Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - April 21, 1877, Winnipeg, Manitoba Saturday a jul 21, 1877. A third supplement to Tho annual Rotor of the minister of Inland Revenue has jus Boon Laid before i m i Ament and show what has Boon done under Tho act to vent Tho adulteration of wont into operation on Tho 1st january. 1875, though Tho order in Council Tho regulations necessary for giving Ollet to the Law were not passed until March 1870. Inspectors duly Quality de Inal us Scro appointed at Halifax Montreal Tor onto and Quebec. Certain of Cors of Tho Inland Revenue department received Spe Cial instructions to obtain and submit Sam Ples of various articles to the analysts. Tho Blue Book before us contains a tabular slate men t showing that of Tho whole number of samples reported on up to Tho list Decem Ber 1870, somewhat More than lil to on and to half per cent were adulterated and the commissioner of Inland Revenue comment ing upon this exposition of Trade malpractices in Canada remarks that 1 itis obvious if Tho a ratio continues to preventive measures More effective than have yet been attempted will become no Dossary in Tho Public it seems that Tho most important adulteration and the Ono most difficult to Deal with is that of milk. Of this article so indispensable to families fifty eight analyses Are re ported and in thirty four cases the samples were found to have been adulterated. It was doubtful in Many cases whether such adulteration was produced by adding or by abstracting Cream and a slight Altera Tion in Tho Law is suggested with a View to meet technical obstacles to successful prosecution. The details furnished also show that Tho adulteration of condiments and spices such As Mustard Etc., prevails to a Largo and most Flag Titus extent.

Of Tho Twenty samples of Tea investigated adulteration was Only detected in four but these Adun rations Aro specially worthy of notice As pointing to Tho probability of Tho Canadian Supply of Tea from England being affected in Quality by Tho exportation from Tho Mother country of adulterated teas which under the stringent English Law of j87o, Aro excluded from the Home Market.

We have not space for Tho Manv interesting details of the analysts individual reports which clearly show that by the prevailing dishonesty of Trado practices con Sumers ate habitually purchasing an thing but the article they pay Lor. Around Collee is largely adulterated with a cheaper but fortunately innocuous admixture of Chicory and roasted peas and Beans. Tho powdered Pepper sold in Storc a in nearly every Case contains fifty per cent of wheaten hour. Powdered Ginger contains from a half to a Quarter its weight of the stall of Mustard according to nearly Campb is two thirds of wheaten hour Tho remain Der being a mixture of turmeric and mus Tard.

Or. Besancon entreated his hearers not to pass such distress coldly by and had the Cour age to propose that Germany should restore Alsace Lorraine Whoso National sentiment As the elections showed remained unchangeable and thus carry out a great act of National reconciliation. Then would All Tho burdensome War preparations cease and nations cease to distrust one another.
