the following teachers were elected
for the ensuing year: Principal,
M. 7. Connolly; list Assistant,
Miss Ada Jones; I'd Assistant,

ing. Beatrice NJ. Russell was
chosen as teacher of the colored
school. The new principal, M. T.

After celebrating for almost As

in the case of James Oliver, charg-
ed with fraudulent voting, last
Wednesday afternoon reported to
Judge Williams that they we're un-
able to agree and were discharged.
It is said that the jury stood seven
for acquital and five for conviction.

another trial, but the defense ask

to, and then the attorneys for the
defendant filed an application for
change of venue, with afidavits
from Rev. Fuller Swift, of Ironton,
and j. N. Stewart, of the west end
Of the county, alleging that the de.
PENDANT could not secure a fair and
impartial trial in Iron county. AS
the hearing of this application
would require the attendance OF
witnesses from all parts of the
county and involve further ex-
pense and delay, Prosecuting At
torney Damron concluded to agree
to a continuance, if the defendant
would withdraw the application
for a change of venue. To this the
defense readily agreed; and the
case was continued until the next
regular term-rather conclusive

other business court adjourned,

Is nothing like nitrate of soda. 1t
makes them grow larger and gives
them richer colors.
Nitrate will put new life into pot
plants, even if they are pot-bound, by
causing new roots to spring and older
ones to be gradually cast off. In the
same way, If growth has been allowed
to stop, it will cause the appearance of
new vigorous shoots when the older
ones should be pruned out to make
room for the new.
Even the staid old cactus will re-
spond generously to the life-giving
touch of this wizard of the soil.
A convenient way of applying nitrate
of soda on flowers is to dissolve one
ounce in ten pints of water and use
this for the occasional watering of the
plants.

1t is hardly ever out of order to sow
lettuce and radish; the lettuce enjoys
cool, moist weather best, but where
you have irrigation it is contented to
try to keep up with the demand of the
season. Hanson, California Butter and
Deakon are general favorites, and as
for radishes, get both the small quick
growing and the long Chinese white.
When the latter get too large for
radishes they will pose as a very good
variety of summer turnip.-Farm

VALUE OF RHuBARB

This product Of the garden has many
uses, not only for the table but for me-
dicinal purposes. The part used the
most is the foot stalk of the leaves. The
roots take up many acids and are as
tringent, hence the value of the dried
roots as a medicine. Rhubarb is a pow
erfui zest giver. When merely placed
in the mouth and left unmasticated
there is a rush of the saliva from the
glands to deal with the quantity OF ACID
in the mouth. This is excellent in cases
where the digestive fluids need stimu-
lation. Any food taken will be abb
sorbed through the pouring out of di-
gestive fluids. Though a vegetable,
rhubarb is used in every respect as a
fruit. Eaten stewcd, so that the acids
are tart in it, the stalk acts as foe
to gout and to rheumatism, for 1t neu-
traiizes the uric acid that causes these
things. 1t is also a specific for the
complexion. There are many ways OF
preparing it for the table, and the fol-
lowing recipes which submit ought TO
be pleasing to the palates of young and
old alike.

cover with a plate and press down with
weight for a few hours, when the
juice of the rhubarb will be absorbed
by the cake. Turn out very carefully,
decorate with little pieces of angelica
and serve with a nice custard.
Rhubarb Jelly

damp cloth and cut into short lengths.

blespoonfuls of sugar, and the thinly
pared rind of half lemon. Rub
Stew until tender with six heaping ta-

Rhubarb Blanc Mango

Cut two pounds of rhubarb into
pieces and boil with half a cupful of
water and sugar to sweeten till ten
der. Dissolve six tablespoonfuls of
cornstarch with two tablespoonfuls of
cold water, then stir it into the cooked
mixture, boil till thick. stirring care
fully all the time. Take a mold, well
rinsed out with cold water. and put
the mixture in. When cold and set
turn out onto a dish. dredge sugar over
the blanc mango and serve with whip
ped and favored cream. Rhubarb is
the most useful of all garden produc-
tions that are put into pies and pud-
dings. When quite young the stalks
are much better not peeled.
