SO AMABIR ™, Snein. Vd Cider Vinegar Sale Made Easy Under Penna. Law. Country cider vinegar, made by the farmers of Pennsylvania, may be sold to the wholesale and retail trade in this state without inspection or permit of any kind, Provided the ‘vinegar has been made from apple juice and con- tains no added water, drugs or acids, it complies in every way with the pure food laws of the state, Director James Foust of the Bureau of Foods, Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, this week declared that agents from the larger vinegar distilling plants, many of them located outside the state, have been making strenuous ef- forts to keep the farmers from making and disposing of their own cider vine- gar, * These agents have been going up and down the state telling the trade, particu- larly the small retail dealer, that he runs a risk of violating the food laws of the state by selling cider vinegar made on the farm, A recent act of the legislature provides for the interest of the farmers in this particular case. The act provides that that there shall be po standards as to solids and acidity for cider vinegar made from apple juice. The act requires, however, that the cask or container of such vinegar shall be marked with the name and address of the person making the vinegar. This may be done on any farm, with a set of stencils or a card containing the information may be at- tached to the barrel. Penpsylvania imports great amounts of cider vinegar from New York and Virginia each year. The farmers of Pennsylvania have an excellent oppor- tunity to convert their apples intoecider vinegar, realize a good profit and run no risk of running afoul of the prohibition laws. If every excess apple in the state was made into vinegar, the amount would still be insufficient to meet mand and at the current price of 30 to 35 cents a gallon, cider vinegar returns an excellent investment to the farmer ————————— Eye Specialist at Lewisburg.
