Sugar Cured Pork.

The sugar cured hams and
shoulders, for every eight pounds
of hams or shoulders use three
ounces of saltpeter, seven ounces
of brown sugar, one pint OF tine
salt. Mix all three thoroughly
and rub on outside Of meat same day
it was butchered. Lay meat Oh i'll
clined surface for twentyfour hours
to drain, where it can not freeze.
Then rub two quarts OF salt on the
eighty pounds. Let it lay for four
teen days on incline surface, 50 the
melting brine will not stand on the
meat.
Hang up and dry, smoke, then
pack for the summer. A broad
board or swinging SHELF in the eel
lar, with one end raised and a tub
or bucket to catch the drip, is
best place to keep the meat III the
north in this climate it will not
freeze in the smokehouse. Perhaps
as good a way as any to keep 1t
over the summer is to put each
piece of -four sack, or a bag made
for the purpose, and stuff all around
the meat carefully with clean hay
or straw, so that the meat III no
places touches the bag. This will
keep any inquisitiye fly from reach
ing the meat, and also supplies
ventilation and prevents moldlng.
Sugar cured bacon can be pre-
pared in the same way as hams ana
shoulders, by using about ninety
pounds of side meat, cut III strips
for the same amount of saltpe ter,
sugar and salt. Bacon prepared
in this way is superior to the expen-
sive sugar cured breakfast bacon on
the market.

SHOULD BE SWEETENEp.

A friend who has put in 1900 rods
of tile and plans to put in still more
has asked for sure way of telling
whether such land is acid or sour.
While this sour condition of soil is
often indicated by the failure Of the
tract to grow clover and its tendency
to grow the sorrels, better way is
to test the soil with blue litmus paper.
which can be got from or through
most any druggist. Pieces Of this
paper cut Q by inches should be in
serted into the soil in representative
spots to a depth of five or six inches
in spade cuts, each place where a
piece is placed being marked with a
stick. After remaining in the soil
three or four hours they should be ex-
amined. If the test papers have turn
ed red or red in spots the proof is con-
elusive that the soil is sour and that
before it will give satisfactory results
In crop production it must be sweet
ened with an alkal, which is con-
tanned in limited quantities in stable
manure, but much more plentifully in
common lime. which may be applied
in the finely ground raw stone form
or in the shape Of slaked lime. If
plenty of manure is available, both
it and lime lat the rate Of two to three
tons per acre. may be put on the land
at the same time.

SOME POST FIGURES.

The United States department Of
agriculture has recently been collect
Ing some intcrcsiiu@ statistics on posts
the cost. durability and use of them.
Iowa was selected as an average agri-
cultural state, ana the data presented
is the result Of Inquiries sent TO Il
great many lIaWkcEp farmers. 1t is
estimated that about lo,00OOOO posts
are used annually m the building and
repairing of the fences on the 2O9, lG3
farms of the state, which have an av-
eragc size uf Isl. acres The replies
received indicated that about 10 per
cent Of the posts used Were home
grown or produced and that only 80
per cent were bought of lumber deaf
ers. The average life of the posts in
the state WAS given rs fourteen years
ana their average cost as 1871 cents.
From the standpoint of durability
alone the post material used ranked
as follows: Usage orange, red cedar,
locust. white oak. arbor vitae, catal pa.
black walnut, butternut red oak and
willow. IN the matter OF cost alone
the red cedar post heads the list at
1854 cents, while willow IS the cheap
est at 6 cents. When the two factors
of both durability and cost are taken
into account the post material ranEs as
follows, the first named being the
most cconomical: Usage orange, white
oak, locust, catalpa. red cedar, black
walnut, butteinut, willow, white cedar
and red oak. Experiments made along
the line of Giving posts preSeryative

PRESERVE OREGON,S
GREAT CAVES

Oregon will shortly exploit its
great caves in Josephine County
which have recently been set aside
as a national reservation. More
over the Government will place
these caves in charge of caretaker
who will put a stop to the practlc c
of careless tourists who invade the
caves and destroy the beauty OF
the rock formations in their search
for Curios. These caves are said
to be far superior to the Mammoth
Cave in Kentucky.

is 1T TOO STRONC?

Henry Wallace. Il leading and highly
respected Iowa agricultural editor and
authority, Il member of the Roosevelt
country life commission and lately
lchosen president of the National Con
lservation association, recently made
1.-THE statement in Il public rate hearing
THAT the average quarter section farm
devoted TO grain raising Is robbed on
Ian average of S46I annually and that
the owner is in reality that much
Ipoorer as q result of the seasons Oper
ations. Men who are wont to go into
ecstasies over the ineXhaustible fertil-
ity Of American farms have criticised
rather sharply or poked ridiculc at Mr..
Wallacc's assertion. when the likeli-
hood is that if he erred on either side
In the statement made 1t was that OF
conservatism This law of the impov-
eriShment of fertility as Il result Of the
continued practice of raising grain
crops and selling them in the raw state
Is Just as memorable and binding as
the law of the Modes and Pcrsians or
the law of gravity. and by no POSSIBLE
ity can it be abrogated by published
statements by the thOughtless that it
has no binding force. Better far would
it be if all who are interested in the
fertility and cultivation Of the soil
should give serious heed to the warn
ing referred to and so modify their
oDeratons as to conserve its fertility
instead of wasting it heedlessly.

A RANK INJUSTICE.

In spite OF the fact that the average
man you may talk with who has no
money in the bank will say that the
exemption of mortgages and similar
forms of credit from taxation is Il
favoritiSm to the wealthy, the fact
remains that the system of taxing
credits is itself rank injustice, and
this because it involves double taxa
ton and throws n burden in the end
not upon the man of wealth who has
money to lend, but upon the poorer
man trying to get ahead who must
borrow. To cite IL concrete illustra
ton Of the injustice to which we refer
lets say that here is a young fellow
who wants to buy an eighty acre farm
at 800 per acre He has $1,000 Of his
own money saved up and gives mort
gage for the balance, $4,000. When
the assessor comes around he assesses
the land, as he ought to do. Before
long he gets around TO the man who
sold the farm and in reality he pro-
ceeds to assess the farm again when
he lists that $4,000 mortgage. The up
SnOC OF the DuSlueSS II tiidt II uttie
later tax is paid on the basis of $14.-
600 worth Of property when the best
mathematician one can find can only
figure out $4,000 worth, which was
the value and sale price of the eighty
acres. In conclusion it is well to re-
peat in substance what was said at
the beginning of the paragraph-name-
ly, that there is injustice in any sys-
TEN of taxation which makes this two
fold levy possible and that the injus-
tice is borne largely by the borrower,
who, because of the fact that the mort
gage is taxed, is compelled to pay an
added interest rate which will cover
the sum paid by the mortgagor in the
shape Of taxes.
