Violaters of Feed
Law Prosecuted

Prosecutions have just been ordered
by the Bureau Of Chemistry, Pennsyl.
vania Department of Agriculture, in
six cases for the sale of misbranded
and falsely guaranteed feeding stuffs
that included four brands of dairy
mixed feeds and two of cottonseed
meal. The dairy feeds were labeled
with false statements of composition,
two of which were found to be def
Gent in protein and fat. One brand
was discovered to be adulterated with
rs per cent excess flax plant refuse,
containing twice as much fibrous, low
grade by-product feed material as is
permitted by the feeding stuffs law.
The other dairy feeds also contained
an excessive amount of low-grade
fibrous materials in the form of oat
bulls, therefore being classed under
the law as adulterated.
The cottonseed products were sold
as cottonseed meals, containing 10 per
cent excessive amounts of cottonseed
bulls, a violation of the law. Low
grade cottonseed products containing
an excessive amount of hulls are in
reality mixtures of bulls and meal and
are required to be labeled, registered
and sold as cottonseed feeds. Feed
dealrrs are cautioned against handling
these low-grade materials.

1t is not hard to make rose jar, and
a very few bushes will yield a good
harvest of petals.
Gather the petals just before or just
after they fall. Don't let them dry
or wither. Never pick them with the
dew on, as this may make them mold
and get musty. Now pack them in
stone jar in layers two inches deep,
sprinkling over each layer about two
tablespoonfuls of dry fine salt. Add
your petals as they come, alternating
with the salt until the jar is full Keep

A Pillow for Boudoir
You can make a fragrant little pil

bushes to shed their petals. Dry them
in the shade on sunny day. Before
putting them in the pillow scatter a
teaspoonful of powdered orris root

else some oil of rose. 1t is best to
encase the petals in slip of stout

One can make ones own sachet
from rose petals by mixing with the
rose leaves which have been dried by

quantity of powdered orris, and one

fragrant mixture to put into the little
