What is Already Provided
The state board has very wisely pro
vided that there shall be no consump-
ton germs placed on the sidewalks
from persons splitting. 1t has also de-
manded that all things exposed for
sale that are to be eaten shall be pro-
tected from such bacilli by demanding
that they be covered up, so flies and
dust can not get on them, thereby in
fecting such food. These laws Will be
vigorously enforced in Richmond as no
doubt much disease comes from flies
carrying sputum and bacilli from the
street to fruits and other food products
thus exposed Such stores must be pro-
vided with ample fly screens to pre-
vent these germ carrying insects from
getting on food products. Slaughtering
places shall also be SO required under
the law. There ear be no question
concerning the value of laws requiring
perfect cleanliness in all places pro-
ducing food products. as a prevention
of disease. as violations of such pre-
cautions will, result in sickness for
either the persons engaged in such
work or those for whom the food is
prepared. and every precaution must
be taken in Richmond to prevent dis
eased foods from entering the market
whether from the country or from the
city.
There is a moral as we'll as a dis
ease consideration In the state laws
prohibiting the improper naming of
foods. as anything short of the truth
on the label would be an intent to
defraud as well as a possible danger

REAL ESTATE BEST

Business in This Line and in

Most Satisfactory Kind.
ARE NOT ENOUGH HOUSES.
AND HOUSES ARE BEING RENT
ED BEFORE THE PLANS HAVE
BEEN COMPLETED.

The real estate and building business
in Richmond is today the best in the
history of the city. There are not en-.
ough houses to meet the constant de-
mand and real estate is booming in all
parts Of town. Carpenters are in the
greatest demand and houses are being
rented before the plans have been COM
pleted.
T. II. Woodhurst, one Of the best
known real estate men in the city,
states that this is his best year since
he has been in the real estate bust
ness. 1T is a fact that for some time
| have received nearly one hundred
calls week from people who are seek
ing houses for rent" said Mr.. Wood
hurst. "At the present time 1 have no
houses left on my list which rent for
$40, $12 and S15 per month and l have
very few houses left that rent for more
than this, and they have all been spo-
ken for by number of people.
New Families Coming.
several OF the larger factories in the
city are being enlarged and additional
men are being employed. Those me-
chanics who come here from various
places to accept employment desire to
locate their families here and other
real estate agents and myself have
been besieged by these mechanics for
houses. The result is that all of the
houses that rent for reasonable sums
have been taken
ITO meet the demand for rentable |
houses big building boom has been
started and dwellings are being put |
Up in every part of the city" continued
Mr. Woodhurst. Building in West |
Richmond is especially active. AT the
present time six dwellings are under
on Randolph street in two
blocks. The city is certainly growing
nd growing fast and the investment
n local real estate right now would be
most profitable venture to anyone.

tubercle bacilli is the real method
through which tuberculosis infection
reaches the lungs.
| while many cases of tuberculosis
undoubtedly have their origin through
| food directly or indirectly infected
with fresh tuberculosis material from
persons so afflicted there are no
means today by which persons are
brought into closer contact with such
fresh material than meat. milk and
dairy products obtained from and i'll
/ the environment of tuberculosis cows.
| We have no more active agent than
tuberculosis cows, for the increase and
persistence of tuberculosis among
men. Man is constantly exposed TO
| fresh tuberculosis material in a help
less way through his use of meat and
dairy products, from tuberculosis
cows and COWS associated with tuber-
culoSiS cattle. 1t seems to me that
we should feel no doubt regarding our
plain duty, which is, no matter what
other measures We adopt in our fight
against tuberculosis. not to neglect

DR.. Waggoner also stated that il the
city council passes an ordinance for
government inspection and the butch
ers go to the expense of preparing
for it, the Richmond butchers against
all others should be protected first,
last and all the time. They deserve
it and should have the protection due
them. Outside meats should be bar
red unless they have the government
stamp upon them.
In case government inspection of
the meat products becomes a reality
in Richmond, it is probable that at
least four men will be assigned here, a
livestock inspector, man to pass his |
opinion on foot and an experienced |
stock man; two meat inspectors, prac- |
teal butchers who are thoroughly ac-t
quainted with the interior organs of [
cattle and their proper condition; and /

BUSINESS MEN ON THE SITUA-
TI0N.
philadelphia Reeord.)

In any great controversy it is es-
sential to start with the facts clearly
before the disputants. At present
there is a decidedly angry contention
between the financiers of Wall street,
on the one hand, and the President,
on the other The President declares
that financiers have deliberately
brought about a reduction in the
price of securities to scare the ad-
ministration away from prosecution
of indicators and into giving help
to the money centres. The financiers
deny any such assumption, holding
that they are the chief losers and are
not likely to punish themselves by
reducing the market price of securi-
ties to the extent of $3,OOO,OOO,000 for
any reason whatever.
The unquestioned fact is that in
spite of the volume of money in
the country it is exceedingly difficult
to borrow it for the needs of bust
ness. Immense liquidation in recent
weeks has reduced the loans for spec
ulative purposes, but still the short
age is so great that New York city
contemplates increasing the interest
paid on its bonds to 4 II per cent. to
attract buyers. Daily commercial
n with oh
ing assignments simply because mon
ey cannot be secured to carry on bus
mess. Fortunately, these sporadic
instances of commercial failure have
not developed into anything savoring
| of a panic What the average man
is most interested in is the state of
trade throughout the country Do the
ordinary currents of business reflect
| the conditions at the speculative cen
tres? To answer this question a
| Chicago bank sent out queries to 3d.
| 600 business men and corporations
all over the country, and the answers
are important
The replies are practically unani-
nous in saying that business is not
only good at present, but that orders
are coming in sufficient to indicate
more than a normal trade this fall
The only complaint is lack of money
to carry on business in some centres,
but the banks are in nearly all cases
refusing loans for speculative pur-
poses and aiding the commercial
world as far as is possible Still there
is not money enough, and the reason
| is not far to seek.
There is scarcely a business house
in the country that does not require
more money to do business now than
it did a few years ago. The cost of
materials for manufacture is in
creasing rapidly, wages are higher,
| and of course more money is re-
CURED do the same amount of bus
mess based on the same actual pro-
duct. But in nearly every case the
product is much enlarged. The man.
firm or corporation which could get
along with borrowing $4,000 must
now have nearer 100000 and may
make no greater profit. This is
where the shoe pinches. More bust
| ness to do and less money to borrow
1t would be the same if there was no
Wall street and no speculation. With
every decline in confidence there is a
loss in credit and over 65 per cent. of
business is done on credit.
