We heated the water in the lard kettle. This was a
cast iron pot, larger than a kettle drum. The water
was put into the barrel with buckets.
We had a lift on the 3 point tractor hitch. We took a
singletree from an old harness, hooked the ends into
the hogs hind legs by the tendons. Then were able to
lower and raise the hog into the scalding water.
