FARM, (URDE.t ADD HOUSEHOLD. Halt M Hmtt Ml. A correeponden > arts it nit would be beneficial on 1 earj soil, to wbieb an editorial reply says probably hardly enough to pay lor applying. This is the right answer, in my opinion, hi the majority of oases. Upon a wet or Terr moist soil, whether heavy or light, I would not use salt at all, but from an experience ol about thirty years, during whioh time I need from 50 to 150 barrels annually upon soil, a portion of which was heavy, but dry, I found salta greet benefit, aa by mearns of it the anil was kept moist, soft, and so much mote adhesive, that it did not crack even in a long drouth as dry, berry soil is sure to do at such a time, and is very likely to do in an ordinary dry time; besides which I realized its benefits in destroy ing worms, preventing rust, securing a full berry of grain, stiffening the straw, assimilating the latent plant food, and bringing it into an available condition, &0., as when applied on light soil. —[Oorres. Country Gentleman. Sheep In the Fall. It is the experience of old sheep men that sheep kept in good condition through the fall, are not only enabled to stand the winter much better, bnt yield a much larger percentage of wool the following spring. If the pasturage has been good they will, by fill, be in good condi'ion generally, and the owner who keeps them so nntil the coming of winter will profit at the busi ness. When the frosts come and blight the gTass. its nutritive qualities are so diminished that sheep will lose flesh, unless a little something extra is given them. A little grain, cut pump kins, the run of a turnip patch, or any other green food at command—anything to keep them in a thrifty, growing state—bhonld be given them twice a day at the close of the vegetable season. Especially does this advice apply to breeding ewes- If permitted to run down during the fall, its effect will be sure to show itself at lambing time in a stunted progeny, even if the ewes suc ceed in weathering it through them selves. Poor sheep are bad stock at any time, bnt especially now, when none but gor d sheep will pay. Common sense would, therefore, prompt every man to call his flock, pick out the poor, the old, the lame, the halt and the blind, separate them from the others, and fatten them in a pen by themselves. It is astonTslring' how rapidly they will fatten in this way. Oalv give them a little meal, or even shelled corn, twice a day, with good hay and plenty of water, and they will fatten more easily than a hog. At all events, dispose in some way of all such as are too old to be profitable, and thns have your flock composed of none bat the beet, and the next year’s clip ot wool and frisky lambs will fully demonstrate the wis dom of your course. Surlu Vfinable. To enjoy palatable and wholesome vegetables during the winter months, proper cue and attention are just as essential in harvesting and storing a-* in cultivating. Boots and vegetables— as most of them generally are—thrown promiscuously in heaps about the cellar, very soon lose their freshness and flavor, from the fact that most of house cellars are too warm for the purpose. For storing * limited quantity for immediate use, it may be very well to make such use of the cellar; bnt the main portion should be stored either in the barn, or in a pit out of doors. The latter is easily made by digging a trench some three feet wide and as many in depth, and as long as necessary, to accommo date the quantity to be stored—taking care to select a spot where no water can stand. On the approach of winter the pit is then to be filled np to a level of the surrounding ground, with the roots and vegetables to be wintered—placing the same in narrow partitions, made with straw between the different kinds, eo that each may be taken ont sepa rately on going to nse. There divisions have the additional advantage of making the bulk at each smaller, and thus pre venting tfie danger of being injured bv heating. The pit, with its contents, is then to be covered first with short poles laid across, and then with as mnch earth an will protect them from the weather until about che ‘.rst of Decem ber, when lli - earth-covering should be increased to about a foot and a-half in depth, and sufficiently rounding at top to shed off the rain, t -Where a pit is not practicable, the roots—such as beets, tnrnipe, carrots and the like—may be placed looa -ly in barrels, set in the cellar and covered' with sand, to exclude them completely irt m the light. Onions, not being so easily allected by cold, may bo piled in the corner of an outhouse or barn and ooverfd aith sawdust, chaff or cut straw, as either is most convenifnt. Street potatoes are usually kept in bouses built expressly for the purpose, the main things being to have them per fectly dry beiore storing, and the tem perature of the room to he kept not lower than 60 degrees. Common or Irish potatoes for family nse should be stowed away in bomb, fitting the interstices with sun-dried sand, and the barrels sat away in some dry, dark room or cellar; care, however, being taken when digging to leave them exposed as little as possible to the sunlight, as they are apt to acquire a a bitter principle, which gives them. When cooked, a disagreeable, nauseat ing taste. Kept in the shove manner they ere not likely to become shriveled, and will retain the freshness of newly-dag potatoes, and show very little disposi tion to perout until late in the season. *OR THE FAIR SEX. f—il— Ktm. A new tint of white is called mag nolia. Cord lacings for fastening long kid gloves are gaining favor. Shoulder capes shined at the neck ere van by slender women. White Danish kid gloves of exag gerated length are won by brides maids. White moire silk, trimmed with black velvet and Maek lace, is worn for half mooning. A novel ornament for “ porte-bon henre* is a small kampdmeked figure in silver or gold. Gurnet jewelry is gradually creeping back into fashion again, and the prioe of the stones has advanced. Among the new lingerie are Byron oollais of fine needlework done* on linen cambric, with turned-over ruffs to match. Colored ribbon, from one-half to an inch in width, is worn around the waist, and tied in a bow with very long ends. A handsome reception dress is of dark strawberry red velvet, with ficelle figures, made np in combination with plain velvet, and trimmed with ficelle lace or embroidery in designs like that of ficelle. A new color has been added to the already extended