Consul Tingle Points Out = Market for
Horse Meat.
WASHINGTON, May 25,-Mr r, W. s.
Tingle, United States consul at Bruns-
wick, Germany, contributes interest
ing facts to the state department about
the consumption Of horse meat as food
In that country In the large cities Its
consumption Is almost as great as that
Of beef and mutton. In the smaller
cities prejudice against horse meat as
food continues, but the consumption Is
growing. In the large cities there are
numerous shops devoted exclusively to
the sale Of horse meat. The customers
are the poor classes, but as these COM
prise nine-tenths Of the consumers Of
the country, an Idea may DO had as to
the proportions Of the trade. With
beef selling from Is to s5 cents "a pound
1t Is only upon rare occasions that the
worklngman earning from rs cents to
81 day can have beef, Horse meat
can be had for Z cents . pound, and as
those who consume II become used to
1t, the demand increases until 1t IL now

Consul Tingle says 1.-THE horse supply

the west much cheaper than cattle,
They can be slaughtered easier or can
be shipped alive across the SEQ much
more easily than cattle and can be sold
