Never throw away pieces of lemon
after they have been squeezed with the
lemon squeezer, for they come in han
dy for removing stains from the hands
and elsewhere Dipped into salt, they
will scour copper kettles nicely and
remove stains from brasswork. Lemon
like this will take stains, dirt and odor
from pans and kettles as nothing else
will. The odors of fish and onions can
thus be easily removed.

organize it. 1t possesses the four great
essentials to a successful packing cen
:. ter, namely, proximity TO the source
of supply, large near-lying markets for
meat, communications and cheap la
Dor.
Kalgan is only 90 miles from the
Mongolian prairie. Cattle and sheep
can be driven on foot to Kalgan in
two, or, at most, three days BY TAX
ing the mountain roads they can Craze
as they go, to within 30 miles of the
railhead. There are few places in the
world where grass. fattened cattle can
be brought so near a railroad in such
good condition.
As for markets, few cities are as
near grazing lands as Kalgan. Picking
one of the largest cities in the world,
is only l24 miles by rail from Kalgan.
At Peking the great trunk lines of
north China converge, affording rail
way transportation to Tientsin, Taku,
Shanghai and other ports, The Pc
king Hankow railroad connects the
capital city with Hankow and the
other great cities on the Nangtze river.
Meat packed at kalgan could therefore
be shipped by rail or by boat to most
OF the large cities of China, At Tien-
tsin, Taku and Shanghai it could be
transferred TO ships and carried to all
parts OF the world. a glance at the
map will reveal the fact that Mongolia
lies very near the seaports of north
China.
The prices Of cattle and sheep in
Mongolia are ridiculousIy low compared
with those prevailing in other parts Of
the world. Before the war grass fat
tened cattle could be purchased within
100 miles of Kalgan at prices ranging
from eight to fifteen dollars, American
currency, per head. BY going little
further north or west they could be
bought for from six TO nine dollars per
head Sheep could be bought at prices
ranging from so cents to 50, Amer
lean currency, and antelope could he
bought at about the same prices. In
order to be conservative, and assuming
that prices have doubled in Mongolia
since 1914. the cost of beef on the
hoof would still be less than one-eighth |
of what it is in our middle west.
As far as labor is concerned, there |
is no country in the world that has |
such an abundance of willing, indus
trious labor as China. Ordinary labor |
ran be found in north China in unlim
tied quantity for about 25 cents a day,
American currency. In kalgan expe
rienced butchers can be hired for 80
,ents asday. No packing house in any
western country could compete on the
score of labor costs with one estab-
ished at Kalgan.--Luther Anderson, in
Asia.
