POWELL A SNIDER'S COLUMN v' ft? tu THE ' : Wonders of Science As applied to modern iobd products - are somewhat startling though., we need not fear the final result if we will unite in trying to stop the wholesale adulter tion that is being practiced in the manu facture of cheap goods. Allow us to offer a tew suggestions in regard to purchasing food products and the tests for adulteration in same. V We can only mention a few in this - short Bpace and will begin with ; As very few of oar friends buy ground coffee it is hardly necessary to give the adulterations practiced by cheap dealers by using ehicory, beans, peas, carrots etc, all of which may be detected by stirring in clear water, the greasy nature of the coffee causing it to float on top while' the adulterating materials will eink and rapidly discolor the water Always buy whole grain coffee choos ing large light uniform grains for a mild drink and dark green for strong. Avoid I night colored coffees. WE DO NOT SELL GROUND COF FEES AND OUR STOCK OF WHOLE MEAN COFFEES IS ABSOLUTELY 1'URE AND OF THE BEST GRADES TO BE HAD. TEA. . This is extensively adulterated both in China and this country by the means of exhausted tea leaves and leaves 01 other trues. Mineral matters are also used for coloring or facing teas; Clay sand etc are extensively used. The tests for these are by infusion; this is poured off the leaves and examined for color, taste and odor, all of which are easily detected. Our teas are bought from the best tea im porters in this coun try and we can furnish testimonials from the best judges in this section as to their purity.'- FLOUR. Flour is now being adulterated with plaster, potato starch etc, all of which can be detected by the use of the miscro- scope. Old fashioned as it may be we till prefer flour made from wheat. WE SELL FLOUR IN ORIGINAL PACKAGES AS PUT UP AT THE MILLS AND HAVE THE GUAR ANTEE THAT THEY ARE MADE FROM WHEAT. GROUND SPICES Should be closely examined with the miscroscope. -. PEPPER GINGER, CLOVES, CINNAMON .etc are largely adulterated with gypsum, buckwheat husks, starch, sago meal, ground rice and-brick ,hist all of which can be .easily detected by the use of the miscroscope.

The Shelby Aurora with its good looks and graceful carriage has add ed to itself theuelenoent of strength.

The wind storm from the Northwest which succeeded the rain of Friday had a singular effect upon the forest foliage The young leaves, - not yet grown, and very tender, were lashed and whipped and cut by the wind as if they had been riddled by hail; and the ground is cover ed far and wide with fragments of all sizes. But no material harm was done. Mr. Levi Plemmons of Leicester town ship informs us that the farmers of his section are getting on well with their farm operations and are ahead with their work. They are determined this vear to look more closely to home and .to secure, as tne nrst tnmg, a lull supply of food and forage products, and then to make some good tobacco; last, but not least, because it is a very good thing to raise and to have when other things are pro vided lor. Mr. Plemmons himself, for instance. averaged cents round lor Ms tobacco crop, lie made his own fertilizers, com post of salts or ashes, stable manure and salt, which were mixed two months be fore using. Lbt Us Meet 'Em, Let us Fetch 'Em. We take the following from the Knox vine vnronicie. it is .not intended as a challenge to us, but we should take it as such. We must meet Knoxville' with extended hands. We must bring her del egations up to Asheville and give them Asheville welcome. We must welcome not only Knoxville, but Chattanooga M-orrisiown, an ast Tennessee, xne late fine demonstration in Knoxville proves that there is strong community of interest between ourselves and them. Let us pull down all State barriers, and prove ourselves one people as before when North Carolina and Tennessee were one in territory as in people. The Chronicle says : The Chronicle, not to be outdone by its most enterpris ing competitors, has chartered and will run a special lightning expreostrain. The train has been chartered to run to Warm Springs and Asheville at the opening of the new Warm springs hotel, which will take place about the 1st of June. The train will leave Knoxville about 5 a. m and will make bat one stop be tween this city and Warm Springs except for wate In the meantime the Chronicle will compile matter for a magnificent 24-page edition to be devoted to the interest of Western North Carolina, and especially to the health resorts of that favored re gion. Besides this the edition of that day will be a marvel of news-gathering enterprise. Bundles of paper, will, be thrown' from the train at all stations and newsboys will be on hand to take charge of the sales. The paper will be hand somely illustrated and jn,' every respect superior to any paper ever issued from Knoxville, if not in the south.

J. S. Tomlinson. The Question Before Us. - ' In connection with our article of yes terday, we come very naturslly to the cost of the work. The estimates of that have been made, and the costs ascer tained as nearly. as possible. For the water supply and for the street improve ment of the sum of $100,000 in proposed to be raised from the sale of bonds of the city of Asheville, and the authority to issue such bonds is the question to be decided. There is a very natural fear that in so large an increase of the debt of the city there will be an increase of taxes to meet the annual or semi-annuai accruing in terest. 1 he foundation of this fear rests upon the erroneous assumption that the burden falls upon present shoulders; that population is to remain where it is, and that there will be no enhancement in the values of property, now so sitaa ted aa to De outside of the reach of the improvements that have advanced other parts of the city so rapidly. But tne very eitect of additional improve ment; the results of such seccnty to property, such advantage to health, sucii increase! - iaciuties to commu nication, are the very things; that will give tnis addition to population, this m crease to the value of property. These of themselves relieve the fear of increas ed taxation, for the burden becomes more generally diffused and falls more lightly on the shoulders of the individu al. . : - A source of revenue, which, on itself will lighten, if it does not remove, our Drancn 01 taxation, nas not been given serious consideration. This is the revt" nue from the use of water. Even now with comparativfely limited use," the rev enue amounted last vear to nearly one thousand dollars. Now it is almost cer tain that under an enlarged and general use of the water, the revenues will be enough from that source to pay the in terest on the sum to be allotted to the enlargement of the water supply. .but even u this should be an overes timate of revenue.tax-pavers are protect ed by the provisions of the charter of the city of Asheville, as amended by 'Act of Assembly, Session of 1883. Sub-section 1 of Section 35 says. ua ail real ana personal property witlin the corporate limits of the city of Asheville, including money on hand and all subjects taxable by the General As sembly of North Carolina as set forth ana valued on the tax list of Buncombe county, a tax ad valorem not exceeding one dollar on every hundred dollars in valuation. ' So that if the necessity came upon the city for increase of taxes, the law stands squarely in the " face of a levy of more tnan nve or eigtit cents we lorget which, or the present rate- But as we have said, we believe taxation will not exceed the present rate. We -.believe taxation will, not only not be increas ed, but that it will be diminished from the causes of inevitable increase of popu lation and emhancement of values, the direct results of the value of the proposed works, tne revenue derived from water rents' and the relatively permanent na ture of the street improvements which reduce the existing continuous drain for temporary repairs.
