tered around the occupation of the Yankee
whalers .wherever theli exploits have been

learned heir trade from the Indiana, whom
tney afterward employed extensively to as
sist them; that whaling- as an Industry sup
ported' practically every Inhabitant of the
island of Nantucket tor years. There are
thrilling tales In plenty of dangerous chases,
of savage whales which have wrecked
boats and even sunk ships, and of whole
fleets caught In the ice of northern sas
and held for months. Mr. Spears extols
the old-time whalemen among the hardi
est and most Independent of Americans, and
bis admlrat.on for them la abundantly Justi
fied by the stories he tells. Published by

SUBLETIES OF ADULTERATION

Feed.
Sine Solomon and hi forebear declared
diver weights and divers measure an
abomination, th fraud has grown, and
especially the sophistication of weights and
measures by the crafty use of adulterants,
was uncontrolled until about the year 1875.
In Science of November ( Mr. A. L. Wlnton,
government chemist at Chicago, essays to
point out the reasons for this lack of con
trol. In the first place, 'the complexities of de
mand and of Invention In producing com
mercial articles that can be successfully
Imitated have increased, and are still In
creasing. Food, drugs, paints, oils, chemi
cals and fabrics have thus become debased.
The primitive manufacture at home of but
ter, lard and cheese, starch, yarn and cloths
has been supplanted by mills and factories;
this reduced the cost and spared the house
wife, but deprived her of a first-hand
knowledge of the genuineness of such prod
ucts. Then, too, adulterants have multiplied,
many of them being ot the highest scientific
research. Solomon would today be fairly
affrighted at the long list of abominations
In oils, acids, dyes, preservatlvea, and kinds
of habit-forming drugs employed In modern
refinements of cheating in goods.
Before It was curbed, and because of its
subtleties of invasion, the evil of adulter
ants acquired monstrous proportions. The
Connecticut experiment station was estab
lished in 1875 for official Inspection and
analytical control of foodstuffs. Bine then
th cities ot the nation and all the civil
ised nations hav built up an Imperfect
enginery of defense against the fraud of
adulteration. The old scriptural rage is at
lasr Intelligently directed ugalnst the Bin in
