The announcement that m'eal unfit for human consumption has been found on the market in this county and is believed to be res-ponsible for the prevalence of that dreadled dis ease, pellagra, among the people of certain localities where it has been sold, is a matter of supreme concern to people of this county. In three mill villages in this county near the city pellagra exists to an alarming extent and if it can be traced to the sale of inferior corn products it is the duty of the State authorities to make the most painstaking and thorough in vestigation of the situation with a view to punishing the parties responsible for its sale. There are many theories as to the cause of this disease and if it can be definitely traced in tile case under in vestigation here much good will have Ibeen accomplished.
