PARIS ABATTOIR IS MODEL
ATLANTA MIGHT FOLLOW
BUT ON SMALLER SCALE
Architect Talks of the
Need of Sanitary
Slaughter House.
While the arrangements for the con
struction of an abattoir In Atlanta,
where all beef must be slaughtered,
anil all meat Inspected, are being made,
the public will be Interested In the
largest, best and most famous abattoir
In the world.
This Is the Abattoir de la Vlllette, the
slaughter house of Paris, Vlllette being
a little province of the capital of
France, Just Inside the fortifications of
the beautiful French capital.
It will be remembered that, as a re-
ault of the fight made by The Georgian
on the unsanitary and unhealthfut
methods of slaughtering cattle In At
lanta and the Impure food sold at
reputable places, an ordinance was
passed providing for slaughtering
houses, setting foi;th the conditions un
der which an Individual or firm could
build one, and making It obligatory on
those who have .cattle to' bo slaugh
tered, to have the slaughtering done
at one of these houses, duly licensed
by the city.
Plans are now under foot for the
construction of an Immense abattoir,
but have not yet reached a perfectly
definite stage. It Is probable that the
abattoir will be fashioned after the fa
mous Parisian plant. This plant is
considered the most sanitary, hygienic
and perfectly ventilated In the world.
An Architect's Interest.
Eduard E. Dougherty, the well-
known Atlanta architect, who, a little
over a year ago, returned from Paris,
after asljf years' study In architecture,
took fi^grdat interest,In.tills abattoir
fnVtalks mosf Intin-stlhfcty" of It." ~
"One could not conceive,” he said,
w a place where the conditions are
more perfect. I visited the place one
Sunday, just after a busy day there,
and not a disagreeable odor could be
detected, to tell of the hundreds of cat
tle slaughtered the day before.
This seems remarkable, and more
so when uhe considers that not a de
odorizer Is used. A careful study of
the abattoir Itself explains the mys
tery.
“It Is In the shape of a square. The
area Is 59,000 square yards. It Is one
quarter of a mile each way. On two
sides of the abattoli are canals, Into
which flow all the water used for
cleansing the walks, floors and build
ings.
“On one side are the fortifications of
the city. In front are the immense
gates, through which the wagons and
carts bearing the carcasses enter and
leave.' On the same side as the forti
fications are branch lines of the rail
roads.
Five Great Abattoirs.
“There are five abattoirs In Paris,
but the one 1 In Vlllette Is the largest and
best. Every piece of beef eaten In
this city comes from cattle slaughter
ed at one of these houses. The cattle are
first taken to the custom house, where
the duties are collected. „
"They are then taken to stables. There
are ten stables. In each of which there
are thirty stalls. There are the same
number of slaughtering houses as i
bles. The stables and slaughtering
houses alternate, each being of’ the
same dimensions, 980 feet long by 100
ffet wide. There are two rows of them
on each side of a broad avenue, about
60 feet In width.
"Between each building there Is an
avenue nbout 50 feet In width. All
floors and avenues are constructed of
cement. The buildings are of stone. A
cow Is taken from the stall to the
slaughtering house. When slaughter
ed It Is taken away. A stream of wa
ter from a hose la Immediately applied
to the floor where the slaughtering
takes place, the water flowing to the
cnnal. Not an odor remains.
"In separate stables and slaughter
ing houses, the hogs and pigs are cared
for. After being slaughtered they are
carried to another building, where tho
different parts fit for utilization nru
dissected.
French Like Horse Meat.
"In some of the abattoirs there are
separate slaughtering' houses for
•norseS.
"There Is no wood about these build
ings. . All Is masonry. The roof is of
tile. The floors are of cement. The
windows ore high, but there are many
of them, thus affording perfect ventila
tion. One of the objects of the high
windows Is to keep the cattle from
seeing each other slaughtered.
"Hardly anything would do Atlanta
more good than an abattoir, such as 1
have described. It would be a great
thing for ever)- person In the city. It
would mean food absolutely free from
impurities. It would moan the utilisa
tion of practically every part of cattle
and hogs, the hide, the hair and all
serving their purposes In the commer
cial world.
"I consider the best location for a
slaughtering house In Atlunta to be In
the vicinity, of Peachtree creek. This
Is the nearest' body of water, being
only four miles distant from the cen
ter of the business section. The abat
toir could be. brought nearer by the
construction of canals.
Atlanta Ordinance.
"The ordinance adopted by Atlanta Is
very similar to ,the one In effect In
Paris. I see no reason why the result
should not be the same. The only
substantial difference Is that the abat
toirs in Paris are owned by the mu
nicipality, while the ordinance adopted
here provides for the ownership by
private Individuals, firms or corpora
tions.
"The ordinance providing for the
construction of the five abattoirs In
Paris was adopted In February, 1810.
Ours goes Into effect January 1, 1907.
I don't think It possible that a slaugh
tering house of ample size and accom
modations could be constructed by this
time,
•T L.
tolr on the order
as sobn as tne promoters decide on the
location."

Montgomery. Ain., Oct. 23.—After ezsmln-

conld not help observing the old saying that
‘Idleness I,roc,Is vice.’ nnd to the Idle, uuoc-
spied, shiftless, Insy negro nmy Iw traced

In this connection we desire to call alien-
Mon to the fact that the present. ragrnnt
law needs some serious amendment. Under
the construction placed upon It by onr high
er court, to which we Ikiw In submission.
It Is Impossible to convict n person found
strolling In Idleness, for the reason that
the court bolds that the burden Is upon
the state, not only to prove such Idleness,
but also to establish that such person has
no property or means with which to obtain
a support. I’mler this ruling of our court,
the slats Is reqnlred to prove s negative
which It can not do. Wl recommend that
the nest legislature so amend the law as
tn put the burden of proof upon the defend
ant charged with vagrancy, whereby hs
must establish tbe nature, kind and amount
of property. If sny be has, from which he
gains a support.’’. -,
