Labelling carcasses.
The provision in regard to labelling
| carcasses which are found diseased
and which have been condemned, are
very complete. A system of tags

make it impossible for any carcass
which has once been tagged by a de-
partment employe to escape the Wig
lance Of the inspectors.
Running through the regulations is
a carefully prepared scheme which
will effectually prevent the entrance
into sausage, curing, canning and 9TH
er chopped meat establishments Of

ed and passed by federal inspectors at
