The popular idea of cannibal seems
to be about as far removed from reali-

report of A. E. Pratt. distinguished
English naturalist, who has just re-
turned from two years sojourn
among cannibal tribes in British New
Guinea.
During his stay among the aborig-
ines of Papua, New Guinea, where
Mr.. Pratt had gone in search Of but

fashionably attired when their hair is
dressed and a string Of beads is hung
around their necks. A laundry would
starve to death in New Guinea.
Hunting and fishing are followed by
the Papuan with primitive ingenuity.
The fishing is accomplished by means
of net which is made by spiders.
When a Fapuan wants a net he first

Quite a number of our country
girls are grading peaches at VIM
Turner's packing shed this week.
Mr. W R Turner had a consider
able loss in his peaches this sum-
mer, on account of SO many. of
them being specked with hail,
which caused them to rot.
Mr. Joel Thomas has q position
as foreman at DR. Rambo's peach
orchard, near Marietta.
I notice that the cotton specu-
lators are trying to regulate the
price of cotton to 81 cents. They
claim that If regulated to that
price that the manufacturers will
be more able to buy. But 10 cents
is little enough for the producer.
When the turner's products get to
where he can make something on
them, there is always something
TO kick him down. Now if the
farmers will stick together they
can get the worth Of their labor,
otherwise they will not.
Grier's Almanac said that the
moon fulled the 9th, at A o'clock
and 3 minutes m; but they tell
me that it took until late Satur-
day night for it to get full, that
Is, at Turner's packing shed.
According to the old saying, We
will have plenty of rain during

5000 crates'of fire peaches last

hOuLTERATloN OF FOOD.
Pory Laboratories Expected to Rails,
Standard of Imports.

PorI Laboratories Expected to Raise
Standard of Imports.
In urging that the German govern
Inent adopt measures TO prevent the
importation of American canned fruits
because they are aduterated, the Ger
man commercial bodies are actuated
rather by a desire to restrict the for
eign competition than by any regard
for the welfare of the people who may
consume these fruits, says the Bos-
ton Transcript. The exports Of Amer
lean fruits to Germany nave attained
such large proportions within the last
few years that the German fruit grow
ers believe that their own Pre- action
tests in the prohibition of American
imports, and if they can bar out cam
ned fruits on the theory that they are
adulterated, they can in some measure
justify their asking for prohibition.
The retaliatory measures adopted by
the United States have some justifica-
ton in the fact that while they are
retaliatory they are made in the In
terest of American consumers as well
as producers, the main lutd OI orr
pure-food law being not the prohibit
ton Of imports but the exclusion of
those which are deleterious to health.
The establishment of port labora-
tories in the United States, it is be-
heved. will result in raising the stand
ard of imports of food supplies to this
country. When the pure-food law went
into effect, more than a year ago, it
was found that % per cent of the
imports Of foods and drinks were so
adulterated as to be inadmissible UNI
der the provisions Of the law. 1t is
estimated that now the percentage OF
imports which are admissible has been
raised to s. per cent. but there is
need of examination Of cargoes at the
port of entry IN order that products
which are properly admissible may be
examined quickly and entered at once.
The character Of adulteration Of food
products which is revealed by chelni-
cal examination is the best justifica-
ton of the pure-food law. Whatever
may be the reta liatory effect Of the
new departure of the department Of
agriculture. it cannot bat he II benefit
in raising the standard Of imports.
