Washington, D. c., Sept. 24.-The
magnitude of the government meat in
spection service is shown by the fol-
lowing figures covering the past sew
en- years, the period during which the
present law has been in effect. In this
period more than 377,000,000 animals
were inspected at slaughter, of which
100000 carcasses and 4,750,000 parts
of carcasses were condemned. The re-
inspection of meat and meat food prod
ucts in their various preparations
amount to A billion pounds, IF
which there were condemned on rein
spection 148,OOO,O0O pounds. There
were certified for export billion
pounds.
Federal inspection is maintained 1T
1872 slaughtering and packing estab-
lishments, which number includes
practically every establishment of i'm
portance in the country. These estao-
lishments are distributed in 227 towns
and cities. The force necessary ID
conduct inspection is comprised of g.
400 veterinary inspectors and assist
ants.
The quickness and certainty wita
V hich the government inspectors sta
toned in packing houses detect tuber-
culosis and other diseases in animals
and carcasses examined by them at the
time of slaughter is an interesting ex-
ample of developed experiences. Each
veterinary inspector is well grounded
in the fundamental knowledge of ami
NAL diseases and when entering the
service is taken in hand by an expert
enced inspector for careful instruction
in his duties
In the large packing establishments
the post norton inspection work is so
divided and systematized that each
carcass must pass the scrutiny of sew
eral inspectors, each of whom gives his
entire attention to examining certa n
particular parts. Under this system
the inspectors vision and sense or
touch become so highly trained that
