Meat Supply Is Said
To Be Plentiful In
County This Season
More Fanners Killing Meat
Supply Earlier Than
Last Year
It is generally reported that there
is a plentiful supply of meat for
home use. but that the surplus will
not be as large as m years gone by.
Many farm hmnca of this I
are now a beehive of activity.
tEe chill winds of winter hi
brought with them the mi map t
"hog-killing" tune has arrived. Al
ready dozens of farmers in this i
Hon have had the first bog slaugh
ter at the year, and are now enjoy
ing a nice "mas at freshets."
During the winter months, hog
killing in this section reaches large
proportion. Farmers have anywhere
from two to thirty hop to slaughter
every year, and enough meat IS fur
nished for the family during the
whole year.
"Hog-killing" time?how this ex
stirs the activity of the farm
lamily as well a the appetites at
some of the less fortunate town res
idents. It means plenty at real hard
mork but it also means fresh pork,
sausage, spare ribs, liver pudding,
cracklin' corn bread?filling the

out more readily.
Don't overheat or excite the ani
mals before killing. Getting the bog

and causes the meat to sour while
For scalding the carcass. Professor
Nance said that water at a tempera
lure at ISO degrees is best. In cold
weather, add a bucket of cold water
to half a barrel of hot ling water, and
this will give about the right tem
perature.
Or dip the finger into the water
quickly. If it burns severely the first
tune, it is too hot. But if the finger
can be dipped in three times in
quick succession, with the water
[ burning severely the third tune,
the temperature is about right.
A vat sunk into the ground beside
a platform close to the ground level
provides a coovement place to scald
the carcass and scrape off the hair.
Tools that will aid in dressing the
carcass are: a common six or eight
inch butcher knife, a six-inch stun
ning knife, a smooth steel for sharp
ening knives, several hog gambrel
sticks. two bell shaped hog scrap
ers and a 28-inch meat saw
