THE AoULTeRATIoN OF FOOD.
A House Committee Gives Some Reason
Why 1t should Be stopped.

A House Committee Gives Some Reasons
Why 1t should BE stopped.
WASHINGTON CITY, June 17.-Paddock,
from the committee on agriculture and
forestry, made report to the senate yes
terday on the pure food bill. The report
gives good reasons for imposing the exc
cution of the law upon the agricultural
department, and says that it is estimated
by a leading trade journal of the
United States, that per cent of
the entire food product of the country is
sophisticated. Taking the estimate of
$50, 900, 100000 as the total value of the
food supply consumed in the United
States annually, there is, upon this basis
of estimation, 800, 0OO, 900 year of fraudu-
lent food products foisted upon consum-
ers.
The Farmers Are Complaining.
The committee says that the food pro-
ducers' products are sophisticated and
misbranded and their market for pure
food product restricted because of the sus-
picion OF fraud which discredits the pur-
ity of the products subject to adulteration.
Both houses of congress have been del
uged with petitions from the farmers or
CARNATIONS during the--present session,
praying for Legislation which will compel
the manufacturers of hog products to con-
form to the laws of commercial honesty
They complain, and justly, that the sale of
compound products under the name of the
genuine article is destroying a remunera-
tive market for their hogs by displaoing
millions of pounds of pure lard with arti-
cles of a cheaper quality sold under the
same name.
Should Sell for What They Are.
While eminent chemists are not agreed
that the lard compounds are deleterioas to
health, says the report, there can be no
dissent from the view that such article
should be sold under their rightful names
and marketed as compounds and not as
the SIMPLE products which they simulate.
The farmers of the country who see their
products lessened in value every year by
millions through sophistication and mis-
branding and their tables assaulted in turn
with fraudulent manufactured food pro-
ducts have every reason to complain that
they are robbed at every turn of the wheel.
