A good tanning liquor is composed
of one quart of salt and one-half
ounce of sulphuric acid to each gal
Ion of water. AS the. acid corrOdes
metal, this liquid should be kept in
a glass or wooden container. Rabbit
skins will be tanned in this mixture
in from three to four days, but they
may be kept in it for longer time
without injury.
Drying the Skins.
When removed from the tanning
liquor skins should be washed several
times in soapy water, wrung as dry
as possible, thoroughly rubbed on the
flesh side with cake of hard soap,
folded in the middle lengthwise over
a line, hair side out, and left to dry.
When both outer surfaces are barely
dry and the interior Is still moist, the
skins should be laid over a smooth,
rounded board or plank and scraped
on the flesh side with the edge of
worn fiat file or other blunt-edged
tool. In this way an inner layer of
tissue Is removed and the skins be-
come nearly white in color. They
should then be stretched, rubbed, and
twisted until quite dry. If parts of
a skin are still hard or stiff, it should
be returned to the tanning solution
and the process repeated until the
entire skin is soft. Fresh butter or
other animal fat worked into skins
while they are warm and then worked
out again in dry hardwood sawdust,
or extracted by hasty bath in gaso-
line, increases their softness. Home
dressed skins should be matched for
color before being made up into gar
ments.

GOOD CARE OF cows UDDER
More Susceptible to Disease and In
jury Than Any Other Certain
Part Of Her Body.

The udder Of the dairy cow Is sus-
ceptible to injury and disease more
than any other portion of her body.
Take care of the udder. The introduce
ton of bacteria into this organ is a
most serious source of mischief. These
bacteria may gain entrance into the
udder through mechanical injury,
through introduction on the surface
and through the blood.
Careless handling Of milk tubes, and
allowing the COW to come into contact
with wire fences, and jagged pieces Of
lumber is criminal When dairy ami
mails are confined to an enclosure, they
should have plenty Of room to avoid
the possibility Of cows stepping on the
udders of others that may be reclin-
ing. In milking, the hands OF mixers
should be scrupulously clean. The last
drop of milk should be drawn when
milking because it is the richest, but,
more important, because no milk
should be allowed to remain in the
teat canal for the propagation of bac-
terra.

of the tail to the other heel. Then
twist each hind foot until the knee
sticks out through the slit in the skin.
Pass the fingers between the muscle
and the skin to separate them and
break the skin at the base of the tail
SO that the bone may be pulled through

is then convenient to hang the carcass
by the hamstrings as high as the OPP
orators head, from iron pins driven
eight inches apart into horizontal
scantling. By using the knife lit
tie around the TANKS, shoulders, eyes,
and lips and by severing the ears from
the skull, the skin may be stripped
from the body, inside out, as glove
is turned from a hand. If care is
taken the skin may be removed whole,
thus preserving the pelt and at the
same time leaving no hairs on the
meat.
Unless one is killing great many
rabbits, it is usually preferable to sell
the dried skins to local fur buyer,
who will bale and ship for several
producers. When there are a large
number of skins they may be piled
between upright scantlings as stove
wood is piled and kept thus until
enough have accumulated to make a
bale. They should then be baled I'M
