Hogs of 200 TO $50 pounds weight
are best for family use. In dressins
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 in a
cool place without freezing. good
way to keep the hams and shoulders
after being cured is to slice and fry
and pack in Jars, covering with hot
lard. Fresh pork may be kept this
way in hot weather, but 1t 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
lengthwise. 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, 8
ounces; concentrated I've, teaspoons.
Boil all together and skim. After cool
ing, pour over the meat. Leave in
brine from four to sixSweeks, then
smoke as desired The brine should
be strong enough to bear up an egg.

Care of Winter Ann1es.

Gathering and storing winter apples
is an important duty that must be at
tended to before the heavy frosts begin
in the fall. Apples that are to be kept
over winter should be carefully picked
and placed in barrels. After picking
they should be left in the open air for
some time, as this tends to thoroughly
ripen them. They also pass through a
sweat at first, and it is much better if
they can be left exposed so that all sur
face moisture is eyaporated. Fruit
should be placed in a cool, dark cellar.
In some instances where there are a
few barrels of specially good apples
the practice is adopted of wrapping
the apples in paper. This prevents
them from coming in contact with one
another and Will insure their keeping
1t usually pays to pick over apples two
or three times during the winter, so
that those showing signs of decay may
be discarded. Windfalls should never
be placed among apples that are hand
picked A plentiful supply of apples
to be used in the family during the
winter will contribute much to the
general healthfulness of every member
of the family.-Iowa Homestead.

The Farm and the Man.

How any farm should be cropped
depends upon where the farm is, its
character and location. Some farms
are by nature pasture farms, because
they are not adapted to cultivation;
other farms invite tillage. Size, too,
is a controlling factor. A crop rota-
ton and schedule of farm work that
is admirable for fifty acres may be
wholly impracticable for five hundred
or a thousand The ambition TO own
and cultivate broad acres is an Ameri-
can disease. This disease is not so
much a desire to add to worldly pos
sessions as it is for a qualification Of
the ownership of dominion; when an
alyZed it will be found to be a feature
of mans kinship with nature.
Another and the most important fac
tor of all is the man himself. The
man makes the farm good or bad, as
he makes everything else that comes
under bis control. The experience of
one farmer is invaluable to another,
but each Farm is nevertheless a separ-
ate aid local problem which the farm
er must think out and work out him

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.
A great deal of hay is sent TO mar
ket that is full of weeds. Such hay
brings the lowest price, and also indi-
Gates that the farmers who ship it are
not only careless, but also ignorant of
the true methods of farming.
The Keife. pear is one Of the best
varieties for canning, and is also hardy
and a strong grower, but the suppose
ton that it is fEee 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 A 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.
When it IS known that the olfaetc-
ries of a COW are Ten times more acute

PROVING ITS FIGURES.
Northwestern Crop Authority Gives
Data of Wheat Requirements.


Thirty-three per cent of the marketa-
BILE wheat surplus of the three States
has been sold. on the basis of 14S.OO0-
600 estimated production this year and
100000 of old wheat brought into the
crop, a total of 155.00o.000 available this
year, says the Commercial West Of Min
neapolis.
The crop last year showed 126,347 GOO
bushels received from August to August
at Minneapolis and Duluth. From that
total there had 20 be deducted 6,5000OO
bushels winter wheat. 100000 bushels
Nebraska wheat and 100000 old wheat
brought in, a total of t6.000,000 which
left the net receipts OF spring wheat
lie. 100000 bushels received from crop
of 1T5, 100000 according to the distri-
button of wheat (not four.
On the basis of 155,000.000 supply this
year. which is the estimate of this paper,
Minneapolis and Duluth viii receive net
spring wheat to next August 25,000,00O
bushels less than year ago, or $1,000
GOO, as against 100000 hast year,
leaving country mills to secure at home
the same supply of wheat this year that
they did las, which we doubt now that
they can do.
OF this S5O00.000 that Minneapolis
and Duluth are TO. receive net about 2S,-
100000 bushels has come in exclusive of
old crop and winter wheat. This is equal
to 80 per cent of what the three States
can spare above their own needs for the
twelve months ending Aug l next. This
leaves about 57,000,000 more to reach
Minneapolis and Duluth, of which Min
neapolis will need about $4,000, 900. leav-
ing 100000 for Duluth.
lii other words, whatever Duluth re-
ceives in excess of 100000 more than
she already has will be at the expense
of Minneapolis, and the latter would
have to depend on Kansas and Nebraska
and stocks in store now for the balance
of her milling supply. The amount Min
neapolis ships until next August will be
at her expense also. If this analysis is
correct in its final conclusion as to the
size of the crop, where is Minneapolis
to get the 50,000,000 to grind except as
she imports part of it from other States
