OYSTERS ARE IN : :
BAD REPU1E NOW

A warning against the use of oysters
raw is given by the Chicago health de-
partment in its weekly bulletin issued
yesterday. While it is admitted that
oysters are becoming better in quality,
still there is considera BILE danger in
eating raw oysters unless they have
been inspected carefully when pur-
chased
The bulletin says that oysters in
which pieces of ice are floating should
not be purchased. Not only does the
melted ice add to the bulk and also the
dealers profit. but it may be the source
of infection, even If the oysters them
selves are wholesome
Investigation by the government has
shown that many growers still float
oysters in water polluted by sewage
They are gathered in many cases by
unclean men using unclean methods
