While the township and corporation can
didates are making things lively in old
Madison township, the county aspirants are
not forgotten. So far as the sheriffality is
concerned. this neck of woods seems to
lean decidedly toward John Waddle for
the place. John Is not fussy, but is getting
in most effective work on the quiet. We do
not wish to disparage the other can
didates, but we do say emphatically that in
Mr.. Waddle the county has got no one with
better record. both as civilian and soldier.
and certainly none who would bring greater
credit to the office than he. Uncle Billy"
Baker not excepted. The city of Spring
field owes their present sheriff to Madison
township, without which Mr.. Baker would
not have slid in by nine votes two years
ago, and your city can now repay the debt
by rendering to our township the choice OF
that officer.
For county commissioner We believe the
unanimous choice of this end of Clark
is for Mr. r. n. Elder, of Greene township.
No more capable man could be found than
he, and none better known nor more popu-
lar throughout the county than he. Let it
be Elder. by all means.

Most Of the best oysters sold at raw
boxes and restaurants are taken by tong
men, while the very finest are caught
with nippers, which is now in a small way
commencing to be one of Mdryland's 8
sports. The tongmen form a very large
army of men catching oysters in Mary
land waters, and while the size and
QCality of their production are far supe-
rior Go that caught by dredgers, the
prodrct is much smaller, being a trifling
prop ,rtion of what is annually caught in
the Chesap sake. Tongs are only used in
shallow water and over beds which, in
many cases, are the property of the tong
men. The oysters are caught from q
small boat, usually operated by two men,
one on either side. The tongs consist of a
pair of rakes with the teeth curved IL
ward and attached to wooden handles
from fifteen to twenty feet long, which are
joined by pin about one-third Of the
distance from the iron. The tongman has
a platform placed amidships across his
little craft, and wher over his beds he
plunges his tongs into the water and.
working the handles, secures a few fine
oysters, possibly not more than half a
peck. This he repeats until he has Sc

are large and fine and bring good prices.
The largest and finest oysters taken are
caught with nippers over planted ground,
one at a time, planted early and contin-
ually fed, for you can feed an oyster.
They grow to enormous sizes and bring
correspondingly large prices.-Philadel.

Tie Need for Salt.

The Importance of salt as an
article of diet, according to a
scientific writer, is Oyerrated. A
continued use of large quantities OF
salt produces scurvy. The popular
belief that an appetite for salt is
universal among the lower animals
Is without foundation in fact
Dogs, cats and other carnivOrous
animals shOw no tondness for it,
aud the same is true of the fruit
eating animals. Even herbivOr0us
animals do not east salt regularly
with their food, but only at long
intervals, which suggests the
thought that perhaps they take 1t
as a vermifuge. In certain parts
of the wOrl d where salt is unknown
antelopes abound in countless
numbers, and in parts Of Africa
where salt is abundant the ante
lopes show no fondness for It,
There are many instances in which
flocks of sheep and herds Of cattle
have been reared successfully with
oat salt. In certain parts OF
Central Africa salt is more scarce
than gold, aud to say that a certain
mau eats salt Is 10 say that he is
very rich. Yet the people living
there have existed for ages and
have enjoyed the best of barbarous
health without a taste of salt from
infancy to old age. Salt is not in
use in Siberia as common con-
stituent of food, and the same was
true OF the North America u In.
dams previous to the discovery OF
the continent by Europeans, and
for many years after, and is still
true Of the Pampas Indians OF
South America.

FARM and HOSBHOLD.
Storing cabbaaes for Winter Use.

Every season the old problem oil
the best mode of keeping cabbages
in winter is discussed, some grow
ers advising burying the cabbages
heads up, while others advise
heads down. This question may
be disposed of briefly thus: If the
heads are mature and solid they
should be buried roofs up, bat
loose heads can be pitted roots
down, so as to grow and make
solid heads by spring.
One of Ohio's progressive farm
ers, Waldo f. Brown, writing in
Ohia Farmer, says:
To bury cabbages select dry land
with a slope to carry of the water,
pull them on dry day and if there
ls.any water in the heads invert
them aud let them drain. Open a
trench eight inches deep, and wide
enough for about four rows of heads
packed as closely as they can be-
You Will leave a part of the loose
leaves to protect them and no
straw will be needed, but the earth
may be shOveled directly on to
them. Put on from ten to twelve
inches of earth and shape it mp so
as to keep out the rain. After the
ground freezes protect the pit with
straw or corn fodder, so as to pre-
vent freezing and thawing, as this
Is what spoils them. Enough for
use up to Christmas may be stored
in boxes In a cool cellar.
Loose heads may be stored roots
down, and will grow and make
solid heads by spring. Open a fiat
trench four or five feet wide and
set row across the upper end
setting them at an angle OF 10
degs., with the heads packed as
close as possible, then cover the
roots with earth, tramp it down ON
them and place another row with
the heads resting against the roots
of the first row. When your pit is
filed il will show a solid mass OF
heads. Now put up boards a foot
wide OF more around the edges and
cover to this depth with light
litter, using first corn fodder and
then leaves, and put root over 1t,
and although the heads may freeze
a little, the roots will not, and the
cabbage will mature and be crisp
aud fresh IN the spring. Ifyou see
signs of mice, put some pieces lot
apple with little strychnine on
them around the top of the pit.
