Is true especially of ham and side bacon for
family use. When meats are intended TO keep
all Summer, they must, Of course, be penetrHt-
ed by salt, ana we'll smoked; but for Winter

farmers have the art of doing this great deal
better than we. In many cases the bacon is
only two days in the pickle, then dryed Tor

face we'll. Such bacon Is adapted to frying,
not to boiling. For boiling, longer sailing is
necessary and as a rule dry salted hams are
preferred. They are easily over-saltcd, how
do the work we'll. The famous Irish bacon Is
cured by rubbing In salt, or laying 1t short
time in pickle, and not smoked at all, but
simply dried in cool weather in dry atmos-
phcre. Sometimes 1t Is smoked for few
hours, Just to give 1t a fine color. When cook
ed, it Is sliced thin and fried, and Is crisp and
delicious beyond anything we commonly get.
Great quantities Of choice. hams are shipped
from this country to Great Britain. and as We
just as weak brine as experience has shown
will keep them from tainting on the voyage.
On arrival, the casks are opened. and the hams
thrown to soak in great vat. When the salt
Is sufficiently drawn from the surface. they
are taken out and beaten up into their origi-
nal form, then the trimmers take Oft shaw

neglect.
Some women have better Judgment and
better business capacity thun others; some
have :astc for needle work, music and art
and no inclination for the drudgery OF dolnes-

profit In literature, and, of course, their tastes

charge, either through her pcnsonal effort, -or

fails in this, she fli!s in the highest and best
mission of her life, and brings dlsappoint-
ment and Il degree Of dissatisfaction.
Not only In the services that are sometimes

kept in such beautiful order that Others OF
less taste and ability wonder at such display

keeper is the one possessing the most utility

however neat and ornamental the furniture,

Farmers Dis2osins of their Cotton

It looks like poor business Indeed when we
see a farmer hauling his cotton seed to town
and selling them, and every good farmer III
the county will join in with us in saying SO.
The farmer who sells his cotton seed Is evil
IDENTIFY not success at planting, and by thus
dispoSlng OF the best fertilizer that can be OBJ
tained anywhere he is making himself poorer
every year AT least Il half dozen OF the best
and most successful farmers in this county
have told us that they would not sell their
cotton seed for twenty-five cents per DuShei,
as they were worth more than that 10 put PACK
upon the land as u fertilizer, and yet those
who do sell them only get about sixteen Genus

turer of the oil and TO the employees in the
establishment, but they are anything else 10
the farmers. 1t may be true that COTTON sceu
meal is good fertilizer, but the farmer VINO
sells his cotton seed at sl2 or so per ION au IL

cotton gathered from an acre planted IN cot

fertility each year, until it becomes 2s rlch q

not only 4 theoretical re ark, but IL IS q tact
that can be demonstrated by any farmer VINO

We do not think that any farmer ought, to

money at both ends of their transaction, and
the farmer loses at both ends-gives Two 1o,

Winter Care of Bees.

Destroying Cut Worms.
t,Sout1e71l CultiuatOr.l

Your correspondent, "F. r. H." Browns
willie, Tenn. in your November number,
among other inquiries, asks: us salt soWn on
cabbage land in the fail sure preventive Of
the cut worrn?" and by your permission
will give him, and Others desiring the same
Information. through your columns, the ben.
eft of my experience with the cut worm and
salt.
About four years ago had about ten acres
Of cabbages, /. e., cabbage plants put outin
the field where expected them to make cab
b#sc. The cut worms cut them down about
as f,st as could put them out. thought for
a while that the cheaper way to grt rid of the
worms would be to kill them by Kindness by
putting out plants as fast as they could cut
them down until their lives would be run OUT,
and SO put out plants as fast as they were
cut down, until every standing, plant repre-
sented not less than five that had been put
out. The season Icing wrl-nigh spent In
which plants could be put out with any GER
tainty OF their maturity in time for market, l
concluded that could not rely longer on the
"replacing' system. but must eXterminate
the cut WORLDS or would make no cabbages
on that land, and so employed ten hands TO to
with sharp sticks about six inches long and
sharp as the point OF pen-knilc-a blunt one
will not find half the worms-and put them
to hunting worms early in the morning, and
the first day they gathered about half a BUSH
Ell, which, to make sure of their destruction.
after applying salt literally to them without
any pcrceptible damage or Inconvenience TO
t;on Of unslaked lime till tHey were roasted to
Il cracking, and then buried them two feet
deep so that nothing short Of Gabriel'S trun-
pet can reSurrect them, If that can. This pro-
cess followed up three days, each day get
ting fewer than the proceeding one, till the
last day when got about two quarts Since
that time have not been troubled with the
cut worm.
My experience with the cut worm extended
through the salt process. When was gather
ing cut worms by the half bushel literally
covered them with salt in the hope that 1t
would kill them, or ut least punish them n IT.
tie, but 1t did not seem to hurt them in the
least. Nothing seems TO hurt them but Gre
mation.
And to see what effect salt would have on
cabbage plants, covered the ground about a
quarter OF an inch deep for about foot IN
diameter around two plants and next morn
ing one of the plants, having leaf or two cut
Off by cut worm, hunted him up and found
him comfortably curcd up. fast asleep in the
SAT-; and the nGxtday, finding the other plant
with several leaves cut of, l examined the
cause and found two fat cut worms comfnrta-
bly, cured up in the salt, as If they were EN-
joying life fincly,as no doubt they. were. It
seemed that they were attracted by the, salt
instead of being destroyed by it, From these
experiments am left 10 the conclusion that
