A correspondent says: To obtain
good cider the expressed juice must re-
main short time with the pomace,
which has been crushed or bruised, not
cut, as is done by most patent cider

the new ones cut them. We found fifty
years ago that with the advantage we
then had of the old fashioned mill. it
was better to grind or crush the apples
and then let the pomace remain in The
trough at least ten or twelve hours, aud
If the weather was cool, let it remain

ten days before it will be issued to the public.
The note will be about one-quarter of an inch
shorter than that now in circulation, and about
,one-quarter of an inch wider; its dimensions
being 3-4ths inches long by inches wide. On
the face of the note, left hand side, is viguette
head of Samuel Dexter, who was Secretary Of
the Treasury in 1901, and former Governor of
Massachusetts. On the right of the note is
section of geometrical lathe work, with the
words ''fifty cents in white letters, engraved
across abe face. The lettering on the note is
the same as on the present issue, with the ex-
ception of the words receivable for all U. S.
stamps" at the bottom of the old note, which
are omitted OH the new one. The seal is print
ed in the centre of the face, and is enclosed by
cyclOdal work, new feature upon
fractional currency. The back of the note,
which will be printed in New York, will be in
green. 1t is made up of geometrical lathe work
and SCROLLS On the right hand corner the word
"cents," found on the old note is omitted, and
a numeral2 takes its place. The date of the
passage of the act authorizing the isiue, is omit
ted from the face of the new note, and put on
the back thereof. On the left hand side of the
back there is an open space to show the fibre in
the paper, and it will not be shown on the face
much as in the old note. The new note of
course, will take the place of the one now in
circulation, as the present issue has been coun-
terfeited, although not to any great extent.
