SAINT JOHN : PRINTED AND PUBLISHED BY HENRY CHUBB &> CO. PHINCE WILLIAM STREET. Pomi Epact 4iji Lunai I PEEFACB. A^ attempt has been made for the last three years to publish an Almanac of a larger and better kind than was formerly in circulation in this Province. This we were enabled to do by making use of the services of Gentlemen connected with the Fredericton Athenaeum : we regret to say, however, that the demand for an article of the kind has not been sufficient to justify the Publishers in continuing it. Under these circumstances we have this year reluctantly reduced it to the size and price which seem most suitable to this market. It is perhaps right to say that the Calendar pages for 1S52, and some other matters were contributed by the members of the Athe- naeum, in contemplation of its re-is«ue under the old form. ■| 360 y 248 100 93 76 6d 15 3ublish an :irculatioii use of the thenaBum : if the kind inuinjT it. reduced it ^et. }Sr)2, and the Athe- CALENDAR AND CELESTIAL PHENOMENA.

The Falls are level, or it is still water, at about three and a half hours on the flood, and about two and a half on the chb, so that they are passable four times in twenty-four hours, about ten or fi(\een minutes at each time. No other rule can bo given, as much depends on the floods in the River St. John, and the time of high water or full sea, which is often hastened by high Southerly winds. For a few days in the spring of the year, the he^ht of water in the River Saint John renders the passage of the Falls extremely difficult. 8 JANUARY HAS TIIIIITY-OM: DAYS. lb^2. 14S2.

The first and most important thing for the furmor in this month \i to attend to hi^ horses, cattle and swine. Let them be housed at night and in stormj weather. 8ec that the stables aro cleaned, the yards dry and well-littered, the sheds warm and yet well ventilated. If hay is scarce, and labor is cheaper than fodder, it may be cut ond mixed with chopped straw, corn stalks, meal, bran, grain or roots; take care, at all events, that no fodder is wasted. Cut up a few potatoes or turnips fur sheep, and mix a little salt with them. If there be sufficient snow, haul home wood for fuel and fences Logs may be taken to the mill and made into boards for future use. Repair your tools, vehicles and implements, when obliged to stay in-doori. Thrash grain, clean seeds, and take farm produce to market. Take oats to mill. Take every opportunity of chopping and preparing new land for a crop. This is also a good time for breaking steers and colts, and for making tenons and mortices in fence stuff*. Mo. DAY 0» Week.

Continue to attend to the itock: remember that by keeping animalH warm, you econo- mise the food which would otherwise bo applied to sustain the heat of the body. Curry the cattle and horses. Lice, which accumulate on over-crowded cattlo, may now be destroyed by tobacco-juice, snuff, lard, iish-oil or soft soap. Hens will lay all winter, if their houses be impervious to cold winds, and if with their grain they receive a supply of gravel and old mortar. Continue the hauling of fuel and fencing-stuff; cut up as much of the former as possible, and pile it away under cover for summer >i8e : this seems novel, but (he farmer will understand, though the lumberman may not.

The Moon. — The physical constitution of the Moon is better known to us than thnt of any other heavenly body. By the oid of Jelescopes we discover inequa'.ilies in her snrface which can be no other than mountains and valleys. She has no clouds nor any other decisive indications of an atmosphere, and on this account it seems impossible that any form of life, analogous to those on earth, can subsist there. No appearance indica- ting vegetation, or the slightest variation of surface fairly ascribableto change of season can any where be discerned. A circle of one second in diameter, as seen from the earth on the surface of the Moon, contains about a square mile. Telescopes, therefore, must yet be greatly improved, before we could expect to see signs of inhabitants, as mani- fested by edifices or by changes on the snrface of the soil. m\ 11 Sun's i Eq.

On the morning of the 20th of this month, the 9un advancing northward arrives at that point of the Ecliptic when it is intercepted by the equinoctial, when Spring is said to commence. His motion in the Ecliptic, or change of longitude in twenty-four mean and •olar hours, averages 59' 8" 83; but about the Slat of December it amounts to 61' 9" 9, about the first of July is only 57' 1 1" 5. Such are the extreme Himits, and such the mean value of the Son's apparent aagular velocity in his annual orbit. This variation is ac- companied with a corresponding change of his distance from us ; and it appears from alterations in his apparent diameter at his greatest, mean, and least distances are as the numbers 1.01679, 1.00000, and 0.98321 respectively; and that this apparent angular velocity diminishes as the square of the distance increases, and vice versa. «_ c Sun's Decl. ,.,''''l- Sun Moon | Iliji'li CHURCH AND LAW CALENDAR.

