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. 8. 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 Yeed on 2 share basis, The purpose of the demonstrations was to show how lamb can be cut most economically. _ Jury Deliberates on Farmer Damage Suit A jury began deliberation on the suit of 10 Burleigh county’ farmers against the Soo Line Railway com- pany for $12,000 damages at 11:30 a. m.
