Of HI SAFE
Sixty Per Cent Killed Under Federal
inspection.
Hundred Million Meat Animals Slaughtered
Each Year in United States
?Tuberculosis Is Chief Cause
of Condemnation.
Washington.?More than 58,000,000
meat animals were slaughtered in establishments
under federal inspection
during the fiscal year ending June 30,
1915. Since approximately from 58 to
ftO r.or rent rvf tho animala trill ori it?
the country are slaughtered in establishments
where federal inspection is
maintained, it appears that about 100,000,000
meat animals are now being
killed each year in the United States.
Of the animals subjected to federal
inspection, 299,958 were condemned as
unfit for human use, and 644,688 were
condemned in part. Thus a litle#more
than 1 per cent of all the animals
inspected were condemned either in
whole or in part. These figures include
only cattle, calves, sheep, goats
and swine.
Tuberculosis was the chief cause of
the condemnations^ More than 32.644
carcasses of cattle and 66,000 carcasses
of swine were entirely rejected
on account of this disease, and in addition,
parts of 48,000 cattle and 40,000
swine. Hog cholera was responsible
for the next largest loss, nearly 102,000
swine being condemned entirely on
this account.
The annual appropriation for the federal
meat inspection service is now
about $3,375,000, so that the cost to the
people would be between 5 and 6 cents
per animal and carcasses. In addition,
however, great quantities of the meat
and products are re-inspected. In this
item there was a very considerable increase
during the last fiscal year, the
re-inspection resulting in the condemnation
of a total of nearly 19,000,000
pounds of products of one kind or
another. Furthermore 245,000,000
nrmnHc nf imnnrtod mpflt AT nrr>d
ucts were inspected, and more than
2,000,000 pounds condemned or refused
entry.
In the course of its work, the bureau
of animal industry, which is in
charge of the meat inspection service,
has discovered a new method of destroying
trichinae in pork, which is
an additional safeguard to human
health. Refrigeration at a temperature
of 5 degrees, F., or lower, for a
period of 20 days, will destroy these
parasites which occasionally give rise
in human beings to the serious disease
known as trichinosis. Hitherto
the only known safeguard against this
disease has been thorough cooking of
all pork and pork products, and those
persons who neglect this precaution
have always been more or less exposed
to the danger. Unless pork is known
to have been subjected to refrigeration
as above indicated, it should be thoroughly
cooked. The microscopic examination
of pork for the detection of
trichinae has been abandoned as the
usual methods have proved inefficient.
In this connection it is interesting to
note that more swine were slaughtered
in the past year in establishments under
federal inspection than ever before.
A total of 36,247,953 were inspected
at the time of slaughter, and
approximately -35,900,000 passed for
food.

Twenty-One Years, Offered
for Probate.
! Denver.?For the first time in the
history of the Denver county court
the will of a man of whose death there
is no record has been lodged with
the clerk of the court. It may become
necessary to have the maker,
George T. Sheets, declared legally
j dead before the instrument is offered i
for probate.
Sheets, a contractor, made the will;
in 1893. He was then seventy-two j
years old. A year later he disap- <
near Ad. The family did not know of
the existence of the will' until a few :
days ago, when Attorney Edwin Parke
discovered the document in his safe. \
Parke turned it over to the clerk of
the court.

demand for chemical engineers has;
grown so rapidly that the companies j
are finding it difficult to fill the many
places that are now open.
Indication of this was given at Co-;
lumbia university when Dean Fred- j
erick A. Goetze of the graduate en- j
gineering school reported that he had
received a call from a mining company
for several chemical engineers
familiar with the iron and steel inI
dustry, but that he has been unable
! to find any of the recent graduates
I who were not already well placed.

When the little girl was missed, her

closer examination disclosed her body

SOME IDEA OF WEATHER
CONDITIONS IN SERBIA
Contending Armies of Europe Are
Battling in a Region of Intense
Cold.
"Serbian winters are severe, and!
cheerless, with dull skies, and sharp,f
damp winds scouring the valley,
while intense cold settles upon the
exposed uplands," says a bulletin issued
by the National Geographic society.
"In the lowlands adjacent to

er, but the ground through many1
days is spongy with dampness. In,
the mountainous districts, however,
the cold is as bitter as that which
deadens the Russian plains "during1
January and February, and most of
(Serbia is included in the mountainous
area. The north central section,
in the Danube valley, the j
-1 :
northwest section, in tnc oavc v?u-j
ley. and a belt, northwest, through;
the heart of the country, tlie Mo-;
rava valley, together, constitute the'
sum total of the important lowland
areas of Serbia. In the northern
lowlands, the winters are like those
of central Germany, while in the'
A Foray a vallcv the cold is greater.
"Cpiand Servia has only two
clearly defined seasons?winter and
summer/ There are scarcely any
transition periods between the cold j
and the heat. Sunfmer lasts between
May and October, which latter!
month is vvet and chilly. The chill
wetness lasts sometimes well into
November. Mists hover over the i
valleys until toward noon, and con-1
geal on the mountain sides. Going!

slush, or mud, but an maeiermmaic
combination of ill three, supported
over the ground in a porous coating
by a ribwork of frozen dew. The
snowfall is considerable, and gen-j
erally covers the hills throughout j
I
the winter.

stories about buying their cream in
chunks and carrying it one their
wanderings wrapped in a piece of
paper, and of handling fresh eggs
without the shells as successfully as
though these had been hard boiled.
Winters in the highlands of Serbia
are as strenuous as those of Russia.
"The lines of the contending armies
are now drawn up through the
areas visited by the coldest winter,
which are found in the southern
central parts of the kingdom. Here
in the southern and central mountains,
despite the fact that Serbia'climate
is generally described as being
mild, winter reigns with a stern
arctic sway. Among the hardiest
peasants in the Balkans, people inured
to exposure, labor and all
manner of difficulties, are bred in
these cold uplands, and it is their
homes which are now coming within
the battle zones."

A Good Sermon. '
A fine sermon was delivered by the
Rev. W. R. Bauknight at Ebenezer
Methodise church on Sunday, December
19, on the elder son who remained
at home. I hd 'e orten nearu me i/ivuigal
son preached on, but the first
time in my life to hear the elder sou
preached on. (Must say it was the
most Christlike sermon I ever neard
and one of the great and needs of the
churches of this beautiful world.
Mr. Bauknight will preach on the
same subject next Sunday at Trinity
at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. I beg all
who can to come and hear it.