N. VV. W. E. N. W. ASTRONOMY FOR THE MONTH. McrcxiT^. — On the ninth of this month the planet Mercury attains its greatest elonga- tion from the Sun. It is then 19^^ 22'' E in the constellation Aries, and crosses the me- ridian at 1 hour 12 minutes afternoon, and continues an evening star till the evening of the 30th, when it passes to the West of the Son. It is so small, and being nearer the Sun than any of the other planets, is so much lost in the splendor of the solar rays, that it is seldom seen, and the telescope aflfords us little information of its actual conditio!. Its real diameter is about 3220 miles : its apparent diameter varies from h" to 12'' ac- cording to its distance from the earth. The velocity with which it moves in its orbit round the Sun is 109,360 miles per hour. P5 Sun's K<1. of Sun Moon. HigU <_ CHURCH AND LAW Time. 1 Water c >•> CALENDAR. Decl. ©slo. Risfs. Sets.

Finish hoeing and weeding, and prepare for grain harvest. Wheat, oats and barley are generally cut in this month: the best ought to be set aside for seed, and allowed to ripen fully while standing. The grain intended for consumption should bo cut while ■till soft, for not only is the flour better, but there is much less loss and waste in harvest- ing the crop. Lowland hay inny be cut and made into stacks. If there is time, it ia much better, at once, to get the low meadow hay beyond the reach of the river than t(t wait till winter. Make drains where required; gather seed and herbs ; destroy weeds wherever they are to be seen ; remove balls from potato vines, if thought necessary. Fall wheat may be sowed. If gruin harvest be finished, full ploughing for next seai?on may be begun. A good farmer will be ploughing all summer long. Don't burn too soon, or the trouble will bo greatly increased. Great care should always be taken to extin- guish fires on new land; besides the real danger to all parties, the penalty, on con- viction, for not doing so is £3. - - ■ - - _!. DAY OF Mo. Wei'k.

Draining ought to be gone on with: let the drains be from 30 to 36 inches in deplh, and placed about 20 feet apart, (irain may now be iield thrashed. Do not take up potatoes until the vines have been killed by the frost, and are perfectly dry ; keep them from sun and wet, and allow them to dry before housing; let iheiu be stored awaj' in barrels or binns well protected from air." Early apples may bo gathered by hand, wiped, and put away into binns or barrels, taking care not to bruise them : they should be kept in a dry, cool cellar, or upper room, where the temperature is not below the freezing point: should they, by any means, got frozen, they should be kept covered, so as to let them thaw gradually. Trees may be budded in this month. N. E. farmers generally sow grass seeds (not clover) as early as possible after the summer crop. This is, like- wise, a good time for the cow to go to the bull. Rams, again, should be removed from the sheep until the end of November or December. DAY OK Mo.

S. W. ASTRONOMY FOR THE MONTH. Jupiter. — This Is the largest and most magnificent of all the Planets, its absolute diameter being no less than 87,000 miles. Its apparent diameter varies from 30" to 46." It is, n)oreover, dignified by the attendance of four moons ; and thus presents n beauti- ful miniature of the solar system. Those Satellites were discovered by Galileo, and Were among the first fiuitsof the invention of the Telescope. The fir^t astronomical solution of the great problem of " the longitude " dates immediately from their dis- covery ; and by examining their eclipses, IJradley determineu ihe aberration of light, and consequently ascertained the enormous velocity of that wonderful element. Jupiter is further remarkable by having its disc crossed by dark bands or belts, which are ob- served to vary in breadth and situation, though never in their general direction. During the months of April, May, and June, of the present year, it is favorably situated for ob- servation. It continues an evening star till the 21st of November. o CHURCH AND LAW CALENDAR. Mich.

