Dr., Van Es Gave Talk At Surrey That
viii Be Of Particular Interest To
City Dads Who Are Considering 4
Municipal Slaughter House.
(By J. w. Smith)

The lecture at the Surrey school
house Saturday night was very In
structive. DR. Van Es chose to call
the subject of his discourse Meat
Hygiene rather than Meat Inspection,
because in the inspection of meat
the least attention is paid to the
meat itself. OF necessity more at,
tention must be paid to the health
Of animals alive, the place in which
the Strengthening Is done, and the
person who does the butchering than
to the meat itself.
Meat cannot be intelligently Judged
by the ordinary consumer. for sore-
thing dangerous about it could easily
pass unnoticed while something
which the consumer would readily
notice would probably not be danger
GUS at all.
Among the infectious diseases DR..
Van Es thought tuberculosis was the
most dreaded. There is not as much
danger from this source as Is CON-
monty SUPPOSED. In an inspected
meat supply there is no danger at
alt. An animal slightly affected with
tuberculosis would probably escape
detection when given the ordinary
examination alive. IN this connection
It might be we'll to speak OF the
examination given dairy herds OF
which the doctor spoke later. This
test Is made by means Of serum
infected into the blood Of the cows.
In testing live animals in this way
It is found that those even slightly
affected react. On examination after

to the state veterarian, DR.. W. l..
Crewe, at Devils Lake between the

March and test will be made free Of

upon the owner of the cattle is that
he will deliver affected cattle to the
state to be disposed Of. The loss is
not total for condemned cattle. The
state pays SIS apiece for two-year

$50 apiece for pure bred cows CON

state veterinarian he had an arrange
ment with the management at the
South st. Paul stock yards to notify
him whenever any tuberculosis hogs

shipper Tuberculosis hogs usually
become affected from CATTLE" said
the doctor.
When notice was received from the
stockyards that a certain shipper had
brought in affected hogs the shipper
was at once notified by the state
veterinarian and he was in a position
to defend himself against the dis
ease.

Perhaps the most difficult prob.
lem in small slamghterhouse is the

ORDINANCE IS
FINALLY PASSED
BYC|TY COUNCIL
IT PROVIDES FOR THE PAVING
OF ELEVEN BLOCKS IN
BUSINESS SECTION.
Every Member of Council Voted for
the Measure When 1t Came Up for
Final Action Last Nisht-other
Matters Disposed OF.

The city council met in recessed
session last night, having adjourned
over from the last regular meeting,
10 take up and consider the paving
ordinance which has been pending in
council for several weeks.
The regular order of business was
taken up, however, and several other
matters were handled Among others
came protest from Major c.. Down
ing against the paving of Gloucester
street from Newcastle to Bay.
The report of council as a whole
On the paving matter, providing for
the work, was then submitted and
it "as unanimously adopted. A re-
port was also received from the di-
rector of public works, recommending
that the use Of vitrified brick for paw
ing purposes, it being comparatively
cheaper and more substantial than
any other material A resolution by
Alderman Leo was referred to the
public works committee condemning
the Insightly wooden frame building
owned by the Lambright estate and
located on Newcastle street, near the
corner of Howe.
The paving ordinance as amended
to meet the conditions of the commit
tee of the whole, was placed on it's
second and third reading and was
unanimously passed. Thus with a
splendid unanimity council passed the
largest paving ordinance in the his
tory of the city, going squarely on
record for a new era of municipal de-
velooment in Brunswick.
The council, as a committee of the
whole, had previously considered the
subject, having agreed to eliminate
from the original ordinance the paw
ing Of Oglethorpe from Mansfield to
F, Grant, from Mansfield to F, and
Gloucester, from Newcastle to Bay.
The ordinance was passed without a
dissenting vote and covers eleven city
blocks as follows: Four, on Monk
from Newcastle to the riverfront;
three on F from Bay to Newcastle;
three on Gloucester from Newcastle
to Union.
The F street work from Newcastle
to the Union depot and the Gloucester
street project from Newcastle to I'm
ion were provided for in previous or
dinances, but has never been done,
but will be included in the work spe-
ci1cally provided for in the ordinance
passed last night. The disposition
of the matter will, of course, meet
with the approval of the people gem

Americans Leave Mexico.

Laredo, Tex, March About
seventy-five Americans, mostly women
and children, passed through here To-
dan from Mexico enroute north. Some
of chem expressed alarm over the
Mexican situation, but others said
their only reason for leaving was that
their husbands forced them to go.
There is an unconfirmed report here
that twenty American families will
leave Monterey today, bound for the
United States.
The refugees seen today said that
in the cities generally good order pre-
walls, but that in the country, ranches
and very small villages are being at
tackled.
Today's rush of Americans home
ward is in part due to President Taft S
warning of Saturday, although there
has hardly been time for many Amer
leans to reach here yet. The exodus
was fairly heavy before the presi-

families seem to be directly connected
with the presidents circular.
