I GIVEN SSIFICATION the importance of definitely deterthe national forests, and points oui mining the status of the land whici the forests contain. "The national forests," says Mr Graves, "are gaining in stability through the land classification work It is important for the general public to know what lands are to be re tained permanently by the government, and what lands will be available for agricultural settlement. The whole forest enterprise is based or the assumption of permanence. A1 the work is conducted with a view tc constructive development of the prop erty and its constantly ihcreasini usefulness. "Every timber sate is made wit! a view to future consequences. The work of-protection from fire is nol only to prevent the destruction o! standing timber, but to save younj growth and encourage the natural reproductidn on lands which have beer injured by previous abuse. Millions of trees are established each yeai which will not come to maturity foi a very long time. A regulated system of grazing looks to the upbuild ing of the forest range, as well as t< its present use;' and the investmen of public funds in extensive improve ments is predicated on the perman nence of the government enterprise.' The need ' for consolidating lane ownership where government ,an( private lands are interlocked ii pointed out by Mr. Graves.

A method' for guaranteeing foods and drugs which will be less , misleading to the public has been , provided by the officials In charge of | the enforcement or the food and , drugs act. Under the new plan manufacturers may guarantee their products on the invoice or bill of sale, or | by certain other methods, but accord-!, ing to a. food Inspection decision 1, which became effective on November; 11, 1916, they inay not make any state-1 ] I inent regarding a guaranty or serial ( I number on the labels of packages of , foods or drugs which enter Interstate | < or foreign commerce. However, la-j beds containing the guaranty legend I and serial number which were print- j . ed prior to May 5. 1914, the date on ] ! which the first notice to discontinue] the guaranty legend and serial numj ber was Issued, may be used until ] , ; May 1, 1918, In order to prevent thei , loss that otherwise would occur from -', the destruction of such labels. 1, The New Way to (iiinrajiteci. >i The manufacturer, wholesaler, or; ;! other person residing in the United States and shipping foods ov drugs]; into interstate commerce according! to the amended regulation, may print j or stamp his guaranty on the invoice. ] bill or sale, or on any commercial: paper that contains a list of the items] of foods or drugs which he intends to' i guarantee. The department of agri-; culture does not prescribe the exact form that the guaranty shall take, but is of the opinion that the following wording will be satisfactory: "I (We), the undersigned, do here^ by guarantee that the articles of food (and drugs) listed herein, are not i adulterated or mlsbranded within the meaning of the Federal Food and Drugs Act, June 30, 1906, as amended." This statement shonld be followed by the signature, which may be printed or stamped if the invoice or other document Is transmitted by the guarantor direct to the "healer, and the address of the guarantor. Why Change Was Made. Originally it was provided in the1 rules and regulations that the manufacturer or wholesaler who desired to guarantee that his products complied with the food and drugs act might file a general guaranty with the department of'agriculture to the STRIKING PIC OF STREET SALON . * regions and will aid community up' building, I "The importance of having public , forests at the head waters of Important streams has been recognized and I greatly emphasized through the ap1 propriation of $3,000,000 for continued purchases of lands begun under the so-called "Weeks law. The work ' of establishing these forests has been f. started under the most, favorable au, spices, and its discontinuance w6uld ' have been peculiarly unfortunate.

Upon the rerclnt nf a nrnn?rlv ATn(>llt(>(l ?lftr*n(T die department assigned a serial number to tho manufacturer or wholesaler who filed the guaranty. The manufacturer or wholesaler was authorised to use this number on his labels to indicate that tho guaranty which ho lad filed with the department covered the products on which the number was used. After this method had boon in operation for some time it was found that the guaranty legend on the label was misleading to the public. It was incorrectly assumed ( by consxuners generally and some retail dealers that the guaranty legend on the label meant that a sample of Lhc product had been examined by tho United States department of agricul-i turo and that in effect the United) States department of agriculture actually guaranteed the product. Object of the Guaranty. The food and drugs act provides that no dealer shall ho prosecuted under the provisions of that act when ho can establish a guaranty signed by Llic wholesaler, jobber, manufacturer, or other party residing in the United Sttaes. from whom ho purchasos articles of fpod and drugs. Tho guaranty should bo to the effect that the rood^ and drugs to which It, applies are not adulterated or misbranded Within the meaning of the act. Tho object of this provision la to malce the manufacturer or wholesaler or person who knows the composition of the food and drug products responsible for their compliance with the provisions of the law. In many cases a dealer does not know the composition of the products lie sells, and can not afford the expense of having an analysis made in order to determine it Tor himself. A provision, therefore, was inserted ill the law to the effect that, if the dealer secured a guaranty from the manufacturer or wholesaler or other person from whom he purchases. the party making the guaranty would be responsible under the law, and the dealer would ho relieved of responsibility. The dealer should see that all his foods and drugs which have entered Interstate commerce, or which lie expects to ship in interstate or foreign commerce or to sell in the District of Columbia or the territories, are guaranteed to him in the manner outlined. The guaranty was never intended to be, and never has been, in any sense guaranty by the department of agriculture.