Continne drnining, fall ploughing, and securing corn and root crops. When potatoes ore to be stored in the field, a dry, sandy spot should be chosen, on which they are to be laid in heaps, then put a layer of straw over them; thatch them carefully, and cover the whole with earth: two small orifices should be left, the one at the top, and the other nt the bottom; these should be closed with a wisp of straw, and opened occasionally, to permit the access of fresh air. If the soil of the field is a wet clay, a ditch ought to be dug round the spot where the roots are to be laid. Turnips may be either stored in a root house, or in pits three feet in breadth, and covered with straw and earth as above. Cull out the choicest aniaials for breeding and for use; sell or fatten the remainder. Trees may be set out for the ensuing spring as soon as the leaves have fallen, and tho buds are fully formed. Small seedlings, however, are best transplanted in the spring Fruit trees may now be propagated by layers or cuttings. OAV OK 1 .Mo. We.vM.

Besides being attended by no less than eight satel- lites, or moons, it i^ encompa.ssed with two broad, flat, extremely thin rings, concentric with the planet and with each other. The satellites of Saturn have been much less •tndied than those of Jupiter, being far more difficult to observe. The discovery of the oighth is quite recent, (Sept. 19, 1848,) having, by a remarkable coincidence, bean made on the same night by Prof. Bond, of Cambridge, U. S., and Mr. Lassell, of Liverpool. During this and the two following months it is favorably situated for observation. On the first of October, it is in conjunction with the Moon, in the neighbourhood of the con- stellation 'J'aurus, and being then near Opposition, its motion is retrograde.

Stock now requires increased attention: they should be stall-fed for the winter, if po8«(ible, or put up in yards with a warm aspect, and with sheds attached, whereto they can resort in stormy seasons: they should be supplied with plenty of water and salt, and fed about three times every day, and curried regularly. The sow may be taken to the boar in this month, and the ram allowed to return to the flock again. Let thefarmer keep out of the woods, for farming is not a branch of lumbering, nor are active lumber- erx likely to make thrifty husbandmen. Once for all, let the farmer forswear the woods. He may now thrash grain, and take his produce to market; the good wife ought to have her quota ready of cheese, butter, fowls, hams, sausages, mittens, socks, cloth, wool, and feathers; these are all as good as money in town. Let all accoonts be settled and debts paid. Every farmer ought to keep a book wherein he records his operations, and notes the eflfect of different kind and quantities of manure, seed, &c. ; the returns under each method ought to be recorded by measure and weight. The crops for each field ought to be arranged not only for the ensuing summer, but for seve- ral years in advance: let there always be a systematic rotation of crops on the farm; let every one take in and study an agricultural periodical, and strive to combine science with practice — practice with science.

N. N. W. N. VV. ASTRONOMY FOR THE MONTH. Mptune. — The discovery of Neptune marks in a signal manner the maturity of as- tronomical science. It was flriit detected by Dr. (lulle of Berlin, Sept. 23d, 1846, in the very spot indicated by tlie independent theoretical researches of Leverrier and Adams, who suspected certain small irregularities observed in the motions of Uranus to be due to the disturbing action of an exterior planet. Hitherto, the situation of Neptune in the ecliptic has been so little favorable for seeing it with perfect distinctness, that nothing very positive can be stated as to its physical appearance. Its diameter is about 42,000 miles. To two observers it has afforded strong suspicion of being surrounded with a ring very highly inclined. And from the observations of Mr. Lassel, M. Otto Struve, and Prof. Bond, it appears to be attended by one, and very probably by two statellites — though the existence of the second can hardly yet be considered us quite demonstrated. 1 « Sun's Time.

