Ernest Greenwood. American corre-
Gpondent of the International Labor Of

he made at tho request of the director
G: the office.
Mr.. Greenwood sent a QUESTIONABLE
containing fourteen questions to thirty

Fort to the director.
The thirty-one institutions have a
total OF 3.240 students, who ara taught
all subjects from kindergarten to college
preparatory courses. The ages of the
pupils range from s to so years and
their vocational instruction includes
mostly broom and basket making, piano

1t has been the experience of these

These ingredients can be purchas-

There are several recipes for the
corning of beef which may be used
satisfactorily. We recommend the
following procedure:
Beef selected for corning should
be relatively fat, and the parts to
be used for this purpose should be
cut into six-inch squares. 1t is de-
sirable that the meat be thoroughly
cooled, but it should never be froz-

RECIPE FOR TANNING HIDES
J. S. X, Cedartown, Ga,
writes: l wish to tan some hides
for lace leather and hame
strings. Can you give me recipe
for this purpose?
The following method of tanning
skins has been advised: Make a So
luton of one quart of salt and one
half ounce of sulphurlc acld 70
each gallon of water. Keep the pelt
immersed for one day. After re-
moving it, wash the skin several
times in soapy water, wiring as dry
as possible and run hard soap on the
flesh side. Then fold in the middle
over a line, hair side out, and leave
it to dry. When both surfaces are
barely dry and the interior is still
moist, lay the hide over rounded
board and scrape the flesh side with
the edge of a worn fiat file or other
blunt-edged tool thus removing the
inner layer. The skin then becomes
