LETTER TO EDITOR

Editor Day Book: The local unions
of hotel and restaurant employees in
st. Louis, Mo-, together with the
Trades and Labor Assembly, are COM
PEELED to fight the wet interest of that
city in order to get recognition.
And at present it is a fight to the
bitter end in Missouri to bring the
employees under the protection of the
American Federation of Labor.
In Chicago the Saloon Restaurant
Keepers Association is back of the
Henrici Co., endeavoring to break the
organization of the culinary workers
and bakers. -.
1t was admitted on the witness
stand that John Vogelsang, president
Of the Saloon Restaurant Keepers
Association, was the man who had to
be seen in regards to unionizing the
Heinrich Co.
Under the name of the United So
ciety, this wet outfit have been fight
ing every labor measure everywhere.
In Springfield the zone day rest in
seven bill" was defeated by them; the
woman's ten-hour bill was carried to
the Supreme Court; the 9-hour bill
was killed; the initiative, referendum
and recall was defeated by the same
outfit, and every other labor measure
under various names.
Now this wet outfit is in power in
this city. Harrison uses the police
powers and the Municipal Court,
while the State street stores, the
breweries, the National Employers
Association and the whisky trust
have united to stamp out this awful
peril of trades unionism. So organ
lied labor must take a stand right
now. The system Of vampirism,
seven-day slavery and other evils
must be rooted out if it can only be
done by bona fide trades union
agreement.

.ALHuMEN IN BAKING POWDER

y The use OF albumin in baking pow
der Is not regarded as dangerous
but Is regarded as similar to the
use of carrot juice i'm butter or col.
oring matter In cream or other sub.
stances not injurious, but intended
to mislead the public.
p The housewife is led to believe she
is purchasing a baking powder that
lwili save eggs Wen she buys albu.
mized baking powder. This is an
argument that appeals to the house.
wife, especially when eggs are high.
An examination discloses, however,
that there is only three tenths OF one
per cent of albumen in a can of bak-
Ing powder and while this small guam.
tity is sufficiently viscuous to assist
in demonstrating the baking powder,
1T must be regarded as of no effect
whatever as a leavening agency or as
food. Its use is to assist In the
sale.
Mr.. French introduced this bill at
the request of the National Food
and Drug Organization and similar
legislation has been enacted in var
ious states.
No sooner had this bill been intro
duced than Representative Broussard
OF Louisiana introduced a bill requir-
ing that all baking powder should
contain albumin. This bill was pre-
pared as part of the campaign
against the bill by Mr.. French. $50,
600 copies OF the Broussard bin have
been printed by concerns that are In
terested in albuminized taking pow
der and are being distributed through
out the country.
The committee on Interstate and
Foreign Commerce has the consldera-
ton of both these bills and has prom.
ised to hold hearings and consider
the legislation later on in the Con
gress.
II the Broussard bill should pass,
many contend that 1t would be in or
der to pass law requiring every far
mer to use a little carrot juice in
his butter to give it a proper color,
and every dairymar to use magnesia
in milk that does not seem to be rich
enough, and in other ways permit
manufacturers and producers to rec.
tify" their products so that they
will at least suit the public eye If
not the palate.

v. s. WARNS AGAINST ALLEGED
HOG CHOLERA CURES.

|
| Washington ID. C.-Evidence of
what appears to be we'll organic
ed campaign to delude the farmers
| throughout the country into buying
an alleged cure for hog cholera, I'M
der the impression that this has been
investigated and approved of by the
Omitted States government, has reach
ed the Department of Agriculture.
Articles praising this medicine, Ben
etol by name, are being sent wide
spread to newspapers. These artic-
les are so worded that 1t appears as
f the Department of Agriculture had
received reports from the state of
Minnesota showing that the medicine
had proved most beneficial. As a
matter of fact the one report receiv.
ed by the Department was an unoffle-
lal and unsolicited report sent presum.
ably by the promoters themselves.
fhe Department attaches no import
ance whatsoever to this statement.
1t has no reason to believe In the
efficiency of any proprietary cure
for hog cholera and does not recon-
mend any. Under certain conditions
it urges farmers to protect their
stock with anti.hog- cholera serum,
but that is all.
In connection with this attempt ii
may be said that the medicine, which
10 now put forward as good for hogs,
was advertised some time ago as a
means of killing tuberculosis, typhoid,
and cancer gems,H according to an
article published In the american |
Medical Association. At that time
it was asserted that the army was In
terested In It. AS a matter of fact |
the army was no more interested In |
it then than the Department OF Agri.
culture Is now.
In view of the evidence that the
attempt to create this false impress
sion is persistent and widespread, all
hog owners are warned to communi-
cate with the United States author
tiles before accepting as true any
statement that the Government re-
commends any treatment other than
the serum treatment already men
toned.

