always selected for breeding purposes, rather than undersized misfits that are not suited for work or sound enough to market. Furthermore, they should be of the same breed, if possible and most certainly of the same general type and conformation as the stallion available for ser. vice.
Often promising sires are ruined by excessive service before maturity, and sterility accom- panies such activities. A well-fed, growthy two-year-old draft stallion might safely breed ten mares during his first season, one each week; but never more and better less. As a three-year-old the conservative number twenty-five, as a four-year-old the limit should be fifty; while the mature stallion should seldom if ever make more than two covers per day. It is estimated that on an average three covers are made for each foal a stallion begets, for so many mares are irregular breeders. If a stallion settles 50 or 65 per cent of the total number of mares bred he is doing his duty well. The important thing to remember is that it is what a stallion leaves behind him in number of foals that fixes his value, rather than the number of mares bred; and that over exertion, either at work or in the stud, taxes his vitality and les- sens his usefulness."

KILLING AND CURING MEATS.
Are farmers returning to "Hog Killin" day? If they are not figuring on doing this why are so many asking for details of the system used by Henry J. Waters, president of the Kansas Agricultural College, in curing and smoking meats? Nothing more interesting has come up in recent years. Within a month the demand for this kind of information has grown with the most remarkable rapidity. Since the direc- tions were first printed, nearly a year ago, let- ters have never ceased coming; but recently, since work began on a slaughter house for the college in which to work out all these details before the students-since the instituting of a course teaching this kind of work-the inter- est has increased amazingly. Farmers in Idaho and in Maine, in Texas and in Montana have written asking for directions, saying they had lost their original copies. Here, a little more fully, are the rules as used in President Water's own operations of killing and curing:
To 1,000 pounds of meat take the following: 40 pounds of common salt
10 pounds New Orleans sugar
4 pounds black pepper
112 pounds saltpetre.
-
1/2 pound cayenne pepper.

Weigh the meat and take such part of the ingredients as that is a part of 1,000. Lct the mcat cooi thoroughly. After thoroughly mixing the ingredients, one-half of the amount should be rubbed weil into the mcat. Put the meat in a dry-cool place. Let it remain two weeks, then rub on the remainder of the cure and Ict it lie about six weeks, when it is ready to hang. In some states the meat may be put in a cellar, but only if the ccilar be thoroughly dry. The ruie "Never in a cellar," would apply to Mis. souri, but in Kansas one might easily have a suitahle piace under ground. Never usc a warnı or moist place.
It is important that the meat be weil rub- bed each time the cure is applied, and that plenty of the cure be forced into the hock end and around the joints. Less cure should be used on the thin sides than on the joints. The heavier and fatter the meat, the longer the time required for curing. The warmer the weather, the quicker the meat will take the cure. The best time to kili will be in cool weather after December 1 to February 1. You can kill in November if the weather is cool, but there is much danger that it will turn warmer again. Kill at the beginning of the cold wave. You will produce the finest flavor if you give the meat two or three months of cool weather,

hanging, before the warm days come. About the right size hog is 175 to 225 pounds, and 180 to 190 pounds for a handy size ham. You should have a March or April hog.
While In general a light straw color would indicate sufficient smoking, it is always safe to try a piece of thin bacon or shoulder to be certain that the process has been carried far enough to give proper flavor, to cure. The hams may be kept one, two or three years without detriment, and will improve in flavor up to the end of at least two years. No deter- ioration will take place for even five years if a ham is properly cured.
Smoking should be done slowly. It should occupy four to six weeks, a little every day, and with little heat. Slow smoking gives a delicate flavor. After the smoking is finished wrap each piece in paper, put in an unwash- ed flour sack and hang in a dry place.
The brine cure requires the same materials, minus the pepper. When the meat has cooled rub it with salt and let it drain over night. Pack in a clean barrei with the heavy pieces, hams and shoulders, at the bottom. For every 100 pounds use 8 pounds of salt, 2 pounds brown sugar, and 2 ounces of saltpetre. Dissolve in

