PICKLED PORK EQUAL TO FRESH.
A lady contributor at Perry, Ill.,, sends
the following directions to the American
Agricnf:urtSl "Let the meat cool thor
oughly, cut it into pieces a to inches
wide, weigh them and pack as tight as
possible in the barrel, sailing very tightly.
Cover the meat with brine made as strong
as possible. Pour off gallon of the brine
and mix with it one table spoonful of salt
Ieter for every hundred pounds of meat
and return it TO the barrel. Let it stand
one month, then take out the meat let it
drain twelve hours. Put the brine in an
iron kettle, add one quart of molases, or
two lbs. of sugar, and boil until perfectly
clear. When it is cold, return the meat
to the barrel, and pour on the brine.
Weight it down, and keep it covered close,
and you will have the sweetest meat you
ever tasted"

HOW TO KEEP BEEF.

In response to an inquiry for practical
directions how to cure beef, so that it will
keep until June, and yet not too salt for
thetable,lW. B. Dryer, Douglass Co., ILL.,,
writes to the American AgriculYaist.-
For every 100 pounds of beef, use seven
pounds of salt, well rubbed on. Allow the
beef 10 stand in the salt for twenty.four
hours; take it from the vessel and pour off
the drippngs then pack closely, and COW
er with brine, made as follows For eve-
ry 100 pounds of beef, 4 ounces of Saltpe-
ter, 4 ounces of Bicarbonate Soda, l at.
Molasses.
E. A. Leonard, Defiance Co., Ohio says:
allow the beef to cool sufficiently after
killing, chen cut it into convenient sizes for
use, and pack it loosly into a barrel in
which have previously placed quantity
OF weak brine. When the meat is all in,
or the barrel full, see that the brine cov-
ersi it. Let itstand two or three days
then take out the meat, throw away the
brine, rinse out the barrel, and repack the
meat snugly. Make quantity of brine
sufficient to cover the meet, and strong
enough to bear an egg. Add 2 ounces of
saitpeter for every 100 pounds of meat,
pour it on the meat, and it will keep until
hot weather.
A subscriber in Green co., ILL.,, writes:
To 8 gallons of rain water, add pounds
of brown sugar, quart Of molasses, OF.
of saltpeter, and enough of common salt to
make brine strong enough to float an egg.
Rub the beef well with salt before placing
it in the barrel. Then pour over it the
prepared brine, and put on it a sufficient
weight to keep the beef covered with the
pickle. Each of the above contributors
says, that the method recommended has
been tried by him several years, and the
result was every way satisfactory. Where
a considerable quantity of beef is to be
cured, it might be well to try all the above
ways on different parcels; we should like
to hear which produces the best article
next May or June.
