Laporte High School B. B. c. VS.. Cadets
Of Dushore.
The Laporte High School base
ball team played the Cadets of Du-
shore at Dushore, on Thursday
last. The Cadets are exceptionally
fine players and we understand
have won every game they have
taken a hand in this season up to
Thursday when they struck their
Waterloo. The Laporte boys were
first to bat and scored six runs,
this cynched the game in their favor
and they kept the lead to the end.
At no time during the game did
the Cadets give our boys any un-
easiness. 1t was evident that our
boys out played them in every par
ticular. Thomas Coyle, of Dushore
umpired the game and we are pleas
ed to note that there was not a
single complaint made by either
side of decisions rendered by him.
In fact he was model Judge hav-
lug no favorites on the field. The
score follows:
Laporte, IA
| Dushore, 3
The Dushore Cadets have chal-
lenged the Laporte High School
team to play return game OF base
ball to take place on the Laporte
A. A. field, on Friday Aug. 2Sth.
This game will be called at 10:30 a.
M. and promises to out do, for fast
ball, any game ever played on this
world renown field. If you are
looking for sport don't miss this
part of the program for Fridays
doings. Either team will have on
their war pants and will put up a
battle that will astonish the old
soldiers in the game.
The repeal of the Pure Food Law
of 1905, has proved to be a serious
detriment to the dairy interests of
PENNSYLVANIA and also to the public
health.
The present food law approved
June lst. 1907, as constructed by the
courts, is inefficient and furnishes
but little protection to the dairy
interests or to the consuming public.
After careful consideration by the
Grange Committees it seems advis-
able that Dairy Commissioner be
appointed who shall have charge of
the dairy interests, and who shall in
force only special dairy legislation.
BY this means we hope to avoid the
complications Of general FOOD law
embracing both dairy and trade oc-
cupations,
The passage of the food law of
1907, has thrown the markets of
Pennsylvania open to the manu-
facture and sale of adulterated butter
and bogus lard. This same law has,
by recent court decisions, made it
impossible for our State Dairy
and Food Commissioners to success
fully prosecute dealers who sell
watered and skinned milk as pure.
Therefore we recommend that the
next legislature shall create the Office
of Dairy Commissioners, who shall
deal only with dairy products, viz:
butter and butter substitutes, such
as oleomargarine, butterine renovat-
ed butter, adulterated butter, milk,
cream, condensed milk, ice cream,
cheese and all other products made
wholly or chiefly from milk.
We further recommend that the
laws which deal with other food
products shall be placed in the
hands of the State Health Depart
ment. We would suggest careful
and early consideration of this sub
ject by every grange in the State, in
order that the State Grange in
fuence may be exerted in this inn
portant movement.
If reports of the decisions of vari
Gus oranges are promptly forwarded
to worthy State Master w. f. Hill,
Huntington, Pa, the work will be
greatly facilitated.
