...Steak Co. has improved on Butcher Dubil's original process. "Chips" are made from rounds and loins, which are first cleared by butchers of bones, sinews and fat, then packed into loaves in metal containers which are quick-frozen, at 15° below zero. After 24 hours of sub-zero freezing they are tempered at 30°, then thin-sliced and packed into six-layer steaks (a super-steak can be made by stacking two such steaks) and sold in two sizes, six-inch ovals for household use, four-and-a-half-inch ovals for restaurants.

...they have been or will be purchased and thawed out for use by big manufacturers of mayonnaise, macaroni, pastry, candy and ice cream. Frozen eggs differ from cold-storage eggs in that they are packed in bulk, not in the shell, are not merely chilled but actually frozen at sub-zero temperatures and may thus be preserved for from one to two years, whereas cold-storage eggs are usually kept not more than six months.

Plenty of cattlemen present remembered the tough old days. Past President Charles E. Collins, who has been in the saddle for 50 years and still rides his 50,000 Colorado acres in sub-zero weather, could recall the time when nothing except long-horn cattle roamed the range. And presented to the convention was Rev. L. R. Millican, 84, a wrinkled, white-thatched Baptist circuit-rider who as a boy knew General Sam Houston, father of Texas independence...
