CURED GREEN CORN.
Maine Hunters Sample an Early Dutch

Because fifteen acres of sweet corn
which James Aver, a farmer of Unity,
Me, had planted for filling the farm silo
was permitted TO stand until the ears
were in the milk before cutting Miss
Mildred Aver, the farmers 16-year-old
daughter, was able to earn $225 by
husking and boiling the unripe ears and
curing them for winter use after a meth
ed practised by the early Dutch settlers
of New York.
Having husked her corn and boiled
it in the ear she cut away the fat kerr
nels with thin knife and placed the
shelled green corn on screens covered
with mosquito bar netting above the
family cook stove, where it remained I'M

shrunk more than one-half in bulk from
drying. All that remained to do was to
tie the dried corn in stout cotton bags

Owing to the fact that the Maine corn
Gamers use much sugar in putting up
their harvest hunters and tourists who
go into the woods are averse to canned
corn as q regular diet, to say nothing
about the extra weight and bulk of
the tin cans and the watery ingredients.
The old time hunters preferred the dried
corn because it was not only light and
water proof and easy to handle in toting
but 1t weighed about 20 per cent. less
than the same amount of corn in cans.

tied up and ready to be taken in canoe
or by pack horse to any place that could
be reached by man.
n year ago a party of hunters from
New York came to Maine after moose
and brought a bag of home cured corn
along, and the ancient method proved
to be so valuable in saving the bulk and
weight that other hunters resolved to
add dry corn to their supplies on future
hunting trips. Green corn that has been

Anti-Cholera Serum for Hogs.

from S1,0OO,OO0 to $5,000,0OO annuaIk
for the hog-raisers within its borders. hy
granting an appropriation of $40 900 for
the maintenance of a hog cholera serum
establishment. The professors of the
Missouri college declare that they are
now prepared to vanguish hog cholera
by incubation with serum obtained from
the blood of what they style hyper-im-
munized hogs. The process of obtaining
this serum is practically the same as
that by which the anti-toXin for DIM
liberia is secured
Hog-raising is the great subsidiary in
dustry of the corn belt, and the price of
pork fiuctuates with the price of corn
Whenever corn is plentiful and cbeaD
pork will be the same; but whenever
corn rules high in the markets, the farm
er who raises it cannot afford to con
vert it into pork, and there is a conse-
quent shortage in the supply of hogs.
This has been the experience during
the past year. The price of corn went
far above the limit of economical feed
ing for pork production, and hog-raisers
were compelled to rush their animals to
market. This caused a glut for a short
Tune, ano drop IN prices, which was
followed by corresponding rise when
the rush ceased.
These natural fluctuations of values
are not detrimental to the corn-raiser,
because what he fails to secure on his
pork he may recoup on the price of his
corn. But losses through disease are
figuratively as well as literally dead"
losses. They are sometimes very heavy
when hog cholera get a start and the
disease is therefore the dread of farm
ers and packers. The consumer is also
a sufferer when cholera rayages the
droves of the corn belt, because he is
compelled to pay higher prices for pork
as result. The serum discovery an
nounced by the Missouri College Of Az
riculture is therefore important TO him
The Aog is the worlds chief meat sup

increased demand for beef and mutton
