Exaggerated accounts Of the seizure oil poisoned
grapes by the health officials tend TO cause need
less apprehension en- the part of the puDnc. In
order to prevent common form of fungus known
as dry or black rot grape-growers have been
spraying the vines with sulphate OF copper ana
other compounds. Ordinarily the chemicals are
washed of by the rains long before the fruit IS
delivered in market, but owing TO the dry sea-
son some slight traces of the copper have been
found in a few shipments Of grapes from Uhe
Hudson River towns. While the precautions
taken by the Board Of Health are, perhaps, timely
it is absurd to suppose that any serious conSe-
quences will result from the purchase ana con-
sumption of Concord and other grapes now IN
market and unusually fine and cheap. Neither
Paris green nor arsenic in any other form Is USED
in the vineyards, and the slight faint of copper
found by the experts is obviously due to the
dry season. If any householder be alarmed by
the reports which have been published, ne only
needs to have the grapes which he may have
purchased carefully washed before sent TO table
in order to secure himself against any possible
harm from the precautions which are necessary
in the vineyards to prevent black rot
