to say which is the greater task?

I, for one, think it much easier to
lounge in an easy chair and read the

 

truths solved by other minds, than to bat-
tle with culinary elements, the riots of
animate and inanimate foes, only to fall
and fail at last under the merciless stare
of some unpatched rent, an unpolished
stove, dirty floor, or heavy loaf.

A NE‘V MEMBER SPEAKS.

 

May I become a member of the House
hold? When the FARMER arrives, I al—
ways turn to the Household first to see what
good things are in store. I read it through,
then I take my leisure for the rest, and
“by the way,” there is but little that does
not interest me, for I am a farmer’s wife
through and through.

Beatrix asks, “ How do you like our
new Household ?” I like it very much, but
I hope that the new Household will com-
prise the old members and so many new
ones that we will see it enlarged again
before the end of the year.

I am much interested in the housekeep-
ing question, and am of the opinion that,
generally speaking, a girl who has had no
experience, cannot keep house as well as
one who has.

I find that girls when they become
wives. and are thrown entirely upon their
resources, find many things to learn even
though they have been accustomed to
housework, and intelligent girls find they
cannot learn all there is to be learned in
six months, and women who have kept
house as many years find there is some-
thing yet to learn. I would not say that
a girl who has attended s;hool, or been
teaching, or employed at something that
gave her no opportunity to learn house-
keeping, was unfit to Become a wife, or
preside over a farm home, for if they
have energy and good sense they will try
to succeed wherever their lot may be cast;
yet I would advise all girls to learn about
housekeeping if they have an opportun-
ity, as they will escape many difficulties
and little vexations which they otherwise
would not. Do not think I would advise
learning housework at the expense of
education. Get as good an education as
possible, for we need educated and refined
farmers’ wives and daughters; but I
think the girl who has a practical knowl—
edge of work combined with other accom-
plishments will make a successful matron.

Ladies, in conclusion let me whisper,
don’t ever ask a favor of your husband
before a meal or after a poorly cooked
one, but if you want a lovely spring bon-
net, prepare the “good man’s ” favorite
dishes in your best style for his dinner,
and my word for it, the nurse will be
handed you with full permission to pur-
chase the prettiest one you can find.

INFORMATION \VANTED.

 

I think the MICHIGAN FARMER just a
complete paper now, since we can have
such a nice Household, where we farm-
ers’ wives and daughters can havea place
to express our opinions. I hope we may
all profit by its reading; let each of us
remember that it will be what we make

it. Let us talk of flowers and fancy work,
and any thing that will be useful and
beneficial. I wish some one would tell me
through the Household, what makes little
white worms get into plant dishes; it is a
little fly that lays the egg, but what: is it
that calls them? I have had to repot
most all of my plants this winter, and in
cold weather, repotting puts them back
very much, but I have found out lately
that I can kill the worms with hot water,
nearly boiling heat. Be careful not to
get it on the follagc or stems of the plant;
but the flies I can not get rid of. If some
one will tell me the reason lwill be greatly
obliged. ~

I will tell the lovers of fancy work how
to make pretty and not expensive tidy.
Take apiece of net lace, you can get it
for forty cents a yard, and it is oVer
two yards wide. Cut a piece the size you
want your tidy, and then work it with
any color of Saxony yarn you prefer,
bright scarlet is lovely. \Vhen you have
this done, work a strip “say two inches
wide, finish the edge with a buttonhole
stitch and sew on your tidy: then line
the tidy with white paper eamhric. I
guess I won't stay too long or you won’t
want me to come again. ‘

A NINE year old lassie who calls one of
our most valued contributors “mother,"
evinces a practical knowledge of geog-
raphy which would do no discredit to
an older student. She was told that there
was talk of making a railroad to carry
people to Europe Without crossing the
Atlantic. After just a moment’s hesita-
tion, she replied: "Why, yes; they can
do that if they have money enough; just
down through Alaska, across Behring’s
Straits and across Asia." The readiness
and correctness of the. reply show that to
this little learner at least, countries in
other continents are not mere outlines on
maps, whose names and dimensions are
to be memorized, but aetualities, where
she knows people live and work, and go
to schOOl, just as she does.

WILL E. S. 13., of the Household, please
tell how long she molds the bread each
time; and will home made yeast do to
start with, instead of yeast cakes? So
many of the cakes we get are sour.

