What. has been accomplished In Wis

ed IN other states by equally intelh-

authorities who have to do with the
enforcement of the pure food and drugs
act and with meat inspection insist
that one of the greatest obstacles IN
the way Of pure food articles Is the
failure of the states to take adequate
protective measures.
Health Of People Improved.
The health Of the people Of Wiscon-

states food legislation, according to
Mi. Aderhold. Government reports
show that state Is second in health.
Not only has there been successful
war waved on food adulteration by the
dairy and food department Of Wiscon-
sin. IL Mr.. Aderhold's assertions are
correct: not only have the food dopers
been to a large extent driven out. but
important work has been done toward
improving the sanitary conditions OF
