    The Irish Free State Government has lately introduced an official system of examination and certification of all meat intended for export ; this has resulted in a considerable improvement in the class of meat received, not only as to freedom from disease, but also as to handling in transport. The North of Ireland Government is, at the time of writing, preparing a similar system for adoption, which will come into operation on May 1st, 1931.

    CASEOUS LYMPHADENITIS. For years this disease has caused a considerable amount of extra work for the meat inspectors, but the careful examination of all imported mutton and lamb in the City has resulted in more satisfactory inspection in the countries of origin.
