A special publication, entitled "The Faun Pork Supply," Circu lar No. 262, gives information on equipment for butchering, cutting iij the meat, rendering larg, cur ing of meat, smoking, and proper storage of cured meats. It carries a series of ten photo graphs to show just how the aicass is cut into hams, fatbacks, loins, bacon, picnic shoulders, and the like. Both the dry curing and the liiine curing methods are discuss ed. Simple instructions are given as to how each type of curing may be carried out. The publication also carries sausage recipes and instructions lor the making of head cheese. Free copies of the circular may be obtained by writing the agri cultural Editor, State college, "By proper handling of meats it is easily possible to have home cured, canned, and frozen meats available throughout the whole year and at a very suDSianuai saving over what it may be pur chased in the market," Brady says. Those interested in canning meat should write for Circular No. 284. Instructions on freezing foods tor home use are given in Circular No. 280. Public Is Getting Wary Of Investigation Reports An era of investigation is un derway in Washington where the public will be given some of the highlights in connection with various war enterprises. The sen ate committee investigating the national defense program, and a house committee looking Into the disnosal of surplus war property are beginning to produce sensa tional stories. The picture that the public gets will be distorted because it will show only isolated instances in a tremendous num ber if transactions. If the com mittees are not careful in their revelations their work will be dis counted by the public which is beginning to be wary of conges- sional "disclosures.
