PLEASED WITH
COOPERATION
Women Working for Pure Food
Find Merchants Ready to
Meet Them Half Way
INFORMATION FROM CITY
HEALTH OFFICER DESIRED
Mothers Think a Weekly Bulletin
Containing Hints About Care
of Children and Preventive
Measures Would be Helpful

Members of the health committee
and women generally who have been
preaching the doctrine of pure and
clean food have been pleased at the
prompt response shown by the
butchers bakers and grocers in put
ting their food stuffs under cover.
Almost without exception the stores
have shown a disposition to pro-
tect their goods from flies and dust,
many of them presenting a neat and
tidy appearance that is positive de-
light.
Cant Understand il
1t is with surprise and regret,
therefore, that they hear from the
storekeepers the statement, But we
don't sell nearly so much with the
food out of sight this way While
recognizing the commercial value
of display and the psychological Ct
feet of exhibited wares on the pur-
chasing instinCH it is hard for ths
members of the committee to be
heve that any housekeeper shoult
prefer to buy for her family doug Il
nuts placed on the top OF glass
case rather than doughnuts similar
~ made and appearing, protected
from flies and dust by being enc osed
in case 1t is irrational to- supp Dse
either that lamb chops or veal cut
let's placed in trays on the counter,
exposed to flies, street dust and the
prodding finger of the chance pur-
chaser, would sell any quicker than
chops or outlets of similar quality
exhibited in a glass case. 1t rs
merely question of location, with
everything from a sensible and san
| itary viewpoint in favor of the LAT
| ter place.
Get the Habit
While habit is strong, AMI the
sight of such and such a bit of food
stuff in sight undoubtedly does sug-
gest it's purchase, it cannot take
long. they think. for the househo Il
BUYER to get the habit of looking un-
| der the counter into the glass case
for her sugg astions and her food.
desire has been expressed by
several mothers to the health com
mittee that bulletins be issued from
l
CITY health officer. giving hints and
information in regard TO pertinent
health matters. For instance, some
would like to know what precautions
TO take against typhoid, or other
lrontagious or infectious diseases.
Others would like few simple rules
for the care of young children in
hot weather still others would like
information about sterlized milk
and otherwise making the food Civ
en- their babies as germ proof as pos
Sble. The weekly health bulletin
is issued in a number Of cities, nota-
bly, Chicago. with excellent results
The dos and donts" are put nto
pithy form and are read and follow
ed IT is possible bhat the desire for
such authoritative Information here
may result in a formal request to Dr.
Tetreau signed by officers Of various
clubs and organizations, for enllght-
cnment along these lines

Women ought to keep up with the
latest food news just as they do With
the fashions, according TO Mrs. o. O..
Ellis, of Tacoma. who spoke here
recently in regard to cleanliness and
purity of food stuffs A decision just
handed down by the supreme court
in regard to patent medicines illus
trates statements which she made
here that there is still much need
for improvement in the federal food
laws, while the state pure food laws
are not generally 'eXistant. Mrs. Ellis
thinks that women should take some
journal devoted to food and keep
track of the decisions handed down
from time to time. She herself,
through the courtesy of the depart
ment of agriculture, receives notice
of all such federal decisions as soon
as they are made.
The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1911-06-07

For instance there is the famous
Blue Label catsup' decision of
which she spoke here. The law al
lows the use of one-tenth of one
per cent of benzoate of soda as a
preservative in canned goods, DR..
Harvey Wiley of the department of
agriculture, fought this unsuccessful
ly. But in the catsup case it was
found that twenty-five times as niue h
henzoate of soda as the law allows
was being used, and that the re-
mainder was of the connection unfit
for use. And yet, the makers of
this catsup had been advertising
with $4,000 page displays more or
less and selling in large quantities.
Read the Labels
The point made by Mrs. Ellis is
that the housekeeper ought to know
what is contained in the prepared
foods which she buys, and ought to
read the labels. Housekeepers them
selves. in putting up fruit or vegeta-
bles. never think of adding other
personalities than the harmless ones
Of sugar, vinegar salt. spices or salt
petre. Yet they go to the stores, and
If they aren't careful to read the la
bel, and sometimes after they have,
buy canned beans on whose wrapper
it is plainly stated that are "colored
with copper" or something else pre-
served with the benzoate of soda.
While these personalities are not
deadly, of course, it doesn't do the
stomach any good TO have a steady
diet of them.

