HOG KILLING TIME RETURNS TO SCHLEY Stiff Freeze Of Thursday Morning Is Ideal For Heavy Butchering Hog-killing time came back to Schley County yesterday. The coldest morning of the autumn, which found the thermometer dipping to 28 degrees and saw everywhere blanketed with a heavy frost, provided ideal weather for butchering and reports indicated many farmers took full advantage. Fattened on peanuts and milk and "hardened" on corn, the hogs were ready. And plenty of helpers were ready, too, for scarcity of willing negro labor is never felt at hog killings. Those who previously have been "jest too busy" or "down in me back" are eager to volunteer their services. They like hogshead cheese, and some of the liver, and the feet. Any of the scraps. Enviable skill is required to cut up the hog so that the meat is not wasted, and the hams, shoulders and sides will cure the best. The backbone is cut square so that every vertebra has a little pork chop attached to it. "Tenderloin" is another choice cut. They take odd pieces, some of the fat, the proper seasoning, and make sausage. Soon spareribs, crackin' bread and collards cooked with how jowl will be a popular and mighty tasty menu. Bacon side are prepared for smoking. Farmers sometimes vary their smokehouse methods but a popular formula is to use a cypress fire, with a touch of sassafras foot for flavor. This fire smolders for about ten days and nights. And the meat is turned each day or so to assure even swoming. Later, hams are sacked for protection and within three or four months they reach their peak flavor. end # 21
