AS the season has arrived when every
consideration ofcleAness and health prompts
to the use Of lime upon buildings, fences,
&c, we give the following recipe for pre-
pairing the celebrated stuccO whitewash,
used on the east end of the Presidents
house at Washington coloFing may be so
added as to give any desirable tinge to the
preparation


"1'ake half bushel Of nice, unslacked
lime, slack il with boiling water, covering
it during the process to keep in the steam.
Strain the liquor through fine seive or
strainer, and add to it peck of clean salt,
previously desolved ia warm water three
pounds Of ground rice, ground to thin
paste and stirred and boiled hot half a
pound Of powdered Spanish whiting, and
a pound Of clean glue, which has been pre-
viously dissolved by first soaking it well,
and then hanging it over a slow fire, in a
small kittle, within large one filled with
water. Add FIVE gallons Of. hot water to
the whole mixture stirit well and let il
stand few days covered from the dirt
It should be put on quite hot; for this Pur-
pose it caR.b kept in kettle on aPortable
furnace. It is said atabout one pint of
this mixture will cover . square yard upon
the outside Of a house ifproperly applied
Brushes more or less small may be used,
according to the neatness OF the job requr-
cd. II retains its brilliancy for many years.
There is nothing of the kind that will com
