Baumann, of Pittabarg, Pa., gives the following method, which in his hands worked to paxfuctlou: Having filled a clean kog or barrel with fresh eggs, he covers the eopa with cold salicylic water. The epga munt be kept down by & few emall boards floating on the water, and the wholo covered with cloth to keop out If ret in a cool plecs the eggs so packed will keop fr ¢ months, bat they must bo used as soon as they are teken out of the brine, To make the salicylic wolution, dis- solve salicylic acid (which costs about about $3 a poond) in boiling water, one tableapounful of acid to the gal- lon. It is not neceseary to boil all the water, as the acid will dissolve in a less quantity, and the rest may be added to the solation cold, The solu- tion or brine should nt no time come in contact with any metal, In a clean, alry cellar one brine {s suffi- cient for three months or more, othoz- wise it should be renewed oftener. For that purpose the kegs, etc., should be provided with a wocden spigot to draw off the liquid and replenish the veasel, Butter kneaded in thesame solution, and packed tight in clean stone jars, will keep fresh the whole winter, but must be covered with muslin saturated 1o the water, renewing it sometimes. Oover the jars with blottling paper saturated with glycerine. Salicylic acld is harmless, and yet one of the best and certainly most plessant disin- fectants in existence, with no color, emell or taste. The water is an ex- cellent toothwash, and the best gargle to prevent dlphtherltlc contagion, Hedge Fence. Towa Homestead. It makes but little difference whether you plant Osage orange or hawthorn for fencing in your farm. | Either one makes a good fence when properly attended to, and nelther one makes a fence at all when neglected. The Osage orange will make a fence in less time than hawthorn, but it will cost more to keep It In order, on ac- count of its thrifty growth, unless you let it take its own course, as our worthy (or uaworthy) trustees do the one growing on the burisl grounds of our county seat. Siid hedgeis twenty- five or thirty feet bigh, and where it is thin enough for a cow to walk | through they have put in boards and cailed them to the hedge. That kind of & fence I would call & nuisance, The nics thing about & well set hedge tence Is, you clways have a surplus of materlal, and the brush or trimmings will uhuy- pay to gather and burn thew, whereas, In repairing a rail fence you must alwaye supply new rails in place of those that have rotted out, The hedge fonce, if taten care of, is an everlasting fence. I never koew one to dle that was taken care of. I could show you hedge fences more than a hundred years old, and good fence yet—gocd enough to turn hogs or horses. I would advise every PHYSICIAN AND SURCEON, 222 Proadwav. CounoiliBluffs farmer that has & nice laying farm to plant hedge fence for road and line fences. It don't make any difference whether it is hard froze, or wet from the last big raln, you can trlm hedge fonco all the same; in fact, winter is the time to shape up the hedga fence. With a good hedge fonce around yonr farm you can rest comtented till morn- ivg, without being afraid the wind will blow down the line fence and let your neighbor’s atock in on your fields of grain. I admit there are other kilnds of fence that ciu be made quicker and cheaper than hedge, but they will eventually rot cut, and then to replace makes thewm the most costly of the two. Noi so with the hedge. It starts up every spring and puts out its leaves, and appears to en- Jjoy life with tho fresh grass and grow- ing grain, As for the hedge dying out on account of thin seil, it 1s out of the question when sod is put uuder and subsoil on top;-the leaves from the hedge will kaop the soil rich enough. Iwould rather attribute the cause of the hedge dying to the surplus of stagnant water poisoning the roots, Poultry Houses aud Vermin. Philsdelphia £ eoord, To be euccessful in raising poultry ons of the firat things to ba considered is o suitable house, An expznsive or elaborate house is uwot a neczasity, but a disadvantage, in poultry koep- ing. The two great drawbacks in the way of success are cold and vermin, The costly house affurds no protection from either, But bnild a plain (the plalner the better), subatantial house, one that can bo cleased in a short time, and well ventilated. And be sure to have the laying boxes at a lttle dlstance from tho roost, that they may be kept free from lce. Make two sets of boxes, so that when one set gets dirty it may be replaced with the other set, and clean and whitewash ready to change when the other set gets dirty. Of the three kinds of insects moat troublesome to the fowlthe mite is the worat and hardest to get rid of. The body and feather louse can be rolled off by the hen in the dust-bath, and may be drilyen away by .pplylng Persian in- sect powder or some other insect killer. But they eeldom breed 1in such numberaas to completely over- run a fowl, But the mite breeds on the poultry-houte, not on the fowl, and does not even need the presence if a fowl to propagate. The mite is analogous to the chlnch, or the bad- bug, and, ‘“oving dnrkneua rather than Ught,” beosuso its deods are