have been put in where fresh fish will
be kept every day
The counters are all of glass with
an ice box below, that the Gus
toner may view the meats without
having to handle them so often.
Each butcher has a galvanized hone
box in which he throws his bones and
scraps This does away with the old
method of wooden boxes formerly used
under the blocks and counters which
dispenses with all the dirt and grease.
All the cases have row of electric
! lights installed in. them lighting up
the meats so the buyer can see what
he is purchasing.
The fixtures are painted white, and
the counters, blocks and cases are so
arranged that no dirt can collect in
the corners and under cases. Mr.. Ber-
endt is a pioneer in store sanitation
here.
Mr.. Berendt is the first Hammond
man to start this sanitary movement
and 1T is not known how many 9TH
