II has said that nothing
can be accomplished
without man power and ade-

plainly true.
Mere willingness to die is
not enough.
Our soldiers and sailors are
willing to die. and are dying
in the Philippines.
But unsupported they may
die and fail, while properly
reinforced and equipped they
might be victorious and live.
Commissioner Sayre, re-
turning from the Philippines
and bearing his message, to
Washington says:

CURING GOOD METHOD
OF PRESERVING MEAT

With preservation of meat Of prime
Importance at the present time curing
has been suggested by Miss Eleanore
Davis. extension nutritionist at the
State College of Washington, as a
method which requires little materials
needed in the war effort, and because
of the special flavor it gives the meat.
Although curing s ordinarily
thought Of as a means of preserving
hams and bacons, it is also satisfac-
tory for other pork cuts, such as
shoulder, jowl square and Canadian
bacon, Miss Davis asserted.
Resistance to spelling is primarily
due to- the salt, which must penetrate
can protect it. This may require as
long as two months. Sugar and salt
peter are also included in the cure:
sugar for it's flavor and saltpeter to
retain the natural red color.
MANY cases Of spoilage are caused
by curing meat in. too high tempera-
lures" Mis- Davis said Temperature
in packing plants run from SO to 36
degrees F. Unless temperatures of 40
degrees or below are certain, curing
must be, done in locker chill room or
other cool place.
Curing may be either by the brine
methd or by dry salt. A common for
mula endorsed by Miss Davis is eight
pounds of salt, two pounds Of brown
or white sugar and two ounces of salt
peter per 100 pounds of pork. This is
dissolved in from four and one-half to
six gallons of water Ham and should
er are usually cured in the stronger
solution and bacon in a weaker one.

If you've been unable to secure
chewing gum as readily as usual,
think about the shortage Of chicle, one
of its most important ingredients.
Chicle is the coagulated sap Of a tall
tropical evergreen tree, the sapodllla'
which grows wild in the 5ungles OF
Mexico, Guatemala, British Honduras
and Venezuela. 1t takes 30 years be-
fore tree produces chicle, and then
it should be tapped only once In six
SEASONS. But the main difficulty is
that shipping space is scarce for the
Importance of chicle. And then per-
haps there is an increase of steno'
graphers chewing gum, for consumer
demand is greatly increased. and there
are large purchase of gum by the
armed forces This years output al
most equals the 1941 record of lo bill
lion sticks of gum chewed.

About four days in cure Is allowed for
each pound Of weight per cut of meat.
The same amount or slightly less OF
the same mixture is used for the dry
cure, Miss Davis said. Half the mix
ture is rubbed into the pork, and
three days later the remaining half is
rubbed in: Each cut Is left two days
for each pound of weight. Pork, wheth
er cured in brine or dry should be ex-
amined occasionally and red1stributed
in the container, Miss Davis warned.
Although smoking does have some
preventative value its chief purpose is
to impart It's special flavor.

Outlook Is Bright
For Winter Wheat

Because of the cool spring and am
pie rainfall, grain men and expert
enced crop observers say that winter
wheat in Montana is in perfect" con-
dition. While cautioning that hot
winds may still change the picture.
all agree that indications now point
to very good crop.
There was almost no winter killing
in north central Montana.
Moisture last year was extremely
favorable to weed growth on summer
fallow. so that weed killing programs
were highly efficient. Hence, wheat
sown on the summerfallow last fall
and now nearing the boot stage IS
remarkably free from weeds.
The excellent crop prospect. coupled
with wheat prices higher than last
year, are joint assurances that Mon
tana's farmers this fall will have as
much money to spend as in any previ-
GUS year, observers generally believe.

