Condemns French Peas.

The following letter received by
Morris Sommer, from Pure Food In
spector Mcpherson, will be of inter-
est to all grocery merchants in this
community:
Boise, Idaho, Dec. 9, 1903.
Mr.. Norris Sommer,
Weiser, Idaho.
Dear Sir
Your letter of December 9Th duly
received and contents noted.
l would say in regard to the
French peas known as Country Club,
that i have had an analysis made of
same and find them colored with
copper, and, as | understand it, one
selling them or having them in their
possession would be lisble to prose
cution. do not wish to take any
undue advantage of any groceryman,
but would say for your information
and for the information of the peo-
pie in your vicinity, that after having
about 20 samples of French peas
analyized, / find that there are none
of them that will stand the test Of
the law. In fact, | don't believe
there are any French peas sold but
.
what are colored with copper and are
deleterious to health.
Thanking you for your kindly in
terest, remain,
| Yours very truly,
A. McPHERsoN,
Pure Food Commissioner for Idaho.
