The first case that has arisen since the Food and Drugs Act as held to apply to meat food products resulted in the seizure and confiscation in Chicago, 111, on July 28, 1913, of 40650 pounds of hog casings, shipped to that point from the State of Iowa. ‘The seizure was made on the allega- tion that the hog casing was unfit for human consumption. Let the good work continue. A good road for the farmers who live near Nary s a necessity. They should have it and will soon get it. ‘The crops in that vicinity are all of them record breakers.

Office Of Markets In the appropriation bill for the current fiscal year, Congress appro- priated the sum of $50,000, “to en- able the Secretary of Agriculture 'to acquire and to diffuse among the 0| People of the United States useful in- formation on subjects connected with the marketing and distribution of farm products.” Under this' clause the Office of Markets, established in May with Charles J, Brand as Chief, is being organized in the Department of Agriculture. The purposes of this office are to . investigate present systems of marketing and distribut- ing farm products, to aid producers, manufacturers, and consumers in devising and maintaining economic and efficient systems of storage, transportation, marketing, and util- zation, to devise methods for reduc- ing or elminating the wastes and un- necessary expenses of present sys- tems of marketing and distribution, and to assist, so far as lies within the authority of Department of Agri- culture, in the organization and ex- tension of cooperative production, marketing distribution, and buying. The Office of Markets is as yet only in proless of organization. The U. S. Civil Service Commission has just held examinations to secure six spe- cialists in marketing perishables, in organization, transportation, cooper- ative accounting, ete., and it is ex- pected that the investigational work of the office will be gotten under way in the near future. No publica- tions have yet been issued, and the office has no representatives of any kind stationed outside of Washing- ton. Information relative to market- ing conditions in various parts of the country is solicited, and should be addressed to the Office of Markets, Department of Agriculture, Wash- ington, D. C. munity as well as to the city itself. . The Young Bushers Dream ' (By Chappie Wright) Young Josh Spriggins on a !lrm one "day, Sighed and said why should I work this way, Up here pitching hay in this old loft, Working my good old right arm off. 2. I see in the papers where they say, big pay And I am going to quit this farm thats all, I am going to the City and pitch some ball. 3. Landed ' in the City and found the base ball yard And presented the manager with his card. Signed Joshua Spriggins from Ten- nesse, Walt. Johnson or Mathewson have nothing on me. Very soon J. Spriggins was on the Job,’ Pitching to Jackson, Speaker and Cobb. . ‘What they did to him was a measly shame, And he will never look or feel the same. 5. We a run to the good, the enemy Wwith one on base, The catcher he signaled some high one’s to waste I've got cha Steve, old sprig did reply, You mean some nice one’s about walist high. 6. Right over the base he sailed the ball, The slugger he drove it over the wall. Joshua waited to see no more, The bugs grew wild and after him tore. 7. O’er the very same wall old spriggins flew, Ducking and Dodging everything they threw. He soon was safe and out of harm, And buying a ticket for the farm. 8. Back on the farm he is contented there, Feeding the cattle and doing his share. ‘Willing to work. his right arm off, At pitching Dad’s hay up in the loft. .
