BEAUTIFUL NEW Spring Styles ARRIVING DAILY FINAL CLEAN-UP SALE on WINTER STYLES THE Band Box Metzger Talks On Duties Of Food Department A. W. Metzger. Salem, chief of the food and dairy division of the state department of agri culture, discussed activities of the bureau inspection of dairies, restaurants and meats markets as carried on by the bureau and the way League of Women Voters could assist the bureau by reporting violations of health and sanitation. His address was heard by members of the League of Women Voters at the Girls' Community clubhouse Tuesday afternoon. The speaker pointed out that the agriculture department is divided into various sections, among them administration, grain, plant industry, animal husbandry, foods and dairies. Of particular Interest to the lo cal group was foods, its hand ling and how the bureau con ducts inspections of restaurants and other food dispensing organizations. Mr. Metzger said that the state la divided into seven sec tions, each section having a food inspector. Jackson . and Jose phine counties are in the same section and it is expected that a second man will be added to this section to take care of the growing need for strict sanita tion with the expected increase in population and food dispen series in Medford and commun ity. - The speaker explained that the Inspector keeps a record of each establishment visited and sends a duplicate record to the state office where it is available at all times. In many instances Mr. Metzger said It Is necessary to carry cases to court in order to get proper action in correct ing a violation of sanitation. He explained . the process carried on by the inspector in invest! gating a cafe or other establish ment, the points that are check ed and said that 1989 store in-, spections were made last year in this district, 84 meat markdts. 16 slaughter houses, 102 beer parlors, six garbage plants and other numbers of increasing in terest. In all, a total of 3,173 inspections were made in the two counties during the past year. . - A display of food picked up throughout the state by inspect ors and sent to Salem for ex amination In the foods labora tory because of their adulterated nature or misinterpretation of labels were shown. Later Mr. Metzger answered questions asked by league members re garding phases of food bureau activities. During this round-table dis cussion time it was brought out that typhoid fever and tubercu losis were the two most prom inent diseases in connection with food dispensing; discussion of pasturization of milk was in cluded; inspection of dairies and that it is not necessary for food dispensaries to display inspec tion charts; hot and cold meat Inspection was questioned and Ihe subject of physical examina tions for those participating in food and dairy businesses. Preceding Mr. Metzger's talk Mrs. Carpenter stressed the dec laration of the national league board in urging a careful in vestigation and understanding of candidates and voting for the next congress which, in all prob ability will be an important fea ture in winning peace after the war. The Importance of the league was stressed and the watchword, "an alert and in formed citizenship" ' brought again before the members that a vigilant citizenship is regarded a necessity in time of crisis, Society To Meet Saturday Afternoon General Joseph Lane society.
