More Chemists Needed.
Additional chemists have been as
signed to DR.. Wiley. and they have been
busily engaged in Analysing samples of
imported foods. with the result that they
have found that manufacturers abroad
are annually sending millions of dollars
worth of material to this country which
they could not sell at home because Of
adulteration or impurity. Hereafter the
food will have to be pure and If it can
not sell at its place of manufacture It
will not be allowed to land in this
countrv
The law can be made weapon of re-
taliation to disastrous extent, accord
Ing to the experts, and there is hardly
a country in the world now which can
trump up charges against American ex-
ports for the purpose of shutting them
out from competition with domestic
manufacture that cannot be hit back
by a rigid application of the new law
The shutting out of frankfurters is only
single illustration of the manner in
which the law can be applied.
$IO,Ooo,ooo a Month.
The imports Of drugs, foods. and drinks
into the United States amount to $780,
900, 900 q month. in round numbers. A
little over half of this amount is repre-
sented by drugs. the remainder being di-
vided among wines. beers, provisions
vegetables, and fish. When the law be-
comes generally known it will doubtless
cause CONSERVATION abroad and among
importers IN the United States.
DR.. Wiley called attention to the fact
that It would cost the Government little
to put the law into operation, as there
were few ports of entry for the foreign
products affected, the principal one be-
ing New York
AS further preparation to enforcing
the new law, Dr. Wiley said, the De-
partment OF Agriculture already has its
special agents gathering data as to
the methods of manufacturers in Europe,
and they have acquired comprehensive
evidence on which to proceed.

Three months ago we sent on to
Washington City a petition, numerous.
ly signed by citizens of Lafayette and
johnson counties, praying for an in
crease of mail facilities on the two
routes lying between Lexington and
w arrensburg. In the petition it was
set forth that Mr.. Sela Hudson, the
present contractor, would supply the
demand for the inconsiderable sum of
nifty dollars per annum. 1t was also
set forth in the petition that there
would be no increase of travel in
supplying the offices at Renick's Mil.
Columbus, Air, Moss and Tabo, with a
seml.weekly mail. The postmaster.
general acting, as we suppose, on the
presumption that as there was no in.
crease of travel there would be no
increase of labor, has ordered Mr..
Hudson to supply the offices named
with asemi-weekly mail without adding
anything to the compensation allowed
him for weekly services.