Your Victory Garden
Vegetables Keep Better in the Garden

The garden Is better place to keep
vegetables fresh than the refrigerator.
The economy Of a garden is seldom
considered from this viewpoint but 1t
is an important one. There is no waste
from storage. The vegetables are kept
at their best quality while growing.
They may get over-mature II left too
long in the soil but they keep where
they grow. and only a quantity suf-
ficient for a meal need be gathered,
leaving the rest to remain In tip-top
condition for another day and another
meal
garden saves a lot OF room In the
ice box and provides better quality
vegetables than can possibly be gath
cred from the refrigerator or from the
cold storage plant OF the grocery.
Homegrown, vegetables do not suffer
as do market supplies from wilt from
being left in the sun.
Homegrown vegetables are cleanest.
of best quality, and a real economy.
Clean spinach for the baby is the in
centive for many a garden start. The
wilted and sand-laden greens often on
sale at the green grocers cannot COM
pare with the fresh, crisp leaves that
may be gathered in the backyard patch

OF MONTANA

Metals Reserve Co schedules COW
ering manganese ores asSaying as low

chrome ores assaying as low as IS

been received by the Mining Associa-
ton OF Montana
According to semiofficial notices re-
ceived by Carl j. Trauerman, secre-
tary-manager Of the association, engi-
neers OF the Metals Reserve Co. will
buy and stockpile manganese ores as
saying from Is to IS percent metallic
manganese. The low grade schedule
has not yet been released but should
become effective in a short time.

long dry ton, +. o. b. stockpile loca-
ton, with railroad freight allowed.
Forty percent ore is priced at S26
per long dry ton, with railroad freight
allowed to the stockpile. On the IS
and 40 percent ores there is no pen
atty for alumina, iron and silica. How
ever, these ores will not be accepted
if they assay over l percent zinc and
over one-half of percent phosphorus.
The base price for chrome ores con-
tanning 40 percent chronic oxide is
s24 per long dry ton, with railroad
freight allowed to stockpile point. Ores
containing IS percent chronic oxide
bring price of sl8 per long dry ton,
with railroad freight allowed to the
stockpile point. On the ores between
80 and 40 percent there is no penalty
for silica, phosphorus or iron-chro-
MUM ratio.
Both manganese and chrome ores
are subject to size specifications and
other details.
According to additional advices re-
ceived by the mining association, a
station for manganese ores
shortly will be established in the Butte
area and the association is urging that
the same agency be authorized to pur-
chase both high and low grades of
ores, tungsten ores. antimony
ores and ores of other strategic metals,
Until that agency is established, any,
one desiring to sell manganese or
chrome ores assaying IS percent or
higher in carload lots or more should
get in touch with the Metals Reserve
Co. at Washington.

Big PRODUCTION
OF SEED URGED
GREATER LIVESTOCK MARKET
ING BRINGS ADDED DEMANDS
FOR PASTURE CROPS

Because heavier livestock market
fngs being stimulated to meet wartime
needs for meat will bring added de-
mands for hay and pasture crops,
Montana alfalfa seed producers are
urged by Ralph D. Mercer, extension
agronomist at Montana State college,
to make every effort to produce maxi
mum yields of high quality seed to
help meet national needs.
Alfalfa seed producers of this state
are we'll known for the high quality
seed they put on the market but if
this good reputation is to be main
tanned growers must be constantly
Vlgilant in keeping quality high, he
said.
One Of the most important steps in
the production of alfalfa seed of top
quality is to thoroughly rogue out all
legume mixtures and weeds from the
alfalfa field. Sweet clover seed mixed
in with alfalfa seed is particularly in
furious to Montana's reputation as
producer Of high quality seed, he said.
Other steps suggested by Mercer for
producing better crop of alfalfa seed
are cultivation of the field two or
three times during the year to control
weed growth and cutting the first
crop between June l and 10 II the
second crop is to be left for seed. This
will allow the crop time to mature
before the first killing frost. Rogue
the field several times to get rid of all
sweet clover.
Regardless of whether the grower is
producing registered or common alfal-
ia seed, all of these points are import
ant to quality seed production, Mercer
said.
