The Social and Literary Club OF Warrenton

II HAM

Kansas City Star: One of the curious
businesses that men engage in is nam
smelling in. packing houses. 1t is a
business allied with that of tea tasting,
wine testing and the like. The ham
smeller is technically known as q ham
tester. 1t is his business to inspect meat
products and judge of their soundness.
This is lone before the meats leave the
house or when they are bought from
other concerns to fill a shortage.
The ham smeller's only tools are a long
steel trier and his nose. 1t is often neces-
sary to test hams after they come out OF
the sweet pickle and before they go into
the smokehouse. The ham smeller stands
in a barrel to keep his clothes from being
soiled by the dripping brine and the hams
are brought to him by workmen. A ham
is laid before him and he plunges his
sharp pointed trier into it, WithdraWs 1T
and passes it swiftly beneath his nose.
knuckle joint. In testing meat in that
manner the man with the trier judges by
the slightest shade of difference between
the smell n one piece of meat and an
other. The smell of the meat is almost
universally sweet and that is what he
smells, the slightest faint or deviation
from the sweet smell is, therefore, APP
probable. 1t is not the degree Of tainted
ness that he expects to find, but the
slightest odor that is not sweet. When
he detects an odor he throws the meat
aside, and if it is not unwholesome it is
sold as rejected" meat. but if it is faint
ed it goes to the rendering tank. The
ham tester smells meat from Z o'clock in
the morning until 5 o'clock at night and
his sense must never become jaded OIL
i~nexact, Or his usefulness would be at ar
end.
Ham testing is not a pursuit dangerous
to the health, as tea testing is supposed
to be, but the ham smeller with a colo
in his head is like a piano player Wit
loses his arm in a railroad wreck.
