North Dakota Solves the Aduitera-
ton Problem.

North Dakota seems TO have found
the key TO the question, How shall
we protect the people from frauds in
manufactured products?" plan
which is applicable TO foods. bever-
ages, materials used I'm the arts. etc.
new law has recently gone into ef-
feet designed 10 make II impossible
to deceive people into buying inferior
and adulterated paint under the i'm
preston that they are getting real
paint. viz; pure white lead and lin
seed oil.
The North Dakota lawmakers did
not attempt TO absolutely prohibit
the inferior pigments. or mixtures OF
pigments. They adopted the slogan.
Let the label tell" and then left to
the people 20 buy whichever they
wished
Under this plan. If any one wishes
to buy mixture of rock-dust. ground
quartz and other cheap elements
which are found in many paints and
so-called white leads" no one can
object; for they do # with their eyes
open. But if they prefer genuine
white lead and linseed oil. they can
be sure of getting it, for none but
the genuine article can bear a label
which says pure white lead"
In all other States mixtures are Of
ten sold as pure white lead which
contain little-sOmetimes no-real
white lead.
1t would seem that were this same
principle applied TO food. beverages
and all other prepared articles, where
deception is practiced upon the buy
er. the question would be solved. 1t
would leave us free to buy what we
pleased, but would protect us from
unwittingly buying what we did not
want
