ANCIENT AND MODERN OYSTER Cook
ERY.-Concernmg earlier and later
methods of cooking oysters, Mr.. joel
Conklin read before a recent meeting
of the Society of Old Brooklynites a
paper, of which the subloIned was a
not uninteresting portion: "In early
days oysters were roasted on gridlron
fully two feet square: the back part OF
it would rest on the back leg and the
front on the fore stick, the oysters first
having been placed ON it with their
hollow sides down, The test to ascer-
tam when sufficiently cooked was to
press the shells together with the
tongs and Judge from the escaping
steam, knack which may readily be
acquired. In roasting over blazing
wood fire the flame would envelop the
oysters and cook them equally we'll at
top and bottom. Those who have never
eaten oysters from the shell as taken
from the fire have yet to eat their first
really good roasted oysters. Although
over half a century ago oysters were
cooked in the regulation stew pan, yet,
until coal was in more general use,
chatting dishes were mostly used for
cooking stews, and to this Gay no meth
cd has been devised to make as good a
soyter stew as can be cooked in a chat
ing dish Consumers who understood
their business always preferred to man.
ipulate their stews for themselves. after
having been provided with chafing
dish and spirit lamp ready for lighting,
the necessary table furniture and con-
dement's and the indispensable freshly
opened oysters, without which a good
oyster stew is an 1mpossibility. The
best fry procurable fifty or sixty years
ago was far inferior to the fry now
served, although then oysters of proper
size and quality for frying were much
more abundant than now. The oysters
were either covered with rolled cracker
or heathenlsh mess was made by mix
ing them with batter, and in either case
they were usually cooked with lard.
Broiled oysters were then almost unat-
tsinable, and l used to hear it said that
oysters could only be properly broiled
on gridIron provided with silver bars.
Oysters are much better brolied than
tined, especially for dyspeptics.

A STICK of wood burned on the sur.
face mostly passes off in gas, leaving
only the ashes, but the same stick, II
burnt in coal-pit excluded from the
air, folms a mass of carbon OF nearly ol
quite Its original size. Now, all decay
of vegetable matter is slow combus'
ton, and when this Is done under the
soil not only are the gases retained IN
the soil, but more carbon is formed, land
this carbon has the power to appropri-
ate the valuable gases always present in
the atmosphere. The great value oi
clover as fertilizer is due, first to the
carbon furnished by the decay of the
plant, and second to the fine mechanical
effect on the soil, which renders it por-
ous, SO that the atmosphere penetrates
it and deposits plant food. 1t is clear
that better fertilizing effects will result
from the ploughing down of the crop to
decay in the soil. Ordinarily more can
be made out OF the tops than they are
worth for manure, and, if nightly man.
aged, the roots will supply the needed
fertility.

AGRICULTURE.

GARDEN HEKBs Every well kept
garden should have a proportion # gar.
den herts, but with the exception of
some coarse fellows, which know how
to take care of themselves, such as cat
nip and chamomile, there are seldom
sny to be found. Sage, thyme and
parsley are seldom grown except for
market. OF parsley We have frequently
given hints. 1t must be sown very ear
ly. and on cool, rich ground; and If the
seeds do not appear for a month one
must have patience, for it often takes
long time TO decide what it intends to do
about it. In regard to sage, many have
it for a year or SO, when it disappears.
To have sage continually 1t Is best to
take it up every second year, split 1t
apart and set in the ground much deep
or than it was before. Roots then come
out from the vigorous young wood, and
the Ila:ts seem better adapted to stand
extremes of heat and cold than when
the branches are exposed on long stalks.
Sage is not SO liable to get killed out in
the winter when it is cut back IN the
fall. Many cut back some of it for dry.
ing. Indeed, dried sage, is the form In
which If is chiefly used. Thyme usu
ally manages to live though nothing IL
done to it; but it is also better for being
cut back every fall ard for an occasion

Talk With the Agent The Mills to

trial Matters.

Mr.. Tuttle Coulver, a representative OF
the Swift Dressed Beef Company of Chica-
90, arrived here early yesterday morning.
The gentleman was busily engaged all day
perfectlng arrangements for the opening OF
their refrigerator building, which is stu
ated Just south of the Baltimore and Ohio
passenger depot, on Water street.
Last evening REGISTER reporter
accosted the gentleman at the Mcclure
house for the purpose of ascertaining when
the building would be opened and the Chi
cago dressed beef placed on the market.
He informed the scribe that as yet there
was really nothing worth MENTIONING; the
contract for filling and keeping the refrig-
orator building full OF ice had been let TO
Zanitz Bros, of this city, and Mr.. Henry
Zoeckler had accepted the agency at this
point for the company. The company
propose to bring nothing but the very best
of dressed beef to this market; in fact that
is the only kind they kill. What the price
of beef will be, is, Of course, entirely gov
erned by the cattle market, but 1t
certainly would not be very high. The
gentlemen left for Cumberland on the IL
o'clock train last night to get their build
ing at that place in operation. Mr.. Henry
Zoeckler will leave for Chicago next Mon
day to perfect his arrangements with the
firm. There will be no dressed beef on the
market before the 2lst inst, If then.