four gallons of water and cover the meat with it. Thin sldes should remain in this four to six weeks and hams six to eight weeks. After it has drled thoroughly smoke as in the dry cure.
Shoulders should be cured with the hams. For eating until June 15 they are as good as ham, and cheaper.
How shall you determine just when the meat has been cured: Take one of the shoulders, saw off two or three steaks and note the color of the lean. If the inner muscles are turning a red tinge and the outer muscles are quite red, the indications are that it is sufficiently cured. It is best to fry these steaks. Ir the outside is a bit too salty and the inside not salty enough, it is time to quit curing. Hang it up for smok- ing.
Here are a few figures showing what should be procured from a 250 pound hog:
35 pounds ham.
30 pounds shoulders.
25 pounds thick sides.
21 pounds thin sides.
30 pounds lard.
40 pounds spare rib, head, feet, back bone.
18 pounds sausage.

THE POTATO.
Edited by Prof. J. C. Hogenson.
The potato is a native of the valleys of Chili, Peru and Mexico. The wild potatoes of these regions differ from the cultivated form in that they produce seed balls more freely. Tobacco, tomato, egg-plant, etc., all beiong to the potato family. Potatoes were introduced into Virginia during the latter part of the sixteenth century. It had become a common article of diet among the colonists and Indlans along the Atlantic coast as early as 1722. In Europe, with the ex- ception of Ireland, potato growing made littie progress until the middle of the eighteenth century.
The potato is an annual. It has smooth, solid, more or less square herbaceous stems. The leaves are compound and are composed of oval leaflets. The flowers are borne in clusters each having a five-pointed coralla and varying in color from white to purple.
The tuber is an underground stem, and the eyes are equivalent to leaf buds on the branch of a tree. The potato is therefore a colony of individuals of which the eye is the unit.
Potatoes do best on light soils which should be well prepared before planting the crop. Po-

tatoes require a deep, loose bed so that the roots may penetrate it freciy and the tubers form and expand without troubic from hard jumps and baked soii. About four inches is the proper depth to plant potatocs. The most profitabic time to cut sced potatoes is just before piant- ing. Experiments have shown that a half potato on the average will give better and more profit. able yieid than either a whole potato or smalier pieces. The potato should be cut in two length- wise. Large seed usually insures a larger yield than smail seed. This may be due to the greater nourishment furnished to the young piants, which enables them to make stronger growth, and to the greater hereditary vigor possessed by such tubers. The advisability of using large or small seed, cut or whole, depends largely upon the cost of seed, the season and the cui- ture given. Generally speaking, tubers weigh- ing two or three ounces make the most profit. able seed.
Some of the points which determine the value of a variety of potatoes are: 1, good cooking quality and fiavor; 2, the yield; 3, ability to resist diseases; 4, the color of the skin and tuber; 5, the shape; 6, the depth and number of eyes. The Americans like a nice mealy po- ·ato. This mealy quality is due to the union of the starch grains in a cell into one mass, and

the rupture of the cell walls during cooking. Potatoes which have been irrigated a great deal are usually not of such good quality as those sparingly watered. Quality also depends upon the temperature in which the tuber has been produced. Those buried deep enough in the soil to have grown in an even temperature are always better than those grown near the surface where the temperature has varied.
Potatoes with white or pinkish skin and white flesh and which are slightly flattened and round or oval are the best marketable potatoes. Shallow eyed potatoes are better than deep eyed ones. Some good varieties are: Early Rose, Early Ohio, Peerless, Burbank, Rural New Yorker, Carmen No. 3, Eureka, Early Bangor, Early Six Weeks and 20th Cen- tury.
Potatoes are usually planted in rows about 30 inches apart and 12 inches apart in the row. They may be planted either by hand or with a planter, depending upon the size of the piece to be planted. Cultivation is profitable not so much to kill weeds, but to increase the yield by 1, liberating plant food; 2, by maintaining good texture; 3, by conserving moisture; 4, by keeping weeds in check.
