DRIED BEEF
government recipe for dried beef
is as follows:

A government recipe for dried beef
is as follows:
The round is commonly used for
dried beef, the inside of the thigh be-
ing considered the choicest piece. as
ii is slightly more tender than the
outside of the round. The round
should be cut lengthwise of the grain
of the meat, so that the muscle fiber
may be cut crosswise when the dried
beef is sliced for table use. A tight
jar or cap is necessary for curing.
The process is as follows: To each
100 pounds of meat, weigh out five
pounds of salt three pounds of
granulated sugar, and two ounces of
saltpeter; mix thoroughly together.
Rub the meat on all surfaces with a
third of the mixture, and pack in d
jar as tightly as possible. Allow it
TO remain for three days, when it
should be removed and rubbed with
another third of the mixture. In re-
packing, put at the bottom the pieces
that were on top the first time. Let
stand for three days. when they
should be removed and rubbed with
the remaining third of the mixture,
and allowed to stand for three days
more. The meat is then ready to be
removed from the pickle. The liquid
in the jars should not be rem owed,
but the meat should be re-packed in
the liquid each time. After remoy-
ing from the pickle, the meat should
be smoked and hung in dry attic or
near the kitchen fire, where the
water will eyaporate from it. 1t
may be used at any time after smok-
ing, although the longer it hangs in
the dry atmosphere, the drier it will
get. The drier the climate, in gen
eral, the more easily meat can be
dried. In arid regions, good dried
meat can be made by exposing it
fresh to the air, with protection from
flies"

Very few men are equally efficient
in doing these two jobs. Some men
are expert grain growers, but don't
know how either to breed or to feed
or to market live stock. Some men
can breed wisely, but fail in feeding.
Other men breed we'll and feed we'll,
and yet fail to market to the best ad-
vantage. The breeding and feeding of
live stock is a much higher type of
farming than is simply growing
grain but even then the most sue
cessful breeder and feeder of live
stock is not always a good grain
grower, for the reason that he gives
his special attention to his live stock
and neglects his grain growing; and
vice versa. Some stockmen prefer to
market their crop in the shape of
pork, others in the shape of beef,
others in the shape of wool or NUT
ton, others in the shape of horse
flesh, and still others-and this is
really the highest type of farming
after all-in the shape of milk and
butter
Many grain growers fall down in
their marketing because they fail to
cooperate with their neighbors in
getting the shortest way to market
Many stock growers, though perhaps
not so many, fail because they do not
cooperate in breeding their live stock
or in selling it to the best advant-
age.
We have not attempted in this ar
ticle to tell farmers in detail how
they should grow their grain or how
they should handle their stock. We
simply want to put before them this
thought, that there are just two jobs
before the farmer. One is produc-
ton and the other is selling either
or through live stock.
There are several advantages in
the live stock route to market. One
is that it maintains the fertility OF
the soil, while exclusive grain grow
ing wastes it. Another is that it helps
to solve the labor problem, because 1t
furnishes labor to "a hired man the
year around, and helps to distribute
the work over the year. Another is
that we have better buildings and
better state of society in live stock
sections than in grain growing sec
tons. The highest civilization We
have is where there is the highest
form of stock growing, namely, in the
dairy section.-WalIaces Farmer.

4 GOOD SHOWING

THE FARMERS TWO JOBS

Speaking in broad and general
way, the farmer has just two Jobs on
his hands this year and every year.
The first is to produce the stuff. and
the second is to sell it to the best
advantage. The production depends
mainly on the fertility of the soil.
and this again is largely governed by
the way he has performed the job of
production in times past.
If we are to produce to advantage,
te must absorb and use the wisdom
and experience of the past. We must
have a rotation of crops. We must
give proper drainage, if that is lack
ing naturally. We must keep the
soil stored with vegetable matter. We
must select the right kind of seed. of
the right variety. and of good quail
ity. We must plant and SOW. We
must cultivate, We must harvest
and stack, crib, or otherwise protect
che crop until 1t is time to take up
the second job.
We may elect one or two ways of
selling the stuff produced. We can
sell it as coarse grain directly on the
market, or keep it until the market
is ready for it; but in either case it
amounts to selling more or less of
the fertility of the land. The other
way is to manufacture it into meats:
that is, stock growing.

