SOUTH CAROLINA Thursday, January 17, 1935 Need Continued Hog Production Control In 1935 Necessity for continuing control over hog production to enable pro ducers to hold the gains they have made through their production ad justment program, is shown by the existing and probable future de mand conditions. Chill Hog Carcasses * Promptly For Safety The prompt chilling of the fresh ly slaughtered hog carcasses is one of the most important factors in securing sound pork, says K. F. Warner, an extension animal hus bandman of the U. S. Department, of Agriculture who is well known to South Carolina hog growers Farmers will guard against serious Oyster Supper At Community House Next Thurs. Night „ . loss from spoilage by noting and Hog;production control in 1935 4s observing Mr. Warner’s suggestion held necessary to prevent undue increases on farms where feed for expansion will be available, and to Insure against excessive farrowing in all areas in the fall of 1935. A change in the percentage of hog adjustment in 1935 was neces sary to help offset additional re ductions in hog numbers made this ' year on account of drought, but a material re-expansion in hog pro duction is not yet warranted by ex isting demand conditions. Foreign demand continues at a low level. Exports of pork from the United States showed a slight increase in 1934 but lard exports declined. Annual shipments abroad remain at about three fourths of a billion pounds as compared with nearly two billion pounds in the early post-war period. In the domestic market, there is no immediate prospect of an in crease In effective demand suffi cient to warrant large increases in hog numbers or com acreage. Re employment and increases in in- cpmes of consumers will improve capacity of consumers to pay more XOr pork products, but material in creases in the actual requirements of these products is not expected. The domestic per capita consump tion of pork and lard has continued at a high level since before the de pression. V- _ „ : V f Bacteria present in the tissues of the hog at the time of slaughter will develop and spoil the meat if allowed to grow, he explains Chilling the carcasses to a temper ature around 37 degrees Fahren heit within at least 48 hours after slaughter and holding the curing meat at the same temperature throughout the curing period are the most practical means known today for keeping pork sweet until the curing salt has had time to penetrate. Freshly slaughtered hogs will chill more rapidly if they are split, the blanket of leaf lard pulled from the inside*, and the head re moved. Carcasses should be hung so that the sides do not touch and so that the air can circulate around the body cavity. Hot un split hog carcasses hung so that the body cavity is closed have soured the first night even when hung in cold storage. Where weather conditions make artificial refrigeration necessary, this may be done by means of regu lar cold storage or by packing the warm meat in cracked ice. Cold storage or ice-cooled meat boxes can be used to keep the tenipera- ture of the chilled meat around 37 degrees Fahrenheit throughout the curing period if air temperatures are not sufficiently low. Group No. 1 of the Baptist Ladies’ Aid Society will serve an oyster supper at the community house on Thursday night, January 24th, beginning at 6:30 o’clock. The public is cordially invited. v Fields Comedy At Its Funniest “It’s A Gift” Babes In Toyland” Rare Film Treat ABBEVILLE OPERA HOUSE, WED NESDAY AND THURSDAY, JANUARY 23RD-24TH Peter's Lesson in Humble Service. Lesson for January 29th. John IS: 1-17. Golden Text; 1 Peter 5:5. This beautiful story of the wash ing of the disciples* feet^s one of the high points in tote gospel nar rative. it illustrates first of all the lowliness of service., Jesus here performed the work of a slave. He placed Himself in what many con sider an ignoble, ignominious posi tion. And He' did so at a time when the disciples were by no leant in a responsive mood. In tact they were jealously quarreling wver the question of precedence. Bow vain and childish they were! Barely they needed this lesson in humility from Him who thereby hbeyed His own immortal charge. "Whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister.” Then, too, this incident makes Clear the brotherhood of service. There were occasions when the liaster allowed His disciples to serve Him. He permitted them to manage the boat while ! He fell asleep in its stem; He allowed them to distribute food to the hungry multitude; and He planned His triumphal entry and the Last Supper. Now He might have assumed the attitude of a lord to his vassal, or a rich man to his valet. But He did nothing of the kind a Not only was He willing that the disciples should serve Him, but He was ever eager to serve them. Again, this touching event sets in a clear light the dignity of service. Peter was shocked. ‘T will never let you wash my feet!” he declared, indignant over what he considered a descent from that lofty place of honor the Master rightfully occu pied. Had He not approved Peter’s confession that He was the Mes siah? Why then perform so menial a task? But Jesus rebuked Peter. “You will have no share with me,” He said, “unless I wash you.” In a sense what He did was drudgery. But the Master was a servant who “makes drudgery divine,” *as the poet Herbert puts it.

Fields picture, “It’s a Gift,” which shows at the Hollywood Theatre, Monday and Tuesday, January 21st and 22nd presents Paramount’s droll genius of comedy in a story that fits his peculiar talents better than any thing we have seen to date. Supported by Baby LeRoy, who has learned to talk and utters his first dialogue lines in this picture; Kathleen Howard, Jean Rouverol. Julian Madisoh and Tammany Young, Field?' has incorporated the best of his hysterical gags, and some of the funniest' •tany routines he has ever perpetrated, in this film. The story is a simple one. It concerns a shiftless, henpecked grocer who can neither shave, eat or sleep in peace in his own home. He finally inherits a sum of money, invests it in a California orange ranch and packs the family into a dilapidated car for a trans-con tinental trip to their new home. Their adventures on the trip are replete with excruciatingly funny incidents, but when they finally arrive in the golden state they find that the orange ranch is a “lemon.” It is then that Fields really puts his genius into high. ' He enters into a series of trans actions with a pair 1 of shady in dividuals who are trying to “best” him and emerges with that orange ranch and money to boot. Which brings the film to a happy con clusion. Jean Rouverol, who plays the leading romantic role with Julian Madison, promises to be an ex ceptional actress, if her perform ance in the ingenue role is any criterion of her ability. Tammany Young and Charles Sellon in the -subordinate roles prove invaluable aids to Fields’ comedy. Tl*e picture was directed by Norman hf<!Lecfr from an orig inal by Charles Bogle and J. P. Mc- Evoy. Victor Herbert’s musical score was followed as closely as possible in producing the Hal Roach-M-G- M feature, “Babes in Toyland,” which is declared to be the late musician’s most delightful fantasy. The only liberty taken, according ':o John W. Swallow, musical di rector of the film, was the change of certain passages which featured the wood wind section. This was done to allow incorporation of a more modem instrument—the sax ophone. “I feel that if Victor Herbert were alive today he would have done what I did in slightly chang ing the wood wind score to allow for the saxophone, which was practically unknown in his time,” was Swallow’s justification of his change. . In the screen fantasy are heard €|uch stirring Victor Herbert com positions as “Bo-Peep,” “Castles in Spain,” “Go to Sleep, Slumber Deep,” and “March of the Tojfe,” and others. A chorus of thirty picked voices augment the singing cf Felix Knight, dramatic tenor and Atwater Kent National Finalist for 1932, who plays Tom-Tom, and Vir ginia Karns, who portrays Mother Goose. Harry Jackson’s internationally famous radio orchestra, which furnishes the background music and accompaniment, features the Victor Herbert musical numbers, Toyland,” “Hang March,” “Coun try Dance,” and others. “Babes in Toyland,” starring aurel and Hardy is currently Maying at the Abbeville Opera louse, Wednesday and Thursday, January 23rd and 24th.
