A bill for an act in relation to the manufacture and sale of baking powders, to prevent fraud and preserve the public health has been introduced in the Legislature at St, Paul. The bill is intended te prevent the adulteration of baking powders with Alum or Ammonia, imposing proper penalties to enforce the law. Dr. O. S. Binswanger, Professor Chemistry, etc., meiical department University of Oregon, made an examination some time ago of the baking powders found in the Portland stores ; the result of which appeared in the Orzconran, Dr. Binswanger then expressed himself as follows: “Ihave just finished an analysis of the principal baking powders sold in this market, with the following results : ‘‘Heroules.”” This powder contains ammonia. “Crystal.” This'‘powder contains alum, alum. “Silver Star.” This powder contains alum. “White Lily.” This powder contaius alum. “Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder.” This ig a pure cream of tartar powder and contains neither alum nor ammonia. It will be observed that Dr. Price’s was found by Dr. Binswanger to be a pure cream of tartar baking pewder and the only brand free from alum, ammonia or any impurity Following is a list of the more widely known brands that Dr. Drew, chemist for the Minneseta State Dairy and Foed Commission, as well as other chemists of high standing have examined and found to contain Alum, some of which contain both Alum and Ammonia. Many of the Alum and ‘Ammonia powders are labeled and advertised as “‘absolutely pure” te mislead the public. The condemned powder given in this list are sold, pretty generally through Oregon and Washington, “Calumet,” ‘Forest City,” ‘Grant's Bon Bon,” ‘‘Hotel,” ‘‘Globe,” ‘*Puritan,”’ “Snow Ball,” “Government,” Se: sae “Loyal,” ‘Columbie,” “Heme,” * onarch,” ‘Unriveled,”’ {‘Chicage Yeast,” ‘*Echo,” ‘Per. fection,” ‘White Kose,” ‘\Hatchet,”” “Crown,” In addition to the above list there are many brands sold with a prize. It is safe to reject all baking powders sold with a prize, as the tests show they are semposed largely of Alum and cost but a few cents a pound, Also refuse any baking powder sold for twenty-five cents a pound, or less ; it is sure to contain Alum. Surely, nothing but their cheapness could induce the public to experiment with these from the questien of the health pr wholesomeness of these condemned powders, and viewed Irom tne # OIG ef puwuvmy alone, a pure cream of tartar baking powder, such as Dr, Binswanger and other high authorities report ‘Dr. < Price’s to be, and from its greater known strength and unquestioned purity, sliould prove more economical to the user in every way. —-+9O@2-o— A Belligerent Stranger. A few weeks ago a hostler at Glenbrook Park, @ stranger; here, assaulted Geerge Irving and used the latter very roughly. Although a warrant was sworn out for him he was not arrested until last Friday, when Marshal Dennen of Grass Valley locked him up. Saturday Constable Dillon of this city went down after the prisoner and brought him to the county jail, Friday . this stranger beat John Irving with a board in a most brutal manner. As soon as Irving gets around he will swear out a warrant for the fellow’s arrest. —_——-—-+0@e--—_—___-_ Military Election.

A bill for an act in relation to the manufacture and sale of baking powders, to prevent fraud and preserve the public health has been introduced in the Legislature at St, Paul. The bill is intended te prevent the adulteration of baking powders with Alum or Ammonia, imposing proper penalties to enforce the law. Dr. O. S. Binswanger, Professor Chemistry, etc., meiical department University of Oregon, made an examination some time ago of the baking powders found in the Portland stores ; the result of which appeared in the Orzconran, Dr. Binswanger then expressed himself as follows: “Ihave just finished an analysis of the principal baking powders sold in this market, with the following results : ‘‘Heroules.”” This powder contains ammonia. “Crystal.” This'‘powder contains alum, alum. “Silver Star.” This powder contains alum. “White Lily.” This powder contaius alum. “Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder.” This ig a pure cream of tartar powder and contains neither alum nor ammonia. It will be observed that Dr. Price’s was found by Dr. Binswanger to be a pure cream of tartar baking pewder and the only brand free from alum, ammonia or any impurity Following is a list of the more widely known brands that Dr. Drew, chemist for the Minneseta State Dairy and Foed Commission, as well as other chemists of high standing have examined and found to contain Alum, some of which contain both Alum and Ammonia. Many of the Alum and ‘Ammonia powders are labeled and advertised as “‘absolutely pure” te mislead the public. The condemned powder given in this list are sold, pretty generally through Oregon and Washington, “Calumet,” ‘Forest City,” ‘Grant's Bon Bon,” ‘‘Hotel,” ‘‘Globe,” ‘*Puritan,”’ “Snow Ball,” “Government,” Se: sae “Loyal,” ‘Columbie,” “Heme,” * onarch,” ‘Unriveled,”’ {‘Chicage Yeast,” ‘*Echo,” ‘Per. fection,” ‘White Kose,” ‘\Hatchet,”” “Crown,” In addition to the above list there are many brands sold with a prize. It is safe to reject all baking powders sold with a prize, as the tests show they are semposed largely of Alum and cost but a few cents a pound, Also refuse any baking powder sold for twenty-five cents a pound, or less ; it is sure to contain Alum. Surely, nothing but their cheapness could induce the public to experiment with these from the questien of the health pr wholesomeness of these condemned powders, and viewed Irom tne # OIG ef puwuvmy alone, a pure cream of tartar baking powder, such as Dr, Binswanger and other high authorities report ‘Dr. < Price’s to be, and from its greater known strength and unquestioned purity, sliould prove more economical to the user in every way. —-+9O@2-o— A Belligerent Stranger. A few weeks ago a hostler at Glenbrook Park, @ stranger; here, assaulted Geerge Irving and used the latter very roughly. Although a warrant was sworn out for him he was not arrested until last Friday, when Marshal Dennen of Grass Valley locked him up. Saturday Constable Dillon of this city went down after the prisoner and brought him to the county jail, Friday . this stranger beat John Irving with a board in a most brutal manner. As soon as Irving gets around he will swear out a warrant for the fellow’s arrest. —_——-—-+0@e--—_—___-_ Military Election.
