Killing Hogs.
Tho following is contributed for
the G-ermantown Telegraph :
Killing hogs is a business in which
the whole commnnity is interested,
and perhaps n small proportion ac
quainted with. It is term'd "butch
ering," and often carried on in butch
ering style, while it ia a business wor
thy of being conducted in a decent
and scientific way. I do not pro
pose going into a long programme of
now to catch a hog, and how to hold
him, kc. &c., but to throw out a few
hints.
Do not suffer the hog to be run
and worried by men, boys, and dogs,
getting his blood and flesh heated,
just before, he is killed. I beleive
this is one cause of meat spoiling.
Sometimes we drive a hog or two to
a neighbor's, so as to "kill together,
as it is termed, making upcyjit' the
same force, same fire and other fix
ings ; and wc have known the hams
and shoulders of hogs thus driven to
come out a little short before the next
'summer was ov r.
Let the hogs be killed with as lit
tle Ti >i e. and worriment, and excite
ment as possible. A Jerseyman has
one man togo into the pen, selects
bis fust victim, and shoots him, or
with a broad-faced hammer (like -a
phot moker's hammer,) knocks down
the hog, w hen other men come imme
di: t'.:ly and stick, others drag out,
ami goto scalding, and so on, with a
huge number of hogs.
" Seal ting machines have become
verv common, and arc a good institu
tion ; but everybody has not got one
r rid still use tubs. 1 like the tub,
1 want nothing better for ordinary
li 1 ; but I want a rope ar.d tackle, j
•••id one or two hands to help work
l!; hog. I wou.d riot allow a hog I
i • iii o hot water is a
• ii of life in him ; but uhen dead, ■
;.iako an opening to the gambrail !
Strings and hook in, hoist the hog,
and dip liiin head and shoulders into [
the scald ;do not li t him remain more I
than a second or two. lest his hair
" setshoist him and air him, and
if needful, dip bin again and again
till done ; then hook into the lower
jaw, and scald the hinder parts. I
like slow scalds the best, as less like
ly to '"set the hair." while the hind
puts are getting scalded the face
may be cleaned. Too little attention
is generally given to cleaning the
head, as also the feet, leaving them
for the women to worry over, by the
hour in some cold out-kitchen. As
soon as the hog is hung up and wash
ed off, let the head be taken off, and
set upon a barrel or block, and regu
larly shaved and cleaned.
And now while speaking of the
head, I want to say how 1 cut up a
bend. I lay it on its side ami take
off the jowl (or lower jaw) 1 then
Saw down across the face, just above
the eyes, but careful to run into the
eye sockets, and on through, leaving
the eyeballs with* the snout end, so
that there Is no farther trouble with
gouging the eyes out of the face-piece;
then without farther separation of
the parts, starting between the ears ;
saw up and down wise, not caring to
extend farther down towards the
snout than to the saw-mark across
the face, but clean through at the
other end. Now having clone with,
the ears for handles 1 cut them off,
then take out the brains for pickling j
—skin the snout, a*d take off' the j
flesh for scrapple, and throw the na-!
sal organs away The faces are to be j
corned. I use a saw but .never an j
axe in cutting up a hog, consequent- J
Iv the meat is clear of splinters and ;
chips of bones. In " chinning a hog" i
to cool I saw down the ribs instead
of hacking them with a hatchet.—A
small si/,oil hook flattened answers
very well for taking off" the hoofs and
toe nails of u porker; or you may use
a pair of pinchers. BUTCHER.