MRS. O. WHITCOMB. of Otsego, Mich,
writes:

“I send you a report of my machine
obtained through the MIC HIGAN FARMER.
It arrived all right, and I have given it a
thorough trial. finding it all you repre

have a fine opportunity to secure a first-

half What they would be obliged to pay
an agent. My neighbors are predicting
that something wrong will yet develop
about it, but I fail to see any symptoms of
it yet, and have used it nearly every day
for two weeks.”

Of course if there was an agent‘s com~
mission of $25 attached to this machine,
it Would dispel any fears in the minds of
the neighbors that the machine would de
velop something wrong in the future. We
would repeat here that the machines are
guaranteed for five years against every-
thing except the ordinary wear and
tear. Any part of the machine proving
defective will be replaced Without cost

Mas. DELIA Cnoor, of Fowlerville, fur-
nishes us the following recipe f01 a cough
sirup, which she says will save many
doctor’s bills if used: “One oz. tinct.
lobelia, one oz. tinct. blood-root, one oz.
wine of ipecac, one oz. sirup of squills.
These are to be put together; then take a
cup of white sugar and just water enough
to make a thick sirup; add one-half of
your medicine and give one teaspoonful
or more at a dose, according to age. It
carried one of my children through a
severe case of inflammation of the lungs
this winter, in connection with hot out-
side applications of smartweed ' and
vinegar.”

Is not Beatrix a little mixed in her
criticism of Henry Irving’s “Louis XI,”
when she substitutes Toison (1’ Or for
Tristan 1’ Hermite, in the instructions for
the assassination of the Burgundian
envoy? Toison (1’ Or was the envoy, Bur-
gundy’ s, herald, while Tristan l’ Hermite
was Louis’s executioner. Let her read

Aylesbury Ducks.

Fanny Field says, in the Ohio Farmer
that the Aylesbury ducks rank among the
leading varieties—good for feathers, good
layers, and excellent for market; but it
will hardly pay to keep any breed of
ducks for eggs and feathers alone, unless
one has a pond or swampy place where
they can pick up the greater part of their
living, or can sell the eggs for fancy
prices. In order to make duck—raising
profitable they must be kept for all they
are worth—eggs, feathers, and for market.

Ducks do not usually lay so many eggs
in a year as hens, but the eggs of the
improved varieties of ducks make up in
size what they lack in number. In large
cities ducks’ eggs will often bring extra
prices just before Easter, but at other
times and in most markets “an egg is an
egg,” and ducks’ eggs that weigh three
to three and a half ounces each are sold
at the same price per dozen as hens’ eggs
that weigh two ounces each. When eggs
are bought and sold as they should be,
by weight, it will pay to keep the best
laying breeds of ducks for eggs and
feathers alone.

Prime live duck feathers bring from 25
to 35 cents per pound, which is about half
the prices paid for prime live geese
feathers. Prime, all white, duck feathers
sometimes sell as high as 40 cents per
pound, but it is not often that so good a
price can be obtained, even for the best.

THE Rural New Yorker says: “As our
fowls are necessarily confined in small
yards, we are obliged to supply them
with all the essential kinds of food that
they would eat if running at large. But
previous to the last six months a full sup-
ply of shell-forming food has always
been at times neglected and ‘ soft-shelled’
eggs or eggs without any shells, have fol-
lowed‘from the neglect. About six months
ago we began to feed our fowls bones
broken up to the average size of wheat
kernels, and we have never seen a soft-
shelled egg since. The fowls are exces-
sively fond of this food in small quanti-
ties, and a very small quantity suffices to

 

 

satisfy them and to insure sufficient egg-.

shell material. This quantity we have
found to be a full handful given three
times a week for every six hens.”

 

WHEAT fed whole to laying fowls, and
wheat screenings or cracked wheat f
young chicks, have always produc
most desirable results, though it m
remembered that they must not be fed
in the same quantities as corn, or prepar-
ations of corn. The tendency of wheat
is to produce a healthy growth, feed the
muscular tissues and aid materially in
causing the hens to lay often, and rich
eggs.

  
 

——H_

FANNY Finn) says there is no more
“luck ” in poultry management than there
is about boiling water in a teakettle after
you have kept fire under it long enough.

