A FRENCH statisticlan, NJ, II. De Dar.
Vile, shows that while England con.
sumes eight times aud Belgium six
times as much salted meats prepared in
the United States, as France, there Ia no
trichinosls In those countries. France
takes annually from ten to llfteen thou
sand live hogs, and more than one mil.
lion kilogrammes Of salted meat from
Germany, where trichinoslsis Is epidemic
aud yet no complaint Is raised against
that trade. II is only against Amerl.
can hogs that the clamOr Is made, aud
this has induced an eminent French
economist, NJ. MOlInari, to ask, what,
then, is trichinosisY" A question "a
which he happily answers, "lt Is a pro,
tectionlst malady." The whole question
Of the prohibition against American
pork In France, as well as In Germany
could not have been better expressed In
few words, II " a dose Of our own med,
iclne In roundabout way. In re.
cent report by the Secretary Of State IA
Congress, the following statement Is
officially made by that high function
ary:
No single instance based on compe-
tent scientific testimony can be adduced
OF trichlnosis IN Europe arising f. ON
the use OF American packed swine pro.
duets. In every single case In Germany
II has been found that the disease IL
traceable TO the consumption Of freshly
killed native hogs, aud that lts vlru.
