Van Es' Reply.
In his opinion regarding the several
subjects brought up by DR.. Carpenter
Professor Van Els has the following
to say:
Agricultural College. N. D., Dec. /.
19oe.-Dr. g. A. Carpenter, City
Health Omcer. Fargo, N. d: Dear
Doctor:-Permit mo to acknowledge
the receipt of your favor Of the first
inst. and to say that its contents were
carefully noted.
In reply to your question in regard
to the time for inspection, wish to
say that animals should both be in
spected before and after slaughter.
In regard to the ante-mortem inspec-
ton, beg to say that this inspection
Is always essential, not only as a
means OF preventing the slaughter O.
unit or diseased animals, but espec-
tally as a safeguard for the owners of
such animals. Without ante-morten
inspection the inspector would be fire.
quently compelled to condemn car
casses on post-mortem examination
on account of defects or disease of a
transitory nature, and which in many
cases can be recognized before
slaughter. l mentioned here such
conditions as for advanced pregnancy,
various in1ammations, assesses. etc.
Such cases could be returned to their
owners and would not occasion the
financial loss resulting from post
norton condemnation.
In the matter of post-moftem in
spection beg to advise you that this
must be done at the. time when the
internal organs are attached to the
carcass which means practically that
inspection must be done during the
time of slaughter. Meat inspection
should also be carried on after
slaughter, especially In regard to meat
In storage, as this would prevent the
sale of putrid or decomposed meats.
In the matter Of diseased carcasses
l am Of the opinion that 1t is impos.
sible to judge In any way their fitness
for human food. for the condition of
the internal organs will always re-
main the criterion by which this can
be done. With those organs removed
the inspector would not be able to
diagnose number of diseases which
renders the meat unwholesome. A hog

THE 1v1N1Na TIMES. GRAND FORKS N. d
DR.. Van Els Discusses
Meat Inspection Law
State Veterinarian Says Inspections Before and During
slanghtering Are Necessary to Insure Wholesome
Meats-Favors Central Abattoirs

Fargo, N. D., Dee. 6.-Since the en-
actnent Of the meat inspection ord
nance and the slaughterd-house ord
nance in this city there has been
more or less complaint on the part Of
the butchers that the two ordinances
were too drastic and that they worked
hardship on butchers in the city and
also on farmers who bring meat into
this city to sell
In order to get an opinion on some
Of the most vital question involved
and also an opinion on the benefits
derived from meat ispection and IL
censed slaughter-houses. DR.. G. A.
Carpenter, city health oficer, has
written to Prof. L. Van Es. chief state
veterinarian, for his opinion on these
different subjects. Professor Van Els
has given the subjects which are daily
contended in this city by butchers
much study, and his opinion in re-
gard to the several questions asked
by DR.. Carpenter are decidedly weigh
ty and are Of much Importance not
only to the city of Fargo but to the
entire country.
Fargo. N. d.. Nov. 80, 1906.-Doc-
tor Van Els. My Dear Doctor:-since
the enactment of our city meat inspec-
ton ordinance and slaughter house
ordinance there has been considerable
discussion as to their merits
Knowing that you have given these
subjects great deal of study and in
vestigation, would be pleased to OBJ
tain your opinion relating to both
meat inspection and also construction
and operation of slaughter house.
What is the best time for inspec-
ton? Before. during or after time
Of slaughter?
Is there any way to carry on eff
'acient inspection on dressed carcass
SEES coming into the city from rural
districts? and is 1t possible for un-
wholesome meat to be sold IL such
dressed carcasses were inspected i'm
mediately upon arrival in the city.
What are the special advantages of
central slaughter house? And what
are the most essential features of a
public slaughter house?
Thanking you in advance,
I remain,
G. A. CARPENTER.
City Health Onicer.

nay GET FURTHER APPROPRIATION
$4,000 Nero for Crookston B,ildinr
IN United States Treasurefs
Estimate.

