EXPERIMENTS SHOW VALUE
OF LAMB AND MUTTON FOOD

The production of sheep for wool
alone is rapidly on the wane in the
| United States. More and more EN-
phasis is being placed on the produc-
ton of lamb and mutton for the table,
although only 81 per cent of the meat
consumed by the average American
for the last five years was lamb or
mutton. This production should be
much larger, according to the United
States department of agriculture, as
mutton and lamb are among the most
healthfui, nutritious and palatable of
meats.
The reason for the limited use of
lamb and mutton throughout the cen
trail sections of the United States
probably had its origin in the days of
the development of the great corn
belt region west of the Appalachian
mountains, department workers say.
AT that time, the sheep owned by the
settlers of that region came largely
from the North Atlantic states and
had been developed almost without
exception for wool production, regard
less of the inherent flavor of the
meat The flesh of these animals was
no doubt tough, not so palatable as
other meats and possibly, owing to
the crude method of caring for it,
much of it was unfit for use. AS this
section of the country has been some
what slower in the development of
mutton breeds of sheep, and as much
generation to generation, there has
developed the idea that all sheep is
not appetizing and carries peculiar
| flavOrs
There is a characteristic taste In
cooked mutton and lamb, due to the
chemical contents of the meat fat,
makes it easy to distinguish from 9TH
er meats. The same is true of beef,
chicken, venisOn, or rabbit. In order to
pl owe that this taste is not unwhole-
| some and that the meat was palatable
Experiments were made by the bureau
of animal industry of the department
of cooperation with the office OF home
economics. which proved that NUT
ton are wholesome, appetizing, and
economical meats for family use,
ranking well up with other meats in
food value per pound. The fact that
a small proportion of sheep carcasses
are condemned under government
meat inspection furthers the opinion
| of department workers that mutton
and lamb should be used more gen
ally.
