"By an experiment on Tuesday exhibited to the Agricultural Society at
Hatting House Bath it was proved that Potatoes sliced in their skins,
and afterwards dried in an oven or kiln might be preserved 4 years
without injury and be as good for food as when they were taken from
the ground. A portion of skinned potatoes which had also undergone
the same process, and had been ground in a mill to meal, were
produced, which had been sent to Jamaica in a barrel 4 years
since, and did not appear in the least affected either by the voyage
or lapse of time." Avis's Birmingham Gazette Septm. 22, 1800.

N.B. The fat of Venison will keep long after the flesh.
