National Inspection Of Meat.

The inspection of meat for interstate
commerce is, by direction of Congress,
conducted by the Bureau of Animal In
dustry. 1t was instituted in 1891, and
now there are 1913 abattoirs in 80 cities
where the Bureau inspects all meat
slaughtered. The number of live ami
mails inspected in 1897 was as follows:
Cattle. s.25o,o25; sheep. 8,o44,355;
calves, 448,9S3: hogs, 1886, 744;, total,
42,310,107. Of these the following
numbers were rejected: Cattle, 25, 146;
sheep, 1890; calves, 1858; hogs, 53.144;
total condemned, 92,304. This last to-
tai does not show large percentage
of diseased animals in this country, but
it is unpleasant to think that, without
government inspection, many of them
would find their way into the butchers
block; some would be condemned by
state or municipal inspectors. In ad-
dition to the above figures, there were
post-mortem inspections of 26,58O, $50
animals, and 1925 parts of carcasses
were condemned. Besides, there were
killed by city inspectors GAL cattle,
1927 sheep, 40 calves, and 2.0S1 hogs
that had been rejected in the stock
yards by the officers of the Bureau OF
Animal Industry.
Angle Of a Horses Foot.-By the
angle Of horses foot is meant the
angle formed by the wall and the
ground surface of the foot at the center
of the toe. In order to get the feet
alike in shoeing trotters horseshoers
usually measure the length Of the toe
and the height Of the heel from the
coronet to the bottom Of the wall. It
is we'll to remember that different
horses may have toes and heels Of the
same length and height, and yet the
angle of the foot may be different in
each case. A study Of a picture Of the
bones of the leg will show just what is
meant by a straight line striking the
center Of the pastern and coffin joints.
It means when straight line will pass
through the center of both position
bones and the coffin bone.-Horse Re-
