Boil, Then Taste
Botulism Bule
“Don’t try to tell by odor or
appearance whether home canned
string beans, corn or peas are
spoiled or not. Boil them first
then taste them afterwards.”
Thi3 is the advice of G. V.
Copson, head of the bacteriology
department at O.S.C., who has
tested scores of food examples for
the deadly botulism. Such food
that may smell and appear all
right may carry enough poision to
be deadly, while food that is com
pletely spoiled can be rendered
harmless by boiling.
Botulinus poisioning is caused
by a germ fairly common in Ore
gon soils, Professor Copson ex
plains. While it rarely appears
when reasonable care is used in
canning, it is so deadly that it is
not safe to take chances at any
time. He also warns against the
throwing of suspicious canned food
to chickens until it is boiled, as it
is just as deadly to them, causing
“limberneck” preceding death.
The posion in canned food is
destroyed by boiling for 10 minutes,
Professor Copson adds. The germ
forms a spore which resists boiling
temperatures but which is harm
less in the human body. It is ad
visable, however, to reboil foods
that have been opened more than
a day or so.
A positive antitoxin for botulism
has been developed, but the poison
works so rapidly that is usually
impossible to administer the rem
edy in time to do any good.

ment.
Under the new state law levying
a severance tax of 5c per thousand
feet of timber harvested, an est
imated $250,000 per year will be
provided for researcn of which 60
per cent has been allocated to the
work of the forest products labora
tory, Dean Dunn explained. With
an added state appropriation about
$10,000 per year will be available
for the work of the laboratory,
making a greatly expanded pro
gram requiring the fulltime service
of a technical director.

Traffic Toll
Takes Big Drop
In May Oregonians pushed down
the highway death toll for the
third time this year, it has been
announced by Robert S. Farrell
Jr., secretary of state. Nineteen
were killed during the month, com
pared to 40 during May last year.
February and April tolls were
also markedly below those for the
same months of 1946. So far this
year, traffic fatalities have fallen
almost 20 per cent from last year’s
levels.
It was pointed out that reduced
highway toll is in the face of the
greatest flood of traffic the state
has ever seen. Automobile reg
istration and gas sales are swell
ing every month.
The average number of May
traffic deaths for the last five
peace-time years has been 28. The
toll of 19 this May is regarded as
a remarkable reduction.
