CARGO MAY BE UNLOADED Transport Likely to Take Forage to Manila Andalusia, Next Due Here, Probably Will Be De tained at Tslngtan. Until further orders the Hamburg American liner Saxonia, which left here a week ago with 5000 tons of cargo for the Orient and Europe, will remain on Puget Sound, where she went to com plete loading. Information to that ef fect was received yesterday by Fritz Kirchholt, Portland agent for the line, who eays the instructions to hold the vessel emanated from the New York office of the company and were trans mitted through the Puget Sound agency. The vessel had started to load 1000 tons of forage for the United States, to be delivered at Manilla. Two hun dred tons was received on board Sat urday. It Is expected to be dis charged and the entire shipment taken on the Government transport Dix. Aadalasla Hay Be Detained. The liner Andalusia is due here Sep tember 12. and is the next carrier ex pected.

The Japanese steamer Kenkon Maru arrived yesterday from Keratsu, and she being in ballast her cargo will go aboard at once. "As we are shipping American lum ber in Japanese steamers for a Chinese port I fail to see how the China Import & Export Lumber Company comes with in the scope of the war zone," said Mr. Klrchhoff. "At present I know of no reason why the business will not con tinue." KOSMOS FLEET SUSPENDS Agent Notifies Shippers Line Drops Out, Due to War. Portland shippers were informed yesterday by Harold H.

FERN LEY TO LOAD CEREAL River Forth Comes as Vanguard of Carpcntier Fleet. Ship liners are preparing the holds of the British tramp Fernley for grain at Montgomery dock No. 2 and she will work a full cargo for England, so far as "is known now. Kerr, Glfford & Co. have her under charter and have not altered their plans for dispatching the ship, as England is not at war.

