The object in harvesting clover and
grass geut'Mlly ctkoukl be to cut it at
that etngo of growth when it contains the
greatCHt amount 0 rmtrinieut. JIucb,
of course, will JtpeuJ upon t'uo weather,
but much aUodopenils on the exact stage
of growth at which the plant ia cut.
Tho i'U'1 au.l aim, if we may so speak,
of all plants isti propagate their species,
lltuce wo liuil thorn springing tip,
flourishing, producing seed, and then
dyip(L. 1 luring tho period of active
growth tht'y are constantly engaged in re
ceiving cxtraoooin nutritive matter with
which the structure of tho plant is built
np. This extraneous or nutritive mat
ter, and of which the pknt is composed,
is constantly uxdcrioiug change the
sugar that abounds in the youug and
growing plant being largely changed
during the ripening of the seed into huBk,
bran and starch in the grain, or woody
fiber in the stalk. The opening of the
il.iwor is the signal for the commence
ment of this change, which continues to
go cn until the plant has reached ma
turityconsequently the longer this
change is permitted to continue the
more this matter will decrease. The
object, therefore, of the haymaker should
be to seize on that particular period in
the growth of the plant when it contains
the largest amount of nutritive matter,
and this is when the plant is in full
bloom. Kvery hour that clover is al
lowed to stand after it has reached this
point is at tho expense of its nutrition,
and if not cut until dead ripe, the stems
hava b'X-otne so hard and woody as to be
but little better thin so many sticks.
Xo crop is more easily injnred by wet
weather than this, and to kiwo it just
dry enough to stow away in the bam or
stack, but not so dry as to cause the
beads and leaves to shaiter off in hand
ling, requires tho most discriminating
judgment and closest attention. I a or

qualities in their greatest perfection, and
be especially beneficial to milch cows in

At tho meeting of the Union Ji.iJge
(Md.) farcers' club it ws urged that
the selection of seed corn is ono of the
most important things which a farmor
has to do. Cjfrso cobs accompany late
maturity, as a rule; fine cobs well tipped
out indicate perfect mi tu ity, adaptation
to tho season and soil und a fixedness of
character which it is important to main
tain. The curing of corn takes pl ace to
a great extent afier husking, and tho
presence of a great, sot t, moist c-jb in
each ear gives a tendency to mold,
which should be sedulously avoided.
One may easily judge by the eye which
ears Lavo the smallest cobs, those which
are best tipped out, which have tho ker
nels in closest rows, and all the rows
.running unbrokeu from end to end.
These ears will not be found umong the
biggest round, or amoDg the longest,
usually, but among those of medium
sizo. The tars should bo firm, close,
hard aud solid. The suckers should,
under all circumstances, be taken off
before they appropriate too much snb
stauee which the main stalks should re
ceive; but under no circumstances allow
suckers to tasiel, for whatever pains
may be taken to bring or keep corn at
its greatest perfection by the selection
of sedd, the pollen from the sucker may
undo what has been pained by years of
c ireful selection. Ojo would as soon
think of breeding from a scrub male to
a thoioughbred animal as to have the
pollen from suckers cast upon an excel
lent variety of corn. It is also known
that the pollen from a neighboring field
is oftentimes carried to an almost incred
ible distance, and consequently may
cause more mixture than is desirable.
Fix the -nlr.
Instead of climbing over, going
around or liftiug a rickety gate several
times a day, fix it at once. Every time
a person passes through such an en
trance, he is r minded of something
which needs immediate attention. If
propped up, or hanging by one hinge,
or if there is something wrong about the
fastening, cattle, swine or other animals
are likely to break through and do more
damage to garden or shade trees than
twice tho cost of repairing the gate; say
ing nothing about tho risk of losing one's
temper, or the probability that the stock
are liablo to injury, or tempted to full
into bad habits. Repair the gate at
once; you will feel liko a man, and ev
erything will put on a brighter appear
ance. I reful ItrrtiM'ji.

