Thompson, Jr., who has been pastor of the Presbyterian church in Lexington since 1920, has accepted a call to be pastor 01 a church in Knoxville, Tenn. Last week in the Beaufort harbor there were caught four tiger or man eating sharks, the first cn record as ever having been caught in that vicin ity. Colonel Jasper N. Craig, of Reids ville, died last week. For years he had been colonel of the third regiment of the North Carolina National Guard. Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Snipes and son recently arrived in Reidsville for a visit, having come all the way from their home in Vancouver, B. C, in an automobile. According to the determination of the Carolina Prisoners' Aid So;ie ty reached recently, indictments for assault and battery will be brought against any guard in the service of "Wake county who whips a prisoner. Dr. Frank Siler, missionary secre tary of the Western North Carolina Conference, will move his family to Greensboro at an early date and Mrs. Siler will become dean of the Greens boro College for Women. Reports from Warsaw say that fol lowing the dryest spring and early summer that that section has experi enced in fifty years, the rains have fallen during the past week threaten to do as much damage as the dry weather did if it continues. The Concord Merchants' Association is planning to have a home-coming week there in September. In the un dertaking the association has the co operation of the city officials and the citizens of the town and every effort will be made to make the occasion a success. Last week there came a telegram addressed to Governor Craig from Chicago appealing to him to join a world-wide movement to bring to a quick conclusion the terrible war "that threatens the devastation of Europe." The new building at Oak Ridge which is to take the place of the one burned last January will be completed and ready for occupancy at the usual time for the opening of the fall term. The building has cost approximately $30,000. Mrs. Elizabeth Hall, on trial at Louisa, Virginia, for killing her hus band, Victor K. Hall, a merchant, on April 15, was last week found guilty of murder in the second degree anil sentenced to ten years in the peniten tiary. Her husband was known in North Carolina. Final action was taken last week by the city council of High Point and a white way for the city is now assured. The main street is to be cleared of poles and the street put in condition for the iron poles and a beautiful ef fect. The material is to be ordered at once. The movement of cantaioupes to the Northern markets from Eastern North Carolina has practically stop ped after one of the most successful seasons that the growers have had in years. From around Wilmington 650 cars were shipped north besides the shipments by express. The total re ceipts from the crop were more than one hundred thousand dollars. About all the Frenchmen who were at Badin, Stanly county, working for the Southern Aluminum Company, have gone to France to fight for their country. There has been some appre hension that the company might have to close down, but the men in charge have announced that they have am ple fund3 for the work and that it will not be hampered by the war in Europe. The Hamburg - American Line steamer Nicaria put into Southport a few days ago because of the danger of capture by English or French war ves sels. The cargo was transferred to the Clyde Line to be carried to New York. One of the mail bags on board had been gnawed by rats and Dr. C. W. Stiles would not let it go forward at first for fear of infection from bu bonic plague. In Carroll county, Virginia, ieght miles from Mt. Airy, Cleve Belton, a well known white man residing Mt. Airy, shot and fatally wounded Charles Albright, a colored driver em ployed by a livery firm at the latter place because the driver refused to divulge the whereabouts of a well known Mt. Airy business man whose life Belton is alleged to have threaten ed. Vance Heavner is the name of the 12-year-old preacher prodigy of North Carolina. He is a native of Catawba county and comes of very humble parents. He began making Sunday School talks and writing re ligteus articles at the age of nine, and now at twelve seems almost as much at home in the pulpit as do the grown preachers. He preached to an audi ence of 1,800 at Shelby one night last week, and it is said his srmon, or lecture, was very good- Reports from the St. Helena colony in Pender county, says that the vine yards have made an unusually good yield this year, which proves that the oil of that section of North Carolina is adapted to the culture of grapes.

