melted and the fruit heated through, then
strain and add the water from the kernels,
and boil the whole till the peaches are
tender and clear. The fruit is then taken
carefully out with long-handled skim
mers place upon large flat dishes or platters
and set in the sun to become firm.
Meanwhile the syrup is boiled till it is
clear and thick, when the jars are filed
three-quarters full OF the fruit, and the
boiling syrup is poured over to fill the
receptacles, which are sealed up in the
| usual manner. Jars that are without
covers may be secured by cloth with
thick paper tied tightly over.
PRESERVED WHOLE PEACHEs.-The
peaches and sugar of equal weight, are
put into the kettle in layers, as in the
case of cut peaches, set over the fire, and
pint of water to each four pounds of
fruit and suger is added. The syrup is
brought to boil, which continues for
half an hour, when the peaches are taken
carefully out and put on fiat dish in the
SUM- The syrup is boiled down till it is
thick and clear, when the peaches are
put back and boiled till they look clear,
when the whole is ready for putting into
cans, which are sealed when cool.
II PEACH JAM, WITHOUT CooKING.-Nice
freestone peaches are to be pared and cut
into smell pieces, rejecting everything
which is not entirely perfect. A stone jar
J is to be used, the bottom being covered
, with layer of granulated sugar, then a
, layer Of the cut peaches, packing closely
, and alternating layers of sugar and
} peaches till the jar is filed, the top layer
r Of sugar. The jar is then covered, and
thick paper is carefully pasted over, SO as
to exclude the air. This preparation will
t keep perfectly for several months, it is
) claimed, and may be used for pies, rolled
pudding or sauce. Two factors are i'm
. perative, however: there must be no faint
8 of decay in or about any particle OF the
a fruit when it is put up, and the air must
e be carefully excluded.

did you know that? Yet at the busy

of the sons has inherited his fathers
abilities to such an extent that the house
will probably keep up its prestige fol
another generation.

A curious fish, says the Dalles Chron
icle, is exhibited at the Umatilla House
today, several OF which we're caught il
the wheels this morning, A very prom
inent hump exists on the back, raising
J in steep pitch just back Of the head. 1
has no scales, and in color is blue blacl
s with markings OF olive brown, has Whit
belly and spots near the tail, while tn
finny part of the tail is speckled. 1t il
u not thought to be related to the salmon
$ family, as their are no features which
n resemble it. The mouth is sharp ant
vt wide, the back lacks one fin, and tn
meat is of pinkish white color. Thu
g specimen shown weights ten pounds
r breadth nine inches, and length twenty
r seven inches. The shape of the head il
it some respects resembles the skate. Tn
h jaws are armed with powerful teeth
It particularly the foremost ones, whicl
It indicates that this fish can successful
n prey upon others, perhaps the salmo
n themselves. 1t is salt water fish, bu

Is is able to state.
