Roose- U Prof. Stresses velt again showed his aptitude for discerning the Need For Planning Ho g Killing Easy With Equipment Home-Mad- e hog killing Simple home-mad- e the equipment removes much of hard work from dressing hogs at home and makes it possible to thoroughly, clean the carcasses according to H. H. Smith, professor of animal husbandry at the Utah State Agricultural College. A hoist for sticking, a metal or d scalding tub which can be heated by a fire beneath, and a timber dressing rail greatly simplify the work. Hogs bleed more thoroughly when stuck without being shot and the hoist makes it possible to rope a leg and hoist the animal with a block and tackle, thus making it easier for both hog and operator. A 12 foot hoist made fom two 16 foot poles sunk four feet in the ground will need but be slight bracing and also may used for dressing cattle. In preparation for sticking, a two-inc- h cut through the skin and tissue along the middle of the throat and just immediately in front of the breast bone should be made. Then at once the knife should be inserted, blade down, and thrust forward and under the point of the breastbone and then down, cutting arteries and jugular vein. The knife should go straight down to avoid sticking a shoulder, With a scalding tub, more fire or the addition of cold water makes it possible to keep the temperature of the water between 140 and 145 degrees Fahrscald enheit. This makes scraping easier and makes it possible to clean the head, feet and skin thoroughly so that all portions of the carcass will be available for food. This unit will handle six to ten hogs an hour, says Mr. Smith and makes hog killing a fairly easy task. metal-bottome- fire-heat- slow-soaki- feeling and wishes of the people, and his ability to Lake City, Jan.9 The need fall in step with these wishes in just the right man- forSalteconomic planning was never ner. greater than it is today, accordHis proposed plan for furnishing work for the un- ing to Dr. Dilworth Walker, asprofessor of economics at employed undoubtedly fits into the ideas which have sociate the Utah, and a University been forming in the minds of those interested in member of theof state planning the matter for the past several months.
