SENATE PASSES
PURE FOOD BILL
IS SENTTO HOUSE
Four Amendments Attach
ed to Wright’s House
. Bill
With four amendments attached, the
senate Wednesday morning passed the
Wright pure food bill.
Passage of the measure followed con
siderable debate, and an effort on the
part of Senator Bunn to have the bill
go over to next session, which Senator
Steed opposed In a very strong speech.
The flrit amendment was offered by
Senator Bunn, and relates to defining
when an article la misbranded. The
original bill required labeling an arti
cle showing "the quantity or propor
tion of any alcohol." It was amendsd
so as to Insert after alcohol “which la
In excess of the amount prescribed by
the United Stales pharmacopoeia or the
national formulary as a solvent or pre
servative.” ' It alao amends the same
section relative to labeling In consplc
uous letters such articles as contain
alcohol, morphine, opium, cocaine,
heroin, alpha or beta eucalne. chloro
form, cannabis lndlca, etc. The amend
ment requires the label to be as con
spicuous as Is required by the United
States law.
An amendment by Senator Crum ex
empts from labeling such goods as are
on hand when the bill becomes effect
ive. Another amendment by Senator
A. O. Blalock fixes the Inspection fee
per ton for feed stuffs at 10 cents In
stead of 20. All of the amendments
were adopted.
8enator Steed opposed them, be-
. luse, he thought, they would cripple
the effectiveness of the measure. Hi
thought particularly that the amend
ment relative to the quantity of alco,
hoi would make It possible fpr patent
medicine men to place any quantity
of alcohol they might choose In prepa
rations.
The but as amended was Immediately
transmitted to the house.

Perfectly natural. If you don't knew

Hundreds of business men asked
"Why This label 7” for years—before

Then they found the answer In cor

They have no doubt now. Why