Milk Suit. Ia making this dish use
one quart of old water, two raw potatoes,
an ounce of drippings, butter or lard, one
and a half ounces of tapioca or sago, a lit
tle pepper end salt, aud one pint of milk.
Tho water is plaesd upon the fire, sea
soned with salt and pepper. The fat
and raw potatoes are placed in tho pot
at the same time, and remain until the
potatoes are quite tender. The potatoes
are theu worked smooth with a spoon,
aud the milk added. The tapioca or
sago is sprinkled in, and after it has
again boiled it is put upon a slow fire and
allowed to simmer for ten minutes.
Look Out lor Moths.
The coming of the warm days shonld
be the signal for a determined nud vig
orous warfare against these destructive
and subtle enemies of everything that is
valuable in furs and clothing. Tho eggs
are laid in May aud J uno (the moth dy
ing immediately afterward), and they
hatch out in fifteen days. The young
worms proceed at once to work, gnaw
ing the substances around them, and
covering themselves with hollow rolls,
shaped from tho fragments, and lined
with silk from their owu bodies. All
these moths are night insects, and seek
dark places in which to deposit their
eggs, which arose tiny as to bo invisible.
From this cause it happons that woolen
fabrics and furs, which were believed to
bo free from moths when put away, are
found in tatters when opened. Tho
worms carry on tho work of destruction
through the summer, rest in torpor dur
ing tho winter, aud change into chrysa
lids early iu thespring. They transform
again in twenty days, and issue out as
winged-moths, to fly about in tho even
ing until they have paired and are ready
to lay eggs.
Taeu follows an invasion of dark clos
ets, chests, drawers, edges of carpets,
folds of curtains and lranging garments,
and the fonnJationsof a new colony are
swiftly laid.
To prevent the ravages of the3a pests
it is recommended that all enpboards,
closets, fronts, ehestrf in fact, all re
ceptacles for clothing and house linen
should bo emptied and cleaned out in
the spriug, aud all the contents exposed
to light and air; before being replaced
they should bo shaken, brnshed and
beaten. Ii putting avay clothes and
outdoor garments, fold them carefully,
and strew camphor among them; then
spread out a clean sheet, and placa the
pile of clothes iu the center, folding the
sheet over flecinely, and sewing them
firmly up in the folds of the shout, strew

bundle also.
True to Ills AUVrlioin;.
The Cincinnati Timrn, recently quiet
ly chronicled tho marriage of Mr. W. F.
Dickinson und Miss Kate Braser. The
groom is tho son of Mr. W. S. Dickin
son, and grandson of Governor Bishop.
lho bride's father is an employee at the
water works, and slic was a domestic in
the Dickinson family when the young
scion of tho house was smitten with her
charms. The parents got wind of the
affair and took steps to interrupt the
course of true love. They determined
to send the young man to Europe, and
made all preparations for that ot ject,
purchasing tickets, providing funds, ,t j.
The lover took it all quietly and sub
missively, and when the time came bade
his friends an affectionate farewell and
started on his European trip. His Eu
rope, however, was a long wny this side
of the Atlantic coast, and when fairly
out of sight of parental watchfulness he
turned back and sped to Miss Braser,
and together thry sought the office of
the clerk of the probate court and
made application for a license. Before
the papers wero issued Mr. Wro. Bishop,
brother-indaw of the young man's
father, made his appearance, and further
proceedings were stopped in that direc
tion. The lovers wire not to bo balked,
however. The shores of Kentucky were
invitingly near, and her officials are
proverbially kind to fugitives from pa
rental interdiction. So the pair has
tened across tho suspension bridge, and
being of the ago required by the law,
'Squire Manson was called, and in the
presence of the clerk and his assistant
the two wero united. They very sensi
bly employed tho provision that had
been made for tho Earopean trip in
setting themselves np housekeeping in
Covington, where tbey are now enjoy
ing tho delights of married life. We
have not heard of any serious demon
stration of displeasure on the part of the
parents since the marriago, and it is
probable that the father and mother
have concluded to make the best of the
situation, forgive and receive the arrant
pair again into their good graces.

white for a wedding dress, but there are
sheer white muslin dresses that would

The importance of tho cravat bow is
greater than ever. It is made large,
long, covered with lace, pi; flings, nar
row ribbons, and brooches of precious
stones. The cravat bow, much trimmed
and very large, is freq'iently au expe
dient. Bonnets arc always mndo to match
the uresa, not ouly as regards their trim-
I mings, but frequently evou to the color
! of the straw, which is tho same as that
of the dress, while the ribbons match
the color of the designs, pipings, bows,
etc., employed for tbe dress. The
shapes of bonnets defy description.
There are as many different shapes as
there are headr, aud the object seems to
be to have no single bonnet resemble
any other. It is principally in this
branch of tin toilette that tho most ab

