HORSE MEAT FOR FOOD.
An Oregon Firm Opens Up Now Kind Of
Packing House.

Portland, Oregon, Aug. 6.-The prob
lem of what to do with the thousands
OF horses on the western ranges rem
dered valueless by the electric car and
the bicycle has been solved by the erec-
tion Of an establishment for the packing
of horse meat at Linnton. on the VIII
lamette frer. a few miles below this
city. For year past horses have been
a drug on the market. StOckmen who
have made a business of raising them
on the ranges and have bands contain
ing several thousand. find that their en-
tire stock Is valueless. The animals
are threatened with sad fate next
winter should It be a severe one, as
stockmen will not waste feed on a use
less animal
A number of business men carefully
Investigated the subject and then or
ganized the Western Packing and Fer
tilizing company and built abattoirs
and packing house at Linnton. They
purchased 1900 horses from n single
range owner in eastern Washington.
and the first train load of these has ar
rived and the work Of converting them
into meat has commenced. The plant
consists Of a large tank for steaming
the fat out of. the meat. a number OF
smaller tanks. two vertical digesters or
retorts, an oil press. kiln heated by
steam for drying the bones, bone
crusher, a grinder and boiler and en-
CINE. At present no effort Is made TO
can this meat. The only portion pre-
pared for food is the hams, which are
picked for export.
None of the carcass Is sold fresh, and
no horse meat can he had for use here.
The hams are intended for the Euro
pean market. where the custom of eat
ing equine flesh has already been estao-
lished. The bulk of the carcass Is con-
yerted into oil and fertilizer. What
this beginning may lead to in the way
of putting canned horse meat upon the
market Is uncertain. The prejudice
against It, founded chiefly upon senti-
ment, in this country would seem 10
offer but little hope Of such an article
meeting with ready sale.
