MORE ABOUT Beautification (Continued from Pi|* 1> the last five years than In the 13 yean previous. He said that although the state eannot provide planting stock for highways, department personnel often can provide technical assis; tance. He added that communities which do the most on their own to beautify highways in their areas are likely to get the most help from the Highway Department. County Agent Virgil L. Hollo way said that the CDP organiza tions in the county can play a leading role In roadside develop ment, and Bob Tiffeett, assistant county agent, cited the progress which has been made by the CDP to date, M. K. Whlsenhunt, director of the Mountain Experiment Station, advised sticking to grasses and legumes, which have been used successfully on the test farm, to seed bare roadbanks. Morris L. McGough, executive secretary of the Ashevllle Agricul tural Development Council, sug gested that community groups and individual property owners might plant smaller road banks, and the Highway Department the high, steep ones. Mr. Tucker expressed the belief that Haywood Couaty needs a county-wide planning commission to handle such matters as road side beautification, and a county wide system of garbage develop ment. Roy R. Beck, county soil con servationist, explained that a num ber of test plantings of several dif ferent materials have been made recently to find stock adaptable for use on rood books in this oroo. It wos agreed ot tbo mooting Tuesday tbot organizations and In dividuals planning roadside de velopment projects will clear their plans through the county agent, who will work in cooperation with the 8oil Conservation District sup ervision.

MORE ABOUT I Ham (Continued from Pmi 1) , 6 a.m. and by noon have all the ' meat processed, and then wonder ( what caused some of It to spoil. "The best time to kill hogs is a- , bout 2 p.m., let the carcass hold j overnight, start early the next , morning when all the body heat is ( out of the meat, and then do the processing. "Then start in proper trimming, 1 and curing for the best prices from , the hams. "Hams should be in cure by Jan uary 1, and allow six months to age for flavor. There Is a need for an average of 87 degree tempera tures for aging. Curing too late in season means too high water con tent, too salty and off flavor." Dr. Christian gave formulas for curing, and said there were 23 rea sons why meat spoil. He said it takes 7 days for salt to penetrate one inch, and B days to go the second inch into a ham, and 11 more days for the third inch. He said it takes, about three months for the salt to penetrate all the way through the ham, and that salt would not penetrate much through skin and fat. He recommended the sugar cure ?8 pounds of salt, 3 pounds of sugar, and 34 ounce of saltpeter. The sugar keeps the ham from getting hard. The average ham will lose 23 per nstnt in mniahf in aiv mrsnlHa And thit 4 per cent salt is necessary to keep a cured ham. Dr. Christian discussed smok ing, pointing out that liquid smok ed hams could not be entered in i a show. He preferred hickory, ap George F. Worley of the Beaver dam HDC, Mrs. A. W. Bottoms of the Canton Council of Garden Clubs. Mrs. Paul Hyatt, district chairman of roadside development; Mrs. J. F. Pate of the Canton Gar den Club, Mrs. M. G.

He also said that no ham that had inti-skipper compound on it could ;nter a ham show. Putting on mix tures of pepper and molasses to Iceep out skippers Is a waste of time, he explained. And such mix tures harm the top sale price of hams. Hams must have eye-appeal to bring top prices, he went on to explain. Dr. Christian said proper bag ging of hams which are wrapped in hay is the best way to combat skippers. "More hams are ruined In base ments than any other place. The moisture is harmful to the meat," he said. The specialist cited three pests for home curing hams ? skippers, larder beetles (black fuzzy bugs), and mites. He gave a formula for combating each. A number of questions were ask ed, and indications were that the leaders would take the information back home, and discuss starting a ham curing project with their farm leaders. It was generally agreed that the program could best start with the 4-H Boys, and recruit the adults to take part. Dr. Christian cited some shows that averaged more thap $2 per pound and he felt the publicity, and interest in the projects would bring about a big demand for \ coun cured hams.
