PRESERVING SHINGLES ON ROOFS.

The following article we copy from
The Rural Intelligencer, as worthy of
attention by those who desire to pre-
serve the roofs of their habitations
and buildings:
Some paint rooi-singles after they
are laid. This makes them rot sooner
than they otherwise would. Some
paint the courses as they are laid !;
this is great preservative, if each
shingle is painted the length of three
courses. But about as sure way to
preserve shingles, and that with little
or no expense, is mode represented
in a letter to US by Hon. David Hunter,
of Clinton, on the 23d of February last.
We republish as much of his letter as
relates to this subject, in hopes that it
may he of service to many of our read
ers: "There is one thing more that
nearly all people know, if they would
only attend to it; that is sprinkle
slaked lime on the roofs of their build
ings in rainy days. Put it on consider
ably thick, so as to make the roof look
white and you. never will be troubled
with moss, by putting the lime on
twice, it will take all the moss off and
leave the roof white and clean, and
it will look almost as well as if it had
been painted. 1t ought to be done at
least once a year, and in my opinion,
the shingles will last almost twice as
long as they will to let the roof grow
: all over to moss. I tried it on the
back side of my house, 10 years ago,
when the shingles were all covered
over with moss, and they appeared to
be nearly rotten. I gave the roof
heavy coat of lime, aud have followed
it nearly every year since then, and
the roofis better now than it was then
and, to all appearances, if follow my
plan, it will last 10 or Is years longer.
The shingles have been on the roof
over 80 years.. There is no more risk
about sparks catching on the roof than
on a newly shingled roof. Those that
do not have lime near by, can use
good strong wood ashes, and these
will answer good purpose to the
same end

SAVING BEEF.

send you recipe for saving beef
during the summer season, which l
think is of vast Importance to the
South, as we can raise cattle with but
little trouble, and by this process can
save the largest OK in midsummer for
any length of time. l put up for my
own family one-quarter to one-half
beef weekly, and have not lost any
in the past three months. l do not
claim anything for myself except the
application, and my object is to give
my experience to others that they
may be benefited.
Recipe.-For 100 pounds of beef,
take five pounds Of fine salt, two
ounces of satpetre, and two ounces of
good molasses.
Directions.-Cut your beef in con-
venient pieces, taking out the marrow
bones. Incorporate the salt and salt
pevre together on board or table.
Take the beef, piece by piece, and rub
the salt we'll into the flesh. Then have
q cask of convenient size, prepared in
the following manner: wash II well IN
the inside, then smoke it for ten or tif-
teen minutes with corn shucks or cobs,
or anything that will make dense
smoke, (do not burn the cask, let it
cool for few minutes, then put the
beef in in layers as close as possible,
pouring the molasses over each layer.
When all is thus placed in the cask
put a cover on top. with sufficient
weight to keep the meat down, and in
the course of six or ten hours the meat
will be covered with brine. Use no
water. When thus prepared, you can
use it as steaks or roasts as you desire,
as there is no more salt in it than will
make it palatable.

ARE YOU
A THINKING
MAN Z?

OR do you let somebody else do your
~ studying. If you are thinker we
want you to consider few points which
we will submit. Here they are: Can
YOU afford to go on from day to day,
week to week and year to year without
throwing around your wife, children or
those dependent upon you, that iron clad
protection which is absolutely guaran-
teed to them by policy i'll Il first-class
life insurance company? If you decide
that you cannot ignore life insurance, are
you using the same business sense that
characterizes your daily business transac-
tiOns if you place your insurance with
company that charges you twice as much
for your protection as it is worth, or as
another company equally as reliable will
furnish it for? The MUTUAL RESERVE
FUND LIFE ASSOCIATION, of New York,
has been in business about ID years and
during that time has paid more than
S22, ,OOO, 900 to the benetciaries of de-
ceased policy holders. 1t has in force
TODAY as much insurance as the TIL REE
STONG EST old line companies had when
they had reached the same age, and some
thing like $50, ,0OO,0 900 to spare.
It has more assets, as compared
to liabilities than any company In
the world.
1t has paid every honest death claim
that has been presented, in full, and hes
never taken advantage Of Il technicality,
as other companies often do. Now fora
practical illustration: Say you are 43
years of age: 4 5000 life policy (pay as
long ny you live in the Insurance
Company, of New York, will cost you
$3.50. 80 annually or $500 in twenty years,
if you live that long. in cold cash, not
counting interest: The sane size policy
in the MUTUAL RESERVE, will cost
you $s6. 10 annually, or Sl.722 in twenty
years. We will be pleased to explain our
system to, you and also to co. convince vince you yI!
any agent of any old line company doing
business in this section about the Mutual
Reserve, is absolutely false and is inspired
by his desire to sell you something you
