an interesting letter this week about
Nineland, the sanitarium and winter

Nineland is on the highest ridge in

are restored as DR.. Saddleson has
been restored since his residence
there, the place will become famous

York VS.. Baltmore.-The Delta Herald,
saws: "Years ago, Baltimore was the market
where the farmers of lower York and upper Har
ford counties sold their farm products and bought
their clothing and other family supplies. Nearly
every farmer would go to that city with his wagon
one or more times year for this purpose. When,
however, the York and Peach Bottom Railway,
in 1876 was built to this place, the tide began
to turn toward York; so that for several years it
has been matter of rare occurrence for market
wagon to go to Baltimore. The products of
farms have been shipped on the railroads to vari-
Gus points and the people have to great extent,
procured their family supplies in York. But now
that the Maryland Central Railroad has been
completed to Baltimore, the trade of this section
hangs to a very great extent, in the balance, and
it lies with the merchants of those two cities to
say in which direction it shall go. Since the
completion of the M. G. r. R., York and Balti-
more have been rivals for the trade of this Sec
ton Influenced perhaps, by the size of Balti-
more, some of the merchants of York at once
threw up the sponge and said, "That trade will
go to Baltimore and there is no use for us to try
to keep it." They were ready to surrender with
out battle. If die they must, they should die
game.
"To show that what we are speaking of is prac
ticable, we need but refer to the grain trade. 1t
was the general belief that when the M. c. r. Il.
was built, nearly all our surplus grain would 60
to Baltimore. And at first it seemed as If these
expectations were being realized. A few days ago,
however, we were somewhat surprised to learn
from our grain merchant, II. w. Ramsay, that
our wheat crop was nearly all going to York.
Thousands of bushels were going there, carload
following carload. On expressing cur surprise
and asking the reason Mr.. Ramsay, said, "Bati.
more cannot touch York now" P. A. & S. Small
knew the wheat from this section was the best
they got and they were determined to have it.
They held out proper inducements and got it.
What P. A. & S. Small have done, others can do
We who'd not urge our readers to deal in York
unless they can do better there. They should go
where, all things considered, they can do the
best. This will depend largely on the DISPOSE
ton manifested by the two cities"
Very naturally, the editor Of the Herald favors
York, but when the proper time arrives, he will
see the products of his county coming to Balti-
more. That city being better grain market
than York, will in time control all the grain rails
ed in Northern Hartford and the Delta section of
York county, and the merchants of those sections
will come to Baltimore to buy goods, from the
fact that they will have wider field to select
from, and get more accommodating prices on all
kinds of merchandise.

Storing Seed Potatoes.-A barrel is very

Storing Seed Potatoes.-A barreI IS very
convenient receptacle for holding seed potatoes in
winter, but one that has once held salt should
not be used. If the potato is in any way bruised,
enough of the salt will be absorbed from the wood
to cause decay. There will at best be an injury
to vitality of the eyes if kept in salt or phos-
phate barrel through the winter. A loose box
not more than eighteen inches deep and ventia-
ted is much better than any close receptacle. A
light cellar kept little above the freezing point,
is better than one that is warm and dark.

Treatment of Toothache.-For ordinary
nervous toothache, which is caused by the nervous
system being out of order, or by excessive fatigue
a very hot bath will so soothe the nerves that
sleep will naturally follow and, upon getting up,
the patient will feel very much refreshed, and the
toothache will be thing of the past. For what
is known as dumping" toothache hot, dry flannel
applied to the face and neck is very effective.
For common toothache, whichis caused by indiges-
ton, or by getting some strong, sweet acid, or
anything very hot or cold in decayed tooth,
little piece of cotton stepped in strong camphor,
or oil of cloves, is the best remedy.

Buried Treasure.-During the passage of
Gen. Kilpatrick's cavalry division in the vicinity
of Hanover Pa, in the latter part of June, 1868,
says the Spectator, several marauders of the COM
mand who had secured by some means or other a
large sum of money, variousy represented at $780,
600 and $4,000, found it dangerous to carry it
further than this point, and somewhere in the near
vicinity of town they buried the treasure, con-
sisting of United States Treasury notes of large
and small denominations, beneath large white
oak tree expecting to return for it at the close of
the war. Several years passed from the time of
the burial of the money until the close of the re-
bellion, and upon its close the parties returned
here in quest of the treasure but the identity of
the exact location of the spot where they had
buried it was hopelessly lost in their memory,
and after several weeks persistent and futile
search for the spot they were obliged to give up
the effort and take their departure empty handed.
Since then various parties in our town and vicin-
ity have been carefully searching for this buried
treasure, and the country for miles around in
every direction has been hunted over, but the
earth stubbornly refuses to reveal its secret.

and dredge them we'll with four place the pan
on hot part of the fire and let them brown
thoroughly then stir them and let them brown
again and so on until they are qnite done. They
