MARATHON COUNTY BANKERS
WILL BOOST PURE BRED
PIG CLUBS

The Bankers of Marathon county
will meet Monday evening to discuss
the promotion of large number of
pure bred pig clubs for Marathon
county during the coming season. The
demand for meat is constantly on the
increase, and it is up to the farmer
of the United States to at least for
the present provided for this demand.
Pig.
Pigs can be successfully raised in
Marathon county. Peas and barley
make the finest bacon. These are a
standard grain crop in Marathon
county, and we should use them to the
best of advantage.
The clubs will be organized among
the boys of our county, and the aim
will not only be to supply them with
their first pigs, but special emphasis
will be upon the Importance of breed
ing, and increasing the hcg supply.
The old method was to supply the boy
with his pig, have him raise it, fat
ten it, and sell it off, and az the end
of the season there wouldn't be a
single additional pig in the county.
The county bankers meeting will be
addressed by Mr. Smith, we'll known
pig breeder, and Mr.. Bartlett, secre-
tary of the Wisconsin Bankers asSoci-
alton.
This work is under the direction of
| the agricultural committee of the Wis
consin Bankers association, of which
G. G. Kruger of this city represents
the Northeastern Section Of Wisconsin.

More about cooking meat.

More about cooking meat.
Mother insisted that we girls should
learn how to cook; and we too felt
pride in knowing how.
Meat for boiling or ROASTING was
usually ordered the night before.
Early next morning it was scared
over in hot grease, then cooked in a
small amount OF hot sailed water
frequently turned and basted. Water,
when added must be hot for it must
cook steadily but not too fast, for
fast boiling hardens meat or eggs.
A little vinegar or soda added helps
to make the meat tender. 1t should
cook until the bone will drop out, but
not too much to fear slicing.
In warm weather when we had no
ice. we used to heat the meat thru at
supper time, sometimes partly cooking
it. letting it stand overnight in a
granite kettle, in this case it was left
uncovered until thoroughly cold.
In making soup the rice or vegeta-
bles was placed in a separate kettle
with some of the broth added to the
boiling water. The meat was removed
from the kettle, before these were
added.
Mother always charged US to bt
careful not to let the soup burn down
not to season too highly, especially
with salt.
We were taught that to prepare al
1 appetizing meal was one of the great
est accomplishments. j.

TO FIGHT EPIDEMIC

Health Commissioner George G.
Rutland has issued rules which every
Milwaukeean can follow to prevent
the spread of Spanish influenza. They
are:
1. Keep away from all known cases
of influenza and "colds."
2. Avoid all public gatherings and
crowded street cars.
3. Use your handkerchief il you
must cough, sneeze or expectorate.
4. Quit shaking hands. Ninety per
cent of all contagious disease is spread
by the way of the hands. Keep them
clean and away from your mouth.
5. Get plenty of fresh air day and
night. Eat enough OF plain but noIr-
ishing food and take sufficient rest at
night.
6. Give prompt attention to on-com-
ing illness. Go to bed at once and
call a doctor.
Z. Do not consider yourself recov-
cred until your doctor tells you so.
Serious complications are largely due
to neglect to do so.
