The so.called heavily armed police

PURE FOODS.

Several times in the recent past
the BULLETIN has called attention
to the campaign for pure foods
being waged in California. 1t is
an important matter to the people
of these islands, on account of the
large proportion of their food sup
plies which comes from Califor-
MIA. San Francisco papers con
tinue to peg away at the subject.
One Of them received in last mail
announces the discovery that a
large proportion of the jellies sold
in the stores of that city are
adulterated. 1t says that out of
thirty three sampies Of jelly pur-
chased in various parts of the
city, ten were found to be so
adulterated rs to be dangerous as
food. This editorial comment is
made: at is one of the strange
Developments of modern COM
merce that in land like CaiifOr-
MIA, where fruit is so abundant,
such authorizations can he pro-
ftably sold. We lct thousands
of tons of fruit go to waste every
year in our orchards or our
market places and yet import
from abroad pretended fruit pro-
ducts which are not only
adulterated, but are absolutely in
furious to the health of the peo.
pie" The BULLETIN knows of a
resident OF Honolulu who, few
years ago, was buying Swiss
condensed milk for the
food Of infants, under tta
recommendation of a physician,
but who after a while changed to
a famous New York brand on
other advice that it was better as
well as cheaper. Lately the San
Francisco food inspectors discov-
cred, as has been republished in
this paper, spurious qualities in
that very brand Of Now York
condensed milk. Many years ago,
and often since, tue writer adyo.
Gated systematic food inspection
in this country, but thus far our
