meat consumed in this country is

a similarly trained force working I'M

supervisors in the vicinity Of Chicago
report to DR.. W. N. Neill, with Off
ces at U. S. Yards.
These inspectors are trained VET

Meat which passes Government
inspection is not only free from dis
ease and faint, but slaughtered under
modern conditions Of cleanliness. All
instruments used in dressing are ster
ilized and the men employed in this
work wear clean washable aprons and
frocks.
Preparing meat for eonsumntion
Is a responsible undertaking requir-
ing minute supervision of labor. The
public may rest assured that in the
big U. S. Government inspected
plants which prepare a large part OF
the country. every portion of the work
Is done under modern hygenic condi-
tons" The American housewife will
get her share of U. S. Government
protection only by demanding inspect
ed meats. See that the Government
inspection Inscription is on every can
OF meat you purchase as well as on
the commercial cuts Of fresh meat.