CHARRED corn is an excellent food for
laying hens and serves to keep them
healthy and vigorous. Do not feed en-
tirely but give once a day, and be careful
in preparing it or it will burn to ashes.

 

WHILE it is true that young hens lay
more eggs per year than old ones, they
do not make so good setters nor so care-
ful mothers.
in the character of fowls in this respect,
and a little watchfulness will soon teach
the careful attendant which ones will be

best to set.
—-———.—.—.——_

WHILE fine hay, or fine well-broken
straw makes good nests, a very good nest
can be made with shavings from wood;
select only the thinnest and softest, and
make the nest well with them. They can
be lightly sprinkled with diluted carbolic
acid to keep away lice, and, being very
porous, will retain the smell and effect of
the acid much longer than any other ma-
terial.

 

A CORRESPONDENT of the Rural New
Yorker tells how she manages to secure
plenty of eggs in winter: “We have a
warm hen-house, with plenty of glass on
the south side to admit the heat of the
sun; a dust bath is in a sunny corner.
There is plenty of gravel and burned
bones pounded up to make the shells. A
cabbage head is given once or twice a
week, while the regular feed consists of
wheat screenings, corn, oats, potatoes and
bran. For a change we alternate their
feed thus: Morning feed, either boiled
potatoes and bran mashed, or boiled oats
and screenings; night feed, raw screenings
or corn. We put alittle salt, pepper, and
sometimes sulphur in the mashed pota-
toes. For drink, sweet skim-milk, warm.
This is an excellent substitute for meat.”

 

I caught a severe cold, and remembering you
told me to use “Downs’ Elixir,” I bought a
bottle, and in less than three days my cough
and sore throat had vanished! It’s good.‘

Sale of Land by an Executor.

 

LA Pours, 1nd,, Feb. 8th, 1884.
Law Editor of the Michigan Farmer.

Please answer the following query:
Does an executor (in Michigan) in selling
lands on an order from court, the same
having been appraised, have to conform,
in any way, to the appraisement? In
other words, does the appraisement gov-
ern the price at which such land may be
sold, either at private or public sale? An
early answer will oblige.

Yours truly,
A. J. STAIIL.‘

 

Answer—N0, the appraisement in itself
does not govern the price at which a
piece of land may be sold by an executor.
Before an executor can sell lands he must
obtaina decree from the Probate Court
ordering the sale of such land, and this
sale must be made at public auction, no-
tice of which must be given. If it
shall appear to the Judge of Probate that
the sale was legally made and fairly con-
ducted, and that the sum bid was not dis~
proportionate to the value of the property
sold, or, if disproportionate, that not
more than ten per cent, exclusive of the
expenses of a new sale, could be obtained,
he shall make an order confirming the
sale and directing conveyances to be exe-
cuted. Should the appraisement govern

absolutely the price for which
the property could be sold it
would frequently happen , that it

never could be sold. The appraisement
would simply aid the Judge of Probate in
determining how much the property
ought to bring. H. M. Snow.

 

How May Drain Taxes be Collected.

 

PLYMOUTH, March 5, 1884.
Law Editor of the Michigan Farmer.

Being a subscriber of the MICHIGAN
FABMEB, I would like to ask a question.
The town treasurer has levied on personal
property to pay a drain tax, and. the prop-
erty did not belong to the person that the
tax was assessed to, and the property
has ”been replevined. Now can the
town treaseurer collect the costs and dam-
ages of said suit from the town?

SUBSCRIBER.

 

Answer—From the above letter I should
judge that the replevin suit had been
brought against the town treasurer per-
sonally, and that he paid the costs of the
suit and now asks to recover what he has
paid. The only way in which delinquent
drain taxes may be collected, is by re-
turning the lands on which the taxes are
not paid to the county treasurer, by whom
they are sold for taxes, and the town treas-
urer had no right to make a levy on per-
sonal property for the purpose of collect-
ing a drain tax. Personal property may be
seized and sold for general taxes but not
for drain taxes, and must be collected in the
way marked out by the drain law. I do not

think that the town would have to pay

 

 

for the expense incurred by the treasurer
in a case where he did not follow the law
which is his guide, and the suit was a

result of his own negligence.
H. M. SNOW.