FOREIGN WHEAT CROP

The Agricultural Outlook of June
%, published by the United States
Department of Agriculture, gives the
following facts regarding the foreign
wheat crop:
In early June prospects for the
Northern Hemisphere wheat crop
were, excepting a few countries. fully
normal. In Asiatic countries i'm
mediately north of the EQUATOR.
notably Southern China, British In
dla' and Persia. wheat harvesting
was finished. The yield of British
India is officially estimated at 313..
OoO,oOO bushels. against 35S.OOO.-
o0O bushels in 1918, a decrease of
100000 bushels. Unofficially the
PERSIAN crop is put at 100000
bushels, a deficient yield compared
with that of the previous year.
In countries along the north coast
OF Africa. next in harvest success.
Sion prospects as a whole are less
promising than a year ago. The

general, has been injured in the

SOUR SKIM MILK FOR CALVES

That in summer time calves do as
we'll on sour skim milk as they do on
sweet will be interesting news to
many farmers who have hitherto
been kept from raising calves by the
expense of keeping the milk sweet in
hot weather. This expense expert
ments carried out by the Department
OF Agriculture Indicate to be quite
unnecessary. The calves will make
as rapid gains on sour skim milk.
In winter, it is true, this is not quite
so satisfactory. 1t chills the calves
and some of them drink it with
great reluctance. Very young calves
have even been known to refuse it
altogethr. On the other hand, of
course, it is much easier to keep the
milk sweet in winter.
In calling the attention of farmers
to these facts, however, the Depart
ment of Agriculture at the same time
emphasizes an important precaution.
Unless the milk is produced and kept
under clearly conditions, it may be-
come contaminated with disease
producing bacteria. Farmers should
therefore allow the milk to sour
quickly and then feed it without de-
lay.
In the course of these experiments
sour skim milk was fed to % calves,
holsteins, Jerseys and Guernseys, at
different seasons of the year. In no
case did it cause digestive disturb
ances even when the change from
sweet to sour milk was made abrupt
ly when the calves were only a few
days old. Moreover, no evil results
followed the alternate use of sweet
and sour. 1t seems, therefore, that
the comm on idea that sour milk
leads to scours is quite unfounded.
The calves, it was found, did not
like the sour milk as we'll as the
sweet, but in the majority of cases
soon became accustomed to it. The
aversion, however, increased when
the milk was fed them at a low tenn
perature.

Province of Menufia by storms and
in upper Egypt is reported below
average. In the eastern and coast
regions of Algeria drought in March
did much irreparable damage, but in
other regions the plants were widely
revived by April rains. Prolonged
drought has also seriously affected
the small crop of Tunis.
Throughout the Continent of
Europe wheat seems in general to
have made the progress toward ma
turity to be expected at this season,
notwithstanding widespread appre-
hension at times of deterioration in
some countries from lack of suffi-
cient rainfall and unseasonably low
temperatures. In the United King
dom the former fine prospect was
reported in late May as we'll main
tanned, though cool weather was
then retarding growth and rain was
needed in some places.
The total area under winter and
spring wheat in France on May 1 has
been officially returned as 16,O45,-
600 acres, as compared with 16.-
$4,000 acres last year and 16,179.-
600 in 1912. The month of May
was characterized by violent changes
of weather and it is now realized
that a satisfactory outcome of the
French crop depends upon continu-
GUS favorable weather until after
harvest.
In Spain, Italy, and Portugal the
ripening grain gives general promise
of bountiful yields, excepting in
southern Italy, Sardinia, and Sicily,
where drought is said to have seri-
ously curtailed the output
The states of north-central and
south-central Europe, as a whole. re-
port prospects about normal. In the
Scandinavian countries, Germany,
and Austria vegetation is somewhat
backward, because of dry and cool
weather, but no actual damage has
resulted. In Hungary the former
discouraging outlook for a full crop
shows considerable Improvement
compared with a month ago. and In
Roumania the fears aroused by a
prolonged drought have been dissi-
pated by general rains. The Rou-
manian wheat area has been offici-
ally returned at 4,832,00O acres.
compared with 4,0l1,00O acres in
1913 and 5,114,000 in 1912; a fair
yield on the present acreage now
seems assured. The scant reports
from the Balkan States indicate CON
ditions of growth differing in no i'm
portant respect from those of ordi-
nary years.
a semi-official report from Russia
states that the condition of winter
wheat there was good" in sc, and
spring wheat good in 65, out of II
governments. Late in May copious
rain fell in nearly all districts; the
benefit to crops, which in some
places were beginning to show the
effects of drought, was inestimable.
