Fish Projection Is Greatly
Needed i'm United States

ing. Professor Jordan in order to rem
edy this evil proposes the broad doc
trine of federal control. says the Hum
boldt Standard. Incidentally 1t might
be mentioned that such law would
apply to fish life in Humboldt county.
DR.. Jordan's views are thus expressed
There is no remedy except for the
United States to take control OF all
migratory animals of commercial value,
and to control and legislate for the In
terstate fisheries, as It does for the in
terstate commerce. Matters or import
ance. which no particular state can
manage, must be taken in hand by the
United States. Problems which see
saving legislatures find insoluble are
easy enough to a national commission.
In this case the machinery for investi-
cation and control (and all control
must be based upon scientific investiga-
tion) already exists in the United States
bureau of fisheries"

A LTHoUGH the present state pure
"a food law was enacted nearly two
II years ago, cases of its enforce
ment-at least to the extent of prose-
cutions-have been comparatively rare.
1t appears now, however. that an Ell
fort is to be made to bring to book
persons who are alleged to have vio-
lated the act. According to a dispatch
from Sacramento, the state board OF
health has forwarded fifty-six COM
plants for pure food law violations to
the district attorneys of Orange, Los
Angeles, Alameda, San Francisco,
Santa Clara and Sacramento counties,
with Instructions for prosecutions un-
der the act. 1t is added that the vio-
lations consist chiefly Of mislabeled
products, impure food and canned
goods sold in short weight in quanti-
ties. The single case In sacramento is
that of a hair tonic that is said to car
ry with IL an exaggerated recommen-
dalton, says the.S San Diego Union.

Effort VIII Be Made to
Enforce the Pure Food Law

Every law that is placed upon the
statute book should be enforced to the
letter. In that way only can It's mer.
its or defects be tested. Enforcement
will be the most effective method of Sc
curing the reapel of a bad law. AS re-
CARDS the pure food act, 1t can be SAID
that it's passage was favored by tne
great majority of the people 1T Is IN
line with the protective measures tnat
are taken in other states. Its aim is
twofold-to guard the public health ana
to protect people from being swindleu.
1t is not .'gotten that previous Caii-
fornia enactments to attain those enus
were virtual failures. 1t is possible,
of course. that no greater success VIII
be achieved under the law of two years
ago But, however that may be, the
one consistent course now is to make
an honest attempt to enforce the pres
ent act This is all that the people ex-
pect, and they have a right to insist
that such attempt shall be made.

1t is significant that the supreme
court has upheld the fine of $10S,000
against the New York Central for re-
batting. If that fact has any bearing
on the prosecution of -tandard OIL, in
the rehearing of the $29,000,000 case, 1t
will be read with absorbing interest by
about SO,000,00O of people, who are in
dignant at the thought that a techni-

lawbreaker in the land to escape its

POSTAL REFORM

n N ACCOUNT of conditions govern
ing present postal arrangements
" exasperated citizens from time &c
time find themselves lost in puzzled
wonder over the eccentricities ano
vagaries which attend the ordinary run
of business done by houses having q
large shipping or import trade. A clti-
zen mailed out some examples Of goods
made in California" He sent his
packages not only to various parts OF
the United States, but to the continent
Of Europe. The samples weighed about
eleven pounds apiece. He found the
United States mail refused to carry
sample packages weighing more than
four pounds apiece. So he subdivideo
his goods into three small packages the
total weight of which amounted &c
eleven pounds. Mailed to Rotterdam
Holland, these cost $1.32.
Three packages of goods exactly sim
liar in every respect, mailed to Pasa-
dena, California, cost him $1.76. lie
wished to send to New York one undi-
vided package of the goods, weighing
eleven pounds. Since he could not send
it by mail to any point in the United
States, he had to express 1t at the rate
OF $3.50 a hundred.
Present postal conditions are detri-
mental to the interests of California
and commercial bodies should unite in
the effort to have them reformed. That
it should cost more to mail goods from
AI,nrR n 1ail
similar goods from Los Angeles to Hoi-
land is a reductio ad absurdum OF the
postoffice proposition. AS far as parcel
and package carrying is concerned
postal reform is urgently needed.

condition and up to the top notch Of
production by careful man and his
careful wife, and the entire work only
occupy about a half Of their time.
Ninety per cent. Of the necessary feed
may be produced on the farm. The
gross revenue is pretty nearly all profit
if the item Of wages is not considered.
The auxiliary gardening may pay all
the expenses outside the cows and
chickens. The revenue from them may
be maintained at about and above four
dollars day, to be applied as the wa
ges of the enterprising and industrious
couple. Allowing for all reasonable
contingencies and drawbacks, loss Of
time, hired help, etc., it is q pretty
safe estimate that a thousand dollars
Of practical net money may be had
from a ten, fifteen or twenty-aere
farm, stocked on or slightly above the
scale noted.
This is a paper estimate, but the only
msOund spot in it is made by the fact
that eggs do not always bring forty
cents dozen. But they are never be-
low twenty, and generally may be said
to average thirty in the Tampa market
the year round. 1t is perfectly clear
that an industrious man and wife may
clear up from seven hundred to thou
sand dollars year without OyerwOrk'
ing or OverwOrrying. Do you know
any people who are doing better il
salaried positions or OutOf business in q
small way? Besides, the people on 4
