SOUTH AMBOY,S SCHOOLS.

In considering the matter OF q

the fact that even II a large bond

THE CHEsTNuT RLIGHT.

New Jersey, along with other
states In this section of the country,
has Joined in the war now being
Saged against the so-called chestnut
tree blight. For several years 10
mysterious disease has been att
tacking the trees of this variety,
causing great havoc wherever it has
gained a footho1d.
The blight seems to have started
on Long Island and from there it
lrst spread rapidly throughout New
York state and New Jersey and is
making rapid advance across Penn
~sylvania and southwark into vir-
ginia and West Virginia. Thus far
the expert foresters have been I'M
able to find a remedy for the disease
and it continues its way unchecked.
1t is estimated that the loss In New
Jersey alone, thus far, amounts to
more than s4.oo0,0oo. Whole for
ests of chestnut trees have been
destroyed and 1t looks as II. within
a few years. there will not be a tree
OF that kind left standing in the
state.
The disease is a mysterious one,
taking hold on the bark and eating
inward in 3 peculiar tanner. 1t
has an unusual way of spreading,
sometimes Jumping for many miles
from an Infected district and attack
ing q single tree. II that tree Is not
cut down at once the disease rapidly
spreads to others all around II, and
another center II thus formed for
aafrSfIlnnaEs 4 Night elsewhere It +
believed that the birds and squirreas
aid greatly in spreading the plague.
Whatever the disease may be, the
legislature Is fully justified in taking
Immediate steps for An investigation
and scientific study of the problem
Il IN aro-t to check .
To the ordinary citizen the loss Of
chestnut trees is not felt directly
but when 1t is realized that this kind
Of timber represents millions Of
dollars Of wealth to the state the
necessity for doing something te

p sAa COOKERY.

One must to keep up with the times,
have some experience In cooking In
paper bags. 1t is quick, satisfactory
and economical and the ideal way Of
cooking meats, as the flavor Is all In
the meat. not passed of in the oven
or air. 1t prevents waste, as the meat
weighs as much when 1t is taken from
the oven as 1t did when put in.
One of the beauties Of this system
Is that the food cannot be looked at,
and the only care is to keep the oven
at a good temperature for the dish
baking. Care should be taken in
opening the oven II q gas flame is
used, for a sudden draught from a win
dow or door may ignite the bag.
When such accident occurs, turn on
the gas, remove the bag and place 1t
inside OF another. II left a few min
utes to make up the loss of time, ev-
erything will be right.
There are any number OF points In
favor OF paper bag cookery; no dishes
to wash after roasting a fowl or cook
ing a stew, a perfectly clean. sanitary
bag, free from microbes, to use no
odor from the cooking and no oven
to watch.
Paper bags made for the purpose
are on the market; the ordinary bag
is not satisfactory ~ 1t Is not strong
enough and 1t leaves an undesirable
flavor In the substance cooked In 1t.
These bags may be purchased OF
any merchant, or he will be glad to
keep them as they r becoming more
and more popular as they are known,
Directions for using come in each
package. Care should be taken IN
placing meat with sharp skewers or
bones that will pierce the bag.
The bag should not be moved when
put into the oven, as the heat makes
1t very tender. When ready to take
out. place a pan under 1t and draw out
gently on to It or the platter on which
1t Is to be served. Open the bag and
remove the contents. One mistake
which is made by many is that of put
ting the filled bag into = pan. It
should be placed directly on the Iron
rack, 30 that the heat has free access
to every part of 1t. II the bag bursts.
slide It into another. keeping a pan
on the bottom OF the oven to catch al
the gravy that escapes

suULLY FOR WILSON.

No longer il there. any doubt as to
the stand Congressman Scully will
take In regard to the nomination for
president at the Baltimore conyen-
fion. In conversation with the Hpe-
cial correspondent Of the NEWS at
Washington, he has made 1t plain
that he favors tke nomination of
Governor Wilson and will do what
he can to have Wilson delegates
sent from the third district of New
Jersey to the convention.
While the congressman does not
present himself as a candidate for
delegate to the convention, 1t is
plain to all that he is the logical man
TO represent the district. He Ia will
ing to go pledged to the nomination
OF Wilson and as such his name
should be placed On the primary bal
lot In May. MIR. scully's popularity
throughout the district was plainly
manifested when he was elected to
congress and there is every reason to
believe that he would be as popular
with his party as a candidate for
deIagafe to the national convention
as he was as q candidate Tor con
sreaa.
1t is right that Middiesex eounts
should have one of the delegates &c
the national convention. and Con
gresham seully is the man. Part,
workers win readily rally around
his name and he would add muck
strength to the Wilson ticket.
II may be surprising to some that
Congressman scuily has taken this
stand IN regard to the nomination
owing to the fact that he was large
