So he wiscs what he wot not

For a certain kind Of brown brew
That is called book beer because no
other term Is quite sufficient.
Then his appetite In kindled,
And he straightWay goes to seek II.
Seeking much he finds much of II,
And he saturatcs his system
This is not in oklahoma.
Where II only comes in bottles
And the cost is one small fortune
For bit Of saturation
Then It gets astraddlc Of him
Like a wringer on a washtub.
Ori-eyed gets he ON book beer:
Lies he down within the gutter
with his head below his pedals.
Looking wltcd like a radish

Chief Of Chemistry Bureau Shows Defects
 Of Pure Food Law

Mobile. Ala, June 19-The words stguaranteed under the food and drugs
 act~ on label are no assurance that
 according to Dr., Carl L.. A1sberg,
 chief of the Bureau of Chemistry, who spoke here to-day before the Assoeia-
 ton of American Food, Dairy and
 Drug officials. pr. A1sberg was speaking of the Limitations of the fed- eral bureau under the pure food law, appealing for closer cooperation be- tween federal and state authorities and for uniformity of laws in the va- rious states, based on the national law, looking to a less frequently mis- branded and to better food and drug supply.
 When the average mother buys a for her baby" he declared, tsthe word -condensed' on the can gives her no positive information as to the volume of real milk that has been reduced to the compass of the can One brand may be highly concentrated. and an- other be only slightly condensed from it's original milk state. We chemists. of course. can do a complicated little sum with the butter fat percentages and the statement of solid contents shown on the label and get the an- swer. The average consumer, how ever, either cannot or will not do so, and the average mother with a baby. has no time to do it, even if she had the necessary knowledge.''
 The food and drugs act. Dr. Alsberg asserted mot only does not give the departm ment of agriculture power to act in many vital1y important mat ters, but actually prohibits its inter vention in many things that call aloud for immediate remedy. The people at large do not understand the linni-| tations under which we act, nor do they realize that frequently we are even more disgusted than they at our inability to do things that we are more than anxious, but helpless le- gally, to undertake.
 Take the mere matter of the words on the label Guaranteed under the Food and Drugs Act,''' said pr. Alsberg. These still mean to many people that the bureau of chemistry has analysed the product and declar- ed it to be good, and this belief un- doubtedIy leads many people to buy defective foods under misplaced con fdence. Nor is this belief limited wholly to the ignorant. Within a cal schools have written to know what we meant by guaranteeing this or that product which they had found to be defective"
 pr. Alsberg then explained that the word ''guaranteed'' on a can of soup or on a bottle of nerve tonic did not mean that the bureau of chem istry had seen and analysed 1t, but that the manufacturers put it on sim ply with the idea of protecting the jobber or retailer. All that the
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1913-06-21

guarantee legend does, he continued is to make it possible to prosecute the
 manufacturer if the goods are found to be in violation of the food and drugs act. When merchant guar anteeS a hat, he said, it 'tenables the
 purchaser to invoke civil procedure
 to recover his money if the article is not as represented. The guaran- ty provided by the food and drugs act has no more effect as to the quality of the article guaranteed.''
 Secretary Houston, he announced,
 '1s in full sympathy with the enforce
 ment of the law and would appre-
 ciate Information concerning fraud
 in foods and drugs which cannot now
 be reached either under state or fed era1 laws, so that the needed chan ges might be brought to the attention
 of congress with recommendation for their passage.
 Constructive cooperation and practical collaboration with all agen- cies interested in securing for the people larger supply of better and purer foods and drugs" said Dr. As berg was the policy of the departme ent in enforcing the law. Under this pol icy" he declared. Eve are proceed ing more vigorously than ever against the violators of the law, and are pushing many important cases which will establish far-reaching prece- dents.'s
 The doctor then went on to say that the federal power to compel the adoption of it's regulations Is limited wholly to foods and drugs entering interstate commerce." He urged, therefore. ''unifornity in food and drug laws in. all the states. It cer-I tainly would seem possfb1e,'' he con- tinued. flor the states and the United States to agree on set of require ments that would be stringent enough to secure pure food and drugs, and yet entirely just enoughl to the pro- ducers and flexible enough for the pe- cuiiar conditions in different geo. graphical sections. This does notI necessarily mean that each state must adopt identical statutes; but at least these statutes can be fully intersus- taining and free from contradictory provision. One result would be to relieve the several states from dupli- cation of costly analyses. I realize that I am talking a bit mI11enniany, but 1t will do us no harm to give thought to the establishment of an ideal food procedure for the entire United States
