LEGISLATIVE AMENDMENTS
MADE TO PURE FOOD LAWS
Sale of Adulterated Foods Doomed to
be Discontinued in Minnesota more
Pure Food Laws Enacted.

The recent legislature passed
several laws and amendments to
existing laws which affect the
manufacture and sale Of foods in
this state. The attention Of the
parties Interested is called to the
following new laws:
Chapter 204 gives the COM
missioner and his employees au
thority to seize any unwholesome
food or dairy products or in his
or their discretion to render the
same unsala BILE for use as food.
Chapter 424 authorizes the
commissioner to formulate rul-
ings req uiring certain labels on
food products for the purpose of
securing uniformity between the
food laws of this state and the
laws of the Federal government.
Chapter 455 provides for the
inspection of canning factories
and fixes a grade for minnesota
standard" canned goods. 1t pro.
vides that an Inspector of the
department must be present
while the goods are being packed.
The expense of such inspection
is to be borne by the Gamer.
Chapter l24 provides that all
ice cream manufactured and sold
within the state must contain
not less than twelve per cent by
weight of butterfat, and mu It
not be colored to make the art
icle appear better than it really
is. The use of all injurious in
gradients is prohibited IN its
manufacture.
Chapter 1888 provides for the
inspection of concentrated COM
mercial foodstpffs. This is the
famous "stock food bill" which
caused so much discussion dur
ing it's consideration.
Chapter 421 is the new paint
law which requires that the true

Amendments to the present
laws are as follows:
Chapter 237 prohibits the sale
of adulterated spices. Hereto
fore adulterated spices have been
sold when labeled "Mixture and
Adulterated." 49,.
Chapter 258 includes among
prohibited ingredients in food
stuffs coal tar dye and saccharin.
Chapter 337 amends the pres
ent milk and cream license law
so that parties keeping not more
than three COWS are exempted
from the provisions of the law.
Heretofore the exemption has
been one COW.
Chapter 347 reduces the re-
quired percentage of acetic vim
egar from 4.5 per cent to 4 per
cent. The latter is the standard
set by the Federal authorities.
Under Chapter 424 rulings will
be issued which will secure uni
formity between the label provi-
sions of the state and Federal
laws. An article labeled to CON-
ply With the Federal pure food
and drugs act should be allowed
on sale within the state without
further label requirements pro-
vided that it does not contain in
gradients specifically prohibited
by our state laws. Additional
state req uirements only tend to-
confuse the manufacturer and
adds to the cost of production
which must be borne by the con-
sumer without giving him added
protection.

NO FARMERS EXCURSION.

The Forum is authority for the statement that there
will be excursions to the North Dakota Agricultural
College this has been the rule for the past
decade.
AS result of the anti-railroad legislation last winter
by the North Dakota legislature, the railroads have de-
cided to cut out all special rates. and this hits the A. G.
excursions.
This information was received from President Worst
of the A. c. in letter from St. Paul to Dean Sheppard
Enroute to Europe President Worst stopped St. Paul
to investigate the situation and if the excursions
would be continued He met with flat refusal the
part of the roads.
1t explained to him that the excursions not
cut off through any antagonsm to the college, but be-
of the general plan to make excursion rates
reductions in the states where there had been rate es
laton
The excursions started ten years ago by the offer
of Pres. j. J. Hill of the Great Northern after adj
dress to the farmers at the Tr-State Grain Growers
convention in Fargo to bring fifty farmers from each
county to the A. c. After the first years with
the excursions he decided to continue them Free which
was done for few years and later nominal charge
made merely enough to the operating expenses of
the train. The Northern Pacific also charged small
sum for the purpose.
The excursions have served great purpose in estab
fishing better relations between the farmers Of the state
and the college and the members of the faculty. From
5OO to 5000 farmers have annually visited the expert
ment station and have gotten ideas of how to work
Many became interested and sent their and daugh
ers to the college and the plan has been the best adver
tisement possible for the college,
