TILE sessions of the County Asiociatioti
are not always held: where the teachers
and\ieonle may desire, because co invita_
tion is received from the desirable pla!Ces.
We suggest th 4 some person,. 'knowing
the wishes of the people in any lees*,
to have the September association held
there; to scud an invitation to the Presi
dent of the Association, Professor E. E.
Quinlam Towanda, and he will extend it
to the Association at its session at Colum
bia L Ituadr, Juno lath and 14th.
AT the Teachers' Institute last August
the teachers. very unanimously voted to
hold ,the next session kr the same length
of time, and at the Eamo time and place.
About 300 teachers were preaeat—tke
largest number ever assembled in the
aounty—and from all we hearth', attend
auce will"be much greater at the next ses
sion, August 11th to l2'2d. Let all teach
ers make arrangements to he present ; fur
thil session will be as practiCal and effi
cient as the het one, and more systonatie
and thorough. The same subjects will
be carefully ptesented at the Institute
that the Suparintendeut will thoroughly
examine on at the examinations.
TIIF. winter scbools‘of Ida Reynolds,
Ada Chamberlain, Kate Coney, Miss Der-
Wet` Seeley, not reported whtli visited,
were en.cellent. • Good teaching by -P.
Brennan, and by Eliza Depew, was also
noticed. Quite a' number of manner
schools have been visited, but cannoe be .
mentioned without omitting important
educational items.

1 1 2:Aiwono FU'Di TMt of May 15, 1.5,.79 :
If A eau cut a cord of weoil in four
fifths of a day, and 13 can cut a cord . of
wood in three-fourths of a day, how 1014
will it take them Will to cut a cord work
ing tntgklicr?
Solution—A cuts a cord infour-fifths of
a day, he will cut in one day five-fourths
of a cord, and since Il cuts a cord in three
fourths of a day, he will cut four-thirds
of a curd io one day. Both working to
gt•ther will cut in one day five-fourths
plus fourithirds of a cords equals 7 114:20
And to cut one cord will require 12-31 of

What I Knirw about Prepaping Fish for
the Table. -
For the ltzt4tfitTEtt.
.
- .ln
. the first place sonic. fish are bet
ter fried' than , they are boiled, and
some are :better boiled than they are
fried, and , those that - are good for
frying
_are some -Of _thenr good . also
for baking. I will mention some of
them that I prefer foe frying; the
trout, the white chub, the pike, the
shad, white - fish, the mackerel, the
herring and many others of the soft
er kind. -
Those for boiling' are of a harder
texture, such as the Susquehanna or
wall-eyed. liass, the perch, the sunfish;
the eel, the codfish, the haddock, the
catfish .aud Others of like texture.
.Now for, the manner of preparing
them : after they have been well' scale
ed or skinned, as the case may require;
they should '• be wiped clean and . not
spoiled by Soaking too.much in Water
- -
afte r. cleaning them.
- .There is nothing
. better for frying
fish in thaii 'the drippings of. hiun or
flitch. • . •
The process of boiling is more in:
trieate ; .bass, if large, should be cut
crosswise in, pieces -suitable .to serve
on the plate,. and, "All the -seasoning'
should be put in at the time-they are
put over the..,fire - to boil, with only
water enough to make a sufficient
quantity of gravy for the dressing
after the, fish is boiled. It had better,
be a little scant than to be too co
pious, for then it can be easily,reme,
died by the addition of a little water
from the tea-kettle: Be careful in
Salting, for most fish 'need a large
quantity Of butter which is an addi
tion to the salting. , The otherseason,
ilia should' berpper, a sraall, bit of
onion ehoppetfine with celery and
parsley if. at hand s if not, it will be
good if . Only - seasbned with 'pepper
and salt and 'plenty
.of butter. The
boiling tshotild be watched- so as to
boil done and . not boil to pieces,- and
when done should be carefully taken
out of the kettle . or whatever boiled
in, With a skimmer, and put in a tnr
reel' or det:p dish, then a little - flour
stirred in. water should be .added to
the gravy until it becomes of a nice,
creamy -consistency,- not too .thick,
nor to thin, this poured over the fish
makes it ready for the table. And it
may, in the old ,homely phrase, be lit
- . to bAore a king.
I bare oftimes in the lifetime, of
my departed . Wife; had the pleasure of
sadly* such a dish before visitingfriends,
friend's, and never heard One Jiihl
fault.witii,the: fare, but have often
heard them say your fish was so good
that I haveeaten too much for . my
comfort.
JAMES ELLIOTT,
(in the 91st year of his age.)
Sub Eoiling and Deep Ploughing
