Cooking Meats by Cold.

Cooking meat by cold instead of BY
heat, said a wholesale butcher uptown.
lis the odd experiment that my firm has
recently been trying. l suppose you are
aware that the effect of intense cold is
much like that of fire. You know that
if your finger is frozen, the injured It's
sues take on precisely the same condition
that they would if the finger had been
roasted. Well, that is the basis we went
to work on, our motive being the idea
that with our ice-making plant it would
be cheaper, in our canning department,
to freeze our meet than to cook it. SO
far, in our experiments, we have had
good success. We have submitted the
meat to temperature of minus SO de-
grees Fahrenheit, and then have packed
it in cans. 1t has shown all the appear
ance of half cooked meat: it has been i'm
possible to tell the frozen and the half
cooked brands apart. So far, too, it has
kept well. But whether it viii keep as
well and as long as the meat treated
with fire we do not yet know, as our ex-
periments have not continued a sufficient
length of time. We will save about an
eighth of a cent "a pound on timed meats
if we succeed in substituting cold for
heat in their preparation. Philadelphia

itures Of the postoffice department,
reported favorably resolution author
izing the committee to request the
postmaster general for papers con-
cerning the recent investigation of the
postoffice department. and asked inn
mediate consideration.
The seventeenth annual report Of
the interstate commerce commission
was transmitted to congress today. 1t
discusses at length the Elkins law.
Valuable as such an amendment Is.
says the report, it has added nothing
whatever to the power Of the com
mission to correct the tariff rates,
which are unreasonably high. or
which operates with discriminating ef-
feet, The report says that one sig
nificant thing in railway property for
the past three years has been the
marked and general advance in rates,
usually the result of the concentrated
action OF carriers. The requirement
OF the law that carriers should com
pete affords no protection to the pub
lie, 1t declares. 1t disputes the claim
Of the railway managers that the ad-
vance is justified by the Increased
cost OF operation. The appalling loss
Of life and property in collisions is
noted, and the commission urges the
desirability Of the introduction Of the
block system.
