FILTH AND HORROR

Washington, June 4th.-Disclosure SO
horrifying as to be almost beyond belief
are made in the special report on the
Chicago Packing House prepared by
Charles P. Neill, commissioners OF Labor,
and James B. Reynolds, of New York,
and submitted to Congress to-day by
President Roosevelt. In his message ac-
companying the report, the President
characterizes conditions found by the
two investigators as revolving" and
urges immediate and drastic legislation
in the interests of health and decency.
He not only recommends the passage OF
the so-called Beyeridge amendment to
the agricultural appropriation bill, but
threatens to destroy the foreign business
OF the packers, should Congress fail to
provide for Federal inspection of meats
at all stages of preparations. In the
event of such failure, the President says
he will be compelled to order that inspec-.
ton labels and certificates on canned
products shall not be used hereafter.
Without these labels the products will be
excluded from European markets.
The Neill-Re5 nolds report is not nice
reading. Itisa story Of filth and pollu-
tion.
Some OF the statements made are ac-
tualIy sickening. The packers are charged
with displaying absolute disregard, not
only OF the accepted rules of sanitation
and cleanliness, but also those Of common
decency.
In describing dirty conditionsin the
meat handling rooms and the disgusting
practices of the employees, the two inyes-
tigators have been compelled to use plain
language. They tell only what they ac
tually saw during their two and half
weeks visit in packingtown. Numerous
affidavits were presented to them, most of
which were rejected as being beyond the
of verifcation in the limited
time at their disposal.

European and northern American emf.
grafton is rather shy of California and oul

forced to intermit his toll all through the
middle of the day and where there is no
long summer twilight to compensate for

Did you ever notice that talk doesn't
hurt man much? Perfection isn't looked
for in a man, and when some one tries to
iniure man by ranting about few
faults he has, the absent one, who is
probably attending to his own affairs, is
elevated in the hearers estimation, while
the informant is lowered accordingly. If
man knocks along, doing fairly well,
people realize that while he has some
faults, he has more virtues and they are
charitable enough to overlook these faults.
But it is different with girl or woman.

Start the Pigs Right.

Inc man who starts off his pigs OH
the corn ration about as soon as he can
AFTER they are weaned is laying in a
store OF trouble for himself later. There
is a trouble known to swine raisers as
contracted stomach, which results from
an improper ration. The animal is APP
parently "off it's feed'' but the fact is.
the ration has been so poorly balanced
that the stomach has not grown with
the growth of the rest of the BODY. If
the young pigs are to be allowed Il
range they will do more or less root
ing, eating of soil and sod as this IS
their nature, it will not hurt them, but
IL they are placed where one does not
wish the sod uprooted, then the ami
mails must be ringed. If middlings
and oilmeal are introduced with the
corn ration there will be considerably
less trouble Some of the stock foods
on the market have their greatest value
to the swine raiser who does not feed
a balanced ration and If these stock
foods can be obtained practically free
from drugs or condiments, they are
very valuable III such cases.

The starvation Habit.

A story was recently printed in this
column of some soldiers who could not
sleep in comfortable hotel beds, but
returned to their hard hunks in the
barracks, and slept soundly. This was
q humorous illustration Of fact about
the human body which may manifest
itself in more tragic way.
On their way South from Federal
prison some Southern officers met a
friend. who invited them to dinner at
the best hotel in the city. They had
had only Goldfish balls and stale bread
for nineteen months, and, like half
famished children, could hardly wait
politely for the dinner.
At last it came-a steaming roast
baked sweet potatoes, pone bread, cook
ed southern style to order, white
potatoes. fresh butter, and after that
real coffee-a feast for an epicure.
After the blessing how they did pitch
into the food. But alas. One after
another lost his appetite promptly.
When they had eaten the amount they
had been accustomed to, they could
eat no more. Their jaded stomachs
signaled and forbade. Slowly and sad
" they filed out, leaving all the good
things to eat To bis dying day no one
of the veterans ever forgot the dis
appointment in not being able to eat
more than he wanted. The lost m al
was a regret forever.

Free Government Seeds.

The agricultural papers of the coun-
try have for years shown up the abuse
of the annual congressional seed dis
tribution. Last year the appropriation
was 100000, and over 100000 pack
ages of seed We're distributed. The
postage on these seeds if paid by indi,
vidusls would cost about a half million
dollars. and the labor. printing and
other expenses would bring it up tt
over a million. The seeds usually are
of poor quality and go for the most
part to sections of the country where
they are not acclimated. to curry pc.
litical favors. 1t is an abuse that
should Immediately be discontinued
