HAPPY NEW YEAR.

The Children's Friend, the official
organ of the South Dakota Children's
Home Society, published at Sioux Falls,
in its Jan uary issue says:
"Happy New Year finds rs with work
stacked up waiting for our action, with
twenty-six children 10 the house and
five or six more to come in. In the
matter Of finance we are just about fifty
per cent behind year ago. The contri-
buttons fail to reach the former amounts
even though there are possibly the same
number of items. With these facts
staring MS in the face it is safe to expect
rather a strenuous year. filed with prob
lens whose solution will tax our skill to
its limit. The loyalty of many of our
old friends is a source of much gratifica-
ton. Had these deserted the cause our
plight would have been more trying.
We need number, OF new friends, who
will gladly come forward in some help
ful way. Just now eight good homes
should receive as many splendid boys
between five and ten years, six girls be-
tween five and ten should have mothers
care as soon as possible. The babies
will no doubt soon find such home care
as their needs require. Whatever of
difficulty or anxiety may come our way,
please do not forget that business will
be carried on in the same way at the
same headquarters"
The CHRONICLE suggests that each man
and woman in the State who has past
the meridian of life send the Children's
Home 81 upon their birthday anniver-
sary. Or, if financially embarrassed, a
penny for each year of age. This is a
small sacrifice for each individual to
make for worthy cause, yet would
aggregate considerable sum. Thus
you would have the pleasure of doing
at least one noble deed during the year.

three months Of cool weather, hanging
before the warm days come. About the
right size hog is IT'S to 225 pounds, and
$50 to 100 pounds for handy.slzed
ham. You should have March OF
! April hog.
While in general light straw color
would indicate sufficient smoking, it is
always safe to try piece of thin bacon
or shoulder to be certain that the pro-
cess has been carried far enough to give
proper flavor and cure. The hams may
be kept one, two or three years without
detriment, and will improve in flavor
up to the end of at least two years. No
deterioration will take place for even
five years if ham is properly cured.
Smoking should be done slowly. 1t
should occupy four to six weeks, little
every day and with little heat. Slow
smoking gives delicate flavor. After
the smoking is finished wrap each piece
in paper, put in an unwashed -four sack
and hang in dry place.
The brine cure requires the same ma
terials, minus the pepper. When the
meat has cooled rub it with salt and let
it drain over night. Pack in a clean
barrel with the heavy pieces, hams and
shoulders at the bottom. For every 100
pounds use pounds of salt, 2 pounds of
brown sugar, and ounces of saltpeter.
Dissolve in gallons of water and cover
the meat with it. Thin sides should re-
main in this to 6 weeks and hams to
s weeks. After it has dried thoroughly
smoke as in the dry cure. Shoulders
should be cured with the hams. For
eating until June 18th they are as good
as ham, and cheaper.
How shall you determine just when
the meat has been cured? Take one of
the shoulders, saw off two or three
steaks and note the color of the lean.
If the inner muscles are turning red
tinge and the outer muscles are quite
red, the indications are that it is sutfi-
cently cured. 1t is best to fry these
steaks. If the outside is bit too salty
and the inside not salty enough, it is
time to quit curing. Hang it up for
smoking. Here are few figures show
ing what should be procured from 250-
pound hog:
35 pounds ham.
80 pounds shoulders.
25 pounds thick sides.
2l pounds thin sides.
80 pounds lard.
40 pounds spare rib, head, feet, back
bone.
Is pounds of sausage.
Even the novice ought to succeed in
curing meat when he has before him
such explicit instructions as are given
here by President Waters. 1t might not
be amiss for us to suggest that his advice
on this important topic be placed in the
scrap-book of important items, because
it is not always an easy matter to keep
the name of ingredients and their pro.
portion in mind.

THE CURING OF HOME MEAT.

President II. j. Waters of the Kansas
Agricultural College, believes that farm
ers should cure larger proportion of
the meats used in home consumption
than they have done in the past. He
thinks that this is one way of cutting
down the high cost of living. He not
only advocates this plan, but he backs
it up by giving specific instructions for
curing meat and enumerates the ingre-
dients to be used. This is his plan as
given in recent issue of the Indus
trialist:
To 1000 pounds of meat take the fol-
lowing:
40 pounds of common salt.
10 pounds New Orleans sugar.
4 pounds black pepper,
~ pounds saltpeter.
Il pound Cayenne pepper.
Weigh the meat and take such part OF
the ingredients as that is part of 1000.
Let the meat cool thoroughly. After
thoroughly mixing the Ingredients, one
Z half of the amount should be rubbed
we'll into the meat. Put the meat in a
dry, cool place. Let 1t remain two
weeks, then rub on the remainder Of the
cure and let it lie about six weeks, when
it is ready to hang. In some states the
meat may be put in a cellar, but only If
the cellar be thoroughly dry. Never
use a warm or moist place.
1t is important that the meat be well
rubbed each time the cure is applied,
and that plenty of cure be forced into
the hook end and around the joints.
Less cure should be used on the thin
sides than on the joints. The heavier
and fatter the meat, the longer time re.
quired for curing. The warmer the
weather, the quicker the meat will take
the cure. The best time to kill will be
in cool weather after December lst to
February 1st. Kill at the beginning o
the cold wave. You will produce the
finest favor If you give the meat two Oh

NEVADA PRESS COMMENT
Vagaries of Primary Election Law

Fok6ffcs " F"tosJ AtGGtfOH A>dO
The result of the amended Primary
election law as tried out in this county
on Tuesday last is far from satisfactory
to the average voter, and it is question
able whether it is really worth the tre-
mendous cost to the taxpayers of the
county. In this county there we're only
four contests. two on the Republican and
two on the Democratic ticket. The real
fight of the Primary, which had gradu-
ally developed into much bitterness of
feeling between contestants and their
friends, was waged over the nomination
for District Attorney on the Democratic
ticket. Not only the principals, but
many of their friends had been drawn
into the battle, and as a consequence
many Republicans passed mp their own
ticket In order to assist their friends,
the enemy. IL is estimated that in the
Ely precinct not less than 80 Republi.
cans lent their assistance toward set
ding the Democratic family row, which
from present indications will go on un-
ril the closing of the polls in Novem ber.
Ii has been clearly demonstrated in this
county that voters of the opposite party
can dictate the nomination of their po-
litical opponents. which certainly was
not the intent Of the law. AS a matter
of fact the Socialists had the power, and
also the right under the law to settle all
contests on both the Democratic aud Re.
publican tickets, but it can be said to
their credit that but very few of them
voted at the Primary. The fight be-
tween the Republican contestants for
short term com mmissioner also drew some
votes from the Democratic party, but
not in proportion TO the Republican vote
pulled over to the Democratic column
by the district attorney contest 1t is
probable that the Primary election cost
he State of Nevada at least $75 900, and
the proba bilities are that in every ooun-
ty in the State where there was a hot
contest, it was settled by voters from
the opposite party. All of which goes
TO show that the present Primary law
lacks much of being perfect instru-
ment.-Ely Record.
