meat goes through the grinder the

Jumps and strings. To twenty-five
pounds of meat (one-third fat, the
rest lean) add one gill black pepper
nearly a pint of fine salt, and two
gills beaten or ground sage. A little
ground ginger added, it is said
will aid in its digestion. This meat
may be Ceased" and smoked if de-
sired; or it may be partially cooked
and covered, in a jar, with melted
lard and kept for several months.
provided the air is kept from the
meat. A little red pepper is demand
ed by some tastes.
Sausage.-(2) Twelve pounds of
lean and six pounds of fat FORK; ten
tablespoonful of powdered sage; six
tablespoonful black pepper; same of
fine salt; two tablespoonfuls powder
ed mace; same of cloves, and me
grated nutmeg. Grind and mix as
above. This is a rich, highly season
ed sausage, especially suited to fam
lily use. A teaspoonful of ground
red pepper is added by some mixers
in all sausage.
Souse.-This is made of the head,
ears and feet. Clean them thorough
ly. Boil in sailed water until per-
tender. Strip the meat from
the bones and chop fine; season with
salt, pepper, sage, sweet marjoram,
a little cloves and half a cup or more
of strong apDle vinegar. Mix all
thoroughly together and mould in
bowls or shallow jars. To keep for
several weeks, take the meat from the
moulds and immerse in strong vine
gar.
The hooks above alluded to may
be added to the above, or they may
be picked with the feet for future
use or for sale.
This brings me to the main sub
ject of making bacon for the mar
ket. In order to make clear the best
form for cutting the meat, the cuts
below are inserted.

Cooper Curtice and myself. I an
glad to do so for several reasons
which may be defined CD as q
desire on my part to do all I can to
aid the farmer in receiving the
highest prices for his products
through any channel open for the
purpose, and (2) to give expression
incidentally to my views on some
practices in connection with fresh
meats which are wrong, and which
result in flooding the marts with the
viands which are decidedly unwhole-
some, if not deleterious to health.
SAUSAGE, soUsE AND HEAD CHEESE
This matter might as we'll be stated
at once since it is intended to bring
before the home-producer the Possi-
bilities incident to 'hog killing" time
in the utilization of the fresh meats
which are not to be cured into bacon.
l refer to sausage, and head
cheese. These articles are supplied
now to the city markets by packing
houses and distant makers, under
various names. The materials sup
piled are put into nice marketable
form and look well for the part they
are to play. They are not genuine,
but are a poor substitute made for
"~sale," rather than to eat, and with
but little regard for what goes into !
the making. In sausage, for in
stance, when say five hundred pounds
r to be made, the formula would
be something like this: Two hun
dred pounds of scrap pork (mostly
unfit for lard) and beef neck; two
hundred pounds of dry potato meal
and one hundred pounds of water;
a little salt and black pepper, and
the whole treated literally with a
preservative to prevent fermenta-
ton. This ~preservative may be
b~oraxine, or formaldehyde, or some
other of the preparations so COM
monty used in these days. Sausage
of this character sells at from Is to
221a cents a pound; is devoid of
flavor, and altogether unsatisfactory.
The same conditions, so far as pre-
servatives are concerned, prevail with
head cheese and brains, to say moth
ing of the processing" of the hams
and bacon.
These facts open the way for the
farmer with his pure, homemade
products; the prices are sufficient to
LAY for good wholesome food, and if
those who supply the butcher and the
grocer will not give honest goods
for honest money, then let the neigh
boring farmers supply the towns and
villages. He makes for his family
consumption the best of these viands,
and at the prevailing prices, can well
afford to properly trim his joints for
curing and make up the residure
into lard and sausage.

What She Had Forgotten

Mrs. Paul had been married many
years and was the mother of several
children, but she conscientiously be-
lieved, perhaps because of her south
ern birth, that her position as the
wife of Mr.. Paul would not permit her
ever to work in the kitchen. So when
the cook recently took French leave
the delicatessen stores were requisi-
toned for the family meals. For a
week the family ate nothing but en-
balmed meat and canned fruit and
vegetables. Mr.. Paul bore it patiently.
The only thing at which he was in
clined to growl was the absence of
his coffee at breakfast and bis demi-
tasse after dinner.
When the week had expired and
still no cook was in prospect. Mrs.
Paul, seeing that her husband really
was suffering Tor his coffee, took
compassion on him. One night as the
family was finishing it's cold repast
she announced with a beaming smile
to Mr.. Paul that she had a surprise
for him. She arose, went to the kitch-
en- and returned with a steaming hot
coffee pot.
"Now, my DEAR" she said, you are
going to have the best cup OF coffee

That appearances are often deceit
full was made painfully apparent to a
cousin of mine the other day. She
was asked to help herself literally
from a box OF extra fine chocolates,
because the youngest daughter of the
house where she was visiting was
partaking of the CONNECTIONS to an
extent that threatened TO make her
i'll. The guest was fond of sweets
and was nothing loath to accept tie
invitation. She ate several pieces
with great gusto, but finally said:
What curious taste this choco-
late has that l have just put in my
mouth. I never met with such a
flavor before. 1t must be some new

"Hurrah!" cried Mr.. Paul, and in
his eagerness he seized the pot and
poured himself out a cup. AS the
liquid descended, however, he looked
puzzled. Tentatively he took a sip,
and then set the cup down with a
frown. Instantly Mrs. Paul demanded
to know what was the matter.

Paul, but it seems to taste a little
queer-to be little weak, don't you
know"

Paul, almost ready to cry, that l fol-
lowed the directions. l let the water
come to a boil and beat up the egg
and poured it in, just as the book
said.
Mr.. Paul raised the lid of the pot
and examined it's contents critically.
Then said he:

did all that you say. There seems to
be only one thing that you didn't do
what is that?" asked Mrs. Paul,
impatiently.

Oceans, like continents, have their
deserts. On the high seas there are
vast spaces whose waves have never
been parted by the Prov of sailing
vessel or dashed by the propeller of a
steamer; immense solitudes where the
flap of a sail Is never heard nor the
strident cry of siren; veritable des-
erts, whose silence is broken only
by the bowling of the wind and the
roar of the waves which have been
vainly pursuing one another since the
day OF creation.
| These deserts lie forgotten betwixt
the narrow ocean highways travelled
by vessels. In such waste places of
the sea a disabled ship, driven out of
its course by a hurricane, may drift
for months, tossed by the ceaseless
ground swell, without being able to
hail assistance; her only chance of
escape is the possibility that some
oceanic current may drag her into a.
more frequent region.
The gradual but constant disappear.
ance of Sailing ships made the ocean
more of desert than before. Sailing
vessels hid their established routes in
accordance with winds, currents and
seasons; the gaps between the routes
taken by outward.bound and home
ward-bound ships were often consid-
cradle; moreover, the capricious ele-
ments not infrequentIy played the mis-
chief with nautical instructions, and,
as a result, the field Of operations for
ocean shipping was vastly expanded.
This is no longer true to-day. The
liner goes straight ahead, in defiance
of wind and wave; the ports between
which she plies are great industrial
or commercial centers, whittier come
numberIess railways, serving as pro-
