The Building Boom.

The Building Boom. =
Washburn has not experienced
such building boom for years
as it is having at present. This

we understand they are seriously
considering the proposition.
Work has begun on the Palace
drug store addition.

Many pure food bills have been in
troduced and some passed by State leg
islatures; many have been offered 10
Congress, but all thus far seem objec-
tionable.
1t has seemed difficult for politicians
to formulate a satisfactory bill that
would protect the common people and
yet avoid harm TO honest makers and
prevent endless trouble to retailers.
No govt commission or officer has the
right to fix food standards" to define
what the people shall and shall not eat,
for what agrees with one may not
agree with another, and such act would
deprive the common citizen OF his
personal liberty. The Postum Cereal
Co., Ltd, perhaps the largest makers
of prepared foods in the world, have
naturally a close knowledge OF the
needs of the people and the details OF
the business of the purveyors 1.-THE re-
til grocer, and guided by this expert
ence have prepared bill for submits
sion TO Congress which is intended to
accomplish the desired ends. and mas
much as a citizen of the u S. has
right to food protection even when he
enters another State, it Is deemed
proper that 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 in barrels, boxes or other
wise
Sec. 2 governs the retailer who may
open a barrel and sell the food in
small quantities When he puts the
goods into paper bag he must also
inclose a printed copy of the statement
OF the maker which was affixed TO the
original pkg, and inasmuch as the
retailer 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 IL
upon the maker, where it properly be-
longs.
The remaining sections explain them
selves.
The Postum Cereal Co., Ltd, for ex-
ample, have from the beginning OF its
existence printed on the outside Of each
and every pkg. of Postum and Grape
Nuts food a truthful and exact state
ment of what the contents were made
of in order that the consumer might
know precisely what he or she was
eating. A person desiring to buy, for
instance, strictly pure fruit jelly and
willing to pay the price has right TO
expect not only an equivalent for the
cost, but further right to certainty
as to what he eats. Or he may be will
ing to buy at less cost jelly made
part of fruit juices, sugar and por-
ton of glucose. But he must be sup
piled with truthful information of the
ingredients and be permitted to use
his personal liberty to select his own
food accurately