About the silliest charge yet fabri cated against President Wilson is meeting its proper answer. It is the charge that the President has violated the Constitution by persuading Con gress to give the reforms which the public is demanding. The answer comes from members of the Congress which.according to these insinuations, is being and has been "intimidated." You may remember that President Taft was so respectful of the Consti tution that he permitted Congress, then dominated by Aldrich and Can non, to ignore his own and his party's solemn pledges while writing the Payne-Aldrich tariff in 1009. You rm.y remember, also, the general opinion formed of Taft in consequence. Hence the following exirart3 from a EDcech of Reoresentative Perl P. Decker, of Missouri, a new Democrat ic Mtmber, have a peculiar and timely interest: 'Of course it was never intended by the Constitution that Congress should be browbeaten or intimidated by the President; but it was intended that he should exercise an inbuence over Congress by reason and by intellectu al persuasion. President Wilson has exercised this kind of influence. 'Did the President 'overbear' Con- cress in the writing of the tariff bill? True, he uttered a protest that started the movement that drove the Mulhall lobby from the corridors of Congress with the lash of public scorn. "True, also, that the great Ways and Moans Committee submitted the tariff bill to the President and he made suggestions as to certain items. That is in harmony with the princi ples of the Constitution, as 1 will point out to you. If the tariff bill, after it had been passed by Congress, had not ben satisfactory to the Presi dent of the United States it would would have been his duty to veto it. Anil then, dare you tell this House and the people of the country that he was 'overbearing Congress' because, before it was pased, he made his opinions known to the men who are responsible here for passing the tarm bill. "When the tariff bill had been passed many good men said let us adjourn and rest on our laurels. Congress hail a Constitutional right to adjourn, but the President has a Constitution al right to re-convene Congress. Was it an encroachment on legislative au thority for him to say, 'You have done well, but I recommend that before you adjourn you fulfill another prom ise and reform the banking and cur rency laws.' "Will the gentleman say that the President has overborne Congress be cause he has asked us to uphold his hands in the efforts which he and the great Secretary of State, Mr. Bryan, have been making, with now admitted hope of success, to save from exploit ation, anarchy and strife, the unhap py people of distracted Mexico; in the efforts to save them without losing the lives of thousands of American boys and millions of dollars raised by taxing the toiling millions of the land?" And, in connection with the trust bills, it is identically the same story. A thief entered the barn of Mr. W. H. Reece, about three miles from Greensboro Thursday night and got away with nearly everything there except the horse. Little Samuel Carroll, said to be one of the brightest boys at the Christian Orphanage at Elon College, was crushed to death beneath a heavy piece of shafting which had been un loaded, and piled against the building. The old Grandfather Hotel, which stood at the foot of Grandfather Mountain, was burned last week. For many years this was the only lodging place tor sightseers visiting that his toric section. The old building was out ol commission as a boarding house Several men, probably as many as ten or fifteen, -formed themselves into a mob last week and about twelve o ciock at night made an attack on Contractor lounts, of Hickory, who is building a new depot in North Wilkes- boro. It seems that the cause of the assault was that colored brick layers were employed instead of white men. The Southern Furniture Manufac turers' Association met in Hickory last week. One of the most impor tant matters taken up was that of sending a man to South America to investigate the demand for wooden furniture, with the view of building up a large trade in Latin America. It was decided to send a representa tive to do this. Some time ago W. L. Litaker, of Asheville, gave a photograph and tes timonial to an artificial limb company who had fitted him with a leg. This testimonial fell into the hands of an unknown cousin of Mr. Litaker, living in Alabama, who had also lost a limb. A correspondence was struck up and as a result the two cousins met cently at a family reunion in Rowan county. Mr. Baxter Shemwell, a Davidson county man, has succeeded in organiz ing a million dollar organization to manufacture an adding machine at tachment for typewrites. It is claim ed that the attachment will add, sub tract, carry totals forward, and in fact do everything and more than the tiuroughs will do, while a Iteter being written or an invoice made on the typewriter, using the figures the ordinary way. A bold robbery was committed in Greensboro Wednesday- night of last week when robbers entered the local office of the Standard Oil Company, ana blew open the sate, securing about sou in money, and checks to the amount of $67. Entrance was made by boring six holes in the door and knocking out the wood between the holes, thus forming an opening large enough to admit a hand. The lock was then turned and access was easy. GENERAL NEWS ITEMS ITEMS OF INTEREST TAKING PLACE THIS WEEK THROUGH OUT THE DIFFERENT SEC TIONS OF THE WORLD. An agreement has been reached be tween the United Mates government and the New Haven road for a peace ful dissolution of the system. Mr. and Mrs. Archer M. Huntington, Americans, who were held at Nuern berg, Germany, as spies, have been re leased. Nearly half a milion dollars is to be expended in the near future at Co lumbus, Ohio, for