evil, at- tacksits victims on the roost and leaves thom in the v This 18 the lit. tle fellow wh destractive to the sitting hen, which hes no chanon during the day o prevent its attacks. A dusting of Persion Powder two or three times o week is & great help to the hen; but it does not destroy the myriads which dwell in every erack and crovice of a board, Henco the necessity of having ss plain & house as possible, thus avoiding hidiog places for the lice. While the insec’ powder is a great help, yet tho firet timo the hen leaves her nest she shakes the in. scoticide from her feathers, and when she goes back the mites renew their assaults, The sittlag period 18 a severe ordeal to a hen, and usually leavea her nothing but skin and bones, Her comb is shriveled and colorless, and her feathers are in the same von- dition. This is the effoct of vermin, as may be shown by noting a hen that hae set in some place distant from the poultry-house. She haa lost some of her bright color, and her feathers are not as bright as they should be; yet a week or two will put her in good con- ditton sgain, A large percentage of eggs in an in- festod nost fail to hatch, it belng im- possible for a hen to sit closely enough to keep up the requisite temperaturo, The coustant twisting of a hen to fizht the lico admits a littie oold air to the eggs, and they become rotten, and whon an egg becomes rotten (the cause beiug due to the death of the embryo from lack of heat in wmost cases), its contonts bogins to exhude through the pores of the shell, and then the mites awarm to the eggsand stick there and increase so rapidly that the hen is oompelled to leave her nost, or if she refases to leave her nost, she often lies a victim to lice. It will be seen that the larger and more claborate and complicated the poultry house the more cracks for the vermin to breed in and the harder they are to exterminate, If the house s plain 1t can be cleaned with little labor and expense. Formerly chiciens were allowed to find their own roosting places, and the cholera and croup were vnknown, The birds willlive oat all winter, but common fowls are educated blrds or euscop:ibla of education, and theze in little troublo in inducing them | to sleep indoor:; In tact, they are more than willing, as may be seon fn cold weather, when they hant for a ahed or somo other sheltered place, Houses should ba provided thet will retain the hesithy ponditions of the trees and yet protect them frcm the oold and storrs, Lock to your honses and see that they are in a good condltion, Renovating Old Gardens. American Gardener, After a garden has been malntained in the same place tor many years it sometimes loses its productive power, ln lpne ot repeated wnd heavy manur- Many kinds of vegetables refuse to thrlve, and it becomes necessary to change the garden-plat, or infuse niew life into the cloyed soil by a perlod of rest and a partial return to a state of natare, The location of the vegetable garden is not always a matter of cholce, and frequently there is but one place which unites the difforent requirements of soll, expodure and convonlence, and aftor this has been permaneatly ln- dlosad it is annoying to arrive ata period when the gardeu hecomes un able t0 meet jromptly the demands upon it. Tt haa long Veen known that heavily stocking an old garden with r<d clover, and allowing 0 to rewein two years without plowiug, will bring the soil back to its fertility and vigor. This is sometimes done by farmers, but it 1s hard to persuade a village resident to adopt a remedy o far outside of his usual conrse, As a subetitute which, under certaln conditions, is even bot- ter than clover, { would recomrmend plantiog stawborries, Oae-half of the garden may be planted at a time, leav- ing the other half for the ralsing of such vegetables as still continue to flourlsh, Plow at the usual time, and In Aprl plant strong plants of any very vigor- ous variety, with perfect blossoms and desirable fraft, in rows thirty inches spart and liheeu ivches in the row, Keep clean and allow the run- nera to cover all the ground. Late in the fall muich lightly with chopped straw, and in the following spring pull up any weeds that show themselves. Under anything but extraordinary vircumstances—euch as a very late | frost or peculiarly unfavorable weather at blooming time—you willin June pick a large crop of berries, which will bo a trifls» more difficalt to | pick than if they were in separate rows Atter plcking remove all large | or tall.growing weeds that may have grown end leave the plantation for for another year's frulting, mulohing again in winter. Tho result will be a crop of berries nearly as largo as the firat, Immediately after bearing, the heavy crop of old and new plants | which covers the land chould be plowed under and the ground planted to lata cabbages or Swedish turnips. Tho following spring it will be in con- dition to grow a very large crop of early potatoes, follownd by celery. After this the ground will be fit for any garden crop, and the othor half of the garden can be subjec.ed to the same rotation, The result of treating & gardon oncs in ten or twolve yenra to a chango of this kind -will bho emi- nently eazisfactory and profitable.
