BURRO BEEF PUT
 ON LIST OF FOODS

Burro beef is the latest addition to the list of foods brought to the fore by war conditions. In the Altar dis trict of the state of Sonora, Mexico, burros are now being slaughtered for their food value. Sonora, while not directly interested in the war, has felt it's economic effects, according to Mexicans affiliated with the state gov ernment.
 The burro of the Altar district is said to be worthless as a beast of burden, hence his use for food causes no loss in other ways. The animals are slaughtered at a soap plant at Sarac, where the fat is reclaimed for use in soap making, the hides are taken for lariats and thongs, and the carcasses are immersed in a garlic bath, which removes any unpalatable flavor. The meat is then sold to sol diers in Sonora and Sinaloa, who are said to have pronounced the sbeef'' tender, juicy and excellent.
 The demand created by these meth ods, it is said, has thinned the burro supply so greatly the Mexicans using any of the little beasts as domestic animals are compelled to keep them in fenced enclosures.
 It is said that any of them running at large are soon hunted down and taken to the slaughter pens.