a home for aged school teachers, under the provisions of the will of Mrs. Virginia Gay. Secretary Bryan announces that En gland, Austria, and Russia have ac knowledged the the receipt of media tion proposals without any indication of acceptance. Eyes of politicians throughout the country were turned toward Ohio last week when voters there cast their bal lots in the first state-wide primary in the history of the state. Secretary Bryan's peace treaties with the Netherlands and Norway, have been ratified. They provide for commissions of inquiry before resort to arms in international disputes which ordinary resources of diploma cy fail to settle. The House and Senate conferences on the emergency shipping bill reach ed a complete egreement last Thurs day, recommending that foreign built vessels registered under the act, be permitted to engage in coast wise within two years within its passage. Switzerland, the country which gave origin to the Red Cross movement, is going to be a refuge for the wounded of the European war. The little coun try is neutral, and is to be made a hospital for the wounded of all arm ies. The necessity of a merchant marine just at this time is being impressed upon the minds of the leading men of the country and many take the posi tion that with a suflicient number of vessels, this country might in a few weeks come in for a big share of the world's trade. Brazil has demanded an explana tion from Germany on the report based on the declaration of the French consul at Stuttgart that Bernado de Campos had been assaulted and rob bed by German soldiers. The Brazil ian, who is blind, was formerly pres ident of the state of Sao Faulo. The Chesapeake & Ohio Railway Company are to build a bridge across the Ohio river, about eight miles above Portsmouth, Ohio. It will in volve about twenty thousand tons of steel and the estimated cost is two million dollars. Eureka, California, is soon to lose its distinction as being the largest city in the United States unconnected with the outside world by railroad. In septemDer the line by which the Northwestern Pacific will enter Eure ka will be completed. The Austro-Huncarian amhassailni- I Count A. Neusdorff-Pouilly Dietrich stein, who has been in England for 18 years, and who was one of the most intimate friends of the royal family, of England, left for Austria last week. War Drices" for fnnA in V, TTH..l States resulted last week in the intro duction into the House of Representa tives of four resolutions asking inves tigation. Why supplies, when Ameri can bumper crops are deprived of their foreign markets, should go up in the domestic markets, was asked. There is a renort-. that fh p.a England is going to trv tn ootokiiei. a branch in Canada. It is declared hv financial authorities that any effort to thus encroach upon this country's gold holdings, pending adjustment of the foreign situation, is likely to meet wim i-uiiipieie ianure. The American liner PhiiaoinV.-o with the first crowd of Americans who rusnea irom Europe after war was declared, arrived in Now v.i, Wednesday of last week. There were i uc pa&bengers in tne cabin and 309 in tne steerage. Virtually all were wunoui Daggage, many without mon ey, and all told of hardships. Edward P. Amory, patent attorney and secretary of the Western Railroad Asociation, was found in his nflW choked and beaten to death last week. He was killed after a desperate strug gle. His clothing was partly torn off, he had three cuts on his head, bruises on his throat and the whole office was spattered with blood. The murder is sun a mystery. The peaceful transfer of the Mpi City government from Carbajal to the constitutionalists, actually began last week, according to official advices. The federal troops evacuated the cfcy and the municipal police who are regarded as neutral were left in charge. The federals went to a nearby point await an amnesty announcement fr&ai carranza. Genera.1 Branwell Booth has offer ed a number of Salvation armv insti. tutions to the War Office in London for hospital and other services, in cluding naval and military shelters at Portsmouth, Harwich and other places. Many of the Salvation Army halls are already being used to house troops and the Salvationists are obliged to hold their meetings in tie streets instead of in the halls. In his testimony before the Senate banking committee last week, Paul M. Warburg, revealed the fact that as a member of the Federal Reserve Board he will dVest himself of all financial connections, even though not required by law to do bo. He said: VI think a man who is on the Federal Reserve Board ought to be like Cesar's wife, he ought to be above suspicion; he ought to be without any entangling alliances." OUR FARMERS' COLUMN ARTICLES ON AGRICULTURE THAT WILL BE OF INTEREST TO THE FARMERS OF OUR CIR CLE OF READERS. How to Plant Winter-Growing Crops Every farmer in the state should be interested in getting planted a large acreage of winter cover crops, such as rye, clovers, vetches, grasses, etc. These crops are needed to hold the soil together, to prevent washing and leaching, to furnish grazing and for age, to gather nitrogen from the air and to turn under to improve the soil Next in importance to good, sound