THURSDAY, MARCH 3, 1966 THE NEWBERRY SUN. NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA PAGE THREE FARM- NOTES GARDEN: To be a successful home gard- ner, it takes careful planning and constant attention. It is not too early in the year if you are a spring or summer gard- ner, to have success in your garden; select carefully the site, plant the right time, use the light amount of fertilizer, recommended varieties of seeds and insect control. While talking about garden ing; there are a number of veg etables that we can get in the garden here in Newberry coun ty during this month such as: onions, beets, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, radish, spinach and Irish potatoes. Other informa tion such as: varieties of seeds, fertilizers and insect control can be obtained from the county agent's office. PRUNING It is not too late to do some late fruit tree pruning if you liave not gotten around to it, but surely it should be done in the next few days. Continous spraying for leaf curl, San Jose scale, Corculio and brown rot with the recommended chemicals is a must if you plan to harvest good f mit. PORK Oh yes, killing hog time is not over yet, and some of us are known to cure our meats t>y what is known as the Coun- try-Style-Cure. This procedure from now on into the spring will be a race between the growth of spoilage in fresh pork and penetration of the preserving salt. For this rea son, the meat should be chilled well before being cured, should not be allowed to warm up and should be kept cold during the curing process. This applies to any type of meat curing, but it is especially important for dry curing. There are several variations of dry-cure procedures. One method is to use salt alone at the rate of 8-10 percent of the weight of the meat. A more ac cepted method is known as the dry-suger cure. This employs salt, sugar and saltpeter. Salt is primary the curing ingred ient in any mix. Sugar is used to preserve the juices and help keep the meat from becoming so hard during the aging per iod. Sugar also gives the pro duct some flavor. Saltpeter is desired in a high quality pro duct because it develops the attractive red celor of cured meat. Weigh accurately both meat and ingredients. Apply the cur ing mixture to the meat im mediately after cutting. A good dry-sugar cure can be made with 7 pounds of salt, 2 pounds of sugar, and 2 ounces cf saltpeter, will adequately cure 100 pounds of hams or shoulders. Use one-half of this amount for bacon and other thin cuts. The amount of salt can be reduced for a milder cure but should not go below 6 lbs. per 100 lbs of meat. Thissame dry-cure mix can beused as a thin-rub in 3 applications. For example: Five hams of 20 lbs. each equals 100 pounds total. Day No. 1—Rub about 3 lbs. of mix on hams and place in curing room. Day No. 4—Sec ond application of about three pounds. Day No. nine—Third application of the remainder. Day No. 35—Remove meat from curing, soak in clean luke warm water for 30 minutes or so, scrub off all excess salt and allow meat to dry. If the smok ing process is used, bacon and other thin cuts can be placed directly in smokehouse to dry and smoke. Hams and should ers are hung back in the cooler for about 2 weeks then remov ed to smokehouse for smoking. Meat is smoked until it reaches a golden brown color, usually in about 24 hours. It is best to use hickory, cherry, pecan or some other hardwood. Smoke house temperature should not exceed ninety degrees for the best results. FROM LITTLE ACORNS BIG OAKS GROW Just like a line from the poem, “From Little Acorns Big Oaks Grow,"—from tiny seed lings the mighty pine trees glow. We have moved into one of the leading counties in the production of pulpwood. By the same token, over a period of years, we could produce more saw timber. The first step for most farmers should be good management of the farm wood lands we already have. Cut out trees that are diseased, unde cirable or over crowded, use hardwood control whereever necessary, and plant seedlings in those spots where there are none. This is a step in the right direction. Newberry has moved into 4th place, Statewide, in pulpwood production. In 1965 our wood lands produced better than 95 and one-half thousand cords of pulpwood. Furthermore, in 1965 there were 59 farms eligible to be classified as a tree farm. These farms have a combined acreage of 62,647 acres. One more figure of interest—there was a total of 1,217,800 seed lings of all species set in the 1964-65 season in Newberry county on 1,277 acres. Yes, Forestry is big business here in Newberry county. It takes good management to keep it that way.

Winter’s inclement weather often makes it necessary to dry clothes indoors. This, however, is no excuse to dry them over or near an open flame, the Am erican Insurance Association says. Such drying methods could touch off a fire resulting in tragic consequences, the As sociation warns. J. C. Brooks dies suddenly James C.
