Nance Prepares Folder
On Home Meat Curing
The low price of hogs on the
market has led to increased interest
in curing meat at home this winter
and to aid farmers in this work, thr
agricultural extension service of
State College has prepared a brief
folder on the subject. The publica
tion is available now, free of charge,
to those requesting it.
For more than two years R. F.
Nance, associate professor of animal
husbandry at the college, has ,been
holding a number of meat cutting
and curing demonstrations about
over the State. Reports from coun
ty agents indicate that this work has
been very useful and that many
farmers have adopted the sugges
tions given. So many questions
were asked at these demonstrations
that Mr. Nance has embodied the
more important of these in the new
folder and has attempted to give
concise answers.
The new publication shows the
cuts of meat to be found in the c <r
cass of the hog, the beef animal and
the lamb. The materials in pre
paring an animal for curing and the
formula of the brine and dry cures ;
are given., A few general facts
about the work are also Included.
— The extension service printed only
'5.000 copies of the new folder but
these will be sent out on request as
long as the supply lasts. The publi
cation may be had on application to
the agricultural editor at State Col
lege.

ILLUSION:
The stage is all set for target practice. The magician
lifts his bow and aims an arrow at the bull’s-eye. His
lovely assistant then steps in front of the target and
he shoots the arrow—apparently through her—and it
fixes itself in the very center of the bull’s-eye! And
she smiles through it all while the audience gasps.
EXPLANATION:
The arrow which the marksman “shoots through” his
assistant simply folds up into the crossbow! The
arrow which is actually embedded in the target is shot
by the girl herself from a belt concealed under her
dress. She releases a little spring, the arrow unfolds,
and shoots straight into the bull’s-eye! It is all done in
a flash! So quickly the eye cannot detect the girl’s
movements! To heighten the impression that the ar
row has gone right through, the girl releases a ribbon
from the front of her dress—the continuation, appar
ently, of the ribbon attached to the arrow in the target.
—
It’s fun to be fooled —
...it’s more fun to KNOW
Like to see through tricks? Then let’s
look at another... the illusion in ciga
rette advertising called “Cigarettes
and Your Throat.”
The audience is told that by certain
magic processes tobacco can be made
as soothing as cough medicine.
explanation: The easiest cigarette
on your throat is the cigarette that is
made from the choicest ripe tobaccos.
Cheap, raw tobaccos are, as you would
naturally expect, harsh in their effects
upon the throat.
If you have to consider your throat,
the quality of the tobacco in your
cigarette is important.
It is a fact, well known by
leaf tobacco experts, that
Camels are made from finer,
MORE EXPENSIVE tobaccos than
any other popular brand.
Camels are as non-irritating as a ciga
rette can be because Camels use choice,
ripe, tobaccos.
And because of the matchless blend
ing of these costlier tobaccos Camels
have a rich bouquet and aroma... a
{ cool, delicious flavor.
k Keep the air-tight, welded
Humidor Pack on your Camels
A ... to assure yourself and your
A companions a fresh, cool smoke.