By the Treasurer's account, now siibmittod, it will bo seen T'ttt the receipts for the year have been — from subscripiions, ,£59 3s.; and allowance from Govern- ment, £177. The expenditures have been— £15 for premiums at the Exhibition, £44 to the Golden Grove Society; £104 7:*. to the Loch Lomond Society; £21 for premiums on field crops; £3*J 5s, 7d. for prii.o books at last year's Fair; £40 7a. 9d. for printing Norton's Elements of Jlgriculturc and the Society's Reports and handbills lor the last three years; and £17 for premiunu at the Ploughing Match. The Directors of the Mechanics' Institute having requested the co-operation of this Society in getting up an Industrial Exhibition, the Directors, in conjunction with the Provincial Society in Fredericton, ollered premiums for agricultural imple- ments and produce, to the extent of thirty pounds, and the Directors have to report that the Exhibition was most successful in its results, far surpassing anything of the kind that has ever before been attempted in the Province, and giving evidence that our mechanics and farmers are quite able to supply all our wants, both as to quantity and quality. Implements were exliil)ited in great variety, and in quality and price superior to anything imported, and showing that if the home market is not supplied with home nianufiictures, it must proceed from other causes than want of ability. It is proposed that another such an Exhibition should bo held in Fredericton in October of next year, and all the County Societies have been invited to assist and compete. It is intended that this Provincial Exhibition should also embrace a Cattle Show; and it will be for the consideration of the Society whether the usual County Fair and Show might not for next year be dispensed with, and competitors requested to exhibit at Fredericton. Fairs and Cattle Shows were held at Loch Lomond and Golden Grove, reports of which have been published. Preminms v re also awarded both by the County Society and those branch Societies for field crops. It will be necessary that some arrangement should be made to obviate a diffi- culty which has arisen with regard to premiums otfered by these diiFerent Societies. It frequently happens that the same persons are members of all these Societies, and compete for the premiums offered by each, thus causing three different sets of Judges to be at the very arduous labour of hispecting the same crops. The Directors would suggest as a renjedy that the Golden Grove Society be open only to members residing within a certain defined district, and the Loch Lomojid Society to take in the remainder of the Parish, A Society is already established in St, Martin's, and it is expected that before another year there will be a Parish Society in Lancaster. Those Parish So'iieties might each have a Show and Fair, contmsd to its own members residing within its own district, and to the County Society might be left the distribution of premiums for general field crops, open to all members of Parish Societies, Tlie Exhibition at the Mechanics' Institute having come in place of the usual Show, tiie Directors oflered premiui')s for u Ploughing Match, which was held in the Parish of Lancaster on Friday last. Eleven competitors came forward, and it is creditable to the County to have to say that there vas not an inferior ploughman amongst them. The award of premiums, although the Judges were known to be thoroughly competent, gave the usual satisfaction; that is, those who were first, thought that full justice had been done, while the rejected were persuaded that there could not have been fair play.

