THE DANGER OF COLO STORAGE
Interesting Experiments BY DIR. Har-
vey w. Wiley.

Washington Especially DIR. Har-
vey W. Wiley, chief OF the Chemistry
Bureau of the Department of Agri-
culture, and the governments pure
food expert, gave much interesting
testimony concerning the deteriora-
tion of foodstuffs in cold storage be-
fore the House Committee on Agri-
culture, whose hearings on the Agri-
| cultural Appropriation Bill have just
been made public.
Two cold storage warehouses are
at DR.. Wiley's disposal in Washing
ton, and he gave the results he has
attained by experiments with all
sorts of foodstuffs.
milk begins to deteriorate right
away, and so does cream" said DR.
Wiley. Eggs also begin to deter
iorate Immediately. Fruit is inn
proved, and sometimes continues to
improve, for three months. Meat
improves up to about six or eight
weeks, but after three months for
meat you can see that It has reached
the maximum, and then 1t begins to
go down. ! do not caro- how hard
it is frozen"
Eject of Freezing.
When asked for a further expla-
nation of the deterioration of meat
frozen in cold storage, DR.. Wiley
said
I'VE find that meats do not taste
as we'll and they do not smell as
we'll, and every time the jury can
pick that which has been kept over
three months. Take our quail. We
have quail year old and we have
fresh quail cooked at the same
time. We cook them just alike, and
you can distinguish between them,
first by their looks. and then by
smell and taste. Every time the
jury can pick them out blindfolded. ="
DR.. Wiley stated that he is a
thorough believer in cold storage
and believes that most foods improve
when properly kept for short time,
but he said that the object of his
experiments is to tell the public, and
particularly the cold-storage people,
how long they may safely keep arti-
cles of food in storage. He said that
as yet he has been unable to deter
mine whether drawn or undrawn
poultry keeps better.
An Oysters Life.
DR.. Wiley was asked many ques-
tions about oysters, and said that
the oysters opened and shipped in
buckets should be prevented from
entering interstate commerce, as
they are dead. "An oyster is dead
an hour after it is opened" said DR..
Wiley, "and is not good. 1t loses
its flavor"
In response to inquiries from
representative Haskins as to the ad
visibility of freezing oysters to pre-
serve them for shipment, Dr.. Wiley
said:
"Oh! they ought rot to be frozen.
That ruins them. and as soon as they
thaw they are dangerous. He then
urged that oysters should be shipped
alive and in the she'll and said that
the greatest outrage of the oyster
trade Is to soak oysters with fresh
water ard swell them up making
them look fat.
DR.. Wiley said the oysters sent
out in tin cans are all right, but in
further denunciation of bulk oysters
shipped in tubs and buckets said
They are either preserved with
some preservative or are dangerous
ly near the ptomaine line, one OF
the two"

INSISTS UPON TREATY RIGHTS.
Any Solution OF The Controversy
Must BE Based Thereon.

Toxic (By Cable) After care
2ul survey of public feeling here re-
garding the prospect of a satisfactory
solution of the San Francisco school
controversy, it may be stated that
while the approach OF the termina-
tion of the disagreeable affair Is well
coined. yet the report from Wash

fected by a mutual treaty excluding
the immigration of laborers is gen

However, confidence continues that
a solution Of the question will be
reached without the least sacrifice