NATION-WIDE ENDORSEMENT From 48 State and Municipal Health Authorities jr' V VZ-VUX U U U 13 Reasons for "WAXTITE" from Men Who Know CALIFORNIA Dr. Im M. Powers, Health Commis sioner, Los Angeles, says: "Sealed packages and wax paper wrap pings are economical and con venient, and protect against dust and dirt and are a protection from disease." Dr. Sarshel D. Cooper, D. O., San Francisco, says: "Having exam ined and eaten Kellogg's Toasted Corn Flakes put up in the 'Wax tlte' packages I am free to admit that they are tar superior to any other similar product that I have ever tried. Being put up in air tight packages is bound to keep them crisp and fresh indefinitely and, I believe, will tend to pre serve their nutritive qualities. In the future I will with pleasure recommend to rav patients the use of Kellogg's Toasted Corn Flakes on account of the 'Waxtite' pack age which makes them absolutely sanitary." COLORADO John Lynch, State Food and Drug Commissioner, says: "This depart ment regards the practice of en casing food products in air-tight packages as a decided step for ward In food sanitation. 'Wax tite' Is a simple and efficacious device for preventing the de terioration or contamination of foods and is to be highly com mended." Dr. J. M. Perklnn, Health Commis sioner, City and County of Denver, says: "The new container being known as 'Waxtite' p a c k a g e. seems to possess all that can be desired in the way of a sanitary container for such food." GEORGIA J. D. Price, Commissioner State De partment Agriculture, says: "The use of wax paper in wrapping food packages aTter being sealed is an. excellent idea as it aids in keeping out contamination and keeping the original strength and flavor of food so wrapped." ILLINOIS Dr. John A. Roblnon, Pres. Illinois State Board of Health, says: "The Waxtite package meets with my most sincere approval It Is a step in the right direction. If all foodstuffs could be enclosed in a like protected package, it would be of great benefit to the public." INDIANA Dr. J. If. Hurtr. State Public Health Commissioner, says: "The proper wrapping of food-stuffs to protect them against pollution is plainly very Important. The Waxtite pack age certainly secures all the re sults desired from secure wrap ping." Dr. H. L. Sayler. City Health Officer. Des Moines, says: "I commend the movement now under way to pro tect food-stuffs with covering that will prevent moisture, germs and impurities from entering packages producing not only de composed food but poison. There is a satisfaction in opening a package that is thoroughly pro tected and the p.lan of using wax covering for food-stuffs meets my approval." KANSAS Dr. J. A. Ramsey, City Health Offi cer, Topeka, says: "I have exam ined very carefully the 'Waxtite' wrapper for food packages and believe it to be of great value In preserving food products from contamination. It meets witii my ideas exactly as a sanitary wrap per for any or all food products, and I can most cheerfully recom mend it." K. L. Huxtable, City Food Inspect or, Wichita, says: "The idea of a sealed package for breakfast foods is beyond a doubt a necessity for the health of the public and is heartilv approved by me. The Waxtite package certainly should be popular with housewives." LOUISIANA Dr. Oacar Donllnc, State Health Commissioner, says: "After ex amination of many kinds of food products put up in cartons, paper packages, or tin boxes, it is evi dent that those having an addi tional sealed covering of oiled or paraffin paper are the best pro tected. In this climate the- addi tional covering is absolutely necessary." MASSACHUSETTS Dr. M. W. Richardson, Secretary State Board of Health, says: "The advantaRes of wax-sealed pack ages for the protection of pre pared food would be two -fold: first, evaporation of moisture, from foods originally moist would be prevented furthermore, dry foods would not take up mois ture: and, of course, germ life would be excluded from such packages.'' MICHIGAN J. W. Helme. Commissioner State Food Department, says: "In the sale of cereals three things are to be guarded against. First, con tagion by careless handling and from dust, dirt and flies. Second, deterioration of contents by the absorption of moisture. Third, in festation by cereal-eating insects which we find quite common even in many package food-stuffs. It is with pleasure that this depart ment views the advent of the Kellogg waxtite package which preverits all the above defects." MINNESOTA Joel G. Wlnkjer. COBUntaaiOnfr State Food Department, says: "In the production and distribution of food products the package plays an Im portant part. Your efforts In this line with the Waxtite Cover are commendable." Dr. C. BV Dutton, City Health Com missioner, Minneapolis, says: "There are many advantages hi tho protection given certain kinds of food-stuffs by wrapping and sealing the original package with paraffined paper such as the Kellogg Toasted Corn Flako Com pany's waxtite package." Dr. H. e. webater. Director of Pub lie Health, Duluth. says: "Deteri oration and dirt have always been two of the hardest things to over come in the marketing of prepared foods. It looks now as if the double problem has been solved by the making of Waxtite package, for it certainly is proof against dirt and moisture, and is calcu lated to keep the contents from losing any of their food value." MISSOURI 1 H. Krlcke, State Pure rood Com missioner. St. Louis, says: "One of the best methods of protecting cereals and other foods from dust, vermin and Insanitary handling, is careful packing. I think the Wax tite covering of cartons, in which food is packed, is the ideal method of solving the problem." Dr. Walter N. Cross, City Chemist Kansas City, says: "I have exam ined 'Waxtite' packages. The im portance of this proper sealing and wrapping of food - stuffs in packages is of very great value and an excellent protection and safeguard for the housewife." NORTH DAKOTA Prof. K. K. I. add. Commissioner Ag ricultural College, says: "We en dorso the use of all classes of sanitary packages; and the pack age submitted under the label Waxtite' is to be classed as meet ing all the requirements under the Sanitary I.aw of North Dakota." NEBRASKA Clarence E. Herman, State Food Commissioner, Omaha, says: "1 feel that a food that is ready to eat, which is enclosed in a paper bag, and then placed in a carton, and then the carton wrapper and sealed with parchment paper fully meets the requirements nf the sanitary law." Hon. Jas. E. Dahlmnn. Mayor of Omaha, savs: "The new KellOKK Waxtite package is the best thing I have seen in the wav of food packages for a long time. By the use of this we will be able to se cure our favorite breakfast cereal as fresh and crisp as when it first cornea from the toasters. Success to vou and the Waxtite packae." llr. W. II. Wilson. St.ite I. spoctor. Lincoln, says: "The Vx tlte covering of the carton i" which tbe Kellogg Corn Flakes are packed provides a seal against dirt and contamination. It Is an Improvement that should be looked upon with deep favor by house wives " mm ohk C. J. Iluson, Commissioner M-' partment Agriculture. sa. "The use of waxed paper or other air tight material for wrapping lood products placed on the market should be encouraged. When man ufacturers of food products tak the pains to so wrap tliclr prod ucts. It is pretty good evidence that the same care and sanitary methods were used In their man ufacture." Dr. V. W. tears. H all Syracuse, says: "Ureal care should be exercised in the wrappers for drv food-stuffs. Any covering which will take up moisture Is not as good as a covering which Is Impervious to water, like paraffin or waxed paper." Dr. I rancls Kroncsak. Health Com missioner, Buffalo, says: 'As Health Commissioner of the City of Buffalo, I have repeatedly urged that food-stuffs, wherever practi cable, should be wrapped to pro tect them from contamination, and I am most heartilv In favor of paraffin packages, like the Wax tite package." OKLAHOMA Dr. J. C Xitr, State Commissioner of Health, says: "It Is very Im portant that food products should be protected from hands In han dling. 'Waxtite,' In my opinion, will secure protection from finger pollution, dust, and Insect pollu tion." OHIO Dr. I.ouls Kahn. Hiaith Olflcci. Clt of Columbus, says: "The rules of the Columbus Board of Health have always provided that food stuffs should be properly protect ed from any possible contamina tion, and we therefore heartily In dorse the method used by some manufacturers of food products, which provide for wrapping the same In an Impervious sealed package." FBI NM I.viM.l Dr. .Samuel 0. Dlxoa. Commil Stute Department of Health, says: "There should be more care taken In wrapping the food stuffs to protect them from dirt and dust which frequently contain germs which are not only disease pro ducing but cause decomposition of food-stuffs, producing poisons which are Injurious when eaten by man." Reasons why the Waxtite package keeps the crispness, freshness and flavor of Kellogg's Toasted Corn Flakes are given above. They explain why all package cereal foods should be packed Waxtite. These letters are from officials whose business it is to know how cereal food should be packed. a j j Sid sr. ft. n&M To avoid disappointment don't merely ask Jjourjrrocer for toasted corn flakes but say "KELLOGG S - WAXTITE" and look for this signature.
