AGAINST POLISHING RIcf.

The Washington, ID. C.. Tribune
of recent date has tho following
to say concerning rice:
AN important action has been
taken by the Department of Agri-
culture in informing the New
Orleans Board of Trade that
polishing rice is violation of the
pure food law and that it must
either be abandoned in the future
or the polished rice must be la
beled so as to show what it is
coated with. As a matter of fact,
unpublished rice-that is, the rice
upon which the inner hull has been
left. is much more healthful and
nutritious than that which has had
the hull removed and has been
covered with coating of paraffin,
glucose, starch and tale to bring
it to the whiteness which fashion
demands. The polishing process
has been defended on the ground
that it preserves rice from attacks
by the weeviIs. The Department
of Agriculture denies this strenu-
ously and forbids the practice in
the future as putting into the rice
unhealtkful materials. The de-
cision will be great relief to the
farmers and add to their profits
that of the considerable sum which
has heretofore been expended 10
polishing and coating the grain. /"

to the cemetery. each daughter
carrying a wreath or boquet OF
beautiful flowers. On arriving at
the cemetery they formed a circle,
at the head of which was Rev. r.
A. Holloway. of the M. Z. church.
and surrounding the circle were
the members of David Pierson
Camp 1908. U. c. v. Col. w. L.
Smylie was the master of cere-
monies and called on Rev. r. A.
Holloway to invoke the blessing
of the Great Commander upon
this meeting. After fervent and
inspiring prayer by this divine
the daughters sang Nearer. My
God. to Thee.
The next on program was an
address by Commander Geo. A.
Kelly, but owing to his absence.
Major Will A. Strong made a
short and feeling talk deploring
the absence of his commander.
The ladies then sang "Over

Every part of the program was
beautifully and impressively car
out. Every one seemed to re-
alize the solemnity Of the
occasion.
The sudden, severe illness of
Col. Smylie, Who had to be car
ried home before the close ofthe
exercises, was source of keen
regret to both daughters and
veterans.
