PURE FOOD law IN COURT
TWO HUNDRED CONVICTIONS
RECORDED in THREE YEARS.
Government Loses But Three Cases.
Wide Range Covered in the
Violations.

Within little less than three years
the judgments in favor of the Depart
ment of Agriculture in the enforcement
200 line. OF the total cases the depart
ment has lost three, and it was stated
that of these three one was on appeal
the law in the case.
The prosecutions have covered every
phase from cattle food to patent medi-
cines. Among them have been prose-
cutions for under weight shipments, for
adulteration of milk and preserves and
almost every other edible that goes to
form the staple diet of man, and all
sorts of patent medicines and soda
fountain drinks that contain Injurious
ingredients not specified on the label.
Packages Under Weight.
One class of cases that were very nu
merous but that seem from the records
to be decreasing in number, are the un-
der-weight packages. These have in
cluded flour, can goods, preserves and
all sorts of package goods.
In every case the shipment was just
few ounces under weight and the loss
to each individual was small, but where
there was very large factory output
this loss in weight amounted in the ag-
sregate to an immense sum on the years
business. Some of the shippers have
complained that it was Impossible to al
ways get the packages of the exact
weight but while there have been large
number of cases of under weight. there
has been an entire absence of cases where
the factory erred in favor of the con-
sumner.
Violations Under Drug Law.
There have been number of cases also
where patent medicines were advertised
as cures for certain disorders. 1t was
thought at first that it might be hard to
convict cases Of this sort, but many of
the complaints filed by the department
said fatty that the claims were ''exag
gerated, false and misleading" 1t was
found that courts and juries accepted this
statement and returned convictions, SO
that there has been less difficulty in Sc
curing convictions than was anticipated.

who will be much In the public eye as
chairman Of the joint congressional
committee to investigate the Balm

third term as a member of the upper

He served three terms in the national

mother when he was less than FIVE
years old and earned his first money

Senator Nelson has an intense per-

His hair and beard are cropped to CO.

Why the SQUIRRELS Are Red.

Once. it is said. there was squirrel
that did not like it's home. and he used
to scold and find fault with every
thing. Its papa squirrel had long gray
whiskers and was so wise. besides
which he would shake his whiskers
quickly. He said to the squirrel: my
dear, as you do not like your home
there are three sensible things any
one Of which you could do-leave it or
change it or suit yourself to it. Any
one Of these would help you in your
troubles"
But the little squirrel said: "Oh, l
do not want to do any of those.
would rather sit ON the branch Of a
tree and scOld."
well" said the papa squirrel, "if
you must do that, whenever you want
to scold just go out on a branch and
scold away at some one you do not
know"
The little squirrel blushed so much
that he became red squirrel. and you
will notice that to this day red squir-
rels do just that thing.-Farm Press.

FOR The CHILDREN
A Good Balancing Trick.

Eve, ybody has seen the juggierS in
a cirrus spinning plates aud even
dishes on pointed stick. For the
most part the plates they use are
made Of wood or metal. and their equi-
libriuIn is due TO centrifugal force.
which will fail just as soon as the
rotation is too weak to overcome the
force of gravity.
But here is way to balance a
china plate on the point of a needle
and even to cause it steadily to spin
upon this delicate support.
Cut couple of corks down the mid
die, through the long axes. and in the
extremity of the four halves thus OBJ
tanned insert as many forks, inclined
to the smooth sides of the corks you
have just cut at little less than a
right angle. Place these four corks
round the rim of the plate at equal
distances from one another and see
that the teeth of the forks are in con-
tact with the rim to prevent their
swaying like so many pendulums.
The little system we have now con-
structed is capable of being balanced.
even firmly. so to speak, upon the point
of a needle. whose eye end is buried
in the cork of an upright bottle With
little care to prevent the plate slip
ping. you may even cause it safely to
rotate at fair rate of speed, which.
when once set in motion. will con-
tinue for a long while. because the
friction at the point of contact is
almost nothing. = Magical Expert

Buff Says "BaH."

This is a game in which no one is
allowed to smile and laugh. All the
players except one sit in row or half
circle. One goes out of the room and re-
turns with stick or poker in his hand
and a grave and solemn face. He is
supposed to have just returned from a
visit to Buff
The first player asks him, where
do you come from?"
"From Buff"
The next asks, "Did he say anything
to you?"
To which the reply is:
Buff said "Baff''
And gave me this staff,
Telling me neither to smile nor to laugh.
Buff says "Baff' to you all. his men,
And 1 say "Baff' to you again.
And he neither laughs nor smiles
In spite of all your cunning wiles,
But carries his face with very good
grace
And passes his staff to the very next
place.
If he can repeat all this without
laughing he delivers his staff to some
one else and takes his seat. but if he
laughs or even smiles he pays a for
felt before giving it up.
