EATING TOO MUCH IS THE
GREATEST CRIME
Gangsters, stick-up men and kid
napers are not public enemies num
ber one, but a rather indescribable
something that goes by the name of
O. Ver Eating.
Dr. Victor G. Heiser, noted globe
girdling health officer, who has
spent more than half a century bat
tling diseases which could wipe out
cities and armies with one infectious
sweep, says that the habit of over
eating has created the greatest na
tional crime wave America has ever
known.
Dr. Heiser has chased typhus and
malaria and plague all over the
world. Now he’s home to warn
America that it has problems far
greater to consider than epidemics.
And he’s telling the middle and old
age groups that while micro-organ
isms have been licked, nothing has
been done to protect them from O.
Ver Eating’s swift attacks.
“At last the gates have been op
ened and we are slowly discovering
that a great percentage of our old
sters are digging their graves with
their teeth,” he said. “I don’t think
there’s any question but that over
eating is the greatest national crime
today. We continue to think in
terms of pies and biscuits mother
used to make and forget that most
of the middle and old age ailments
are born of stomachs that are too
full.”

6,750 ON PAY ROLLS OF STATE,
WISDOM REPORTS TO HOUSE
The state of Georgia has approxi
mately 6,750 persons on its pay rolls,
Tom Wisdom, state auditor, report
ed to the house of representatives
in complying with a resolution adopt
ed requesting this information.
Wisdom’s 252-page report con
tained the names of employes as of
November 15, totaling 6,750, but it
also listed several hundred more who
were employed between January 1
and November 15 and left the em
ploy of the state between those
dates.
The State Highway Department
was the largest employer of persons
listed in the Wisdom report. The
department’s pay roll totaled more
than 2,500.
It was said that the total employ
ment figure for the state as of No
vember 15 was approximately 500
larger than on January 1.
A number of new departments
agencies have been created since the
first of the year. Wisdom’s report
did not include school teachers, but
lists 105 employes for the Depart
ment of Education.
Among the departments reporting
specifically on the number within de
partments were: Agriculture, 130;
athletic commission, 24; banking,
16; auditing, 20; comptroller gener
al, 72; entomology, 23; executive de
partment and buildings and grounds,
26; Governor’s office, 11; contrac
tor’s licensing board, 6; and unem
ployment compensation division of
the labor department, 92.
Wisdom’s report listed employes
by name but did not give a com
plete summary as to the numbers in
each department.
THIRTY-SIX YEARS IN POCKET
While in town a few days ago Mr.
Arthur Graham, of the Clouds Creek
community, showed us a handker
chief that he had been carrying con
stantly in his pocket for thirty-six
years. It was a souvenir sent him
by a lady relative who was on a trip
to the Philipine Islands. It is of
exceedingly flimsy pure silk with
elaborately hand embroidered bord
ers, and as yet shews no wear. When
Mr. Graham received it he placed it
in the outside breast pocket of his
coat as an ornament and has chang
ed it to all the coats he has worn
since. He prises it very highly.—

PAGE SEVEN
COUNTY AGENT’S
COLUMN
With the hog killing season well
under way, farmers are advised to
pay special attention to killing the
hog and curing the meat.
Regarding the proper care of hog*
to be slaughtered, they should have
nothing but water for 24 hours be
fore killing. If no feed is given dar
ing this period, they will bleed more
freely and dress easier.
Care should be taken not to ex
cite the hog at killing time, as this
may cause them not to bleed thor
oughly, and the meat is likely to be
bloody. Shocks will also stop the
flow of blood, and for this reason
sticking the hog is better than shoot
ing or hitting in the head.
Water for scalding hogs should be
145 to 155 degrees fahrenheit for
best results. A fifty gallon barrel fet
generally used for scalding hogs o
the farm, and about 30 gallons oT
water is usually needed. No lime,,
rosin, wood ashes or soap is neededl
if the water is at the right tempera
ture. After the hair is scraped oft
and the carcass is hung up, it shotilJ
be rinsed with clear water and
scraped with a sharp knife until
clean.
In removing the internal organs,
the intestines and stomach should be
taken out first. Then get the heart,
liver and lungs. When this is done,
remove all blood and small partticles
of meat sticking to the carcass by
rinsing with clear water.
It is very essential to get the meat
chilled immediately after dressing.
Cutting and salting warm meat de
tracts from its appearance, and too,
such meat does not keep well. The
ideal temperature for curing meat is
34 to 36 degrees fahrenheit. The
meat should be held at this tempera
ture for 18 to 24 hours, then it i*
ready to be cut up and saltedl
Pork should be cut in a way that
will provide cuts of meat the family
can use to the best advantage. One
method is to split the carcass dow
the center of the backbone. Lar
one half the carcass on a solid table,,
cut off the shoulder between the
third and fourth ribs, making a.
square shoulder. Next, remove the
bone just behind the pelvic arcb,
and at right angles with the hind
leg. The loin is removed from tht
i bacon by sawing through the ribs at:
point of greatest curvature, then
cutting at the edge of the large mus
cle at the ham end. Remove the fat
back from the loin, leaving enough
fat on the loin to fry pork chops.
All meat to be cured should be
trimmed smoothly and neatly. Meat
in the cure should be held at 38 de-
grees fahrenheit. The temperafatre
should never rise higher than 50 de l -*
grees.
Quality meat requires proper salt
ing and curing. Sugar curing is pre
ferred over the plain salt cure, and'
the dry method is considered safer
and quicker. The standard recipe
for sugar curing meat is 8 pounds of
saft, 2 pounds of sugar, and 2'
ounces of saltpeter per 100 pound*;
of meat. Rub one third of tins mi*—
ture into the meat every two days.
Then pack the meat in a box. Keep
salt, 2 pounds of sugar, and 1
days for each pound. A 15 poondL
ham should be taken out the thirtietk
day. Bacon requires only one and
one half days per pound for caring.
For smoking, meat should be tak
en out of the box, washed with warp
water, and dried thoroughly. Never
smoke wet meat. After the meat is
smoked, it should be wrapped m
heavy paper, then covered with mus
lin or cheese cloth. Dip the wrapped
pieces in a lime and water solution
of white-wash and hang up to dry
in a well ventilated room. After
drying, such meat is practically irv
sect proof.
