GETTING OUT THE BODIES.

General Manager 1oucey telegraphed for
wrecking tugs almost as soon as he arrived,
and before noon two were on the river opposite
the wreck and Mt work. Men In rowboats
assisted them in their work Of searching for
the dead. for that was the task that first pre-
sented itself, and the bodies were gradually re-
covered in the afternoon and evening. The
wreckers were still at work at midnight, but
il is believed that the last of the bodies was
recovered at o'clock.

ing the distinctly milk producing form
is the one to be bred from and fostered
by the farmer who wants to make mon
ey from milk, butter, cream or cheese.
With this aim in view the governor
has been picturing in his paper cows
exhibiting more or less purely the dairy
shape, with explanatory remarks con-
corning each. One thing is certain-the
average farm man or farm woman ought
to be able to tell at glance good
dairy COW. Large milk veins and udder,
thin, fiat hind legs sloping far back
above the knee joint and forward below
a bony frame, small, thin tail and a
somewhat hollow back are the usual
characteristics of good dairy COW.
In recent number of The Dairyman
are shown pictures of several animals
belonging to a well known Ayrshire
herd The COW in Fig. / has given in a
year IA, 200 pounds of milk and made
in days 81 pounds of butter.
The COW in Fig. made record of 80
pounds of butter in seven days. This has
hardly been surpassed even by Jersey
or Guernsey. 1t is to be mentioned that
the herd to which these cows belong
has been bred and selected carefully for
years to make it produce the paying
milk and butter machines.

SMlTHFlELD HAMS.

The method employed in curing the
celebrated Snlithfield hams is as follows:
The hams are placed in large tray
of fine Liverpool salt. Then the flesh
surface is sprinkled with finely ground
crude saltpeter until the hams are as
white as though covered by moderate
frost, or, say, use three to four pounds
of the powdered saltpeter to 1000
pounds of hams.
After applying the saltpeter, immedi-
ately salt with the Liverpool fine salt,
covering we'll the entire surface. Now
pack the hams in bulk, but not on piles
more than three feet high. In ordinary
weather the hams should remain thus
for three days.
Then break bulk and resalt with the
fine salt. The hams thus salted and re-
sailed should now remain in salt in bulk
one day for each and every pound each
ham weighs-that is a two pound ham
should remain two days, and in such
proportion of time for larger and smaller
sizes.
Next you wash with tepid water un-
til the hams are thoroughly cleaned and
after partially drying rub the entire
surface with finely ground black pepper.
Now the hams should be hung up in
the smokehouse, and this important
operation be begun. The smoking should
be very gradually and slowly done, last
ing 80 or 40 days, most packers using
green hickory or rcd oak to smoke with.
After the hams are cured and smoked
they should be repeppered to guard
against yermin and then bagged These
hams improve with age and may be con-
sidered perfect at about one year old.
The conclusion naturally to be drawn
from these facts is that any ham treat
ed as these packers treat theirs would
be better than the average. The Smith
field ham, however, owes its popularity
to its peculiar flavor, and this flavor is
not due to the manner i'll which it is
cured, else any ham cured in the same
manner would rival it. It does not owe
it's favor to the manner of feeding alto
gether, else hogs from other parts of the
country could be brought here and per-
fected. The necessary things in the
opinion of the producers, as summed up
by National Proyisioner, are as follows
~ A slow growing, peculiar shaped
hog. (2) Peculiar game flavor produced
by the wild life in the woods and the
nuts berries, ETC., upon which it lives.
(3) Rapid production of flesh when the
fattening process begins. The fat form
ed of corn and pure water. az The
methods of curing and smoking.

thoroughbred and Pure Bred.

The term "thoroughbred'' is quite
generally and improperly used to desig-
nate cattle, sheep and swine that are
pedigreed and registered. The correct
term in this connection is either pure
bred or pedigreed The word Thorough
bred is the name of the breed of run
ming horses, the Oldest of all our i'm
proved breeds Of live stock, and it is
not right that its name, acknowledged
and used by stockmen the world over,
should be indiscriminately applied to
cattle, sheep and swine merely to en-
phasize the fact that they are animals
of pure breed. We have Thorough
bred horses, Clydesdale horses. Percheron
horses, Aberdeen Angus Shorthorn
and Jersey cattle, Southdown and
Shropshire sheep, Berkshire and Poland
China swine. In other words, Thorough
bred is the name of a breed just as
Shorthorn, Hereford, Aberdeen Angus,
Berkshire and Southdown are the names
of breeds. -Breeder's Gazette.

cave thigh hollows itself around to

here is conspicuous difference between
the dairy and beef types.
The last picture shows the bull at the
head of this herd He is the son of a
COW that gave IA, 800 pounds of milk in
a year.
The editor of The Dairyman makes
some pungent remarks ON the subject of
the dairy COW, which certainly travels
on her shape. He says:
When statistics show that the aver
age annual yield of milk per COW in the
United States does not exceed 5000
pounds and the average annual butter
product of such as are kept for butter
making is little if any in excess of 1876
pounds and that only about one third
of all the cows kept for dairy purposes
yield any profit whatever, who can
wonder that we are constantly preach
ing the gospel of better COWS, of cows
better adapted for dairy work, Of cows
that shall have form adapted to better
dairy performance, and to this end are
giving illustrations from photographs
to show what this form is?
There is a constant relation or CORE
spondence between form and perform
ance. Everywhere and at all times there
is law Of nature, as infexible as those
which hold the planets in their orbits,
which tends to make every living thing
whether plant or animal, take on the
form and habit most conducive to its
functions and environment. 1t may not

Markets For American Products.

