CURING MEAT ON TUB FAKM
In curing pork on tho farm, the
College of Agriculture says to be
sure that the hog has been properly
slaughtered and then chilled without
freezing for at least twenty-four
hours. Hams, shoulders, and sides
make the best smoked meat and
should be trimmed of all three-cornered
pieces and ragged edges. These
small scraps make good sausage but
poor ham. Cut off the shankB thru
the center of the hock or knee, thuB
sealing up the marrow in the bone.
Rub the meat well with salt and
leave over night. Pack in a clean,
hardwood barrel with tho heavier
hams on the bottom, the shoulders
next, and the bacon on top. Good
brine can be made from 10 pounds
of salt, two pounds of BUgar or mo
lasses, two ounces of saltpeter, and
four gallons of water to one hun
dred pounds of meat. It is a good
precaution to boil and skim this mix
ture. Brine does not freeze easily,
but meat cures more rapidly if it
does not become too cold. Tho ba
con will cure in from twenty-two to
thirty days, while the heavier hams
need from forty to sixty days.
Freshen cured meat in lukewarm
"water for six hours. Dry and smoke
with hardwood or corncobs for four
to seven days, it being safer to let
the fire go outatnight. Well-smoked
meat keeps best in a cool, dark,
Iry, well-ventilated place.
LAST CALL FOR EGG LAYING CONTEST
Boys and girls wishing to enter the
egg laying contest to bo conducted
by the ExtenBionSeryice pf the Col
lege of Agriculture in cooperation
with the United States Department
of Agriculture have but until Janu
ary 15 in which to make application.
Any Nebraska boy or girl under 18
years of age and over 10 may join
and receive the monthly instruction
sheets without cost. Tho object of
tho egg laying contest will be to get
the most eggs from pach hen of a
ilock. Egg records begin February
1 and ends June 1. Enrollment
cards may.be received at once from
the Extension Service, College of Ag
riculture, Lincoln. Awards will be
presented to the winners.
OFFER TO PLAN FARMSTEADS
Most farmers prefer field work to
chores. While chores can never be
eliminated from farm work, the time
spent upon them may bo shortened
lay a good arrangement of tho farm
buildings. Tho well-arranged farm
stead not only saves labor but pre
sents a pleasing appearance to the
passer-by and an attractive outlook
to the farm owner. The, Depart
ment of Farm Management of the
College of Agriculture at Lincoln
has made a special study of farm
plans and is always ready to answer
letters from farmers who contem
plate building or making any chang
es in tho plans of their farms or lo
cation of their buildings.
SELF-FEEDER FOR PIGS PAID
A daily gam ot z.uz pounds was
made by 14 spring pigs in a six
weeks' test with a self-feeder at the
College of Agriculture this winter.
The cost per hundred pounds gain
was $4.04. In making the gains the
nies ate G4.G bushels of shelled corn
and 800 pounds of tankage. The corn
was charged at C3 cents a bushel and
the tankage at $2.50 per. hundred
weight. Computing tho gain on tho
pigs at six cents a pound, a price of
W cents a bushel was received for
the corn fed.
LEAST EXPENSIVE DAIRY, FEED
If clover or nlfalfa hay is used in
the dairy ration, little of the expen
sive protein feeds such as oil meal
or cottonseed meal need be added to
balance the ration. Owing to the
present high prices of corn, bran,
etc., a limited amount of either oil
meal or cottonseed meal seems to
make a less expensive grain ration
than if this is omitted.
MATCHING CLOTHES WITH YOURSELF
The girl with dark brown hair and
jyes usually can wear tho darker
browns, according to the Homo
Econdmics Department of the Col
lege of Agriculture, while tho
girl with tho reddish or auburn hair
will need the more golden brown or
ihf hliins but not the reds nor pinks.
as a general rule. The girl with the
blue eyes and fair complexion usu
ally looks better it) tho blues.
AGRICULTURAL COURSE STARTS SOON
The regular six weeks' winter
course of the University School of
Agriculture at Lincoln wjlj begin
January 4, The course includes a
study of gasoline engines, form ma
chinery. animal diseases, marketing,
accounts, field crops, soils, .poultry,
fruits, vegetables, dairying,' tv1

