CURING MEAT

ON THE FARM
(From the Georgia Experiment Sta
tion, Experiment, Ga.)
Farmers should be able to raise
hogs and cure the meat at home for
much less than the cost of purchas
ed meat. Enough meat for home
consumption should always be cured.
Where a trade can be established for
country- cured meats it is advisible
to take advantage of the profits to
be had and cure additional meat in
connection with that needed for home
consumption.
The first essential in curing pork
is to make sure that the carcass is
thoroughly cooled. The ideal tem-
perture for meat curing is about 38
degrees Fahrenheit. ’ Meat should
not be allowed to freeze either before
or during the process of curing.
There are two methods of curing
pork—the dry cure and the sweet-
pickle or brine cure. The dry cure is
more generally used, as it is simpler
and requires less handling of the
meat. The brine cure is very satis
factory, however, if the temperature
can be regulated or kept from run
ning up during the curing period.
A temperature ranging above 50 de
grees Fahrenheit retards the curing
and there is danger of the meat
spoiling. In curing meat by either
method it is advisable to rub the sur
face of the meat with fine salt and
allow it to drain, flesh side down,
for 8 or 10 hours before the real cur
ing process is started.
If the dry-curing method is to be
used the following mixture is needed:
For each 100 pounds of meat use 8
pounds of salt, 2 1-2 pounds molas
ses or syrup (warmed slightly), 2
ounces black:, pepper and 2 ounces
red pepper. Mix the ingredients
well, rub the meat thoroughly with
the mixture and pack in a barrel or
box. On the third day unpack the
meat and repack it to insure thorough
contact with the cure mixture, then
allow it to remain until the cure ; s
completed. Small pieces cure more
rapidly than large pieces, therefore,
it is advisible to know the weights
of the different cuts in order to cure
all pieces properly. Allow two days
in cure for each pound that the indi
vidual pieces of meat weigh; for ex
ample a 15 ib. ham will require 30
days in cure while a 10 lb. cut will re
quire only 20 days. By placing the
heavy cuts at the bottom of the bar
rel or box it will not be necessary to
move them in taking out the smaller
cuts as they are cured. After the
meat is cured hang it in the smoke
house without washing.
When meat is to be cured by the
sweet-pickle or brine method the fol
lowing mixture should he prepared
the day before it is to be used, so
that all ingredients will have time
to dissolve: For each 100 pounds of
meat use 9 pounds of salt (10 pounds
if weather is warm), 2 1-2 pounds
of sugar or 4 pounds molasses or
syrup, 2 ounces of saltpeter, and 4 1-2
gallons water. This mixture should
be boiled gently for about one hour
and set aside to cool before using.
Be sure that the mixture is cool
when applied to the meat. Place
the hams on the bottom of the con
tainer, shoulders next, bacon sides
and small cuts on top. Cover with
boards and weight down with stones
or bricks. Do not use iron weights
as the rust would stain the meat.

Changes featured in the new Ford Sedan make it a better look
ing, roomier car.
A higher radiator with a trim apron at its base lends dignity
befitting a closed car. The higher hood and enlarged cowl
curving gracefully to the dash give a stylish sweep to its body
lines, and afford additional leg room lor occupants of the front
seat
All body fittings—window regulators, door grips, door latch
levers, door lock, dome light—are finished in nickel. The
upholstery carries a fine dark line on a soft brown background
that does not easily show dust or dirt. Silk window curtains
to harmonize for the three rear windows enhance the style of
the car and add to the comfort of its passengers. See the new
Sedan and other new Ford body styles at our showroom.
These cars can be obtained through
the Ford IVeekly Purchase Plan.