The lest foreign markets for Ameri-
can products and commodities are among
those nations whose power to buy things
and pay for them has been augmented
by the use of labor saving inventions
The principal market, therefore, for
American exports, says the secretary
of agriculture in his report, is found in
the United Kingdom of Great Britain
and her colonies, which took during the
last fiscal year $511, ISL, 040 worth of
exports from the United States-that is
to say, English speaking people bought
So per cent Of all commodities and prod
ucts exported from the United States
during the fiscal year 1896. Germany,
France, Holland and Belgium purchased
during the same period of time $210, :
953, 054 worth of exports from the Unit
ed States-that is, the United Kingdom
of Great Britain and the nations enum-
Grated purchased 81.9 per cent of the
entire export output of the United States
during the fiscal year 1896.
Other nations, including the remain
der of Europe, Asia, Africa and South
America, took the balance of American
exports, which amounted to $3.50, 902. :

Tor no.. / Fed on coRN.

lean made by the different methods of
feeding. Hogs fed on corn alone, of
course. ran to fat Those receiving a
mixture of corn and cowpeas made
much lean meat and made their gain at
least expense.
Those fed ON mixture of corn and
wheat bran gave about the same lean
meat as the corn and cowpea lot, but at
a slightly greater cost for feeding. In
deciding on what to feed it would be a
question to be settled according to the
locality of the feeder, whether cowpeas
or wheat bran is the cheaper.
OF the four lots of hogs fed we give
here pictures of samples of lot No. /,
fed on corn alone, and of No 3, fed on
corn and cowpeas.
The Alabama agricultural station,
where the experiments were made, has
led the way in most useful field of in
vestigation.
In summing up results as published
in the Alabama station bulletin The
National Stockman says:
The lean meat hog is undoubtedly
gaining in favor. Consumers demand
more lean and less fat than formerly,
and slaughterers are paying more for
lightweight hogs than for those which
contain large proportion of lard. The
difference in price in western markets
between the packing hog and the lean
meat hog-at least during the winter
season when most hogs are marketed
is. hardly great enough as yet to justify
producers in discarding their present
breeding stock and their cheap corn and
producing lean meat hogs by different
system of breeding and feeding, but the
tendency is in that direction. and indi-
cations are that the premium ON the
lean meat hog will some time amply re-
pay producers for making special efforts
TO put him ON the market.
Both breeding and feeding are factors
in the problem of the lean meat hog
The experiment at the Alabama station
conducted by Professor ]. F. Duggar
was made with ~ pure bred Essex pigs,
of as near the same size and quality as
possible, divided into four lots of three
each. The pigs were all fed on corn ex-
clusively for 81 days, after which the
feed was changed and the feeding con-
tinued for Is weeks.
Lot had corn alone, lot cowpeas,
lot equal weights of corn and cow
peas, and lot equal weights of corn
and wheat bran. The corn had nutri-
tive ratio of 1 to 81, cowpeas of l to

WORTH THINKING OF.
Money Might Be Made Feeding and Fit

Money Might Be Made Feeding and Fit
ting Horses For Market.
The high prices that feeders and
stockers hold in the great markets and
in the country notwithstanding the adj
vance in the price of corn and oats
prove beyond any further reasonable
doubt the general correctness of the es-
Inmates made by the department of agri-
culture as to the shortage of cattle and
sheep in the entire nation. With stock
ers and feeders bringing the price of
the lower grades of beef cattle in the
great markets from week to week and
with advancing corn markets, the farm
er may well inquire, Will it be profit
able to feed? Were it not for the fact
that there is a general advance move
ment in all prices which justiffes be-
lief in higher priced beef cattle he might
well answer this question in the mega
tive. Many in fact will, and to these
we make suggestion: Why not feed
horses? Good horses can be bought in
many sections of the country at but a
little advance, if any, over the price of
a steer of the same age The price of
horses fit for market is already advance
ing and we believe will advance still
more rapidly during the next year. Why,
then, is there not more profit in feeding
ing any advice. We are simply making
the suggestion to farmers who think
that it will not pay to feed steers at
present prices. We simply put the ques-
ton, Will it not pay better to feed
horses? One of the great difficulties in
selling western horses is that they are
not properly fitted for the market The
eastern buyer does not want a thin
horse He wants fat oneSand for two
very good reasons - first the horse
must endure the hardships of long
journey by rail- and if he is to bring a
good price he must be in good condition
at the end of the journey, and he can
not be unless he is put in good condi-
ton before he starts. The ultimate buy
er of the horse wants him in good con-
dition. He pays more for horse in that
condition not merely because fat covers
multitude of sins, but because he is
expected to do hard work and must be
in condition at the opening of the
spring.
There is no place where horses can be
fitted SO cheaply for market as on the
western farm, where both grain and la
Dor are comparatively cheap during the
winter season. We have had no expe-
rience in fitting horses by the carload,
and hence this article is merely sug
gestive and intended to set farmers
thinking who believe that stockers and
feeders both in sheep and cattle are too
high at present prices. = Wallace's
Farmer.
