Enforce Pure Food Law.

A. F. Hit, state pure food inspec-
for. made Troy an official visit Saturday
and spent the day with local merchants
and butchers. Not only did Mr.. Hit
examine groceries and meats, but spent
some time testing scales and measures
Of various stores. He was well pleased
with the conditions in Troy, finding
little cause to complain. All butter
examined was found properly labeled
and in no case under weight. He
gave the merchants strict orders to
receive no butter not properly labeled
and in every instance to weigh every
mound Of butter brought in. In view
Of this butter makers will kindly take
notice and not blame the merchant if
he refuses to accept butter not strictly
I'D to the provisions of the law. Mr..
Hit examined all lines of groceries
and took away with him samples Of
catsup, spices, and colored cake sugar
to be analysed. Syrup not properly
labeled and formula not given was
placed on the blacklist and its sale
prohibited unless the manufacturer can
guarantee its purity and furnish the
necessary labels. Vinegar. cannot be
offered for sale unless the same is
stamped, so that consumers can see
what kind of vinegar they are getting
Meat, the inspector said, must not be
preserved with any Of the preparations
now being used, such as borax, boric
acid, salt peter and dye, and coal tar
dye. All these are illegal, and here
after criminal prosecution will follow
where these preparations are found.
In reference to this matter the pure
food commission, in their last Official
report, said. ,
Probably the most dangerous adul-
terant in meats, supposedly sold in the
fresh state, is the use of preparation:
known as freezem, preservaline, icehne
etc., which are diluted solutions o
formaldehyde or sulphurous acid, etc
Coal tar dyes are also used to give
meats the bright red color. A grea
amount of these anticipates were con
fscated and shipped without the state
being returned to the jobber or manu-
facturer."
Mr.. Hit tested the quart and gallol
measures, and found every merchan
in Troy supplied with ones OF the COZ
rect size. The scales used by IN
Troy business men were an exception
ally good lot, and when incorrect inval
iably weighed against the merchan,
To the News editor Mr.. Hit said:
is fact that too many merchants pei

should be cleaned often and wher

oil. The law is to be rigidly enforce
and the public is earnestly requisite
to cooperate with the officials to tn
end.

"moses" and "Aar on" Bring Good Price

The following from last Sunday S
Review ought to prove that it pays to
raise good cattle:
The Washington State college will
supply the show beef for one of the
Spokane markets next Christmas. The
college experiment farm has sold Mos
es" and Aaron" twin steers, for
Christmas show beef at price which
shows that it pays to raise and feed
blooded cattle in this country. While
common beef are selling at from $2.25
to $2.75 per hundred pounds, Spokane
marketmen have contracted to pay the
state collese 6 cents per pound, or
more than double the market price,
for these two steers, which have been
the pets OF the college farm hands and
the students in animal husbandry for
more than two years. The two steers
were two years old last summer. They
are fine specimens of cattle, and are
making record breaking growth.
They were shown to Governor Mead
and party when here last week, and at
tracted much interest and favorable
comment. Moses, the hornless steer,
weighs 1860, while Aaron weighs 1880.
I'VE expect to make them weigh
at least 1900 pounds each by Christ
mas" said Professor Elliott, who is the
head Of the department Of agriculture
in the state college. This will bring
the young steers among the heavy
weights" Of the country, for 4 year ole
steer weighing 14O0 pounds is consid-
cred big one," and a steer Of any
age weighing 1900 pounds is a mon
ster." These steers are from a Polleo
Durham bull and high grade Short
horn COW, and show the benefits o
blooded stock. They are easily KEEP
in prime condition, are easily handled
and make much larger cattle thai

Since the beginning of the war,
Japan has increased her debt from
$50 million dollars to 98l millions,
but of this amount she has on hand
probably as much as It's millions
unexpended. In the same time,
Russia's has increased from 1892
million to 300 million dollars.
Japan will probably receive from
Russia in payment for the mainte-
nance of prisoners of war about
hundred million and Russia must
borrow money for her immediate
needs at home. Japan, therefore,
seems to come out of the war in
better financial condition than Rus
