The J'oith American has this to say
about the hog. The danger of eating
uncooked pork has been once more
impressed upon the public by the
Bridesbnrg tragedy. The hog being
a scavenger, is more than all other
edible animals subject to trichina.
And this fact may have something to
do with the prohibtion of pork as
food by several Oriental peoples, the
Jews included. However, when thor
oughly cooked, pork may be eaten
without risk of trichinois. But the
hog is a filthy animal all the same.
