HOO KILLING ON THE FASM.
“How to Build Rural Telephone Lines”
In order to do neat and rapid work ut hog-killing time le is necessary to
have u good scraper, sticklug knife, a hog book and a place that is convenient
for working.
For scalding a barrel is commonly used, and ft is all that is needed unless
the hogs are very large. If very large bogs are killed, a scalding tub will
answer the purpose for scalding much better than a barrel. 1 have one which
is made of two-inch planks for the sides and ends and sheet iron for the
bottom. It is six feet long slid three and one-half feet wide, with a depth
of two and one-half feet. Two hooks are fastened near the top on one side,
with a pair of trace chains to run under the hog to facilitate the turning
and withdrawing from the tub. It is placed over a furnace, which Is made
by digging a trench In the ground, and when in use 1 place pieces of wood
across the bottom, in order to keep the hog from coming in contact with the
iron bottom and getting too hot.
I find that the projier tenqterature for good scalding is from 180 to 190
degrees, and If a barrel Is to be used the water should be boiling when
dipped out of the kettle, as the barrel will cool it some. If a scalding tub
Is used the water should lie cooled by adding a bucket of cold water before

The grocer's boy was lumbering up the

“Yes'm,” he answered, still climbing the

hog is put in. To insure a correct heat of the water use a thermometer.
Small quantities of lye, ashes or lime will have no effect in removing the
hair, but will cause the scurf to come loose more readily. Keep the hog in
constant motion while being scalded, and draw it out to air occasionally.
When the hair and scurf slip easily from the body the scalding is com
pleted. In scraping and cleaning the hog, I clean the feet and head first,
then the legs, and last, but not least, the body.
I hang the hog with a rope and pulley, as It is more easily hung in this
way than any other. But it may be bung with the ordinary gambrel, a
stick which is sharpened nt each end and inserted under the tendon strings
of the hind legs. A short singletree will be found to answer for a gambrel
stick. If there Is sufficient help a< hand tbe hog may be hung on a pole
put up for the purpose. After the hog is bung up, rinse it down with scald
ing water, remove the entrails by running a sharp knife lightly down, mark
ing the belly straight, cutting to the bone between the thighs and in front of
the ribs, which bones I split with an ax, being careful not to cut beyond
them.
I usually salt down on a bench or in a box as soon as It has cooled
enough to trim. The amount of salt I use is ten pounds to evety 100 pounds
of meat. In addition to the salt I also use two pounds of granulated sugar
and two outlet's of saltpeter mixed. Rub tbe meat once every three days with
onj-thlrd of the mixture. While it is curing pack it in a box in a cool room,
where it will neither become warm nor freeze.
Two barrels may be used, changing the meat from one to the other each
time it is rubbed. After the last rubbing let tbe meat lie in a box for a
week or ten days, then take it out to smoke. When taken out of the box
dip each piece in a kettle of boiling water and let it remain half a minute,
after which sprinkle with a little powdered borax on the meat side and hang.
Smoke it four or five days with hickory chips of corn cobs, then dip and
sprinkle it with borax again and put it down in clean hay. Meat treated in
this manner may be left banging all summer and will remain in the best con
dition.—W. Hanson.

revolutionizing the present method of
farming here, is about to be tried by
the Maplecrest Stock and Poultry Farm
Association, Springfield, Mass.
The association is planning to bring
1,000 sheep from the western part of
the country and put them on farms in
and around Middlefield and Becket
Tbe sheep are merinos and will be
mated with dorset ranis of local ex
traction.
Some of the reasons which prompted
the association to bring tbe sheep are
the decreasing ratio of tbe meat sup
ply and the constantly Increasing popu
lation of the country.
Scotch herders will be brought here
with the sheep and will be used In
stead of dogs or fences to keep them
from straying, as It is claimed that
more care can be given by professional
herders.

Horse feeding Is not given the atten
tion it should be by some farmers.
That of the cow and sheep Is carefully
examined and discussed, but oftentimes
the horse's feed Is Just all the hay he
can eat and various quantities of corn
and oats, according to the work being
done. Although oats and bay are ideal
food, they should not be fed exclusive
ly. Horses like a variety as well as
does any other animal. Good timothy,
early cut and well cured. Is the best
hay for horses, but many farmers feed
too much hay. If the horse is expect
ed to do extra hard work he should be
liberally and frequently fed. It Is best
to water horses as they come In from
work or before feeding. If watered
soon after feeding, the stomach, being
small, is liable to be partially emptied
by the water of the undigested food,
which causes bowel trouble or loss of
food.
