We use far less pickled pork in our family lhan formerly. as we have found sniisfaclory methods of keeping the meat fresh. or nearly so, as long as we care to have it. writes Eva Mills Anilnr- son. For those who wish to use a pickle the following recipe will be found sm- isfnctory: Lot ihemeni, cool thoroughly: when cold rub suit inlo it, using plem)’ 0! salt and rubbing well. Lei. stand on u slanting board or table for 24 hours to drain. Munnwhilc prepare your brine as {oliowsz [For each 100 lbs. of meat use IO'ms. suit. 1 oz. cnch oi sallpoii‘e and cayenne pepper, 1 qt. molasses and 8 gals. soft water. Boll and skim and when cold pour over the packed meat. The foregoing recipe is also good tor corned beet using 3 tbs. less salt to the other ingredients. A beet or pork barrel must be kept tor its own use find on no account put one kind otmeat into a barrel or a brine which has been used {or the other. Be coretul to have a weighted board to keep the meat un- der the lsrine and when a piece is re- moved for use see that the remainder is entirely covered and weighted down. Our present method of using pork is quite different from the old way. ‘Tllc hams and shoulders are nicely trimmed and with all the meat put. in the fore- going brine about six weeks. The hams and shoulders are then taken out‘ drained, and every part of the flesh side and the end of the bones rubbed with a mixture of equal parts of ground black and cnyrnne pepper. They are then smoked. NO' definite rule can be given for smoking. the conditions are so varied. We prefer hickory chips. but some of our neighbors who have good hams use corn-cabs and some use maple. The tire should smoulder about five or six weeks. thn the hams are cured there are diverse ways 0! preserving them. We pack them in barrels of dry. wood ash- es. Some sew them in cotton bags and give the bags 8 coat 0! whitewash. others cut in slices a’hd partially fry them‘ packing in their own grease in jars, using additional lard lo cover if necessary. Our objection in this is that “c occasionally like a ham (0 boil wholr. Slill others leave their hams hanging in the smoke-house all summer or un- til used. claiming that the smoke and pepper protect. them irom the attacks of flies. We make lard of nearly all the mt meat. keeping not. more than 10 or 20 lbs [or eating. which we keep in the brine made after the above recipe. We bake or try the tenderloin. This is fine cut in narrow strips and rolled in but- tcr or in corn meal and tried. We make bacon; at some of the sides of the ani- mal it not too fat. We grind the lean part into sausage meat. Towards spring we take our salt pork out of the brine, slice it and partly in it and pack it in jars covering it with grease .‘r lnrd. Then use when wanted. It too salt freshen when ready «to use by soak- ing from 1': to 24 hours in sweet .‘r sruur milk or buttermilk. Frying out the Lard.â€"~'l‘his is probably l the most trying operation which falls to the lot of the farmer‘s wife during the year. Some do it a little at a time‘ and some rush it through as fast as possible. We like the latter method. as 3'. saves many cleanings of the stove and floor. It is impoteible to try out. lard and not have a spotted stove and floor. We try the leaf lard by itself and keep it by itself for choice purposes. Cut in small pieces, put a little water in the bottom of the kettle to keep from scorch- ing. cook slowly and dip the lard out with a ladle, straining it into the jar. We fill every available place on lhe stove with kettles and frequently put some in the oven in dripping pans, us- ing no water in these. Cook slowly. stir trtquently; vigilance is the price of suc- cess. We put that for summer use in 5 and‘ 10-h). pails: [or winter in jars. Lard usually keeps perfectly. but it at any time there are doubts, heat it boil- ing hot and slice in some raw potato, removing it in a. few moments.

In March, 1899, three Belgian sheep dogs were bought. for him by the veter- inary oilicer oi the city, and their train: ing was at. once taken in hand by the tPoliee Commissioner. Shortly before Christmas tcn clog policemen were at iwork, and after it reasonable period had elapsed a report was sent to the hurgo- inastcr. After ten months of trial the most conservative members of the (Zity Council of Ghent became enthusiasts oycr the new police recruits and voted more money: for dogs to he used in the l’aubour'g dc Bruges and along the smaller docks.
