The usual method for preserving
beef on the farm is to make what is
commonly called corn beef. For the
corning of beef one should weigh out
10 pounds of salt to each 100 pounds
of meat. Cut the meat into chunks
five or six inches square so that it
will pack into a barrel or jar. neatly.
First put a layer of about ! inch of
salt on the bottom of the barrel, then
add a layer of five or six inches of
meat, then a layer of salt and so on
until all the meat and salt are pack
good layer over the top. The fol-
lowing day weigh out pounds of
sugar, ounces of saltpetre and 2
ounces of common baking soda. Dis
solve this in one gallon of boiling
water and skim off any scum which
may rise to the surface When cold
add more gallons of water and
pour over the meat. With eorned
beef, it is a rule to leave the beef
in the brine until read TO use. 1t
usually takes 80 to 40 days for beef
to become properly corned. 1t is
necessary to change the brine about
every so or 40 days because molds
are liable to set in and spoil the
brine.

THE TECHNICAL PROBLEMS OF

AND PRACTICE

THE most complex business in the
world" is a very truthful way of des-
cribing modern farming, yet the city
man regards farming as an operation
of the simplest characteristics pillow
the land, turn on the water, plant the
seed and harvest the crop Sounds
easy, doesn't it? And the city man
says: Whats the reason our farmers
aren't making more money!" or Our
farmers certainly do business in an
awful slack way. If | had a farm, I'd
show 'em how to do farming right
And pretty soon this gentleman purch-
asses a farm and shows the real farm
ers hoW-to spend money in farming
The point is just this, no sane dry
goods merchant who has never had
any experience, say in the manufacture
ing of stoves, would expect to embark
in that business and make a success of
it. Nor is it any more reasonable that
a man who knows little or nothing of
farming can be successful in it. The
fact is that farming is highly techni
cal business which requires years of
special training and experience for
success.
The word technical suggests an
other word, science. Unfortunately

where through open windows the IRE
quent cries Of the crowds "Hang
Frank, hang Frank"-were distinctly
heard. The jury would have risked
their lives had they returned any
other verdict than guilty"
The trial judge was not convinced
of Franks guilt; the sheriff in whose
custody he is, is sure of his inno-
cence. E.. pc, ... 81
But fate and prejudice seem to have
blocked every legal avenue to a re-
hearing. Last week when resent
enced after a denial by the supreme
court to have the case re-opened, Mr.
Frank, in a most impressive address
said in part:
"The legal arena is closed to me.
The bar is placed forever against fur
Their legal process. Yet the issue of
guilt or innocence has been before but
one court, that in which the jury sat.
All subsequent appeals were made
upon alleged legal and judicial errors,
not upon the facts or the evidence.
Since the jury heard the case no court
of inquiry or review has sifted the
evidence. No decision Of any appeals
court undertook to predicate an opin-
ion on the record of the testimony and
evidence. The doubt Of the trial judge
as to my guilt still remains"
Justice Hughes says Of the dis
senting decision of the minority:
- This question is mot a matter for
polite presumptions," that. jurymen
have been known to be "impregnated
by the en~vironing atmosphere" and
that when, in the judgment of the
Judge whose business it was to pre-
serve not only form but substance, if
any jurymen had yielded to reasonable
doubt "neither prisoner nor council
would be safe from the rage OF the
crowd, we think the presumption
overwhelming that the jury responded
to the passion of the mob" Justice
Hughes adds that it is the duty Of
the supreme court, Ito declare lynch
law as little valid when practiced by q
regularly drawn jury as when ad-
ministered by one elected by a mob
intent on DEATH"
The only chance now to save Frank
from the gallows is by petitioning the
governor of the state Of Georgia to
commute his sentence to imprison-
ment for life. And this is the maxi
mum punishment for murder in North
Dakota and many other states! This
will not give Frank a fair trial. 1t
will only save him from death upon
the gallows and give him the ~consola-
ton that "While there is life there is
hope"
The hearing is set for May 81.

Hettinger county is out for better
roads and is doing this work through
auto clubs. A county auto club is to
be organized by delegates from SINH
lar clubs in the larger towns. The
county now has about $1,000 from the
automobile license fund and the club
dues and possibly some aid from the
county will make a tidy sum to begin
with. One contractor offers to grade

DORCAS SOCIETY MERITS SUP
PORT.

4O4e1s
Many people do not seem to realize
the amount of relief work done in U
midst by the Dorcas society OF to
understand how this work is done.
The society is limited to fifteen
active members and each member, be-
sides the $1.00 fee when she joins,
pays into the treasury ten cents at
each meeting. This keeps a little
money in the treasury and once a
year a dance or something extra is
done to increase the funds available
for charity. ..-
The society has furnished and keeps
up a room at the hospital and often
helps the Sisters in various ways
such as furnishing night gowns and
other clothing for the use Of patients
entering without a sufficient supply.
The main work of the society is
helping individuals or families re-
ported by the doctors or by any one
who knows of the need. These cases
are investigated and as far as possible
| clothing needs are met from the sup
ply Of "passed on" garments which
the society has on hand and which is
always going out to the needy and the
supply ~replenished as outgrown and
partly worn and discarded clothing
comes in. When there is nothing
suitable in this supply new, warm
garments are purchased. Occasion
ally coal or groceries or medicines art
sent.