VALLEY GROVE, w. VA, July II, 1856
Our farmer friends in this vicinity have
during the past few days, been treated to a
practical mower trial on the farm OF Mr.
John Reed, near this place.
Wishing to purchase mower that would
do satisfactory work, Mr.. Reed invited the
agents of the different mowers IL the
neighborhood to drop in and have friend
~ contest in field OF as heavy grass as
Ohio county can boast OF, and the agents
of the Eureka and Johnson promptly re.
sponded and each put in a machine and
did their best licks on Saturday last.
In one portion OF the field the
grass was badly down and very heavy
and in this they failed to do satisfactory
work and repeatedly choked, and wood pit
mems flew into first class kindling wood so
fast that Mr.. Reed will not need a new sup
ply of that article before Christmas, but il
was claimed, however, that no machine
could cut that grass without frequent
choking. At this point a request was made
for Buckeye mower to try lift could wade
through, and it was on Tuesday shipped
up from Wheeling and was promptly put
to work, although no agent ccompanied
the machine, and it did its work as only
the Buckeye mower can. To its credit 1t
can be said it never made one single balk.
We would, however, state that about one
half acre OF the worst down grass was re.
served until this morning July III, when
Messrs. R. X. Clifton aud l. P. Sisson
dropped in to see if that Buckeye could
cut that half acre without taking run
ming hitch.
The half acre was cut without one single
break or choke, and Mr.. Reed signified his
hearty endorsement Of the Buckeye by
promptly settling for it on the spot, and
those who witnessed the work OF the Buck
eve in that field will never hereafter doubt
its ability to wade through any grass that
can be grown. Rex,

WAR OF WORDS

Between Bsnw0od Ladies' - Incipfent
Prize Fight Personal Items.
Quite a war of words took place between
a few of our young ladies few days ago,
and 80 warm did it become that our worthy
Mayor was called upon to suppress 1t. The
young ladies engaged in the unpleasant
affair are of reputable families and have
always borne the best of names, but this
action has somewhat lowered their reputa-
tons. We would advise them in the future
to avoid all such unpleasantness, ana they
will find it decidedly to their advantage;
The city Council met in regular session
Tuesday evening and transacted the usuai
routine business.
Our pleasant butcher friend August
Shade, Esq, will kill the boss bullock on
Saturday morning next. IT'S regular
Jumbo in size, weighing two thousand
pounds.
Benwood has a fall fledged attorney in
the person of Mr.. Jno. Rignor, of Pennsyl-
yania. He has hung his shingle on the
outer walls and says he has come to stay:
Two of our young men had quite dis
pute on Tuesday last as to which OF them
possessed the most sand, to use their own
expression, and in order TO settle the mat
ter agreed 10 repair ~ OlSc W the ssi'oh
waters of Boggs, Run, which is just outside
the corporation limits. They started and
had gone but few yards when the zeal OF
one Of them overcome his judgment and
he struck his com pet:tor for pugilistic
honors, knocking him down, for which he
was assessed by His Honor five and costs.
1t is very probable that the enterpris ing
owner OF the ferry here will have new

SagnciOus Animals,

Sam. Lopp, Of West Brownsville, has
cow and shepherd dog. Just below the
town are some lots wherein is the "Y," the
junction of the P. V. & c. railroad and the
Redstone branch. Upon the lands lying
along the railroad tracks which are not
fenced the COWS OF West Brownsville Craze.
Every morning as soon as she is MIXED,
Mr.. Loops COW is taken to the pasture by
the shepherd dog which remains with her
until the whistle blows to quit work. when
he takes her home to be MIXED. Whenev-
er the train whistles for the "Y," il any of
the cows are on the track, the dog will take
them by the ears and lead them OIL.
A few days ago bull dog came into the
pasture and took it upon himself to chas.
tise the shepherd dog. No sooner had he
commenced the task than he was sur.
rounded by the cows, taken upon their
horns and tossed out of the pasture.