It irt worthy of notice, however, that in one or two instances, where tlio land was drained, subsoilcd, and manured with equal proportions of well-rolled man- ure, aiiauo, and bone-dust — say twenty single loads of manure, two cwt. of guano, nnd hftecn bushels of bone-dust — and the weeding and Hlirring up of the soil properly attended to, the i>roduce of turnip;! and carrots wt"; ;i9 good as in the most propitious of seasons. The principal cause of the failure c.f these crops iit the improper application of the manure. Stable manure should never ho used in the green state for turnij)s nnd carrots, hut should bo removed to the field early in spring, and turned at least twice before being ]nit into the drill. Carrots espe- cially will be a much surer < rop, if grown on land which had been heavily manured the previous ywir for potatoes or turnips. On such a field, after a deep ploughing in the fall, a cross ploughing in spring, followed by a deep grubbing with the subsoil plough, or grubber, a heavy crop of carrots may he expected, with the aid only of about three cwt. of guano. A bonemill has been erected in the Penitentiary, where arrangements have been made either to grind bones on hire, or to supply bonedust. The value of bonedust as a manure is little known, and therefore little appreciated, in this country; but when it is known that the average crop of wheat of the State of New- York at this tune does not exceed 12;^ buihels per acte, and that of Ohio, not ujore than 15 bushels; and that thirty years since, the former averaged 30 bushels, and ihe latter 35 bushels per acre, and that the pariivg with phosphate of lime from the soil without renewal, is the chief cause of their inability to produce their former ratio, which is proved by the old quantities having been raised when phosphate of lime has been used, — when this is considered, toge- ther with the experience of ihe last thirty years in England of the ctlVct of bone- dust in restoring worn-out lanils, it is to be hoped that fiirmers generally will avail themselves of this op{»ortanity of adding fertility to their fields. A tile machine was also imported by this Society, under the direction of Go- vernment, and is staticn»;d at the Penitentiary, where tiles will be made to order. So much has been written of late years on injprovements in agriculture, that tlie subject may be considered pretty nearly exhausted. All that can well be said on it is already before the pu')lic in Professor Johnston's report, and in the very useful publications of the Provincial Society of New-Brunswick, of which Professor Rohb is the efficient Secretary, The Directors would at this time desire to draw the consideration of farmers but to one point, which they consider of vital importance, and that is, to the alarming increase of white weed and yellow weed, or the ox-eye daisy, dandelion, and buttercup, in the hay-fielJs of the country. Such is the prevalence of this pest, (hut in the season of the flowering of plants, instead of a liealthy green, the whole country is becoming chequered with white and yellow, and Tunothy and clover are rapidly giving place to masses of weeds, which, while they exhaust the soil, afford but little nutriment to stock. While it is admitted that the seeding of those weeds causes them to spread over nil descriptions of soils, and to infest alike the fields of the good and the bad farmer, yet there cannot be a doubt but that this evil is mainly the consequence of the general system which prevails of cutting grass for hay too long in succession; the common practice, as is vveli known, being to cut grass from five to ten years without breaking up the ground, and often without top-dressing. It is now becoming evident that on this system farming cannot be conducted profit- ably, and it is the duty of all who desire prosperity to endeavour to find a remedy. Science and practice alike concur in pointing to a rotation of crops as the foundation of good husbandry, and the rotation found to be most suitable to the general circumstances of the country is as follows : — i over land 1 iiinn- gunnu, hu soil in the rops is ist'd iu lI oarly 8 cspc- heavily spring, crop of ts hnvc (•alue of iu tliia !?tate of f Ohio, iged 30 lui^phate bility to ng been d, togc- of bone- vill avail n of fio- to order. ire, that be said le very 'rofessor farmers to the mdelion, plants, th white weeds, ead over the bad uence of cession ; en years id profit- remedy. lOFs as itable to 91 First year, broken up from fallow— Oat*.