seed, is a good seed-bed. The land should be broken not less than eight inches deep from two to six weeks before time to plant so that it will have time to settle. Shallow plowing does not let enough water into the soil. If breaking is done immediate ly before planting and no rain falls the soil should be rolled (when dry) to make it firm, but should be well disced, or harrowed to make the top loose and fine. The matter may be summed up by saying that a good seed bed requires deep breaking, set tling, thorough harrowing and mois ture. The farmer who neglects these things will generally fail to procure a stand. By all means watch soil con ditions and, if possible, plant when there is moisture. Many fields will need lime, espec- cially if any legume is to be planted there. Determine this in time and ap ply lime before planting, if it is need ed. All legumes will need inoculation to furnish beneficial bacteria, unless the soil already contains the germs. Inoculation may be had by spreading oil from fields where the special crop has grown and been found to con tain the germs. The State Depart ment of Agriculture, Raleigh, is now prepared to furnish inoculating mate rial at fifty cents per acre. The U. S. Department of Agriculture, Washing ton, D. C, will furnish it free. It can be had from there through the demon- tration agents. In getting it from either department, the order should be sent in three or four weeks before time to use the material The best time to plant winter grass es and clover in this state varies very much on account of our varying alti tude. In a general way the best l!0 days for planting are about as fol lows: In the mountains, from Au gust 15 to September 15; in the cen tral part of the state, from August 25 to September 25; in the coastal plains, from September 15 to Octo ber 15. Remember that these crops should be planted early enough to get a good hold in the soil by winter, and yet late enough so that they will not be killed by the hot sun of late sum mer. This requires good judgment and knowledge on the part of the far mer. To Succed With Alfalfa. It is pretty well demonstrated that alfalfa will grow and afford a large yield of good forage wherever the following conditions exist: 1. A well drained soil, with water not standing closer than four or five feet of the surface and preferably at a much lower depth. i. A soil naturally containing one per cent or more of calsium carbon ate, or on which three to four tons of ground limestone i3 applied every four or five years. 3. A soil naturally rich or one of fair natural fertility made rich by the use ot fertilizers. 4. Ad soil sufficiently inoculate with the germs, which live on the roots of the alfalfa plants and help them to get nitrogen from the air. Without these conditions alfalfa will be a failure, with them it will probably be a success. Ninety-five Bushels Oats Per Acre, I recently harvested seven acres of oats making a yield of 665 bushels, or 95 bushels to the acre. The oats were sown the 29th and 30th of October, after a crop of corn that was estimat ed to have yielded 50 bushels to the acre. The land was well disced with a cutaway harrow and seed were sown with a two-horse dril, using about two hundred pounds of 8-2-2 guano at seeding time. In early serine broadcasted the poor spots with barn yard manure, so as to even up the oats as near as possible. My land is white clay land with rea ciay sudsoii, and nve vears ago would not have grown 25 bushels of oats to the acre. Previous to this year I have gathered a crop of crim son clover and followed with corn. I attribute the oat yield this vear to the good that the clover has done the land before this. I know it is pos sible, with favorable weather condi tions, to raise 125 to 130 bushels to the acre. B. C. Redfern, in the Prog ressive rarmer. Keeping Farms Clean. Many a farmer is resting now when he ought not to be. He has just laid by his crops and has got all of his hay up, and is taking life easy. That's all right, but if he will but think he can do valuable work on his farm and that is to clean out his fence corners and put in new posts where the old ones are rotten. Many farmers leave the briers and weeds that they cut down in their fence corners lying right where they cut them, and they ought not to do that. I pull them out on the field about ten feet and let them rot on the ground. You get the benefit of them there and they make the soil bet ter, and you always notice that your best wheat is around the fence. Many farmers don't cut the wheat up next to the fence at all. and manv run over it the first time when going arouna tne neia the first time, but the best way is to cut next to the fence first and you get the good wheat then. Then have a fjow come along with a pitchfork , anT straighten up the wheat where the bull wheel has run over it It adds more profit. It makes your farm look better when you clean out your fence corners. If you wanted to sell your farm , the man buying would give more for it man ne would it the fences were hid den by briers and bushes and just piece of a fence there. Have the hedge rows or fences trLnmed up well with all the brush COL. FAIRBROTHER DISCUSSES COMING CONVENTION. SAYS