very ambitious and went TO Brattleboro,

so much that the firm was forced to
build a foundry in Greenfield, which was
very successful When Mr. Merriman
died Mr.. Tilden sold the business to the
b. b. Noyes company and bought the
interests of Mr.. Merrman at Hinsdale.
From that time the business kept in
ereasing.
About 10 years ago his foundry build

daunted his push and energy, and within
10 weeks he had a set Of modern build
ings erected ready to make castings.
He was very successful and had been
one of the leading manufacturers Of the
town
He was one of the most kind hearted
men, and no one worthy OF assistance
was ever turned away.
He was a member aud loyal supporter
of the Uuiversalist church and also a
member of Golden Rule lodge of Masons,
of which he was a past master. He was
very public spirited and had the interests
of the town at heart. He made many
visits to Concord and was instrumental
in having the New England Power com

SO-CALLED OLIVE OIL
FALSELY LABELED
Department Of Agriculture Warns House
wives to Read Labels Care
fully.

Several seizures have been made and
a number Of prosecutions instituted as
result of campaign inaugurated by
the officials charged with the enforce
ment Of the federal food and drugs act
against the interstate shipment of adul-
terated and misbranded olive oil
Consumers are advised by the bureau
of chemistry, United States department
of agriculture to read carefully the la
bells of all containers offered to them as
containing olive oil to determine wheth-
er the manufacturer actually claims that
the product is olive oil or merely sug-
gests it by misleading devices. Some of
these deceptively labeled products are
sold by itinerant peddlers.
Cottonseed oil, corn oil peanut oil,
soy-bean oil, and other vegetableNoils are
wholesome, paIatable oils but they should
be bought under their own names at
prices much lower than the prices at
which olive oil is usually sold.
Owing to the scarcity and high price of
olive oil a number of dealers were put
ting on the market cotton seed, corn,
and vegetable oils labeled as olive oil.
As the result of a large number of seiz-
ures of these products and prosecutions
pending against the responsible parties,
the practice has been generally discon-
tinued. Some dealers, however, are en-
deavoring to continue TO reap the large
profits involved and hope to escape the
penalties Of the food and drugs act by
so wording the labels of their product as
to convey the impression to the consum-
er that the product is olive oil without
stating directly on the label that it is
olive OIL
These products are commonly labeled
as Salad OiI' or liable Oil" or some
other indefinite kind of oil. On the la
bells are displayed conspicuous pictures
of olive trees, or maps of Italy or other
devices intended to suggest olive oil.
In some instances, the words Cotton
seed Oil" or Corn Oil" are printed in
very small type in an ineonspicuous place
on the label, A cursory reading Of the
label, such as is usually given by retail
purchasers, would lead the average per-
son to believe that the product was olive
oil. Only the most careful scrutiny and
exact reading will reveal that the prod
uct is not labeled olive oil, and in fact
is not oliye oil.
The practice Of deceptive labelling even
though no directly false statements are
made is. in the opinion of the officials, a
violation. of the food and drugs act.
Seizures are being made and prosecutions
instituted TO check also this form Of de-
ception and misbranding.

EXTRA WEAR
FROM SHOE

"A year ago / had my shoes re-
soled with Ne0lin Soles. The soies
are still in service, and it looks as if
/ would not be able to wear them out,
because the uppcrs are going first, "
said w. c. Dickinson, of New Haven,
Conn.
Good repair shops everywhere carry
these tough and durable soles. See
for yourself how long they last by
having them put on a p2ir Of old shoes.
Or if you are in need of new shoes, buy
them with Neolin Soles. They cost
no more than shoes that give less
wear, and you need fewer pairs. They
come in many styles for men, women,
and children.
Ne6lin Soles are created by Science
to be comfortable and waterproof, as
we'll as long-wearing. They are made
by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.,
