Meat with whiskers on it! That is what Health Superintendent T. E. Reeks told the health commis- sion the food inspectors find in some stores they visit on their daily rounds. An idea of conditions that exist in a few of New Britain’s grocery and meat stores was revealed by Dr. Reeks. When the curtain went up the health commissioners were sur- prised at the show. . This all hap- pened at the January meeting of the board late yesterday afternoon. The subject was brought up by the superintendent when he explained to the commissioners that the inspectors are forced to contend with very bit- ter antagonism by the proprietors of some stores whose establishments they go to inspect. On that account he would like the ordinances revamped S0 that the inspectors would be backed by the proper authority and that they might overcome the re- monstrance of these proprietors. He said the ordinances were not very ex- plicit. In fact, he said, the greatest problem that confronts the inspectors is to judge when stores are clean and when they are dirty. The First Reel. Stores have been visited, Dr. Reel said, where dust from an eighth to a quarter of an inch thick was found on the shelves and bread was piled on counters on which also reposed kero- sine oil cans, bill heads, wrapping paper, potatoes, etc. Some butchers who are recognized as men who want to do the right thing are authority for the statement that meat is not good to eat until it has whiskers on it. Before it is fit for consumption the butcher must turn barber and sculptor, removing the fuzz and that part of the meat that has turned a dark color. Then it is de- liciou Dr. Reeks told of inspectors going into stores and finding meat that was prancing around the prairies when Methuselah was a babe in arms. The ! proprietors were asked whether they dered it fit for eating purpos ariably they answered in the neg- it into the scrap barrel, saying that it would be dis- posed of.

John D. to the Rescue. The proper way to treat meat that s not fit for eating is to give it a “shot” of the liquid that put the “rock” in Rockefeller—kerosine oil. This is injected into the meat by means of a hyperdermic syringe and it 1s doubtful whether it would be considered proper food even in the trenches. It can be fried, boiled, brand cannot be eradicated. Going into cellars in some stores, the inspectors have been able to find | so strong has been the smell, Dr. Reeks’ said. He told of a squabble one of the inspectors had with a butcher who insisted that some meat which the inspector con- demned was good. The inspector brought the meat to the office of the board of health and Dr. Reeks jok- him on the spot. The windows were thrown open but the odor of the meat did not vacate for three hours. Wanted—Ordinances With Teeth Dr. Reeks did not intend that his criticism should include all stores. He said that nts are always willing and anxious to co-oper- ate with the recognibed mercha health department and that they could depended on to keep clean, wholesome food. About five stores in town have received verb- al and written notices to clean house but thus far they have ignored the instructions, he said. What is want- ed are ordinances with teeth in them, ordinances that will back up the health *department Dr. Reeks con- sulted several lawyers regarding the present ordinances in regard to food stores and he said they told him they were weak. Chairman Tallard remarked that it might be possible to close up some stores on the ground that they were nuisances, Dr. Reeks replied that this would be desirable but that it would be hard to prove the nuisance | in court. Dr. Reel be s and Food Inspector Rad- | cliff were appointed a committee to draft a set of food ordinances with teeth in them for presentation to the next meeting. Commissioner Davenport for the| committee on plumbers recommended | several changes in the rules regard- ing material to be used ana they were adopted. Slaughter House at Town Farm. Chairman Tallard . reported for the slaughter house committee. He said the committee went to Rridgeport to inspect the municipal slaughter house and he believed such an institution would be a fine thing for New Britain. The Bridgeport plant returned $1,900 to the city last year, the income ac- cruing from fees charged for slaugh- tering. Te suggested that the New Britain plant could be located at the Town Farm and that Superintendent Kibbe could have charge. Dr. Radcliffe read a letter from Heman O. Averill, state commission- er on domestic animals, in which the latter complimented the city of | New Britain for its intention to have a municipal slaughter house. He saia conditions in the state are deplorable and that local beef slaughtered usual- | ly consists of cast off animals having a tendency toward disease. The committee’s report was accept- ed and it was voted to continue the committee so that it could present figures regarding the cost of a slaugh- ter house in New Britain. On recommendation of Dr. Recks it was decided not to continue the use of metal license plates for milk wagons but to paint a serial number | of uniform height on the wagons. It was also decided to abolish badges far licensed plumbers, furnishing them with a written license instead.
