into the scheme, which is to pickle the cucumbers right on the vine. The company will also go into the stock raising business end feed the product of our mine to the animals, and thus raise pickled tripe and pigs’ feet right on the hoof. It in bound to be a great thing, and there will be more than millions in it. We also expect to inaugurate a new method of making sauerkraut, by irrigating cabbage patches with vinegar.
A strange but actual fact connected with the merits of our discovery is that it is a remarkable hair invigorator, and I believe it wold grow a crop of hair on a billiard ball. We intend to bottle wine and put it on the market for that purpose. Work on the mine is still going on, and if our least expectations are realized, pipe lines will be built to the leading cities of the state to supply the demand. It has been suggested that the product could be used for drinking and domestic purposes in Butte, and be a great improvement on the water supplied us in summer. The vinegar mining industry is yet in its infancy, and the possibilities that will grow out of it are yet beyond imagination.”
The officers of the Beaverhead Vinegar Mining company are: President, Col. John Doyle; vice-president, Angus Mcqueen; treasurer, Tom Butterfield; directors, Tom Gilechrist, of Helena, Hugh J. Muldoon and Ernest Lange, of Butte.
