How to Cure Hams.

There are two ways of curing bacon-by
the dry, or the picking process. The
former is the most trouble, but does away
with the necessity of barrel. Ths bacon
should be weighed out into lots OF 100
pounds, and six pounds of salt, one ounce
Of saltpetre and two quarts molasses should
be set apart as the quantity required for
curing it. If it is to be picked, after the
ingredients are thoroughly mixed q small
quantity should be sprinkled on the bottom
Of the barrel ,anda layer Of meat placed upon
it; more of the mixture should be sphnkled
on this, to be followd by another course
Of meat until the whole is firmly and snugly
packed, when well-water enough should be
put in to cover it. After remaining for six
weeks, the meat should be taken out and
smoked, and then each piece sewed up In
a muslin bag and hung mp in dry place, or
il it is designed to keep the bacon for a
considerable length of time, it may be
packed in dry salt aud the barrel headed up.
To cure by the dry process the meat should
rubbed in on the flesh side, with as much
adhering to tho meat as possible, after
which it should be piled up snugly with the
flesh side up and allowed to remain In this
condition for three days, when it should
again be rubbed and piled up as before.
This process should be followed up until
the whole amount of the mixture set apart
from the curing is exhausted. After re-
naming in the pile until the salt is ab-
sorbed-which may be known by the ap-
pearance of the meat--it may be smoked
and treated as mentioned above. The above
recipe is intended for light bacon; heavy
bacon will require pound or more of salt
per 100 pounds Of meat, and q longer time
for the salt to be absorbed when cured in
The dry state.-[F. D. Curtis.

Farmer OF West Bath, Me-, testifies-His
House was Gloomy with Forcbodines OF Death
Cured after Thirty Years Suffering.
WEST BATH, Me-, June 10, 1881.
EDITOR BOSTON JOURNAL:
You have been printing facts about good
thing and I will cheerfully tell my story. Ihave
been sufferer from kidney troubles for about
thirty years and have had frequent acute At
kind: l tried many doctors both regular and
specialists, but without any suceess. I also
tried all the most prominent remedies could
hear Of, all to no avail.
Last fall was completly prostrated, and had
excruciating pans, and my house was gloomy
with the fe1ebodings Of death: The attending
physician gave me up and was not expected
to recover. Some friends of our family came
in one day and said that they had found what
might prove blessing in disguise; and on
bearing their story, what Kidney Wort had
done for others, I was induced to try it, as
last resort 1t was done without the least par
t:cle OF faith, as considered my case entirely
hopeless.
A package was procured at Farr's drug store,

doses brought me to my feet and it las entire.

time! To say that there was great joy in that
household is to but partially tell the facts
Two acquaintances were suffering with
the same troubles, nearly, but not quite SO
bad as had been. recommended it to
them, and, seeing what it had done for me- they
used it with the same result All pain and
trouble was banished, three persons being

HOUSE AND FARM.
Wool Notes for Farmers.

The Amsriona Cwltivator, In the course
Of an article upon wool interests, says that
the value Of q lot Of wool depends largely
upon the proportion Of yearling deeces
therein, and 80 proportion Of the Oldest
lives should be failed and sold each year.
The value Of Aeoces in the same flock
varies much, even when the utmost care
and skill are devoted to the development
Of uniformity. In ENGLAND the deeces are
sorte into those from yearlings, those
from weathers and those from ewes.
The wool that will make the greatest num-
Der Of yards to the pound, is OF the great
est market value. Firm felting- cloth is
much less used now than formerly, the
most popular goods being Of hard and
twisted goods. The desired "curl" in the
staple. is determined by the scales OF serra-
tions upon the surface of the fiber, as seen
by any good microscope. The question OF
Of raising sheep pro6tably for mutton in
terests concerns many farmers who live
near to good markets. But much depends
upon the quality Of the sheep raised. The
feeling that anything is good enough for

tits not every farmer who abides by the
distinction between wool sheep and NUT
ton n-sheep. The good qualities of tho
Cotswolds are undoubted; but they need

