Dry Cure For Ham, Shoulders And

Meat cured with this formula mas been found palatable and sweet after several years, says L. E. McGinnis of the University If Missouri College of Agricul- ture.
 To each 10 pounds of meat use 5 pounds of salt. 3 pounds of warm syrup, (any good syrup can be used) pounds of saltpeter 3 ounces of black pepper and , ounces ot red pepper. All these ingredients should be thorough ly mixed together It will first lump and darken. When these Jumps are rubbed out the ingre- dients are ready to be rubbed in the meat and should make coat ing over it. The syrup causes it to stick.
 The meat can be put into 8 barrel or box. or be piled on the floor or table. There will be drainage which is best taken care of in a barrel or tight box. Leave the meat six weeks in the cure and the extra heavy pieces a week longer. If you wish to smoke it, take it right out of the pile and hang it in the smoke house without washing. Smoke it until you get the required color over not too hot a fire.

VILLIFYING THE SENATE.

Nothing else in recent American politics is
more ridiculous and utterly indefensible than
the furious assaults upon the senators who feel
it to be their duty as American citizens and
sworn officials of the government to scrutlnlze
the league treaty with scrupulous care with
view to protecting as far as humanity possible
the interests of this republic. The basest mo-
tives are imputed to them. Their word is ques
toned. The facts they offer are flouted, and
they are held up to scorn by rancorous parti-
sans and by some well-intentioned but unre-
Elective people so captivated by the allurlng
phrase league of nations that they are
ready to swallow anything that Is called a
Eleague-without examination and on the child
like assumption that no document that can be
called a league could work harm to the United
States.
For example, when senators who have given
their best consideration to those clauses of the
document, as far as the summary reveals them,
which bear directly on the Monroe doctrine
reach the conclusion that our historic policy is
largely nulliied by league provisions, they are
assailed Indignantly shallow ranters and
wilful perverters Of the truth. Yet Stephen
Lausanne, the eminent publicist of France and
editor of the Paris Matin admits that the Mon
roe doctrine is violated by the league and that
1t is mOnumentaly paradoXlcal and a trlfle
infantile to pretend to the contrary" He
proves his case by showing that articles seven,
eleven and sixteen of the covenant nullify the
doctrine in several important particulars.
Now it may be that there are Americans who
ARE perfectly willing to abandon the doctrine if
the president asks them to, and take the coven-
ant in its place. But there are others-and
vastly more Of them-who deem it wiser to
cling to our traditional policy-approved by
time and advantageous to us as it is known to
!be-and make the reservations in the treaty
needful to this end. Most of the senator's are
of this opinion, and it is for that the foodgates
of abuse are opened on them.
All true Americans ought to rejoice that they
have senator's so determined to Safeguard
American interests. Neither their sincerity MOI
their fearessness can be questioned, for they
expose themselves to torrents of insult and mis-

THE HANDICAP OF HUMOR.

''FNcept for the handicap OF his humor VIZ
liam Allen White might rank as one OF the
most acute and accurate of the correspondents,
remarks an eastern newspaper. Mr.. White mas
proved one of the most interesting OF the cor
respondents and his humor has been no handl-
leap We are past the foolish notion that seeing
1.-THE fun in serious situations and setting II De-
fore the publicis evidence that writer's VISION
lis impaired. We are almost past the foohsh no
ton that people do not take seriously the sensible
arguments and illuminations that are uttered
amusingly. Humor of the genuine sort has
never been handicap because it is successfully
used by writer only when 1t is his natural
manner: the writer's who attempt its use when
lit is a pose are not of enough account to affect
this statement
The handicap of humorists has been lack or
appreciation by the public. The appreciation
iof hufnor-we have called it sense of humor
Ifanliliarly-is of slow growth; it begins by an
appreciation of spoken humor and this has been
iage-long But in spoken humor the personal
manner, the information, the direct making OF the
point lend aid to appreciation. The written
word has no such aid and it has been slower to
find thorough appreciation. The many times
uttered opinion that the productions of
Mark Twain, who saw and set down the humors
of human affairs, would command even wider
attention than is accorded them if they had
been written in serious vein is largely illogical
Probably he would not have commanded atten-
ton at all had he been untrue to the gift he
used. He saw the great paradox that man who
is the commanding figure in the world is con-
tinually prey to his own inconsistencies and to
the sudden OVERSEES which he gets from things
and forces which he accepts as his servants.
The operation of this paradox is constant and
1t has great part in the actual affairs of the
world. Appreciation of this makes for humility
and humility is virtue whose saving grace Is
most needed now. Mr.. White carries quite as
much conviction of seeing things as they are
when he sees the inconsistencies and writes OF
them as he would If he were portentlously
solemn In his manner.

