Domestic Recipes.


Uses OF SAND BAG.-One of the most
lie sand bag. Get some clean, fine sand, dry
it thoroughly in kettle on the stove, make a
bag about eight inches square of flannel, fill it
with the dry sand, sew the opening carefully
together, and cover the bag with cotton or
linen cloth This will prevent TIE sand from
sitting out, and will also enable you to heat
the bag quickly by placing it in the oven, or
even on the top of the stove After once using
this you will never again attempt to warm the
feet or hands of sick person with bottle of
hot water or brick. The sand holds the
heat d long time, and the bag can be tucked
.up to the back without hurting the invalid.
It is good plan to make two or three of the
bags and keep them ready for use-N y Post.
To CURE ROUNDS OF BEEF OR TONGUES
Make brine of gals. water, 2 lbs coarse
salt. h. brown sugar and ozs. saltpeter.
Boil and skim; when cold pour over the meat,
which has been sprinkled with salt for few
hours previously to draw out the blood The
during the winter. Rounds and tongues should
be kept in the brine two weeks before being
smoked; if kept in longer, the brine must be
reboiled and skinned.
SAUSAGE MEAT.-Separate the tender parts
of the mes from the rough and bony pieces,
and chop each sort separately; to 90 lbs of
meat have half pound of salt, three heaped
tablespoonsful of sage, three of pepper and two
of thyme. Spread the meat in tub and mix
the seasoning before it is chopped and it will
be much better after done than if left to season
