BACON.

The best bacon is made from pigs
which will not weigh more than l25
pounds when dressed. The rashers
or strips for the bacon are cut length
wise of the pig and about half of the
sides are used. The portion next to
the backbone is fatter and lacks in
muscle, and is not 80 good on this &C.
count. When bacon is made from
small pigs-those weighing less than
100 pounds--the whole of the sides are
used. Red and black Berkshire hogs
make The best bacon because they have
the largest proportion of lean meat.
Six pounds of salt and four ounces of
salipetre should be used for 100
pounds of meat. Five pounds of
brown sugar may also be used or two
quarts of molasscs. II the bacon is
cured in barrel, the salt, saltpctre
and sweetening should be mixed and
a portion sprinklcd on the bottom of
the barrel, and some also between the
layers of the meat and on the top, and
water enough after the meat is packed

the meat will he ready TO smoke. Too
much smoke will color the meat and
give il rank taste. Another way to
cure bacon is TO rub the above mix

bacon and then pile up one piece above
another and let the mixture strike in.
After three days rub again and pile up
rs before. A week after rub again
and pile it up, putting the flesh side
up every time. The mixture should
be divided into three equal parts, to
provide for thr several rubbings. At
the end of month the meat will be
ready for smoking, or before if the
salt has all struck in and the surface
