stituents ably. Representative Jim" Taw-
ney of Minnesota, who stands for butter
making district-real, sure-enough butter
got into the game
Il understand" he said, that some of
Cowherd's bogus butter makers have found
substitute for beef, as we'll as butter, and
are to put II on the market"
Asked to explain, he continued:
Well. you know, they claim that oleo-
margarine is as good as butter, in that Il
contains all the elements and essentials of
butter. This led a Kansas City sharp 10
suggest that beef substitute might be ex-
tracted from the elements of beef. So he
went to experimenting with a little hay,
some fodder. some dry clover and some
bran.
Now II is claimed he can turn out dif-
ferent brands of beef substitute, according
to the materials used. substitute for
porterhouse steak comes with the bran
mash and timothy hay; good round steak
comes from ordinary hay; common board
ing house steak is obtained from fodder
and all. like the claim made for oleomar-
garine, as good as the genuine"
And Cowherd bought the cigars.