FATTEN 1M; CATTLE A.NU SHEEP.—
Mr Saunders read a paper bearing
upon this subject, before the Dorces
ter (Eng.) Farmers' Club, in which he
expressed the opinio •, from his own
practice and experiments, that tak
ing " beasts" (or bullocks, as we call
ti: m.) four or five years old, and
sii 'i ji of two years old and feeding
ILK ID under equal conditions of food,
v.i'.vmth at\d shelter, six sheep are
about, an equivalant for one bullock,
both in the consumption of food and
the profit yielded. As to feeding, he
saiil:
•• Beasts thrive better when fed on
mixed kinds of food. Instead of
giving them the full value of cake,
give them say, one-half in cake, the
other half in meal, with due consid
eration to the relative market value
ol' the two. Then again with roots,
—Swed?s, in the tjurly part of the
winter, are as good, and perhaps
better for weight) than Man
golds, Uit in the spring 1 prefer Man
golds instead of Swedes for bullocks.
Sheep also better with a mix
ture of Cake and com together than
with cake alone."
liut the general preference of the
speaker, as well as those who follow
ed him in the discussion, was evident
ly in favor of feediug sheep rather
than bulloekß—having reference
specially to the light land farms of
the district.
you desire to have your
swine \ • gli heavy, tie a string around
a fore-leg and lead them to the scale.
They will then be pijj led !
PRESERVATION OF EGGS. —A wri
ter in the Boston Cultivator says:—
" The best method I know of to pre
serve eggs, is to fill the pores of the
shell with fresh, clean lard, so as to
exclude all the air. It is my opin
ion that this simple and easy method
is preferable to any other now in use.
—Some put them in lime-water; some
lay them down in salt, anil some put
them in sawdust. But the lime cooks
them, so that they have a dried ap
pearance ; salt has a similer effect ;
while eggs saturated with lard, as
far as my experience goes, open
fresh and nice. In Paris however,
where they understand these things
thoroughly, eggs, are preserved by
immersion in hot water as follows:
A kettle of boiling water is prepared
a dozen eggs are put into the kettle,
left there for about a minute, and
then withdrawn. 4Sy this means a
thin layer of the egg becomes coagu
lated, and forms on the interior sur
face of the shell a sort of coating,
which opposes itself to the evapora
tion of the substance of the egg, and
consequently to the contact of the
air, which rushes to fill the vacuum
left by the evaporation."
PLANTING. —The general impres
sion in regard to deciduaus trees, or
those which shed their leaves in Au
tumn, is in favor of fall planting, tho'
in all cases the ground should be
well drained. However circumstan
ces should control the actions of
the planter. On rolling lands, with
gravelly soils, Fall planting is ev
idently to be preferred, as the rains
and snows of Winter settle tho earth
firmly about the roots, enabling the
young fibres to strike rapidly into the
moist soil jn Spring, and thus more
fully withstand the droughts of Sum
mer. If soils are flat, undrained, or
retentive, Spring planting should be
preferred, though it should not be
attempted until the soil had become
dry and mellow. As there is no cer
tainty when it will be in this condi
tion, there is, as a general thing,
more risk in Spring than in fall plan
ting.
For this lattitude, Spring plant
ing is to be preferred for evergreens,
beg nning about the middle of April.
—C'ulturist.
Do CATTLE HEQUIIIE SALT ?—lt
has been questioned by many agri
cultural writers whether stocks act
ually require salt, either alone or in
connection with their food ; wheth
er it is roally one of the necessaries
of life or simply a luxury, to be used
or let alone as convenience may re
quire. Prof. Johnston, a Scotch
writer, referring to the subject says :
" We know why the animal craves
salt,, and why it ultimately falls into
disease if salt is for a time witheld
Upwards of half the saline matter of
the blood (57 per cent) consists of
common salt; and as this is partly
discharged every day through the
skin and the kidneys, the necessity
of continued supplies of it to tho
body becomes obvious.
The bile also contains soda as a spe
cial indispensiblo constituent, and so
do all the cartilages of the body.
Therefore, if the supply of salt be
stinted, neither will the bile be able
properly to assist tho digestion, nor
the cartilages be built up again as they
naturally waste. And when we consid
er it to be a fact that without sale man
would miserably perish ; as among horri
ble punishments, entailing cortaiu death,
that of feeding culprits, on saltlcss food
is said to have prevailed in barbarous
times, wc may become partially convinc
ed at least of the necessity of feeding
salt to our stock —that it is one of the
necessaries as well as one of the luxuries
of life for man and beast; and it should
be profusely provided at short intervals,
in proper places, if it cannot be kept by
them continually, so that each and every
animal may satisfy the demands ot his
nature. Then it shall not be said of us
that while our pudding is always well
seasoned and salted, our stock are allowed
to suffer for want of the same ingredient,
which is as truly necessary for their food
as for ours.— l. If. Sauborn in Genesee
Farmer.
fcjp A statement has been issued by tho
Agricultural Department, showing the
amount of crops for the last three years,
including the present j'car, showing the
proportionate ratio of increase and de
crease of each crop over or under each
year. The wheat crop for 1864 turns out
nineteen millions of bushels less than it
was in lSGii. and twenty-one millions less
thau in 1802. In oats there is an in
crease of three millions of bushels over
1803, and five millions of bushels over
the year 1802. In corn tnere is an in
crease of seventy-nine millions of bush
els over last year, and a decrease of fifty
six millions of bushels from the year of
1842. Potatoes are four millions of bush
els less this year than last year, and thir
teen millions less than in 1802. Buck
wheat remains about the same for three
years. The decrease iu the tobacco crop
is seveuty millions of pounds from last
year, but there is an increase of some
sixty millions of pounds over the year
1802. A detailed statement of the above
facts in about to be issued by the Agricul
ural Bureau.
How TO LEAD ANIMALS.—The horse,
cow, calves, and sheep, may be led by
a sliping noose and fastening it to the
lower jaw, passing the rope (which must
be small) around the neck and through
the nose on the jaw. It is a very easy
method of leading a sheep, not
obliged togo behind and " push." Atter
once pulling, the sheep will follow right
along with no trouble. It costs Dothing
extra. Tryjt. *

During tiie dkistence of the Whig party, this paper
supported fhat party, though always sympathizing with
the more liberal, progresnive. Anti-Slavery "wing" there
of. When new issues iiii&olvi lor transformed old organi
zations through flu; spontaneous uprising of the people
of the Free States against.the repudiation of the Mosoiui
Rest/iction, The Tribune heartiiy participated in that
niovement, and was known as Republican. VShen tlm
long ntuolderiiig conspiracy to divide and destroy our
oountry or reduce It entire to complete abasement to the
Slave Power culminated in overt trens- n ami rebellion,
it naturally, necessarily regarded resistance t«. this con
spiracy as paramount to all other considerations, mid de
voted all its energies and efforts to the maintenance of our
Union. In every great controversy which has divided
our country. It has been found on that side which net u
rdJy commands the sympathy and support of the large
majority of school-houses and the decided minority of
grog-shops, and so doubtless will be to to the Jest.
•Ardently desiring and ttrivlnir for ihe early and eml Ti
ring adjusffnent of our National distractions, The Tribune
leave* the time, the nature and (he conditions of that ad
justment implicitly to those lawfully in suthority, con
tiding in their wisdom and patriotism, anxious to aid
them to the utmost in their arduous responsibilities and
not to embarrass them even by poMibility. Firmly be
lieving in the Apostolic rule—"First pure then peacea
ble"—holding that the total and Anal extirpation of Sla
very is the t. u» and only absolute cure for our National
ills—-that any expedient that stops short of this can
have but a transient and illusory success—we yet pro

that has bei n propound ad by another—neither Sum

devices for achieving "Peace" by surrounding the Re
public into the power of it* traitorous foes—but, exhor
ting, the American People to have faith in their Govern

Providence will in duo time bring this fearful struggle to
such a close as w d best subserve the true- greatness of
