TESTS MEAT FOR SWEETNESS
Olfactory Nerves Of the "Ham smeli-
or" Must Be Always at Their
keenest.

To the long list of unusual occnna-
tions by which men live, there must be
added TINT of the "ham smeller" In a
packing house. His duty Is to inspect
meat products and Judge of their
soundness.
The ham smeller's only tools are a
long steel trler and his nose. He
stands In barrel to keep his clothes
from being soiled by the dripping
brine, and the hams are brought TO
him by workmen A ham Is laid be-
fore him. and he plunges his sharp
pointed trier into 1t, wlthdraws 1t and
passes II swiftly beneath his pose. The
trier always goes down to the knuckle
Joint.
In testing meat In that manner the
man with the trier judges by the
slightest shade of difference between
the smell of one piece of meat and
another The smell of the meat Is al
most universally sweet. and that Is
what he smells; the slightest faint or
deviation from the sweet smell Is
therefore appreclable. 1t Is not the
degree Of faint that he expects to find,
but the slightest odor that is not
sweet.
When he detects an odor he throws
the meat aside, and If 1t Is not I'M
wholesome, 1t Is sold as rejected"
meat. but II 1t is tainted 1t goes to the
rendering tank. The ham tester smells
meat from o'clock in the morning
until 8 at night and his sense must
never become jaded or lnexact. or his
usefulness would be at an end.
Ham testing Is not pursuit dan
gerous to the health, as tea testing Is
supposed to be, but the ham smeller
with cold In his head is for the time
being like piano player who has lost
his arms in railway wreck.
