-Eastburn Reeder manages to get cx-
travagant pay for his efforts to keep up
the price of butter at the expense of oleo-
margarine. His salary for the last two
years as Dairy and Food Commissioners
was 1000 per year and for the next two
years it will be $4,000 per year. One
would suppose that for such sum this
commissioner should give all his time to
the work, instead of peddling skim milk
and butter around the country. These
are some of the figures, according to the
Doylestown Democrat, of the fat job the
commissioner has got into:
"For the expenses of Eastburn Recder,
Dairy and Food Commissioner, for the
two years ending June l, 1895, the Legis
latu'e has made the following appropria-
lions: Salary, $4,000; counsel fees, So
900; chemists fees, 81, 1856; agents, de-
tectives, $2,915; travelling expenses,
$797 office expenses, 1906; total, $l4,
| 963.
"Mr. Reeder had from time to time
borrowed money from creamcrles with
the understanding that II he obtained an
appropriation it should be repaid. In
order to prevent such repayment the
Legislature has made each appropriation
specific aud to be used only for The pur-
poses named, oil balances to be returned
TO the State Treasury on or before June
1, 1896.
" For the coming two years the follow.
ing appropriations have been made; Sal
AIRY Of Commissioner, $4,000; salary OF
clerk, $4,000 other expenses, $4,000
total, 500, 300.
/ "The anli-oleo law has been amended
so that one half of the fines, instead Of
being paid to the informer, now go into
the State Treasury for the use OF the
Dairy and Food Commissioner.
