SCIENTIFIC SLAuaHrERINo.-As this 10
the season for killing hogs, the following
plan for dispatehing them by Chester
County, Penn. farmer may be Of interes:
to some readers who desire to do their
butchering quietly. expediously and with
due regard to humanity. lie says, kill
your hogs by shooting them. He has
tried it for many years, and declares that
he shall never abandon it to turn to tho
old sticking and squcaling routine. All
that is necessary To be done is to place d
small slug. made of hickory or some hard
wood, in your gun, and with a. small
charge of powder drive it into the brain Of
the animal at point between or n littls
above the eyes. This will cause instant
death In nine cases out Of ten the heg
will turn on its back and be. stuck and
bleed freely. The advantages Of this
method may be enumerated rs follows -
1t requires less help. is more expeditions,
the hog dies without struggle. is moi. .ex-
cited, and bleeds as freely, il not more 50,
than when stuck alone. The pork not 50
warm after killing. is much better, will
keep as well: and lastly, IL is more hua
name than 70 use the knife exclusively. 5
