COAL PRODUCTION

washington, July 6.--The complete

survey. The sight states included.
namely, Colorado. Idaho, Montana.

a total Of ~26,044,387 short tons, val

was produced in Nevada In 1910, the
output OF the other states was
28,857,413 short tons, valued at &43,-
776, 715, indicating a decrease in 1911
of ~2,Sl3,026 short tons, or 81 per cent
in quantity and of $3,677,96S. or 81
per cent in value. This decrease was
due to the resumption of mining in the
Mississippi valley states, the idleness
in which, caused by the strike in 1910,
resulted in extraordinary demand on
the mines Of mos OF the Rocky noun
tain states.
In Montana and North Dakota the
production In 1911 exceeded hat of
1910, in the former by 55,38S short
tons and in the latter (Which produc-

tion.

ENFORCING PROVISIONS
OF FOOD AND DRUGS ACT.

The vigorous activity in the en-
forcement of the food and drugs act
displayed during the quarter just end
ed, was the subject of comment by the
secretary of agriculture.
In the months of April, May and
June, 1912 more than 500 cases were
reported to the attorney general for
prosecution, including both criminal
prosecutions and recommendations
for the seizing of adulterated and mis-
branded food and drugs. This num-
Der is one-eighth of the total number
OF reported for prosecution
since the act became effective on Jan.
/, 1907, is double the number report
ed by the secretary to the attorney
general during April, May and June,
1911, and exceeds by more than % per
cent the number OF ase reported dur
the first quarter of 1912. The
number of cases reported was so
large that It has been found necessary
for the United States attorneys in some
Of the large judicial districts to make
cases and set aside several weeks ex-
clusively for the trial Of such cases.
Secretary Wilson commended many
Of the United States attorneys for
their diligence in prosecuting the
cases. The maximum penalty allowed
for first cases, that is, a 5000 fine, has
been imposed on several defendants.
The first jail sentences under this
statute were imposed during this
quarter. Several hundred consign-
ments OF food stuffs found to contain
filthy, decomposed, or putrid material
have been condemned and destroyed
after seizure. Noteworthy among
cases Of this class was the proceed
ings for the condemnation Of about
1000 cases of sardines found on ex-
animation by the bureau of chemistry
to consist wholly or in part of filthy,
decomposed, and putrid substances,
In this case, after a warmly contested
trial, the jury returned a verdict for
the government. In a considerable
number Of seizures, where the offense
charged was ~misbranding only, and
the goods contained no substances

During the same period several

Who Will Win $4,000 Prize
for Best Wheat in Northwest

Minneapolis, MINI, July 6.-Hcw
the judges win find the best ave bush
els Of wheat grown in the American
northwest and determine who lie en-
titled to the $4,000 prize offered for
five bushels of wheat by the North
west Development league, is told by
Pres. Lewis Penwell of the league who
has given much time to working out
the details.
How many people will pick over
five bushels OF wheat to get the kerr
nels uniform, remove weed seed, have
only plump, bright. sweet seeds in the
sample and thus get the grain a lit
tie nearer perfect, is a question which
is interesting the development league,
but it appears that a large number are
willing to hand pick the wheat.
-Four hundred farmers have writ
ten the secretary and declared their
intention of entering this contest"
says Mr.. Penwell. with prospects
o the best grain crops the American
northwest has ever known, there will
be plenty Of competition for the
prize offered at the Northwestern
Products exposition In November.
Three judges will be selected by
the president and the agronemists of
the agricultural colleges of the seven
states competing: Minnesota, the Da-
kotas. Montana, Idaho, Washington
and Oregon. The judges must come
from without the American northwest.
1t Is not expected that these judges
will all be agricultural college people.
Some of them viii probably be from
N of the grain exchanges OF the
country judge of commercial grains.
Judging will be in three ways;
first according to the accepted score
card; second by a milling and baking
test and third BY the yield per acre.
One hundred points will be allowed for
each of the three ways and the sum OF
the points gained divided by three,
thus arriving at the average score"
Mr.. Penwell said the judging by the
standard seed score is probably the
most interesting as the exhibitor can
gain points by carefully selecting his
grain. In the milling test the exhib-
itor a tell what kind of bread his
wheat will make but he can have the
wheat clean and free from impurities.
This score card shows the test which
all wheat is given in one way or an
other at the grain markets to deter
mine its commercial grade. The
judges in determining the best wheat
at the exposition will of course ne
guided by the same requirements.
Thirty points will be allowed on
yield, twenty-five being on the weight