list of navel artistic shades. It is called honeysuckle, and in one light is of a delicate rosy pink, and in another throws ont a delicious golden hue. In the arrangement of the coiffure heavy bangs, Montagues,” or thick rings of hair, are now considered “ bad form " by the most fashionable people, and only the lightest, babyish fluff of hair now shades the forehead. Bibhon in velvet, moire and satin are worn in the greatest profusion on dresses and mantles as easbea, flat-bows for draping acerb and tunics, papillon bows scattered over flonnees and puf fings, and loops pendant over kil tings, peeping from amid waves of lace or forming the edge to the bodice and tunic. “ Pomoonette," a plash fabric used last season by Parisian dressmakers and milliners, will be largely used next season for puts of costumes, garniture, etc. It appears in the new round raised balls with the pile longest in the middle, and represents row alter row of flossy pompons c-n the satin back ground. It in a frail fabric, and is only durable in the beet qualities, where the long, pile is very closely woven into the back of thickly twilled satin A Female Cattle Brianer. One of the most noted women in New York journalism is Hiss Middy Morgan, who does the cattle reports'for some four New York papers, among them the Times and Tribune. She has acquired a fund of knowledge of cattle and horse*, both os the farm and turf, which may be envied by the moot ex perienced male sportsman. Her jour nalistic career dates from an interview with Horace Greeley, whose rather jocose illusion to the need of a reporter of cattle sales was turned to earnest account. Miss Morgan is descended from an old family of Irish gentry, and away hack in her girlhood days she wps the best horseback rider in aU Ireland. She » aa immensely tall woman, six feet two inches in height, and her shoulders are broad and square, so thst she looks mnch like a man in disguise. Sue has a fair and delicate complexion, despite constant exposure to the ele ments, and her eyes are blue and very expressive. • ~ - Jmi Jean Ingelow, when at home, resides at Kensington, near London. Her home and the surroundings are delight ful, and on her reception days her drawing-room is thronged. The guests, upon entering the house, are shown into a large, cheerful room on the left of the hall, where, in a broad window, the usual afternoon tia was spread. After partaking of their tea standing, ’ the; repair to the drawing room, on the opposite side of the hill. Here, stand ing betide an oriental divan, is the hostess, a small, alight woman, of per haps 40 yean, wish a pleasant manner and a quiet somewhat timid smile. Her eyes are bright and expressive, and her heir, slightly tinged with gray, is drawn smoothly hack from her tore heal, under a head dress of muslin and Uce, and her dress ia simplicity itself. As the room slowly fills numbers of the company pass ont icto the balcony and wander about the grounds and gardens, bat throaghoat the hours the hostess is at her post. The ihiaeie Compositor, The Chinese cocn-.-sitcr cannot sit at his ease as our prur* ra do, bnt must walk from one caw to another con stantly, as the cii traders needed cover each a large number that they canndt be nut into anything like the apace used in the English newspaper office. In setting up an ordinary piece of man uscript, the Chinese printer will waits ep and down the room for a few mo menta and than go down stain fora line of lower eeso- Then be takes the ele vator and goes op into the third story after tome sens, and then oat into the woodshed for s handful of astoniahere. 1 The saecossful Chinese compositor doesn't need to be so very intelligent, bat he most be a good pedestrian. He may work and walk around over the building all day to ret upa stickful, and then half the people in this oonntry couldn’t nod it after aIL it Immense Electric Balloon. The large electric balloon projected by M. Tissandier, ia to have the follow ing dimensions: The electrio machine is to weigh five cwt., and the secondary batteries seventeen ewt., representing abont five horse power. These will be carried by an elliptioal balloon of a vol ume of 106,000 oubic feet. The balloon is to be 131 feet long, and its diameter in the centre 60.7 feet. The balloon would have a lifting power of 3} tons, and, consequently, would be able to rapport one ton weight of passengers, ballast, &0., besides the batteries and machinery. With the air ealm its speed would be from twelve miles to fifteen miles per hour, which, of conrse, could be main tained for only a few hours. M. Tissan dier intends constructing such a balloon shortly, and undertaking voyages with it over and around Paris. The problem of aerial navigation ora by no means be considered as solved with this balloon. Even if the first experiments should not give satisfactory results, some ad vantage will be gained by the general evidence they will supply of the practi cability of the idea. A Prosperous State. The tax returns for the State of I Georgia for the present year confirms i the claims put forth of the prosperous condition of that State. These retnrns show an increase of 316,255,515 over the j total value of last year. The value of farming lands has increased 84 000,000, while there is ra increase of 35,000,000 in town and city property. In cotton manufactories there is an increase of over 81,000,000, but this does not fairly show the boom in this line, as there are in course of erection cotton factories which will cost several millions of dollars, which were not subjeot to as sessment this year.

Better Late than Never, But better early than late is medicinal aid when the liver is disordered, the stomach en feebled or the bowels constipated. The dere lictions in duty of these three organs should be reformed by the earliest possible discipline. The entire meohanism of the body is thrown into a chaotic condition by the disorder of one or more. Timely reform effected through the use of Hostetter’s Bitters is worth any amount of drug-tekiug in the later stages of disease. While th'-.e is the best foundation for the allegation that the Bitters is an excellent rem edy in obstinate cases of the types of disease for which it is recommended, there is still greater ground for urging its early use as a preventive. Malarial disease, indigestion and obstruction of the bowels should especially be treated in their first phase. Robie, the Maine vie r, may "possibly owe his success to his name.
