to cause dissensions among the nations
which were victorious in the war, those
nations should be most careful TO avoid
raising any questions which can be used
by propagandists seeking to make q
rupture.
Senator Borah. unfortunately, is
willing that there should be n rupture.
He has consistently objected to the par
ticipation Of the United States in the
settlement Of any Of the questions aris-
ing out of the war save as they directly
and Immediately affect this country.
II he had his way he would make q
separate peace with Germany, and the
rest of the world might go hang for all

only to those interested in his work
~ is the fact generally known that
the dairy and food commissioner is an
official of the past He disappeared a
year ago this month.
A newly created official. director of
the bureau of foods, has taken his
place. 1t is the old job under new
name.
1t is the sixth bureau of the Depart
ment of Agriculture created under the
reorganization undertaken by Doctor
Rasmussen.
The dairy and food commissioner
department was once losing PROPOSE
tion to the state. 1t is now handsomely
remunerative. The receipts of the de-
partment today are ten times as great
as they were twelve years ago.
Director James Foust tells me that
owing to the increased consumption of
oleonfargarine, occasioned by the high
cost of butter. the licenses for the sale
of oleomargarine last year exceeded
$500, 900.
With this the consumption of butter
has not only kept pace with previous
averages, but is greatly increased.
MIR. FOUST says that food violations
AH1 are usually most numerous in the
crowded and poorer sections of large
cities. The greatest amount of money
received in the way of fines was ST.. 900
for adulterated milk, or milk deficient
in fats and other constituents.
One of the curiosities Of Director
Foust's investigation was impure vine
gar, on which fines of $40 were col
lected.
Here are some Of the oddities
There are very few adulterations
or misbranding of staple food prepared
by manufacturers of recognized stand
ing.
The largest number of violations con.
sisted in the sale of decomposed food
unfit for consumption.
In the entire state only eleven cases
were found of the use of artificial col.
oring in food other than nonalcoholic
drinks.
Cider is the greatest and most popu
lar 'nonalcoholic" beverage. It isn't
cider in most cases and contains intoxi
eating ingredients.
There is very little cold storage Of
food for, profteering purposes, contrary
to popular belief.
