Commissioner Price Makes
Suggestions in His Report

has just issued his annual report. The
report is a most interesting one and
contains some wise and timely recon-
mendations by heads of the sub-de
partments. They are as follows:
State Food Inspector P. A. Meth
vim recommends:
Il recommend that the food AMI
drug act be amended so as to make
dealers responsible for the sale of
impure foods where it is possible for
them to ascertain its fitness for hu-
man consumption:
"That it be amended so as to permit
the Commissioner of Agriculture to
make disposition of foods unfit for
food without the delay of court pro-
cedure:
THAT it be amended so as to make
all feed stuffs sold for feed subject to
the feeding stuff requirements:
THAT it be amended so as to make
the sale of artifcially bleached grains
Illegal in the state:
That it be amended SO as to prevent
the coloring of distilled vinegar.
Il recommend the enactment of a
law providing for the testing of scales,
weights and measures used in the
state; it is needed.
Il recommend that the food and
drug act be amended so that prosecu-
lions for violations can be brought
against food violators without grand
jury proceedings.
Il recommend that you rule that all
bread be wrapped before leaving bak-
cries; it is needed.
Il recommend you rule the restaur
ants and eating houses serving food
for pay, post placards where they
serve butterine and process butter to
guests"
Drug Law Changes Suggested.
T. A. Cheatham, state drug inspee.
tor, makes the following recommen-
dation:
Some provision ought to be made
for the sale of insecticides and bug
deaths in the state by general dealers
and unlicensed druggists. 1t does not
seem just to compel farmers, market
gardeners and orchardists to ride in
some instances twenty miles in order
to purchase these preparations from
a licensed druggist, or have their
crops and orchards destroyed by in.
sects. I have found the new federal
anti-narcotic law to be of great ser
vice to me in the enforcement of the
state anti-narcotic law, and while it
is being frequently violated, in many
instances it is due to misunderstand-
ing of what the federal law demands.
l find the quality of drugs sold in the
various markets of the state to be
exceptionally good. find the number
o. violations for the year fewer than
the proceeding year and general dis
position on part of all to comply with
the law"
An important feature of the publ
cation is the report of DR.. p. +.
Bahnsen on the tick eradication work.
On this DR.. Bahnsen says:
The work of tick eradication is by
far the most important task before us
in order to establish the cattle indus
try on profitable basis. The cattle
industry has never flourished or pros
pered in any section where the cattle
tick existed. Tick infestation has
cost the South countless millions Of
dollars in the past. Every effort to
introduce fine-blooded animals in ord
er that better grade of cattle might
be produced has proven futile. More
than so per cent of the high-priced
cattle thus introduced have died in
from ten days to three months after
being introduced, and the remaining 10
