Prejudice Against Heavy
Lambs in Many Quarters

OF late years there has been q
growing prejudice among consumers
against heavy lambs. There is no
doubt that the texture of meat of a
large animal is coarser than that of a
small one, but the difference is SO
slight that 1t would take a scientist to
discover 1t.
The real trouble is that In certain
quarters the word lamb has be-
come rather elastic. 1t has been ap-
piled to sheep of all ages with the
result that the consumer feels 1t
safest to purchase the smallest spec
linens he can find and is usually will
Ing to pay more for this kind.
In reality lambs are no exception
to the general rule. Small animals
Of other classes are no usually pre-
ferred to large ones. There Is no
doubt that lamb properly grown up to
It's or $50 pounds weight is better food
than the same lamb marketed at 90
or 100 pounds. At the latter weight
he should be consumed without any
waste.
Sometimes the heavier breeds are
marketed In an unfinished condition
for the purpose Of keeping the weight
within what is considered the margin
Of safety. This practice should be dis
couraged for the quality Of meat pro-
duced must certainly be of n low class
The way to overcome the difficulty
with lambs of heavy breeds is to begin
to feed them for market a couple Of
months younger than is necessary with
the smaller breeds.
