CAT is ALMOST AS BAD

The April bulletin Of the Iowa state
dairy and food commission which re-
Gently was issued. contains the follow
ing of interest to the grocers, bakers
and butchers of the state:
It will not suffice for the dealer to
tempt the purchaser with clean
front" and neglect all other parts Of
the building such as the cellar and
wareroom Horrible conditions are
many times found to exist in and
about stores which are advertised to
be and are said to be sanitary Deal
ers should bear in mind that it takes
more than sanitary front" to get
by in Iowa In the future and it is the
wish OF this department that the ad-
vice here given will be needed and
sanitary conditions put in practice at
once. not in part, but throughout the
entire establishment. BY doing this,
dealers will not only please and i'm
prove their trade, but they will i'm
prove their standing as citizens in
the community.
1t has come to the notice of this de-
partment that number Of dealers
have utterly failed to observe the san
itary law with regard to keeping in
proper condition certain parts of their
buildings, such as cellars and ware
rooms.

Cellar and store Rooms.

One OF the most important places
about food establishment or store
is the cellar and one Of the rs1s',ns
why 1t is so sadly neglected Is because
the customer is never allowed to sec
it. Even the inspector feels inclined
to shun 1t at times, because of the ter
rible and CHASTITY conditions ex1sins
there. 1t is too often n paradise tor
rats, mice and vermin, to say nothing
about its poor drainage, its lack Of
natural light and ventilation and its
general filth. shiftiess clerks and
sometimes the bosses" become Attic
ted with the habit OF throwing every
thing which is unsighty into the cellar
for the purpose of removing 1t from
the gaze of the customer, hence val
liable and costly cellar becomes
dumping place for filth which is left
to contaminate goods throughout the
store by the damp, musty and sick
ening doors which arise and permeate
the entire building.
The inspectors representing this
department until now have made San
itary inspections" mostly is the sell
ing department of the store while in
the future the inspectors will deal as
much and perhaps more with the eel
lar and ware room conditions than any
other part of the building. So 1t be-
hooves the dealer in order to escape
prosecution to get busy and place ev-
cry part of his building in compliance
with the sanitary law.
The Rat Pest.
One of the greatest and most dang
erous pests with which the world has
to combat today is the rodent. COM
monty known as the rat" Many
people engaged in handling food stuffs
have done absolutely nothing toward
rat elimination" Billions of dollars
are lost annually throughout the
world by allowing rats to mingle with
and dwell within the food supply, not
to speak of the lives lost each year
through fatal contamination given
food stuffs by this great death dealing
agent.
There are many ways and schemes
for eliminating rats from buildings.
This is borne out by the fact that
some dealers have thei; places of bus
iiness absolutely free from rodents
and vermip of all kinds while. on the
other hand. dealers can easily be
found who allow their buildings to be
used as veritable paradise for the
worlds greatest nuisance and enemy.
Dealers who are conducting breed
ing places for rats are inflicting
great wrong on their neighbors who
are trying to exterminate the animal,
az we'll as on innocent people who pur-
chase the foods over which rats have
feasted. played and scampered

Mrs. knudson lives south Of Randall.

Her husband died in 1856 and when the
estate was settled up the creditors were
paid just 6s cents on the dollar. Mrs.
Knudson then and there became pos
sessed of determination to some day
pay the amount remaining unpaid,
which was something over $500. She
was not obliged under the law to do
this, but her petition filed in court
states that it has been her Determine
