buckskin. If they are well washed in hot soap suds, and rinsed in clean
hot water every day, and let dry quickly near the fire or in the sun,
they will seldom require rubbing.
TO CLEAN STOVES.
Mix some British lustre with alum water; put it on with a brush, and
with a dry brush rub it off.
TO PRESERVE CORN FOR WINTER USE.
Take off all the outside husks; fasten the inside ones down tight, and
pack in barrels or boxes with salt in alternate layers; keep in a cool
place, or the corn will heat and spoil.
TO PRESERVE GRAPES.
Gather the bunches on a dry day; be careful that the grapes are all
sound; pack them in sawdust or cotton: put them in a box; fasten it up,
and keep in a dry place.
