MEAT-cURING IN VIRGINIA

Hog killing time" will soon be at
hand in Virginia, and the indications
are that more hogs will be killed this
season than ever before within the
past two decades. 1t may be, there
fore. that few hints and suggestions
us TO meat curing will come in right
we'll just now.
When meat is cooled, rub each piece
with salt and allow 1t to drain over
night. Then pack 1t in barrel with
the hams and shoulders in tho bottom,
using the strips of bacon to fill In be-
tween or to put on top. Weigh out
for each 100 pounds of meat eight
pounds OF salt, two pounds of brown
sugar. and two ounces of saltpeter.
Dissolve all In four gallons of water,
and cover the meat with the brine.
For summer use 1t Will be safest to boil
the brine before using. In that case
1t should be thoroughly cooled before
1t is used. For winter curing 1t is
not necessary to boil the brine. Bacon
strips should remain in this brine four
to six weeks: hams six to eight weeks.
This Is standard recipe, and has
given the best of satisfaction. Hams
and bacon cured in the spring will
keep right through the summer after
they are smoked. The meat will be
sweet and palatable if II Is properly
smoked, and the flavor will be good.
Meat that is to be smoked should be
removed from the brine u day before

CREAM TESTS

There are many causes for tho yurla- :
lions sometimes found In cream tests.
Frequently would be n better word to
use than sometimes In connection with
may always be looked for. a few OF the
causes are here given. 5Gs
If the milk of q herd OF cows whose
average test is 4 per cent is sep
arated SO that the cream tests 40 per
cent and the milk suddenly drops to
35 per cent of fat. as will often occur,
the cream will then test only So per
cent The amount of fat lost in the
skim milk Is not affected to any ap-
preciable extent by the richness Of the
milk separated.
variation in the test of cream from
the farm separator is n variation In
the amount Of water or skim milk used
for flushing out the cream at the end
of the run. 1t is apparent that espec-
tally where small quantity of the
cream is separated, n marked differ
ence In the richness of the cream may
be made by change in the amount
Of water or skim milk added 1t is
an easy matter to- vary pint or more
I'm the water or skim milk used. and
this alone may easily change the per
cent of fat in the cream from to
3 per cent. The per cent of fat in the
cream may be readily changed, as is
we'll known. by adjusting the cream
screw.

changed very frequently, and 1t is not
the common cause of the variations In
the test which constantly occur, and
which causes so much friction between
the buyer and seller of cream.
1t seems reasonable to expect that
the richness of milk could be in
fuenced by the character of the feed
given to the animals. However It has
been thoroughly proved that for all
practicable purposes 1t is impossible.
The richness of the cows milk de-
ponds upon inheritance, and can no
more be changed permanently by the
feed than can the color of her hair.
If the milk cannot be changed in
richness By the feed 1t is clearly inn
possible for cream to be Influenced in
THIS way,

MUCH GAINED BY
THINNING FRUIT

Mr.. Edward Walker. who has lots
of experience in fruit growing. writes
for The Times Dispatch as follows:
While the advantages of thinning
fruit are recognized by all, neglect of
thinning fruit Is more usual than the
opposite. Some effective thinning is
done at the time OF pruning the tree
each spring, but this Is not sufficient
The best practice requires that the
peaches on n limb shall not be closer
than four to six inches. This will
mean knocking of from half to three
fourths of the peaches Some who
practice thinning peaches reduce the
number OF peaches still more.
The best time for thinning is when
the peaches are about the size of q
small prune. and after what is known
as the June drop"
The hired man, working on n step
ladder. makes the cost of the thinning
of Il medium tree about 3 cents. The
effect on the size of the remaining fruit
is astonishing, increasing the salable
value of the remaining fruit sufficient
to pay 1000 per cent on the cost of
the work of thinning, to say nothing
of the great saving to the strength of
the tree in reducing the number of pits
borne.
The flesh of the peach is largely
water. The greater draught on the
strength of the tree is the production
reduce the number of pits rs to so
per cent and almost or fully double
the size of the peaches. 1t is better
to knock off some of the peaches Of
loaded tree rather than allow the
tree to overbear, even IL the thinning
must be done somewhat roughly
On every side we see evidences of
the great advantages to be derived
from thinning fruit In one case, the
results of moderate thinning resulted
as follows: Peaches from thinned FL
berta trees ran 40 to $50 peaches to
tho bushel, while In the same orchard,
fruit from unthinned trees numbered
from EGO to 27z peaches to the bushel.
Peaches are gathered as soon as
ripening begins and before they have
become soft An experienced picker
knows alta glance when tho fruit is In
proper condition. The fruit should
never be pressed with the thumb to
determine Its ripeness. When gath

and of recent years there has been n
good deal of needless alarm over them.
AS q matter of fact they are not
poisonous and do no harm whatever,
and If they should be occasionly eaten
by accident with the cooked cabbage

ses of the worms have failed to show
