Couy.e today was the lecture OF Mr.
John Costing, of Kansas City, upo1
tho various cuts OF the animals which
had been slaughtered for the meat
Demonstration. Mr.. Costing had be-
fore him perhaps the largest crowd
who ever witnessed such a denonstra-
ten. He was assisted by Mr.. Young
m expert meat cutter from Chicago
who cut up the carcasses,
The most distinguished animal was
the sensational Shropshire wether which
had been brought to this country last
spring by Professor w. j. Kennedy
from the Sandringham estate Of King
Edward VII, who had bred him. This
is the wether which Judge David Nc
Kay, the Sheep judge at the lnterna-
tional stock Show, said was the finest
animal he ever saw. Mr.. Gosling was
equally enthusiastic In praising the
kings pet on the block. He dressed
the phenomenal percentage Of 81 per
cent.
In the beef classes. Little Jack the
winner of many International honors,
was compared with q medium good
! steer and . Gamer. This was an mn
!, pressive lesson Of how different AMI
mails appear on foot arssan the biock,
and showed what could zone by Jul
! dicious selection and careful feeding.
Another objective lesson was Wit
messed BY the visiting farmers when
the loin OF Black Thorn, the champion
beef carcass at the last international,
va displayed alongside Of the three
other loins Of beeves just mentioned.
This choice cut was saved by Profes-
sor Curtiss when Black Thorn was
killed at Chicago
