The' English Mode of Outing Bacon.
Americans visiting England are often struck
with tbe'supertority of English bacon over our
own, particularly that from, Wilts and York-
shire. It is believed that the difference is
owing solely to the mode of preparation. We
publish the following recipe as furnished by
Mr. Browne, of the Agricultural Bureau of the.
Patent Office. It is worthy of the attention
Our agricultural readers:
- "As soon as the bacon comes from-4he
butcher's hands it should have a covering 'of
salt, dried and rolled to a - fine powder, well
Tubbed in with the hand to every part, using
the finger-to fill every hole. and joint, as it is
most important that the meat should take.the
salt when quite fresh. In twelve hours all
the brine and damp salt not absorbed should
be scraped off the bacon and removed from the
vessel, and dry salt added agai n, as much as
needed to cover it, as liefore, - and well rubbed
in. This process should be repeated. every
twelVe, hours for three days, when saltpetre
should be added, getting off previously all the
damp salt and brine as her - ore; and applying
the saltpetre as the common salt, adding a
handful of the latter. A quarter of a pound of
saltpetre to a side of bacon weighing seventy
pounds is sufficient ; then mix one pound of
coarse brown sugar, one pound of treacle or
molasses, and - pour over the saltpetreon ; the
bacon. adding a little more common salt daily
for three days, which serves to make the pickle
keep well, and the whole liquor should be la
dled with a teacup over the bacon as often as
convenient, four times a day for the first two
weeks after it was first put to the bacon, and
then never less than twice' a day for the re
mainder of the time needed for its pickling,
which is four weeks, or longer if large bacon ;
and then it should be sent to the drying house,
and smoked over a wood fire."
Useful Recipes.
Birds-Mst Pie.—Take a deep baking tin,
and set as many apples in it as will cover the
bottom. Pare them and remove-the core from
one end ; make a custard and fill each apple as
it is placed in the dish. Then . make a thick
Soar batter, pour over the whole and bake one
tour. Serve with sour sauce.
Boiled Pot-Pie.—Take two quarts of apples,
pared, cored, and quartered; put them into a
pot or kettle, and sprinkle pn a little sugar,
grated nutmeg, and pour in water enotigh_to
boil them. Then make a light saleratus crus.t
and roll one inch thick, of the size of the ket•
tle, and lay ken the apples, boil three-fourths
of an bOur. without . cessation. Propar . e the
sauce to the same way as for pie_above.
Pala& Yeast.—Pare, boil and mash smooth
twelve potatoes; stir into these one large cup
of sugar and one quirt of boiling water; when
cool add one quart of cold water, and half a
-pint or less of yeast: keep it in a warm place
about twelve hours, when it will be wady for
use. Shake it carefully before using; always,
reserve a small qttantity of old yeast for rais
ing the new. Bread or cakes made with this
yeast never need saleratus, and will raise
quickly. I trust housekeepers generally will
try this. and dispense with the unwholesome
article ot saleratus.
Soft Gingerbread.--One cup of butter ; two
of molasses ; one of milk ; three eggs; one
table•spoonfnl of saleratus; beat it well, and
bake it in a quick even.
To Stop Potato-Rotting.
Au experienced agriculturist informs us
that about six -years ago he applied slaked
lime to potatoes that were partly rotten, and
it immediately arrested the decay.--Potatoes
that were partly rotten when the lime was ap
plied, remained as they were, the progress of
the rot being stopped, while potatoes to which
the lime was not applied, continued to rot and
were lost. Since then. hehas made it a
practice to apply slaked lime to his potatoes as
be takes them up. He puts a thin layer of
lime upon the floor where the potatoes are to
be laid, and sprinkles some of it over the po
tatoes—about every ten inches, as they are put
down. He considers this as perfectly protect
ing them from rotting, as he has never had a
rotten potato since he has practiced and he
believes also that potatoes thus used are ren
dered better by the action of lime. We ad
vise the tanners to try this plan, as it can
early be done by them all.
How Inch Should a Cow Eat T
Cows to give milk, require more food than
most farmers imagine. S. NV. Johnson, writ
ing from Munich to the Country Gentleman,
gives an interesting report of some experi
ments which have been made in ilavaria, from
which the ro - llowing is an extract :
:"Our trials have confirmed the view that
cows to give the greatest possible quantity of
milk must daily receive and consume one
thirtieth of their live weight in hay, or an
equivalent'therefor. If more food be given it
goes to the formation of flesh and fat, w t
occasioning a corresponding increasw• in the
field o€ inilt ; but -if on the-cont „
be furnished, the amount and value of the milli
will be greatly diminshed."
Oz:rThe inurnal of Health nays: "Ist. A
wan out of money can't be happy. 2GI. A titan
out of health can't be happy. 3d. A man with
out a wife can't he happy.—Therefore, I have
COMO 40 the conclusion, that the best way to
be happy is to tahe cam of yuur health, keep
out of debt, and get a wife."
