To Make Excellent Bacon.

Pigs must not be extra fat to make the
best Of bacon, and the spare-rib lean
must be left on the ribs, the bone must
be cut out. and the sides cut square and
smooth; the trimmings can be made in
to sausage or 60 with the fat into lard.
The first six months is the best grow
ing age for a pig, and at this
age they arc suitable for the pur.
pose. After that they begin to get
thick and fat Bacon may be cured
the same as hams and shoulders.
only it does not require so long sailing,
Usually the salt is rubbed on the pieces.
and they are piled up for few days to
let it strike through. Three rubbings are
enough. 1t should never be allowed to
freeze during the curing, and il frozen
it must be thawed out by soaking in wa
ter. Bacon will take in salt enough,
unless the sides are very thick, in three
weeks when it is ready to be smoked.
After smoking it..may be hung in dry,
cool place or packed in dry salt or in
tight boxes. 1t is ready for use, and a
dish Of good bacon is a treat for break
fast or any meal. As a side dish it has
no superior. 1t may be broiled in dainty
bits or fried in more generous slices. Il
is excellent to favor chicken or stews, and
for staple meat is far preferable to
pork.

Judging Draft Horses.

A good draft horse must possess
strong vital organs, which fact is usu-
ally INDICATED by the form and relative
size of the trunk. His joints and legs
must be strong and perfect, free from
curbs (and spavins, the skin lying close
and firm to hard and elastic cords, with
an entire absence of "beef" upon those
parts; the feet should be large, neither
fat nor mule-shaped, the horn hard and
elastic but not brittle. The bottom of
the foot should be examined to see that
it possesses the desired concave appear
ance, and that the frog does its work
perfectly because it is in the feet that our
heavy draft horses are most VIGOROUSLY
defective. The principal requisite Of
good draft horse is, good size, made up
without superabundance of fat /; but to
this must be added docility, soundness
and endurance. Given all the valuable
qualities above described In perfection,
and then the more of action and style he
possesses the better. He may be very
nearly perfect in all respects, and yet be
too small to be classed as frst-class
draft horse. On the other hand he may
weigh ton. but if the weight be made
up mainly of fat, or if he be ill-tempered,
unsound, or lacking in endurance, his
value is materially lessenod. He may
possess all the points enumerated and yet
be so deficient in energy, and so heavy
and sluggish in his movements, as to
come far short of a perfect draft horse.
When called upon to act as judge in
this class, the intelligent horseman will
give due prominence to all these points,
and will not be deceived by mere meas
urement or weight; the true test being
the comparative adaptation of the animal
TO perform the work which pertains to
the class in which it is shown.

AFTER THE RAIN.

! heard song on the moorland brown,
When the day grew fair and long;
hethought no voice in the noisy town
Could sing SO sweet song.
1t was herd boy, all alone
Alone on the showery plain
Who sang with silver trumpet tore.
"The sunshine follows the rain"
My thoughts turn back to that April day
As pace the city street;
But the brown, brown moor lies far away
From the tread of weary feet;
Yet ever the song rings clear and loud,
Over and over again.
Above the din of the restless crowd
"rhe sunshine follows the rain"
God knows it is hard to fret and strive
For the gold that soon is spent;
II seems sometimes that the sinners thrive,
While saints are less content:
But He knows, too, that the clouds will par
And the hidden path grow plain:
His angels sing TO the doubling heart,

A correspondent insists upon tho ne
ccssity of letting pigs have access to
plenty OF moist sand or earth in some
form or other. and considers that sys-
tenn of feeding them almost exclusively
on skim-milk, meal and such material
is responsible for many of the ailments
of the intestinal canal. so frequently met
with. He states that ailing pigs are Of
ten quickly restored to health by simply
putting a trough Of wet sand into their
sty. and recommends that a supply should
always be kept there for the animals to
help themselves ad iibitum. Pigs roam

How TO SAVE SEED Com. The poor
est way. though one that is practiced
quite extensively. is to allow il to re-
main on the stalks till near mid-winter,
TO husk it and throw it in crib with the
corn that is intended for the market or
for feeding. A good way. IL not the best,
is 10 select the ears before the stalks are
removed from the hill. the preference
being given to those that are Of large
size and thoroughly ripe. The ears
should be broken from the stalks with
the husks attached. In this shape they
may be taken to the house or barn in
basket. All the husks should be re-
moved except three or four Of the inner
once, that should be used for braiding
sufficient number Of ears together to
form a string Eve or six feet 10 length.
II the weather is fine. these braids may
be hung over rail where the sun and
wind will have free access TO them. Dur
ing the winter they may be hung in a
garnet or unfinished room in the house.
