HOW MUCH YOU EAT

ONE ANIMAL FOR EACH
PERSON’S YEARLY FOOD
Every mart, woman and chili in
the United States eat each year a
whole steer, sheep or i :-g, according
to government figures which show
that 100,000.090 meat t nteals are 1
slaughtered in this couxtrv each year*
Of one’s beef mutton or pork, how
ever. one has to give sib 1 1-2 per.
cent on account of cor-dem. nation by
trovermeat and city officials for
his proportion of the mest slaughter
ed is thrown out S3 uTlfl t for use.
Tr.e federal inspection covered las*
year 53.990.000 meat animals slau
ghtered. and condemned 299J955
whole carcasses, and 614.653 in •
part- This represents considerably.,
more than that number of cases of
ptomaine poisoning which povern
raer.t inspectors saved Americans,
but j- also represents a considerable f
saving in other diseases.
Ta": jHalosa was the chief disease ;
cod- .'d, 33,000 beeves and 66,000 i;
p:rk carcasses feeing entirely con
demned and parts :f 43.000 other
beeves and 44/100 other swine being
removed- Hog cholera was respon
sible for the next largest loss, nearly
102.000 swine being condemned en
tirely or. this account.
It cos: the taxpayers ?3-375,000
for this protection .or four cents

country, which was paid for when
they bought their beef, sheep or hog
for the year. Is selecting one’s
diet for the year one Should bear
in mind the additional fact that over
half the number of food animals j
inspected by federal government last
yearwere hogs in connection with t

Chicago, states that one of every ten
persons on whom 'post mortem ex- f

disease of the nsiiscles caused by j
eating raw or only partly cooked

SCIENCE’S EXPLANATION
OF CERTAIN TYPES OF IONS
Novel suggestions as to the na
ture of certain types of ions in
the .atmosphere have recently been
made by J. A, Pollock to the
Philosophical Magazine. The au
, thor considers first the- large ions'
discovered fey Langerin Is 1905, the
mobility of which, at wiwaat atmos
pheric pr'-wure, depends upon the
relative humidity.
An ion is composed of an momj
or a group of stoma, and an elec
tron, or electrons. It cakes the in
vest: gator into a -sor'd so minute,
‘■'to microscopic a* to bring ore
' faring the minus lign.*
Pollock states reasons for regard
ing these fens as co’feetfecs of wa
ter rootero, e*.-r surrounding a
daws nucleus, and electrified by the
attachment, of a small fen of the
ordinary type.
In a second memoir he describes
an fen haring a mobility imermedi
ate between that of the small ion
and the large ton ef Laagevia- Its
mobility dcper.d# upon the vapor
pressure of toe moisture present.
Pollock regards the ion, of this
type as consisting of a rigid nucleus
surrounded by a dense atmosphere
of water vapor. With increase of
vapor pressure a critical stage is
retwhed beyond which the vapor is
condensed into water, and the inter
nw.'-.ite iott becomes the large ion
of [.angevin.
