nicipal Meat Inspection. Among the speakers
were Hon. w. R. Pattangall, and Clement MUIR
ply. who responded to the toast of The Press.
DR.. West said, in in part:
The importance of the municipal inspection
of meat is so great that it hardly needs to be
stated before scientific body. One half of all
the meat consumed in the United States is
without inspection. 1t has been proven con-
clusively that tuberculosis in particular and
many other diseases in general are transmits
sible from animals to man. One in seven of
all deaths in the human family are due to
tuberculosis. Eight per cent of the dairy cows
examined by the bureau of animal industry
were proven to be tubercular. The public is
absolutely unable to judge of the quality of
meats. Laymen are absolutely unfit for meat
inspectors, only qualified veterinarians are able
to properly inspect meats.
