FULL WEIGHTS AND HONEST MEASURES State Superintendent Johnson Is Endeavoring to Educate the People "Honesty in trade should be a principle and not a policy," is the slogan that will be generally adopted during "Honest Weights and Measures Weeek," which, by the way, is this week, and is of much interest throughout the State. Thousands of merchants have signified their participation in a demonstrative manner to manifest the principle that legitimate trade and fair competition can only be established and maintained by the rigid enforcement of honest weights and honest measures. An appeal was made to the clergy throughout the State to make "Honest Weights and Honest Measures" the subject of their sermon on Sunday, October 22. During this week all educational institutions throughout the State are making the subject a special feature. Business in general has, during the past two years, been as the result of the enforcement of the Weights and Measures laws, been emancipated from hundreds of erroneous trade customs which greatly facilitated the perpetration of commercial fraud. Hundreds of investigations have been made disclosing customs and ways for deception that would make the proverbial dark ways of the Chinese look crude and primitive. Commercial misconduct in avenues of trade consist chiefly of petty and pecuniary acts too often excused as ignorance and carelessness, and palliated due to social and commercial prominence of the perpetrators. It is not considered a reflection on commercial integrity to offer and sell plain ordinary celluloid as "Parisian ivory," nor is it thought derogatory to commercial dignity to elaborate on the numerous as these produces are, and as extensive as is their use at the present time, science is constantly learning new constituents which enter into the makeup of wood and is finding new uses to which these constituents and those already known can be put. Powder for munitions or blasting, disinfectants for protection against contagious diseases, and artificial silk for clothing are among the products obtained in whole or in part from wood. Charcoal, as everyone knows, is essential for the manufacture of black powder. All of the acetone used as a solved in making nitro-cellulose powders is derived from acetic acid, a product of hardwood distillation. Great Britain, it is said, is dependent upon the United States for acetone used in making cordite. Black walnut is a standard for gun stocks, and has been so much in demand for the past two years that our supply of this valuable wood has been considerably reduced and other woods, notable birch, are being substituted. From Europe come the complaint that there is a shortage of willow for making wooden legs. Pure wood alcohol is the only substance which can be converted commercially into formaldehyde, which is universally used for disinfection against such contagious diseases as smallpox, scarlet fever, and tuberculosis. The experts at the forest products laboratory have conducted extensive experiments on the production of grain or ethyl alcohol from wood and have been successful in experimental work in raising the yield and lowering the cost of production. If this process can be put on a commercial basis, the foresters say, it will result in putting the millions of tons of coniferous sawdust and other material which is now wasted every year to a profitable use. By converting cellulose, one of the elements of wood, into a gelatinous material, known as viscose, a wide age casings to tapestry, and the already lengthy list so-called "silk" socks, fancy braids now on the tain artificial silk made. About nine-tenths of which we use is made from sides the detailed investigation methods of making new and of the production of woods hitherto unused pose, which have been kraft paper, which commonly with teh best on them been produced experimentally forest products laboratories leaf pine mill waste. This is brow nin color and is stronger than ordinary used for a variety of cut into strips, is spun out thread which is then woven and coffee bags, matting and wall covering, similar and furniture closely resembled made from reeds, as web titles of common use. Within the past year the ducts laboratory has, by with manufacturers, succeeding a dye made from osage orange put on the substitute for fusic, whi from Jamalca and Tehuana. These are only a few the various lines of work the forest products labormen in charge. Other ranging all the way from decay in wood to that of wood to fire, are in new discoveries are composed. Incidentally, the ducts laboratory, at Maasin, was the first of its world and is probably equipped. With the production of Germany, no other done so much as the systematically to invest sibilities of its forest m Commercial misconduct in avenues of trade consist chiefly of petty and pecuniary acts too often excused as ignorance and carelessness, and palliated due to social and commercial prominence of the perpetrators. It is not considered a reflection on commercial integrity to offer and sell plain ordinary celluloid as "Parisian ivory," nor is it thought derogatory to commercial dignity to elaborate on the value and excellent merits of "Hudson Seal," which is more commonly known as "Rabbit Skin." It is common custom to sell dried sponges by the pound after loading them with 40 per cent of ordinary clay. Honesty and good intentions attend the inception of nearly all commercial undertakings. The desire to accumulate, however, sometimes blinds the eye to the high standards of principle, diversion from which suggests what are termed "expediency methods," or "short cuts" to commercial success, which undermines a substantial system of exchange built on honesty and plain dealing. The extensive and tactful educational campaign which has been the policy attentring the enforcement of the Weights and Measures laws in the State of California has made this enforcement a success principally by its effective stimulation of legitimate trade, and making it possible for honest merchants to continue in business without being forced by dishonest competition to adopt their methods or retire. A merchant may adopt trade expediencles as an easy road to success, and those who were his stepping stones to this success may still