principle by the departments special
lists that the consumer is himself re-
sponsible for the proper preparation
of fresh pork and pork products that
are usually cooked before eating, but
that the manufacturer is under obll-
cations to make sure that pork prod
ucts sold as cooked products are prop
erly cooked, or. If of kind custom

sure that the products are free from

In the federal meat inspection regu-

products cooked in establishments an

cOrdance with methods approved by
the bureau of ANIMAL industry.
Most of the departments expert

operation with certain meat packing
establishments in Chicago. The in
vestigators selected the methods Of
preparing pork without cooking that
seemed likely to be efficacious in de-
stroying trichinae and at the same
time suited to practical requirements
of manufacture. Several new meth
DDS were devised.
The investigation shows that pork
products of the kinds customarily
eaten without cooking may be reR-

trichinosis is concerned, but that II
Is necessary to follow a special curing
process adapted to each. Salt Is an
essential In most of the processes.
Sausages Of moderate size have
been rendered harmless by mixing moi
less than three and one-third pounds
Of salt with every hundredweight OF
meat, followed by preliminary curing
and then by drying. After the salt
has been introduced the sausage'
must be dried at least 20 days In 9

allowed for preliminary curing, which
may be curtailed, provided the time II

In the case of pepproni, which ar
sausages stuffed in long. narrow, thiI
castings, 1t was found feasible to re
duce the curing period to 20 days, o
which at least Is days must be give
