pEMMICAN AS FOOD.
ne vslne ss an Up-to-Date Army
Ration Cssaot ne over
Estimated.

The value Of pcmmican as food ra-
zion Is not by any means confined to .x-
ursions where means OF transporta-
tion are limited. Its value has been
demonstrated many times on the from
tier, where fresh meat was abundant
and easily obtained.
My attention was first called to II In
1868. while encamped with some Red
river people north of Mouse river, in the
British northwest. These people were
In the habit OF going out TO the buffalo
range every spring from the Fort Garry
settlements and putting up tons OF
pemmican for the winter trade and TO
supply the northern trading posts. The
mode Of making II was as follows: Buf.
falo meat was sliced with knife in
huge slabs Of about one inch or less In
thickness and suspended over frames
for drying In the sun.
small fire was built underneath 10
keep of flies until thin glaze was
formed on the outside Of the dried
flesh. which cfrcctualiy protected IL
from attacks OF flies. When thoroughly
dried the meat would have shrunk to
less than one-third OF its former thick
ness. Then IL was roasted slightly to
make IL brittle, when IL was pounded
with fails and reduced 10 fine particles.
The whole was poured into raw-hide
sacks and incorporated with melted
marrow fat.
When cooled the sacks were stored
away In dry place and would keep for
years. This was the crude process used
for the trade, there being several grades
OF this pemmican.
The value OF wcll-madc pcmmican lies
In the fact that II contains the maxi.
n!um OF nutrition with the minimum Of
weight and space. added to its keeping
qualities. 1t Is always pala,ablc.
whether eaten In the raw state or
cooked.
While In the interior of Alaska with
Capt. Glcnn's exploring expedition. IN
July, 1898. had occasion to dry guam
tity OF moun'ain-shecp meat to keep
II from spelling. When IL was perfectly
dry | roasted il slightly on some Goals
at the campfire. and afterward pounded
II in canvas sack. In this state il was
delicious. IL served many "a time for re-
frcshment on the trail, even when fresh
meat was obtainable. Once q handful
of IL mixed with boiled rice served as a
treat for I2 hungry men.
Its excellence rs q food ration for sol
