TO HIT BEEF TRUST
ON SANITARY LINES
Continued From First Page.

had the matter Of inspection for the
home markets under consideration for a
long time and has wanted to have radi-
cal legislation enacted. The Beveridge
bill is the result of conferences be-
tween the author, Secretary Wilson,
Chief Melvin of the bureau of animal
Industry, Commissioner of Corporations
Garfield and the special commissioners
who investigated sanitary conditions at
Chicago.
The law now in force provides for
compulsory ante-mortem inspection Of
meat--that is, of cattle on the hoof-
and all animals Of slaughter before they
are killed, and makes the postmortem
or carcass inspection optional The
proposed new law makes the post
norton examination compulsory. The
carcasses Of all animals found to be
sound, healthful and fit for human food
are to be tagged as "inspected and
passed. All carcasses Or parts, of
are to be tagged as "inspected and
condemned" and the inspectors are to
be empowered to superintend the de-
struction Of all unsound meat products
! The inspection is to extend to the can
ming and packing of all meat products
| intended for interstate shipment, as
we'll as the original carcass.
Aims at Clean Plants.
It is prescribed also that all slaugh
tablisim ner shall be maintained in % 8
sanitary manner in accordance with
rules to be laid down by the secretary
Of agriculture.
The penal sections Of the bill provid,
for fines not exceeding 100000, or i'm
prisonment Of not more than two years
or both fine and imprisonment, for any
person, firm or corporation violating tn
influence inspectors thru offers of money
or otherwise, fine not exceeding $40,
900 or imprisonment not exceeding thre,
years is provided; and inspectors &C
cepting money or valuables intended tt
influence them are to be subject tt
disqualification to hold any office unde
the government and to fine Of $1,000
or three years imprisonment.
The present inspection of meat TO
export is conducted at the government
expense. It is proposed to make tn
packers pay the inspection fees on mea
intended for home consumption. It i
estimated the cost will be about 5 cent
for each carcass, which would make tn
total expense of inspection to the pack
ers of the country between 81 100000
and 100000 annually.
Hard Contest in Sight.
About all that is expected at tn
present session of congress is repor
on the bill by the committee havin
it in charge. There is strong prob
ability of a hard fight against the meas

Two or three other sticks are then
fashioned of the same size and pat

cells, Mr.. Doolittle has a little pan of
beeswax kept hot by means of a
lamp; also a cup of water Seating
himself before a table he is now ready
for work Taking one of these cell
forming sticks he dips it into the
water after which he plunges it about
nine-sixteenths of an inch into the
melted wax. He then lifts it up and
twirls it at an angle (waxed end low

dips it again, but not quite so deep
and twirls it as before. He proceeds
thus until the cup is dipped seven or
eight times, but each time dipping it
less depth or within one-thirty second
inch of the previous dipping The
main thing is to secure a cup having
a thick heavy bottom, but which will
have a thin and delicate knife-edge at
the top or at that point at which the
bees are supposed to begin their work
After the last dipping is cooled a
slight pressure of the thumb loosens
the cell-cup slightly. It is then dipped
once more. and before it is cool It is

Forming Queen Cells
from Cell Cups
BY A. 1. ROOT.

The use of cell cups permits the
raiser of queens to produce more
queens than he otherwise would. The
cups are fastened on the hive inside,
as illustrated here. The larvae are
placed in the cups and the bees ex-
tend the queen cells downward, as they
would do naturally OF them A. |.
Root says;
Many times when an apiarist is
going through his yard, he can cut
out embryo cell cups such as the bees
make. These can be utilized at some
future time for the purpose of graft
ing. But such cells after they are
gathered are exceedingly frail. irreg-
ular in shape, will not bear much
handling; and most of the time one
cannot find enough. Mr. Doolittle was
the man that first conceived the idea
of making artificial cell-cups that
should not only be regular in form,
but of such construction as to stand
any reasonable amount of handling
Contrary to what one might expect,
such cells are just as readily accepted
by the bees as those they make in the
good, old-fashioned way; and what is
of considerable importance, they can
be made in any quantity and by any.

RATE REGULATION IN TEXAS.
States Railroad Commission Has a
Tremendous Power.

At the first regular session of the
twenty-third Texas legislature a law
was passed, approved April 3, 1891.
providing for the establishment of
railroad commission to be composed of
three citizens appointed by the gov
eraor with power to regulate the rail
roads of the state and TO enforce all
the laws of the state pertaining to rail-
roads, says the Reader.
This body was given power and was
required to adopt all necessary rates;
to correct abuses; to prevent eXtor-
ton and unjust discrimination to
adopt classifications uniform through
out the state, but to fix different rates.

fix joint rates.
1t was also to be a tribunal to hear
complaints from any interested parties
and to call witnesses, take dispositions,
administer oaths and punish for con

books of all transportation companies
(which were also placed under it's ju'
isdiction, though street railways were

ways in the state and to prescribe a
system of bookkeeping, with annual
statistical reports.
Power to insist upon the mainten.
ance of tracks, depots and safety de-
vices, upon the running of trains on
time and upon the furnishing of empty
cars when required was also given.
No rate can be made without an
open hearing in which the railroads,
their lawyers and. any person who
wishes may appear and show evidence
to prove what the result of any change
may be. But the rate, once made,
goes into effect in 20 days and may
only be set aside upon suit of the rail-
road company or other party dissatis-
fed proving in a court of competent
jurisdiction in Travis county that the
rates complained of are unreasonable
and unjust.
Schedules of all rates made are sent
to each railroad and must be printed

in conspicuous place at each depot.
"Extortion' and unjust discrimina-
tion" are defined by the same statute
and forbidden under heavy fines.
All violations OF the laws by rail-

ney general for prosecution.

ENGINE BATHED IN GLUTEN.
Looked as if 1t Had Passed Through
Heavy SnoWstorm.

When the engine of the Pennsyl-
yania train arrived at the station it
looked as though it had passed through
snowstorm or -four mill, says a dis.
patch from Riverton, N. j. 1t was
plastered from stack to tender with
white, sticky stuff, and the fireman,
Irving Perrine, looked like a snow
man, with streaks of crimson flowing
from sundry cuts in his hands and
face. Engineer George Willitts had
escaped the white drenching and was
not hurt.
When the train approached the
crossing at Fish House, Willitts saw a
team approaching, the driver trying to
beat the engine. He shut his eyes as
he saw that smash was inevitable, and
next instant it came. The wagon was
loaded with gluten for a starch factory
at Fish House, and the stuff was sent
into a thousand directions as the bar.

wagon. j. B. Bissett, was hurled from

With modest bushes that l might;
I'd thought l would, but hung my head
And hurried to get out of sight.

She sold the kiss that had bought:
Her lips looked very, very sweet.
And I'd been forced to bid a lot.
She stood there In her booth prepared

To catch her warmly to my breast