be uncomplaining victims, but the verdict to prosperity, even from such as these, will be "Honesty is the way, my boy, I have tried both." It is this principle, and it is this moral, that Honest Weights and Measure week calculates to inaugurate. Make honesty in trade a principle. Don't make it a policy. Let the golden rule in trade be "Weigh and measure unto others as you would have others weigh and measure unto you." EGGPLANT BEETLE The nature and habits of the eggplant tortoise beetle, a newly studied insect which attacks eggplant and related species of plants throughout the South, and methods for the control of the pest, are described by Thomas H. EGGPLANT BEETLE The nature and habits of the eggplant tortoise beetle, a newly studied insect which attacks eggplant and related species of plants throughout the South, and methods for the control of the pest, are described by Thomas H. Jones in a professional paper of the department, Bulletin 422, recently issued. Although the beetle is an important enemy, it is at times at least destructive enough to warrant the use of insecticides for its control. The adult or beetle is small and dull green or greenish yellow in color. In its development it passes through five larval and one pupal stage. Both the beetles and their larvae attack leaves, eating small, somewhat circular holes. In addition to eggplant, the insect attacks potato and various wild Solanums. At Baton Rouge, La., where studies of the insect were made, several generations, perhaps as many as five, may be produced in a single season. Experiments of the department's specialist who made studies of the bettle demonstrate that it may be controlled by an arsenical sprayed or dusted on the plants, such as arsenate of lead or arsenite of zinc. LITTLE KNOWN FOREST PRODUCTS WIDELY USED In addition to the ordinary uses of wood with which we are familiar, mankind is dependent upon the forests for a variety of products whose appearance does not indicate their origin, say members of the forest service. Can you see any REAL difference? Nos. 1 and 2 are Both Principles The principal difference is that No. 1 goes into effect two years earlier than No. 2 to the vineyards, the breweries and exhibition is seeking to destroy. Vote NO Against Amendments No. 1 and 2 for Both are Prohibition Measures. age casings to tapestry, is added to the already lengthy list. Many of the so-called "silk" socks, necties and fancy braids now on the market contain artificial silk made from wood. About nine-tenths of all the paper which we use is made from wood. Besides the detailed investigations of the methods of making newsprint paper, and of the production of paper from woods hitherto unused for that purpose, which have been conducted, kraft paper, which compares favorably with teh best on the market, has been produced experimentally at the forest products laboratory from long leaf pine mill waste. This graft paper is brow nin color and is very much stronger than ordinary papers. It is used for a variety of purposes, and cut into strips, is spun or twisted into thread which is then woven into onion and coffee bags, matting, suitcases, and wall covering, similar to burlap, and furniture closely resembling that made from reeds, as well as other articles of common use. Within the past year the forest products laboratory has, by cooperating with manufacturers, succeeded in getting a dye made from mill waste of osage orange put on the market as a substitute for fustic, which we import from Jamaica and Tehuantepec. These are only a few examples of the various lines of work carried on at the forest products laboratory, say the men in charge. Other activities, ranging all the way from the study of decay in wood to that of the resistance of wood to fire, are in progress, and new discoveries are constantly being made. Incidentally, the forest products laboratory, at Madison, Wisconsin, was the first of its kind in the world and is probably still the best equipped. With the possible exception of Germany, no other country has done so much as the United States systematically to investigate the possibilities of its forest resources.

Knowing that the voters of the State would not deliberately confiscate the great vineyards, the brewery industries which prohibition would destroy, they implish the same result through a subterfuge. So they the ballot Proposition No. 2, which has been widely admonished by the Saloon Measure. If you have been told that a measure which affects only the saloons, read theoses: It would go even further and prevent any hotel or restaurant chef from using wine, brandy or beer in preparing gravies, rarebits or other special dishes. This so-called Anti-Saloon measure would even prevent any bakery from using brandy in mince pies or plum puddings, and would make this practically impossible even if the dishes were prepared at home. It would prevent the sale of wine or beer by the gallen, bottle (or in any quantity), by grocery or other stores. Would make it impossible for anyone to serve a wine at a wine cellar and club in the state. Hotel proprietor sub- guests carried the hotel room, sible for visitors or wine anywhere.

BACKS, Deputy Clerk. 9-21-11t This so-called Anti-Saloon measure would even prevent any bakery from using brandy in mince pies or plum puddings, and would make this practically impossible even if the dishes were prepared at home. It would prevent the sale of wine or beer by the gallen, bottle (or in any quantity), by grocery or other stores. Would make it impossible for anyone enjoying a vacation at a summer resort to secure a glass of wine or beer at meals. Would eliminate every branch or agency of a winery or brewery in California. Would prohibit the soliciting of orders away from the place of manufacture and would eliminate traveling salesmen. Would discourage the manufacture of the finest grades of wine, because they are aged in bottle and sold principally in the hotels, restaurants and clubs of California. Why REAL difference between the two measures? Two are Both Prohibition Amendments. Difference is that No. 1 goes into effect at the end of 1919, the effect two years earlier. They would be equally disas-ords, the breweries and all the other industries which pro- destroy.
