"Red Pebble farm produced and saved approximately 35,000 pounds of meat, like that shown in the windows, during the year 1914. This meat was killed and placed in a large brick and cement refrigerator and allowed to remain there for about six weeks. It was then taken from the refrigerator and hung up in a smokehouse and thoroughly cured by smoking with sawdust and pine tops. Not a single pound of the entire 35,000 was lost on account of unfavorable weather conditions."
