LanfOrd Locals.

Lanford seems somewhat dull and
this evening, for several days past we
nave had quite q number Of visitors
for a small place, consequently socia-
bles seems to be the order OF the day,
or night we should have said, and as
several Of the visitors have returned
to their homes it cas- IS u gloom over
the society circle Of the young people,
especially some of the young men
who are wearing very long faces just
at present.
Misses Lizzie and Daisy Wofrord, of
Hendersonville, N. O., have been Wis
iting their aunt, Mrs. T. r. l.. GRAY

IMPURE FOODS.

Some OF tho Many Things We Eat That
Are Adultereted.
A recent report Of the dairy food COM
missioner Of Pennsylvania names no
many food products which are adulter-
ated as to raise q query as TO what 10
not adulterated. Among the many i'm
pure things sold are allspice, which Of
ten is mainly composed Of ground and
roasted cOcoanut shells; baking powder;
beef, wine and iron prepared as q tonic ;
butter, buckwheat flour, candy, catchup,
cider, cheese, cinnamon, cloves-the
latter made almost entirely from ground
cocoanut shells, the odor and taste Of
cloves being scarcely perceptible; coffee
consisting chiefly Of coffee screenings
or damaged coffee, but sold at q high
price as a pure article; fresh "Jaya"
made from wheat and barley hulls,
roasted with sugar and containing no
coffee; Goldfish not Goldfish at all-mere-
ly cheap dried fish; oream Of tartar
adulterated with flour; flaxReed adul-
terated with starch; fruit "buttera,"
such as apple butter, peach butter, etc. +,
very seldom pure, being adulterated
with starch waste and salicylio acid
the same is true Of grated p~ineapples
ginger adulterated with ash, rice hulls,
rice -four md cayenne pepper; lard
maple strip, made from commercial
glucose thinned with about 30 per cent
of water mixed spices; orange juice,
lemon oil, lemon phosphate, molasses,
mustard, olive oil, pepper, vinegar, va
nilla extract, all kinds Of preserves, ex-
tract Of strawberries and tea.
To add to the deception a few apple
seeds are scattered through the 80 called
fruit jams, or timothy or other seeds
are added to the mixture to represent
raspberry, strawberry, etc. The prodlo-
ton Of artificial colors is particularly
common in CONNECTIONS. Indigo, tuner
ic, annotto, logwood and cochineal are
used in great quantities, and are proba-
bly, not harmful; arsenic, copper and
leads are very deleterious, but are not
now used as much as in former times,
before sanitary officials made such per.
sistent attacks On them. Milk and milk
products are often colored. Annotto ia
very commonly used by dairymen ia
give a rich yellow color. In itself an.
MOTTO is probably harmless. but 1t pro.
duces deceptive results. New York
