FOOD PRESERVATION.
CT eat Strides From SUN Dried Fruits
to Alright Cases.

In early times the only methods OF saw
ing perishable pabulum for any consider
able length of time was by drying it III
the sun or at n fire, or by smoking or
sailing it. The Indians "jerked" their
venison. They dried the flesh OF buifa-
loes, reduced it to powder, mixed it with
meal and then baked it for keeping. The
peruvans gave us the word "jerked" lin
this mcanng) from their word "charqui.'
which signifies prepared dried meat, The
buccaneers derived their name from a
peculiar method Of curing beef, which
was termed "buchanning" There was u
regular trade between the native coast
tribes of America and those of the intc-
rior in desiccatcd oysters clans and 9TH
or shclliish. Savages and barbarans of
all countries have had similar customs.
and some still maintain them. The gen
eral fashion in our rural regions of dry
ing apples, peaches and other fruits is ia
miiiar, ns well as the smoking Of bacon
and hams, the picking of meats and the
sailing aud smoking of fish. \ method Of
preserving vegetables that has long been
extensively used in America is by boiling
them for a proper time and Transferring
them to cans or bottles and sealing inn
mediately.
But the method OF sealing cooked pro-
visions in alright metallic cases. which
is now so largely in vogue, is OF compara-
lively recent invention. In $50 Angus
tus de Hcine took out patent in Great
Britain for preserving food in tin and
other metal cases by simply eXhausting
the air by means of an air pump, but 1t
was unsuccessful 1t was followed by a
number of other efforts by various per
sons, all of which were more or less fail
urcs. until Werthcnuer's patents, which
were three in number from 1889 to ISL.
by his plan the provisions of whatever
kind are put into metal cases and closely
packed and the intersticcs filed in with
water or other appropriate liquid, such
as gravy in the case of flesh food, The
lids are then sodored on very securely.
Two small perforations are made in each
lid and the cases set in water bath in
which muriate Of lime is dissolved. Then
heat is applied until the whole boila and
the air is expelled through the snail

TRADING SHIPS CARRY NO CASH.
No Wonder the Pirncy Business Has
EnIIen Away to Nothing.

a son Of the old time yachting captain,
Jack White of Red Bank, picked up n
Mexican silver dollar Of 1894 on Sandy
Hook tho other day. Captain Jack said
it reminded him Of many a dollar he had
seen that had been picked up along the
Jersey coast and on Long Island shores.
Mexican silver dollars" he said
were the money of the commercial
world during all the early part OF this
century, and you could find them when
ever there were wrecks. Nowadays pi-
rating would not pay, but in those days
every ship had to carry a lot of money
every time she went on voyage. Now
adays 4 captain doesn't have to have
anything but bit OF pocket money, and
it is fact that many a ship goes out on
voyage with hardly a dollar on board
If the captain needs anything, he can
draw money at any port he enters or else
find credit there.
at was very different generation ago.
In those days captain had TO take ont
with him money enough 10 last him for
the whole voyage and something for
emergencies besides. lie often had big
sums aboard also that were used in trad.
ing or that represented n cargo sold.
1T was not uncommon in those days
for ship to start out with a full cargo
bound for some foreign port where the
captain would have to hunt his own mar
kct. If the cargo wouldn't sell well
there, lie had power to go to any other
port to hunt n profitable market Then
when he had sold out he was expected to
buy new cargo either for a home port OF
perhaps some other part of the world. II
was not unusual for II captain to handle
half dozen cargocs on long trading
voyage and come home in ballast, with a
big box Of silver dollars to help keep his
ship up to the wind. Even the little vcs-
sells carried a lot Of nor aboard.
II guess that dollar was wrecked there
80 years or so ago, and ii has been drift
ing around in the sands ever since."-

pressed by Gov. Lind II his speech at
Evansville on Monday evening, Oct. Is.
His hearers were stricken dumb with
Amusement. What. Old Glory. whose
broad stripes and bright stars stand
for freedom and equal rights where r
they flutter In the breeze, q mere rag?
Could such words be the sentiments of
the chief executive of this great state.
a state whose loyalty has always been
first to respond in defense of the ma
tion's honor? There was no applause.
Mr.. Lind was closing a lengthy ad-
dress, and, in speaking Of the Philip
pines, he positively said that II he had
the power he would haul down the
American flag there at once, and
wound UP with the expression of his
sentiments as above. He did it delib-
erately. It was not mere slip Of the
tongue, for in his speech at Water
willie. in lie Sueur county, on the Fri
day evening previous he uttered almost

in part: @'@"% ~
when he. began hiss tirade about
pulling down the flag the audience rap
idly began to dispense, and TO-, avoid
the ominous appearance or empty
chairs the speech was brought to an
abrupt close" ~
And, again, at Wadena. on Saturday
evening, Oct. 20, this Organized gov
ernor; after declaring that the war in
the Philippines was the cause Of the
high price of Irvine fiber last winter,
said:
"You know that war always creates
a demand for rope, and my only regret
is that more rope was not used and
every one connected with the war
hanged" " =,
Here, as in the previous instance, his
hearers were not only disguised, but
indignant at the disloyal sentiments.
These statements are all verified and
their truth can be asceftained from
every person who attended the meet
ings.
Every patriotic citizen will resent
these ignoble sentiments and will take
Mr.. Lind to task for uttering them.
