"In the fall of 1905. Mr.. c. J. Tress
Ter. attorney for Swift & Company
called at the office and stated that
Swift & Co. had eliminated boracit
acid and color from meat products
FOR SALE IN KENTUCKY, and thai
there would be no further shipments
containing these substances into the
state'
The report continues:
"The packing houses need inspection
to control authorizations which thu
packer is permitted, without restrain
| to add to meat products, just as mucl
as the inspection which the Fedora
| Government conducts with reference t.
the physiological whOlesOmeness of thu
animal. While boraclc acid into meats
OF otherwise superior quality, the chic
reason for using antiseptics, artificial
colors and other adulteranta Is to dis
guise deficiencies, or Its method o
preservation, and when these adulter
ations are restricted the result mus
be higher standard In the product t
be packed, better methods Of packing
and preservation and more whole
some and perfect food"
"Recent investigations have undoubt
edly shown that the federal inspeC
ton over the physiological condition O
packing house meats Is not thorough
and that some of the animal PROD

AND PASSED TO CONSUMERS UN

antiseptic and the anlllne dye are tn
chief means by which the consumer |
deceived into believing that this In
, ferior or condemned meat Is pure an
wholesome"
