KENTUCKY  AGRICULTURAL  EXPERIMENT  STATION. 
To  the  Kentucky  Retail,  Wholesale  and  Manufacturing  Druggists: 
Two  years'  work  under  the  Kentucky  Food  and  Drugs  Act  has 
convinced  those  engaged  in  the  enforcement  of  the  drug  sections  of 
that  Act,  that  there  are  two  classes  of  adulteration :  first,  adultera- 
tions due  to  wilful  intent  or  gross  carelessness ;  second,  adulterations 
due  to  various  trade  and  professional  problemiS,  which  this  office 
believes  can  be  better  overcome  through  mutual  assistance  rather 
than  prosecution. 
For  the  purpose  of  introducing  educational  and  co-operative 
methods  with  respect  to  the  second  class  problems,  this  Division 
proposes  to  conduct  a  short  term  school  for  druggists  and  others 
engaged  in  the  drug  business,  of  about  ten  days'  duration,  during 
the  last  of  April  or  the  first  of  May.  It  is  proposed  to  take  up  at 
this  school  the  following  subjects:  {a)  The  general  application  of 
the  State  and  Federal  pure  food  laws  for  the  drug  business;  {b) 
the  drug  regulations  and  notices  of  judgment  under  the  Federal 
law;  (c)  the  regulations  under  the  State  law;  {d)  the  proper 
labelling  oi  patent  and  proprietary  medicines  under  the  law;  {e) 
the  proper  labelling  of  U.S. P.  and  National  Formulary  products 
under  the  law;  (/)  necessary  equipment  for  a  druggist's  laboratory; 
{g)  drug  store  management  and  equipment;  {h)  problems  con- 
nected with  the  preparation,  storage  and  handling  of  various  pharma- 
ceutical preparations;  {i)  standard  weights  and  measures;  (/) 
the  soda  fountain;  (k)  other  similar  subjects. 
These  matters  will  l)c  presented  hy  the  experts  of  this  office