PROGRESSIVE FIGURES, PAST
AND PRESENT

Indiana, the odd doubtful state
which for years has been regarded
as the barometer of any approach:
ing change. is pointing emphaticaly
to Republican victory this fall Car.
ried by Republicans in recent years
in which they were so successful, it
swung SO strongly Democratic. two
years ago, that 1t wiped out the en-
tire congressional delegation which
had been 80 prominent In the nation s
affairs.
The recent primaries In the Hoos-
der State tell a palmer story than can
we'll be expressed in words of the
direction in which the Indiana politi.
cal tide is drifting and drifting fast.
The primary vote revealed almost
startling Republican gains and cor
responding Progressive and Democrat
lie losses. Perhaps the most signifi-
cant feature of the result of the pr.
maries this far is the terrific slump
in the Bull Moose vote. For instance
in Lake County, in which is located
the Industrial city OF Gary, the Pro-
gressive vote dropped from $3.50 In
1912 to mere $50 in this years
primary. The Democratic vote dwin-
died from 5136 in 1912 to 2250, and
the Republican vote increased from
5176 to over 64OO.
win H. Hays, the Indiana Republi-
can Chairman, reports that his ad.
vices indicate widespread dissatisfac-
tion throughout the state, with pres
emit conditions, not only in industrial
centers such as Gary, but through
out the agricultural sections. For ex
ample, in Lawrence county the Repa |
lican vote was nearly four hundred |
greater in the recent primary than
1t was in the primary of 1912, and
the primary in 1919 was held long I
before division developed in the Re
publican ranks. The Democratic
vote in Lawrence County dropped off
ninety per cent compared to that of
1872,

lean primary DIN Henry, Randolph |

THE SOUTHFOR THE

Some Reasons Why Dixie Should

Why the South ought to be the great
live stock country is set forth by the
Progressive Farmer crisply as follows:
II. crop of cowpeas. SOY beans.
peanuts or lespedeza call legumes)
may be grown the same season after
an oat crop is harvested. There lis
no better feed than oats, and cowpcas
and iespedeza are tho equal OF red
clover as hay producers; while peanuts
and SOY beans will produce as much
feed (concentrates) rs any crop grown
here or elsewhere.
4. so. y soil made rich by the growing
OF legumes and live stock farming will
make as much corn or silage per acre
as in the corn belt, and the same sea-
son produce crop of crimson clover
equal in feeding value to crop of red
clover.
SO. Our climatic conditions make us
cotton producing country. One OF
the by-products of the cotton crop is
cottonsecd meal, the cheapest protein
feed known. The South produces 49,
5000 bushels of cottonsced annually,
which pound for pound is superior to
corn in feeding value. If the South
could not have produced cotton she
would have grown live stock Just as
other sections have turned TO live stock.
where onc-crop systems depleted their
soils and forced them to do so
The South must grow live stock, be-
cause while it is possible TO build up
soil fertility without feeding live stock.
it not generally done, and cannot be
done as economically as by feeding the
legumes. which must be grown TO build
up the fertility, TO good live stock:
THE need Of the South is for men
who will study live stock raising as n
part OF their general farming system,
for there Is no reason why the South
cannot or does not grow live stock
more probably than any other section,
except that we have no. the men with
either the inclination or information
to do So"

that parcel post rates will still be
lower than the reduced express rates
That is true only as to small packages
five pounds and under, for short and
medium distances. and for packages up
TO twenty pounds for the shorter dis
tances. For longer distances the new
express rates begin to fall below the
parcel post rates at ten pounds and at
twenty pounds the express rates are
lower for most distances exceeding $50