TATTERED REMNANT HAS BEEN CALLED TO MEET IN RALEIGH CALL TO THE DEAD Despite the fact that the Republi can party ceased to De a state pany after the last general election, John M. Morehead, a3 chairman, and Gil Ham GrisBom. as secretary, have is sued a "call" for a state Republican convention to be held at Raleigh, Au gust 20. According to the laws or North Carolina, a party, to remain a state party, must poll a mtnimwn of 50.000 votes at the Presidential election. Neither the Republican nor the bull moose parties polled the req uisite number of votes at tne last elec tion, and as a result, the Democratic party is the only recognized party in the state. In view of the non-existence of the Republican party in the state, the call issued by Messrs. Morehead and Gris som has called forth varied comments by the pres3 of the state. Among the sarcastic remarks, those of Col. Al Fairbrother, in "Everything," stand out conspicuously. Col. Fairbrother writes thusly: A little late to call the remnant to gethera little late in the day, the year, the age, to attempt to rally and a rattling of dry bones but John M. Morehead, as chairman, and Gilliam Grisom, as secretary, have called to meet, in North Carolina, a state Re publican convention, at Raleigh, on Thursday, August 20. At this time and place, it is grave ly stated, state officers will be nomi nated, and such other busines as may Dronerly come before the convention, will be conducted. In the old days such a call would be a commonplace agair; a matter of course an expectancy dui mis is the first time, in our recollection, that a sexton has gone to a grave yard and attempted to rally the dead from under their tombstones. It is as though a dairy maid were to go to the slaughter house and ex nect to milk the cows that had been turned into beef the year before; as though the fond lover sat in his lonely room and looked back at the faded ribbon and the lock of hair cut from the forehad of a girl long years in glory, and expect to see her material ize and tell him again that she loved him. It is as though a weeping mother would go to the urn and take the ashes of her first-born and talk o them and coo with them and dream that the living flesh were present. The Republican party in North Car olinathe followers of the (we quote) "Party of Lincoln, and Grant, of Gar field, and McKinley, of Roosevelt and Taft." and here is Teddy telling them that he would see the Republi can party further in the Bad Land than you could throw a bull moose by the tail before he woum give it rec ognition. The followers of the party of Lin coln and Grant where are they and who are they? Count on vour fingers the leaders of that grand old party in North Car olina, and then don t De too certain that they are still loyal. John Morehead and Gilliam Grissom are about all that is left of the old guard of the old guard that walked to the money music Mark Hanna made; of the old guard that talked of full dinner pails and tariff for revenue and then some. The party of Grant and where in the wind swept world is it? Gone glimmering, and never again is there magic in the names. The Datriotic call tells the esrt- while Republicans, now regarded as renegades and traitors to their party, that they can come back; that the fat ted calf will be killed and the footsore prods who wandered after the mouth ings of Teddy and who didn't like Taft because he told them there was not one in the bunch in North Caro lina who should be trusted with an office and who proved that he thought so by appointing Democrats to life tenure jobs, can all come into camp fall upon the necks of the few remain ing true ones and be forgiven. But will they come? Nay, nay, Pearhne Renunciation is theirs the die has long ben cast, and the Republican par ty is not. The patriotic call explains that evil davs are ours brought by Democrat ic misrule and before COionei jonn Motlev Morehead gets through with it he will prove to the satisfaction of Gilliam Grissom that it was Bryan, the modern king of peace,who brought on the present European war; that it was Wilson who caused tiuerta to us urp the throne that it was, in short, the present Democratic administra tion that caused pellagra and spread the great white plague throughout the world. But there will be no loud huzzahs in Raleigh. There will be no plumes and drums and laughing men and shouting office-holders. The conven tion will be solemn, and gloom will fill the city. And Colonel John will look down on the tattered remnant of the once grand and invincible hosts and repeat with tears in his eyes: "Of all sad words of tongue or pen? The saddest are these: It might have been." It seems that the warring powers of Europe are not overanxious for assist ance from their reservists in this country. The German consulate in this country is sending over only those who are able to pay their own way to Germany. The sailing of the French liner itocnambeau has been postpon ed indefinitely, and the French con- sulate has given out notice that here after reservists who are anxious to join their colors should make applica tion jy mail. burned.

