How 10 Dry Peaetes. 1t is rath
Ell out of season, but do your read
crs know how to dry peaches? Take
those of the best quality, just as
they are ripe enough to eat, halye
them, remove the stones, and sprin-
kle over them, in the hollow from
which the pit was taken, little nice
sugar; dry them in III brick oven
after the bread, &c, is withdrawn.
They are far better than if they
were dried in the sun, retaining the
aroma and flavor, and besides are to-
tally free from ms bets. Prepared in
this way, from teaches fully ripe,
they need no cooking, but are simply
soaked out in cola water. All the
sugar they require ranging of course
with the variety)is added while dry
ing. Peaches thus dried and pre-
pred, are only inferior to fresh fruit,
Of which they retain the flavor in a
remarkable degree. II you prefer,
take them not quite so ripe, and peel
theIrait, but the flavor is not so
good as when fully ripe, and it dis
.sipates more in the process Of. dry

the same cures are prepared by those who know
not what they do. The subject is one de-

hesitate between really valuable medicinal
preparation and one which is only pretending
and injurious compound. Let purchasers lie
