It would seem, first of all, that as lit tle consideration as Is given the pro ducts that are to go out Into the midst of the people, much less care Is taken for the protection against AUh and trickery with the meat that Is fur nished our soldiers and sailors. * The cry seems to be “Any old thing hi good enough for the government," and to this end a perfected system for cheating the government Is In oper ation. In the rendering department where they manufacture lard, butterlne and other by-products, the “scraps” from the Aoors are used for the purpose of rendering and they are thrown Into a great caldron. A small army of men are employed here. We discovered that a week before our visit there a Polish workman had fallen Into one of the vats. As soon as the foremen of the room heard of thla man's falling Into the vat, all of tho other men were ordered from the ere, and the search for the body of the worker began. Body is Removsd. \ After an hour's work the body of this man wag removed from the tank and carried off to an undertaker's estab lishment.
