NOW READY.
The Only Way to Cure Pork.
First, salt pork with plain salt
by rubbing- on and spreading out,
say 12 hours, then apply to hams
and shoulders as follows: Salt 10
lbs., brown sugar 2 lbs., salt
p ?tr3 2 ounces, red pepper 1 ounce
to 100 lbs. of pork; rub and
apply freely. Sides resalt. If
killing is done while weather is
cool, say frosty, meat may not
be stored for four to five days
after butchering, but if warm it
should be stored within 12 hours.
Do not cut off chin bone, as this
ruins the ham, and in storage
they cure as well with chin
left on.
Time to be stored: Thirty days
is sufficient. When taken from
storage wash in warm water,
wipe dry, sew up in canvas or
homespun hang up and smoke
every third day for two we:jks.
Use green hickory wood for
smoking.
Salt furnished at a reasonable
price.

IT'S USELESS TO DENY
that banks offer greater security for mone y than
anywhere else. You might lend money at a big
profit; you micJht buy real estate on a rising value,
and you MIGHT invest in gilt-edged bonds with good
security; but ou might lose on them all. But you
CAN'T lose money when it's safe in bank, and you
MUST win profit while it's earning interest. Two
most convicing proofs that banks offer the best
security for your money. This bank does.
