murder of infants and adults by tricky
makers of food, drink and drugs to go
on about long enough. Duty to oneself,
family and nation demands that every
man and woman join in an organized
movement to clear our people from
this blight. You may not be able to go
personally to Washington to impress
your Congressman. but you can, in a
most effective way tell him by letter
how you desire him to represent you.
Remember the Congressman is in
Congress to represent the people from
his district and If a goodly number of
citizens express their views to him, he
secures a very sure guide TO duty. Re
member also that the safety of the
people is assured by insisting that the
will of the people be carried out, and
not the Vaccinations of the few for
selfish interests.
This pure food legislation is pure
movement of the people for public pro-
lection. 1t will be opposed only by
those who fatten their pockets by de-
ceiving and injuring the people. There
fore, If your Representative in Con
gress evades his patriotic duty hold
him to strict accountability, and If
necessary demand equitable and hon
est service This is a very different
condition than when faction demands
class legislation of the Congressman.
Several years ago the butter interests
of the country demanded legislation to
kill the oleomargarine industry and by
power of organization forced class leg
islation really unworthy of free reo-
pie. Work people wanted beef suet
butter because it was cheap and better
than much unclean milk butter, but the
dairy interests organized and forced
the legislation. The law should have
provided that pkgs. of oleomargarine e
bear the statement Of ingredients and
then let people who desire purchase II

selection of food

selection of food.
Many pure food bills have been in
troduced and some passed by State leg
islatures; many have been offered to
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 (the re-
tail grocer, and. guided by this expert
ence have prepared a bill for submis-
sion to Congress which is intended to
accomplish the desired ends, and mas
much as citizen of the u. S. has a
right to food protection even when he
enters another State, 1t 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. governs the retailer who may
open a barrel and sell the food in
small quantities. When he puts the
goods into a 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
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 1t
upon the maker. where 1t 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 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 a 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 nermtted to use
| food accurately.

ELECTED THEIR OFFICERS
stockmen Elect Same Officers and
Adopt Some Very Strong R.so-
lutions Wednesday Night

The largest and most enthusiastic
gathering of stock men ever assem-
bled in South Dakota met at the
hall of the Mitchell Club Wednesday
evening. Every available inch of
standing room was taken and many
we're unable to get inside the room.
President Erion suggested that as
many members would 10 home before
the Thursday evening meeting that
it would be wise to set aside tile
rules aud elect officers while so many
were present. This was agreed to
and the election of officers was taken
up which resulted in the unanimous
election Of the following officers: Geo.
F.. McEathron, of Huron, declined to
longer act as vice president in charge
of the cattle department. as he had
gone out of the cattle business. The
officers for the ensuing year are as
follows:
President. M. Erion, Mitchell.
Secretary and treasurer-James w.
Wilson, Brooktngs.
The vice-presidents selected to rep
resent the different lines of stock are
as follows:
Cattle-Albert Hill, Alexandria.
Swine-P. w. Peterson, Vermill-
ion.
Horses-J. NJ. Dunmire. Scotland.
Sheep. II. Hall, Ordway.
Poultry-Geo. e. Tuck WgtertoWn.
President Erion and Mr.. Peterson
we're called for and expressed their
appreciation for the honor that the
association had conferred upon them.
Mr.. Peterson said that the way YOU
treat us is an expression of your APP
probation for what we have done.
Mr.. Wilson was called for and he said
that it was a great honor to be sec
Rotary and treasurer of this associa.
tion, but he said that it means a lot
of work and that he would be great
