Kaltiug Frozen Pork.
At best tins is a hard climate t3
keep pi.rk in so that it will remain
good and sweet in the barrel all sum
ou Farmers f.-om the Manitoba to
the Iowa line are more or less troubled
in
this respect. Whether it is thj
quality oi the salt used that pork
does not keep sweet, or the way in
t\hich it is packed, the hot summer
leather, or the fault of the cellars in
uhich it is stored, no one pretends to
know. A few tanners have mas
tered the situation, but many have
not. e are assured by prominent
pork packers hi the west that one
cause of pork not keeping nio§ and
sweet is because it is sometimes salt
ed and packed in the barrel while it
is frozen, and when put down in that
condition it is bound to spoil long bo
fore the hot summer is parsed.
I The following is the receipt of the
Oermantown Telegraph for curing
meat. That paper publishes it annu
jally, and it is claimed that meat cured
just in the manner prescribed always
keeps sweet.
As the season has arrived when
curing meat is in order, we republish
as of old, our famous receipt lor cur
ing beef, pork, mutton, hams, etc., as
follows:
••To one gallon of water take 1 1-2
lbs. of salt, 1-2 lb. sugar, 1-4 oz. salt
peter, 1-2 oz. potash." Omit the pot
ash unless you can get the pure
article. Druggists usually keep it.
In this ratio the pickle can be in
creased to any quantity desired. Let
those be boiled together until all tiie
dirt from the sugar rises to the top
and is skimmed off. Then throw it
into a tub to cool, and when cold pour
it over your beef or pork. The meat
must be well covered with pickle and
should not be put down lor at least
two days after killing, during which
time it should be slightly sprinkled
with powdered saltpeter, which re
moves ii!1 the surface blood, etc.,
leaving the meat fresh and clear.
Some omit boiling the pickle and find
it to answer well, though the opera
tion of boiling purifies the pickle by
throwing off the dirt always to be
iound in salt and sugar. If this re
ceipt is strictly followed it will re
quire only a single trial to prove its
superiority over the common way, or
most ways, of putting down meat, and
will not soon lie abandoned for any
other. The meat is unsurpassed for
sweetness, delicacy and freshness of
color.
The Presbyterian University at
Pierre closed its lirst terti ou Thurs
day. the 20th of leceii$#r, with ex
aminations occupying ptft of Wed
nesday and all of Thursday. Thurs
day night the literary society gave its
lirst public exercises, consisting of
declamations, essays and a debate.
The second term opens January 3,
when there will beau increased at
tendance. Light counties, Roberts,
Brown, Brookings, .Bon Ilomme,
Miner, Hand, sully and Hughes are
represented among the students.
Another building has been secured
tor the accommodation of students.
The aide president, the Rev. T. X.
Findley, is very much encouraged by
the results thus far achieved by his
school. His success as an educator is
now certain.
Canton is struggling to secure the
removal of the JJeJoit college to the
west side of the Sioux. A town which
secures the location of a good college
gets a benelit which is worth more to
it than people at lirst tlush appreciate,
and if there is anything in reason
which our Canton friends can do to
provide them with a good higher edu
cational institution, they ought not
neglect the opportunity. Sioux Falls
is beginning to know better than ever
that she did a most excellent thing for
herself in capturing the Dakota col
legiate instit ue and the territorial deaf
mute institution, and the Silsbee com
mercial college and befere another
Christmas she will have a young
lady's seminary unequaled in the ter
ritory. The three educational enter
prises already in operation bring
scores of people to the city who
would not otherwise come, and have
increased..the population and the
business very materially.