In the estimate which the U. 8.
treasurer made to congress at it's
opening session as to the amount of
money which would probably be need
ed the coming year. is an item of
$4,000 for the Crookston public build
ing.
While this means nothing definite
in the way of an appropriation, yet It
goes to show that in all probability
sCrookston will get a further appro-
priation toward it's public building at
this session Of congress-. The appro-
priation already made amounts to
$4,000. and with another $4,000
would be $1,000, which would be
nearer the probable actual cost Of the
building,

may have been, efBeetsd. with cholara,
or tuberculosis and the. LESSONS may
nave been confined to the viscera
and removed with, them; in such a
case the inspector would not be, able
TO detect anything wrong with the
. meat. which certainly could not be
considered wholesome food. Even
after inspection upon arrival the sale
OF dressed carcasses would amount to
the sale of uninspected meat, and
would leave the way open for many
abuses, either innocent or fraudulent
ones.
The advantages of a central abbatoi-
are many, the more prominent ones
being: Having opportunities for ef-
icient inspection, economy in slaush-
tering, increased responsibilities In
cleanliness and sanitation, without
mentioning the better opportunity to
utilize by-products: aside from the
teehnfcaf advantages Of q properly
conducted abattoir there is one which
l think affects the producer on the
farm. The so-called meat scandals OF
tho past year have awakened In the
general public an interest in their an.
imal food products and it is not reas-
enable to suppose that with the rigid
supervision of the large packers IN.
der the new meat inspection law, the
public will prefer meat stuffs &C.
cured under these conditions, and
would 1t not be to the advantage of
the home producers that they could
nave access to a local abbattoir where
slaughtering is carried on under su-
pervision, so that locally produced
meats can enter the market on the
same footing as that from the large
packing centers.
Among the most essential features
OF the slaughter house I would men
ton q location near the railroad whore
stock yard facilities could be secured.
Sanitary construction in regard to
walls and floors, and abundant supply
OF water. plenty of light and ventila-
ton, good drainage and cold storage
facilities and equipment for economic
handling Of the carcasses and of the
utilizing of the offal and by-products.
In Germany, where meat inspection
has perhaps reached its greatest per-
lection. municipal abatttoirs are the
rule, and would favor this plan al
though I know Of some instances
where abbattoirs are owned and opera
ted by stock companies and work very
successfully. In these cases think
that most of the stock is owned by the
local butchers.
In the hope Of maving answered
your inquiries sufficiently full and
clear. beg to remain,
Yours very truly,

WORKED 4 NEAT little sW|NOlE
Photographs Would be Enlarged by
Company Free OF
Char1e.

Crookston Times: 1t would seem
that all the schemes for charging
photographs had been worked to
death. but the latest swindle to be
worked on the city has been quite
successful, and has been productive
of good many dollars to the United
Art company. whose large studios are
located at Minneapolis. About Sept.
10. Eber e. Smith, representing the
company. appeared IN the city and
went to number Of homes, asking
for photograph of some member Of
the family, stating that he was COL
lecting the photographs of prominent
Crookston people for his company.
The company would then enlarge them
free of cost and have an exhibition In
the opera house to show what good
work they could do. Many of the citi-
zens parted with their photographs
and signed, as they supposed, an
agreement to show that they had let
the agent take thei. photograph with
him. A number, however, refused to
sign the agreement.
About two weeks ago the pictures
appeared, and also another agent. He
delivered the pictures and also bills
for SIS apiece. When people protested
he flashed the agreement in their
faces, and they then saw that it was
contract authorizing the charging
of their photograph. Several refused
to take the enlarged picture and the
agent returned the latter part OF last
week with another man who intro
duced himself as Mr.. Peterson, man
ager Of the United Art company, and
who tried to pursuade the people to
take the works of art and incidentally
part with their SIS. When they re-
fused, he threatened to bring suit
against them and left. The people
who refused to take their pictures are
not worrying much over the suit,
however. as the whole scheme was
simply clever swindle on the part
OF the agents.
