Washington, d. c., July BY direc-
ton of the president, Secretary of
Agriculture Wilson today issued an
official statement concerning the new
system of meat inspection to be i'm
mediately put into effect. The state
ment is intended to restore public con-
fidence at home n abroad in canned
meat and products of the American
packing institutions. 1t reads:
Not Much Disease.
American live stock is the healthi-
est in the world. The great ranges of
the west produce herds of cattle in
which the percentage of disease is re-
markably small. The federal govern
ment is steadily reducing, by approved
scientific methods, this small percent
age. The inspection of animals before
and at the time of slaughter has been
thorough.
Department Was Hampered.
at is true the department thereto
fore lacked power and money to pro-
vide efficient supervision of the meth.
DDS of preparing canned meat and farm
products, but legislation just effected
provides this department with ade-
quate law and ample money to carry
it into effect.
From Pasture to Plant.
THE supervision Inc inspection will
be extended from the pasture to the
packing plant, and federal stamps upon
the can will be a guarantee, not only
of the h~ealthfulness of the animal, but
also that the product is prepared under
sanitary surroundings, with the addi-
ton of no deleterious chemicals or
preserves in any product"

Kansas City, Mo, July 1.-THE court
of appeals today unanimously reversed
the conviction of William Kessells,
saloonist at st. Joseph, convicted of
violating the state law ordering sa.
looms to keep closed on Sunday. By
Judge Ellison's opinion, all the judges
concurrlng, the legislature has given
to second-class cities special exclusive
jurisdiction over dramshops. The state
laws hence cannot apply.
Will Knock Lid Off.
st. Joseph has no Sunday closing
ordinance. Lawyers in the court room
on hearing the decision, said it would
take the Sunday lid off everywhere in
Missouri, excepting st. Louis and Kan
sas City, but further investigation in
dicates that st. Joseph alone is af-
fected.
