zEfINa POTATOES we are go
ing to harvest and store a crop of pO-
tatoes with a view to preserving their
good qualities, L would in the first
place see to it that they were dug as
soon as they we're Tipes and when the
ground was dry. In digging / would
use a potato hook or fork, but not a
hoe, as it is a bad Instrument If you
wish to avoid cutting the tubers. AT
ter allowing the potatoes to lie q short
time on the surface to dry, would sort
them, and place the soundest and best
in barrels, heading them up at once, or
put them into small tight bins In a
cool cellar, and Immediately cover them
with sand In order to exclude the light
and air as much as possible.
Those / wished to keep for summer
use ( would gather into pits of 70
bushels each, and give them a covering
of long rye straw six inches IN thick
ness, and a light covering of earth at
first, increasing it at the approach OF
cold weather, ard leaving a small vent
IN the top Of the pits, secured from
the liability of wet by a board or some
other covering They should be taken
out of the pits In early spring, put In
to barrels, headed up and placed in a
cool cellar, or ice room, where the
temperature is low enough to keeT
them from sprouting. In all my man
ipUlations, would handle the tubers
as carefully as I would apples.
In this manner, potatoes, / maintain
may be kept until new ones come
again, and be nearly as fresh as WheI
first dug. IF thus preserved, we coulc
justly critieise the cook who would bl
SO foolish as to stick knife into
tuber before Il was placed on the tablt
ready TO be eaten.-I'he Circular.

To command the highest price in mar
ket the birds should not be fed for "a
hours before killing. Kill them by
sticking in the back of the neck with
sharp pointed knife; then hang up by
the legs to bleed. Remove the feath-
ers while the body is warm, clean the
entrails carefully, then cut off the head
and draw the skin over the neck and

pack in boxes holding from 100 to 200

BoNED TURKEY.-This noble bird,
the pride Of American tables, cannot
easily be recognized after undergoing
the culinary process termed ''boning, .
but for a cold relish nothing moro ac-
ceptable need be sought. It is a favor
ite dish at evening parties. 1t may be
thus prepared: Boil a turkey in as
little water as may be, until the bones
can be easily separated from the meat.
Remove all the skin, cut the meat in
thin slices, mixing together the light
and dark parts. Season with salt and
pepper. Take the liquid in which the
turkey was boiled, having kept it
warm, pour It on the meat and mix It
we'll Shape it like a loaf of bread,
wrap it in cloth and press with heavy
weight for a few hours. When served
up it Is cut in thin slices. Some Of
our professional cooks can shape il
somewhat like the original bird, so
that one cannot tell at once when it Is
seen that it is boned turkey; but this
requires skill and labor

It's to be hoped that 90 one will despair
of a cure until they have given the Indian
Herb Doctors medicines a fair and faith
ful trial. During the Doctors travels in
Europe, West Indies, East Indies, South
America and the United States, he has
been the instrument in Gods hand to re-
store to health and vigor thousands who
were given up and pronounced incurable by
the most eminent of school physicians; nay
more: thousa nds who were on the verge
Of the grave, are DOW living monuments to
the Doctors skill and successful treatment,
and are daily ezelaiming: BLESSED be the
day when first we saw and pariook of the
Indian Herb Doctors medicine.
Satisfactory references Of cures viii be
gladly and cheerfuIly given whenever re-
quired.
The Doctor pledges his sacred word and
honor that he will in wise, directly or indi-
Eectly, induce or cause an invalid to take
his medicines without the strongest proba
bility Of a cure.

BURNS. AND SoALDs.-In the st.
Louis Medical Reporter we find the
following prescription for this painful
accident. It is especially useful when
the cuticle or scarf skin has come away
to a considerable extent: Take one
draebm of fnely-poWdered alum and
mix thoroughly with the white of two
eggs and one teaspoonful Of fresh lard;
spread on a cloth, and apply to the
parts burnt. 1t gives almost instant
relief from pain, and by excluding the
air, prevents excessive infammatory
action. The application should be
changed at least once a day. While
on the subject, we give another ap-
plicatiOn to burns: In severe cases.
clear ereosote may be used, followed
by a dressing to consist of oreosote one
drachm, Ga teaspoonfUD, simple ceTate
one ounce mix thoroughly. The
ointment is sufficiently strong for most
cases. On the concurrent testimony of
several physicians, headed by Dr. o.
E. Brewster, the suggester of the rem
edg, 1t almost Immediately and com
pletely relieves the pain and smarting.

Anniversary Of the TrumbuI Medical
Society.

