The Steam Cow.
" There you have it, sir, as fine on
article of butter im ever was produced,"
exclaimed a manipulator of weights and
measures in one of the well known
grocery stores of this city, as lie. placed
his left hand on his hip and with the
right hand thrut a butter ladle under
the nose of the reporter : " there you
have it, sir, look at it, taste it, and then
tell me what you think of it."
" It is-beautiful, smells ' sweet, tastes,
delicious, and I think it's a very tine
quality of butter," replied the critic,
obeying the salesman's instructions,
" but I wanted to inspect your oleomar
garine." " Exactly so," replied the clerk, " and
you have already done so and pronounc
ed it to be just what it is a lino quality
of butter."
" What? did I put that frightful stufT
in my mouth V I only wanted to look at
it,noteatit,"and with decided symptoms
of nausea the reporter made tracks for
the street gutter. Without succeeding
in accomplishing anything more than
eliciting thesympathy of the passers-by,
who exclaimed, " Poor fellow, he's
drunk," the reporter returned to the
dispenser of oleomargarine to settle with
him for being imposed upon.
" Well, you seem to have survived the
the shock," said the clerk with a smile.
" Now I don't mean any offence, but
you will permit mo to gay that ninety
nine people out of one hundred are just
as great fools on this subject of oleomar
garine as you have been. Do you know
what oleomargarine is composed of?"
"Tallow, soap, grease and tilth in
general, and I think it's mighty unkind
in you to "
"Stop! Stop 1" exclaimed the clerk,
interrupting the excited reporter. "Noth
ing of the kind : it's composed of the
very Bame constituent parts as those of
cow butter."
"So you say," suggested the skeptical
scribe.
"And so snys J'rofessor Chandler,
President of the New York Board of
Health, and Professor Wayne, a leading
chemist of the West, who have made a
careful analysis of the oleomargarine
aud pronounced the products as pure
aud wholesome as butter made from
cow's milk," explained the clerk.
" Now tell me, if you please, what the
stuff is made of, will you ?"
" Certainly, sir; but will you ilrst tell
me what cow butter is made from ? asked
the clerk.
" From milk," replied the reporter,
looking profoundly wise.
"True," returned the clerk, " but from
what is the milk derived ?"
" From er the cow," answered the
puzzled reporter not being much of a
student at anatomy.
" Yes from the fat of the cow," gra
ciously interposed the champion of con
centrated cow grease, "and oleomar
garine is made from the caul fat of
cattle. A French chemist named Meigs,
who was desirous of furnishingan article
of butter for the soldiers of the French
army at a less price than it could be
purchased for in the markets, discovered
this process of manufacturing thearticle.
He first selected a cow and steer of the
same age and put them both on the
same quantity of feed, and by this ex
periment discovered the fact that while
the steer was constantly gaining in flesh,
the cow, which was milked daily, grew
thinner in flesh, and from this he argued
that the only element of the cow's milk
was neither more nor less than the fat
of the animal. Then, by a process in
which science Imitates nature.the French
chemist devised a plan for extracting the
oleine troni the fat and converting it I
into a substance so closely resembling !
butter that even connoisseurs are often !
unable to detect it from the genuine !
material.
" You have wltnesed the procecs of
manufacturing It?" inquired the re
porter. '
"Oh, yes: there Is an extensive es
tablishment at Thirtieth and Callowhill
streets, where over 25,000 pounds are
made and shipped weekly to England.
Go out aud see It for yourself."
Accepting the suggestion, the news
paper man found a neat-looking estab
lishment, the floors and all appointments
in a scrupulously clean condition and
everything indicating the utmost care
to avoid the possibility of any foreign
pubetaucefc comiug in contact with
tliembntance in the process of manu
facture.' ; ...
." Flrtt we select only the caul fat of
the Meer'explainid Mr. Martin ; then
this is put into theee large tanks and
thoroughly washtd. Then it is removed
to other tanks, ai-htd again, and all
the tallowy tubttunce is carefully cut
iV, m d alter till operation Is completed
it receives Its third and lust purification
by water."
"The next process Isthatof rendering
the fat, which is done In immense caul
drons at a low temperature, not to ex
ceed 125 degrees, but generally at 100,
about the temperature of animal heat."
" It Is iu tliis process that the patent
of the French chemist," explained Mr.
Fuller. " After passing through the
sieve and being cooled, the substance
known at this stage of the manufacture
as stearlne is placed in cloths and ar
ranged in layers In a hydraulic press,
which separates oleln from tliestearlne.
Then the former is mixed with certain
parts of milk and churned so as to break
the globules of oil, and after being sud
denly chilled by means of ice, the sub
stance is spread out on large tables. Ite
malnlng there a necessary length of
time, it is again churned, salted and
mnde ready for the table.
" I consider that the greatest inven
tion of the nge," said Mr. Martin, " for
it affords a luxury to the poor which, at
the present prices for butter, is denied
them, as this can be hud for eighteen
cents per pound."
How many manufactories of this ar
ticle are there in the United States?"
asked the Bcribe.
" I know of but three one in New
York, one in Chicago and our own,"
answered Mr. Joseph J. Martin, one of
the owners.
" Do you ship all your productions to
foreign markets?"
"Yes, in the main: we do not cater
for home trade, because we have all we
can do to supply our foreign demand;
but, I think,'' " the time is not far dis
tant when it will find as great demand
in this market as it finds abroad."
