FOOD SAFEGUARD

The insepction of fresh beef for army consumption is receiving com- prehensive attention by .he :pspec- tion branch of the Subsistence Divi- sion of the army. New possibilities of food inferiorities daily are being uncovered, resulting in the appli- cation of stringent preventive meth ods designed to check these possi- bilities before corrective steps ac- tually become necessary.
 The army consumes about 2,O0O,- 900 pounds per day of fresh beef. This necessitates the slaughter daily of 4,000 cattle. Official inspectors scrutinize every part of this supply from the time it comes on the hoof to the abbatoir until it vanishes the mess tin of the soldier.
 Inspection begins at the stock yards, where the living animals un- dergo the examination of an official for any evidences of physical de- feet which might be difficult of de- lection later. Where there is doubt the questionable animals are sepa-

CONQUER THE HABIT

If we are slaves of our habits, we are willing to sacrifice a great deal to our masters. We are will ing to let the women and children of France and the men who are fight ing for us, go hungry rather than break the bonds of our habits. We are willing to go on eating bread rather than treat our weil-estab- lished habit unkindly We would rather satisfy our customary ob- servance of toast for breakfast, bread for lunch, hot rolls for dinner than contribute the ammunition of wheat to our army and our asso- ciates in this war.
 If we care nothing at all for the superficial habits of our peace time customs and everything for the win ming of this war, then we are go- Ing Io make every e11OrC or Wnlcn our bodies and our minds are cap able to help win it. We are going to face the issue with honesty. We are going to consider our habits the least precious of all the things which we will sacrifice in our great emer- gency. We are going to look at the true value of things. We are go- ing to put victory above the joy

rated for closer examination. Where there is certainty of defect the ami nal is rejected as unfit for food supply.
 Next comes a rigid examination of the carcass. Only when found "sound, healthful, and wholesome is the meat passed as acceptable for food and duly branded with non poisonous vegetable ink "United States Inspected and Passed" The unfit carcasses are destroyed.
 Fresh meats thus indorsed go for ward in regular shipments, but those which are to undergo curing, can ming, or manufacture into sausages, lard, oleomargarine, etc., are sub jected to reinspections at each step. For these there is final inspection just previous to their dispatch for army use. Samples are regularly collected for chemical analysis in the Government laboratories.
 When the meats arrive at the army stations they are again in spected either by inspectors of the Bureau of Animal Industry of by veterinarian officers of the army. They must also obtain the approval of the officer of the quartermaster corps receiving them. And they undergo their final test when the soldiers immediate organization commander looks them over before he permits them to be served to his men.
