Nine important steps in hilling hogs which make the work easier and produce better pork are sugested by D. T. Herrman, Extension Swine Specialist. 1. Select only those hogs which are in good health and are gaining in flesh. Hogs which are losing fiesh make poor meat. The weight and condition at which to kill depends on whether you prefer large or small cuts of pork and whether you want a fat or a lean carcass. Most farmers kill heavy fat hogs, but the packers put a premium on hogs in medium flesh weighing around 200 to 225 pounds. 2. Keep the hogs off feed for at least 24 hours before killing and keep them quiet but provide them with al the water they will drink This clears the system of food, facilitates bleeding, and lessens some dager in cleaning. Hogs that are excited before killing dress out a dark red carcass, and if they are whipped or bruised in any way, the bruised spots must be trimmed out. 3. In sticking avoid sticking the shoulder, for this causes the blood to clot and means a waste in trimming. Place the hog flat on his back, make a longitudinal incision in the ne"1V. insert the knife 3 or 4 inches, with the cutting edge towards the breast bone, raise the point of the knife up against the breast bone and withdraw. Then lay the hog on his side to bleed out. Do not drag the carcass over the ground, as this | bruises the meat. 4. Scald 1 1-2 to 2 minutes with water 145 to 160 degrees Fahren-j heit. Water hotter than this makes the hair set if the hog is left in water more than one minute. Water much cooler than this requires too mucin soaking to loosen the hairs. If you' | have no thermometer stick your; finger into the water three times in, rapid succession. If the third time is a ilttle too hot for comfort the water is about right. Remove the hair from the legs, ears and head first as these cool most rapidly. Aj teaspoonful of lye or a small Shovelful of wood ashes to 30 gallons of j water will help loosen the scurf. Re-j move as much hair as possible with the scraper, because all hair that is J s'haved of well stand one when the j pork is cured. 5. In removing the intestines use: [the left hand inserted between the j intestines and the meat to guide the knife and keep the intestines from being cut. 6. Wash the carcass thoroughly j both inside and out. 7. Either remove the leaf fat entirely or loosen it and allow it to hang by the upper end. This facilitates cooling. S. Split the carcass down the middle of the backbone?not on either side as is often done, for this a nemrnpsc; waste?and 011 down: through the head. In the South it is a common practice to cut the flank9 away from the hams, but in doing this care must be taken not to cut into the ham. These practices j 'hasten thorough coolin?. 9. Xever cut up the carcass until i it has had time to cool thoroughly. TROUBLE EXPECTED. Conditions Not Yet Settled in the Holy Land. Very serious trouble is brewing in Palestine, according to the "News of the World," which states that General and other officials on the spot regard the future with "grave apprehension." The Arabs on the border and in Palestine itself, the paper says, may at any time attack the Jewisli immigrants they regard with "deep root ed hostility." The government's authority is being openly clouted by what is known as the "Moslem Christian association." A manifesto has been issued calling upon the population to disobey the instructions issued for the taking of the census, and the association has decided to invoke the aid of Kemal| Pasha, the Turkish Nationalist leader. "Our position," continues the News of the World, "is amazing. In effect, without any advantage to ourselves. and under a mandate from the league of nations, we are holding Palestine at a cost of many millions a year for the benefit of Jewish immigrants. and thus incurring the hostility of the Arabs. "We may shortly find ourselves faced in Palestine with a situation similar to that in Turkey. We sJhall either have to fight or give way. The question is what would we be fighting for and what would we gain by fighting?" "The problem is not an easy one," the paper adds. "Owing to the action of Great Britain, America and France, thousands of Jews have gone to settle in Palestine. It would be interesting to know how much per head per annum eadh Jew immigrant is costing Great Britain. "The scheme for the settlement of the east has broken down, in a great measure, owing to the neglect of the United States to back up the treaties which she took so great a part in preparing. But whatever may be the cause now is the time for peaceful action and for definition of a policy." WOMEN TIGERS IN JAIL No Discrimination Should be Made BetAveen Sexes, Says Greene. The imposition of (heavy jail sent ences upon iwo women 111 nquui ca&cs during the recent term of criminal court in Anderson, which was adjourned Saturday afternoon and the attitude of Judge William P. Greene, of Abbeville, in which he made it obvious that in the administration of justice in his court no discrimination is made between the sexes, establishes something of a precedent m criminal history in Anderson cou ity. Rather than manifesting a desire to he lenient with feminine violators of the state laws, judge Green impressed upon the two women sentenced by him the fact that their bad example would only make lawbreakers of their children. Should any distinction be drawn between men and women violating the liquor laws of the state he intimated that the latter would generally be supposed to be more scrupulous in this regard and while it is detrimental enough to a people for its manhood to become involved in such ; violations, a sad state of affairs, in; deed, exists when its womanhood is | similiarly inclined. "You're not giving your children a chance, except to become lawbreak; ers," charged Judge Greene, when he passed a six months jail sentence upj on .Mrs. .Mamie Crumpton, jointly indicted for a violation of the prohibij tion law with her son Robert CrumpI ton, both of near Williamston. The son drew a similar term but the judge , declared in passing sentence upon the young