Cuttfng Up the Carcass.
The best meat is obtained from hogs
that are kept growing and putting on
flesh close up to killing time. The ami
NAL should not be fed for about TWEEN
ty-four hours before slaughter. When
q pig is to be killed see that the knives
are sharp and In good form and that
everything is In readiness for scraping
and hanging the carcass a cheap and
suitable scalding vat can be found in q
parafin cask, which may be set In
slanting position at the end of the
scraping table, which should be about
six feet long, two feet six inches wide
and two feet high. The water should
be at temperature OF between 18O
and 185 degrees when the hog is placed
therein. If too hot or too cold the hair
will not come off properly.
: The old fashioned plan of testing the
temperature was to pour a few drops
of the pigs blood into tle water If it
spread evenly over the surface the tenn
perature was considered right. The

fire until it is quite boiling, and then If
put into cold barrel the tempera ture
will be about right when the pig is
ready to be put into 1t. A small shovel
full Of wood ashes or a large handful of
soft soap put into the water will facili-
tate the loosening of the scurf.
After sticking or shooting the pig
wait until life is quite extinct before
putting into the water If this is not
done the blood in the capillaries Of the
skin will be CONCEALED and the skin be
Redeemed. Try the hair often to know
when sufficiently scalded. Remove the
hair from the feet and head with the
hands or with scraper-the lid of an
old coffeepot is an excellent implement
and then from the body. If properly
scalded it will come off easily. When
the hair is removed scrape the body
clean and trim it up with a sharp
knife. Hang the carcass up, wash
with hot water, then scrape, rinse with
cold water and be careful to remove
all scurf. Open the body, put the in
festines down and separate the con-
nections near the kidneys, leaving the

A HOMEMADE SLEIGH.

It Can he Constructed nj Small Ex-
Dense and Answers Wei.
In some parts Of the country there is
seldom sufficient snow to justify the
average farmer in buying and keeping
a high priced sleigh. Yet when there
does come sleighing. il it is only for a
few days. he needs one, or at least his
boys do, and then it is too late to buy,
even II he SO desired, as every sleigh
is in use. In view OF this, a Farm,
Field and Fireside correspondent tells
the boys how to make one themselves
at little expense.
The first cut shows homemade
sleigh constructed in the farm work

SMALL ICE HOUSE COMPLETE.

venient size for an ordinary farm. In
building care should be taken to secure
perfect drainage. The foundation
should be dug eighteen to twenty four
inches or until gravel is reached. Where
this is not possible the lower two feet
should be filled in with large stones,
on top Of which are placed smaller
stones and gravel, until smooth bot
tom is obtained.
For house twelve feet square
frame Of s by 8 inch timbers is placed
on the brick or stone Foundation for
the base. A similar square frame is
made for the plates, and this is sup
ported at the four corners with 8 by 8
inch posts eight feet long and by two
or three 2 by inch studs on each
side, with extra ones for door posts on
the front side. The outside is covered
with rough pine boards, the cracks be-
tween the boards being covered with
battens. Inch boards line the inside
up to the plates, and the space be-
tween is filed in with sawdust The
cheapest form of roof is made Of inch
boards, with batten pieces over the
cracks, and is supported by three hori-
zontal strips on each side laid across
rafters. The rafters are scantling bev-
eled and nailed together at the top and
set into or spiked to the plates. Half
to two-thirds Of the middle of the ridge
Is cut out, leaving an opening three to
five inches wide, which is covered by q
cap raised several inches from the
roof to permit Of ventilation, but wide
enough to prevent rain getting in.
The doors are made of single thick
ness of boards. Care should be taken
to have them tight so as not to permit
OF circulation of air. To make them
more effective the space between the
door and the boards placed on the in
side of the door frame to prevent saw
dust or other packing material used
from falling out can be padded with
straw when the house is filed The ex-

The Tide Toward New England.
AT the Massachusetts agricultural
board meeting DR.. G. NJ Twitchell pre-
sented very cheerful view Of agricul-
tural prospects. He believes that ssthe
outlook for New England agriculture
must be positive. Here are the mar
kets, here the industries are multiply
ing rapidly, here is to be the great dis
tributing center for manufactured
products, here are the acres which will
yield larger crops than prairie or plan
tation, and here climate adapted to
the growing of vast variety of food
for man and beast of quality unex-
eelled upon the face of the earth. In
the constructive work for a more ag-
gressive agriculture the student, pro-
fessor and worker have before them
the greatest opportunity of their lives.
The conditions are favorable, the times
are suspicious, the tide is setting to-
ward New England, and the currents

International Live Stock Show.
The handsome steer Silver Crown,
fed and exhibited by the Iowa Agricul-

ShOrthorn class of fat cattle at the re-
cent Chicago live stock exposition.
Challenger, the champion fat steer Of
1908 at the recent international show,

ing, one-fourth Holstein, one-fourth
Shorthorn and one-half Hereford.

before been equaled.
Good authorities say that some of the
best stock ever seen on this continent
was exhibited at the international.
There was a fine showing of regis

the latter.

What Bacteria Are.

Bacteria are plants. Although they
were formerly classed as animals, it is
now universally conceded that they are
plants. They are single celled and of
simple structure, being composed al
most entirely of protoplasm. They diff
fer from higher plants in that they con-
tain no chlorophyi (green coloring mat
teri. They resemble more closely the
yeasts and molds There are many diff
ferent varieties Of bacteria. About 200
different kinds have been isolated and
studied, and new varieties are being
found every day. Bacteria are very
small, being invisible to the naked eye.
It would take about 10000 average siz-
ed bacteria placed end to end to make
an inch in length, or it would take
about 100000 In cube to make a
mass large enough to be seen with the
unaided eye.-Mayo and Kinsley.
