Farmers Selling Dressed Meat. ~ The following circular letter. issued by the Live Stock Commissiom-r at ()l (- ava, should be carefully read by allrl'ar- mers who make a. praetiee ol' killing,r their hogs or beef animals for sale, “The. custom prevailingamong farmers throughout, (‘auada ol' slaughtering aui~ mals, parlieulm'ly swine, upon lheir own premises and selling lhe dressed carca- ses on the. local markel, is one that enâ€" tails more. or less loss to lho producer. Before the advenl ol' par-king establish- ments, lho doomslic l. min was supplied by the. local butchers, who wore necess- arin compelled to provide l'or future supplies, and, as a result, the local marâ€" kets were crmrted. Conditions have changed, however, the local dealers no longer supplying the domestic lrade, which has passed into the hands of lho packing houses. which are now the diaâ€" tributing centres for meals. Packers can allord lo, and actually(lo,pay higher prices and sell at lower values than the local butchers, for reasons that are ob- vious when ono considers that prollts are represented by the byâ€"prm'lucls. 'l‘ho packers are adverse to buying dressed carcascs as they roljn'osont smaller pro- fits in by-produets; again, dressed carâ€" cascs are imperfectly handled by the farmer. the meat in many cases being bruised and unsightly, this, as well as improper chilling, ’lming deterrent to good prices. Animals, especially hogs, require scientific chilling, otherwise those parts which enter into the process of curing beeomc sour and unlit for mar- ket. Packers prefer to buy their mcats on the hoof, and for the reasons set, forth above. are able to pay higher prises for the same. - ' - “In view however, of the large trade carried on in some parts of Canada, more particularly during the fall and winter. in dressed pork, as well as other dressed meats, attention may be diroc- ted to one of the requirements of the regulations made under the new Moat Inspection Act, which is likely to have a considerable effect 011 the business above referred to. The Department of Agriculture at Ottawa having assumed l the responsibility of inspecting and prac- ,,tically guaranteeing the healthfulncss of all meats and meat products sent out by the packing houses, must, of necess- ity, protect itself by making sure that no diseased carcascs are permitted to enter these establishments. The most effective way of preventing the entry of such diseased meat is, of course, the careful ante-mortcm inspection provided for by the regulations ; but in view of the large trade carried on in dressed carcaâ€" scs and of the fact that both farmers and packers have been in the habit of hand- ling meats in this way, the officials in charge of the enforcement of the Act have decided to admit to the establish- mcts under inspection, dressed carca- scs nder such conditions as will enable thcmto judge with. reasonable certainty as to whether the animal, before slaughâ€" ter, was free from disease. Provision * has, thercfm'e, been made for- thc admis- sion on inspection of dressed carcascs, with thchcad, heart, lungs and liver hold‘ by their natural attachments, such ‘carcases to be inspected before enter- ing the establishment, and if found fit for food, to be so marked and admitted for packing purposes, while if found to be diseased, to be condemned and tanked. “This being the case, it is incumbent upon every farmer bringing dressed hogs or other animals to market to remember that unless the carcases are dressed in accordance with the regulation ment- ioned above, namely with these organs left in their proper- positions, it will not be possible for the representatives of the packing houses to buy such carcas- es for use in any of the establishments coming under the operation of the Meat and Canned‘ FOOd's Act. “The presence of the buyers or agents of those es‘tablishments on our local markets has alwaye been, at least to some extent, a safeguard against poss- ibleattcmpts by local combinations of butchers and others to depress the price of dressed meats, and it will be well for prod uccrs to bear in mind the new conâ€" ditions and when, for any reason, unable to market their stock on, the hoof as :they should undoubtedly do whenever ‘possibladrcss their hogs, as well as other animals, in such a way as to meet the requirements of the new Act.” “nuâ€"â€" Public Gwnership and Railways. Mr. John Z. White, of Chi'cago,"d'cliv- cred an interesting address on the above subject in Victoria Hall, 'l‘0ronto, a few evenings ago. The World says : “ Mr. White, who was frequently ap- plauded, offered some very convincing statistics to prove that public owner- ship, whorc' tried, had been successfuL, He. instanccd the fact that publicly-own- ‘ ed waterworks systems in the United States ,showcd charges per family per year of $4.13 on the average, whereas privately-owned systems exhibited like ' charges of 810.53. “ Mr. White emphasized the cheap- ncss of tramportation on the continent of Europe, due to the gm’crnmcut ownâ€" ership of the railways. In Belgium it is possible for a workman, whose home was fiftyâ€"one. miles from his work, to travel to and fro for a week at a cost of only57 cents. In Berlin, the publicly-ownml street railway system enabled a man to t ‘avcl five miles out in the country and r return, as many times in the your as he wished, at a cost of only $1.50. Over 07 per cent. of the railway trailic of Central Europe was of the third class, at a- cost ranging from oneâ€"third of the amount to one cont :1» mile, and drew attention to the injustice done the working classes of America in their not being;r given. the . option.” . friends here. i lohn Nevlson at Best.
