ness merely by developing this supply.
There are now available for slaughter
10000 cattle. and $4,000 sheep in the
feeding lots of farmers and sugar fac
tories, within radius of $50 miles Of
Salt Lake.
WHERE SUGAR COMES IN.
The sugar factories in the west have,
by the way, produced great change in
the livestock situation, and have caused
Its possibilities to expand materially.
One of the chief things that formerly
delayed progress was the lack OF VIM
ter fattening food. Hay alone was
used, but now the sugar pulp furnishes
abundant fattener In accessible locai-
ties, and in addition to this source, all
kinds OF grain Is being fed, the farm
ers even going so far as to ship In
Kansas corn to use for this purpose.
MEANS CHEAPER MEAT.
These cattle. when finally butchered
In prime condition, after being con-
ditioned in stock yards adjacent to
the packing plant, can be put ON the
market at from a cent to cent and
half per pound cheaper than pres
ent wholesale rates. and this should
enable retail butchers to make fair
profit, and still allow the public to
share In the reduced price. More than
that the plant Will probably have a
department similar 10 departments in
big eastern packing plants, where good
meat from the cuts that are not the
choicest, will be furnished butchers
at low rate so that those who cannot
AFFORD the finest qualities, will be able
to buy graded beef, that Is wholesome,
at reduced prices.
QUESTION OF TRUST CoNToRL.
The question Of trust control is nat
urally reasonable one, with the open
Ing of plant like this, but natural
conditions here are such that trust
control will be impracticable. In
the east they control by own
ing the central market n
long distance from the supplies
Here. however, the source of supply
will be at hand, and as soon rs the
packer tries To charge more than the
butcher can secure meat for on the
hoof, and dress II. he will find the
butcher buying IN the old way from
the farmer. a head at a time The
packing house hopes to secure q Is
small shop trade now by practising
such economies IN the butchering of
an animal that 1t can sell its carcass
cheaper to the butcher than he can
buy and kill for, considering the
amount OF waste he creates.
