1t is best to keep the animal off feed
for IL TO "a hours previous TO butcher
ing, but allow il 10 drink all the water
II will, rs this tends to cool the body.
BY throwing the hog ON its back and
then straddling il behind the shoulders,
one hand may be used to hold the head
down and the other to operate the stick
ing knife, which should be about six
inches long and sharp on both edges.
Before sticking the animal fee. for
the breast bone and then cut an inch or
two beyond il for distance of four
inches to afford a good opening. Keep
the sticking knife in the center and
pointed backward at an angle of As de-
gress toward the backbone and thus
sever the blood vessels where they
spread from the chest cavity.
A hog that has been stunned will not
bleed as wei rs one that has not been
stunned previous to sticking. If it is
desirable to shoot the hog, the best
place is behind the ear.
After the animal has been bled, scald
il rs soon as possible. Under ordinary
farm conditions barrel placed so that
it slants up to a table or bench will
serve as scaiding vat. The water
should be at temperature of los to LIS
degrees F., and any of the following
substances will aid materially in remov-
ing dirt and scurf: a small shovel full of
hard wood ashes, hand full of soft
soap, I to ! cup of coal tar.
To scald the hog, place hog hook in
the lower Jaw and scald the hind parts
first, because if the water is too hot and
sets the hair this part of the body is
much easier to shave. Keep the hog
moving up and down in the water until
the hair comes out easily, and then re-
move the hair from the hind legs by
twisting with the hands. The scraper
may be used to remove the hair from
the remainder of the body.
The hog is then turned around and
two tendons loosened in the hind legs
% that the gsmbol may be inserted nd
then proceed with the scslding as with
the hind quarters, being careful to clean
the ears, snout and legs as soon as pos
sble.
After the rough hair and scurf have
been removed throw boiling hot water
over the carcass and shave with the
knife held flat against the body, and if
two are working shave toward the cen
ter.
Wash the carcass with rot water and
then clean cold water and hang up to
remove the internal organs. When the
entrails have been removed wash the
carcass thoroughly and allow it to drain
and cool until the next day in order that
all the animal heat may be out of the
carcass before it is cut up.

was even gaeater curiosity TO see what
would happen than there had been be
fore the aviator's withdrawal. The
event they looked forward to happened.
Everyone knew that it would, sooner
