Here it comes! The announcement is made that railroads are to make a general raise in freight rates. This is the sequel to the raise in employes' wages the railroads proclaimed so loudly not long since.

The farmers of Indiana, so far as known, who own sugar camps are receiving from the state board of health a letter as follows: “It is against the Indiana law to label maple syrup unless it is pure. If it contains any artificial coloring matter, such as burned sugar, or if it contains any brown sugar, or white sugar, or molasses or glucose, then it is not maple syrup and must not be labelled as such. The word pure’ must not be traduced; it must be kept aloof from all bad associations. If cane sugar is put in maple syrup or if glucose is added the fact must be plainly stated upon the label and the word ‘pure’ and ‘maple’ must be avoided.'’
