IL is claimed that the X-rays have been successfully applied in France to the detection of adulterat1ons of food, where the adulterants consist of some hnd of mineral matter. The food to be examined is reduced to powder and spread thinly upon glass.

COMPANIES MUST
KEEP UP ROADS

The East Orange City Council, City
Counsel Borden d. Whiting, and Richard
w. Turner, of the Standard Bitulithic
Company, held a two hours conference
last night over the supplementary con-
tract for the paving of Main street its
entire length with bitulithic. and at its
close the city protected itself by obligat-
ing the ]. Il. Stanley Company, of this
city, to keep the pavement in repair for
five years and the bltulithic company an
additional five years.
Mayor Gregory had urged The supple
mentary contracts. and the council agreed
on their advisability along the terms
named by him.. Mr.. Turner had a num-
Der of changes TO recommend, one being
that the company be not held responsible
for any heavy transforms that might wash
out the pavement or the works of Al
mighty God, but this clause would not
be agreed TO by the council aud was left
out. If any defects are discovered with
la six months after the ten-year limit en-
plres the company must make the neces.
sury repairs.
There were several changes recon-
mended by Mr.. Turner, however, which
We're adopted. One was that the War
rem Company, which has n part In the
contract, will supply the necessary bond
for the bithulithic company instead of n
surety company: that when corporations
tear up any part of the roadway In ex-
ces; of what the city pays Is to be
charged, and that instead of being specif-
cally stated the laborers must not work
more than eight hours a day the present
labor avs are to he obeyed, MIR. Turner
stating the corporations hope to have
the present labor laws regarding hours
changed In time.
The original contract was prepared in
December of last year. but has dragged
on since, and It was decided to hold an.
other special meeting next Tuesday night,
when It Is hoped to have tho contract
finally signed up, and this will be done
unless Mayor Gregory has objections to
make To the changes decided upon. It is
expected. The Stanley representatives
say they viii begin the work Of laying
the pavement the day following the sign
ing of the contract.
