y e .,,AL,'- e se P , R Reurca ANISH DANGE! % ___._--------'--_ Bill to Require Animals to be Killed at Public Abattoir &0 Gaaeeremeatiraiorratdegeas #--" Several years @80 the city . of Ottawa voted $200,000 for the con-- struction of & municipal abattoir, which was never gone on with when it was found that there was no pro-- vision in the Public 'Health Act to compel vendors to have their animals *' tilled at the approved public in-- stitution, and thus protect 'the citi-- | > zens from diseased meat. To meet the condition, H. P. Hill, Conserva-- tive metmber for West Ottawa, has introduced a bill to prohibit the sale of meat slaughtered elsewhere than in a public abattoir, with certain ex-- ceptions. Three Exceptions. These exceptions are an animal which 'has 'been inspected and ap-- proved under the iprovisions of the Meat and Canned Foods Act, which has been imported into Canada and | passed Federal regulations, or which | has been slaughtered outside the city or town, providing such meat or carcass, together with the head, heart, lungs and liver of such animal held by their natural attachments, have 'been inspected and approved at such awbattoir or at any place approv-- ' ed of in the by--law. ' Objection Removed. A similar 'bill, sponsored by Mr. Hill, was killed in comrnittee 'last year because Farmer members fear-- ed it unnecessarily would inconven-- ience farmers bringing in their car-- casses. Mr. Hill will point out this year that Inspectors would be at every market place attended by the farmers, and thus obviate any pos-- sibility of their having to travel to the other side of the city or town to have their carcasses inspected.
