Bureau of Animal Industry
Watching Changes.

A study of the changes taking place in
meat while in cold storage, for the
purpose of deciding upon the best con-
ditions of storage, and of ascertaining
whether or not meat becomes unwhole-
some after being in storage for a long
time, will be made by the Bureau of Ami
NAL Industry OF the Department of Ag-
riCulture during the ensuing fiscal year
according to the annual report of DR.. A
ID. Melvin, which was made public yes
terday
The bureau will also make study OF
the egg-breaking and egg-packing indus
tries. The work has already been start
cd by a committee, consisting of the
chiefs of the pathological. animal hus-
bandry, and biochemIc divisions. The
committee will receive the cooperation
OF similar committee in the Bureau or
Chemistry.
The report states that during the past
year considerable work has been done in
building, fencing, and equipping the new
experimental farm at Beltsville, Md. 1t
contains about AS acres, and is located
about thirteen miles from Washington.
The farm was purchased for the pur-
pose of experimental work in animal
husbandry and dairying. For several
years it had been considered very de-
sirable to separate work of this nature
from the work relating to infectious
diseases, as carried on at the experiment
tai station at Bethesda, Md.
