plenty Of landscape garden walks in
the immediate vicinity Of the hotel,
and some of them ambitiously pene-
trated into the woods, relapsing from
the civilization of beaten gravel into

Method of Marking Meat In the Great
Beef Markets.
CONTINUED Next Week.

Method of Marking Meat In the Great
Beef Markets.
There are about fifty men in the me-
tropolis, says the New York Sun, who
know how to make meat skewers keep
record of their business transactions.
These men are the representatives of
the Chicago packers, who sell thou
sands of quarters of beef every day to
butchers.
The work of these men Is accom-
plished with great rapidity. Frequent
~ they are making sale to a dozen
butchers at the same time, and to re-
cord these sales in book would not
only consume lot Of time, but would
be difficult, as all quarters of beef look
alike.
AS soon as sale is made the sales
man sticks skewers into the quarter
selected by the butcher. The skewers
are placed in such way that each
butchers purchases are easily picked
out when the time comes for deliver
ing them.
AS some of the statesmen have as
many as a hundred customers In a
day, it is evident that as many combina
lions of the skewers have to be form
ed. In no case are more than three
skewers used on a piece of beef.
In one big icebox there are twenty
rows of quarters, with forty quarters
in each row. In each piece Of beef
were skewers, placed at various angles,
straight up, two of them crossed and
IN every conceivable combination.
Il know by these skewers whom each
piece belongs to-" said the salesman.
Every beef house salesman has his
own signs.
.'This method of marking the meat
serves several purposes in addition to
that of saving time. A salesman from
another house could not come in here
and find out what my customers have
bought by looking at the skewers,
which would be easy enough If the
meat had their names on.
Neither can one butcher find out
what quality Of beef another is buy
ing. / could make thousand signs
without using more than three skewers
on any one piece Of meat"
