To every 1000 pounds of pork put three quarters bushel of salt, two and a half pounds brown sugar, and two and a half pounds saltpetre, half a gallon of molasses. Mix all together, and rub on well, first hams, then shoulders, and then mid- dlings. Keep in salt four weeks, then hang them up, and smoke them occasionally, for four or five weeks, with green hickory wood.
