Labeling and Packaging
The U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA) has stan
dardized requirements for
labeling and packaging vaccines
and other biologies sold for use in
animals.
Officials of USDA’s Animal
and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS) said that
except for a few new labeling
requirements-the change merely
incorporates into the Code of
Federal Regulations existing
administrative memorandums,
notices, and policies affecting
manufacturers licensed under
the Virus-Serum-Toxin Act of
1913.
APHIS had proposed the
change in December 1972.
Comments were received from 15
persons during the 60 days set
aside for this purpose. Most of the
suggested changes were adopted
in the final version, including
provisions for extending the
number of species for which a
rabies vaccine may be used if the
efficacy and dosage level are

properly substantiated.
In packaging and labeling their
products--under the new
regulations--foreign and
domestic manufacturers will be
required to:
-- Comply with labeling
requirements for products im
ported for research and
evaluation in the United States.
Follow new labeling
requirements for modified live
virus rabies vaccines. (Inac
tivated rabies vaccines already
are subject to similar labeling
requirements.) Labels have to
carry warnings limiting vac
cination to designated species of
animals; establish dosages; and
Care Key
Poisoning
Exposure of some foods to
summer temperatures could lead
to food poisoning and dangerous
consequences, reminds Ruth J.
Buck, Extension nutrition
specialist at The Pennsylvania
State University. Although
cream pies, custards and potato
salads are frequently food
poisoning culprits, anything
made partly or wholly of milk
products, eggs, meat, poultry,
fish and shellfish harbors bac
teria that will grow at alarming
rates in hot weather.
By maintaining the tem
perature of your refrigerator at
45 degrees F. and the freezer
compartment at 0 degree F. or
lower, you can be reasonably
sure of food storage for three or
four days Leave space between
containers to assure air cir
culation
Refrigerate all perishables as
soon as you get them home
Leftovers of large quantities
should be divided into smaller
containers and refrigerated as
soon as possible

Requirements Updated
recoipmend vaccination
schedules. Manufacturers must
substantiate efficacy of their
vaccines for all animals listed on
the label. Previously, this data
was required for only six species:
dogs, cats, cattle, horses, sheep,
and goats.
At the same time, however, the
new regulations relax labeling
and packaging requirements for
exported products, subject to
restrictions against reim
portation. Basically, APHIS now
will allow export shipments in
sealed shipping boxes marked as
to contents without inclusion of
individual package labels
The amended regulations were
published in the Federal Register
To Food
Prevention
After handling raw meat or
poultry, wash your hands and any
kitchen utensils you used. Never
bring raw meat in contact with
foods which will be eaten raw or
only slightly cooked, since only
high cooking temperatures will
kill bacteria.
Your refrigerator will cool
foods more efficiently if it is kept
clean both inside and out. Keep
the drip pan free from lint and
dirt. Allow no more than a
quarter-inch of ice to accumulate
on the cooling coils. Check the
latch and gaskets for a snug fit.
Perfumes, Colognes
and Toilet Water
vTour favorite scents are
fashion accessories to be enjoyed
every day. Mrs. Ruth Ann
Wilson, Extension clothing
specialist at The Pennsylvania
State University, says perfumes
can evaporate or spoil from
exposure to cold or heat, so you
may be disappointed if you save
your perfume only for special
occasions

Fix-It Tip
Outdoor living means out
door lighting. Lights at eye
level cause glare so they
should be placed 10 to 20
feet off the ground. So that
large areas will be lighted,
use floodlamps or bulbs in
flood reflectors.
Use weatherproof sockets
and floodlamps with weather
resistant glass. While you
may think in terms of posts
for overhead lights, don’t
forget they may be mounted
on the sides of buildings and
in trees.
If you lack an outdoor out
let, have an electrician in
stall a separately fused cir
cuit especially for your out
door needs. Cable is then run
-Von; this in metal conduit to
a waterproof metal splice
box. Wiring may be run from
here to the places where you
want your lights.
