WESTERN BEEF VS.. HOME ppoDr@

"GAAN DEE vs. HOME PRODUCT
western beef is arriving bo,o

to the statement that the NATIVE 19aos

to be so kept for at least a for+ni<
The fact is that butchers b,+ ou''
often depreciate the native booe Y"O

it for sale. There ought to bo
storage plants, under mnnioS
supervision in all places of r"
and thus enable butchers to

cattle raisers and to the cons7n,a
as well, and would put the no+-

ter to Charlotte Observer.
The above item should set noor,.
to thinking. There is some iniustios
to the local butchers in the state
ment. If people called for homo

they could get it, because the butch.

pay the additional expense. Again
the homegrown beeves are so rDntr
and thin that they do not dress ont
so much by five to fifteen e cent
as do the Western cattle. There ara
small cuts and larger percentages Of
bone.
A thoughtful people would be TAX.
ing steps to meet such a condition
with better home-bred cattle. Where
do the local butchers go for their
best beef? Why to Western North
Carolina and Virginia and then have
to take the culls because the home
market does not allow them to lisa
the best to be found in those local.
ties.
It is probable that a city abatoir
with cold storage to rent would help
toward making a city market what
it should be in this respect. 1t would
be a decidedly safe step in advance
and not too long a step to provide
for such cOnvenlences and for the
city fathers to say that all the meat
offered for sale in the city must be
from animals inspected alive and
dressed at the city abatoir or from
animals so inspected elsewhere and
to be accompanied by the certificates
of inspection if imported into the
city.
At present the Western dressed
breef is sought by all who appreciate
good toothsome beef and who think
they can afford to pay for it. The
price is forty per cent. or from thirty
to seventy per cent. higher than the
common small native freshly-dresSed
meat. In order to meet the COmpetl-
ton the market must be regulated by
some such regulation as that named
above. Then farmers must begin
early to breed stock suited to make
good beef and feed it for growth and
the best development Of the best
cuts. It will take time to grow up
stock to make a reasonable
competition with this Western prod
uct. In the first place the cattle
ticks must be destroyed on the farms
and highways and then several more
years will be required to put the
earliest maturing animals on tn0
market. F. H. H.

the three mas,ed schooner Florence
Shay. The board consisted Of Captains
William Lauder and George +. Fhil-

schooner he towed to dock, and that

vessel so that extent of damage might
be ascertnined.
This board says. though not officially.
that this was the most peculiar acct
dent coming within their experience.
The stcrnpost rudder and all Of the
attend Of the cabin WAS driven into
the vessel. and rammed and TANNED so
tightly that the leakage was compare
lively small.
The wife and little child of Captain
Smith. of the schooner, were in the for
ward part of the cabin fast asleep
when the schooner was struck. They
were rudely awakened, but not injured.
Their escape is indeed fortunate. The
vessel will be repaired here.
