How to Keep Meat Fresh a Long
Time.

There is no good reason why farm
ers and their families should eat SO
much salt pork, leaving all the fresh
meat to the inhabitants of cities and
villages, when the following method
will keep meat fresh for weeks, even in
the warmest weather. know for have
tried it for more than ten years As
soon as the animal heat is out Of the
meat slice it up ready for cooking.
Prepare large jar by scalding well
with hot salt and water. Mix salt
and pulverized saltpeter in the por-
portion Of one tablespoonful of salt
peter to one teacupfhl of salt, Cover
the bottom of the jar with u sprinkle
of salt and pepper, Put down q lay
ing of meat, sprinkle With salt and
pepper the same as if just going to the
table, and continue in this manner till
the jar is full. Fold cloth or towel
and wet it in strong salt and water,
in which q little of the saltpeter is dis
solved. Press the cloth closely over
the meat and set in cool place. BE
sure and press the cloth on tightly as
each layer is removed, and your meat
will keep Tor months, 1t is Il good
plan to let the meat lie over night
after it is sliced before packing. Then
drain-of all the blood that oozes from
it. 1t will be necessary to change
the cloth occasionally, or take it off
and wash it-frst in cold water, then
scald in salt apd water as at first. In
this way farmers can have fresh meat
the year round. ] have kept beef
that was killed the 18th of February
till the 2lst Of June, Tten packed
4 large jar of veal in the same way
during the dog-days, and it k,pt six
weeks. This recipe is worth the
price Of any newspaper in the land.