 

Pay for What You Get.

 

NORTH BRANCH, March 1, 1884.
To the Law Editor 01' the Michigan Farmer.

Having been a subscriber to your valu-
able paper for some time, and seeing
many getting valuable advice therefrom,
I take the liberty of asking information
in your department. A publisher sends
a paper to my address for one year and
then writes for a year’s subscription,
which is sent him, and a note stating that
the paper is not wanted any more, and he
stops it for a few months. He again sends
paper as before without any order from
me, and in a year he sends for subscrip-
tion price again. Now, Mr. Editor, does
it not require two to make a bargain?
Please tell us through your paper the law
governing a case of this kind.

INCOGNITO.

 

Answer.——The law on this point is well
settled that if a paper is sent to a person
and he takes it from the postoflice, that
this amounts to an acceptance of the
paper and he must pay for it. Even if
you wrote to the publisher to discontinue
sending the paper, but took the paper
from the office when it was sent, you
would hate to pay for it. If you don’t
want the paper. refuse to take it from the
office.

Deal Justly with the Boys.

In looking over the past, one little cir-
cumstance comes to mind which led me to
think as the heading of this article reads,
“Deal Justly with the Boys.” When I
was a hey my father pointed to a poor
motherless calf and says “Harve, if you
will take that calf and take care of it, it
shall be yours.” Well, I took the respon
sibility. I fed and took care of that calf
and called it my property and father al-
ways spoke of it as the “ Boy’s Calf ” and
every one pronounced it Harve’s calf that
knew anything abort it. In.proee‘ss of
time that calf rose to the dignity of a fine,
sleek, three year old steer.

One fine day in the fall of the year some
evil spirit sent a butcher that way and in
answer to the inquiry for fat cattle my
father replied that he believed “The Boy
has a steer that might do for beef.” The
result was that the butcher drove the
steer away and father’s pocket-book was
increased in the value of its lining by
some $40. But I was left to ponder on a
question I have never been able to solve.
The calf was mine but the steer was
father’s. Now at what time, at what age
and in what manner the animal changed
ownership has always been a matter of
anxious inquiry; but I shall never find out
unless there are keener revealings in the
next world than in this. “Deal J ustly
with the Boys.”—Fltnt Globe. ~ V

How May Drain Taxes be Collected.
P131 11-11‘1‘11. March 3.15M.
Law Editor of the Michigan l-‘armcr
Beinf: :‘. subscriber of the Micinoxx
FARMI-JK. I would like to ask :1 1111081101].
The town treasurer has 1611011 on personal
property to pav a drain tax, and the prop—
erty did not belongr to the person that the
tax was assessed to and the property
has been repl1vincd. Now ‘an the
town trcaseurer collect the 1: osts and dam-
ages of said suit from the town?
51' ist‘ltllil‘lh‘.

 

11]Lw[‘07‘.-—-Fl'()lll the above letter 1 should
judge that the rcplcvin suit had been
brought. against the town treasurer per-
sonally, and that he paid the costs of the
suit and now asks to recover what he has
paid. The only way in which delinquent
drain taxes may be collected, is by re-
turning:r the lands on which the taxes are
not paid to the county treasurer, by whom
they are sold for taxes, and the town treas—
urer had no right to make a levy on per-
sonal property for the purpose of collect—
ing a drain tax. Personal property may be
seized and sold for general taxes but not
for drain taxes,and must be collected in the
way marked out by the drain law. I do not
think that the town would have to pay

 

 

 

 

for the expense incurred by the treasurer
in a. case where he did not follow the law
which is his guide, and the suit was a

result of his own negligence.

What to Do with Weak. Colonies in
the Spring.

J. E. Pond, of Massachusetts, says in
the American Bee Journal:

“ We have been advised in days past to
unite all weak colonies; this advice,which
is good for fall management, is of no value
in the spring, unless it should happen that
queenless colonies are found. when, of
course, union is strength. My experience
teaches me that weak colonies united will
live no longer than the same colonies
would have done if they had been kept
separate; the reason being that the blees
are all old and can live but a short time
after having borne the hardships of win-
ter confinement. It is hardly possible to
imagine that all colonies will be alike
weak, if such should be the case, I should
hardly know what to advise, for the bee-
keeper who finds his apiary in such a state
would hardly be able to strengthen up
colonies successfully.

