COMMUNICATED
Lines Up With The Farmers On Ihe
Fertilizer Bill.

To the Editor of THE NFWs:
"a letter under the caption "a Blow at
Our Important Industries" has appeared
in The News-an argument against the
passage of bill requiring the printing
of formula of the ingredients OF all
phosphates sold in the State.
"Now, do not claim to know anything
about the phosphate business, nor am
a user af the same; yet am, on reading
this letter, at once lined up with the
farmer and Mr.. J. Dawson Williams for
the passage Of such bill.
eff Hoge and all Others interested IN
the manufacture of goods for the general
use of the public realized how the pub
lies eyes have been opened by the pass
age of the pure-food law and how closely
it is watching pure-food labels, they
would not attempt to put up so lame,
halt and bursted-up an old argument as
"a Blow at our Important Industries"
letter strikes me as being. What in the
name of common sense has consumer
to do with boosting up special pet In
dustry, which in this case is phosphate!
He bowls about giving away secret for
mulas. We have been through all OF this
in the pure-food fight, and generally
found that secret formulas covered the
most outrageous authorizations imagina-
ble Nay, nay, Mr.. Hoge! Your letters
reads very well, but your arguments are
out of date-at least, that's the way it
looks to countryman. L. +. l..
Thurmont, Md, Feb. Ia.
CHOW do not claim to know anything
about the phosphate business nor am
user of the same, yet lam, on reading
this letter at once lined up with the farm
ers and Mr.. j. Dawson Williams for the
passage of this bill' is what among other
pointed and timely matter appears in a
letter to the Baltimore News of Satur-
day last and under the caption "Lines up
with the farmers on the fertilizer bill. "
The letter appears over the signature
T. f. L., Thurmont, Md, primarily it is
a reply to letter and argument which
had previously appeared in The News
and under the caption, "A Blow at our
Important Industries" assailing and OPP
posing the passage of bill by the pres
ent Legislature requiring the printing OF
formula of the ingredients of all phos-
pilates sold in the State.
In his brief but crisp and interesting
letter and argument 7. 3. L. strongly
fayors the passage of this bill, thus one
feels sure meeting the good will and
gratitude Of all toilers in the soil at least
The same message clearly points out that
T. E. L. is heartily opposed to the adult.
Grafton of any food be it for the growing
crops, man or beast and what we want
and want badly is more men who are
educationally qualified and who have tho
courage to publicly oppose the pernicioui
business Of adulterating foods, drinks o.
