1t has been apparent that the inoc-

it was applied to the uninoculated, per

Way TO Save Meat When
Weather IS Warm
May be Oi much value to farmers during this
winter.

A great many farmers are com
planning Of having lost their meat
this year due to changes in the
weather. Many Of those who used
ice to keep it declare that they did
not succeed, That was probably
because they did not know how To
use the ice.
We have heard Of number Of
farmers breaking up ice and put
ting it upon their meat, almost as
they would scatter salt over it.
That is about as bad us not to use
the ice at all. We have also heard
Of many farmers who have placed
a whole block Of ice on their meat,
That was still worse, as the mois-
arr from the melting ice will cause
he meat to spoil.
Every farmer knows that meat
ought to be cured dry--0r as dry
IS possible. Moisture contributes
more than anything else to the
spelling Of fresh meat. The cold
forage plants save the meat be-
,ause they are able to chill it
through and through without al
owing the moisture to reach it. II
farmer is able to have a large re-
'rigerator or a cold storage room,
le can save his meat as well as it
can be saved in the large packing
olants. But many farmers are not
tble to have such modern equip
nent They are not able to have
/ and they do not Kill enough
neat to make it pay them
Now, we are going to tell the
armers how to save their meat
Without losing any Of it and at a
comparatively small cost by using
ice. Two blocks Of ice will save
1000 pounds of meat il properly
lsed. Here is the way TO use it,:
Stand 2 blocks Of ice on their ends
"a the center of the smoke house,
on the dirt floor. Drive a scant-
ling, or plank, into the ground on
each side Of the ice, SO as to keen
1.-The ice from topping over as il
neHs. IT would be we'll to use q
liece Of wire and tie around the
braces in order to keep them Sc
nre. Then get some green pine
tops and place them around the
ice to place the meat upon, in or
der to keep it off tile ground and
llso to give it ventilation from be-
ow.. Then lay the pieces Of meat
lose as possible, placing the bone
parts next to the ice. Care should
be taken to make the piles If meat
uniform. As the ice melts it leaves
spaces between it and the meat,
thus leaving the meat dry and also
caves spac Tor the gases
md vapors to pass away. The
one parts of meat are the first to
soil, so the bone parts should be
5ept next to the ice. Where it is
oossible, the meat ought to be
lied SO that there will be some
race between the tiers for yentila-
lion. It. can be piled up higher
than the blocks Of ice and then
piled above the ice, 50 that the two
blocks of ice will keep 2, 900 pounds
Of meat for several weeks. If the
house is kept close and FREQ from
outside air it viii b much better.

TIE INCOME TAX.

Though it required three and half years to secure the ratification of the income tax by the states of the union, 1t Is now, or will be as soon as the necessary details are completed, the sixteenth amendment to the constitu- tion of the United States. This is the resumption of an old form of taxa ton and means the bringing in to the government for the operation of its departments at least $100.00O, 900. To the south and west goes the distinc- ton of contributing the largest sup port to the ratification of the meas ure, the east showing much opposition thereto both by delayed action and refusal to ratify.
 Congress is now given the power to tax incomes and likewise the fixing of the rate of taxation and the determin- aticn of what incomes shall be subject to-the tax. All states must share alike in meeting the tax, for the law will apply wherever incomes, earned or un- earned, reach or exceed the limit, which congress must establish. It has an important duty before it. It must proceed carefully and advisedly in de- termining the details Of the bill and working ont q. proper adjustment of the provisions Though it has the opportunity of shifting to the shoul- ders of the wealthy, a portion of the burden of taxation, yet it must be done with a proper regard as to Limitations and to the results which it is desired to obtain.

in it. Many other growers find it easy and very difficult to prevent injury by birds, the latter being protected by law
 Certain agitators claim our native insectivorous birds are fast approach ing extinction that they are being slaughtered by millions by men and boys. It is not true. Nearly all states forbid the killing of any song or insec- tivefous bird other than game These small birds are not worth the price of a loaded shell. They are not being kill ed in numbers worth mention north of the Gulf states, and in killing robins our southern cousins are doing their northern fruit-growing fellows a great kindness In spite of this killing have seen fully 200 robins on a single acre of my land a dozen miles north of the Rose of New England. I have seen the ground under trees where robins roost- ed nearly covered with seeds of grapes they had eaten.