Harper's Bu:ar gives its readers an
idea of what is t.i bo woru iu the way
way of outer covering, as follows :
Sleeveless juckets of black satin are a
novelty this season. They aro short
and jaunty, and are draped ou the
shoulders with a scarf of China erapo
shirred ou the upper edge. Black
camel's-hair sacques are trimmed with
passementerie, in which gold soutache
is introduced. Sicques of black silk or
Sieilieuno have very wide panels, cuffs,
cellar, and border of jet trimming in
latticed designs. Dressy jackets of tan
or cream colored cashmere or cloth nre
trimmed with pekin fabrics, or with
plaited satin or silk let in the back aud
down the front as a ve.it, or only as a
plastron. For driving jackets young
ladies buy thoio of homespun Eoglish
cloth in prominent cheeks or stripes of
two beige or tan shades ; these of sailor
blue cloth aro not as much woru as they
were last season. Thoso who prefer
black jackets have them made of fancy
cloths with heavy diagonal lines, cr
small ormnro figures, or else herring
bone stripes. These are dcublo-breasted,
slightly cut away below tho waist, have
short Bide forms,and are simply stitched
ou the hem ; they aro heavy enough for
spring weather and cool mornings in
the country ; they cost $s to ?12.
Women MajiiiuMii! Baby Cnrrfasps.
The Detroit Fur rrc-n man, who has
been investigating the subject, and evi
dently knows whereof he writes, says :
The baby earringo made its appearance
yesterday for the season of 1879. It was
occupied by the usual baby, and it was
propelled by the woman who looks into
all tho store windows as eke goes along.
A reporter who followed the carriage for
on honr found that it had collided with
five women, ten men, six cnrb-block?.
four boxes and a street car, and every
collision ouly made the woman more de
termined to occupy two-thirds of the
sidewalk if it took all summer. She
succeeded. They all succeed. A wo
man pushing a baby carriage in front of
heron the sidewalk is as dangtrons ns
seven roller-skaters and four velocipede
riders combined. S'ie can't kill a full
grown man quite as promptly os a rnu
away team, bnt she can knock his shins
to pieeep, tumble him over, upset all bis
good resolutions and leave him flint
heartodand evil-minded. You can't dodge
a baby cab. Your ouly safe way is to
make a jump from the curbstone or
climb a ladder. They go on wheels.
They are supposed to be a convenience
which no respectable baby can do with
out. No motter who first got the idea
that jolting a baby around town, bobb
ing him over curbstones and bouncing
him over crosswnlks would sweetoa his
disposition tho idea is correct. Iat a
man iu a vehicle of tho sort and his back
would be broken in an honr, but babies
have no backs. They aro simply a great
big hunk of sweetness. Tbe woman with
tho baby carriage needs no advice. She
knows enough to head the vehicle tr
ward every crowd she can see. The
thicker the crowd the more business she
has there. It is her dnty to run to all
firos with it, to select the busiest cross
walks, and to get in front of all runaway
teams, and she perfectly understands it
If there is any country on earth where
these vehicles are not in use, it is no
country to live in.

Terrible Hydrophobia.
In January last a man in Brooklyn,
N. Y., patted a dog on the head, when
the animal suddenly snapped at him
and bit him three times. The teeth
penetrated the index finger of the right
hand, and then the thick part of the
thumb. The man very properly sucked
the wounds promptly and had them cau
terized. He then poulticed tho eores
for a few days, and, after discharging
matter, the wounds healed, and he
thought no more about tho incident. A
few days since, however, he was taken
with f harp pains, which ran with great
rapidity from the hand into tho chest
and shoulder. Associated with tho pains
were several severe chills, aud his con
dition beoame very uervous and his pulse
rapid. When a glass of water was hand
ed to him he grasped at it and swallowed
it with a great spasmodic effort, and all
the symptoms characteristic of hydro
phobia, such as fear of water, violent
paroxysms of nervousness and spasms.
Subsequently delirium came on, and he
threatened to kill those around him, and
had to be controlled by physical force.
It was recommended that ho should be
removed from his apartments to the
Long Island Cjlloge llespital. As the
carriage in which he was removed was
entering tho hospital gateway a black-and-tan
dog suddenly jumped out in
front of tho carriage and began to bark.
In an instant a paroxysm of mania came
on, aud the patient became so violent
that it was with tho utmost ditli.'ulty
that his attendants could restrain him
from doing violence. lie was taken into
the hospital by main force, and his ex
citement was great. He had that per
petual nervousness, sitting up and lying
down in rapid succession. His appear
ance was that of n maniac, his counte
nance being wan and haggard, while his
eyes were wild and glassy. His speech
was incorrect aud his pulse was beyond
count, and he remained in that condition
until death came to his relief.

Dr. Mieville, of N'yon, in Switzerland,
lately read uu interesting papor on the
effects of revaccination as practiced by
him during a recent outbreak of small
pox. The first case was that of a little
girl, whose family consisted of her father
and mother, and eight sisters and broth
ers. Two members of tho family only,
the father and one of the elder daugh -ters,
had teen revaccinated. After a
few days' sickness the girl died of con
fluent small-pox. The mother, who
alone of all the family had visited her,
showed the first signs of varioloid four
teen days afterward, and died from tho
rupture if an aneurism before the dis
ease had reached its height. On the
same day Dr. Mieville revaccinated the
three yonuger children and the eldest
daughter, bnt he was nualle to persuade
two of tho boys, one 11, tho other 10
years old, to submit to revaccination.
Eight days afterward tho three younger
children sickened of tho small-pox.
Tho disease took its mildest form, and
the little patients were quickly restored
to health. The two sons, who had re
fused to be revaccinated, were attacked
directly afterward and both died of con
fluent small-pox after four or five days'
illness. The father and the eldest
daughter entirely escaped. Thus all
who were not revaccinated died, while
all who followed Dr. Micville's advice
were either only slightly affected by the
contagion or not at all.
