perpetrated upon the farmers of the
state in the sale Of so-called lnseed oil
and turpentine, and that he proposes to
start prosecutions
What has linseed oil and turpentine
goa to do with pure food and dairying ?
Isn't il the duty of the commissioner
to look after the welfare Of the con
sumers of food and dairy products,
rather than that of that Of the consum-
ers of oil and turpentine And isn't it
improper TO indulge in vacation at a
time when the consumers Of foodstuirs,
including dairying products, are being
imposes upon ? If there is any mean
ing to the title of the position which
Mr.. Weigel holds, don't you think he
is out of order in interesting himself in
oil and .urpentine?
