STATE'S VINEGAR IS
UNDERGOING ANALYSIS
Two Hundred and Thirty-five
Brandt Gathered From Many
Points in Chemists' Hands
Two hundred and thirty-five brands
of vinegar, gathered in seventy-four
cities and boroughs in fifty-five coun
ties, have been turned over to State
chemists in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh,
Krie. West Chester and other places
for analyses to see If they are being
adulterated. This is the first time an
Investigation has been made Into the
vinegar sold in the State, and W. F.
I Hill, who had charge of It, has re-
I ported that 30 per cent, of the sam
-1 pies were adulterated or watered or
not according to label. In fact, he has
•reported that there is a disposition to
sell any of the various sorts of vinegar
when cider vinegar Is asked for.
Sixty-nine of the brands were found
to be on sale in Philadelphia, six of
tliem Imported vinegars. Red, brown,
pineapple and syrup vinegar, a variety
I made from molasses, were found on
| sale in Philadelphia, together with
! white wine and some combinations
1 which were styled elder vinegar.
Under the law vinegar must be pure
apple juice and the dealer must not
water it. If it is too tart, the law
requires that th« housewife be allowed
to water it.
The vinegar investigation is the fifth
of considerable Importance to be un
dertaken by the Dairy and Food Di
vision this summer, thousands of milk
and cream samples having been taken
In the late Spring, then ice cream sam

New Antiseptic May
Save Many From Death
Paris. Aug. 6. Dr. Alexis Carrel, j
of the Rockefeller Institute of Medi-I
cal Research, of New York, and Dr. I
Henry D. Dakin of the Lister Institue,
have discovered, after exhaustive ex
periments at the Complegne Military
Hospital, what they believe Is the ideal I
antiseptic, which, if applied in time, I
will make infection in wounds im
possible.
The most powerful antiseptic known !
to science is hypochlorite of lime, but i
its use is Injurious to the tissues,
owing to its acidity, and it does not
keep. Doctors Dakin and Carrel have
found that these two defects are
remedied, respectively, t>y the addition
of carbonate of lime and boric acid.
Wonderful results have been ob
tained with the new antiseptic.
Professor Landouzy explained the
discovery to the Academy of Science,
whose members agreed that it will be
of great importance in surgery.
Japs Making Supplies
For Russian Forces
Tokio. Aug. 6.—Now that the dan
ger of war with China is over, Japan
and Korea nre engaged in making
supplies for Russia and her allies. The
war brought big financial losses to
Japan, but the gaps are being filled In
part by the furnishing of guns, am
[munition and general necessities to the
armies at the front —particularly the
armies of Russia.
Officially, Japan has given increased
practical expression to her friendship
toward Russia by going to the limit
of dismantling some of her fortifica
tions on the northeastern coast of the
empire. Big coast guns stripped from
these fortifications have been shipped
to Vladivostock and thence been for
warded to Russia to strengthen the ar
tillery of the armies of the Czar.

Ivangorod Occupied by
Austro-German Forces
By Associated Press
Vienna, Aug. 6, via London. —The j (
occupation of Ivangorod yesterday by i
Austro-German forces le announced in 1
an official telegram from the front.
The evacuation of Ivangorod appar
ently was admitted last night by Pet- I
rograd in an offlcial statement which I
said "in the Ivangorod district the|
Russians have crossed to the right j
bank of the Vistula blowing up thei
bridges behind them."
A statement issued later in thei
night explained that the Ivangorod!
forts were not properly constructed j
for modern warfare. . This statement j
was made "in reply to the Austrian 1
claim that a great victory was achiev
ed in Ivangorod capture." It further
states that all the provisions in the
city were "methqdically" removed,
after which the Russian rear guard
blew up the concrete basis supporting
the brick casements of the forts, de
stroyed the bridges and crossed the
river.
Ivangorod is located at the con
fluence of the Vistula and the Vieprz
rivers. It is situated on the railroad
running to Lukow and Brest-Lltovsk
and also on a line connecting with
Warsaw.
FROG AND SWITCH
DEPARTMENT PICNIC
The frog and switch department of
the Pennsylvania Steel Company will
hold their annual excursion to Willow
Grove Park August 21, 1915.

record-breaking crowd. The manage
ment of the park, as well as the offi
cials of the Reading Railway, will do
all in their power to entertain the
people on this particular day. The
railroad company will endeavor to
make a record run to and from the
park in order that the visitors may
have practically one whole day to
enjoy the beauties of the park and
give many an opportunity to do
shopping In Philadelphia and give the
baseball fans a chance to see the base
ball game between the Phillies and the
Chicago Cubs.
The concert by the famous Sousa
band will be one of the treats accorded
all who take advantage of this rare
opportunity. A round-trip ticket will
only be $2 for adults: $1 for children

Austrian Note Ready to
Be Forwarded to Vienna
Washington, Aug. 6.—The Ameri
can reply to Austro-Hunßary's recent
diplomatic note suggesting an embargo
on war exports to the allies, on the
ground that the traffic has grown to
proportions which violate American
neutrality, virtually has been finished
by the State Department and will be
I dispatched to Vienna within a few
| days.
j The note reiterates the position of
jthe United States, as it was expressed
ion a previous occasion to Count von
j Bernstorff, the German Ambassador,,
that "the placing of an embargo on
the trade in arms at this time would
be a direct violation of the neutrality of
the United States." '
Austria's contention that "a neutral
government is not permitted to allow
unhindered trade in contraband of war,
if this trade assumes such a character
or proportions that the neutrality of
the country is thereby Impaired," is
declared in the American reply to be
impractical. The United States con
tents that a limit beyond which the
amount of war exports to a belligerent
endangers the neutrality of a nonbel
ligerent, cannot be arbitrarily set.

to improve roads just over the borough

liability for improvements on a road

petition for the improvement is under
way and this obstruction mav be over

Trouble at Paxtang,
Out in Paxtang the condition of the
pike, which is a borough street and
also a part of the State main highway
system, was literally su bad that the
State, on the assumption tnat a por
tion of it having been built by State |
aid in township jurisdictton days, went j
into the east end of the norough and j
began to repair the road so that it'
would not go to pieces. In the west
end disintegration is proceeding very
rapidly and the borough rathers are
trying to figure out a way to accept a
State-aid proposition witnout getting
Into a financial hole deeper than some
of the ruts In the pike.
The city's paved Derry street abuts
the pike In Paxtang on the west just
as the improved State highway abuts'
it on the east. But, in between—well,
Its just a typical borough highway.
Camp Hill, after pettifogging and I
fussing for many months, voted a loan
for improving the borough street!

highway. The State happens to bej
pretty busy just now and the improve-'

Brick Forts Do Not
Meet Requirements
of Modern Warfare
By Associated Press
Petrograd, Aug. 5, via London, Aug.
6.—The forts at Ivangorod, construct
ed almost entirely of brick, do not an
swer the requirements of modern war
fare, according to an official statement
issued by the Russian general staff in
reply to the Austrian claim that a
great victory was achieved in Ivango
rod's capture.
"Last October," the Russian state
ment says, "enemy attacks were not
repulsed on the line of the fortified
circle but on positions constructed to
meet the advance. Because of the im
possibility of Ivangorod sustaining a
siege, all its provisions were methodi
cally removed to-day.
"On some of our lines west of Ivan
gorod our rear guards detained the
enemy for some days, without heavy
lighting, but on Wednesday, confirm
ably to our general plan of action,
these rear guards blew up the concrete
bases supporting the brick casements
of the forts, destroyed the bridges and
withdrew to the right bank of the
Vistula."
