Those who desire to pay their taxes

ters by dropping the Treasurer a card
asking for the amount of their taxes,
so as to avoid sending the wrong
amount, also stating the township or
townships (if property is owned in

be avoided. R. B. SMITH,

Smoking and Hanging Meat.

The process of smoking helps to
preserve the meat by drying it,
and it also gives desirable flavor
if smoked properly and with the
right kind of fuel. If only small
quantity of meat is to be smoked
once a year, a barrel or box will an
swer. By arrah12g the barrel or
box with the fies16 that the fire
Ian be built on the outside and the
Ismoke conveyed to the box in this
= fiue, one can throughly smoke small
quantities of meat without danger
of injury to the meat or without dan
ger of fire.
Green hickory or oak is the best
fuel for smoking. Hardwood is al
ways preferable. One should never
use pine or any other resinous wood.
After the meat has been washed
in lukewarm water it should be hung
in the smokehouse and allowed to
hang for "a hours before beginning
to smoke. A slow fire should be
started so that the meat will warm
up gradually. The fire can be kept
going continuously until the smos-
ing is complete, holding the temper
ature as even as possible, especially
around 120 to 125 degrees F. If there
il any quantity of meat and it is not
intended to keep it for any great
length of time, 36 to 4s hours is long
enough to smoke it; but if the meat
is to be kept for considerable
lenght of time, it is better to smoke
it slower and longer. During warm
weather t is best to start the fire
every other day, rather than to heat
the meat too rapidly.
When the meat is throughly smok
ed the smokehouse should be opened
50 that the meat may cool. 1t is then
ready to be packed.
Wrap in heavy paper and put into
muslin sacks. Tie this sack securely
so as to keep out meets, and always
remove the strings by which the meat
was hung up to smoke.
After the meat is put in these sacks
each sack should be painted with
wash made from the following recipe:
For each 100 pounds of meat use 3
pounds of barium sulphate; .O6 pounds
of glue; .OS pounds of chrome yellow;
.O4 pounds of -four. Dissolve the flour
in a half-bucket of water. Be sure
to dissolve all the Jumps; then dis
solve the chrome yellow in a quart
of water in a separate vessel and ada
this solution as a glue to the flour.
Bring the whole to boil and add the
barium sulphate slowly, being sure
to stir constantly. Make this wash
the day before it is going to be used
and apply with a brush to the sack
being sure to keep it stirred all the
time so that none of the conents
will settle in the bottom of he pail.
After the meat is packed in this
way it can be hung up for future use

STOCK FARMING MAKES
FIELDS PRODUCE MORE

Livestock farming and the proper
care of farm manure which results
from this system is the most success
full and economical means of main
tanning soils that will produce big
crop yields according to R. E. Steph-
enson, soils extension specialist from
the College of Agriculture. So impor-
tant is this method that Kentucky
farmers will profit not only by giving
careful lattention to the conservation
Of manure but also by increasing the
number of animals unit leach farm is
stocked to its full capacity Of meat
and milk production. No other fertil-
izer is as economical as that pro-
duced by livestock, Mr.. Stephenson
said. At the present time nearly $780,
900 dairy COWS, more than 5000 beef
cattle, 100000 hogs, $4,000 horses
and mules and nearly 100000 sheep
ire helping to keep Kentucky soils up
to a state Of fertility where they will
produce big crop yields year after
year.
Keeping enough livestock to con-
sumo all feeds raised nthe farm re-
suits in most Of the fertility value o:
the crops being left as manure when
the livestock or livestock products are
sold, according to Mr.. Stephenson.
About ten pounds of grain and five
pounds Of roughage are required to
produce a pound of beef the plant

as manure whe nthe pound of beef is
sold. About nine pounds of feed are
required to produce a pound of NUT

landlords gave you a months rent
free Of charge If you'd only move into

that she should take care of the land
