PORK NEEDS MUCH COOKING ? - Statement by the United States Department of Agriculture ^ a The approach of the Christmas sea- f son prompts the United States De- J partment of Agriculture to issue a warning against eating pork or any products containing pork unless it is 1 well cooked. At this season, especk ially, quantities of certain kinds of ^ II pork products which many persons IL are accustomed to eat uncooked are ?H prepared in homes and on farms, as l |||| well as commercially. Uncooked pork a |Sk frequently contains parasites of micro- j jg||t scopic size known as trichinae, and 0 persons who eat uncooked pork run c ?? the risk of contracting trichinosis, a J most painful and distressing disease J f which sometimes ends fatally in spite \ of any treatment The health of pa- . tients who recover from the acute stages of the disease is often permanently impaired. It is important to remember that E uncooked pork is likely to contain live ^ trichinae no matter how healthv the |j animal from which it came may have appeared, or how excellent the meat o looks. A satisfactory method of me$t ^ inspection to discover these parasites P has not yet been devised. Hence with g x certain exceDtions it is dangerous to n ? ? eat uncooked pork even though it has t been "U. S. Inspected and passed." ? In order to safeguard consumers ^ who may be ignorant or careless of <> the dangers of raw pork, the Depart- b ment of Agriculture requires that cer- ? ^ tain kinus of ham, sausages and othei H pork products prepared in establish ments operating under the Federal meat inspection be subjected to processes that are known to destroy tri- I chinae, such processes, however, are b required only in the cases of those E pork products that are customarily eaten without cooking. In the case oi other products such as fresh pork and ^ ordinary varities of ham, susage and bacon, which in the United States are custom^ilv cooked by the consumers before they are eaten, special pro- F Iceesses lo destroy triennial; arc nui 'used in meat-packing establishments ? Linder Federal inspection. According- t |y, unless the product is definitely f inown to have been specially pro- f Kssed to destroy trichinae, it is high- f important that the consumer make j le that pork is properly cooked be- _ re it is eaten. The most affective Kid simplest precaution against tricb- Bosis is to avoid eating uncooked or Biproperly cooked pork. h The trichinae parasite die and be- a feme harmless when exposed to suf- B [icient heat They are so small that aven though present in large numbers they do not appreciably affect the value or desirability of the meat for food purposes, provided it is not eaten raw or imperfectly cooked. < l In the case of uncurcd pork the thoroughness of the cooking can be J r judged by whether the meat clear to the center of the piece has lost its ( reddish, bloody appearance and has ( become more or less white in color Heat penetrates slowly into pieces of meat during cooking and the temper- J ature near the center ordinarily never ^ approaches very closely that of the surrounding air or water. 1 How Long to Cook Pork The following rule for cooking pork by boiling is based on careful experiments carriea out some years ago by j ^ a Danish investigator: Cook the meat 15 minutes (sum-j I mer) to 18 minutes (winter) for each ! pound of weight if put into boiling | water, keeping .the water boiling! | thoroughout the cooking proems. If * _ the meat is put into cold water deduct half the time required to bring the water to a boil. Examples: How long should a 10- . pound ham be boiled if placed in boil- I water? Ten multiplied by 18 . jts 180 minutes, or 8 hours. How , i^ould a 10-pound ham be boiled I 9k1 in cold water and if 1 hour is SB to bring the water to a boil: fj^Btiplied by 18, minus 30, Sg^tO minutes or 2 1-2 hours, j|gl-ng begins.

It is the same distressing cry? "Give us Milk, that our babiese may live!" With beating heart we went to the succor of the "Babies of Belgium;" what shall our answer be to the desolate mothers of Ita'y. The nee' is urgent Five hundred thousand babies are suffering from hunger and the hunger diseases. The whole child life of Italy is endangered, and disaster can only be averted by sending milk in sufficient quantities to tide them over the crisi.-; and we must ask ourse'ves this question are we willing to make the sacrifice to send it? Milk is the very elexir of life of the baby; but in Ita'y there is no milk, a milk famine exists, war and disease having: left the nation without cattle or milk oats. Will you help to save these babies? Will you interest your neighbor, your club, your church society, the women of your city and community in saving these babies?
