TO HAVE GREEN BEANS PEAS AND
...-a..z-s~-s-- CORN IN WINTER 49,. -.

A gentleman says that he saw in January
green peas us succu!cnt, to all appearances. az
they were when plucked from the vine five or
six months before. The mode Of preparing
them is to pick, when Of the proper size for
eating, shell, and carefully dry in cloths in the
shade. All care necessary is to prevent them
from moulding, this done, they will be fine and
sweet the following spring. Beans may be
preserved in the same way, and with perfect
success.
Green corn may be preserved in the follow.
ing manner: pluck the ears of corn when fit for
boiling, strip off the husks, ard throw the ears
into kettle Of boiling water, leave them in
until the water boils over them, when thew
must be taken out; sh, off the corn BY run
ming the prong Of a fork along the base Of the
grain holding the ear with one end against tho
brcast-this is more expeditions, and saves all
the grain, including tie heart or germ, which is
the sweetest part.
After being thus prepared, it must be spread
out thin on cloths, in a shady, airy place to
dry; it should be stirred every day until dried
thoroughly. When cooked, it should be put in
cold water, and boiled an hour or more, the
water to be pretty well boiled of. When the
water is nearly of, little milk added to it will
improve the taste. Madison Tribune
