THE MEAT INSPECTION SERVICE
Our People to Have the Beneat OF II
Well the Foreigner.


WASHINGTON. Sept. 17.-Secretary Morton has
Just issued an order broadening and perfect
Ing the meat inspection service OF the Agricul-
tural Department. After Oct. l all hogs
slaughtered for the Interstate and foreign
trade will be inspected before slaughter and
again at the time the carcass is being dressed
This has been enforced heretofore in the in
spection OF cattle and sheep only. The law
provides however. for an inspection Of all
meat which goes into the interstate trade.
and Secretary Morton has determined that our
own people shall have the benefits Of this in
spertion as we'll as the foreign consumer. The
microscopic examination o, pork which Is in
tended for export to countries requiring such
inspection will be continued. but will be con-
4 n ed to this trade.
The instructions to inspectors cover the in
ST ectioa Of cattle. sheep. and swine. and their
products. and will be enforced in all parts OF
the country. Inspectors are instructed to
condemn carcasses when affected by any dis
eases which are specified which would make
the desh unfit for human food Any organ or
part OF carcass which Is badly bruised or
affected by tuberculosis actinomycosis. alb
scess. suppurating sore, or tapeworm cysts
must be condemned
