elty to! Animals.
By as careful an estimate as 1
hart been able to make from the
examination oC federal andstate
statistics something over a hun
dred million of cattle, sheep and
swine are slaughtered every year
in this country in what we may
speak of as its public and private
slaughterhouses.. Ono has but to
think of 5 what is Involved in this
statement to understand that, hu
man nature being what It is, the
traffic in meat beinr carried on as
it is, now in vast wholesale estab
lshments, and now In the obscur
ity of a thousand little barns or

resolved never to repeat the sad
experience.

ters and refuges; .but the cattle.
the swine that die -each day, the
lambs that are led to the slaugh
ter without fa cry, these we see
not, think not of. so out of our
world they seem to be.
Present Method.! Described
You must permit me briefly to
describe to .you the methods that
characterize tne average slaugh
tering establishment as it exists
among us. : Th larger animals,
such as the bullock and the cow,
are: generally stunned either by a
blow which shatters the brain or,
in some cases, by a bullet." The
bleeding follows while the animal
is, of course, unconscious. Whre-
tory of the show. For the first
time every available foot of space
from the top of thev big building
i th lower floor .will be filled
with automobiles, there being no
room for any commercial vehielea
or side lines of the automobile
business.
Announcement of tne show
states that this Is to be an exhi
bition of values Most makes are
now down to pre-war price levels,
but the present automobile going
under the old name can hardly be
compared to the vehicle of those
days.
Another important feature of
the 1922 display is that the prod
uct to be shown Is the first pro
duced by the standard American
factories since getting to their
new basis of competition. In the
months following the war in what
are now called the "boom"
months no factory had time to
consider improving its product.
The demand for cars from a world
starved by war was so great that
quality -or improvement In the
cars could not be thought of. The
only problem was mora automa-
i biles.
Then came the relaxation and
now the natural product of a let
up In the demand. Already sever
al of the old makes have appeared
with an automobikii that resem
bles the old in name only. This is
particularly true In the low and
medium price fields. Automobiles
that for years seemed to have ar
rived at a certain standard are
now announced Jn; entirely new
designs from motor to top. Old
makes show the change In a dif
ferent way. Certain highly stan
dardized lines considered perfec
tion almost in motor car making,
appear with still greater refine
ment or else In various luxurious
body models.
But through it all is the ide of
new value values that almost

across the throat. Death ensues at

even before the knife is used. The
animal's feet are. first made fast
by chains; or ropes, then It is

calves, sheep and swine, the cus
tom is almost universal among
American butchers to kill with the
knif j without arry attempt to ren-
der the animal first insensible to
pain. So 'far as I can learn, in
some instances calves are stun
ned before they are bled, but the
common practice with calves and
shefcp and swine is to haul them
up by a hind leg, or with calves
and sheep hang their legs, tied
together. Over a hook, and then to
cut their throats.
I have stood,, more than once,
with watch in Vy hand and timed
the dhath struggle of 'many of
these unfortunate animals and
found that it was anywhere from
two to five, and In some cases six
minutes before it ended and the
mt i . . - . . .

know is wholly unnecessary. A

The Great find To Be Sought
What is the one first goal we
are to set before ourselves as hu
mane organizations, the attain
ment of which we are to seek In
the matter of slaughterhouse re
form? There can bv no question
as to the answer; It is the re
quirement by law that every ani
mal killed for human food shall
be first rendered unconscious by
some method of stunning before
tbJ) knife is thrust into its throat.
The Individual Appeal
And now to my individual read
er this Last appeal. Who creates
this demand that brings to the
shambles every year, to die at
man's hand the more than a hun
dred million of cattle, shaap and
swine that are annually sacrificed
for food? Every man, woman and
child who eats the meat their car
casses supply. After the last word
is said about the ranchman and
the railroad, about the callous
drover, the butcher whose hands
must drip with blood, the packer
who grows rich out of , his traffic,
-we come face to face with our
selves. But-for us there would be
no demand and no supply. Upon
us then, no less : positively aad
heavily rests tba moral obligation
to ,do the utmost that is within
our power to see that these vie
Um3 of our appetite and desire
are slain in what shall be to them
as painless and merciful a deth at
the noblost humanity can devise.
