Nogales, Sonora, Mexico, Nov. IL

asked William Bayard Hale, President
Wilson's agent, to present his creden-

OYSTER EXPERTS

Commissioners Mix Again on
Troublesome Potomac
Biyalycs.

Although the joint oyster commits
sion. composed of scientific representa-
tives from Maryland, Virginia and the
United States Department OF Agricul
turc. has agreed to make r third invcs-
tiEation and analysis OF Potomac River
oysters about March IT, there is pro-
mise of nothing but disagreement when
the time comes for the preparation OF
the final report of the Investigations.
Whatever the conclusions reached in
the formal report OF the commit ssion,
there is sure to be minority report
differing In toto from the findings of
the official document.
On the two previous investigating
trips down the Potomac. the commits
sioncrs have disagreed wonderfully on
tho Interpretation to be placed upon
the presence of certain bacilli in tho
river bivalvcs. The nrst trip was made
by the commission In September, and
when the commissioners met in Wash

pare the results OF their separate

reliable analyses OF oysters for every
season Of tho year. and add weight to
the final report which the commission
is to render. There is little prospect
that the written findings of the COM
mission will be ready for publication
before summer, although it may be
decided to give out the results after
tho March tests.

FREAK PROVISION
IN ICE CREAM LAW
Legislature Permits Gelatin to Be
Used, While Prohibiting Pow
der Made of Gum.

Ry an act OF the General Assembly
of Virginia. all the ice cream made in
this State must either contain GER
tain amount OF gelatin. or else it must
lack entirely that quality of "stcli-
ness" which makes ii stand UP and
look appetiZing, as all self-respecting
ice cream should.
The sage legislators, who defined ice
cream for the guidance Of the righteous
manufacturer and the protection of the
public. realized that ice cream must
be sticky. but apparently they did not
know that there is more than one way
OF making il SO.
The stiffenine material commonly
used by manufacturers, and VIII ch is
now prohibited by the new State law.
according TO a veteran mixer who was
interviewed yesterday by a reporter
for The Times Dispatch, is a sort of
vegetable powder made from tree gum,
which may be easily dissolved in the
sugar without the use of heat 1t
takes a lot of cooking to dissolve gel
atm which may he used under the
terms of the law, and moreover, gel
attn Is 4 sort of Il packing house by
product, made from hoofs, if not horns.
and decidedly less appetizing than a
vegetable binder"
That ice cream. as defined by the
statesmen, has almost ceased TO exist
in Richmond is the statement of a local
dairyman. who says that he used to
make real ice cream. Dut mas given IL
up because he cannot compete with
the numerous limitations sold under
that name.
For the statute book says that ice
cream must be a frozen product made
from fresh cream and sugar" and 1T is
provided that limitations made from
canned or. powdered milk may not be
sold as ice cream unless they are la
beled with the facts about their origin.
by far the greater part of the So
said the manufacturer. sis made from
canned OF powdered milk and mar
keted without tho sign of u label. The
amount OF pure fresh cream produced
within reach OF the city could not
supply more than a small fraction Of
the quantity of ice cream consumed
here every summer.
Many or the varieties OF canned
| ice cream contain Il basis of real cream
or unskimmed milk. and others con-
tain none at all. The better grades
are quite rich In butter fat, and 1t is
impossible to prove by an analysis that
| they are not made from real cream.
Hence I do not believe that any
great harm IL done to the people who
eat the alleged Ice cream; IL Is the
local dairyman who suffers from the
cheap competition. He Is compelled to
pay license to operate. and his run
| ming expenses are high. He is in a.
position TO make real ice cream out
Of real cream but he cannot possibly
sell it in competition with frozen
canned or matted milk. which ia
shinpcd here in large quantities at a
vary low cust."
