(Special lo Tlu- Nassau I'ost.) ALBANY, Nov. 12.—-In order to facilitate the registration and the identification of the quarter of mil¬ lion automobiles of 1916, New York State is to be divided into three dis¬ tinct automobile zones during the «omlng year, according to an an¬ nouncement forthcoming from the ofllce of Secretary of State Francis M. Hugo. The registration plates in each zone will be distinctive, making It an easy matter for tiie ordinary person to recognize at a glance the section from which the automobile comes.
The number plates to be used In the Buffalo zone wlll carry the letter "B" before the numbers, while the plates In the so-called Albany zone will carry the letter "A" in a like po¬ sition. The New York City zone plates will be without alpTiabetical char¬ acterization. The boundaries of each zone are determined by a rule already formulated by the department.
The number plates for next year will possess a distinctive feature in thst they will be hyphenated; those of flve flgures having a dash between the second and third numerals, there¬ by separating the hundreds from the' thousands and making It a compara¬ tively easy matter for the motorcycle oflicer, the patrolman or other officers of the law to catch and remember the number of a car.
OCEANSIDE RESIDENT REGOHEBING FROM SERIOUS ATTACK OF PUEDHONIA
FULL DIRECTIONS GIVEN IN NEW CIRCULAR ISSUED FREE OF CHAROE.
Meat may be treated for preserva¬ tion to a much greater extent than is now the case on the farm, according to a circular of the Cornell Univer¬ sity agricultural experiment station. At present pork is practically the only meat so treated, but beef, mutton, and lamb may also be cured, and their flavor and palatability may be im¬ proved by the process. Some parts Oi the animal carcass, however, are of greater value iu the fresh state than when preserved, and such parts may be satisfactorily kept for a consider¬
able period if a-contant storage tem¬ perature below 40 degrees Fahrenheit Is maintained, or if the meat is kept frozen. *
Full directions for curing meats are given in this Circular No. 27, en¬ titled "The Curing of Meat and Meat Products on the Farm." It Includes recipes for sugar-curing hams, bacons and tongues, for preparing brine salt pork, dry-cured pork, pickled pigs' feet, headcheese and lard, for corning beef, for pressing corn beef, for dried beef and pickled beef tongues, for pickling mutton and lamb, and for many kinds pf domes¬ tic sausages. Directions are also giv¬ en for smoking meats. In this pro¬ cess It is pointed out that care must be taken to use a proper fuel, prefer¬ ably green hickory, in order to secur* a desirable flavor.

The Bellmore pig farm, located on .Maple avenue in Beilmore is one of the most interesting institutions which we have noted in some time and especially so since at this par¬ ticular time they are celebrating their tliird anniversary.
Early In 1912 two of New York's prominent business men, Daniel Webb, proprietor of the Broadway Central Hotei, and Horace D. Benja¬ min, for 20 years in the controller's department of the Adams Expreas Company, finally decided that theu- fleld was "pigs" and the Bellmore farm was started. Its history is a most interesting one.
Upon visiting the farm you will
flnd only blooded stock, Poland China, Berkshire and Chester Whites, exclu¬ sively. Toby, the main boar, is of pedigreed stock; Sambo, his mate, also tl>«roughbred stock, cost $800. The boars weigh between six and seven hundred pounds each.
What appeals to one most is the numerous litters of young pigs. Last week there were ".(} young pigs born, a fair weekly average. A new pig¬ gery lias just been completed which vvill house several hundred pigs.
Messrs. Webb and Benjamin take great pride in their outside kitchen, where all the meals, served to the pigs, are cooked. Tills, they say, seems to interest tlie lady visitors most. They liave also'provided a dis¬ pensary for the treatment of all ail¬ ments of the young pigs.
All are cordially invited to visit the farm and make an inspection, and, indeed, tlie time wiil be well spent.