The second anniversary of this
Society, was held in this place, on
Friday evening last. The address
was delivered by Rev. BENZ. ST. JoHN
PAGE, before a large audience in
Webb's Hail.. The selection of a
pulpitarian to lecture before an assO-
citation of medical practitioners, seemed
a novel idea, and might perhaps indi-
cate to some minds that the Society
was sick spiritually. Be that as it
may, Mr.. PAGE was probably selected
because of his well-known ability to
entertain an audience, rather than for
his real or supposed familiarity with
the mysteries of mdterid Daedicd.
That he was entirely successful in
entertaining his audience, from the
opening to the closing of his lecture,
we opine all who heard him will
agree. It was the strangest medley
of sense and nonsense, pith, puns and
pepper-sauce, of criticisms, witicisms
and dogmatisms, that we have heard
reeled off for a long time, if indeed
ever before. Humor seems to be a
principaltra of the Rev. gentleman's
mental organism, and had inclination,
accident, or circumstances, in earlylife
induced hint to seek for histrionic fame,
it is not improbable that he would
have succeeded splendidly- We
think his good humOr is an invaluable
inheritance especially asi its nowhere
needed more than in his profession,
which, perhaps, has too often created
the impression that religion should
Lonly wear sOmbre robes, and that it
would wither under the sunshine OF
~fuI-fowing spirits and a jovial nature.
But we do not intend to discuss theol-
ogv. unless it be to add that we dc
not believe in his theory of the
bIessedness of the toOthache, any
more than we believe in the humani-
ty of the feline catastrophe he mar
rated.
W lAuOCNGl LAlN h1NS DNNAA AAcNoH
in regard to some of the theories ex-
bounded, we have no doubt the lecture
was regarded by all a success as an
entertainment; and that we believe,
was the special aim of the lecturere.
At the close of the lecture, the
members of the Society, most OF
whom were accompanied by their
wives and sisters, together with q
number of invited guests, repaired to
the Gilmore House, where the COM
pany sat down to abOuntifully spread
supper table, where the medical
admonition to avoid hearty late sup
pers, was for the occasion practically
treated as null and void.
After supper, DR.. MOORE, President
o" the Society, read several tOasts,
appropriate to the occasion, to which
brief responses were elected. After
spending some time in social confer.
ence IN the parlOrs, the company
! broke up about IL o'clock.

we may retrospect.

WEST BAZETTA, sept. -, 1865.
ED. CHRoNICLE:-We We're Swing
ing the circle of friends in West Ba-
zetta on Saturday last, and as the
shades of evening cast the gloom, so
common to travellers, around us we
were easily persuaded TO attend n dem
ocratic pow-wow on a limited scale, at
the center of Bazetta, where the all
dbSOrbing issues of the day We're TO be
discussed by two unsophisticated
sprigs of the law-AIcssrs. Orchard,
Jr., and a Mr.. Gafiey, McGafferty or
McGlothery, or some such name
Young Birchard first took his position
after being introduced by Major
| Downings, the honorable chairman
and read off his maiden speech" IN
very fair shape, with n few exceptions:
He told his audience, which consisted
of about 30 voters and Is children,-22
of the. former being sound asleep-that
the ''war had closed, and that thOus-
ands of their sens were sleeping their
] Iastsleepupon Southern battle-tields. y
Here the orator became so enthused
at his own eloqueuce that he lost his
place. and in order 10 gain his equi-
/ iibrium he repeated "battle-fields'-
"battle-ieIds r" and then went on to
( say that Mr.. Garfield was misrepre-
senting facts and deluding the people
terribly in all his speeches, and that
he Mr.. Birchard) was following in his
wake like a sea-gull after an ocean
steamerand "pickingup" the crumbs
of comfort which might be dropped
for democratic maws. His hearers
who were ''sweetly sleeping and
dreaming OF takes, +" bonds and the
"nigger,n here became very restless,
and he closed his reading as he conf
menced, by saying that ne chopped
they would not consider him pre-
sumptuous in addressing such old
heads" He thanked them for their
attention, as well he ought.
The next speaker was introduced
and clustered up like a bantam rOost-
er. and told a few anecdotes from the
"Nick-NaX" and gave Il rehash of the
first speakers effusiOn, with a slight
change of p~hraseology. The Ignorance
of both speakers was plainly visible
when touching upon the nationaldebt,
in particular. and upon the question
of revenue tax, in general.
To be brief, Mr.. Editor, these gen.
tlemen are failures as echoes of their
tutors. Yours, VISITOR.

EDITOR CHRoNICLE.-There is
something new under the sun. The
State of Rowland actually had a pO-
litical meeting at the town hall on the
evening of Saturday the Sd. A.gOod-
" number of the citizens, both ladies
and gentlemen, assembled at the APP
pointed hour, and after listening TO
some excellent music by the Kennedy
string band, were addressed by your
townsman, MI. E. b. Taylor, who in
an eloquent and forcible speech an
hour in length, set forth clearly the
duty of an American citizen at the
present time.
We would heartily recommend Mr..
Taylorto all Republicans who wish to
be confirmed in the faith, and to those
Democrats who are open to conviction
as a candid, earnest and powerful
speaker in the cause of Liberty and
Right. At the close of the speech
three cheers were given for the speak
er, andthe same for Grant and COlfaX.
According TO programme, the seats
were then placedrO one side, the band
struck up, and a number of the young
er persons with a few OF the older,
amused themselves FIR a short time in
tripping the light fantastic toe The
meeting then adjourned, all being well
pleased. You may rely on a good ma
jOrity from the State on the 18th of
October and 4th of November, or my
name is not REASON.

The Mass Convention.

On Saturday, October 10th, promises
to be one of the g~randest uprisings of
the Union people that ever startled
old Trumbull from her political sum-
bers.
Unless all "signs" fail there will be
a magnificent Rally of the Friends of
the Union on that day. The notes of
preparation are heard on every hand,
and the Republicans of the County are
wide awake.
We look TO see such a demonstra-
ton in old Warren as will tell grand
" upon the result at the Polls on
Tuesday next.
The Grant Clubs throughout the
county are up and dressed forthe fray,
and they propose assembling on the
10th to shout for Grant, Colfax and
Victory.
There is no installing the signs
and We earnestly invite every subscri-
Der to the Chronicle to bring his fam
lily along on the 10th, and enjoy
one of the old fashioned gatherings
! which lent such n luster to the palmy
DAYS of 1910.
