HOW MEAT is MADE UEwHoLEsoME.
A complainant yesterday called the attention OF the
Board of Health 10 practice which 10 not only shock
ing but also noiorious-that OF bringing calves and
sheep 10 market with their feet tied and loaded upon
carts and wagons in such manner that they become
fearfully swollen and shameuly muilated after which
treatment they are slaughtered and offered for sale
He says that by this the flesh becomes nflamed
and unwh0lesome and we doubt not the community
fully agree with him.
The same writer complains, also, Of the habit Of
Glowing meat" He charges butchers with insert
ing tube into the fatty parts Of slaughtered animals
and blowing them out full often with the fGtid breath
Of men who impregnated with whisky and tobacco
90 that the meat Is contaminated and rendered un-
healthy He further says that such meat in warm
weather Is readily trainted and offers that fact In
evidence of its unwholesomeness He prays the Board
if II has the power to remedy the evils OF which he
complains.

and says he is Obliged to receive 1t only at the dock and
remove il thence lie takes issue with the Board OF
ea tn concerning the stipulation In the CONTRACT ior
removing offa from the saughterhouses 20 the DOCK
lie insists that the butchers must do their own eartng
but the contract The opinion OF the attorney or the
Board explicitly makes il Incumbent upon the con-
tractors TO remove from any point at which IT may be
delivered on the street II the question be pressed We
presume 1t will compel legal decision.
