NEATSFOOT OIL

is a high grade industrial oil obtained from the feet of oxen, sheep, horses, etc. It is pale yellow, nearly odorless and of bland taste. It is commercially valuable because of its property of remaining liquid at a freezing temperature and it is therefore employed for lubricating exposed machinery, clocks, etc.