ANTI-FREEZING SOLUTION
Salt, glycerine, and denatured al
n.nimi onmrnnnlv used to form an-
it.froo7.incr solutions for automobile
radiators. Hoarding tho comparo
tlve merits of theso solutions, the
professor in chnrgu of automol He in
struction at the College of Agricul
ture says: "Salt forms crystals
which are liable to lessen the effici
ency of the radiator if nothing
worse. Glycerine attacks the rubber
hnsfi connections and is comnarative-
Iv exoensive. Alcohol is clean and
docs not affect the rubber or iron to
speak of. Solutions of alcohol freeze
about as lollows:
A 10 per cent mixture nt about 25
decrees above zero.
A 20 per cent mixture at about 10
degrees above zero.
A HO per cent mixture at about 5
degrees below zero.
A 40 per cent mixture at about 20
degrees below zero.
To check tho solution, take a small
amount from the radiator, place in
a bottle, and nut out of doors. If
the solution begins to show signs of
freezing over, put more alcohol into
the radiator. In filling the radiator
made necessary by evaporation, al
ways fill with alcohol.
PINK, WHITE, AND BLUE POTATOES
Some pink, white, and blue pota
toes were grown this year at the Col
lege of Agriculture. The plants all
came from one package containing
about twenty seeds. These
seeds were planted in plates
early in the spring, and when
the seedlings became large enough
they were set in the field. Only
thirteen plants revived and grow to
maturity, and from the lis plants
came approximately thirteen differ
ent types of potatoes. Among the
most interesting is one ueciueuiy
blue skinned, another light pink,
one a purplish brown, while the re
mainder all have white skins. The
sizo and type range from round to
long and flat, and the potatoes in a
hill vary from 10 to 85 per cent of
marketable tubers. The quality is
also rather variable.
This is one common action of many
plants which crnne from seed, and
that is one of the reasons why many
horticultural crops are propagated by
vegetative means rather than by
seed, in order to have the plants
like the parent.
CHICK AND EGG CONTEST
A junior poultry project has been
organized as a part of the Boys' and
Girls' club work of the Extension
Service of the College of Agriculture
for 1916, in addition to the corn, po
tato, gardening, nig. sewing, and
cooking projects. Any Nebraska
boy or girl under 18 years of age and
over 10 may join and receive the
monthly instruction sheets without
cost.
This work will be divided into two
contests, one an egg laying contest
and the other a hatching and rear
ing contest. The object of the egg
laying contest will be to get the most
eggs from each hen of a flock. One
may enroll in this contest up to Jan
uary 15. Egg recordB commence
February 1 and end June 1. The ob
ject of the hatching and rearing con
test will be to hatch and rear the
largest percentage of chicks up to
four months of age. One may en

INDICATIONS OF TENDER POULTRY
Smooth skin and scales, soft car
tilage at the end of the breast or
keel bone, and tender skin under the
wings, which is easily torn by bend
ing back the wing, indicate tender
ness in poultry, according to the Col
lege of Agriculture. The flesh
should give easily and gently when
pressed with the finger. Long hairs,
long thin necks, looso skin, long
spurs, and feet with sharp scales in
dicate ago and, therefore, tough
poultry.

PROTECT APPLE TREES
Ab mice and rabbits are likely to
girdle young apple trees during the
winter months, the horticulturists of
tho College of Agriculture say that
all grass, weeds, nnd litter should bo
removed from the base of the treet
to provent the mice from having a
nesting place. Three or four corn
stalks tied securely around the
young trees will prevent rabbits
from gnawing tho bark of the
trunks. Tho stalks should bo re
moved in tho spring.

This is encouraging when we have
the nerve to defy tho grafters and

of their ridicule. Here is a portion

glad to know wo have at least one
editor in the 3rd Congressional dis
trict who has brains and courage
enough to stand for the truth as ten
percent of our population own PP
percent of our total wealth, I think
it is about time for the American
people to wake up and study Social

the people both Industrial and Polit

Mr. Spencer, editor of the Dakota
City Mail, gave us an ngreeable call

of carrying tho Covington, Colum

day, are brightening every day.

Dakota and Dixon counties, Neb.,
voted yesterday upon the question
of voting bonds in aid of the Coving
ton, Columbus and Black Hills rail
road. The returns from Dixon
county are meager, but there is no
reason to doubt that the bunu, veic
carried by the required majority.
Tho battle of the day was fought in
Dakota county, and there the inter
est of Sioux City centered. Some
thirty or forty of our citizens spent
the day in various parts of the coun
ty, remaining until after the polls
were closed and the votes counted
last evening, then returning to re
port. The eoupt was 48(5 for the
bonds am) 95 against,

Ponca Journal, Dec. 18, 1888:
Ex-Treasurer C. T. Barto passed
Sunday with his family in Ponca, re
turning to Wakefield on Monday,
Mr. Barto's crop of corn this year
was about G,000 bushels, which will
be fed mostly to hogs and cattlp op
his farm near Logan preek. Mr
B. is looking well and evidently enV
joys his release from the cares of of
fice. The fact is, a farmer in pos
session of a fine farm and without
incumbrance to worry him, is better
off and will make more money than
he can in any county office.
