KILLING AND HANDLING HOGS. Dram SIa,— We are frequently asked by farmere and stock men for inetruations regarding the killing and handling of dressed hogs, and knowing that your valuable paper reaches a large elan who are interested, we take the liberty of using it as a medium for this purpose, Daring titin season of the year it is well to select, if possible, a cool day for slaughtering. The hogs should be starved at least twelve hours before kil- ling. A great many farmere are experi- enced butchers, and the number of shoulder stuck hogs is very much less now then some years ago ; however, we strongly advise that none but experienced hands should be allowed to stick hogs. Inetruatious as to the scalding and re- moving of the hair, we think, ere un- neoeseary. Whoa we wish to oall epeoial attention to is the treatment of the carcase after it has been hung up. The bone between the hind legs, atso the breast bons should be out through, so as to allow the removing of all the entrails, along with the gullet. This being done, the carcass shonld be well showered with oold water, and allowed to hang up twelve to tweniyfour hours, according to the state of the weather ; if very warm, then more cold water should be used, and a longer time allowed to hang. If the hogs are very fat (which, by the way, is not desirable, especially in the light weights,) they should be split open through the backbone to al. low the animal heat to escape ; which, if not attended to, the cbanoos are you will hove tainted meat. These °peninge do not, in any way, interfere with the price in selling, as all hogs have to be divided in the middle when being prepared for curing. We wish to impress this paint in regard to fat hogs very strongly. Under no copditioas should a hog be cut down from tbe plane where it is hung up to soot until all the animal heat has left the body, even should it take 30 or 48 hours to do this. Of coarse it will be understood that during the winter weather, the care in regard to chilling of the earease is cot so nea0eeary, but as there are large gnantites being killed during the present season, when the weather is not so favorable, this is the time that the above precautions ebould be taken, and if the above instructions are carried out, the result will, in every case, be satisfactory, and the highest, market pride will be obtained for 'hogs so prepared.
