There is no Federal inspection for one-third of the meat consumed in this country. Further than this, there is much needed in constructive work on the part of states and municipalities, in which this one-third is produced and slaughtered. Cities plead lack of funds, and there is also lack of knowledge and lack of interest. Meat is too important a feature in our lives to be thus neglected.
