FOOD PERSONALITIES NOT AD-
VISABLE

With the passage Of the Federal
Pure Food Law enacted BY the Con-
gress Of the United States. many
poisonous chemical preservatives and
|coloring materials were prohibitcd
from the use Of manufacturers, Tut
there are still some preservativcs
which may be employed under SPECIAL
regulations. None Of them. however,
ore advisable or necessary from a
health standpoint. The methods Of
preserving food by canning, steriltz-
ing. refrigeration and drying have i'm
proved so much within recent years
that there seems to be no special necd
| for these chemicals. Some Of those
used are alum, benzoic, acid. benzo-
ate Of soda, boron. coal tar dyes. cop
per. sulphate, formaldehyde, formic
acid. salicylacetic acid. .saltpeter and
sulphur dioxide.
At present the Pure Food Law per-
mits the use Of these preservatives in
small quantities II the fact is so
stated on the label Of the package.
Alum is sometimes used In curing
meats. to harden vegetables for pick
ling. and in baking powders. It Is not
supposed to be harmful In small
quantities, but its use In food has been
discouraged in this country and en-
tirely forbidden In Germany.
Benzoic acid end benzoate Of soda
are sometimes used in preserving the
fruits, butter. fish and ketchup. DR..
E.:.-.vey Wiley, who did such valuable
work as the former chief Of the Blu
reau of Chemistry for the Department
of Agriculture, found that their adj
ministration was followed by the dis
tinct loss of weight caused by some
disturba- &c within the body.
Boron compounds are sometimes
used in preserving meat. fish. fruit
JUICE and condensed milk. It has been
stated that these compounds admin.
istered in email doses for long time
create disturbances Of appetite and
digestion. The principal danger OF
the use of boron compounds is that
when used on partly decayed pro-
ducts, they appear to be fresh and
Wholesome.
The coal tp~ f'''e- vary consider
aoly as to their wholesomeness, some
being comparatively harmless. They
may mislead the customer into be-
lieving that the attractive coloring of
foods and drinks is natural.
Copper, sulphate and other salts of
IL PIPER are sometimes used In prepar-
ing peas, string beans, spinach and
other green ve~~'"h'es. Copper sui
phatc is sometimes used in purifying
water Of the larger cities although its
use has been replaced to large ex-
tent with calcr.n gas which evapor-
ates readily.

Stirred by the expulsion from vari-

eds themselves how much, If any,
their collegiate careers are hampered
or helped by matrimony, and whether
they believe the expulsion for mar
riage Is just.
It's the same old story of human
sophistry In the results. The married
students insist that marriage only
spurs one on to greater scholastic
activity, knowing that knowledge
means good jobs which are essential

distraction from collegiate activities.

COTTON GROWERS
ASK LARGE LOANS
Farm Board Told SO, 900, 900
to $4,000, 900 Needed for !
Crop This Year.

A loan of 100000 to 100000 is
needed to aid in the orderly disposition
of this years cotton crop it was repre-
sented to the Federal Farm Board by
a group of trustees OF the American
Cotton Growers Exchange. .-
The board was informed the money
was necessary to supplement loans OBJ
tainable from the intermediate credit
system and local banks to pay of cot
ton growers, who desired to exercise
their option of collecting from the CO.
operatives with which they had de-
posted their crop.
Conditions Named.
Information available at the boards
Offices indicated that the cotton mems
representations had been received IA
yorably, but that the board stipulated
a number of conditions which would
first have to be fulfilled. The exact
nature of these conditions was not dis
closed.
The group, which conferred with the
board included C. o. MoSer OF Dallas,
president of the American Cotton Crow
ers Exchange; A. D. Waldauer OF Mem
phiS, Sam Morley of Oklahoma, Charles
G. Henry of Arkansas and U. b. bia-
lock. all identified with the cooperative
cotton marketing movement.
This group also came to washington
with plans for the formation of COM
modify advisory council for cotton, but
these plans have not taken sufficient
shape to warrant the board acting upon
them at this time. It was regarded
as likely, however, that If any extern
| Sive loan is extended the board would
consider the appointment OF an ad-
visory council desirable.
CO-Operatives Progress.
Board officials previously had secured
information which they said showed
! the cooperative marketing movement
! had progressed exceptionally we'll among
the cotton growers. The American Cot
| ton Growers Exchange is a national
| federation of Is co-operatives.
Three important co-operatives do not
| belong to the exchange. They are the
Staple Cotton COOPERATIVE Association
of Greenwood Miss: the Arkansas
Farmers Union Cotton Growers Asso-
citation of Little Rock, Ark, and the
Pecos Valley Cotton Growers ASSocia-
ton of Roswell, N. Mex. If commodity
council were appointed, 1t was conSid-
cred certain that all these groups would
be accorded representative.
President MoSer said that the cotton
| co-operativeS desired to use local bank
! ing facilities wherever possible to finance
the growers optional demands, but that
| in some cases interest rates were be-
| coming prohibitive For this reason
| he said, a stable loan from the Farm
Board would be Of great aid at this
time.
