PAGE NUMBER THR1
pick out a day when the tempera
ture is low enough to chill the car
cass thoroughly, as meat contains
living bacteria which will spoil it
quickly in the same way that milic
sours, if not properly chilled. In
the upper part of the state the
weather does not often constitute
a serious problem, but in the low
er part of the state, it is often
necessary to use artificial refrig
eration, in order to be insured
against loss. Fortunately many
ice plants in this section are equip
ping cold storage rooms to handle
meat for farmers, making it pos
sible to kill hogs at any time, be
fore they become too heavy or the
limited supply of corn Is exhaust
ed.
Extension Bulletin 77 from Clem-
son College and Farmers’ Bulletin
1486 from the U. S. Department of
Agriculture at Washington give in
formation on butchering, cutting
the carcass, and curing the meat,
as well as recipes for making sau
sage, scrapple, head^cheese, and
many other delicious products.
These bulletins can be secured
through the county farm or home
agents, who will also advise re
garding the use of artificial refrig
eration for keeping the meat.
Several short cuts making
important r'arm cask easier
saving both time and labor
outlined oy Mr. Hav/kins.
The first of these is to confine
the hogs the day before you ex«
pect to slaughter them and allow
no feed—only fresh water to drink.
This partly frees the blood stream
and intestinal tract of food mater
ial, resulting in an easier job of
dressing the hogs, and in better
keeping meat. A thorough job of
bleeding is necessary, and can best
be accomplished by sticking the
animal without first stunning or
shooting.
The second important point is to
see that the temperature of the
water is 145 to 150 degrees, to per
mit a long, soaking scald. The
hair and scurf will then come off
easily. Avoid using too hot water,
which causes the hair to set and
greatly increases the labor and
trouble of removing it. A bell
shaped or candlestick scraper costs
little and is a great time saver.
Sharp knives are an absolute nec
essity.
Cooling is facilitated by remov
ing the leaf fat and center-split-
ting the carcass down the middle
of the back bone, after which each
side can be hung seperately to al
low free circulation of air.
After the carcass is cooled it may
be cut and che hams, shoulders, and
bacon trimmed into smooth, reg
ular shapes, avoiding any rougn
ends or loose hanging pieces widen
may get too salty, or afford har
boring places for mold or insects.
A curing mixture which has giv
en satisfaction is eight pounds of
salt, three pounds of sugar, and
two ounces of saltpetre, sufficient
to cure 100 pounds of meat. The
saltpetre should be powdered and
the ingredients mixed together, and
the mixture rubbed well into the
sides, face, and ends of the hams
and shoulders, and a somewhat
smaller quantity rubbed on the
The great quantities of
salt sometimes used will make a
salty, unpalatable product and will
not save the meat under unfavor
able weather conditions. Two-
thirds of the curing mixture should
be applied at first, and the meat,
if chilled throi^h, packed awav in
a cold place. Five to seven davs
later it should be overhauled, and
more of the curing mixture rubbed
on.. Hams and other heavy pieces
should be overhauled the second
time a week later. Bacon with ribs
removed is generally sufficiently
cured at the end of two wteks»
while hams and shoulders should
remain in cure about three davs
for each pound in a piece of meat.
This will give a 14-pound ham six-
weeks in cure.
When sufficient time has elapsed
for the meat to cure properly, iz
should be taken out, washed, and

improve our diet by canning and
curing a sufficient supply of meat
to provide adequately for the fam
ily throughout the year, Mr. Haw
kins asserts that no one has ever
seen a surplus of good country
cured hams on any market, and
that at the present time two cured
hams will almost equal the value
of the live hog on foot.
As to safety in curing Mr. Haw
kins says: “Of course you will
smoked if desired, blit this is op
tional with individual taste. Pepper
may also be applied at this time.
To prevent the meat from drying
out and to protect it from insects,
each piece should be wrapped in
heavy brown paper, sewed in cloth
sacks, and the sacks treated with a
yellow wash to make them im
pervious to insects.
The sausage, spareribs, loins or
backbone, head-cheese and liver-
pudding furnish too much fresh
meat to be used to advantage wlii] >
fresh, and should be canned for usj
when the appetite demands a
change from salt meat. Canning
not only prevents the waste of fresh
meat at butchering time, but allows
a better distribution of the meat
supply throughout the year.
