ADUL ITERATION OF FOOD.

The abundance and chespness of food in this coun-
try hss heretofore operated effective check upon
the unprncpled villain who fattens the aduteration
Of human food, which his sk in roguery enables him
to practice upon the unwary consumer. Ia England,
particularly in London, the bu-iness of adu teration,
though denounced by law under severe penalties 10
still carried on 10 extent almost beyond belief.
Nearly every article of food and drink that enters into
the consumption Of the poor is bssey adutsrsted; the
businefs Of sduteration is carried by persons who
work at il ss regularly and assiduousy they would
ct any honest svocation. To go great extent had
this business been carried ten years ago, that ,ee
bIsted London chemist published volume of over 800
pages, detailing the various processes, and pointing
out the means of detecting spurious articles. Cnfor
tunatey for the consumer, many Of the adultersOns
could only be detected by practical chemist though
from certain circumstances the consumer might DO led
to suspest fabrication.
The work alluded TO is Mitches Fslsifcs atoms of
Food, London, lSiS, and lie useful and interesting
