together twice in a few years and later

Arrangements for the funeral services

THE PURE FOOD EXHIBIT.

There is on exhibit at the Auditorium
on Richards street something that
everybody in Salt Lake City should see.
1t is pure food exhibit; but not that
alone, because there is TO be seen there
a very great variety of good, useful,
ornamental, and pleasant things. a
high proportion of these things are Of
home manufacture, and il is certain
that every householder will get some
advantage by going in and looking over
that exhibit
II is called an exhibit Of pure foods,
and so il Is; but The most interesting
part of it is that which is shown by
the State Food and Dairy Commission
in conjunction with State Chemist
Harms. this being exhibits in concen-
trated form of various adulterants,
spurious navorings, nutritious
sweetenings, and preservatives of vari-
Gus kinds and of more or less injurl-
Gus quality. This exhibit Of adulter-
ants is not a very large ono, but in
direct conformity with the stuff shown,
is highly concentrated There is there
little bottle of saccharine of five hun
dred times the sweetness of sugar. and
of no nutritive value whatever. There
is spurious vanilla bean, There are
spurious extracts, 1avorings, vinegars,
syrups, and so on, some of them de
cidedly non-nutritive, and others of no
particular value and of no great harm,
among the latter, the famous benzoatc
of soda, about which there is so much
difference of opinion But all are adul-
terants and are under the ban Of the
law. The commission furnishes little
pamphlet that shows how some of these
adulterants and spurious articles may
be detected by the housewife; and alto
gether the exhibit in this department is
one of highly instructive as well as
cahtionary character.
The pure food exhibit as n whole is
one of high practical value. But the
spirit Of it all, the real incentive Of
it all, is the exhibit of the State Food
and Dairy Commission which shows
how to keep out that which is bad, de
structivc, or useless, and the activity
of the officials, both State and local, in
enforcing the pure food laws and the
city ordinances on the subject, is high
" commendable, useful, and protective
To The inhabitants OF this city. It Is
all n valuable, practical exhibit that
cannot fail TO be of great service to
all the people.
