Many pure food bills have been in

legislatures; many have. been offered
to Congress, but all thus far seem OBJ

fine what the people shall and shall not

deprive the common citizen of his per-

prepared foods in the world, have nat

food protection even when he enters

the govt take control of this matter
and provide a national law to govern
all the States. A copy OF the bill is
herewith reproduced.
Sec. governs the maker whether the
food is put up in small packages sealed,
Or i'll barrels, boxed or otherwise.
Sec. = governs the retailer, who may
open barrel and sell the food in
small quantities. When he puts the
goods into a paper bag he must also
enclose a printed copy Of the statement
of the maker which was affixed TO the
original pkg. and inasmuch as the re-
taller cannot undertake to guarantee
the statement of ingredients he must
publish the statement of the makers
and add his own name and address as
a guarantee of his selling the food as
it is represented to him which relieves
the retailer Of responsibility Of the
truth of the statement and throws it
upon the maker, where it properly be-
longs.

the food is pure" is not satisfactory.
Candy may contain pure" white clay

ful. Syrups may contain pure" glu-
cose and yet be quite digestible aud
even beneficial. Tomato catsup may
contain a small amount of salicyiic or
boracic acid as a necessary preserva-
tive, which may agree with one and be
harmful to another.
Wheat -four may contain A portion of
corn -four and really be improved.
Olive oil may be made Of cotton seed
