.FORMALIN IN
MILK SAMPLE

F. 3. Blanchard, Food Commissioner
FOR the Board of Health, made a very
full statement yesterday concerning
the charges of E. p. Irwin that he had
attempted to use his official position
in the interest of the Honolulu Dairy
mems Association, and against other
dealers in cream.
Blanchard stated that the samples
from which he isolated formalin had
been sent to him by the importers,
Raven & jacobson, with whom Twins
brother is connected, with the request
that the percentage of butter fat be
determined. 1t was in preliminary work
Of making this test that evidences Of
formalin appeared in one Of the reac-
tons. Following this up, Blanchard
confirmed this evidence by several
other tests. He repeated the demon
stration in the presence Of a number
of witnesses, one of them being a
prominent druggist in the city, and
duOluGI all empty Z VI ANdN Gil N 81 Nob-
son, who is said to be a chemist.
Blanchard denies that he had any
idea of looking for a preservative or
adulterant in the sample submitted
to him, but that the formalin reaction
appeared at almost the first step of the
analysis for butter fats. These sam
pies not being official, Blanchard a day
or so later in person took samples
from the shipment which had been
held up as a result of his first dis
covery, and it was these official sam
pies which showed absolutely no trace
of the preservative found in the first.
81 cannot explain it, said Blanchard.
In the first place have no knowledge
that the first sample was from the
same cream from which I took my
samples. There is the possibility that
the container in which the first sample
was brought to me may have been
cleansed with formalin, which thus
communicated to the contents. Another
possibility is that formalin in small
quantity had been used in the entire
shipment, but had disappeared IN the
interval between the time the first
sample and the second were taken.
Formalin will evaporate or change into
its constituent compounds with time,
and small quantity added in San
Francisco, expected to disappear with
in the eight or ten days interval be-
,. tween the time of shipment and the

count.
Just what action, if any will be taken
by the Board of Health by way of in
vestigation, is not known, although II
is possible that the matter may be

The reapportionment bin having been lulled to
sleep by Congress, a bitter fight in the North Da-
kota legislature was averted. The matter cannot
be brot up for the next decade. and in the mean
time, North Dakota will have but two members o.
the lower house Of Congress. If the reapportion-
ment bill had been passed, giving North Dakota
three representatives, the legislators from the west
ern and central portions of the state in all pro-
babibiity would have united to make western,
central and eastern divisions. What's the matter
with making two separate districts anyway? Grand
Forks and Fargo could then settle their little Diff
ferences.

This Is the dry farming gospel In
a nutshell The rest is amplification.
There can be no hard and fast rules
laid down because soils differ, eli
mates differ, cropping systems differ,
and in order to meet the conditions
above laid down, methods must difIer

The principal game wardens Of the state, the
Secretary, D. l. Armstrong J. c. Killion, former
editor Of the Towner Tribune, of the members
OF the board, and others, were called before the
investigating committee at Bismarck today. We
presume that Mr.. Armstrong will be able to give
satisfactory explanation concerning his expenses,
to whom the salary of SIS month paid for
stenographic services, and just what the duties
OF said stenographer consisted Of; why he was
allowed s25 month office rent, where the office
was situated, etc, etc. Staale Hendrickson should

poachers he succeeded in arresting why he was
compelled to travel hitler and thither about the
state how many thousands of dollars worth Of in

political converts he has to his credit Staale is
an honest fellow to say to least, and he will not
try to keep any facts secreted Some interesting
stories could be told If the game wardens will Just
speak up. The investigation should result In
drastic change of our game commission law, which
doubtless, it will.

The Income Tax
An Issue Next Year.

The uncertainty as to the effect Of
Section 10, Article Is, Of the Florida
constitution relating to the ratifca-
ton of amendments to the federal con-
stitution by the state legislature,
caused the action upon the income tax
amendment to be indefinitely post
poned.
While many members believed that
the present legislature had a right to
act, some believed that it did not and
the matter was therefore passed over
for the present.
There will be no question, however,
as to the right of the next legislature
to act and this will make the income
tax an issue in the primaries next
spring when members of the legisla-
ture are to be nominated.
That being the case the people
must use unusual care in the selection
of their representatives in the next
house and senate.
There are some Aldrfch democrats
who will no doubt want to be elected,
but they must be located, marked, and
defeated at the polls.
The Aldrich democrat is exactly
like the Aldrich republican and we
want no more of them in the Florida
legislature.
1t is altogether possible that the
amendment may be ratified by the
necessary number of states before
Florida has another opportunity to
act. but we should nevertheless take
no chances on that possibility. The
following states have acted as indi-

Our Treatment of
The Standard Oil Case.

The supreme courts decision in the
Standard Oil case, which requires the
dissolution of that company as now
organized, raises some interesting
questions which yet have to be deter
mined.
The Standard Oil company is put
out of business because 1t is held to be
q conspiracy and combination in re-
straint of trade and also because 1t
was held to be monopolizing interstate
commerce in violation of the Sherman
antitrust law.
This all looks good on its face. It is
what all of us have been bowling for
and for long time.
But shorn of the legal questions in
volved, what does the decision mean
TO the consuming public? How will it
affect the price of oil and will the con-
sumner be the gamer. or loser by it?
Under the highly organized and
perfectly operated system employed by
the Standard oil Company it was able
to produce and market oil and the by
products thereof cheaper than any
other individual or smaller corporation.
1t had the advantage of the latest in
ventions and improvements which
science was able to produce for the
utilization of waste. the prevention Of
loss, and the employment of every
agency for manufacturing, delivering.
and selling a product that was superior
In quality and low in price.
Are we therefore ready to declare
unlawful a method of producing and
selling which gave to the great mass
of people a better product at a lower
