TO SAYE FUEL. 
After trying many ways ofheating rooms, a sheet iron stove has been found most saving of wood. But such a stove, 
unless perpetually regulated, is very flashy—too hot or too cold. Race’s Self-Regulating Stove, removes all dif- 
Acuities—we have found it to heat a room from zero to mild summer heat 
in five minutes, and then to maintain this temperature evenly all day. It 
A|!L requires only about half the fuel needed for a good hot-air furnace with 
eight drums. With coarse wood, it will keep a slow fire all night. By 
turning the register, which is done in one second, the heat may be 
kept steadily at any desired temperature. When the fire burns too 
fast, its heat shuts down the valve; if too slow, up goes the valve and 
lets in a whiff of wind, and it blazes afresh. 
Two precautions are needed—one to reverse the pipe joints, to pre¬ 
vent the dropping of the liquid soot; and the other, not to put in at 
once so much wood as to prevent a faint draught at the valve, which will 
prevent puffs and explosions. 
-«©*- 
KEEPING AND SETTLING ACCOUNTS. 
We have, for a long series of years, watched pretty narrowly the habits 
of many farmers, and we have found that those who keep constant and 
accurate accounts, and settle regularly and punctually with their neigh¬ 
bors, also keep all their farm operations in neat and regular order. 
On the other hand, those who are careless and slack in settling or pay¬ 
ing their debts, also keep a slip-shod account with every part of their 
farms—no system, no clock-work regularity is maintained in their yearly 
routine of work. They also waste time in hunting for displaced tools, 
waste money by doing work out of season, and waste happiness by fret¬ 
ting over the disorder and confusion which their own hands have created. 
To avoid these evils, begin the year anew, by settling .in some shape or 
other with every debtor and creditor—and keep a strict and careful 
account with every body, but more especially with yourselves—and lay 
out all work with regularity, and execute it with energy.
