After weeks of preparation the hams are ready to be smoked. The smoke houses con 1# sist sometimes of two, and sometimes * of three stories, the fire being kindled In the lowest and the meat hung in tiie second and third, te which the ?moke ascends through holes in the . flooring. Westphallan hams are In- , variably smoked over a. -bright flre_J made cf be^ch-wood only, except that Juniper twigs and berries^ are constant ly thrown on the Are. Beech-wood ?Mtiust is strewn over the Are in it becomes too strong. The amoklng process requires on an aver se about eight days. r" ' LODGE DIRECTORY ?Rising star Chapter No. 4, R.
