■ Practically in addition to all the bacon produced, most of the heads and feet of pigs are sent to the United Kingdom, the bulk of the offal being sent to Germany. Hams, salted pork in barrels, and fresh (not salted) pork are sent to various other countries. Almost all the intestines (value in 1913 about £ 200.000) are sent to Germany for the German sausage industry.
