CURING MEATS
BRINGS REPLY
FROM AGENT
JCovington, La, Jan. IS, 1921

bOvAugLOn, La, Jan. lS, l9Zl. II
Dear Friend Wife:-There has
been so many requests for the recipe
OF putting up dry-cured pork I ain
putting the recipe in the paper SO
that you can copy it. l am glad to
know that you are interested in cur
ing your meat in the best way, You
will not really appreciate this recipe
until you have tasted your meat next
summer and know how delicious it
is The recipe is:
For each loo pounds Of meat use
8 pounds salt, pounds warm syrup;
2 ounces saltpeter, 8 ounces black
pepper, 2 ounces red pepper.
Mix all the ingredients together
and take each piece Of meat and rub
this mixture thoroughly over your
meat, then pack the meat into a
container or on clean floor, leaving it
for 10 or 2 days, then repack it SO
as to make sure all the meat has
the same curing, leaving it in this
pack two days per pound For in
stance your heaviest piece weighs IL
pounds, why then leave in this pack
altogether 20 days. If you do lot
like the peppers you may leave thai
out Of the recipe, but it is necessary
to have the other ingredients in your
meat. When it has remained there
20 days, hang your meat and smoke
it with green hickory or maple wood,
as it gives the meat a delicious
flavor, and make sure it is thorough
ly dired out, See that your smoke
house is fly proof.
We are going to have some good
prizes for home cured meat at the
next fair, in this parish, and also il.
the State Fair, and We want st. Tam
many to lead the state this year, so
let's prepare our meat now and make
this exhibit Of home cured meat
l am glad to know that you are
interested in this project and con-
tinue to write, asking for tie bulle-
tins, for they contain very valuable
recipes and other phases of curing
meats.
Strictly at your service, l am,
Sincerely your friend,

(By A. E. Briggs)

In last weeks letter among thu
enumerations Of St. Tammany's un
rivaled natural advantages, l noted
the fact that we are nearest to the
one great Southern local market and
that we have equal or better access
to Northern markets than any Other
locality Since then l have happily
met a gentleman whom poor health
has compelled to take a residence in
this parish Chow many people would
be living here had we not this won
derful ozone and pure water?. How
ever, to my surprise he has sufficient
faith in the future of this parish to
make some investments here, by the
purchase particularly of a consider
able acreage Of cut-oyer pine lands,
and whatever we may think OF his
Judgment in taking the risk, strange
enough it Is founded on something
like thirty years experience (as re-
call it, in buying and dealing In car
load lots Of trucking produce. He is
acquainted with every notable truck
ing section in the South and knows
thoroughly the requirements of every
Northern market He advises me
that in shipments to New York we
have equal transportation rates anu
equal facilities in every natural re-
spect with Florida; we are handi-
capped only by the backwardness OF
production here and the inferior
capability of the foreigner who is the
chief producer. For instance, to IL
lustrate the latter point an ignorant
Italian may put In the top OF the
barrel very high grade of vegetable
and fill In the bottom with refuse or
hay, and the frequency of such
frauds has discredited the New Or
leans producer and shipper in every,
Northern market, and this alone
makes the discrimination in favor of
Florida Goods. And, says he, fr
trucking St. Tammany soils are
superior to those of Florida, for
although ours need abundant fertil-
izers they retain them, while the
Florida soil which ordinarily has six
feet Of sand to the subsoil eats up
more fertilizer than any soil on the
Coastal Plains. Besides, the land OF
this parish is better adapted to truck
ing than any Of the mucks or black
gumbo lands along the Mississippi
and the Gulf where now truck gar
dening Is chiefly done. AS for trans
portation the New Orleans shipper
is. now accustomed to carry produce
by auto truck as far as thirty or forty
miles to railway shipping points.
The Importance of auto transporta-
tion must not be overlooked, for with
good roads this parish Is SO located
that it is easily accessible to the
main or trunk lines Of the Illinois
Central and Southern Railway Sys-

SCENIC ROUTE SCOUT CAR ON
WAY SOUTH.
Started from Winnipeg En- Route Ia
New Orleans Over Mississippi
Valley Highway.
(From Dubun,,e Dai1v r;moe,

(F'rom Dubuque Daily Times)
Scout Car No. of the Mississippi
Valley Scenic Highway, en- route
from Winnipeg to New Orleans, left
Dubuque Monday morning. The car
was driven by Truman Pierson, OF
Minneapolis, general manager and
organizer. The entire winter will be
put in below the Mason and Dixon
line in completing organizations, lee
turing on the highway and cam
paigning for "a greater tourist traffic
from the south to the north.
The General plan of the -Missis-
sippi Valley Highway System is to
promote traffic for it's lines by COM
prehensive use OF publicity backed
with organization and, tourist travel
service. With agencies in banks and
other important centres of commun1-
ties and with organizations in each
town the association makes it a
business to secure traffic for the
Scenic Highway on the assumption
that increased traffic brings road i'm
provements.
The Mississippi Valley Highway is
said to be the shortest route to New
Orleans from Winnipeg by at least
500 miles and Is miles shorter from
Minneapolis to Winnipeg than any
other route and the first to be i'm
proved between Chicago and Winni-
peg via Clinton and Dubuque.
A service folder to advertise the
route and chief cities and towns on
same is now In preparation and it is
expected it will have circulation OF
approximately quarter of million.

AUTO PLANTS WILL RESUME
OPERATIONS.
Unemployment Will Be Ended In a
Short Time.
(From Dubuque Daily News)

(F'rom Dubuque Daily News)
Detroit, Mics, Jan. 1.-THE back
bone of the idleness in automobile
factories has been broken, and the
middle of February or the first OF
March will see every major automo-
bile manufacturing plant and ma
jority of the smaller ones back at
work.
Whep these plants resume work it
is generally predicted a majarity Of
the vast army Of unemployed will be
back on their jobs. In Detroit alone
there are over a hundred thousand
affected by the temporary shutdown
of the plants announced in December
and early this month, for inven-
tory"
That these plants will open is made
certain with the announcement that
the Ford Motor Company will re-
sumo production early in February,
1t is unoft1clally stated that Feb
ruary II is the day when the Ford
plant, employing $4,000 men, will
swing open Its gates. R. ]. Craig,
secretary of the Highland Park
plant, principal production center Of
the Ford Company, said today he
hoped and believed the company
would resume operations even before
February IT, Officials Of the Cen
eral Motors Corporation, the largest
automobile combine in the world,
were prone today to remain silent
when asked for the probable date
of reopening of the large plants con-
trolled by the corporation. If Ford
reopens his plant ahead of the rest,
the majority Of the others will fall
in line as was done when, like bolt
from the blue, Ford announced his
price cut for the popular automobile
last September.
The Detroit Employers Associa-
tion said there has been a gradual
and steady improvement in the auto
mobile situation in Detroit in the
past several weeks. A week follow
ing the temporary shutdown, sev-
eral companies commenced re-em-
ploying men on a part time basis and
today there are 15,Aee men back to
work The automobile companies
said these men, while net engaged in
actual production, aresfepairing the
machinery for greater production
than ever"
Detroit's second largest automobile
factory, the Dodke. VIII open at
about the same time Ford resumes.
