withdrawal of the forces had
been a matter of widespread pro

The following advice to farmers
in a circular recently issued by the
L. :. Department of Agriculture.
With the rise in the price Of
cotton are you going TO play safe
or are you going TO take a chance?
Now is the time to decide. If you
gamble on the price of cotton you
take chance; if you follow the
program outlined by all of the agri
cultural forces last fall you will
take no chance. Here is the pro-
gram in nutshell, the title Of
which is. Safe Farming"
First. Produce a home garden
for every family on the farm, the
year round, paving special atten-
ton to a plot of Irish or sweet
potatoes sufficient to supply the
family with food OF this character.
Where feasible, have a patch Of
sorghum or other cane 10 produce
syrup for the family.
Second. Produce the corn ne
cessary 10 support all of the people
on tire farm and the live stock.
with absolute safety.
Third 49, Produce the necessary
oats and other small grain to sup
plement the corn as food. Pay
attention to winter grazing.
Fourth Produce hay and forage
from some forage crop, sufficient
TO supply all of the live stock on
the farm. Use le9uues such as
clover, cowpeas, velvet beans, soy
beans and alfalfa for the produc-
ton of hay and to enrich the soil
with nitrogen and humus.
Fifth. Produce the meat ne
cessary to supply the people,
through increased attention to
poultry and hogs, especially. Plan
TO gradually increase the number
of cattle and otter live stock so a:
to have a sufficient number tc
consume the waste products of the

Curing Pork OF the Farm

The late Hon. Chas. Schuler,
at one time State Commissioner of
Agriculture and immigration, em-
ployed the following methods of
curing pork on his farm with much
success:
When hogs are fat, select any
time during the month of Decem-
Der, January, or first half of Feb
ruary, when weather is clear, wind
from north to north west, with the
thermometer registering below IS
at sunrise. Have the water hot
and scald as soon as the hog is
dead. Hang up and diseInbowel
the animal just as soon as it is
cleaned. No butchering animal
should ever be allowed to cool of
until after it is disemboweled. Cut
up the carcass as soon as It is
through dripping. Saw or spit the
backbone. Let it and the spare
rib remain on the side, and make
them as long as you can. Hams to
sell readily should weigh from fif
teen to eighteen pounds. The
jowl will mix very nicely with
trimmings and shoulder in making
sausage, either for house use OF
market. Feet, when cleaned pro.
perly, and put, raw, in strong
brine, will keep all right for several
months. Spread the joints and
sides in the smoke house, applying
a small quantity of salt to eacf
piece. Let it remain until next
morning to cool, then pack away,
using plenty of clean salt.
