GUERNSEY HERD
SHOWN AT FAIR
Live Stock Exhibit at Joslin
Next Month Promises to
Set a New Record.

William Butterworth's herd of fancy
Guernsey cattle will be one of the big
live stock attractions at the JOslin fair
to be held Sept ell This herd, which
is the only one of the kind in this
vicinity, will be on exhibition all three
days.
More than enough live stock to fill
the display sheds is already entered
for the prizes and it is likely that
some of the animals will have to be
sheltered in tents.
An expert live stock Judge has been
engaged this year for the first time.
Heretofore the judges have been local
men and there has been some dissat.
isfaction, probably grOundless. On the
last day of the fair a special train
will be run from Moline over the Bur

Bulletin on Vinegar.

INSPECTION, BOISE

1t is against the laws of Idaho
to sell vinegar from any cask or
key, unless the said cask or key
is labeled or stenciled on the head
with the true name of the vineg-
ar, name of the article or articles
from which it was made, and the
name and address Of the manu-.
facturer. The placing of print
ed label on the cask or keg is nei-
ther branding or stenciling,
Dealers should see that the
head of the cask or key contain
ing this information is on top,
exposed to the view of the con-
sumner, for whose benifit this in
formation is required by law.
All dealers should get guaran-
tees. from the wholesaler, iobber
or manufactures, that the vine
gars they buy comply with the
pure food laws of Idaho. We
have lately been clearing off the
market a lot of distilled vinegar,
colored to initiate the cider vine
gar, Idaho farmers who are
manufacturing good grade of
pure cider vinegar from their APP
pies are going to be protected
from this spurious stuff, and no.
tice IS thereby given to all inter-
ested that the laws of Idaho
deems a product adulterated if it
is mixed, colored or stained in a
manner whereby damage or in
teriority is concealed. In our op-
inion the addition OF colorIng
matter to any type of vinegar is
for the sole purpose ofconcealing
lnferiority and deceiving the pub
lie, and is therefore prohibited.
