Upsidedown to Prevent Peeking
,So You Oot A Deer
• What Now ?
you've shot a deer, so What's
next to do? If you want good,
tasty venison, not strong, the
kind your family will enjoy,
there is one thing you must do
at once:
There is no use whatever its
cutting the deer's throat. That 14
a hard-to-dispel fallacy. ,Scarcely
a spoonful of blood would be
spilled out that way, for your
bullet has already bled the deer
internally, and its whole chest
is lull of it, To get all the blood
and, the intestinal fluids out of
the body as soon as pissible be-
fore you spoil the meat, gut the
deer at once.
Gralloching, or disemboweling,
is done easier by first hanging
the deer up by the head from the
branch of a tree, but it is sel-
dom that a proper tree or rope
is availeble, and it is a hard
job for one man alone, Instead,
drag your deer over to any slight
rise in the ground where its
forequarters will lie slightly
higher than its remainder,
Then get out your sharp hunt-
ing knife and whetstone. Start
at the lower end of the breast-
bone, and slit the skin and ab-
dominal wall open down to be-
tween the back legs. As you
start this cut, place the first two
fingers of your left hand inside
the cut, and press down on the
intestines so you will not cut
them.
This exposes the intestines of
the abdominal cavity to view.
Betweenthis cavity and the
chest lies a partition called the
diaphragm, Cut this away, free
from its junction with the
lower ribs, clear down to the
backbone, Then reach inside the
now available chest cavity -
reach high up with your left
hand, grasp the windpipe and
gullet, and cut them in two
with your knife. Be very care-
ful as you do so you don't cut
your left hand,
Now turn the animal over en
its side, and you can pull all the
contents of both chest and ab-
domen out, for it is entirely free
right down to between the legs
- except for some little adhe-
sions along the backbone which
you can easily 'free with your
knife. Take great pains here not
to cut any of the intestines and
stomach. Now everything is
free. Be sure to do a good, clean
job of cutting, as it is important.
At this point, very carefully
cut around the anus and the
urinary organs,, still attached to
the intestines. Cut around their
opening in the pelvis, so that you
will remove all of them without
any of their juices getting on
the meat. Now the whole of both
cavities can be-rolled out onto
the ground and away from the
main carcass.
The cavity is now full of free
blood. Lift the deer up, turning
it over on its belly, and dump
all this blood out. Turn the deer
over again, belly up, and wipe
the entire cavity out clean and
almost dry with grass, or a piece
of cheesecloth if you have it.
Don't wash it out with water.
Now your deer is completely
'gutted; all injurious juices are
out of it, and it is time to think
about how to get it back to your
camp. There are a number of
ways you can do this.
The easiest way for two hunt-
ers to pack out a deer whole is
to use an improvised litter -
two poles about ten feet long,
joined together with four or five