As by this 8y>tem, with the arable portion of the farm in six divisions, a firmer will have each year two fields in grain, one iu roots, snch as potalot-n, turnips, and carrotn, one or two in hay, and otio or two in pasture, it has beiMi found that buside a progressive improvement in the quality and capability of the soil, the crops will l>e in exact accordance with the requirements of the farmer's family and his stock, and the manure with tire fields; it is hopev\ 4^ 6^ '^^4^ .« 92 muck behind them to absorb the lupiid mnnurc. The cow stable is cleaned out every inortiiiig, ami the mnnurc is mixed once n week with one load of rich earth tu three uf manure. Clay loam id the best, if it can be got, to mix as compost, ntt there is a retainer ill clav that ottier earths are not possessed oi*. In addition to this, I iiave in rear ot mv dwelling house a tank sunk that ludds thirty common cart loa tank ii) fourteen feet long;, seven feet wide, and six feet deep; it is made of three-inch piank, with hackmatack \mnts, and is properly cimlked and payed to hold water. When this tank is filled with the dry muck, there are conductors that convey all the slops from the kitchen into it, us well* at* all the chamber lye and the soap suds from an outside kitchen; the hearth ashes are likewise put into it in a dry state. In about a month, when the tsink gets pretty well filled up with the liquid, it gets into an acid state, and in •A few days will ripen and be ready for removal, which is easily known by a disagreeable odour and an increase of yellow tJies. In the spring and fall of the year it rec|uires five or six weeks to ri|)en, as the weather is not so hot. To prevent surface water getting in, the tank has a covering, which is easily removed when i-equired. I can make at least one hundred cait loads of good poiverful manure by this tank in a year. I have the manure removed to a large shed at the end of my cow stable, the bottom of which is in the shape of an amphitheatre, from which no li(|uid can escaf)e. I add one load of earth to three loads of tank manure, wliich, in the fall of the year, will cover the iloor of the shed about four feet deep. The manure from the cow stable is thrown on the top of this through the winter, and spread evenly over it. The roof of the manure shed is con» structed so as to admit the rain freely, which washes down the li({uid into the compost; but the sun and wind are excluded. I have a piece of ground, ulmnt a quarter of an acre, which was so poor that it would "ivc nothing but weeds. In May last I ploughed and harrowed it, and then put on six fuads of tank manure, unmixed, to try its strength. I sowed it with barley, harrowed it well, and rolled it. I never saw ranker barley, and I am happy that you saw it, so that you could judge for yourself. Therefore, tank manure is clear gain — its fertilizing ingredients always wont to waste heretofore. To make this manure it requires neither horses, cows, pigs nor sheep, nor any other animal, but the mere slops of the house. Yours, &e. ROBERT BOWES, To the President of the St. John County Agricultural Society. MISCELLANEOUS SELECTIONS. Useful Hints for Farmers. — Rake up leaves from the woods as they full, and put them in the compost heaps. Cnrt headlands to the manure shed, linve a good supply of niaterials suitable for bedding near the stables. Do not attempt to fatten more cuttle than you can fully supply with food, or they will not afterwards flourish well, even if fully supplied. — Young cattle cannot be brought up in flesh at an outlay vvhioh will pay if neglected early. — Get all the n'ght-sml you can, and mix it with neudlands, &c., for the compost iieaps. Wet compost heaps with salt lye from the soap boilers, if you can get it. Use half a bushel of refuse suit to every cord of compost, to prevent re-germination of weeds, grubs, &c. To DESTROY Witch Grass. — A correspondent of the New England Farm- er, in describing the operations on the milk fiirm of Mr. Adams, of Medford, Mass., mentions the following as the method adopted to get rid of the witch grass on a field badly infested with it, and which could not be killed with the plough. " Last year the land so encumbered was fenced off by itself, several bushels of corn was sown broadcast to the acre, and ploughed in, and fifteen or twenty hogs turned into the enclosure. They immediately began to root for the corn, and with the most un* tiring industry turned the soil over again. A few weeks ailer, corn was again sown and the land ploughed, and the nogs again rooted it over. Then the opera- tions were again repeated; and this year no witch grass is seen." This is turning the industry of swine to good account. They will work indus- triously and perseveringly, either in turning over the compost heap or destroying witch grass, for a fair compensation. out every three of retainer ur ol mv thiii tiink ;h piiink, When lops from II outside a month » e, and in agreeable uires five r getting tnuke at have the is in the earth to the shed ')p of this d is con* compost ; t it would lit on six harroweji it> so that t to waste heep, nor WES. 3 as they ire shed.

