A November 6 wedding is planned Hog Skins Are Suitable For Treatment Of Burns RALEIGH-Hog skins, a relatively new by-product of the meat packing industry, are proving especially beneficial in the treatment of victims of severe burns. Production of the skins in volume is now possible because of the recent development of a mechanical pig skinner. The Burn Treatment Skin Bank at Phoenix, Ariz., receives carefully selected hog skins flown in daily and uses them to prepare dressings for burn patients throughout the United States. Medical authorities say the dressings are particularly suitable for such use because the cell structure of hog skin is similar to that of human skin. ' The special dressings reduce the burn victim's pain and guard against infection and loss of body fluid until they can be replaced by grafted human skin. Lives are saved and hospital stays shortened. Animal scientist Dr. E. R. Barrick of the Agricultural Experiment Station at North Carolina State University said this is one of numerous examples of how byproducts from meat packing benefit people. It is often said that packers have learned to use "everything but the squeal" from hogs and other meat animals. The list of useful by-products, including everything except the meat carcass, runs well above 100 items used in medicine, sports, industry and the home. "Consumer meat prices would be considerably higher if it were not for the returns that packers receive for the many by-products of the industry," Barrick said. From earliest times people have used animal hides for wearing apparel and other purposes. Except for wool, leather has been by far the most valuable byproduct over the years and it still is. A 1,000 pound steer yields only about 432 pounds of retail beef as steaks, roasts and ground beef, according to the National Live Stock and Meat Board, Chicago. The remainder of the animal provides variety meats, such as liver, tongue, kidneys and sweetbreads; pharmaceuticals, including insulin, estrogen, thyroid extract and others; edible byproducts, such as oleo stock and oil, gelatin, canned meat and natural sausage casings; and a long list of inedible by-products. Sheep skins still are used for diplomas, but pig skins for making footballs have been replaced by cow hides, which also form the covering for baseballs. "Catgut," from the intestines of meat animals, produces strings for tennis rackets and musical instruments, as well as surgical sutures. Birth Mr. and Mrs. George W. Davis, Jr., of Richmond, Va., announce the birth of a son, Matthew Harmon, on September 4 . The infant weighed seven pounds 13 one-half ounces. Mrs. Davis is the former Gayle Serls of Warrenton. TARHEEL KITCHEN By MISS E. YORK K1KEK The apple is probably the most famous fruit in history. It may nave been an apple that tempted Eve, but it has been a blessing to mankind ever since. Scholars agree apples may have indeed originated in southwest Asia where the Bible places the Garden of Eden. North Carolina is the first major apple shipper, and ranks seventh nationally in apple producing. Apples are the most important fruit in North Carolina and growers expect to harvest about six and a half million bushels Despite the whims of the weather and various problems, prospects are good for plenty of high quality apples. Prices will be in line with the cost of production and marketing. The majority of North Carolina apples are marketed through more than forty packing houses North Carolina apples are available to consumers through local grocery stores, roadside markets, and in a few cases at pick-your-own orchards. Major North Carolina varieties are primarily: Red Delicious-sweet, crisp, long apple with 5 points on blossom end, usually dark red color; use - especially good for eating or salads. Golden Delicious-golden yellow, firm, mild, delightfully flavored; use-excellent for both eating and cooking. Rome-red striped, firm, slightly tart, moderately juicy; use-excellent for baking and cooking, eating Stayman-dull red, firm, crisp, mildly tart; use-cook well, eating. Harvest begins about the middle of August for Red Delicious and Golden Delicious and lasts till the end of September. Rome and Stayman harvesting begins the latter part of September and runs until mid November. Of course, there are other varieties produced but in much smaller quantities. How much to buy is always a problem. The following guide will assist the shopper. Extra apples store well in a cool temperature and will be handy for many uses. 1 pound equals 2 large-size; 3 medium-size or 4 small-size 2 hi pounds equals enough for 9-inch or 3 cups applesauce Two-third pound equals 2 cups, sliced 1 pound equals about 1V4 - 2 cups applesauce 2 medium apples equals 1 cup grated 2%-3 pounds equals 1 quart for canning 1 bushel apples equals 16-20 quarts applesauce Whether apples are eaten raw, in salads, lightly pan-fried in a small amount of butter or bacon fat stewed, made into applesauce, or in elaborate dishes, they lend enjoyment to the diet. A few hints in cooking apples remind us to use as little water as possible to keep from scorching. Be careful about sugar in order not to spoil natural flavor. Dip apple slices in lemon juice to prevent turning brown. Old timey recipes follow as a matter of interest and contrast to the ease of modern day preparation. Both have been sampled and are delicious but not many people would take the trouble to prepare their own Apple Butter or Apple Leather. Mrs. Albert Hill lives in the heart of Henderson County, the largest apple-producing county in North Carolina. She is the only woman on the North Carolina Board of Agriculture and ably represents the apple industry. She has shared the Apple Butter recipe which her family uses when they gather in the fall to prepare this delicacy The Apple Leather recipe is not as tedious but precedes modern food conservation methods. OLD FASHIONED APPLE BUTTER (Made in 18 gallon copper kettle) 23 gallons cider (cook and boil down until all goes into kettle) 3 bushels sliced apples (add about a gallon at a time) Stir cider and apples constantly with wooden paddle in copper kettle over open fire-outdoors, of course. When cooked and about 30 minutes before removing from heat, add 5 pounds of sugar and cook the remaining time. Remove from heat and add to ounce oil of clover and 1 box of cinnamon (powdered). Stir in well. Fill hot scalded jars. Seal. Yields about 50 pint jars. NOTE: Not all of apple cider will go in pot at one time. Put in part of cider and cook until it becomes concentrated and all will go in. Be sure apple butter is stirred frequently for it will scorch easily. (Cooking time - start at 6:30 a. m. and take all day to finish. Apple butter is done when you can not see any cider or liquid showing.) APPLE LEATHER 3 cups apple sauce to cup sugar y« teaspoon cinnamon Spread to inch thick in shallow pan. Bake in a slow sven half day. Take out and roll in powdered sugar like jelly roll. Nuts may be added. Slice thin.
