representative  sales  rather  than  opini

VARIOUS  MEATS. 
( 'lioice  calves  scarce  and  higher.  Many 
lambs  arriving  in  had  order.  Both  lambs 
and  calves  sour  quickly  in  warm  weather, 
especially  if  drainage  at  the  neck  is  not 
sufficient  to  let  out  the  liquids.  All  meats 
sold  at  New  York  are  subject  to  City  and 
State,  and  in  some  cases.  Federal  inspec¬ 
tion.  This  is  often  a  troublesome  maf- 
t  t  for  the  dealer  hating  a  few  calves  or 
lambs,  as  be  is  unable  to  get  them  in¬ 
spected  early  enough  to  meet  the  most  de¬ 
sirable  trade.  It  is  a  common  thing  for 
a  dealer  to  sell  a  calf  and  be  unable  to 
get  inspection  and  make  delivery  in  time 
for  the  buyer’s  needs,  so  that  it  has  to  be 
sold  biter  at  two  or  three  cents  per  pound 
lower.  The  force  of  inspectors  for  this 
work  is  not  laige,  hut  the  writer  has  been 
several  hundred  times  over  this  market 
section,  and  knows  how  little  time  is  re¬ 
quired  to  cover  it.  especially  considering 
the  qiiick  and  casual  inspection  ordinarily 
given.  A  peculiar  feature  is  that  some 
concerns  gel  the  service  of  inspectors  with 
much  less  trouble  than  others.  Rumor 
says  that  money  or  its  equivalent  is  what 
makes  this  "niare  go.”  It  has  in  the  past, 
but  whatever  may  be  the  reason,  the 
present  method  is  as  actual  “restraint 
of  trade"  as  though  this  special  condition 
was  written  iu  the  anti- trust  law.
