Augusta lGa.) Chronicle: An old time hog killing is hard to find now. Meat is bought too cheaply from the west. The prairie farms, where corn is burned as fuel, raise hogs too easily to allow south ern farmers the luxury of killing and cur ing their own meat You go to the pack ing houses of the west and drop porker into the slot. In fifteen minutes he comes out clear ribbed and sugar cured lots, with can of pure lard thrown in, and all the hoof, hide and tallow present and account ed for. The poetry and plenty of the old plantations have given way to the steam packing mills, with their millions of pounds month. Farmers used to make their hams from necessity. Now they put them up as luxury. It has gotten SO that none but we'll to do farmers can afford to raise their own meat. In those days of the steaming gypsy pot, the hickory ashes, the fat pen, and the crispy sward dyed in pur- pie, we heard nothing of trichin@ or pork corners. The only meat futures were when the shote was marked in July for killing in December. Sometimes a mild winter robbed the farmer of his meat Occasionally his pigsty and smoke house were raided between the suns, but there were grease and plenty in the hog killing l on the plantations.
