To Sugar Cure Pork.

Hogs OF 200 to go pounds weight
are best for family use. In DRESSING
a hog it should be so hung that it can
be split down the back, and the sides
allowed to separate the head being
cut off. The leaf and some other sur
plus fat should be removed at once.
This allows the meat to cool thorough
", and it is in good shape to handle.
The meat barrel should be kept III a
cool place without freezing. A GOOD
way to keep the hams and shoulders
after being cured is to slice and Try
ana pack in jars, covering with hot
lard. Fresh pork may be kept this
way in hot weather, but it must be
thoroughly cooked. While the cured
meat requires much less cooking to
preserve it.
Allow the hog to thoroughly cool be-
fore cutting, carefully trim hams and
shoulders and split the sides in two
Iengthwise. Sprinkle bottom Of bar
rel with fine salt, and rub each piece
Of meat with salt. Pack in barrel with
hams on the bottom, shoulders next
and sides on top. After three days
cover the meat with brine made as
follows: Water, gallons; salt. II
pounds; sugar, pounds; saltpeter, 3
ounces; concentrated I've, teaspoons.
Boil all together and skim. After cool
ing, pour over the meat. Leave in
brine from four to six weeks, then
smoke as desired. The brine should
be strong enough to bear up an egg.

Farm Notes.

The horse has a tail that should new
er be locked. The lightning rod ped
dler and the cloth peddler have tales
that should be completely and effectu-
ally locked.
The cow that gets fat is never the
best one for the dairyman. The good
dairy cow has a good appetite and eats
heavily, but her feed goes to milk rich
in butter fat instead Of to the making
of flesh
The Keifer pear is one of the best
varieties for canning, and is also hardy
and strong grower, but the SUPPOSE
ton that it is free from attacks Of
blight is not corroborated by growers.
There is no blight-proof pear.
1t is the seed that mostly exhausts
the land of plant food. grass crop
that is allowed to produce seed takes
more from the soil in mineral matter
than two crops cut for hay while the
grass is young.
If garden is made on sandy soil
especially in a section where nearly all
the soil is sandy, the use Of air-slacked
lime will be found very beneficial, as
such soils are deficient in lime. Gas
lime will not serve as a substitute for
stone lime, but shell lime is excellent,
however, though the use of stone lime
should be preferred The cost is small
compared with the benefits derived.

Yesterdays ST0CA MARKET'

Aggregate Dealings Fall to Lowest of
the Year
New York, Oct. 30.-To-day's stock
market gave striking exhibition of the
newly acquired tendency to decline to
trade in the face of unfavorable devel-
opments. Confronted with figures on
the weekly currency movement, which
indicated a loss in cash by the banks
during the week of from thirteen to fif-
teen million dollars, operators in stocks
were lacking in courage to buy. But
the offers to sell were almost unappreei-
able. AS a consequence the market fell
into actual stagnation during the AFTER
noon and the aggregate dealings for the
Gay fell to the smallest for the year.
The whole number of shares sold during
the day amounted to only 165,S00. The
days price changes were wholly with
out significance, except for the drag
ging tone in the iron and steel indus
trials and the railroad equipment
stocks, due to the unfavorable reports
regarding the trade. 1t appears from
the weekly statements secured from
Of currency by direct means has
amounted to about as much as those
through the sub-treasury. The trans
fers through the government institution
were $6,475, 900. The loss on stlb-treas-
ury operations as a whole including
payments for new gold was about ST.
100000. The failure of last weeks bank
statement to reflect the large shipments
to Baltimore and Pittsburg leaves open
tho possibility that the effect will be
thrown over into to-morrow's bank
statement. There has been no indica-
ton in the stock market of any liquida-
ton and there is a likelihood that the
November first settlement may have i'm
volved some extension of loans by the
banks. If there has in fact been any
loan contraction adequate to offset the
heavy loss in cash nothing has occurred
on the surface of events to indicate it.
The days money market was neverthe-
less tranquil and the call loan rate did
not rise above 5 per cent. The stagna-
ton of the stock market may have had
something to do with this. In the time
money market per cent. was bid for
all periods but very little was offered.
The effect of our Tightening money mar
ket passed by the cables to London this
morning and money and discount rates
hardened there. The rate for sterling
exchange steadied here this morning In
consequence but weakened again before
the close. Next Monday is holiday in
London and there will be no trading
here on election day, the day following.
Much attention was diverted to the
placing of wagers on the result of the
coming election. The threatened extern
sion of labor troubles amongst the
structural iron and steel workers was
an influence on stocks concerned in
those trades.
The recent average of activity in the
bond market was much curtailed but
the backset in prices did not extend to
the whole list, Total sales par value
$1,71C, OoC.
United States bonds were unchanged
