MUTTON. THE CHEAPEST AND
HEALraIE3T MEAT.
Eds. Ru,al World.

Eds Rmal WorH.
| often wonder why it is that farm
crs use mostly the meats for home
consumption that are highest priced,
and the most costly in their product,
ion. Pork is the principal and fire.
quently the sole dependence for the
tamilys yearly meat provision. At the
same time, pork almost invariably
com hands the highest price per pound
of any other domestic meat that en-
tiers into human consumption; and, to
make the hog command this high price,
which he brings, he must live at the
fountain head" and get the best that
the farm produces. He must have the
ru.. OF clover and grain fields while he
is attaining his growth, and then be
stopped "atn with about Is bushels Of
corn; SO, when nice and exact calcu
lation is made, Of the amount that his
porkshlp has consumed, it will be per
ceived that pork is the most costly
meat made on farm Next after
pork, beet enters most largely into the
yearly supply OF farmers fare. This is
less costly, but still relatively very
dear meat at present prices. Mutton
is many odds cheaper, but is seldom
if ever seen on farmers table; and
aside from its cheapness, its whole
someness ought to recommend 1t. Let
a stock buyer come around, and the
chances are that he will find more
sheep and cattle than he can purchase.
For several years past, tat mutton
sheep that would net from ~ to 20
pounds of meat, have only brought
from - to 50 from shearing time till
winter; in addition to the meat, they
would yield from to 10 pounds OF
tallow, which is worth 10 cents q
pound. The average value of the pelt
and ,allow has been about 81, bring
ing the meat down to 2 IL to 3 l-3
cents per pound.-This is the meat
that most farmers sell first, and are
most anxious to get lid of. During
the period referred to, be fhas ranged
from 6 to cents and pork from TO
II cents per pound, thus showing
ditie ence greatly in favor OF mutton.
Now, would it not be better econo-
my, to consume IS much as possible
of the lowest priced and healthiest
meat produced on the farm, and dis
pose of the high-priced and unhealthy
meat?
But few persons refuse to partake of
mutton, while most do OF pork Why
can't two or more neighbors, during
the hot weather of summer, SO ar
arnge as to have mutton at suitable
intervals, by halving or dividing it
among themselves, and thus al have
healthy aud cheap meat? Or, il there
be such rs object to having meats
any other time than cold
weather, why cant they pickle, or
corn or dry it, as other meats are
done? Now it occurs to me that al
most every farmer might rave . con-
item in this way III money,
aud lose no enjoyment in the way OF
his eating either; but, on the other
hand, gain in both instances. II. B.
