Food AdulterstiOns In North Carolina.
Raleigh Dispatch.

Raleigh Dispatch.
The extent and gravity offood
adul,erations in North Carolina
is set ont forcibly in the annual
report OF state food chemist W.
NJ. Allen, of the department Of
agriculture just completed 1t
shows that 721 samples OF foods
gathered from all parts oi the
state and analyz'd 154, or lit
tie more than II per cent. were
found tn bp adulterated or mis-.
branded.
Eight violations OF the law
have been reported to the solici-
tors for prosecution and Others
are being put in shape for rrpor.
ting. OF the eight cases reported
four haye been disposed of by the
courts, there being convictions
and fines in each casa.
The food chemist reports that
the authorizations OF greatest im.
porance were in butter, lcecrealn,
vinegar, syrup, molasses a d

made from gelatin and other a.

calls deliterious to health The
bleaching of the -four. tie food
chemist explains, improves its
appearance without improving
the quality, and by bleaching The
low grade Aours they can be sold
at the price of high grades, which
is deceptive and fraudulent, to
say nuthing OF the Objectionable
chemical left in the product.
Food Chemist Allen declares
that it is very gratifying to OBJ
serve that the use OF chemical
preservatiyes in food is disap'
pering, in spite OF the fact that
high authorities differ as to their
effect on health. The report gives
a long review OF the question OF
the use OF these preservatives in
foods, and takes the ground that
the fact that they are not used
in the high grades of foods, but
only in the lower grades shows
that they tend to cheaper t h e
foods as to their quality an d
declares that while the effect ol
benzoatp OF soda on health is a
disputed question, the risk ofprr'
manent injury TO health and the
production OF an earlier death
than there is need for should not
be run through using foods con-
tanning these preservatlves. He
declares that until the courts OF
the country settle the question
of this danger to health 50 that
departments can condemn such
foods without the ri-k OF damage
suits, the department can only
warn the public OF possible dan
ger, but avoidinggivinggro
for damage suits.

New York Tribune.
So lar as the most trustworthy
data show, the most astounding
feat of long distanre riding was
accomplished by an American
rough rider. one Barbour, who
Undertook to proceed from New
York to Paris, via. Bering strait
and Siberia. a total distance of
some 16, 900 miles. He turned the
trick in 1,09O days.
In the matter OF speed and en-
durance combined, there may be
cited two instances of horspman-
ship during the reign of Henry
VIII. of England and his daugh-
ter Elizabeth. Wolsey, then a
royal chaplain and afterward
the great cardinal, achieved a re.
markable ieat in a ajourney to the
Netherlands, whittier he went to
see Emperor Macmillan. Lpav-
ing london at 4 in the afternoon,
Woolsey Travelled by boat to
Gravesend, rode through { he
night to Dover and, crossing the
Calais, finished his journey on
horseback, reaching the Enper-
or that same evening. On the
following morning he post e d
hack to Calais and had reached
Richmond by sunset, accomplish
ing the journey to Holland and
back in something over two days.
The other in stance referred to
was that on the occasion OF the
death of Queen Elizabeth. 1t was
then that Robert Cary hastily de-
parted from London to carry the
news to the succeeding ruler,
James vi. of Scotland. Riding
out OF Whitehall a little after 9
O'Clock on a Thursday morning,
Cary covered 155 miles to DON
caster that same night. The next
day he proceeded to his home at
Witherington, where lie spe t
some time disposing OF impor-
tant business, and did not start
for Edenborough till the n X t
morning. Had not an accident
Lefallen him he would have rea-
cled the Scot tish city by mid
night. As it was he achieved the
entire journey OF 400 miles with
in three days.
Just after the outbreak OF the
Kuffir war Sir Harry Smith, car.
rying the news from Cape Town
to Grahamstowa, Covered 700
miles in six days, riding across
q wild and nearly trackless coun-
try.
The Gesmuus are not generally
rpputed to be good riders. But
several years ago some officers
OF the imperial army accomplish
ed wonderful fputs of hOrseman'

i,y the emperor for long distance
riding, Many officers tried to ride

Dry Farmed Wheat Preferred.

According to a bulletin issued by
the press bureau of the Dry Farming
Congress, wheat grown upon unirri-
gated land promises to be in demand
by the great milling concerns through.
out the United States. The reason
for this belief is explained in this
statement:
Dry farmed wheat 10 declared by
one Of the largest concerns in the
northwest to be superior to grain
grown on irrigated lands. L.. P.
Wood, of Billings, Mont, manager of
the Russell Miller Milling company Of
North Dakota, writes as follows to
John T. Burns, secretary of the Dry
Farming Congress:
"In this vicinity the dry farming
sections have shown up most favor
ably during the season, when it ia con-
sidered that this summer has been the
hottest and driest that has been seer
here in many years. The quality OF
the dry farmed wheat is excellent, and
this we have determined by very care
full laboratory tests.
"For milling purposes the dry farm.
ed wheat Is a great deal more uniform
in quality than the irrigated product,
and the quality and quantity OF the
gluten is more uniform. This years.
grade has been shown to contain from
81 to Al per cent of good quality OF
gluten, while the irrigated wheat runs
from 30 to 40 per cent and the quality
of gluten Is very uncertain.
"The variety of wheat best adapted
to dry farming In this district is the
Turkey Red, as it natures quicker
than spring wheat and does not have
the drouth conditions to contend with
so long. This variety of wheat is ex.
cellent milling grain when ready for
market. However, the farmers should
consult their local millers as to the
wheat that is best to raise in their vi.
cinity."
Mr.. Burns says this is the first time
a miller has frankly admitted the su.
periority Of wheat grown by dry farm.
ed methods, adding:
Numerous tests will be made at the
International exposition in connection
with the Dry Farming Congress in
Spokane, the week of Oct. 3. to further
demonstrate the advantages of dry.
farmed wheat yer grain grown In dis
tricts where irrigation IL practiced. ;"

Big Ranch Deal In Fergus.

LEwIsTOWN, Sept. 10.-Will Cruise
of Helena is here today closing up a
deal for the purchase of the famous
old N-bar ranch, at Flatwillow, owned
by Col. Thomas Cruise of Helena, and
the Cruise land holdings in Dawson
county, as we'll as 20, 900 head of sheep
aud some $500 head of cattle, with all
the farm implements and stock. The
price paid was S40O, 900, the Flatwillow
ranch including 1900 acres of first
class farm land, making this the most
important deal of the present year in
Montana.
Colonel Cruise has owned the N-bar
for nearly rs years, and during the
past three years several deals have
been on foot for the purchase of this
property, but could not be carried out.
The N.bar extends from the foothills
down into the valley for something
like II miles, and the ranch is almost
the last of those immense tracts com.
mon in this part Of the state in the old
range days. 1t Is understood that the
Conry.M Munger Land company, which
is taking W Colonel Cruse's hold
ings. will cut the big tract up into l6O.
acre farms and COLOMBO the land.