man that had be been set a good example by his mother, or had her bad example not existed to actuate him in the commission of the crime, he would have received the limit of the law. In sentencing: Crumpton, Judge Greene said in part: "You've not had a good example set. but you may as well make up your mind that the man wiho violates the law is going to be punished." The sentence of young Crumpton was passed prior to that of hig mother and when the woman was told to stand the judge asserted that "You've been responsible for the trouble your son is in. People." he added, "will not stand for places where people drink liquor and become disorderly for this cause. It is a hard thing to do to sentence a woman to a term, but you're not giving your children a chance, except to become lawbreakers." In the trial of thi9 woman, testimony adduced indicated that Mrs. Crumpton had poured out a quantity of liquor when the officers had arrived at their home early during the morning. The other case in which a woman j was sentenced to a jail term of im-l prisonment was that of Gordon Leverette and his wife, both of near Pelzer. The case was a parallel in some: respects to that of Mrs. Crumpton, for it was alleged that Mrs. Leverette j was pouring out a quantity of liquor! when officers arrived at the home.] T /-.fi UOl'UUii ivt;v eiei ie uicw a. sememe ux six months while his wife was sentenced to four months in the county jail or a similar term in the state; penitentiary. The imposition of jail and gang sentences upon defendants in liquor cases and the refusal of the court to impose money fines in such cases featured the term of criminal court here last week. ALL OF THEM GAME. Condemned Greek Ministers Died Without Fear. The six cabinet ministers executed at Athens last Tuesday went courageously, even jauntily, to their death. Theotekis, Baltanzzis, and General Hadjanesti wore their monocles as they took their places in the little line before the firing squads. All removed their hats except Gounaris, who stood with his hands in his pockets. Stratos smilingly lit a cigarette as he took his place. Then he handed the silver case to the officers in charge of the execution as a sign of his appreciation of the latter's courtesy and | fact in the exercise of a painful duty, j Theotekis and Baltanzzis chatted gayly with Gounaris as the brief final arrangements were made. ProtopapahaVis -n-as silent and General Had janesti wore his usual air of Dervousness and restlessness. The death sentence was delivered by the courtmartial on Tuesday and was communicated to the condemned men, who had previously been remVved from Averoff prison where they had said farewell to their relatives. Promptly at 11 o'clock, after the administration of the last religious rites, the prisoners were removed in automobiles to the place of execution near Goudi, outside the limits of Athens. The condemned men were immaculately dressed and they showed no emotion as they alighted from the motors and walked to the troops. They took places at intervals, each man facing his own firing squad of 12 men and refused to be blindfolded. When the order to fire rang out all fell simultaneously and 'physicians said that death in each case had come instantly. The bodies were removed to a nearby cemetery where relatives attended x ~ at T ; iu nit; uui icti i lies, v^inv ct ?niaii crowd saw the execution. PHYSIC1 AX VICTDI OF AUTO WRECK Aiken, Dec. 4.?The death of Dr. W. D. Wright of Langley today at the Margaret Wright hospital in Augusta, following the collision of the car driven by Dr. Wright and the Southern passenger train from Columbia near Bath, come9 as a distinct shock and loss to this community. Dr. Wright was about 50 years of age and was a native of Walhalla, but had made his home at Langley for many years, where he had practiced medicine. He was prominent throughout this section and was known as one who loved his fellow man and who willingly ministered to the suffering without renumeration. His friends are many. Dr. Wright has for many years been employed by the Southern railroad as a physician. His wife, who before marriage was Miss Nannie Keister of Roanoke, Va., survives, as do his father and mother, the Rev. and Mrs. John X. Wright of Aiken. The Rev. Mr. Wright is a retired Methodist minister. Dr. Wright had planned to open an office in Aiken this week. Sisters and brothers who suxvive are: f.\Irs. Emma Copeland of Greenville, Mrs. Charles M. Peeler of Olar, Mrs. H. B. Bethea of Dillon, and Mrs. Leila M. Green of Aiken. K. 0. Wright of Greenville, oCke S. Wright of Birm injrha m. Ala.. and John Wright of Orlando, Fla. . The funeral service will perhaps be held Wednesday morning at the .Methodist church in Langley, with the Rev. J. E. i.Mahaffey of Honea Path, a lifelong friend of Dr. Wright, conducting it. T. E. Fletcher of Augusta, another occupant of tJhe car. was painfully bruised. One of the strikingly sad parts of the death of Dr. Wright yesterday was the fact that he and Capt. F. B. Fishburne of Columbia, conductor of the train which struck his car, were associates in the operation of the Physico-Clinical institute, whicih is located at the intersection of Sumter and Blanding streets. Dr. Wright came to Columbia twice weekly to attend to matters at the institute and had he lived would have spent today in the Capital City. Several months ago Captain Fish [ burne persuaded Dr. wrignt to tai:e a course in the treatment given at the institute. For six weeks he had been in charge of the institute in Columbia. Captain Fishburne said last night that it was impossible to describe the shock h<* received when he went to the wrecked automobile and found that Dr. Wright was one of the men injured. Dr. Wright regained con; sciousness for a short time, long enough to name the hospital to which ho wished to be taken in Augusta, and io recognize Captain Fishburne, and ask him how it happened. The engineer was Frank Holland, who did not see the machine until the engine was practically on it. The train was stopped in three car lengths, Captain Fishburne said last I Kings!
