inspection at the slaughter house
because here diseases could be de-
tected in the live animal or by the
examination of the disease which
carcass was offered for sale. He
said about two per cent of the car
casses inspected were found diseased
with tuberculosis, triepinaY tape worm
or hog cholera and that 20 per cent
of these cases occurred in dairy stock,
the western beef cattle being less Ii
able to infection. He said the federal
system of inspection now, after %
years of experience, was highly eff
cient and doing thorough and vaiu-
able work. He then outlined a system
of municipal inspection having to do
with the regulation, location and con-
struction of slaughter houses and the
administration OF local inspection
service. He strongly advocated the
idea of each city maintaining a CEN
trail laboratory where all Strengthening
could be done and where there could
be sanitary conditions and thorough
inspection of the meat. He gave as
examples such plants which are main
tanned in Paris Texas, Nashville,
Tenn, and Little Rock, Ark. Such
a central slaughter house he said
could be financed by bonding and the
accumulation in a sinking fund
then the revenue from by product of
the rendering department and the
When a town was not large enough
to warrant the building of such
plant he recommended inspection by
a veterinary at the slaughter house
at the time of killing and under no
circumstances should the inspector
receive his fee direct from the butch
er for obvious reasons. He stated
that the Bureau stood ready at all
times to furnish specifications and
plans to any city considering the
building of a central laboratory in any
town wishing information or advice
in regard to inspection Of meat or the
regulations to be enforced.

Memorial Site Dedicated.
Between three and four hundred
people, including the governor of
Vermont and other distinguished per-
sons from out of the state, took in
an all days trip on the steamer
Chateaugay last Thursday, which
was chartered for the purpose, to at
tend the outing of the Lake Cham
plain Association at Fort Frederic.
1t was $50 years ago that the British
engineers began work on the historic
Fort Amherst, so it was very oppor-
tune that the Lake Champlain AS
ISOLATION should take its first outing
on that day. A site for the memorial
monument to Samuel de Champlai
was there dedicated, with appro-
pirate ceremonies by Governor G. H.
Prouty. At the ruins of Fort Freder-
ic, which were recently presented to
the state of New York by Witherbee
Sherman & Co., of Port Henry. N. Y,
NJ. F. Barnes, of Chimney Point, gave
a very brief resume of the history of
Fort Frederic and Fort Amherst.
Luncheon was afterward served at the
nearby pavilion. President Thomas
of Midllebury College and Congress-
man Frank Plumley of Mortified
made short addresses, Governor
Prouty presiding, and the governor
afterward dedicated a site for the
Champlaih Memorial.

ing to get some hot knocks
in congress. When seen by
a representative of this news
paper Senator Gore of Okla
homa said:
Teddy should give Taft
absent treatment. The peo-
pie are entitled to know, In
spite of rules, who is stealing
the watermelons. If rumor
speak truth, the war against
progress and the progressives
is to be fought under a black
flag Obedience or the bow
string was the sultan's de-
cree. Those who bow the
knee are to enjoy the smiles
of favor. Those who stand
erect are to incur the frown
of offended majesty Is free
thought to be tethered and
free speech to be silenced?
Must the sworn representa-
tives of the people barter
principle for patronage and
patriotism for pie? Must they
surrender the convictions OF
a lifetime for the high riv-
ilege of appointing a fourth
class postmaster at Skedunk
or a minister plenipotentiary
to the court of Dahomy?