They do not enrich the soil, while thev fend to choke it up; whereas, if they were burned, and their ashes collected, they would not only make an excel- lent manure, bat tlie earth would ultimately become clean from weeds, In i[rw pastures dig for water on the brow of a bill ; springs arc frequently nearer the sarfuco on a height than in a vale. Valuable Invention for FARMERS.—Mr. Charles Bishop, of Norwalk, Ohio, has invented an improvement in ditching machines, whereby the old spade method of ditching by manual labour is entirely thrown into the shade. His mii- chine is worked by horse-power, and is provided with a revolving excavator, the shaft or axle of which lies in the direction of the length of the ditch. The ditch Vt cut of a semi-circular form, and deposits the cut clay, or other kind of excavated earth, in a box, from whence it is delivered at one side on the road by scrapers at- tached to the endless chain. The machine being propelled forward by a friction wheel or roller, moving in the ditch, and operated by the excavator shaf^. Lime in Ojld Gardens. — Old garden soils which have been very liberally manured, sometimes become sour for want of an alkali, and in such cases the use of lime and even of quicklime is judicious. The decomposition of fcetid matters is thus secured, and the acid products of previous decompositions arc neutralized, while the soil is rendered more pulverulent, and less inclined to cake from extreme heat or moisture. — Working Farmer. To Make Hens Lay. — The South CaroZiniara says a neighbour states, that hog's lard is the best thing he caM find to mix with the dough he give4 to his hens. He says that one cut of this fat ns large as a walnut will set a hen to laying imme- diately afler she has been broken np from sitting, and that, by feeding them with fat occasionally, his hens continue to lay the whole winter. Caterpillars. — Burn the branches of the vine; put the ashes to soak for t'.ireo or four days in water, with which water the plants affected. To destroy the green caterpillar on mignonette, or any other sort of catterpillar, slug, or worm, put some unslaked lime into a pail of water, let ft stand half an hour to settle, and then pour the water on the mignonette, which will not be injured. Snails. — Sprinkle commo.i salt over the ground infested by snails, which will almost immediately destroy them. To Protect Grain from Rats — An individual of much practical expe- rience informs us that green ** elder " deposited in and about the mows of hay and grain, will prove an effectual preventive against the depredations of mice and rats. These animals are frequently very destructive in their ravages; and if a remedy so simple and easy of attainment is efficacious, it deserves to be known and remembered by nil. We have long known that the stalks and leaves of the common mullein will drive rats from their haunts. There is something in the odour of this plant that is as disgusting to their ratships as was the leek to ancient Pistol — they "cannot abide it." To Get Rid of Cockroaches.— Mr. Samuel Tewkesbury, of Nottingham, in a letter to the Manx Sun, says, •♦ I beg to forward you an easy, clean, and certain inethod of eradicating those loathsome insects from dwelling-houses. A few years ago my house was mfested with cockroaches (or " clocks," as they are called here,) and I was recommended to try cucumber peelings as a remedy. I accordingly, immediately before bed-time, strewed the floor of those parts of the house most infested with the vermin with the green peel, cut not verythin from the encumber, and got up half an hour later than usual to watch the •ffect. Before the expiration of that time the floor where the peel lay was completely covered 94 with cuckroachea; so macii so, that the vegetablo eould not bo 9eea»io voracioosly were thoy eogu^jcd in Hacking the poisunoiu moisture from it. I adopted the same plan the following night, but my visitors were not near so numerous — 1 should I' ^ think not more than a fourth of the previous night On the third night I did not discover one; but anxious to ascertain whether the house was quite clear of them, i I examined the peel after I had laid it down about half an hour, and perceived I that it was covered with myriads of cockroaches about the sizo of a flea. I therefore allowed the peel to lie till morning, and from that moment 1 have not seen a cockroach in the house." To IlnMovE Flies ; rom Rooms. — Take half a tea-spoonful of black popper, in powder, ono ten-spoonful of brown sugar, and one table-spoonful of cream; mix them well together, and place them in the room, on a plate, where the flies are troublesome, and they will soon disappear. How SHOULD Cream bk kept? — This question is often asked, and is an- swered in dlRerent ways. We say that cream is sweeter when kept out of a damp cellar or well, than when kept in it. Cream is kept best in a cool back room above ground, or chiefly so. It ought to be stirred daily, while it is kept, otherwise mouldy particles gather on the surface of the pots. i Milk also set for cream, vields more cream when it is placed above ground than whon placed in cellars, and rises sooner also. Any one may prove this by a trial of both modes. Much is sakl about keeping cream sweet, but cream perfectly sweet i? not easily churned. It should undergo a change in order to make good butter. The act of churning produces a chemical change in the cream, and though the cream may have a sour taste, the butter is not necessarily sour — the nature of it is changed in churning, A room above ground, on the north side of a large building, well shaded with trees, is a better place for setting cream than any damp cellar that we have ever seen. In such a room the cream will all rise in thirty-six hours. — that is, all that is really valuable. — Massachusetts Ploughman. Elder Ointment /or BurnSy Cm.s, Sores, £fc. — After peeling oflf the out- side of the elder, scrape ofl'tlie green bark that is under, and stew it in lard till it is crisp; then strain it in a jar, and put it away to heal a blister or burn, or an old sore. Fine Cement to Mend Broken Class or China. — Garlick stamped in a stone mortar, the juice whereof, when applied to the pieces to be joined together, is the finest and strongest cement for that purpose, and will leave little or no mark, if done with care. How TO Cure a Cold. — Of all other means of curing colds fasting is the most eflectual. Let whoever has a cold eat nothing for two days, and his cold will be gone, provided he is not confined in bed, because by taking no carbon into the system by food, but consuming that surplus which caused his disease by breath, he. soon carries off his disease by removing the cause. This will be found noore eflec- tual if he adds copious water drinking to protracted fasting. By the time a person has fasted one day and a night, he will experience a freedom from pain and a clearness of mind, in delighiful contrast with that mental stupor and physical pain felt b^ colds. And how infinitely better is this method of breaking up cold than niedicines ! To Make Roots Water-proof. — Melt 3 oz. each of rosin and beeswax, and stir in 1 pint of boiled oil, and heat all well together; when partly cool, add 3 oz. of oil of turpentine. Apply hot with a brush. Grain Cakes. — Beat to a cream three eggs and one table-spoonful of brown sugar; stir in five table-spoonfuls of rye flour, three of wheat flour, two of com flour, a little salt, and milk enough to make a thin batter; bako it on a hot griddle, and butter while hot.
