PRESERVING POWDERS.
Warming Against Dangerous PreserV.
Powders and Canning Com
pounds.

Special to The Herald and News.
Washington, D. c., May 1.-THE at
tention of the department of agricul-
ture has recently been called to the
widespread use, especially in rural
communities, of salicylic acid in put
ting up preserves. The mead of large
drug and chemical supply house states
that people living in southwest Vir-
ginia, North and South Carolina, Ken
lucky, Tennessee, and western Geor-
gia, have been purchasing salicylic
acid in one-fourth pound packages
for number Of years and that this
practice has grown to an enormous ex-
tent. This dealer states further that
only few weeks ago he received an
order from one wholesale grocer for
so gross of these goods.
The department is aware that this
practice is not confined to saicylic
acid under it's own name alone, but
that large quantities Of this acid, and
of boric acid as we'll, are sold under
fancifuI names as preserving powders
or canning compounds at prices which
are much in excess Of their real value.
In the directions for use, the house
wife is told 70 fill the jar with the
fruit or vegetables, cover with water
and add a teaspoonful of the powder.
1t is true that these powders may
prevent the decay of the fruE or
vegetable, but they also encourage un-
cleanly or careless work, and their
excessive use may be attended with
very serious effects upon the health.
Salicylic acid is a medicine of the
greatest value in acute articular rheu-
nIatism and certain other diseases.
It is we'll known as poisonous sub
stance, and one of the evils which
may accompany its useis arrangement
VI Luc ulSCoLlOLA. IL 10 tHOA OANAS PAS-A
that it's extensive use in food may lead
to disturbance of disgestion and health.
1t is entirely practicable to put up
bo h fruits and vegetables in such
a manner that they will keep indef-
initely by sterilizing the products by
means of heat, and there is no ex-
cuse for running any risk by the use
of preserving powders. The depart
ment of agriculture has issued the fol-
lowing Farmers Bulletins on canning
and preserving:
F. B. 2O3 Canned Fruit, Preserves
and Jellies.
F. B. 35s Canning Vegetables in the
Home
F. B. Canning Tomatoes at Home
and in Club Work.
These bulletins, which may be oo-
tanned without cost by applying to
the Division of Publications Of the
department, give exact directions for
canning and preserving foods without
the use of preserving powders or can
ring compounds.

To Bring Pressure.
Reports were current that strong

Grieved But Strong.

President Wilson stood with head
bowed. His deeply lined face showed
the grief and solemnity Of the oc-
casion, but ia general mis- appear
ance gave no indication of the recent
strain at Washington He delivered
his eulogy of the dead in low, clear
voice that carried to the far.hest part
of the field. 1t was followed by a
prayer by Rabbi Stephen Wise and a
benediction by John Chidwick, chap
lain of the old battIeship Maine.
Three volleys fired by the marines,
the final melody of ''Taps' and the
funeral services were completed. They
had lasted little less than an hour.
During this time the oppressive heat
proved too much for several specta-
tors who tainted and had to be car
ried away on stre:chers. One ma
rine was among them.
For half an hour after the service
the caissons lay as they had been
placed, in front of the stand, where
all could view them, then they were
carried into the naval barracks. Three
were taken back to the Montana,
which steamed out Of he har5o- for
Bos- on late in the day. Relatives
claimed the three bodies of these,
whose home was New York, and prep
arations were made to send the other
bodies to their separate destinations.

Not a Large Crowd.

In the naval parade ground the
demonstration found small physl-
cal compass. Less than 10000 were
able to pack themselves into the in
closure and face the stand where stood
the president with barred head. Mayor
Mitchell was at his right and Secre-
;ary Daniels Of The navy at his left.
With sharp precision the bluejack-
cts, their white hats catching the dull
sunlight, drew up into military forma7
ton before the Stand. Al the same
time the II caissons, draped with
flags and banked with flowers, con-
tributed by the sailor comrades Of
the dead, were laid directly in front
of the sand. A moment later the
crowd was permitted to enter and i'm
mediately it covered the entire field.
The band of the battleship Texas
played softly Nearer, My God, to
Thee" and Naval Chaplain Cassard
began his invocation. In referring to
the dead heroes, he prayed it would
not be necessary to make further sac
rifce on the altar o. patriotism.
Secretary Daniels then turned to
the president and read the names of
the 19 men in whose honor the fun
eral was held and delivered a brief

Directly behind The calSsons, which
stretched out in single file, were the
carriages of the president, Gov. Glynn,

been announced that he would pro-
ceed direct from the Pennsylvania
station to the navy yard.
All along the route the street was
black with spectators. Windows and
roofs, half completed steel frames of
buildings, all were crowded. There
were thousands of policemen; one
every 10 feet of sidewalk. During the
entire ceremony there was not a sug-

BACK BAY WINS AGAIN.
Triumphs Over Pan Zareta Closing
Day at Woodbine Track.

TORONTO, Ont. September 2e.-Fall
racing at Wodbine wound up this aft
ernoon with the running Of a splendid
card. Chief interest centered In the
meeting of Back Bay and Pan Zareta.

beating each other all season, and both
ruled about equal choices in the ma
chimes, but in the running of the race
Back Bay triumphed by a short mar
gin. The 122 pounds carried by Pan
Zareta proved too great for the Texas
speed marvel.
