Curing Bacon.

Some persons seem 10 consid-
er the curing Of bacon a COM
plicatcd and most difficult oper-
alton, but this is all a mistake.
They tell us that only profess
SIGNALS can give it the right
kind of favor, as they have Of
zen demonstrated by most thor
ougE ti1al-the trials were not
correctly made. DIR. Pollard,
of Virginia, who has studied
and tested the bacon question
from every standpoint, says as
a general rule, there is TOO much
smoking. This is more ne
cessary in the large meat,
as it serves to dry the meat of,
and the creosote engendered by
9he smoking process is antisep-
tic and preseryatiye. The
Western meat retains this
smoked, disagreeable taste. In
England and France smoking is
not used at all, and this is an
evidence it is smoked too much
here, or more than necessary.
An important matter is that the
animal heat should be out be-
fore sailing, and this may be
accomplished in the same day
il The hogs ale killed by "day-
break" and the weather is toll
erably cold. In no event per-
NIT the pork to freeze. Many
modes have been adopted for
curing hams, there is none bet
ter than the following: For
twelve moderate size hams,
take twelve pounds Of salt, one
pound of saltpetre, and enough
molasses to rub them together,
producing the consistence and
appearance of damp brown SUI
gar. Rub this in well, lay the
hams separate on boards, with
the skin side down. Repeat
the application every week for
four weeks. Then hang up and
smoke on damp days with hick-
DRY chips if procurable; not to
be smoked more than four or
five times. Towards the last
of February enclose the hams
in canvas, painted, or what an
swers as we'll in our experience,
large paper bags, securing well
around the hook. This keeps
out shippers and other insects.
Immediately before doing this
rub some black pepper on the
meat side.

Salt on Wheat.

In an interesting series Of Rx-
periments recently made on the
farm of the Royal Agricultural
Society of England, the manu-
riaf value Of salt was unmistak-
ably indicated. An acre of
wheat dressed with three hun
dred pounds Of common salt
yielded thirty-nine bushels Of
grain with a proportionate a.
mount Of straw, while an ad-
joining acre, left unmanured,
produced only enty-nine bush
els per acre, with the straw i'm
perfectly developed. The entire
cost of the crop is not stated,
bat this experiment shows that
the additional ten bushels result
ting from the salt were produced
at cost Of thirty cents each.
In another case piece of ground
intended for wheat was plough
ed the preceding fall, and again
in May, when it was soweG with
salt and afterward ploughed be-
fore seeding. On the first and
second of September wheat was
soWn at the rate of two bushels
to the acre. The crop when
harvested, yielded, according to
the estimate of the owner, Mr..
John Parker, not less than forty
bushels of grain to the acre,
with a luxuriant growth of straw.
From these and many similar
cases the inference seems to be
that salt is a specific for the
wheat crop, imparting solidity
to the grain and firmness to the
straw. But it must not be con-
cluded that equally good results
will always follow the applica-
ton of salt.

In a food in Austin, Texas, a
man found himself left on a
swiftly dissolving bank. He
called to his son, who was on
high ground above, to throw a
rope. The boy did so, and the
old man, as he took one end of
the line in his hand, said: "Now
listen to me, and do as [ tell

A FARO-TABLE DUEL. +
The Son of a Colorado Judge Kills
and is Killed at Short Range.

The Son of a Colorado Judge Kills
and is Killed at Short Range.
Denver Tribune.l
According to the accounts
just received from Silver City,
Green was dealing faro at ta-
BILE in one Of the new gambling
shops which have sprung with
the town into life, and young
Leslie Mccoy, the son of Judge
Mccoy, was playing. The linn
it of the game, according to
this report, was $3.50, but Nc
Coy persisted in pressing the
limit and betting more than the
rules permitted. A running
quarrel was kept up for some
time. AT last Mccoy made a
bet of 1915, and then when be
lost undertook to reclaim $1.25,
claiming that he should retain
all over the limit. Here the
quarrel became ferocious; Green
demanded the money, but Nc
Gov said that he could not have
it-that no man could take it.
Considerable swearing was in
dulged IN on both sides. Frank
Pottcrfeld, who is also gamb-
Ter, occupied the lookout chair,
and at this junction drew a re-
yolyer. T his was a move
fraught with doubly fatal con-
sequences. Potterfield had no
sooner brought his weapon to
light than Mccoy produced one,
and it became evident that blood
would be spilled unless some
one backed down. On account
of lame hand Potterfeld was
unable to use the revolver.
Grasping the situation in a
twinkling, Green snatched Pot
terfield's weapon, and in the
flash of an eye had leveled it at
his antagonist. The room was
crowded when the quarrel be-
gan, but as may we'll be mag
ined, there was now a general
rlsh for the door, as we'll there
might be. Very few, if any,
were actual witnesses of the
conflict. The fight was of short
duration, but furious. The two
men were OH opposite sides of
the deal-table, and could almost
have struck each other with
their weapons. In much less
time than it required to tell the
story the occurrence had come
to an end. The guns in the
hands of both men were raised
a m o t simultaneously, and
both fired at very nearly the
same time, the barrels of the
two pistols tapping across the
table. Whether either ball took
effect does not appear, but it
seems quite probable that in the
excitement both missed their
aim, close as they were to each
other. At any rate, three shots
were fired by each of the par
ties before the dreadful duel
came to an end, when the crowd
rushed back, to find both men
rceking in blood, Mccoy was
lying across the dcal-table, and
had already breathed his last.
The bullet which had proved
fatal had gone direct to the scat
Of life, passing through the
heart. Mccoy had also given
his antagonist a ball in the
head, which, If il does not prove,
or has not proved, fatal, will
give Green great trouble, and
be the cause Of disfiguring his
coUntenance for life. Green
was shot in the left eye, he ball
ranging down and coming out
under the right Jaw.

1t is a gratifying sign of progress
when We see manufactures arising
around as, to supply such things as we
have hitherto procured out of the State,
and sending the little money that we
have to pay for them. We were much
pleased last week in inspecting a wagon
made by Mr.. j. D. Ross of Orange City,
for Messrs. G. A. Dreka & Co. of this
place. All the material, excepting the
iron, are the product of this State, and
the workmanship was all done here, and
a more faithful piece of workmanship,
and neat turnout could not be furnished
by northern manufacturer. Mr.. Ross
is also making steel plows to suit the
ountry, and their merit is shown by the
rush of the old settlers to procure them
He combines lightness with strength in
his workmanship, and their cheapness
and execution are all that can be desired,
as in the wagon, all the material, ex-
cept iron, is the production of Florida.
We hope that Mr.. Ross will be vel.
supported, SO as to stimulate others tol
follow his example. and open up new
industries among us.

Judging by the busy appearance in
front of Weightman & Christopher's
wholesale rooms, at Jacksonville, the
country merchants must be laying in
new stocks of goods and the business
of the State be reviving. 1t is pleas
ant to know this. We also infer that
these gentlemen know what mer-
chants want and that they have GUS
toners for their goods. Anything in
their line Florida merchants can buy
there and we suggest to those of the
country merchants who are not al
ready dealing with them that it is
only fair to give them trial. Retail
merchants ask the people to trade at
home, instead of sending orders
away. The principle is equally good
applied to the country merchants.
II these gentlemen, Weightman 6

nothern firms, they should have the
preference.
