THE LAW AS TO THE SALE
OF MEATS IN NEWBERRY

Since there has seemed to be con-
siderable misunderstanding on the
part of a number of people, particu-
larry among our farmers, as to the
sale of fresh meats in the city Of New
berry, l am authorized by the couh-
ell to make the following statement
as to the law.
Regular butchers, and those en-
gagged in the buying and selling of
meats for profit, are required to pay
city license and the animals slaugh-
tered by them are to be slaughtered
at sanitary butcher-pen under the
supervision of the board of health.
Farmers have the right to sell
fresh meats Of any kind, as well as
any other products of the farm, grown
or produced by them, in the city of
Newberry at any time without the
payment of any license. And farmers
are not required to have their animals
slaughtered at any particular butcher
pen. Of course, farmer cannot buy
animals or produce to sell at retail
without paying the regular license.
The law as to the sale Of any dis
eased or unwholesome meat, Oh other
foodstuff, applies to all persons and
there is heavy penalty for violation
of the law. The health authorities
have the right at any time to require
an examination and inspection of any
meat or produce suspected to be dis
eased or unwholesome.
l trust this statement will be un-
derstood by all and that our farmers
will not hesitate to bring their meats
and produce to Newberry for sale.
may add that we request them to CO.
operate with the officials of the city IN
enforcing the laws as to the preven-
ton of the sale of diseased meats.
Respectfully,
Eugene S. Bease, Mayor.

A HISTORY OF WEST VIR-

The Intelligencer is in receipt OF a
copy OF a prospectus OF a forthcoming
history OF the State Of West Virginia
by Professor James Morton Callahan Of
the State University. In the years past
a number Of more e less ambitious his
tories Of West Virginia have been writ
ten. some OF them by capable men. but
on the whole it can be said that no very
complete study OF the early history OF
the state has been made, and no entire
ly satisfactory presentation OF the
causes which brought about the dis
ruption Of the old state and the creation
Of the new state OF West Virginia has
ever been published. Professor Callahan
Is we'll equipped to undertake this i'm
portant work. and the history OF West
Virginia which he will produce within
the next few years will undoubtedly be
most comprehensive. as well as liter
