SAUSAGE CUTTER MIR. \. Scboll, of the
L" Empire Market, has secured new sausage
machine that works on the principle of a
quartz crusher. Instead of hammers, it is
provided h FIVE knives which by ratchet
arrangement are elevated one at a time and
descending with great force cut the meat
very rapidly. Mr.. Scholl informs us that
with this machine be can cut fifty pounds of
meat in twenty minutes. BY the old proc, IS
it would require four hours to accomplish
the same amount of work Anything that
saves labor tends to The reduction of prices,
and hence we infer that in the future Gus.
toners will be supplied with " bolognas - at
low prices
