LOG Sausage No Joke.
The old joke about eating ''hot dog
Is no joke in Germany any more, for
no less than 1000 CANNES of various
breeds were slaughtered and eaten by
the subjects of Kaiser William last
year, according to report from Consul
George N. lift at Annaberg. The eat
ing Of horse meat seems to be quite
general In Germany, for no less than
$4,000 horses were slaughtered for
human food in 1906.
"Horsefesh is very generally advcr-
tised in the German papers," says
Consul lift, especially in those in
large industrial centers, and most Ger
man cities have at least one market
which makes it specially, claiming
for it higher percentage Of nourish-
ment than that of beef, veal, mutton
or pork. Neither is it unusual to find
advertisements Of dog meat or for the
purchase of dogs for slaughter. In the
city Of Cassel recently the police. in
searching for lost dog, discovered q
private slaughter house and arrested
the proprietors, who were apparently
making a regular business of stealing
and killing dogs"
In the city Of Chemnitz alone, Con-
sui lift reports, sos dogs were slaugh-
tered for human food in 1905, this be-
ing an increase of eighty-eig over the
previous year.
