RULES FOR PACKERS.
Labels Must Tell the Whole Truth and
Nothing but the Truth.

ashington.-Further rulings in
connection with the enforcement OF
the meat inspection law after October
1st next were made public to-day by
the secretary of agriculture and give
an idea of what consumers are to ex-
pect hereafter when purchasing meat
products.
Anything savoring of false or de-
ceptive label will not be tolerated and
no picture, design or device which
gives any false Indication of origin or
quality will be permitted on any label
as for example the picture of pig ap-
pearing on label placed on beef prod
ucts, or the picture of chicken upon
the label of a veal or pork product.
Geographical names are allowed to
be used only with the words "cut,"
type" brand" or "style," as the case
may be, except on foods produced or
manufactured in the place, state, ter
ritory or country named. For in
stancestance, Virginia ham" must be
marked Virginia style ham," EN-
glish Drawn" must be English style
stance, Virginia ham" must be
"Westphalia style ham," The word
ham without prefix indicating the
species of animal is considered by the
department to be pork ham, but trim
mings removed from the ham and used
in the preparation of sausage or potted
ham, or when used alone, may be con-
sidered as "potted ham" or ham sau-
sage"
Frankfurter sausage no longer can
be known as such but must be called
"Frankfurter style sausage"
The rules clearly define what con-
stitutes pure lard, but prescribe that
substance composed of lard, stearin, or
other animal fat and vegetable oil,
must be labeled lard compound"
Among other restrictions are the fol-
lowing: Picnic hams can not be called
hams" but may be called "picnics,
or picnic shoulders" little pig sau-
sage" or "pigmy sausage" extract OF
beef must be actually made from beef,
and veal loaf can not be called such
unless the meat used is veal only.

Alcohol as a Fuel.

We have in ethyl alcohol an ideal
fuel-colorless, limpid. of moderate
boiling point, about SO degrees below
that of water, non-freezing, burning
without smoke, mixing with water in
all proportions, and therefore it's flame
extinguished by water, cleanly, drying
OFF completely when spilled, not at
tracing rubber gaskets or packings,
and noncorrosive for metal tanks and
holders. The fact that it's flame is
blush, or so-called nonluminous,
means that the fame is almost devoid
OF free carbon particles, with their
intense heat radiating power, fact
of considerable Importance When
gasoline or heavy oils are burning, the
flame, loaded with free carbon or SCOT,
radiates heat to such degree that it
is not possible to approach near the
confagration. and combustible sur
roundings are readily fired by pure
radiation OF heat. The production of
alcohol on large scale is simple,
and the raw materials already exist
in considerable variety. All saccha-
rine or starchy growths are available.
Saccharine wastes are now largely
used in Cuba for alcohol production.
This alcohol will, in a properly or
ganized engine, equal, volume for vol
ume, gasoline now sold at much
higher price in producing power,
says Casters Magazine. Even in
the immediate future, then, it is
evident that alcohol has a large field
of usefulness. The farmer need not
depend on wood, coal or oil for his
power. His agricultural wastes will
furnish it. His fields need only re-
ceive the sunshine and be given suf-
ficient water, and thence any crop
yielding starch or sugar. however un-
marketable otherwise, may be made
the source of power. light and heat

Detecting Tellurium.

The most reliable test for detecting
even traces of tellurium in the pres.
ence OF much pyrites is as follows:
Thoroughly oxidize the pyrites with
strong nitric acid, evaporate to dry
ness. take up with strong hydrochloric
acid, boil, dilute with water and filter
off the insoluble. Now pass through
the boiling hltrate rapid stream OF
sulphur dioxide to saturatIon. The
tellurium and gold, II any. will be pre-.
cipitated In the metallic state. Filter
and wash completely. Transfer the
tellurium to an evaporating dish, evap.
crate just to dryness and then add
strong sulphurlc acid and warm gradu.
ally. II tellurium is present, violet
red coloration will develop rapidly.

Bacteria in Milk.

