FARMERS CURE

(By s. C. MILLER)
In these days of salt-peter. benzoate
of soda. formate and other dope
used by the big manufacturers in
the curing of nearly everything we
eat. i wonder why more of our farmers
do not preserve their own foods,
particularly meats. 1t seems to me
there is more danger in the use of
preservatives In the use of meats than
anything else, and picking of meats
on the farm is such a simple matter
that every man who kills his own pigs
should in addition to hams and bacon
put down a barrel of meat picked.
Properly cared for. 1t is delicious at
certain seasons of the year. On the
old farm In Virginia the following
method was always used. No better
meats we're ever put on the farmers
table:
For each 100 pounds of meat take
two pounds of sugar and four pounds
Of salt Mix well and when the meat
is first cut rub 1t well with pure salt
on the flesh side. Let 1t lie day or
two and then drain out any blood that
may be left. Divide the sugar and

Ministrals at Rockland.

The Commercial Club minstrels put
on their show at Roekland Tuesday
evening. Two double rigs and three
automobiles were pressed into service
in carrying the minstrels to and from
Rockland. The people seemed to enjoy
the performance, and the performers
certainly had an enjoyable time. Some
changes had to be made owing to lack
of stage facilities, but substantially the
same show was given there as here.
Some good talent was developed. The
next performance will find Brokaw adj
vanced to a position of higher honor,
and several other give evidence OF tai
ent. The performers had almost as
much enjoyment out of the performance
as the audience, which is their compen-
sation for weeks of more or less ardu-
Gus training.
