All farmers and others who raise or
handle cattle, sheep, hogs, or goats which
are marketed for food purposes should know
something of the general rules under which
the department conducts the inspection of
animals to be slaughtered.
When such animals are forwarded to
public stockyards or to establishments
where Federal meat inspection is maintained
they are inspected alive. This inspection is
known as the ante-mortem inspection and is
done in the stockyards or in the pens of the
establishment. When conducted in the
public stockyards the ante-mortem inspec
ton is usually made at the scales when the
animals are weighed. The chief require
ments for the disposal of animals upon this
inspection are as follows: Those animals
which do not plainly show, but are suspected
of being affected with, any disease or con
dition which may cause condemnation in
whole or in part at the time of slaughter are
marked with serially -numbered metal tag
which bears the legend ~. S. Suspect"

poets are held apart and slaughtered sepa-

further examination and taking of tempera-
ture. Immature animals offered for ante
norton inspection at any of the places speci-
fed in the regulation are required to be
condemned outright; likewise all animals
showing symptoms Of rabies, tetanus milk
fever, or railroad sickness.
Besides this ante-mortem inspection, the
carcasses are thoroughly inspected at the
time of and after slaughter, and the meat
and products are also inspected in the vari-
Gus stages and processes of preparation.
The losses caused through the condemna-
ton of animals which are unfit for food af-
fects directly or indirectly the price which
the producer receives for his live stock The
purchasers of animals for slaughter not in
frequently trace diseased shipments back to
their origin where disease is harbored, and
thereafter decline to take animals from in
fected farms and localities except under an
arrangement which will insure them against
loss. 1t therefore behooves the producer to
use every practicable means to keep his
herds and focks free from disease and to re-
frain from forwarding diseased or suspicious
animals to market.

CHANGE POST OFFICE
DEPARTMENTS TODAY
Business Now Under Two Heads:
Parcel Post Insurance
in Effect

Bringing all the work of the local
Post Office under two departments
in accordance with the reorganization
plans made recently by Postmaster
General Burleson. the divisions Of
finance and mails were formally In
stalled this morning.
Postmaster Sites has been gradu-
ally working toward this system which
is used in many of the large cities of
the country, for. the past several
months, consequently there was little
noticeable difference when the work
was transferred. All the details OF
the new system have not yet been in
stalled owing to the limited facilities
at the temporary headquarters. Sew
eral minor details have not been
agreed upon by Postmaster Sites and
the department so that 1t will be
some weeks before all the features
of the two divisions are working.
The office of assistant postmaster is
abolished with the transference of
Samuel w. Fleming to chief of the
division of finance without change in
salary. In the mailing division three
clerks receive advances in salary as
follows. e. H. Anderson and Harry
B. Speas from sixth grade clerks at
$1,000 to assistant superintendents Of
mails at $1,000; J. E. Lenig, clerk of
the sixth grade to foreman of mails
at $1,000. Other changes will be
made later. One of the features of
the new plan is that clerks can be
called by the chief of either division
to some other work without regard to
regular assignments. When the force
moves back into the Federal building,
the superintendent of malls will be
placed in the former assistant post
masters office at the end of the main
corridor, where he will receive COM
plants and settle other business mat
ters.
Another change at the Post Office
to-day was the installation of parcel
post insurance. Under the old system
it was impossible to trace parcel post
matter. Now the hour of sending is
recorded and provision made to trace
the package in case of necessity.
