DR.. 5. A. Knapp, representing the
United States government, has been
investigating the rices Of Japan. In
most OF the large cities Of Japan there
are good agricultural museums where
samples can be seen. The one in Tokyo
is Of exceptional merit. Two days at
the Imperial College OF Agriculture,
where many experiments in production
Of rice have been conducted, and one
day at the Agricultural Museum OF
Tokyo, gave him list OF the best rices
Of Japan from the scientific standpoint.
and from the practical. so far as indi-
Gated by samples. The second step
was to visit the fields and examine the
standing rice, noting varieties and
methods Of cultivation; after which
the millers we're seen as to the best
varieties for milling, and finally such
experienced exporters OF rice in the
treaty ports as we're the most reliable
were consulted. By consensus Of
opinion it was agreed that kyusha rice
was superior to that produced in any
other portion OF Japan, IN purity OF
the seed, in nutritivo value, in flavor
and in milling qualities. Samples were
obtained from Kyushu and the best se-
lection made. 1t is necessary to select
and purchase seed rice during the
harvest, as shortly after harvest most
OF the rice, except what IS required for
home use and the next planting. is

is removed. rendering 1t unit for seed.
Ten tons Of Kyushu seed rice we're
purchased and samples tested by mill
ing before shipment to the Department
Of Agriculture for distribution.

now ABOUT CHiCAGO INK /?

From the Joliet Sun;
The crusade against the peddling OF
impure milk has been successfully
prosecuted in Aurora, and now that the
appropriation bill has become a law
here, and Health Commissioner Kahn
has little money with which TO pro-
coed, 1t might be well to pursue some
investigations here.
The Aurora case showed that milk
which had been ''dOctOred" by the ad-
ditiOn of formaldehyde had been sold
TO customers by n milk peddler who
had been in business there fifteen
years. The milkman was found guilty
and fine was assessed against him,
but the conviction was largely on tech
meal grounds, as 1t was pretty well es-
tablished that the defendant knew
nothing Of the presence of the foreign
material in the milk which he peddled.
He bought all his milk from two neigh
bOrs, and one of these, a man named
Henry King, frankly admitted he had
made use Of formaldehyde. He had
put 1t into milk which he had sent To
the Aurora creamery, and he had more
Of the stuff at home, although he de
clared he had put none of the stuff In
the milk sold to the convicted milkman
Mr.. King said the Aurora Creamery
Company sent him a package, and told
him to put 1t in the milk to preserve 1t,

counts. On Monday he had the brazen
eifrOntery to accuse Hon. Robert Il.
Burke, a man whom he had never seen,
Of Offering to FIX" his taxes for so.
When Mr.. Burke heard Of the charge
for the first time he jumped into a car
rage, ana driving to the man Whites
place of business asked him II he had
ever seen him before. White said that
he had not. Mr.. Burke, filled with In
dignatiOn, obliged the fellow to accom-.
pnny him to the office of the Board of
Review, which he did, taking back his
shameful accusation when he arrived
there. The Chicago Tribune of Wednes-
day had the following to say about the
matter:

TWO DIFFERENT STORIES.

From the Chicago Tribune, Aug. 20.
1901, page q:
Danger in Impure Water.
Dr. Reilly. acting Health Commits
sioner. thinks the existing prevalence
of typhoid fever in Chicago is due en-
tirely to bad lake water. Though the
Drainage Canal is open, the drinking
water still Is contaminated. The rec.
ords of the Health Department show
that an increase in typhoid cases al
ways follows season of heavy rains.
Dir. Reilly says the storms of June anu
the early part of July WASHED into the
lake enough pollution to fill the water
with disease germs. The rain and
wind of last sunday reproduced the
uphcalthful conditions. The only safe
course is to boil the water used for
drinking. The Health Department is
giving the usual warning to this effect
through the press. and will continue TO
do so during the danger period. This
is fairly effective among the people
who read the newspapers, but there Is
large portion of the community that
cannot be reached in this way. ana IL
is the portion most in need of such ad'
vice. DR.. Reilly would do well to de-
wise methods for reaching that ele.
ment. 1t might be advisable to send
officers through the stores and shops
in the poorer quarters to warn the peo'
ple to boil their water Every availn-
bile channel for reaching these people
who are the greatest sufferers from ~
pboid. should be used. The department
should ask priests and physicians 10
cooperate with It in instructing those
whom the newspapers do not reach.

THE KIDNAPPED MiLLiONAiRES.

The author of "The Kidnapped Mill
ionnires." the latest novel to attract
general attention, is Frederick uphnm
Adams. an inventor of some note. He
recently built a railroad train which
shattered all records from mile to one
hundred miles. 1t was built to avo'u
atmospheric resistance, and was popu.
larry known as the "cigar-shaped
train, or the "wind-spliter." Between
washington and Baltimore this train OF
seven ears attained the remarkable
speed of 1903 miles an hour.

The undeniable right, under the law,
of Cook County to tax all real estate
owned by railroads and not actually in
cluded In the right of way was con-
iirmed Wednesday by County Attorney
Sims In an opinion presented to the
Board of Review. The ruling Is in line
with the contentious of the City Coun-
ell Taxation Committee, which has
been unearthing railroad property that
has virtually escaped assessments.
Millions of dollars worth of real prop
erty, 1t Is said, may be put on the tax
books as a result of the application of
the ruling.
This opinion was prepared upon the
presentation of the report rendered us
by the Council committee said the
legal expert of the Board, "and upholds