SERIOUS BUSHES

Springfield Republican: 1t is time,
perhaps, to announce the appearance
of the question of Irish independence
in American politics. William u.
Mason, a republican representative
from Chicago, has introduced bill
making an appropriation to cover tn ;
salaries and expenses of a minister
and various consuls 10 the republic
of Ireland Senator Borah, another
republican, has introduced u fesolu-
ton requesting our delegation at
Paris to secure a hearing before the
peace conference for the Representa-
tiyes "of the people of Ireland in
order that said representatives may
pesent the cause of Ireland and ask
international recognition of the gov
eminent, republican in form, estab-
lished by the people of Ireland" The
Borah resolution barely avoids reoog-
milton of the Sim Fein republic.
The next question is how far Mr..
Lodges foreign relations committee
will go in making an issue with the
Wilson administration concerning
| Ireland. 1t would be an issue easy
to make II the republicans cared to
agitate 1t on party lines, for Presi-
dent Wilson can not recognize Irish
claims to independence, or even pro-
mote the independence cause, with
out precipitating a break between
Great Britain and the United STAGES.

FOREIGN LOANS.

In its semi-nonthly review of foreign trade
matters the Guaranty Trust company, of New
York City, reports that financial interests In
this country are gathering data and determin-
ing policy under which foreign loans will be
made There are to be two factors of predoml-
nant influence: the need of the nation seeking
the loan and reliability of safeguard which is
offered The bankers of the nation have great
problem on their hands, since European nations
must now look to the private banking interests
of the United States for the loans they sorely
need Probably the world demand for Ameri-
can money exceeds the supply by considerable.
Furthermore, the unsettled trade balance and
the depleted resources Of Europe make ordinary
safeguards insufficient. Since careful choice
must be made, it will be well that real needs are
considered as a factor; there probably will be
all the demand that our fnanciers can take care
of coming under this classification The stand
that the government has taken on the Chinese
loan may be considered precedent; if so, our
bankers will endeavor to see that full publicity
is given to the loan and project in the nation
where the loan is made, with view to having
popular understanding Of the responsibility in
volved.

TODAY'S BIT OF VERSE
WHENCE coMETH MY STRENGTH

| have walked along q river
That is peaceful in its flow,
Where the great hills stand forever
Quiet hills that thrill me so
Peaceful hills, all change defying,
To your sombre, silent rise,
When a noisy day is dying,
~ Trusting, lift up mine eyes
When the ways OF men are palling
On the heart of me, know
That the hills, the hills are calling
Me away; l rise and go
From the town and noise and riot
Where the changing days go by,
And | seek the splendid quiet
OF the hills and woods and sky.
There is shifting all around me,
There is endless, endless change;
And a narrow sight has bound me,
And from out the wistfnl range,
Is il all. I've often wondered,
Working out for i'll or good?
Wiser men than have pandered
On these things, nor understood
But when the doubts come creeping
Like the gathering of gloom,
When even in my sleeping
MY very dreams assume
The form OF mighty yearning,
And a terror through me thrills
Look up, soul, and turning.
See the Presence in the Hills.
