A Matter of Temperature Air— Importance and Elfect of Acid and Grain Made Balance Food. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) The first evidences of change in erature and the production of carbonic acid gas. The heat can be demonstrated by hand and the pres- ence of carbonic acid gas is at to be suspected, since the lesso learned during the = days of eicaed silos still remain firmly impressed ,on the minds of many. The oxygen in the mass of cut fodder banal quickly used up early in the proc mentation.

Bacterta which ause decay and molds are inhibited 7 the acid poor medium of ferment- corn. The total amount or acid pe is between one and two per cent, of the weight of silage. Other products of the fefmentation are al- cohol and sugar. amounts of these are not large, being in the case of alcohol .1 to .4 per cent. or the weight of silage. The amount of sugar which disappears from the corn 8 almost exactly equivalent to the amount of alcohol and acid formed during fermentation. About one-half the — present in the recently en- siled| corn is cane sugar. This is broken dl into glucose and then changed to alcohol and acid. These changes take place rapidly. and are generally completed in 12 days, giv- ing and excellezt preservative me- dium, that will keep ensilage ror year How Fermentation Is Produced. The fermentation is brought about by plant enzymes carried by the corn; bacteria and yeasts, which may be attached to the cut corn or drift into the silo as it is being filled.

In. the United States and Erland as late as 1765 the slaughter of cattle for the supply of the public markets was up- known..- Meat was used of course, but only to-a limited extent 3s te animal ifidustry was in ifs infancy. Why Is Meat Tough? The toughness of meat is due to the thickness of the walls of the muscle tubes and excess of connec- tive tissue} which binds them to- gether, The young animal will, for reason, usually supply a meat that {s miore tender than that from old animals. Connective tissue, fascia anfl nerves are tough to chew, and e thinner the animal, fasola and Blood vessels, lym- Phatic vessels and adipose tissue also make up part of"the roast, but ao not'add to its toughness. Sources of Meat. In Ontario the principal source of meat is from-our farm animals— cattle, sheep, swine, rabbits and poultry. In many places, the flesh of horses, dogs and cats is used. This is particularly true of European and Asiatic countries, where the people are flesh-hungry, and the meats o cattle and sheep are expensive to * purchase, Meat, immediately after slaughter has an alkaline reaction d has a sweetish unpleasant flavor. It is also quite tough. The hardening of mus- cles or rigor mortis that. follows slaughter, is accompanied by a num- = of changes'that fortunately im- rove the meat. he principal of these changes are as follows: the de- vel sarcolactic acid, the connective tissue as the result of bacterial and antolytic enzymes, the i development of more pleasant flavors. It is not advisable to use meat-im-! § mediately after blaughter, if fee re- frigeration, or other proper storage is at hand. Two or three weeks in cold storage atatemperature of 36-38 degrees Farenheit,is well worth while n improving the edible quality of meats. Nutritive Value. The nutritive value of meat de- pends upen the presenee of proteins and fats. The meat bases, or nitro- genous extracts have little food value. These meat bases are the principal substances in beef extracts. Beef ex- tracts, while of no great nutritive importance, are valued because their —_o- are in a state of solution nd therefore easily absorbed td peo- Meat Inspection. ‘¥So long as animals are permitted , it-is* impossible to exercise a Proper control over meat as sold by butcher shops in the smaller cities ‘and towns.
