"Pass your finger rapidly through the water three times. If it burns he third time the water is the right temperature." That venerable old formula for telling when water is the right tem perature for scalding hogs is still a good one. at least for anyone blessed with a reasonably keen sense of feel ing. says A. W. Oliver of the Oregon State college animal husbandry de- part ment, Anyone wanting a more accurate measure may use a ther- monieter and get the water between 150 and 155 degrees F. for best re suits, he says. As water boils at 212 degrees, it is easily apparent that the term "scalding” as applied to butchering hogs Is a relative term only. Oliver cautions against tak ing out the hog too quickly, as ma ny an otherwise good scald is spoiled by not allowing long enough time tor the hair to loosen fully.
