CATTLE INSPECTION.

The Committee On agriculture has
reported to Congress bill proyid-
ing for the inspection of live cattle,
hogs, and the carcuses and products
thereof which are subjects of in
sterstate commerce. 1t embraces
the provisions of Senator Vests bill
for the inspection of cattle intended
for export. 1t also authorized the
secretary of agriculture to make a
careful post-mortem examination of
cattle, sheep and swine killed at
slaughter houses, canning, sailing
and packing establishments, the
carcasses or products of which are
to be transported to any other state
or territory. The carcasses found
fit for food are to be marked, stamp
ed or labeled for Identification. 1t is
made unlawful for any person to
transport or to deliver to another
for the purpose any cattle, sheep or
swine or their food product which
have been declared to be unsound
or diseased.
The act is not to be construed so
as to apply to cattle, sheep or swine
slaughtered by any farmer upon his
farm, which may be transported
from one place in the United States
to another, but provides that if these
carcasses go to any packing or can
ming establishment and are intended
for interstate transportation they
are to be subject to the post-mortem
examination provided for. For in
stance, farmer in Texas can cart
beef in his own wagon to another
state and sell directly for immediate
consumption without coming under
the provisions Of the law. But if he
sells to a canning establishment
from his wagon or ships the meet by
a common carrier, he will be sub
iect to the act. The bill is said to
be aimed at the Enlargement barons.
Senator Vest favors the bill, and as
he has given much attention to this
subject his views are considered
sound by those who are interested
in the matter.
