600 See Lamb Cutting
Demonstrations Here
More than 600 persons attended
four demonstrations on the proper
cutting and uses of lamb which were
staged Tuesday night and Wednes
day.
This included more than 500 stu
dents of Bismarck high school, more
than 30 girls from the U. S. Indian
school, 45 members of various wom
en’s clubs here, and a score of local
butchers.
The demonstrations were given by
Max O. Cullen, representative of the
National Livestock and Meat Board,
and were arranged by the state agri
cultural college. Accompanying Cul
len here was Prof. Al. Severson of the
state college.
Cullen said the average consump
tion of lamb per person is six times
as great throughout the United
States generally as it is in North Da
kota and 14 times as great in the
New England states as in North Da
kota.
He pointed out that consumption
of lamb in this state should Increase
with the expansion of sheep raising,
which has been marked in the last
several months since North Dakota
farmers are securing sheep to teed
on a share basis.
The purpose of the demonstrations
was to show how lamb can be cut
most economically.
