Meats Class Makes
One-Day Field Trip
The Animal Husbandry 307
meats class took a one-day field
trip to the Houston Packing Com
pany February 17.
Nineteen students and Dr. G. T.
King, assistant professor, observed
the complete packing house opera
tion from the purchasing of live
stock in the stockyards to the fin
ished products I’eady for distribu
tion to consumer outlets.
The use of the most modern
equipment along with that which
has been used for fifty years in
the meat packing industry was ob
served.
Seen also was the actual buying
of the livestock; the methods of
slaughtering cattle and hogs; the
cutting of pork and the cutting and
boning of beef; and the curing,
smoking, slicing and packaging of
bacon and ham.
The processing of by-products
was also observed by the class.
These included the manufacturing
of bone beal and the curing and
shipment of hides.
The National Bureau of Stand
ards has said that a Wood siding
of white keeps a house cooler.
White paint, it reports, gives
more protection against the sun
than aluminun, colored paints and
other surfaces.
