Curing Hams and Bacon.

The following information as to the
most improved method of curing cams
and bacon, which we clip from one of
our exchanges, may prove of value to
those of our readers who are blessed with
the notorious razor back, or. still better,
the half breed article. The exchange
says:
The hog is cut as shown in the dia
gram, the shoulder No. 1. The ham
mo. p is cut through the bone short
distance from hip to joint, and this piece
of bone is left in the meat. The small
piece (No. - is kept for boiling and is
sailed; so is No. 7. Nos. 4, 5 and are
roasting pieces, eaten fresh, or the ribs
are taken out, and the whole, including
No. s, may be cured for bacon. Nos. 4,
and 6 may be sailed for frying wet
out of the pickle; then No. makes the
best of breakfast bacon. Split the head
down the face and save for sailing and
smoking. Boil the rest of the head with
the ears and feet and trimmings Of the
hams and make head cheese.
The next process is the sailing. Use
an oblong box Of suitable size Or pork
barrel. The hams and bacon require a
tray or box. Rub the hams and bacon
with the following mixture we'll before

putting it in pickle: Half pound of
saltpeter pulverized very fine divided
equally-half for two hams and half for
two sides. The saltpeter is to be we'll
rubbed into the meat on the flesh sides.
The meat is then laid on bench, skin
down, for 10 hours. Take pounds of
salt and l p pounds brown sugar, we'll
mixed and heated, and rub while hot
upon the two sides Of the meat. The
meat is th'n put in the tray, and the
brine begins to form. Rub and haste the
meat every other day, putting the bot
tom pieces on top, for four weeks, when
the meat is hung up to dry, and then
smoked.
For the hams use pounds Of salt, II
pounds of sugar, and treat in the same
way. The hams should be in the pickle
five weeks. This curing is important.
The meat is not smoked until quite dry
and the salt crystallized upon the sur
face. Use for smoking damp wheat
straw, corncobs or small brush. Smoke
little every day until completely dry
and produce no heat in smoking Some
smoke for two or three months, but when
perfectly dry less time is sufficient Pro-
cure from your druggist pint of pyro-
igneous acid. the acid from an oak tree,
and paint your meat with a shaving
brush thoroughly with this acid, and
hang your meat in cool place. The
foregoing is given by an exchange as the
English mode, and it is claimed that
meat cured by this process will keep
sound and sweet.
