bringing the top of the tank level
with the scraping board. The water
should be heated to 14O to $50 de-
grees Fahrenheit. Caustic soda,
wood ashes, or lime help remove the
scurf. The hogs should not be kill
ed until the water is ready.
The carcass should be placed in
the scalding tank as soon as the hog
is dead, being sure to keep~the head
and feet under water. The hog should
be rolled frequently in the tank. or
turned in case a barrel is used. This
insures a uniform scald. When the
hair slips from head and feet the
carcass can be removed from the wa
ter. The scraping must be done rap
idly and the head and feet should be
cleaned first. %Scraping discs, blunt
knives, corn knives or hoe nay be
used.
Inquiries in regard to killing. dress
ing and curing pork and beef should
be directed to the animal husbandry
specialists at State College.

TRANSACTION A MYSTERY
Federal Agents Investigating
Relations between Parties
Involved

New York, Dec. 9.--With the re-
newal yesterday OF the Federal Grand
Jury's inquiry into the alleged laxity
OF prohibition enforcement In New
York, II became known that not only
are two national hanks involved but
that the bootleggers who are said to
have obtained loans from these banks
got them on their notes after they
had shown withdrawal permits for
liquor worth $7,500,000. When the
banks made advances on these notes
in the sum OF more than s1,0Oo,0O0.
the permits were supposed to be
genuine. The Government now
charges they were fraudulent.
These withdrawal permits are be-
lieved to have been some OF those
which disappeared from prohibition
headquarters last May while Harold
l.. Hart was State prohibition direc-
tor. There were about 300 OF these,
and through the work Of agents on
the staff of Hugh McQuillan, CHIEF
Of the special intelligence. unit OF the
internal Revenue Bureau. most OF
them were recovered before the
liouor for which they called was re
leased
The continuation Of the inquiry IS
thought to be the result OF addition
al information concerning the imam
cial transactions of the bootleggers'
including the part played by the
hanks which came to light too late
for the old Grand Jury to take up. II
ia possible that other indictments
