The object in curing meats is to preserve them for future use, but at the same time their flavor, palatability, and attractiveness should be preserved or perhaps improved. If more meat were cured or canned on. the farm there would be less danger of eating too much meat at certain | seasons and a better balance in menus would be maintained throughout the year. The common ways of preserving meats are drying, smoking, salt curing, pickling, sugar curing and canning. j Methods of curing: (1). Before hanging meat and smoking, it should be kept in salt 3 , to 4 weeks or else in a solution as foli # I lows: To every 100 lbs of meat use: 2 quarts of salt 1 lb. of brown sugar, 1 oz. salt petre, 1 pint warm water, 1-8 lb. ground pepper. Dissolve salt petre in "warm water, add salt, sugar and pepper; mix well. Rub meat with this solution and pack in barrel or box. Let remain undisturbed two or three weeks; remove, wash and smoke until chestnut brown. When perfectly cured it may be rING STORE Me< V I Saturd Department n r \ni/irir upi uu \ ns In New Suits remendous Drop in P ti?

The borax pre cuts invasion of insects. s2). Pickled meats: 1 00 lbs. meat, R lbs. salt, - lbs. brown sugar, 2 oz. salt petre, 1-4 lb. ground black pepper, 4 gals, water. I When meat is free from animal heat, rub each piece with salt and allow to stand overnight. Then pack inj jar or barrel putting largest pieces at bottom. Dissolve all ingredients in water and pour brine over meat which should be weighted down with something heavy, to keep it all beneath brine, (it is advisable to boil the brine and cool before pouring over meat). Meat should remain in pickle from 6 to 8 weeks. When, removed the pieces may be smoked and they will keep indefinitely through the summer. The meat will be sweet, palatable, and of splendid flavor. (3). Virginia recipe for curing hams and shoulders: When meat is re-! moved from dry cure or pickle it may be washed and following mixture added to each piece: 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon salt petre, 3 tablespoons black pepper, 3 tablespoons brown sugar or syrup enough to make a smooth paste. Rub well on each piece, then smoke. When cured wrap in brown paper and pack away. Borax may be sprinkled on joints to keep out insects. NEWS FROM DOWN ON BROADWAY.