MORE WAR.

l With 8 determination which could not be broken down on either side. 1t was with the hope that some outside element would enter to putaan end to ! the struggle that Balkan and Turkish forces resumed the war. Great have ! been the losses and equally so have been the financial burdens taken on
 because of the war, by all those en- gagged therein. The allies were fully justified in claiming what they did, but Turkey prefers carnage to yielding and making such important conces- sions as Adrianop1e and the Aegean islands involve.
 The peace negotiations failed. The attitude of Turkey is well outlined by the Providence Bulletin when it says: Turkey seems to have been at some pains to put the onus of the resump- ton of the war on the allies, by orders to the plenipotentiaries to stay in Lon don and to the army to remain passive
 until the Balkan allies had fired the first shot. It may be imagined, how
 ever. that the allies are entirely wi1l- ing to assume responsibility before the
 world for the ending Of the armistfce.
 It is an issue concerning which the
 Christian world avplauds the allies.
 The Turks showed no desire to avert
 or delay the opening of the war in the
 first instance: they had long refused
 to take any steps in good faith that
 would have averted the contest, and,
 in fact, began the hostilities. as their answer to the demand for reforms"
 The situation sees Turkey appeal
 ing for sympathy and intervention. but
 without action or reason which would
 entit1e her to such consideration.

 Lent is the preparation for Easter, fasting period ending with one of the most joyous events of the year, worth ali the self control and secri- fees which have been practfced in reaching it. Easter this year comes on March 23. or next to the earliest day on which it can fail. It seldom comes as early as it will this year and could never come but one day earlier Only once in twelve cycles of the moon from the years 17S6 to 2013 does 1t come on the 22nd and but three times on the 23rd- Coming it does this year advances it greatly as to weather con- ditions and though 1t seldom happens, lent this year is due to come in the winter, or all of it that 1913 is scheduled to see.

THE cuEEsRA CUT PROBLEM.

Much anxiety is caused by the ire quent slides which have occurred in the Culebra cut, in the Panama canal but further than causing additional work for the removal of the millions of yards of clay and rock, it will have no effect upon the big interoceanic waterway when completed. The gen. eraI makeup of the sides of the cut is such that there is little or no sta bi1ity thereto and it takes but little to set large portions of it in motion. This is g problem with which the corps of engineers has had to contend throughout the making of the deep cut and realizing the situation the slides have been anticipated. The im- possibility of stopping them is under stood, but with the shifting of the ma terial. and its removal from the ditch, the hillside each time reaches a better level. which makes it easier to con- troll
 With such unstable conditions exist ing in the cut, because of it's physical structure, it is fortunate that the slides have occurred as they have, and before the water has been turned into the canal It is now possible to do the ~rost effective work in the removal of ~Se great quantities of material which sss required much additional labor and 1r-1aszse, yet will come within the es- i1nates.s Big. slides would be a serious sandicap after the canal is opened ant 5t .s believed that the problem -ili be overcome or under such con- trol. before that time, so that any such unfortunate affair will be avoided.

THE FREE LIST GOODS.

Some immediate results towards the reduction of the cost of living should be manifested as soon as the demo- cratic plan of tariff for revenue only is put into operation. That has been the claim for the democratic pro- gramme and one upon which reliance is placed for the bringing about of an adjustment of this important question. The prospects are that the free list bill as proposed last year will be en- acted thus sending up the already large amount of goods which IS received in this country without duty. Thde has been a steady increase in the amount of -dutiable goods coming to this country, and the past year shows near ly a billion dollars worth of merchan- disc from foreign countries. This is over two hundred million in excess of last year, or a trebling of the amount in twelve years. and represented e4.6 per cent of the total imports.
 The share of the merchandise which enters free of duty has greatly in creased in comparatively recent years and the cost of living has likewise advanced. The principal articles form ing the billion dollars worth of duty free merchandise were hides and skins. rubber, silk cotton, coffee and metals and yet in those lines of trade the goods which have been sold to the con- sumer have shown 8 tendency upward. This means of course that foreign bus- mess has profited in this line of free goods to an increased extent, in lines of which this country does not pro- duce a sufficient supply. When 1t comes to be applied to goods of which this country is a great producer, it's effect upon that production will be interesting to watch.
