Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Food Preparedness, Vol. 5
Until recent years little or no attention has been paid by most people to matters of food and diet; the first serious agita tion in this country does not date beyond the memory of those who read this. I refer to the time when the question of a Pure Food Law began to be seriously considered by the people and their representatives in Congress. After several years of fight ing against the unscrupulous and greedy food interests, our pres ent Food and Drugs Act became a law, in June. 1906.