A, Bryant , in Southern nuraust NORTH CAROLINA MANUFAr' TURER IS OPTIMISTIC FINau CIAL ATMOSPHERE BUOYA A Washington newspaper corre. pondent to one of the North Carolina dailies last week had an interview with Hon. A. W. McLean, of Lumber, ton, a prominent cotton grower rA manufacturer, who was on his waj home from New York City, where ha had spent several days conferring with big Wall Street bankers, export- ers and prominent manufacturers of the North. He. was very optimistic I regarding general business conditions, I While admitting that he was rath downcast at the prospects of market- i ing crops this fall before he went to ' New York, he stated that the conver- ' sations he had had with the big finan ciers in Wall Street opened his eyes and that he now sees nothing but ex tremely good times for the American farmers, manufacturers and bankers. Following is a quotation from Mr. McLean's statement: "I was surprised to find the finan- 1 cial atmosphere in New York ex tremely buoyant. In former periods of threatened financial distress Wall Street has been panic stricken. But not so now. With the new currency measure on the eve of going into ef fect big bankers realize that a finan cial panic is impossible and have the utmost confidence. The passage of the emergency currency legislation to tide us over until the federal reserve board can be organized has put fi nances on a firm basis. "From what I learned in New York and from Senators and high officials here today, I have no doubt that meas ures will be taken to quickly market all our crops and produce abroad with little difficulty and at higher prices than we have heretofore re ceived. The opinion is almost unan imous in well informed circles that the British and French fleets will clear the seas of German battleships and make the way clear for us to market our products in great volume to our biggest foreign purchasers. "I have an appointment to meet Secretaries McA doo and Houston to morrow morning to advise with them regarding securing ample money to move North Carolina crops and for marketing them abroad." DOESN'T LOOK LIKE SION DEPRES- A Big Automobile Manufacturer Points Out Strong Business Facts. London, Aug. 18. Instead of "psy chological," John R. Willys,, presi dent of the Willys-Overland Automo bile Company, believes that the "pres ent business depression is purely sen timental. Ihis was his characteri zation today of the business outlook in America. He gave it just before leaving for Carlsbad. "In the next twelve months, said Willys, "we expect to turn out 75,000 automobiles. Last year we manufac tured 45,000 and sold them all. It is strange that all this sentimental talk about business depression increases , so the demand for good automobiles, isn't it? Business is good for those who have good stuff. The best shops and high-class materials are continuing to win all along the line. We expect to ship 7,500 automobiles to Europe next year. The majority of the 75,000 cars we will turn out will be $1,475 cars. We will sell them all." COOKING RECIPES Following are a few cooking reci pes that have been tested and are known to be good. We recommend them to all our readers who are house keepers: Sandwich Biscuits Roll some biscuit dough thin like pie crust and cut with a small biscuit cutter. Spread one-half of it with a mixture of finely chopped ham seas oned to taste with salt, pepper and a nttie mustard. cover with the re maining half of biscuits and bake in a hot oven. Pocketbook Rolls Roll biscuit dough very thin and cut with ordinary biscuit cutter. Fold each one into triagular shape, brush with milk and bake. After removing from oven open and cover bottom of roll with grated cheese, marmalade or jelly. Tomato Catsnp To make tomato catsup, take one peck of ripe tomatoes and cook with out water until they are tender. Pour througn a sieve, return to the hre and boil until thick. They must be con stantly stirred to prevent burning. Now add a pound of sugar and a pint of vinegar, a half a cupful of salt and two teaspoonfuls of pepner. Boil again until thick; pour into bottles and seal or cork tigntly. To seal bot tles, drive the corks in even with the neck of the bottle, wipe off and pour melted sealing wax over the top of cork and bottle. Cheese and Tomato Patties Moisten a pint of stale bread crumbs with a cupful of stewed toma toes, add two eggs, one large cupful of grated chees, a medium sized onion finely minced, and a piece of butter the size of a walnut. Season with salt and Pepper. Knead thoroughly. If too hot to mold, add some fae cracker crumbs until of the right consistency. Mould into small patties. Dip in beat en egg and then in crumbs and fry in hot butter until brown. Serve hot Stuffed Peaches. Wash the peaches which have been made clear seeM, then remove the seed by cutting a slit in the side. Now put them into a scalding hot brine, not too strong, and let stand until cool. Make a mixture of different kinds of spices and horse radishnustard seed, and ginger root Tie all together in a muslin bag and dip several minutes in scalding water. This wjll make .. the spices less strong. Fill the seed cavi ties with this mixture and place the peaches, tied around with thread, into The British steamboat Lore sailed from Savannah last week for Liver pool loaded with sotton and naval stores.