1t is suggestive, if not in fact a
cheering, sign of the times that in the
published lists of exhibits at the nu-
merous county fairs round about
there appear so many inventions and
devices for the better care and hand
ling of milk. It was the statement of
a member of the state department of
agriculture, recently publicly made,
that one-fourth of the farmers send
their milk to the butter and cheese
factories with enough bacteria to
contaminate the supply contributed by
the other three-fourths. The issue
of cleanliness and healthfulness in
milk supplied direct to the consumer
is an exceedingly vital one, but one
also to which the average consumer
does not give sufficient concern. With
the question of the treatment of milk
the inventors of appliances, the scien-
fists and authorities must deal; the
question of cleanliness is simpler and
one with which all with ordinary in
telligence may deal. And lack of
cleanliness is the great failing on the
average farm. Even in the cleanest
possible modes of milking by hand
there are 300 germs to the cubic cen
timeter of milk, and in the average
milk there are 10000 to 10000, while
the number in cases of unclean milk
sometimes rises as high as 100000.
Nine-tenths of the foreign matter con.
tanned in the ordinary can of milk
may be kept out without expense by
the exercise of care. But as there is
no effect without cause, so in this
multitude of inventions for the bet
ter handling of milk there may be
traced growing desire on the part
of the farmers to meet the demands
for improvement, says the Troy
Times. That the demand is appar
ent and growing in popular vigor
there is not the remotest doubt.

FAILS TO SAVE HIMSELF
BY BLAMING HIS WIFE
AL MASON SENTENCED TO THREE
YEARS IN PENiTENTiARY
Convicted on Charge of Grand Lar
ceny He Attempted to Prove That
His Spouse Was in Reality Guilty
of the Crime

After just five minutes of consulta'
ton yesterday morning jury in Judge
Smiths department of the superior
court returned a verdict of guilty in the
case of Al Mason, charged with granc
larceny.
The Mason case has been followed
closely by many residents of Los An
geles because of the fact that wher
arrested Mason laid all the blame Of
the theft upon his wife,. and at his re-
quest she was arrested at San Bernar-
dino and brought to Los Angeles, where
at a preliminary examination she was
acquitted.
Mason's trial was held Tuesday. Ac.
cording to the evidence brought out
Mason had been hired at a South
Spring street boarding house as hall
sweeper. His wife was the chamber
maid at the place, and it was through
her efforts that her husband was given
the position.
On the morning of August 90 one of
the boarders left a purse containing
$140 under her pillow while she went
to breakfast The chambermaid did
not enter the room, and within ten
minutes the money and Mason had dis
appeared.
1t was proved that Mason took the
money TO woman named Baker ana
asked her to keep it for him, but later
she accused him of the theft and re-
ported it to the police. Mason fled.
taking the money and his little boy with
him. He was arrested and brought
back to Los Angeles for trial, where
upon he promptly had a fit of heroics
and at last blurted out in a martyr
like tone that he had shielded his wife
as long as he could and that he would
do it no longer. He accused her of
taking the money.
The woman was arrested, but was
released upon examination.
When the attorneys were arguing the
case yesterday, the attorney for Mason
mentioned that his client had shielded
his wife up until the last moment. At
this Mason sniveled and tried to find
a whimper but as he was wiping his
eyes on the sleeve of his coat he caught
sight of some Of his wife's friends and
he desisted.
The verdict was returned within FIVE
minutes and Mason waived time for
sentence. He was sentenced to three
years Imprisonment in San Quentin
prison.
Just before he was taken back to his
cell Mason asked to be allowed to say
something to the court.
ALTHOUGH you have sentenced me,
am an innocent man." he said. my
wife got rid of her other two husbands
and she has made good her threat that
she would get me out of the way"

One of the most interesting programs
ever given by the Ruskin Art club
was given yesterday morning in Blan-

of the foremost artists of the day, was
the main feature of the program. His
lecture consisted of "reminiscences of
the celebrated sculptor, Augustus Saint
Gaudens, and his brother Louis. and
as Monsieur de Quelin was intimately
acquainted with Saint Gaudens for
many years, his "reminiscences were
most personal and intimate.
Frederick MacMonnies was for some
time working in the studio of the
Gaudens brothers and it was his duty
to carry clay to the sculptors. One
day when alone MacMonnies fell to
playing with the plastic clay and then
it was discovered that he was genius.
He was sent to school and his talen!
is now recognized by all patrons of art.
