DRESSING PERCENT
AGE GOVERNS PRICE

(By c. d. Lowe, Division of Extension,
University of Tennessee.)
The price paid for meat producing
animals on foot, is almost entirely
governed by the amount of edible
product that It's carcass will yield.
Many times the animal costing the
most per pound on foot yields the
cheapest meat-for example, thou
sand pound steer dressing 50 per cent,
sells for &c per pound-such carcass
gives 500 pounds of beef at cost Of
$50, or lie per pound. Another 1000
pound steer dressing go per cent, sells
for &c per pound and yields 600 pounds
of meat at gross cost Of $40, or II No
per pound. Thus the &c steer was able
to furnish beef to the killer at less
cost per pound than the one bringing
&c per pound on foot.
The dressing yield OF cattle varles
all the way from 40 to 70 per cent of
their gross weights, depending upoR
several factors. The yield almost al-
ways goes up with increase In age, un-
Ill maturity, unless the animal IL stunt
cd during It's development, and then II
is always low. Condition also has its
Internationally the fatter the ami
NAL the higher the dressing percent
age. Form and finish are two impor-
tant Influences animals with COM
pactness OF form and of low, bloeky
type, properly finished, will most al
ways produce the highest yields Of ed
ible product.
Slaughter losses come most largely
from the following: the paunch and
intestines and their contents, together
with the blood, makes up about rs per
cent OF the waste; the head, pluck and
feet make up another per cent; and
with other parts, such as liver, tongue,
hide, tail, etc, average about 40 per
cent of live weight of animal. 1t 10
evident that these latter parts are not
complete losses, and 1t is often said
that the utilization OF these byprod-
ucts by the packer is his only source
OF profit.
When your neighbor is able to out
sell you on his stock, stop and consider
whether the buyer has not seen more
real meat in his lot and was therefore
able to pay accordingly.

Ever Salivated by Calomel!
Horrible!
Calomel is Quicksilver and acts
like dynamite on
your liver.

Calomel loses you day! You know
what calomel is. It's mercury; quick
silver. Calomel is dangerous. 1t
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never be
put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish, cOn-
stipated and all knocked out and be-
lieve you need dose of dangerous calo-
mel just remember that your druggist
sells for so cents large bottle Of
Dodson's Liver Tone, which is entirely
vegetable and pleasant to take and is a
perfect substitute for calomel. 1t is
guaranteed to start your liver without
stirring you up inside, and can not
salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t makes you
sick the next day; it loses you a days
work. Dodson's Liver Tone straightens
you right up and you feel great, GIVE
it to the children because it is perfect
ly harmless and doesn't grippe.
