Packing House By-Products.

The by-products in the packing
house industry may be divided into two
casses-the edible and the inedible
The inedible constitute the external
covering Chair, horns, hoofs and hides),
some of the offal, and the bones. From
these are prepared a great variety of
substances, some of which have de-
veloped into enormous industries in
themselves, such as leather, soap, glue
and fertilizer. The last mentioned rep
resents the ultimate utilization Of
packing house waste. For example,
in the manufacture of buttons, combs,
knife handles and spatulas from the
horns and hoofs of cattle \and sheep
and the hoofs Of hogs the waste re-
sultlng from the preparation of these
articles was at one time thrown away
but 1t has been found that by treating
such material with sulphuric acid the
nitrogen which 1t contains becomes
available as fertilizer.

to see Martha. Even though she were
married to another man, he wanted to
see her again.
AS Tom stood in the depot waiting
for the train that would take him to
LynnewOod, he reviewed the past few
days with satisfaction. They had been
busy days, but he had left everything
in good shape, so that he would be
free from worry and could take his
time about coming back
BY the time he had arrived at the
little southern town he was a boy
again. As he alighted at the station
and glanced down the clean, white
streets, with their lovely shade trees,
he wondered how he had ever come
to leave 1t all. He recognized several
people on the platform, and at first
there came pang Of disappointment
when they did not speak to him. Then
he remembered why The day before
he left the city he had conceived the
idea Of returning home incognito.
The result was the purchase Of a
sandy wig to cover his dark hair, large
dark glasses and regular country
clothes. And none knew better than
Tom tust what to buy There were
blue overalls, straw hat and gray
tweed suit, which he had donned that
morning.
lie would hire himself as a farm
hand somewhere near Martha's home.
And, disguised as he was, he could see
her often, and perhaps talk to her
without being recognized. Then fate
took a hand in helping Tom.
The Abe Cory farm was just on the
other side of Martha's home and their
gardener had left them the day before,
so Tom got the job. He learned that
Martha was still single and was Dy'
Ing alone, her father having died.
Mrs. Cary had not favored hiring the
new gardener, concerning whom, as
she told her husband, they knew moth
Ing. He had merely given the name
