HORSES .... Still Popular
Driving last Sunday between New
York anti my Massachusetts farm I
tool* an unfamiliar route, over one of
New York state’s magnificent new
“four-track” concrete motor high
ways. And 1 w-as struck by a new
kind of warning sign along the road
side,
j Besides the familiar “School
Ahead" I saw at frequent intervals
“Caution: Horse Crossing Ahead,"
and every little while there was a
gap in the fence, through which one
oi two or sometimes a dozen men
and women on horseback would pass,
to cross the highway to the bridle
path on the other side.
The horse as a medium of outdoor
sport is coming back strong. Passing
Anew machine which processes eggs and makes it possible to keep them
fresh indefinitely without storing was displayed at the National I'ouitry.

to retain the carbon usoxidc which is the life preservative ot eggs.
through Millbrook, in the heart of
I the fox-hunting country, I saw hun-
I dreds of cars parked in a field where
jumping trials of hunting horses
were taking place.
More and more people are learn
ing the truth of the old maxim: “The
best medicine for the inside of a man
is the outside of a horse.”
SEASERPENT . . ju.t a big Eel
In my boyhood in a New England
seaport town I often heard old sail
ers tell stores of the seaserpent.
The monster was anywhere from a
hundred feet long upward, as big
around as a barrel and with a head
like a horse. He had been sighted in
various latitudes, always moving
along the surface in a series of loops.
Later, as I grew up, I was taught
that the seaserpent was a myth; that
what the tarry old salts had seen
was nothing but a school of por
poises in the distance, in single file.
Fut now comes a credible report of
a real seaserpent in Vancouver
Sound, which turns out to be a gi
gantic conger eel.
Old “Hiaschucgoluk,” as the Si
wash Indians named the mythical
monster which they have long claim
ed inhabited the Sound, has been
seen in the past few weeks by many
white men, lifting his head out of
the water to scrape his sides against
a rock, evidently to get rid of bar
nacles. They guessed his length at
anywhere from fifty feet up. At any
rate, it seems to be well proven that
there are strange things in the sea
which science has not yet capturd
and catalogued.
SALARIES . . Some Too High
Out of all the fuss that is being
made over the President’s declara
tion that many corporation salaries
are too high, it seems to me that one
thought stands out.
Big business is not run by its own
ers, the stockholders, but by hired
men, the managers and directors.
Handling other people’s money, it is
r.atuial for many of them to yield
to the temptation to raise their own
pay. When a company is making mil
lions a yeai, what is the difference
whether its president gets a hundred
thousand or a million? That is human
reasoning.
I have come to the conclusion that
it is as unjust for a corporation head
to feather his own nest as it is for a
banker to get rich. Both are trustees
ol other people’s money. What that
money earns does not belong to them
but to the stockholders or depositors.
Management is entitled to fair pay,
proportioned to ability, but it is not
entitled to enrich itself, at the ex
pense yf others,
CHESTNUTS . Rare and Coitly
Along the roadsides of New Eng
land this Fall one sees boys and girls
displaying signs: “Native Chestnuts.’’
Many motorists stop to buy these de
licious nuts, which have been almost
ungettable for years.
About thirty years ago the chest
nut blight, brought from Japan, at
tacked the trees in the East until
there was hardly a living chestnut
tree left cast of the Hudson River. I
cut down the last two chestnut trees
on my farm several years ago.
Sh lots rising from the old stumps,
however, have now begun to develop
into trees which seem to be able to

resist the blight which killed thier
parents, and some of these new chest
nut trees are bearing their fruit this
year for the first time.
The roadside peddlers charge 75
cents a pint for their wares, includ
ing worms! That is a high price, but
many seem to be willing to pay.

NO LIQUOR ADVS BE
RUN IN DRY STATES
POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT AN
NOUNCES RULING. REED
AMENDMENT COVERS SITUA
TION, IT IS POINTED OUT
Washington, D. C. —Repeal or no
repeal, the Reed amendment will not
allow the post office department to
accept liquor avertisements address
ed to persons in dry states.
The post office department made
that clear Sunday in a statement
based on a ruling of the department
of justice.
Recent publication of liquor ad
vertisements in expectation of repeal
raised the question which resulted
in the ruling.
The department of justice was
quoted as stating that the Reed
amendment, prohibiting the use of
mails for advertisement of intoxicat
ing liquors or the solicitation of or
ders for such liquors in prohibition
states, was not affected by “the so
called beer act of March 22, 1933,”
end would not be affected in the
event of repeal.

PROPER CURING WILL
PREVENT MEAT SPOIL
BEST METHODS OF BUTCHER
ING AND CURING HOG MEAT
BROUGHT OUT AT RECENT
MEETING IN MACON
At a meeting of the ice manufac
turers in Macon recently, when rep
resentatives from Tennessee, North
and South Carolina, Florida, Ala
bama and Georgia were present, the
test known methods of butchering
and curing meats w r as discussed.
The U. S. department of animal
husbandry has made extensive stu
dies of the hog which has resulted in
a better type of animal for slaughter.
In the research department variou?
methods of killing and curing have
been observed and the results tabu
lated that the general public may
profit by their work.
One important thing with refer
ence to a proper cure of meat was
discussed by the various managers
of curing plants throughout the ter
ritory. This, a vital part of the cur
ing, the proper chilling of the meat
alter it is killed. All present agreed
that more meat spoils because of im
proper chilling than from any other
cause.
When the animal is to. be slaugh
tered it should be penned and all
feed should be kept away for from
24 to 36 hours. The animal should
be kept as quiet as possible before
killing. The best and most humane
method of killing is to stick and bleed
to death without stunning.
After the animal is properly bled
the hair should be removed and the
cntrals, lungs, heart and liver remov
ed as quickly as possible. No time
should be lost in placing the hog in
a cool temperature where the meat
will be properly chilled. Certain bac
teria that cause spoilage immediately
start development if the meat is al
lowed to remain in a warm tempera
ture.
On various tests it has been dem

GENUINE BAYER ASPIRIN POES NOT HARM THE HEART
onstrated that the temperature at
which meat is kept the first few'
hours after killing will largely de
termine whether or not it will prop
erly cure. Meat in which bacterial
development has started cannot be
safely cured. Too much attention
cannot be given meat during the cur
ing.
Southern winters are too uncer
tain to risk curing a large quantity
of meat without some artifical meth
ed of refrigeration. A few dollars
spent in ice or in curing will often
mean the difference between saved
and spoiled meat.
The Jackson Ice Corporation,
which operates a cold storage plant,
is now getting ready for the meat
curing season. This plant has served
the public of this territory for sev
eral years and the business has con
stantly grown in favor, as there has
been a better understanding of arti
ficial refrigeration.
