SLAUGHTERING q CURING MEAT
ON FARM KEEPS MONEY AT HOME


Strengthening and curing more meat
ON the farm will help cut the high cost
of living, suggests one member of the
animal husbandry department at Iowa
State College.
One of the large packing plants re-
Gently published the fact that it had
earned 49.4 per cent on the common
stock the previous year. This is net,
after preferred dividends and all ex-
penses had been paid. Somebody is
paying this profit and that somebody
is the producer and consumer.
By observing a few simple rules in
regard to Strengthening and curing of
meat, the farmer can not only supply
himself, but also his town neighbors
with meat. Freight expenses, commits
sion, packing profits, salary of sales
man, express and the wholesale and
retail profits could thus be divided in
the community instead of away from
home.
That the farmer can soon establish
a select trade which will take all the
meat he can produce has been demon
strated in Brook county, Georgia,
where the farmers and business men Is
clubs, thru q joint committee, have
adopted standard rules for cutting,
trimmings, smoking and labelling hams,
bacon and shoulders. They are unable
to supply the demand.
So instead of shipping all the hogs
to market this fall, why not slaughter
at home and establish q home trade7
If the town does not take all the meat
On hand, try curing hams, shoulders and
cut up the trimmings into sausage for
the demand next spring.
