BREAD INSPECTIONS

If the bakers of Kentucky, for their
own protection and that of the peo
pie of the state, desire it, the Blu.
reau of Foods, Drugs and Hotels OF
the State Board of Health will
adopt for all bread inspections the
standards of the Federal Joint Com.
mittee on Definitions, Miss Sarah H.
Vance, director of the bureau, an
nounced yesterday at Louisville.
Efforts will be made Immediately
to familiarize all bakers of the state
with these definitions and later ex-
pressions from them will be sought
to determine the advisability of the
adoption.
These definitions define wheat
bread or white bread as that made
in the form of loaf or rolls, or
other units smaller than loaf, by
baking wheat bread dough. 1t must
contain, one hour or more after bak-
ing, not more than SO per cent mois-
ture. The moisture limitation for
milk bread is the same, but here
there is provision for replacing not
less than one-third OF the water in
gredient with milk or its equivalent
In rye bread at least one-third of
the wheat -four ingredient must have
been replaced by rye -four. For rails
in bread there is a provision that
each pound of the baked product
must have had added TO it at least
three ounces of raisins, and sweeten-
ing and shortening ingredients are
permitted to be used in greater guam
tity than in wheat bread.

nEIRlooM AS DONATION

Director s. W. McGill. in charge of
the Presbyterian movement for Chris
tian education in Kentucky, has re-
ceived a gift for the cause that he
values as highly as any contribution
ever made for Christian education,
according to his statement. The d.
rector has in his Louisville office a
little pocket book, old fashioned and
worn, evidntly more than half cen
fury old. II came to him with a lit
tie note attached, but no signature
In the purse were two gold pieces
of one dollar and two-fifty denomina
lions, and the letter said this purse
and the money had been in the fam
lily at least four generations. and the
original owner had left 1t to be pass
ed down and kept until dire neces
sity arose.
"The time has come" said the let
ter, when l consider a dire neces
sity here. The money is, therefore
given for the cause of Christian edu
cation"
THAT" said Mr.. McGnl. repre-
sents true sacrifice and true vision
of what our church needs. onl!
wish every Presbyterian in Kentuck!
could see the cause as did this one.

he FORGOT BASIS OF VALUES
The New York Times says:


Evidently w. l.. George does not
devote all his attention to the study
Of women, which is his specially.
While he was over here he took the
time to learn something about our
telephone system, and now that he
is home again he has been writing
about it. He has collected an impress
sive array of facts and figures, and,
like everybody else who has comsar-
ed the American telephone service
with that of Europe, he proclaims the
superiority of the former. He fails,
however, to see just where the super
iority lies, and he goes wrong in his
comparison of British and American
prices paid by subscribers.
The differences he found, though
in favor of our small subscribers and
against our large ones, were but a
few dollars a year. That is because
Mr.. George forgot that what the tel
ephone subscriber buys is not the
privilege of calling central" but that
Of having communication with other
people, and the greater the number
Of people to whom he can talk at his
need or convenience, the more is his
telephone worth to him.
He noted that in England there is
one telephone for every forty-seven
persons. while in the United States
there is one for every eight That in
itself, with equal efficiency of ser
vice, would make the American tele-
phone six times the more valuable,
but it is common knowledge that the
American service, though all of us
growl about it more or less, is by far
the best given anywhere in the world.
That makes it the cheapest in the
world, for both large and small sub
scribers, and refutes the few in
stances given by Mr.. George of low
er telephone rates in England than
here"

HOW TO SAFEGUARD PUBLIC
AGAINST SPOILED CANNED FOOD

Food dealers may safeguard the
public against unwholesome foods by
making careful Inspections of all
lots received before they are offered
for sale, says the Bureau of Chemis-
try of the United States Department
of Agriculture. Although the food
canning industry is now so well de-
veloped that most of the products
put up in this way are safe and good.
the safety of the consumer may be
still further increased IL the retailer
keeps in mind the following. sugges-
tions:
Inspect every container when you
open the case.
No swell" springer" ripper"
or "leaker" should be accepted or
sold by you. In glass, examine the
cover and the seam, inspect the con-
tents for signs of spoilage. Do not
tolerate any spoiled product upon
your shelves.
II a lot shows many swells. reject
the lot. Do not take the responsible
ity of sorting a bad lot of cans and
selling those apparently good.
You are entitled to demand a we'll
exhausted pack, every can showing
good vacuum, with clean and bright
metal.
Your customers are entitled to the
same protection. Even a trace Of
swell should prevent the sale of a
can to any customer.
No spoiled can should be repro
cessed.
The removal of every container
showing a sign OF swell will go a
long way toward preventing food
poisoning.
Rigorous Withdrawal of all packs
showing extensive spoilage is imper
alive.

Gone are days-oh, cruel times

Where we laid the remains of the

Or carelessly carved when they made

On our system of shuffled dealing or

There have been changes-yes, you
tell 'em, boy,
For rust has encrusted the fountains

The spiders now spinning his cank-
