Notice to Butchers, Stock Buyers and Dealers in Meats. “Meat is clean, sound, dressed and properly prepared part of animals in good health at time of slaughter**." Animals with tuberculosis or hog cholera are not in good health and do not, make sound meat and such meat cannot be sold except in violation of the pure food law and of the special law prohibiting the killing of and the sale of meat from sick animals. The too common practice of selling tuberculous cows and hogs suffering from cholera at public stockyards from which they are taken for slaughter for food by vicious and depraved butchers is a menace to the public health and a crime that if appreciated in its repulsiveness by meat Consumers would destroy the desiretor beef and pork. The laws prohibiting the practiceare comprehensive and efficient. They only require enforcement to place the farmer who sells cholera hogs, the butcher who kills them and the dealer who retails the meat in jail, or beyond the ban of decent citizenship. H you have knowledge of the sale or slaughter of diseased animals report the fact to the local health officer, and also to the State Food Commissioner. County, city and town health officers, state food inspectors and all other officers whose duty it is to enforce the pure food law, will be governed by this notice. H. E.