ing soils by what tan be seen at
the surface of the landscape is
no longer adequate. .Due ac-
count must be taken in future of
the- possible presence of rich
workable soils below. * * *
Buried soils, of course, have
been found in other parts of the
world, but the idea of using such
soils, as indicated by the fast-
growing pines of South Austra-
. lia, has been fostered in this
country as opening a new chap-
ter in land development.
Australian scientists of the
federal government's own re-
search organization have been
• busy exploring the Possibility of
using deeply buried soils, soils
thought to be beyond thhe range
of plant roots. The idea back of
this study might be termed sub-
terranean farming, •
They • planned- to develop
plants with longer root .systerns,
long enough to. tap deep soils.
Many plants already poSsess very
long root systems-for example,
alfalfa, writes Albert B. Norman
in the Christian Science Monitor.
4= *
Thus soil considered too poor
to carry ,this particular plant
might be found, on closer ex-
amination, to be overlying rich
soils deeper down, within the
root range of alfalfa. ' Farmers
who would like to grow alfalfa
but cannot, according to surface
soil indications, might take a
deeper, look at their land.
Looking at the buried soils of
Australia, scientists have formed
the concept of "soil cycles." This
was described as the interval for
formation of a new surface in a
landscape, maturing of the sur-
face soil, and its eventual burial.
In checking the soil cycle of
come Australian soils, the radio-
carbon method had shown that
some were formed 30,000 years
ago.
Isaac insisted
On Having A Coot
Whenever 'sea? *as bored he
used, to think up a new "help the
family scheme" to present to my
mother. $he, as a rule, lrumored
him as he was not just another
old retainer but a privileged per-
son, for he had served my grand-
father $a rnik Kemalin his,
youth. Extremely intelligent and
witty, he also had a tongue as
sharp as a thorn and delighted,
in teasing all of us unmercifullY,
even my father. He did not stay
in our house but came to. see
us practically every day, Not
one Of us had ever seen the place
where he lived, how could we?
He was always in our house,
Isaac must have been really
bored the day he came to see us
with Kadife the goat. That day
we had gathered unsuspecting-
ly for breakfast, and after the
meal my mother had gone up to
her room to attend to her morn-
ing chores when Isaac burst into
the house. Instead of going to
the kitchen for his breakfast,
as was his custom, lie nimbly
climbed upstairs . to see my
mother, She was his confidante,
his treasurer, his benefactress,
as he used to: call her; and it
Was at her feet that he laid all
his impossible schemes and his
troubles which were mostly fin-
ancial.
"Hanimdjim, it does my heart
good to see you work so hard,
what with so many people' to
take care of your house. I. al-
ways say that hard work, keeps
the heart young," Isaac grim-
aced and grinned at her by way
of greetings.
"I wonder how you manage
then, for I have not seen great
evidence of your love for work,"
my mother retorted.
"Some of us work with our
hands, others with our tongues,"
he laughed. "When it comes to
working with the tongue . . ."
"You don't have to tell me!"
my _mother interrupted. "I am
quite familiar with your weak-
nesses. But you did not come
here at this early hour to watch
me work and wag your tongue.
Let me look, at you. I recognize
symptoms and signs which make
me think I am going to rue this
day as many others in the past."
"How you malign me! My
whole aim .in life is to serve you,
to make life easier for you , all.
The other day, when our rot-
und Eleni suhffled to the 'cleibr
to pick up the milk from ;fleet
good-for-nothing vendor, I heard
her say 'that if he kept adding
more water to the milk she
would not buy any more. The
subject preoccupied me. The
children's feeding was in jeop-
ardy and I wondered what
could do. I was still at it when-
I fell asleep. Can you believe it?
I woke up suddenly in the mid-dle of the night saying out loud,
'I have it! A goat would solve
the family's milk problem.'"
"A goat?" my mother repeated
aghast. "What on earth do you
mean? 'Is this one of your jokes
or another one of your schemes?
I'll have nothing to do with it,
anyhow,"
"Do "me the faitor to hear me
to the end," Isaac answered with
great patience and a sigh. "When
I followed the great Kemal into
exile on Mytilene, I soon found
out that there was not a single
cow on the island. What did the
people do? They grew healthy
and strong and lived to a ripe old
age on goat's milk There were
hundreds of goats on Mytilene,
and a prettier sight than a herd
of goats you never saw: I'd take
a goat in preference to a cow any
day. But there is more to it. Ex-
parts agree that goat's milk is
lighter, has less fat content, and
is infinitely more beneficial than
cow's "milk."
"But, Isaac, how can we keep a
goat in the city„ This ie not Myti-
lene. Who will take care of the
e.
animal, Besides,i don't know that
the children will like the taste of,
goat's milk,"
40 Haninuljim, you make the
laugh, Why, in this city people
keep all kinds of animals, oven
camels. Why not'a goat? Who will
take care of her, you ask? I
will, We had goats on the island
and I took care of them, even,
milked them myself. As for the
taste, we will soon see if the
children like it or not."
"Don't tell me ." my Moth-
er stopped her dusting and look-
ed at 'soap, who shuffled and
looked uneasy.
"I could not resist this bar-
gain," he said. "It is such a love-
ly pedigreed animal and a great
milker, I bought it for almost
nothing.e
My mother was speechless, but
we children, delighted at the
thought of owning a goat, ran
out in the garden to be followed
at once by Isaac and my mother.
It was a lovely goat with a
sleek brown coat so smooth to
the touch that we named her
Kadife or Velvet. She had large
limipd eyes, but every ounce of
her body indicated mischief.
When she saw us she tossed her
head, kicked her hind legs, and
tried in every way to free her-
self. We tried to make friends,
but all she did was to butt with
her head and show us her horns,
We had our troubles indeed.
Isaac spent the rest of the day
building her a secure enclosure
for the night. He advised us to
tie her for the first few nights
until she got used to her new
home. We did, but that night she
bleated incessantly and kept us
awake. We finally decided to un-
tie her, but the next morning
when we went into the garden
there was no sign of Kadife.
She had vanished.
A neighbor finally brought her
back saying, "Your goat almost
ate all of my garden." He was
indignant and my mother had to
make retribution and soothe his
ruffled feelings.
Milking Kadife proved to be
the greatest problem of all. Isaac
said he would do the job; he
was an expert at it, The first
time he tried his hand, he could
not even get near her; she kicked
and tossed her little head as if
to say, "You clumsy old Man,
what do you know about us?" It
took the whole family to hold
Kadife in place, and when Isaac
finally Managed to fill half a pail,
she got loose, kicked the contain-
er and took off. We spent the
rest of the day chasing her up •
the hills of our little village.
Finally a peasant woman, the
maid of one of our neighbors,
offered tee do the job at a price.
With 'all the milk in the house,
no one would touch it despite
Isaac's eloquent pleadings. ,Eleni
and our old nurse, who had often
been the butt of Isaac's teasing,
got their revenge. Every Morn-
ing at breakfast they used to
place a large bowl of milk be-
fore him,
"Drink it," they would laugh.
"It is good for you. Or are you as
good at making goat's cheese as
you are at milking?"
In the end we had to give
Kadife away, much to the regret
of us children, who .enjoyed her'
antics. My mother would not
listen to our pleadings and one
day Isaac took the goat away;
he knew of a needy family with
numerous children who would
appreciate her better than we
did.'
,When he returned he told us,
"I acknowledge defeat, but if
you had seen the joy of that poor
family you would have been
gratified and forgiven me. On
my way back here I was think-
ing ..."
"Not again, Isaac," my mother
interrupted him firmly.."Not an-
other word from you." - By Sel-
ma Ektem in the Christian Sci-

