Pure Food Officials
Raid UnSanitary
Meat Markets

Vermiion, Jan. Backing dray
up to the door Of butcher shop III
EdgemOnt Wednesday, Inspector
w. M. Cox loaded onto the wagon
the following foodstuffs, which
were hauled to the city dump and
destroyed: "a dressed chicken, IL
packages of dried berries. 25 pounds
of cOrDmeal, 30 pounds Of spices,
6 pounds of chesse and 10 pounds
Of a preparation used for embalm-
ing meats. Mice and rats overrun
the butchers establishment, which
was in filthy condition, and they
had left evidence OF their depreda-
tions throughout the shop. The
butcher plead with the inspector
that he be not prosecuted and the
inspector after destroying the goods
did not leave the place until hn had
the butcher and lis helper hard at
work scrubbing the shop from top
to bottom. On the same day Mr..
Cox destroyed kit Of fish in Il
restaurant in Edgemout and saw n
drayman employed to remove rub
bish and dirt from the rear Of the
place :
at the same time in the north
part of the state Inspector Prest-
wick was not idle but found time
to destroy case of 81 l-2 pounds
of evaporated peaches in grocery
at Selby. These had become wormy.
The same inspector has destroyed
large quantities OF similarly unfit
food in other towns III the north
part of the state recently.
These are only examples of a
part of the large amount of work
which inspectors for the State Food
and Drug Department are doing.
In spite of the unusally heavy
shipments Of gasoline and kerosine
into the state which require most
of the time of the inspectors for
inspection. yet they have done a
great deal OF work in hotel and
public binding inspection. Com.
missioner Frary follows up the
inspection with letters and as a
result Of the work many changes
for the better are being wrought
throughout the state.

Against Un-
cooked And Raw
Pork

While American people as u rule
prefer cooked pork which is whole-
some there are many who unknow-
ingly or deliberately consume pork
i'll Ill uncooked condition, either
in the form OF raw ham or smoked
sausages. In many districts, par
ticularly in sections with large for
eign populations, a great deal of
pork is made privately or CONNER
cially into such products for home
use or for sale.
Great risk always attends the use
Of raw or undercooked pork. The
illness which may result from eat
ing raw pork, known as trichinosis,
is caused by parasite or q worm,
microscopic in size, which occurs
in the flesh or hogs. There is no
known effective method of treating
the disease. The patient dies or
RECEIVERS apparently irrespective of
the nature OF the treatment.
Many who do not die have their
health impaired.
Statistics based on microscopic
inspection Of over 10000 hogs
during period of nine years in
this country have shown that l.4l
per cent of the hogs were infested
with live trichin@. This fact alone
makes it important that everyone
who eats pork should for the pro-
lection Of health eat it only whau
thoroughly xUake1-
