CHITTERLINC SEASON
IN FULL BLAST HERE

The chitterling season opened here
today, when dozens of wagons from
the country brought in large quanti-
les of these delicious delicacies,
together with a liberal consignment
Of spare-rbs and backbone, those
choice cuts which have made this
section famous.
The crisp weather now being eX-
perienced is ideal for hogkilling and
fine swine were slaughtered by the
hundred throughout the county yester-
day and today. Sumter farmers last
year produced more meat than suffi-
Gent for their needs, the surplus be-
ing readily purchased by neighbors
and city residents, and this year the
meat crop promises to be tremendous.
Valuable experience in the saving
and curing of meat has been gained
by farmers of the county during re-
GEM years, and on many of the big
plantations here modern cold-storage
compartments have been erected es-
psciolly for this purpose. These
cold storage plants enable farmers
to kill their hogs whenever convenient
and are an absolute insurance against
loss during the curing process.
There is always a brisk demand for
hcme-cured meats in Americas, and
tanners with a surplus to dispose of
this year will sell at good prices to
merchants here.
