BENz0ATE OF SODA
Controversy Over Its Use as
Personalities.
REFEREE BOARD ATTACKED
Representative Moss of House Com
mittee on Agriculture Supports
DR.. Wiley's View.

The controversy over the use of ben
zoate of soda as a food preservative was
resumed yesterday before the House COM
mittee on expenditures in the Department
of Agriculture. During the proceedings,
Representative Moss of Indiana attacked
the referee board, which had upheld the
use of benzoate of soda against the de-
cision Of DIR. II. w. Wiley, chief of the
bureau of chemistry of the Agricultural
Department.
1.-The existence of this board" said Mr..
Moss, lis simply an impeachment of the
accuracy of the bureau of chemistry.
and if DR.. Wiley is not competent to
pass upon these matters he should be
dismissed
He followed with high tribute to DIR.
Wiley's services.
Solicitor McCabe Replies.
Solicitor McCabe of the department de-
cared that the referee board had per-
formed excellent service, and had pre-
vented great Injustice to manufacturers.
I'm view of SO much talk as to the
possible harmful effects of benzoate of
soda, which DIR. Wiley decided one way
and the board of experts the other way
suggested Chairman Graham, don't you
think the Department of Agriculture
should protect the public?''
THE department believes that 1t is pro
tecting the public" replied Mr.. McCahe
1.-The board is the highest scientific au
thority in the country"

Feeding of Fry.

Feeding of Fry.
Feeding the fry is the real problem the
experts have to encounter. Natural food
is necessary, but the bureau is at work
now trying to find an artificial food that
will be practical.
The system of grayel-flled boxes for
nests has proved most successful. Over
these boxes cloth nets are placed to pro-
tect the fry. When the young are large
enough to be moved they are placed in
troughs and cared for until they are large
enough to shift for themselves.

of the success of this culture lies in feed

The natural food of the black bass, ac-
cording to recent report of the bureau
of fisheries, varies greatly and is infiu-
enced by the spawning season, character
and temperature.
The adults are pugnacious and voracous
and are great cannibals. Their food

forms of life found in water.
A peculiar thing about the breeding OF
the black bass is the fact that the male
does most of the work. He finds the
nest After the female has spawned he
watches over it until the eggs are hatch
ed. Then he takes care of the brood.
AS soon as they are able to rise from
the nest and school he follows them

Eat One Another UP.
Not only do the fry have to fear the
adults, but one another. The cannibal in

frequently eat one another
Unlike the shad and salmon, the
artificial propagation of black bass, by
taking and impregnating the eggs. has
not been, up to the present time. prac-

be stripped with great difficulty, and it
has been necessary to kill the male to

Unsuccessful efforts have been made
daily for several weeks to spawn a
female black bass which was SO near the
point OF spawning that when held head
downward the eggs could be seen to roll
forward toward the head, and when re-

Since a practicable way to artiticially
impregnate the eggs of the bass has not
yet been developed, and the handling of
eggs with indoor apparatus is impossible,

LIQUOR QUESTION Is
TEMPORARILY SETTLED

PHOENIX Arg Nov. THE prohi-
bition question, which seriously threat
encd to disrupt the Democratic majority
of the constitutional convention was
settled today. Mt least temporarily, by
the adoption of an amendment recon-
mended In one of the minority reports
on the legislative committees subst-
tutc initiative and referendum PROPOSE
ton
The attempt OF the complete home
rule for cities faction TO strike out the
counties in the operation Of the initia-
tive and referendum was renewed this
morning. while the Prohibitionists again
sought delay and time for consideration,
but II carried by n vote of 32 TO is. The
amendment as adopted gives To the coun-
ties. cities and towns tho use of the
initiative and referendum as we'll as to
the state but counties are given no
more legislative power than they now
have. The segregation of cities and coun-
ties for the rcgula lion OF the liquor
traffic remains as IL was under terri
torlal law. II Is believed however, that
the option problem Will confront Ari-
zona again when the committees on coun-
Ties and municipalities makes its report,
and both sides accept today'S result in
the nature OF a temporary truce.
The amendment carried Saturday
striking out the clause giving TO the leg
islaturc power to refer legislation to the
people was reccnsidered today Judge
Baker attacked the amendment on the
ground that no other state having direct
legislation had deprived its legislature of
such power.
