North Dakota Solves the AduIteration
ProbIAno

North Dakota seems to have found
the key to the question, How shall
we protect the people from frauds in
manufactured products?" A new law
has recently gone into effect designed
to make it impossible to deceive PEG
pie into buying inferior and adulter
ated paint under the impression that
they are getting real paint, viz: pure
white lead and hnseed 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 to buy whichever they
wished.
Under this plan, If any one wishes
to buy a mixture of rock-dust, ground
quartz and other cheap elements
which are found in many paints and
sctalled white leads" no one can
object; for they do it with their eyes
open. But if they prefer genuine
white lead and 1inseed 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.

'FRlsco's CROP OF GENIUS.

Mrs. Patterson worked in Harvard in connection
with the Grey herbarium for several years before
coming to the agricultural department at Wash

time Mrs Patterson has done an immense amount
of good for the people of this country.
Nothing in the line of plants can be imported
into the United States unless it has first passed
her inspection, and been pronounced absolutely
free from all fungus growth or disease
If such case of disease is discovered on
certain plant the latter may be sent to quaran-

disease; or if it is too far gone the plant is i'm
