FRESH LARD FROM LIVE PIGS
OBTAINED BY SURGERY

Surgery has hurdled over the
ancient formula, first kill your
pig" and solved an important food
problem: that of obtaining fresh
lard from live porkers.
A German farmer at Schleiche-
grieben is the first to carve Jumps
of fat off swine without sacrificing
the animals. This is how it is done:
After the four-footed patient has
been fattened up. a veterinary sur
geon applies a local anaesthetic-
an injection of novocain-to the
parts about to be sliced up.
This injection is said to make h
flesh of the pig i~nsensible to the
knife. An incision is made on the
back and on the abdomen, a layer
Of fat is cut out and the skin then
sewn up.
Before the operation the pig is
strapped to a table and after the
slicing is done. he is bandaged up
to rush healing of the parts operated
on.
Each pig, the farmer estimates,
can be operated on three times a
year.

WASTE

For every s~eventy-six pounds of coal actually convert
ed into mechanical energy, ffty-one pounds get in the ash
nit. 446 pounds go up the chimney as smoke and gases,
says the Geological Survey.
The greatest field for inventions and wealth is in the
elimination of waste. We get very little of the real strength
and power out of what we use, waste claiming the lions
share.
So far, it hasn't bothered us much, our natural re-
sources are so tremendous. When we near the vanishing
point, attention will be turned to waste, ways found to pre-
vent it. Pity il cannot come sooner, to preserve resources
for future generations.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE call
for the great disarmament confer
ence seemed to grow out OF the
Borah naval disarmament
Borah called for a conference for
the purpose of agreeing on a stop
page of naval construction.
This looked like an easier thing
than an agreement for any general
disarmament. Poland and the new
European states may not want TO
reduce their armies, while Russia is
in her present state of enmity to All
the rest of civilization, while Bull
garia is awaiting an opportunity for
revenge on her neighbors, while
Hungary is flirting with the Haps-
burgs; and France is insane with
fear of a recovered Germany. In
his fear Poland joins.
Borah said nothing about the set
Element of the Pacific problems as
a condition precedent to dfsarma-
ment. Harding and his advisers,
wisely or unwisely chose to take up
the whole matter of reducing armies
as we'll as navies =,
They chose to say to the world In
effect. 1--WE are building u navy
because there are questions IN the
Pacific which may lead to war. we
shall not disarm until those ques-
tons are settled"
The Harder Way
This was a tremendous DECISION
to take the harder way.
That it is harder to effect general
disarmament than naval disarma-
ment only is plain.
IL Great Britain, Japan and the
United States can agree on putting
down the burden of great navles
the thing will be Accomplished, ioi
these are the only nations winch
count for much in sea power.
AS for us, the stoppage OF MAYA,
