CURING HAMs.-Just now it may not be
inappropriate to publish the following: the
first mode Of curing hams is the best. The
sugar cured hams, of Cincinnati, sell much
higher than those cured in the common
way. To keep hams from the bugs, give
them, with paint brush, a good coating OF
ashes. made by the addition OF water, OF
the consistency of paint; or pack in hickory
cask; or, what is better than all, deposte
each ham, after smoking, in bag made OF
cheap cotton, closing the bag tight with a
draw string, and hang them up again. A
smoke should be made m1er them in wet
weather, throughout the entire summer
Lou. Jour.
The Jersey mode is TO every so lbs. OF
hams, take four ounces of brown sugar. 8
ounces saltpetre, and pint OF fine salt
Pulverize and mix thoroughly. Rub the
hams well, and lay them on boards for SO "l
48 hours, then pack then, IN casks. adding
two quarts Of fine salt to every 80 lbs. OF
hams. In Is days they may be hung up to
smoke.
The Virginia mode is ''to put 10 each
joint large tea.spoonlul Of saltpere; rul
each piece " ell on both sides, and pack
them away in hogshead with holes in the
bottom, let off The brine. Let them remain
five or six weeks; then take them out. brus.
off the salt, rub we'll with hickory ashes and
hang each piece in the smoke house, SO as
not TO tonch each other. Smoke or 10
days successive y and occasionally in damp
weather. Use small chips, bat AVOID pine
In my opinion, small chips OF green hlck
DRY OF apple trees, form the best inaleriai
for smoking, and the best mode Of keeping
them through summer is to tie them up N
bags, with little hay on the flesh side; sus.
pending them out Of the way of rats and
mice.
