''Apples may be kept a long time beyond

We kept apples this year, that were in

we could, without doubt, have kept them

dent writes to the Oxford Press that he under
stands that 1t is in contemplation to make an eff
fort to divide Chester county, and possibly Lam

Oxford shall be the county scat. The writer
says;-
THE advantages of the proposed arrangement
are so obvious that il is anticipated there will be
very strong pressure brought to bear from all
the lower portion OF this county to bring about
that result and although the inhabitants Of the

Of this section of the county to be compelled to

in travelling from thirty to fifty miles, when hall