To Freshen the House.

when spring comes around each year
and nature begins to put on her gay
clothes we naturally feel that it Is time
to brighten and freshen the house. 1t
is not so much that things are shabby
and stuffy from the winters use as that
we want our surroundings to express the
general renewal, the clean and airy
freshness OF spring" says Womans
Home Companion for April. Our grand
mothers made life burden at this
time with the nightmare called house
cleaning. Everything was torn and
for one frantic week, at least, there
was no comfort to be had Now house
cleaning is managed with more ease,
for there haye been countless inven-
tons to simplify it, and also the mod
ern housekeeper uses the simple eXpedi-
ent of having one room at time
cleaned, so that the whole is accom-
plished without wear and tear, and the
family il allowed to feel that home is
still home.
If some of the rooms need papering
and painting, choose color scheme that
Ia not too dark and will harmonic with
the furniture so that the rooms may
reach their highest possibility of at
Effectiveness, The curtains, If new, may
be either muslin or net or scrlm or
ono OF the many dainty fabrics that
are offered in the shops The fancy
scrims, both in natural color and those
printed in colored designs, are charm
ing and range in price from twenty
five cents to about one dollar and a
nalf yard Shades should also be
renewed Il necessary. They can often
be given a ncw lease of life by turn
ing them upside down. This brings the
less worn part at the bssttom. Such
work must be done accurately and
neatly and if you can have help in
handling the shades it will make it
much easier for they are nnhandy
things.
Simplify wherever you can. Change
the pictures about bit and put up
some new simple prints in place Of the
old ones for change. Danish useless
brio brac, for few well-chosen and
well-placed ornaments are worth more,
from an artistic point of view, than
motely array of small Jugs and vases.
Put away as much as possible, leaving
out bowls and vases for flowers, and
let them be the chief summer orna-
ments. 1t viii also make the bore
some work Of busting easier. "

A Thought for Teachers.

Editor, Barre Times
In a personal letter, not meant for
publication, Mr. Frank Z Howe re-
Gently said, II am inclined to think
that much of the dissatisfaction among
young people in rural communities in
Vermont may be traced TO the young
girls who usually teach the district
schools These girls are, n many cases,
dissatisfied with Their work and their
pay, know little or nothing about ag-
ricultural life and in their dissaticfac.
ton and craving for more ambitious
things they educate the children in
their charge to the belief that theirs
is not a satisfactory life.'
These words are very suggestive A
large number of teachers are dissatis-
fed with their lot and create discon-
tent in their pupils How much is dis
satisfaction necessary 70 ambition We
do not wish any one TO be so well con-
tent with his lot that he does not wish
to improve, but improvement is brought
about by building upon what we have
and not by grumbling about the things
around us and showing distaste for
them The desire to get up in any
field is commendable but the desire to
get out is disastrous There is too
much desire to get out on the part of
teachers If teacher in country
school or in city grade goes to her
room in the morning feeling ambitious
to climb up in her profession, she viii
be in the right spirit to enthuse her
pupils, but if she goes to her room
thinking, Il wish l could get out Of
this old hole" she will no doubt COM
municate some of her bad spirit to her
pupils This lis worth thinking about.
Another question is also worth thinking
about The greatest cause of bad
spirit is inefIieiency That person who
can do his work well usually finds some
JOY in doing il If a teacher, or any
other worker, is unhappy, the best
remedy is to learn to work better and
much Of the dissatisfaction will disap-
pear.

Valuable Timber Lands in Vermont.

At the annual meeting OF the Con-
necticut Valley Lumbar Co, officers and
directors were reelected. The company
expects this year to cut total Of about
45,000,0O0 feet, against 100000 feet
last year. Practically all the company's
cut each year has been floated down
the Connecticut river TO its mill near
Mount Tom, where about one-fourth OF
the total amount of logs are made into
pulp wood for paper. II is believed that
the cost to the company of producing
and marketing will this season be less
than for number of years past. APP
proximately 1000 men and $50 horses
are at work in its various camps
The company's properties, on which
its S2,Tl6,000 six per cent. 25-yeaf bonds
are based, consists of about 800 600 acres
of valuable spruce and timber lands in
the northern parts of Vermont and New
Hampshire near the headwaters of the
Connecticut and Androscoggin rivers.
These forests, it is computed. contain
some 2,350,000 feet of marketable spruce
and at least 5OO,0oO,00O feet of aces.
sible hardwood.

William Allen White Describes the
Differences Between a Socialist
and an Insurgent.

In the April American Magazine, Mr..
William Allen White, writing Of polit-
ical conditions and tendencies as he does
so brilliantly, says
direct primary system of nominations,
and he will tell you frankly that the
direct primary system of nominations,
the corrupt practices act, the recall, the
initiative and referendum, or univer
sal suffrage lif he goes that far are
merely means to an end. But ask him
TO what end, he has no definite answer.
Talk to your progressive economic re-
former, and he will tell you that the
regulation of railroads, the federal in
corporation OF capital doing interstate
business, the conservation Of our nat.
ural resources, and the prevention Of
child labor are but steps in the right
direction. But ask him what it is that
really lies as his ultimate goal in the
right direction, and be will shake his
head. He does not know, any more
than Mr.. Riley's little boy, where he is
going nor what he Is going to do
when the world busts through All Of
which proves that there is something
in this forward movement. For when
reformer attempts to answer the third
than what 2 he Is either foolish or in
sincere For there stands always the
impenetrable grindstone. The insur-
gent and the economic reformer do not
pretend to say what IL beyond il. But
the Socialist is impatient, He will have
none of your mere steps in the right
direction He pretends TO see too far
into the grindstone. Socialism claims
to be too farsighted TO be true. Real
wisdom takes account OF exceptions,
sees qualifications, trusts something to
look in the back Of the book for the
answer to social problems"