“The object of an apiarist should be,
net to obtain the greatest possible yield
from a single colony, but to equalize the
whole apiary so that he may obtain a large
and an average gain from each colony.
To this end he should in early spring
equalize his colonies in strength as nearly
as possible, and this can best be done by
taking frames of brood from those that
are strong enough to bear the loss, and
giving them to the weaker colonies. If he
has, as he should have, average queens in
all his hives, he will be able by careful
management and judicious feeding to
stimulate, to bring all his colonies up to
prime condition, and to have a large force
of foragers ready to take advantage of the
first flow of honey that is secreted by the
early flowers. Many, however, are not
careful enough in this matter of stimu-
lative feeding. We begin without refer-
ence to the strength of the colony to feed
diluted syrups, and also spread the brood,
the consequence being that a cold frosty
night drives the bees into a cluster, the
brood is exposed, chilled and dies, and
the colony is either ruined completely or
so injured that it becomes valueless for
the whole season.

“ In this whole matter of strengthening
and equalizing colonies, there is an op-
portunity for exercise of the greatest care
and judgment, and to know how to do it
just right every time, can only be learned
by experience. Many are apt to make the
mistake of strengthening colonies too
early. By so doing they lose a large
amount of stores in feeding useless con-
> sumers. We want a large force of forag-
ers when there is honey to be gathered,
and at no other time.

“If any queenless colonies are found,
when it is too early to raise queens with
any prosprct of their mating in time to
be of any use, they must be united with
some colony that has a good queen; this,
I have found, can best be done by moving
the hives close together, giving both col—
onies a little smoke, and when the bees

are filled with honey removing the frames,

 

bees and all, from the queenless hive, and
alternating them with the frames in the
otherhive. This united colony should be
closely watched, and if any fighting takes
place, another blast of smoke should be
given them. If the union is made in this
manner on a chilly day, no trouble need
be anticipated, and no pains need be
taken in regard to the queen. I have
united many colonies in this manner with-
out caging the queen, and find she is not
troubled at all, and that the bees unite
peaceably, and are friendly at once.”

Extracted Honey.

A very large part of the honey crop is
now taken in the form of extracted honey..
Comb-honey is good and beautiful,
but it has the disadvantage of the wax,
which is indigestible, and which nobody
cares to eat. In the extracted honey we
have no wax, it is honey in its purest
form. Many people associate extracted
honey with strained honey; they suppose
that all honey out of the comb is strained
honey, but this is great injustice to ex-
tracted honey. In getting strained honey
all the combs from a hive, combs contain-
ing capped-brood, and growing larvae and
pollen and honey, are mixed up together
and then the liquid squeezed out. In this
way there is obtained some honey, but
there is also obtained the juice of the
growing larvae of the young bees and of
pollen, so that the honey has a rank
flavor, a dark color, and associations by
no means appetizing. But extracted
honey is as different from this strained
honey as it is possible to be. In getting
extracted honey we get no pollen, no
juices of bees or‘larvse. We get simply
the pure honey, without any admixture
whatever. He, who on a cold winter
morning has never had pure, candied,
white clover honey to spread on his hot
cakes, has lived in vain! Life has lacked
for him one of its chiefest charms!

 

 

' The Best Bee Veil.

James IIeddon says: “I consider a
black bobbinet veil the best face protector
we have. The meshes are round, and the
shape and color is best fitted to clear
vision. To make one requires a yard of
goods, twenty inches wide. When sewed
up the veil will be twenty inches long,
three feet in circumference, and one foot
in diameter. The usual way of attaching
this veil to the hat has been to have a cord
“ run ” into the edge of one end and
drawn up to the size of the crown of the
hat. When drawn over, the veil comes
out over rim and down over‘the face and
inside the coat, vest or shirt collar. I
have found that a much better way is to
procure a new white chip hat (about fif-
teen to twenty cents is the price), and
sew one end of the veil'to the rim. This
can be done whether the rim is just one
foot in diameter or larger; for, if larger,
it can be sewed to the rim ashort distance
back from its edge. The wide rim hat
gives better shade. When so used, your
hat and veil are always to be found at
once, and the veil is practically about six
inches longer than when used in the first
way mentioned.
