WHAT is wINE?" is DECIDED
Pure-Food Prohibits Use of Term
When Water is Added

Secretary Houston to-day decided
"what is wine" and made a pure-food
ruling of far-reaching Importance to
all domestic wine makers, particular
ly those in Ohio and California. 1t
prohibits the use of the name "wine"
on products made by the addition of
water to juice, pomace or pulp of
grapes. and defines wine to be "the
product of the normal alcoholic fer
mentation of the juice of the fresh
sound, ripe grapes with the usual Gel
lar treatment"
The new decision provides that
where any water is added to the
pomace of grapes it is not permissible
to label the product otherwise than as
imitation" wine, and effects all wines
made after June ", 1914.
lnasmuch as many winemakers
have prepared vintages in accordance
with the departments previous rules,
proceedings will not be recommended
by the department prior to June ~,
1916, for wine actually manufactured
prior to the date Of the decision.

CLINTON COUNTY ENTERPRISES

The Plattsburg Fair association
plans to have a calf feeding contest
for boys this year and is making the
very liberal offer of $3.50 divided into
eight prizes. The contest is open to
boys under 10 years living in Clinton
county and ii is specified that the calf
must be steer under twelve months
of age at the time Of the show. Paul
Culver, who has charge of the contest,
is a breeder of Angus cattle and will
be able to give the boys many valuable
suggestions. There had been a large
enrolment.
Calf feeding contests will help solve
the meat problem and every boy who
takes part in the Clinton county con-
test will be a winner whether he gets
a cash prize or not. The boy who
feeling the pride of ownership, watch
iEg closely its growth and develop
ment, is sure to learn lessons that will
prove valuable to him in years to
come. The Plattsburg Fair associa-
ton is to be commended and we hope
there will be large enrolment and
a successful contest. 1t is not too late
for other county fair associations to
take up the good Missouri
Ruralist.

SIGNIFICANT?

Was there any significance in Theo-
dore Roosevelt's blunt announcement
that he would not run for Governor
of New York and his immediate re-
tirement to the imperial suite of the
liner lmperator following that an
nouncement? Note, too, the regal
significance Of the liners name
Was there any hint in this that
he disagrees with Caius Julius Gaze
sar, who is supposed to have said.
Better be first in little Iberian vii
lage than to be second in Rome?
While the state of New York is hard
ly anybody's "little Iberian village"
the governorship of New York is
save by those whose minds are set
on much higher things.
I. r. is of the imperialistic trend
Zone like an Attila, he intrigued
like a Richelieu and he admits that
he would have settled the Pennsyl-
yania anthracite strike like q COM
bination dictator and war lord. Then,
too, as we have seen, he takes natur-
ally to imperial suites and imperial
sounding announcements.
New York Gubernatorial powers
look small and colorless to the man
who has been up on the mountain
and surveyed the kingdoms of earth
and the fairness thereof. In other
words, 7. X. is going to waste ne-
Their his voice. his energy nor his
time in stalking something small
when bigger game is on the hoof
and 1916 but two short years away.
