Money Hidden by a Miser.

More money has been found on the
George Carncros9 farm about five
miles west of the village of Earlville,
Chenango county NJ. Foster, who
now owns the place, while remodel
ing the stables in the barn several
days ago, found secreted in the base
of one of the stanchions a tin can
containing over $50 in silver coins.
The dates on the coins were in the
'70's, showing that in all probability
they had been hidden for more than
80 years. 1t was some 10 or 12
years ago that George Carncross, an
old miser, was found dead in the
house on his farm. After his death a
fortune was found hidden in out of
the way places about the house and
barn. Some $1,700 was found hid
den in an old rubber boot which was
hanging from rafter in the attic,
and in tin cans and old receptacles
about the cupboard. In all SIT, 900
was found, which was adjusted in
County Court and the money turned
over to Carncross' sister, whose home
is in Wampsville.

A LAW BENEFITTING FARMERS.

On January 1st another of the
progressive laws enacted for the di
rect benefit of the farmers of Penn
sylvania will go into effect. This is
the pure seed law" of the last Leg
ishture which went upon the statute
books only after a laborious and
somewhat protracted campaign
which did not cover merely the legis-
lative session. 1t should be of as
great benefit, in its way, as each
of the mass of laws establishing
standards of purity for one thing
and another which have been enact
ed in recent years.
N The aw is aimed directly at the

rass and clover and the like with
Aeds of weeds which are useless and

Xcusable, for it is practiced solely

this sort is commonly confined to

HOW TO MAKE FARMING PAY.

The possibilities of profitable farm
ing have again been shown by the
Long Island caulifiower growers, who
will realize some 100000 on this
years crop.
This result has been made possi-
BILE not by improvements in growing
the vegetables merely, but by fine
and carefully managed system of
marketing. The association has sent
974 refrigerator cars out of River
head, and will send fifty more before
the season closes, in addition to big
shipments to New York and Brook
lyn in ordinary cars. The crop has
thus been distributed among four
teen outside cities, thus preventing
a glut in any one market and main
tanning high level of prices.
That is the sort of work which
ought to be done for farmers all over
the country by commercial agencies,
But so far as the middlemen have
done it heretofore they have been
looking out for their own pockets
chiefly and the farmers had to take
what was left, a process which has
discouraged raising vegetables fol

NATIONAL
BISCUIT
OMPANY
A GIFT OF LOVE.

At this joyful Yuletide season, every
heart is full of cheer,
Peace and good will toward all man
kind
'Tis the best time of all the year,
The children's eyes are sparkling
Their cheeks are all aglow,
They are expecting dear old Santa,
With a lot of gifts you know.
Why is the world so full of gladness?
Can anybody tell?
Tell again the sweet old story, while
our hearts with rapture swell.
How our Father up in glory, His love
for us will never cease
Sena a Saviour down from heaven,
Sent His Son the Prince of Peace.
How in the little town of Bethlehem,
the lowly Christ, our Lord, was
born,
A wondrous gift to the world was
given, on that first Christmas
The kings Of earth gave Him no well
come,
In no royal cradle did He lay,
But instead humble stable
In mauger filled with hay.
To the faithful shepherds watching,
glad tidings came that night,
When over the plain and hillside,
they saw marvellous light.
A voice was then heard speaking in
accents sweet and clear,
Telling of Gods great goodness,
And bidding them not to fear.
Long had they waited for the Mes
siah; think how glad they must
have been,
When they heard the Angels singing
Peace on earth good will toward
men!
For the whole host of heaven came
to tell the story
Melodious anthems filled the air.
to God gave they the glory.
fastened were the shepherds foot
steps to where the stars bright
ray,
Seemed to beckon to them and clear
ly show the way.
Still from heaven light is shining,
Gods word that all might see.
AS they sought and found Jesus,
even so may we.
Christ's love so great and tender,
still sheds it's guiding rays,
Let us like the lowly shepherds offer
up our ardent praise.

SAyORY COOKING.

"I will say that on my recent visit
| found the cooking in the hotels and
restaurants throughout Scandinavia
to be excellent" said Luis Jackson
of the Erie railroad. "In the hotels
of the large and small cities of Scan
dinavia considerable attention is paid
to the preparation of food, though
the table hote is generally restrict
ed to few things. 1t is well known
that the cooking in the great Ameri-
can hotels is as good as anywhere in
the world, but it is an admitted fact,
that the cooking in the hotels of our
small towns, such as Canaryville,
Podunk, and Rabbit Center, is poor
and unsavory. The trouble being
that in making up their bills of fare
they endeavor to initiate in length
those of the hotels in large cities,
with the result that good cooking is
sacrificed to an indifferently cooked
variety.
preliminary to the dinner in
Scandinavia, especially in Norway
and Sweden, one partakes of the ap-
petizers (hors-d 'oeuvre) on the
smorgasbord. These consist of "a
variety of dishes,-ham, smoked
sausages, smoked salmon, sardines,
sardells, variety of cheeses, rad
ishes, cucumber salad and pickles,
with bread and butter. After this a
dinner of regular courses is served.
A great Scandinavian institution is
! the sandwich, sold at restaurants,
railway stations, etc. This consists
of one slice of bread with meat or
cheese on it. They do not put slice
of bread on top as we do. The Dread
is the smallest part of it. The smok-
ed. sausage, in every variety, or ham,
overlaps the bread. These sand
wiches cost from four cents up N
our money. They are small and one
can eat several of them, but they
will, I think, take first prize in COM
petition with any sandwiches from
other parts. At the railway stations
and in the restaurants of small pleas
ure steamers, one of the most popu-
lar dishes is beefsteak and onions.
The beefsteak, however, is not to be
compared with our steak. 1t is fried
instead of broiled, and is merely a
thin slice of beef, but it is covered
with a thick layer of well fried
onions. AS l said, everything is saw
orily cooked.
