BY PRODUCTS CAN
BE MADE VALUABLE
Farmers Who .Butcher Hogs at
Home Have Opportunity to
Utlilize Products That Form
erly Went to Waste.
Nowadays everything is saved in
the big meat packing establishments;
nothing is wasted. Throughout the
whole industry the slogan, Nothing.
Lost'but the Grunt, holds good, and
any day the report may come thru
that this last item of waste has beer,
converted into a profit.
All through the butchering season
this idea should be borne in mind and
no scrap or portion of the carcass
should be thrown away; the end of
the season should find the materials j
for—first, many pounds of soap on
hand, and second, a good supply of
tankage for the chickens.
It is at this time that the steam
pressure kettle comes in especially
handy, as all soap-making material
should be thoroughly cooked until
the bor.es are dissolved. With an
open kettle this will be found a long
process, and if no pressure kettle is
available it may be advisable to lim
it efforts to the smaller and more
fatty portions.
After the product is thoroughly
cooked, skim the melted fat off the
top, and clarify by adding one pint
of cold water to every two or three
pounds of fat. The fat will then sol
idify or: top of the water and the
other material will sink to the bot
tom of the vessel.—(Save the set
tlings for tankage.)
Hard Soap—Cold Process
Weigh the clean, clarified, fat. For
every six pounds of fat allow one
can of pure concentrated lye, of a
known quality, and one quart of cold
water. Dissolve the lye in the water
stirring it until cool. Then take the
clean fat, melt it in a kettlefl (never
use aluminum ware for soap mak
ing) or can and cool until lukewarm.
Then pour the cold lye solution
slowly into the lukewarm fat (not the
fat into the lye), stirring constantly
and vigorously until the mixture re
sembles honey in thickness. This re
quires from a quarter to a half hour.
Pour the mixture into wopd&n or
paste-board boxes. If a wooden box
is used it should be lined with paper.
Cover the soad and set in a warm
place for a da yor two, when it can
be cut into any desired shape.
How to That Home Made Soap
Cut a piece of the soap and place
the tongue on the fresh, surface side.
If it tastes sharp, not enough grease
has been used. If it feels greasy not
enough lye has been used. If it both
tastes sharp and feels greasy it has
not been mixed properly. If too much
salt has been used (in making hard
boiled soap), the soap will look curd-
ly and will be brittle.
A soap that is a little sharp is pre
ferred for scrubbing purposse, and it
will make a good lather, but for laun
dry and toilet purposes the soap
should not taste sharp. If a soap
does not bite the tongue it cannot
hurt the hands or fabrics.
Tankage
In line with economy, the material
left in the kettle should be thorough
ly dried in a heater (the bones if
not thoroughly dissolved should be
run through a bone grinder.) This
product can be used for hog feed be
fore dry, although in this state it
will not keep for any length of time.
After it i s dry it will keep for
some time and can be used for stock
feed in the same way as tankage.
As feed for chickens, mixed in with
mash or even' dry grains, it is a val
uable egg producer. If this tank
age moulds, it should not be used
as fbed, however.
If the procedure outlined above is
adhered to by farmers of Decatur
county who butcher their own hogs,
a substantial increase will be made in
the value of the hogs by thus utiliz
ing the by-products.
CHARLOTTE N.C. HAS
HEAVY LOSS BY FIRE
Six-Story Building, Containing
Theater and Many Offices is
Totally Destroyed, and Ad-
joinging Buildings Damaged.
CHARLOTTE, N. C., Dec, 17.—The
six story Trust building on south Try-
on street here, containing the Keith
Vaudeville Theatre, and a large num
ber of offices, was destroyed and two
other structures seriously damaged
by fire early today, with a total loss
estimated at more than $440,000.
The roof was burned off the ad
joining 3-story building occupied by
Brockman's Retail and Mali Order
Book and Stationery Store, and a
number of offices, and practically all
the contents of the structure was a
total loss, due to fire and water.
The Piedmont building on the south
side of the Trust building was water-
soaked from roof to cellar. It was
headquarters for the Piedmont Fire
Insurance Company and the Morris
Plan Bank, and contained numbers
of other offices.
The fire was believed to have orig
inated in the furnace room of Trust
building, and had gained great head
way before it was discovered. Save
for one or two minor injuries to fire
men, there were no casualties in the
fire, which attracted hundreds of per
sons to the scene. One of the heav
iest downpours of rain Charlotte has
had this year began to fall about
the time the fire was brought under
control.
Had it not been for the heavy rains
of the last week, which left nearby
buildings soaked, and the aid given
by the torrents of rain water that
fell this morning, Fire Chief Wal
lace said the blaze might have prov
en as disastrous as the recent one at
New Bern, N. C.
Tons of water were thrown' into
the smoking ruins throughout,thb en
tire day, and South Tryon street was
blocked to traffic until the late after
noon as parts of the front wall of
the Trust building fell into the street.
The scen'e of the fire was between
Third and Fourth streets on the west
side of South Tryon, within a block
of where the famous Mecklenburg
Declaration of Independence is said
to have been signed.
