THE GOOD OLD DAYS.
"REMINISCENCES OF APPLE BUTTER
MAKING AND "FLANNEL KICKING"
Two Popular Customs which Prevailed
Among the Settlers Away Back-How
the Apple Butter WAS Made-FuIIing
the Home Made Flannel.


the Apple Butter WAS Made-FuIlins
the Home Made Flannel.
81 have seen many newspaper accounts
recently OF customs that prevailed among
the settlers away back, all Of them born
of necessity. But there were two that
prevailed in Coshocton, the county in
which | was raised, in the great old state
of Ohio, that seems TO have been over
looked or probably entirely forgotten.
One of them was apple butter boiling and
the other was flannel kicking Talk about
the fun they had at apple cuttings, corn
huskings, quiltings, etc, but for genuine,
uproariOus fun flannel kicking would
knock them all out in one round. Every
new house had its old one, which was left
standing, generally in close proximity 10
the new, which was used for all manner
OF purposes. The old fashions loom,
which almost every thrifty farmer pos
scssed, was set up there. The big broad
fireplace, 5 or 8 feet wide, with its big
crane on which TO hang heavy kettles and
pots, was always in order and was used
when boiling the apple butter, a large
copper kettle always being used for the
purpose. But few families could afford
the luxury of a large copper kettle, couse-
Guently one served a large neighborhOOd,
going the rounds every apple butter sea

BOILING APPLE BUTTER.

apple butter-always two fellows with
their best girls. 1t required constant stir
ring, which was usually done with
board about inches wide by
about = feet long, with holes bored
through it and handle about feet long,
so that the fellow and his best girl could
handle 1t easily While they stirred the
other couple were having a most delight
ful time off in one corner of the room,
there being no light except q dim, relig
ions one from the fire. OF course they
changed places quite frequently, for the
couple at the handle could not endure
that kind of thing for any length of time,
knowing what high old time the Other
couple were having away off in the cor
ner. They were being deprived OF their
opportunities. This thing usually lasted
all night, and as a rule the little party
were not interrupted by meddlers, and
they had blissful season free from the
rude gaze of any one.
But the crowning glory, the boss fun,
was the flannel kicking. As have before
stated, almost every old house had its
loom, on which the women wove flannel.

THE failure OF wooden ties on railroads to
stand the stress of wind and weather, and
the dreadful drain their replacement makes
upon the forests of the country, have been
frequently adVerted TO. An authority on the
subjects concludes that the principal cause
OF their short life is not natural decay, but a
decay fastened by frequent laceratiou and
break ing Of the wood fibre by the rail spike,
the breakago in every instance beng from
the surface, which is un,hstered from
weather and subjected to constant strain
from passing trains. Experiments IN stone
and iron ties, he says, have proved very un-
unsatisfactory, the wood tie being declared
by railroad men unequaled. Anything that
will render the service OF the latter more
lasting must prove great boon. His own
observation leads him TO believe that rail
chair which will prevent the mutiiation Of the
tie in question, and at the same time avoid
the strain and wave motion impaired To rails
10y passing trains, will add to theaverage life
of the wood tie nearly one hundred per cent
aud would at the same time decrease the cost
OF track mainten nance.

THE sulphur water from the coal mines at
Lykens aud several other points pours into

and has never yet extended farther than the
middle. This impure water Is as clear as

river where this mine water flows must
either move to the other side when 1t comes
or perish. Millions of fine fish have teen
killed by this poison and sometimes the
stream is very thickly dotted with their car

about once annually, usually in midsummer
or autumn. There has always been much
