WASTE a:^i> extras AOANCE!

If a family waste one ounce uf flour per day, they waste yearly 22 pounds 13 ounces.

At this rate 20,000 families waste daily - - 1,250 pounds,

and yearly, - - - 450,000 do;

■which, at six cents per pound, Is $27,.000.

If a family wastes criinibs and other refuse maltcr from the kitchen, sufficient to fatten one hog of 200 pounds in a year: (at 15 cents a pound) $30 is wasted.

With 20,000 families, at the same ratio of a hog a piece, wasted for want of economy from the kitchen, only $600,000 U lost.

If a man chews si.x dollars worth of tobacco a year, 20,000 men will chew the no small sum of $120,000 worth in the same time.

If a man is idle one third of his working days In a year, he has lost, at $1,50 per day, allow- ing 300 working days, $150. 20,000 at this rate lose $3,000,000, only three millions!

If one man drinks a pint of liquor per week, at a dollar a pint, $52 go yearly; at which rate 20,000 use. $1,040,000 worth.

If a woman spins street yarn, one third of a year, (100 days) at 50 cents a day, she throws away $50, and 20,000 at this rate tlsrow away $1,000,000; long yarn!

If one family use a poand of tea per month, at $2 per lb,, 20,000 will drink $430,000 worth.

If a nippy pays ten dollars for flounces and extra tacks and tucks a year, for dresses, in order to attract attention by wrinkles, $200,000 is the pretty fashionable sum for 20,000 fami.ies!

Ribons, artificials, parascls and extra tucks, ditto, do., $200,000.

If she neglects to manufacture five hats or bonnets from straw, worth about one dollar a piece, there are $5 lost, and with 20,000 famlLcs $100,000. ;

If a wonian talis to manufacture from our Mountain Sulphur, her own matches, and also tinder, for firing, when she by so doing could save $2 peryear, 20,000 fdmilies lose $40,000 at the same rate.

But to cut a great matter short, the grand total of all this waste and extravagance, among the 20,000 families Is six millions, eight hundred and seven thousand dollars! The mere tith- ing of which, In flvo years, would build a Temple worth more than three mllllousi Ver- ily waste and extravagance among Saints, costs more than sickness and grasshoppers. See that nothing is lost. Mormonlsm Is the honey of human happiness.

How much does Deseret lack of 20,000 families? and how long before the number will swell to 40,000? Then with th« wafts and extravacanoe of tha world, sha could waste million* and latnlllloBt (ufTer,

Rfilc and Examples to Dominical Tables.

HULE.— Find the Dominical Letter for the given year against the given month; »nd thr figures below the letter tlsuS found are the Sundays of that month, from the nearest of which to the given day, count backward and forward.

Example 1. — On what day of the week was the American Independence declared?— 1776 b*« Ing L-ap year, the Dominical Letter th-e ten last months we find by Table 1, to boF; In the lln* with July, and under F, we have 7, 14, 21, 2S, the Sundays in that month— hence the 4ih wa« on Thursday.

EXA.MPLE 2. — "V^ashin^;^on was bom on the 22d of February, 1732. What day of the week was It? Tiiat yearbelns al-;o Leap Tear, the Dominical Letter the two first months was P, Against February and under F, we find the 4tli Sunday on the 24thj therefore the 22d was Friday. [Old Almanac,

RULE TO MEASURE WOOO, &c.

with a line, measure round the load or log, an ' also the length; then multiply the clrcnm- ference and length together and the product Is the answer tu feet and parts of fest. For In- stance, a load of wood 12 feet long and 11 feet round, gives a product of 132 feet, which U one cord and fuur feet.

A log 3 feet 6 inches In circumference and 20 feet long, gives 70 feet; which Is a halt cord and 6 feet of wood. Where a load of poles is loose or brnKhy, allowanca should be made. TO MEASURE liOXES.

Multiply the depth, length and breadth together; and again multiply that product by 4 and divide by 10, and you have the number of bushels It will contain. For instance, a box 8 fetS Ion?, 3 feet wide and four feet high will contain 33 4.10 bu-^hels. So, also, a box, 10 ft. square win hold 400 hcshels cf grain. For example, 10 x 10 = 100 x 10^ 1000 x 4 = 4000.- 10 = 400 bushels.
