C. TradeEasy to Chew Eaters of meat who have the impression that some of the beef they buy is more suitable for the manufacture of automobile tires than it is for human consumption are apparently harboring a miscon- ception. They were disillusioned by the Bureau of Standards, which has Jjust completed tests requested by the Department of Agriculture to determine how tough beef can be so standards might be fixed on the basis of resistance to mastication. Using machines designed for measuring resistance of fibers'to various stresses, the experts found even the toughest plece of meat supplied by the department too delicate to have any valuable in- dication of strength sufficient for anything but table use. With this much established, H. L. Whittmore, head of the bureau’s mechanical section, said the task of fixing standard toughness for beef would be continued with more delicate machinery than has hitherto been utilized.
