DANGER Of EATING PORK
NOT SUFFICIENTLY COOKED

Eat no pork or pork products un-
less they are cooked if you would
be certain of avoiding trichinosis
This is warning issued by the Bu-
reau of Animal Industry Of the Uni
ted States Department of Agriculture
especially to those who are in the
habit of eating raw ham or special
forms of sausage containing raw
pork and made to be eaten uncooked.
The records show that the number
Of cases of trichinosis-a serious,
painful, and often fatal disease re-
sulting from richinae-increase
during the holidays, partly because
Of hog-killing time and partly be-
cause farmers frequently make up
special forms of sausage which are
eaten without cooking.
To avoid trichinosis no form of
pork in the raw state, including
dried or smoked sausages and hams,
should be eaten. All pork used as
food should be cooked thoroughly, as
trichinae, the minute organisms
which cause this deadly disease, die
and therefore become harmless when
subjected to a temperature of 40
F. or higher. The fact that these
organisms may remain alive and ac-
tive in uncooked pork makes the lat
ter, says department meat special
lists, menace to life and health
wherever it is eaten.
Everyone should remember this
simple rule Of food hygiene: Cook
pork we'll. A practical rule is to
cook pork until it has lost it's red
color througout all portions, or if
trace of this color is still present,
at least until the fluids of the meat
have become more or less jellied.
The Federal meat inspectors do
not inspect pork or pork products
to determine the presence or absence
of the organisms causing trichinosis,
as even careful microscopic examina-
ton is unreliable. In inspected es-
Establishments the inspectors do, how
ever, require that pork which is to
be made into products to be eaten
raw shall be heated sufficiently or
subjected for considerable periods to
extreme cold to destroy the harmful
organisms. This requirement does
not reach all pork products made to
be eaten raw, since the Federal Gov
eminent only inspects establish
ments preparing products to be ship
ped in interstate commerce.
1t should be noted that the special
treatment required by the Bureau of
Animal Industry to be given to pork
products meant to be eaten raw
must be interpreted as an indorse-
ment Of such dietetic practices. The
measures are taken primarily to re-
duce the risks taken by persons who
ignorantly, carelessly, or willfully
eat such products. 1t remains that
the safest plan is to eat no pork
products of any kind raw.

Mr.. lngersoll is well-known men,
Der of the Associated Advertising
Clubs of the World, having been
president of the National advertising
section for two or three years. MIR.
1ngersoll has message which
should be invaluable to any merchant
who wishes to make the very most

E. B: Moon, for several years man.
ager of general store in Lakeville,
Indiana, but now director of the de-
partment of community development
and trade betterment of the Far
mers' Review, Chicago, will also
speak
Mr.. Moon is one of the men who
has demonstrated without a doubt
that the local store can serve COM
| munity much better and more econ
omically than can department store
located in large city. Mr.. Moon
has proved that the cost of doing
business in a local store under pro-
per management is less than the
cost of selling on the part of the
mail-order house; therefore, it can
sell as economically. He also belle
yes that live general store by it's
influence in building up community
is distinct asset not only to the
village but to the surrounding agri-
cultural community. Mr.. Moon has
in charge a store located ten miles
from large city where there are
several large department stores. He
demonstrated that by careful buying
and efficient management he could
not only sell cheaper than the big
department stores, because his ex
penses were lower, but that he coulc
also serve his patrons better. Hi:
efforts resulted in increasing the
business of a small country store
from $4,000 to $4,000 a year. HI
will explain to the merchants of tn,
short course some of the methods
which made his organization so sue
cessful. He will also give talk 81

Bad Eggs Must Not Be Sold.

Notice has been served by state and
federal officials on all producers and
dealers in eggs that all the laws reg
ulating the production and sale of this
food will be strictly enforced this sum-
mer throughout the state.
Fred l.. Woodwork, state food and
dairy commissioner. will cooperate
with the federal authorities in enforc-
ing the federal law, which provides
that no case may be placed on sale
that contains more than Is decayed
eggs.
THE most important phase of the
entire situation is the disposal of rot
ten eggs" said Mr.. Woodwork. I'm
the past farmers have sold rotten
eggs to the dealers, who have broken
them all into one mass and sold them
, to bakers for use in wholesale baking
operations after treatment with de-
odorants. 4
This practice must be stopped.
The only use for these rotten eggs
should be in certain tanning processes.
All farmers and egg dealers must be
warned that the laws will be strictly
enforced this year as they never have
been before"

CHAPTER IV-continued.

She refused to hear word more
in those circumstances. "I'm coming
straight down." she said, land We'll go
somewhere for lunch. Don't you real
ize that we can't talk about 1t like
this? OF course you wouldn't, but it's
So"
Over the lunch-table she got as de-
tailed an account of the affair as Rod
ney, in his somnambulistic condition,
was able to give her, and she passed
1t on to Martin that evening as they
drove across to the North side for
dinner.
"Well, that all sounds exactly like
Rodney" he commented. II hope
you'll like the girl!
''That isn't what hope" said Fred
erica. AT least 1t isn't what I'm most
concerned about. hope I can make
her like me. Roddy's the only brother
I've got In the world, and I'm not go
ing to lose him If can help it. That's
what will happen If she doesn't like
me-"
AS II happened, though, she forgot
all about her resolution almost with
her first look at Rose. Rodney's at
tempts at description of her had been
well-meaning; but what he had pre-
pared his sister for, unconsciously
of course, in his emphasis on one or
two phases of their first acquaintance,
had been sort of slatternly Amazon.
But the effect Of this was, really, very
happy; because when perfectly pre-
sentably clad, well-bred, admirably
poised young girl came into the room
and greeted her neither shyly nor
eagerly, nor with any affectation of
ease, a girl who didn't try to pretend
1t wasn't critical moment for her,
but was game enough to meet 1t with
out any evidences of panic--when
Frederick realized that this was the
Rose whom Rodney had been telling
her about, she fell in love with her on
the spot.
Amazingly, as she watched the girl
and heard her talk, she found she was
considering, not Roses availability as
a wife for Rodney, but Rodney's as a
husband for her. 1t was this, perhaps,
that led her to say, at the end Of her
leave-taking: "Roddy has been such
a wonderful brother, always, to me,
that I suspect you'll find him. some
times, being a brother to you. Don't
let 1t hurt you II that happens"
