The programme was like the usual

WILL CHANGE LABEL TO
SUIT UNCLE SANS FANCY

An instance of how easy IL is. to get
into difficulties with Uncle Sam came
to light, Wednesday morning. In the
United States district court. Incl
dentally 1t revealed a conflict be-
tween the federal and the state pure
food laws.
The Caro- Vinegar Co, OF Caro-.
Mich, manufactures vinegar from
beet sugar moiasses and has always
labelled Il "fermented sugar vinegar"
which was in strict compliance with
the state law. Uncle Sans chemists
discovered, however. that a certain
percentage, of the product was dis
titled and proceeded, against the Caro-
Vinegar Co. In the northern division
OF the district for misbranding.
Secretary Montague, Of the COM
pany, came down from Caro-, Wednes-
day morning TO plead guilty TO the in
formation and take his medicine. The
violation was so purely technical,
however, that District Attorney Tut
tie recommended that a plea OF nollo
contendere. which is a more polite
way OF pleading guilty and doesn't
sound so harsh, be entered. This was
done and Judge Angel suspended SEN
tence with the understanding that. In
the future, the company, in sending
| its product out OF the state, will label
I. "a compound Of distilled and fer
nlented sugar vinegar"

from comparative obscurity TO fame,

smiled indulgently.

Again the court smiled.

The prosecutor then sat down in q
convenient seat near the wiz
while the court continued with a mum.
Der OF. examinations and arraignAlents,
he viewed the contiguous scenery
with some show of passing interest.
Finally, the case in which the pros
ecutor was interested was called, and
Mr.. Shepherd again stepped forward.
II was a very amiable proceeding,
lasting but a few brief seconds, fol-
lowing which Mr.. Shepherd departed
quite decorously.

prosecutor left the room.
There has been some conjecture
