P~reservatives In Food

EiNoSI VdStNCo III FOS1s
The use Of p~reservatives In our
food has been a subject often dis
cussed and even with our pure food
laws has not been settled.
All questionable p~reservatives are
more or less unwholesome, and when
taken into the body In any amount
will produce poisonous effects.
Borax Is widely used as a preserv-
alive, especially in countries where
the market is at a distance from the
sources of supply.
The S of borax seems to be fol-
lowed by no harmful results, but we
are not ire that many of the d.
gestive Ills may be caused by the con-
tinued use of the drug in the food.
The only safe rule is to insist upon
having absolutely pure food. In the
home the use of such materials should
be unhesitatingly condemned; for
though they may produce 10 notice
able injury when used in small guam
titles, 1t is not improbable that a
daily use may cause trouble.
We have perfectly wholesome pre-
servatives, like sugar. salt, vinegar
and spices, though too much of any
of these is not good. Sugar being a
food, the addition of it to our food
adds to the food value. Sugar is the
ideal preservative for fruits. Molds
and yeasts will not grow in a solu-
ton containing a considerable guam.
tity of sugar.
Fresh fish is often rubbed with
sugar to preserve it for a short time.
Condensed milk is preserved by add
ing sugar; it changes the milk, but
does not injure it as a food.
Salt is another harmless preserva-
tive and is the common one for the
keeping of pork, eggs, butter and fish.
Salt in too large a quantity is not
wholesome, and the food by the con-
tact of the salt Is somewhat changed,
making 1t less digestible. All salty
foods, like ham when too salt, pork
and fish should be well soaked in
water before cooking.
Acetic acid or vinegar is another
well-known preservative used to pre-
serve pickles of all kinds. The acid
serves two purposes, changes the fla
vor and at the same time keeps the
pickles from spelling.
Spices, so common in the home, are
good pre~servatives. Spice also serves
two purposes, f1avoring and preserv-
ing the food at the same time.

Jury Reform In Sight.

Jury Reform In Sight.
Trenton.-Reform of the jury system
of the state, under which most of the
glazing pol1sical scandals of recent
years have been possible, is apt to
be accomplished under a bill intro
duced in the legislature. Governor
Wilson has seen the bill. The bill
provides for the appointment by the
Supreme Court justice of a jury COM
mission of three persons in each
county, who are to have charge of
the drawing Of the grand and petit
juries, preparing the lists and arrang-
ing Che system of drawing in such
way as to remove any suspicion that
political considerations have aught to
do with them. The salaries of the
commissioners are not to be less than
500 and not more than $500 each, to
be fixed by the justice appointing
them. The power of drawing grand
and petit juries is now vested in the
sheriffs Of the counties, and the man
ner in which the work has been done
has aroused all the best elements
among the citizens of the state to the
necessity Of prompt and effective re-
form. ~ tENvM

Proper Standard Of Treatment Can

Intendents When Acute Cases
Are Admitted.

Trenton.-The questions of getting
uniformity in statistics with relation
to heredity in criminals and depend
ents who are wards of the state and
of the necessity of having medical
heads of county insane hospitals
where acute cases are treated, were
discussed at the quarterly meeting of
the advisory board of the state de-
partment of charities and corrections,
composed of the heads of all the state
charitable, correction and penal insti-
tutions and those county institutions
which receive funds from the state.
State Commissioner George B. Wight
presided at the meeting. The officers
called on Governor Wilson and were
pleasantly received by him. AS DR..
Wight presented each officer the gov
ernor shook hands and spoke a word
of greeting.
The investigating committee laid
before tie meeting the charge of Ed
ward Ritter, the recently discharged
convict, that he had been made almost
blind in the state prison by official
neglect of his eyes. State Prison
Keeper Osborne reported the facts as
he knew them. The committee will
probe the charge and report later.
The committee on dependency and
crime, which is gathering the statistics
as to heredity, reported progress. The
discussion on the question of uni
formity will result in something being
done to bring about a uniform system
of securing and recording the data,
which will then be available for use
in any institution. DR.. Henry A.
Cotton, medical superintendent of the
State Insane Hospital here, is the
chairman of this committee.
The proposition as to county insane
hospitals was that the proper standard
Of treatment cannot be maintained by
lay superintendent when acute cases
are admitted.
