EMBALMED BEEF.

It is becoming more and more ap- parent that embalmed beef is what the American people have been eating. and must eat if they take to canned goods.
 Prof Charles IT. Lowell. in charge of the dairy and food division of Pennsylvania. said of the recently an- nounced "benzoate of soda" decision:
 "The use of sodium benzoate is bad in principle It is unfair to the con- sumer. The riments conducted by the rer tua=d were made upon healthy persons and did not clear away the doubts as to the danger of using the preservative. The process of using benzoic acid in preparing meat is an indication that we are go- ing back 5000 years, for benzoin or its products has not been used in the preservation of flesh since the Egyp- tians stopped embalming their dead
 It does not make much difference what the authorities have to say in favor of benzoate of soda, every ra- tional person must recognize that food containing it is good to steer clear of. There is no reason why we should indulge in the least bit of embalm- ing fluid for the good of our health or the good of trade.

WHY BEEF IS so HIGH.

This is a question of more import ance to the average citizen than who discovered the North pole. w. F. Sprague, who owns a large cattle ranch in the west, is visiting in Rhode Island. and he gives two reasons Tor dear beef. The first is under r-produc- tion of beef cattle caused by the cut ting up of many ranches into farms and the second is the abnormal con- sumption of meat owing to the coun- try's prosperity. MT. Sprague should be an expert since he owns ranch of many thousand acres in Texas on which ten thousand head of cattle graze. The reason why the ranch men permitted their lands 10 be thus divided was their increasing value Vast tracts in the lower valley of the Rio Grande which five years ago were not worth over two dollars an acre are now held at a hundred and fifty dollars. as the result of irrigation.
 There is so much more money in the sale of the land than in the produc- tion of beef that they yield to tempta = tion and give up the raising of cattle thus greatly curtailing the supply.

GUILFoRD's SHORTAGE.

The treasurer of the town of Gull ford appears to have been a deficit maker for the past ten years, and while he has made good $5,000, the expert auditor finds that there is still a shortage of $6,o00 In commenting upon the situation, the Hartford Times says:
 'The disposition of the voters to make things as comfortable for Treas urer Davis as possible was apparent. Sympathy was expressed for the em- bezzler. He is a good-fellow' type of citizen, who has made many friends. Although his friends haven't yet ac- claimed him as a hero or martyr they stick to him with the loyalty of po- rous plaster
 "The blame for the Irregularities belongs wholly to Davis; the blame for the system under which financial crookedness was made easy belongs wholly to the town. If any adequate auditing of the accounts of the town treasurer had been made from year to year the dedication would have been ripped in the bud. Some of the meth ods by which the accounts were falsi- fled were so crude that they could not have escaped auditors WHO ndu Stuu- fed arithmetic as far as addition and subtraction. Failure promptly to dis cover the irregularities is a discredit to the administrative methods of the town.
 But Guilford has no monopoly oi looseness in the method of keeping town books. Within the past few years shortages have developed in the finances of several Connecticut towns and in nearly all cases the deficits have been made easy by slipshod poll cies and by the lack of any efficient auditing of town accounts. The dis closures which have been made in va rious towns in recent years are an in dictment of the long -distance-tele phone scheme of annually examining the records of town treasurers.'

ALEADER IN REFORM.

Kansas has taken steps to make the baggage smashers conscious of the fact that the methods of handling baggage which have made them fla nous are not only wrong but crim- inal. There have been several gen. erations of baggage smashers and each succeeding generation has be- come more expert in bringing heavy trunks to grief. In fact, they have become so disregardful of the value of the property they daily handle in Kan sas that the state board of railroad commissioners has notified the rail- roads that they must instruct their men that baggage must be as care fully handled as cases of eggs. This is going to the other extreme; and 1t is not likely that it will be strictly enforced. It is claimed that the practice grew out of the modern tendency to have trunks so heavy that no man could handle them with com fort. In time all baggage came to be regarded as fair game There is a chance for kindly consideration on both sides-a square deal for all would work well right here.

Spiced Grapes.

To make as delicious a dish as can he served with cold meat, use Concord grapes, and for eight pounds of grapes allow four pounds of sugar, one pint or vinegar two tablespoonfuls or ground cinnamon, one tablespoonful or grouna cloves and a teaspoonful each of salt and pepper. Remove the skins from the grapes and place them in one yes sei the pulp in another. Cover the skins with cold water and put both vessels over the fire. Heat the pubs to the boiling point, then pass through a colander and return to the fire with the sugar and vinegar and spices Let the skins cook slowly until tender when add them to the pulp with the water in which they have been cook ing. Cook slowly until the mixture will thicken when cold. Pack in jelly classes and cover with paraffin to ex- clude the air.

A SERIOUS POINT MADE.

The most serious point made against postal savings banks in this country bv the bankers in convention at Chl- acago is that our political system IS loose and uncertain and subject to such frequent changes of manage ment that it would be entirely dlf- ferent from establishing postal banks in England and elsewhere. The type of men who conduct the postofiices or she country is not the type who sue cessfully conduct savings banks in the interests of the people. There IS something to such an objection as this; and it is apparent enough 10 the intelligent that the political pull is not a good thing to have connected with such a banking system. There should be a foundation established TOT postal savings bank which Will not only command confidence. but be an assurance against all wildcat ousi- ness. The average political ofhce- holder and postal stamp salesman do not rank as bankers, and It IS nol likely that they arc anxious to gel into the banking business.

ABOUT SOUP.

Soup should not contain fatty mat ter. but should contain all other meat properties. It takes longer to make soup if one sets the stock aside to cool before using the liquid. It is best to take a muslin cloth, wiring it out of ice water and run the liquid through it. The fatty substance will cling to the cloth. If meaty particles bail through the soup. it clouds 1t. This is merely the boiled blood and should be skinned off as soon as it rises to the top Should it get into the liquid, break an egg into the soup, stir it around and when it boils it will come to the top bringing all substances with it. It quickly clears muddy looking SOup.