Massive changes in the soil
cycle appeared in Australia
about 5,000 years ago with dry
conditions and high winds, These
winds sorted the southeastern
soils of South Australia and
- buried the rich volcanic layers
in which the fast-growing pines
thrive today.
By reconstructing comparae
tively recent geological history,
experts can piece together bit by
bit the surface-soils ,picture. By
digging even deeper, they can
indicate soil types likely to be
found beneath the surface,

WONDERLAND REVISITED - All a-ouiver, Peter the rabbit
wiggles his nose, snaps his big ears up straight and watches
warily as he senses danger in his.pen at the London, Englond,
zoo. At the click, of the camera, Peter was gone,

about a foot apart. The deer iS
then rolled up on top and care
tied, with a mart at eaeh end
grasping the ends of the two
poles exactly as they would
carry a litter. This is far easier
than stringing the deer on. a
single pole through its roped
legs, with the body hanging
down, and each man shouldering
an end Of the pole.
The easiest Way of all, if you
are an old timer, is to 'butcher
the deer where it lies, and carry
the 'quarters out piecemeal on a
Peck board. But this method
brings up certain considerations.
The laws of some states require
that the entire carcass be taken
to a checking station where it
can be weighed, and the legality
of its killing determined. Butch-
ering on the spot is impossible in
this case,
When you get through gutting
your deer, be sure to separate
the heart, liver, and intestinal
fat from the intestines, .Place
them in a small waterproof bag
tucked away in your rucksack.

Smoking As A
Cure For Ulcers ?
His hay fever was drowning
him, and now this middle-aged
patient had come to Dr. Ralph
Bookman in Beverly Hills, Calif.,
for advice. While chatting with
the allergy specialist, he men-
tioned he had given up smoking
cagarettes a few month earlier
and had developed large ulcers
on his tongue and inside his
mouth. Then, by chance, he took
up smoking again - and the ul-
cers disappeared, What did the
doctor think?
Dr. Bookman was intrigued
but' puzzled. Now, after treating
three more men suffering sup-
posedly incurable mouth ulcers
by suggesting they smoke, he
is still puzzled. "I am not pre-
senting this as a cure for mouth
ulcers, just as an observation,"
he said of his report on the cases
in the current journal of the
California Medical Association.
"I leave it to other doctors to find
out if there is a relationship be-
tween the two things."

Billy Graham, addressing the
graduating class of a theologi-
cal seminary, said that each day
he read five Psalms and One
chapter from the Book of Pro-
verbs. The Psalms taught him
how to worship God and the
Proverbs taught him how to
get along with men. In addition,
he reads 6 pages from the Bible,
apart from his study for sermon,
preparation, In this way he
reads the Psalms and Proverbs
through each month and, the
entire Bible through each year.

The opening words of Psalm
46 have helped millions. "God
is our refuge and strength, a
very present help in trouble."
God's strength is illustrated in
His power to move mountains,
It is also emphasized by the
words, "Be still, and know that
I am God." One of our difficul-
ties in modern society is the
hurry and. rush about; like Ir-
vin Cobb's famous figure, we
mount our horse and rush madly
oN in all directions. Strength
is found in waiting quietly on
God,
In the Ephesian passage we
see the splendid equipment

Spirit, which is the Word of.
God, and constant prayer, We
can be triumphant.
This is the Temperance les-

For year's experts in Australia
had been puzzled by the very
rapid growth of pines on the
southeastern plains of South
Australia State. This was in an
area of sandy soils, wind-sorted
soils; as the geologists termed
them, low in minerals that help
provide plant nutrients. But-de-
spite this low fertility status,
these soils carried pines that
could have been growing in very
rich soils, judging by their • ree
markable' growth.
Actually, they were growing
in very rich soils. The deep root-
