others an catl with the uplifted hand the
Chinese people regard only those on the
death Of a cock as sacred. The prosecution

Sailing PoEK.-It is important to have
the pork we'll cooled before sailing, and it
should not remain unsalted long after cool
ing. It should never be allowed to freeze.
it should always have great supply of salt,
Of the strongest qualify and brine should
be made and poured into the barrel. For if
nothing but water is put in with the salt,
the pork may be injured before the salt is
melted enough to make good brine. The
meat should have weight upon it to keep
it under the brine; for if pieces of meat are
permitted to rise above the brine, and re-
main there for any considerable time, they
viii be tainted, and will not taste sweet, as
well-salted meat always will. A wooden
cover is often used to keep the meat undsr
the brine. but a stone cover is better. a
hole may be drilled in a stone cever and a
handle inserted at small cost. Agitation