Beauties of the H,p Vine

OF the decorative possibilities of the hop
vine. Tbs Michigan Farmer speaks thus
pleasantly: whoever has seen wild hop
vine making its way in the world to the
very tip top of slender sapling, running
riot over a dilapidated rail fence, or hang
ing its graceful garlands of dropping, pale
green bells over the naked limbs of some
PROSTATE woodland giant, exemplifying
how nature strives t, cover with loveliness
the decay she herself causes, will recognize
it's decorative possibilities. There are no
gay flowers, no odor save that Of cleanli-
ness, to attract the senses. The eye alone
is pleased by the graceful abandon of the
luxuriant vine, and the contrast of light
green panicles and the deeper hue OF foi-
age. Once started they live on indefinitely,
dying down in autumn to send up pale,
slender shoots in the spring. With all their
coquetrY there is an humble about them,
as if they we're conscious of the ienoble
uses to which they were born, and they
appear to best advantage over the woodshed
door, climbing against the kitchen window,
or cherishing the top of the we'll house in
loving embrace. They give an excellent
effect, however, when planted with other
climbers, the blending of foliage being
agreeable and the wreaths of pendant, nod
ding blossoms, yellowed with golden grains
Of lupulin, not suffering in grace or beauty
by contrast with even the beautiful ELENA
tis."

WHO PUNCHES TAE COINS?
The Amounts Realized From the Bori1
Process.

The Amounts Realized From the Boring
Process.
From the New York Evening Post
A reporter asked James N. Sampson, the
veteran detective employed at the SUBJ
treasury, to what the government detectives
attributed the sudden increase in the num-
Der of clipped and punched coins, which
has attracted so much attention Of late.
Mr.. Sampson said that it was perfectly we'll
known that nine-t tenths of the punching
was done in this city by Cubans. A num-
ber of silver coins were clamped together
in roll, and in less time than it takes to
write an account Of it, hole is drilled
through the whole lot. The value of the
silver obtained by punching hole Of usual
twenty fifth Of the value of the coin; so
that for every roll Of twenty-five quarter
dollars is obtained in moment by running
drill through the roll. Mr.. Sampson
says, also, that many Of the purchased coin
come from Mexico and South America
where our silver coins circulate freely, and
rarely escape mutilation. Several attempts
has been made Of late years to break up
the systematic punching Of coins, but With
little success. Only two convictions for
the offense have been made in ten years.
Mr.. Sampson remarked that while the bus
mess Of punching and filing coins was al
most wholly in the hands Of the Cubans,
the business of sweating gold coins BY sha-
king them up in q buckskin bag is attribut-
ed by the detectives to the denizens Of
Chatham street. BY shakinga bog contain
ing 100 eagles for three hours, the result in
gold dust will be worth about $40. Mr..
Floyd, the chief clerk of the assay Office,
said that the government rules relating to
light weight gold coins were defective,
and tended to keep such coins in circu-
lation. When gold coin less than twenty
years old is abraded to more than one-h half
per cent of its value, it is stamped with an
IL" at the Sub Treasury and returned to
whoever offers 1t, instead Of being sent to
the mint. The object is to force the hold
or to take it to the assay Office or mint to be
sold at it's real value, instead Of which it
goes into circulation again. The trouble is
that congress has never made any provis-
ion for redeeming mutilated or even abrad-
ed coin. Many persons think that all the
pieces that have been worn down beyond
recognition in actual service should be re-
deemed st par. The difficulty is to tell
when piece has been worn smooth
through use or brought to that condition
by sweating or other artificial means. Mr..
Floyd considers that the mutilation of sill
YER coin does not need government inter-
ference because, unlike the abrasion Of
gold, the mutilation Of silver coin can be
detected at once, and it rests with the pub
lie to drive such coins ont OF circulation.
