One of the standard methods of dis
tinguishing lamb from mutton is to
inspect the first or ankle joint of the
front leg. In dressing a lamb the
knuckle, or end of the shank bone, is
brokekn off, and the end of the bone
presents a ridged and porous appear
ance. This is soft and moist to the
touch and carries decidedly red
color. AS the animal grows older the
bone becomes harder and whittier and
the knuckle becomes more firmly at
tached to the bone. This is the con-
dition during the yearling stage. The
knuckle still breaks off, but when this
occurs the end Of the shank bone pre-
sents a hard, rough appearance and
has lost much of its red color.
When the lamb has passed through
the yearling stage and has become a
sheep the bone has become so ossified
or hardened that the knuckle no long
err breaks off the end of the bone and
separation of the foot from the shank
is made at the ankle joint. Thereafter
the knuckle normally forms the ex-
IRENE end of the foreleg and presents
a hard, smooth, white surface with
two prominent poi She'd ridges. In the
case OF mutton the knuckle is fire.
quently broken off by mechanical
means in order to give the carcass a
resemblance to yearling or lamb. but
in these instances the bones are de-
cidedly Jagged and splintered and lack
the redness which is characteristic Of
lamb and yearling carcasses.
IL requires some study and applica-
ton TO learn to distinguish the various
