sought its modification so that stock
could be admitted into the territory from
prohibited or dangerous districts.
Therefore be it resolved that the chair
appointed a committee OF five who shall
)-he fully empowered to send for persons
and papers and take full testimony upon
the action of members Of this association
touching the driving and SHIPPING of live
stock into the territory from prohibited
or dangerous districts, and report the
testimony taken and their recommended
tions to the next meeting Of this a~ssocia-
ii N.
Messrs. B, T. Potts, Granville Stuart,
Azei Ames, ]. 8. Day and l.. Is. Ray were
appointed such committee.
Granville Stuart, chairman of the
board of stock commissioners, presented
the reports Of the various stock inspectors
as to estrays noted.
Messrs. TAYLOR and Ford, Of Choteau
county, complained that the inspector for
that county was incompetent. He did
not know n brand from another and,
NEST disgusting of all, drove about the
ranges in Il dog cart, though the cart had,
lately been captured and was now at Dir.
Iaylor,s ranch on exhibition as a ccriosi
ty Of the stock service.
Mr.. Stuart was glad to gain the inform
alton, which would be duly acted upon.
At this stage Mr.. Stuart had to leave the
meeting, and upon motion Of DR.. Ames
a vote Of thanks was rendered him.
1t was announced by Territorial Veter-
marian Keefer that no cattle or horses had
been killed by reason of disease, to be a
charge upon the fund created for that
purpose. The question then arose as to
what was to he done with the money ae-
cumulatad this year and last in the stock
indemnity fund, and which by law is not
available for any other purpose. The
committee on legislation was asked to
take cognizance OF this subject and DR..
keefer was requested to present to the
committee his views on the subject.
After some desultory talk the a~ssocia-
ton adjourned sine die.

What Baking Powder Shall We Use

What Raking Powder Shall We Use.
This plain question comes home to
every house-kecper. We all desire pure
and wholesome food, and this cannot be
had with the use Of impure or poisonous
baking powder. There can be no longer
a question that all the cheaper, lower
grade of baking powders contain either
alum, lime Or phosphate acid. AS 10th
as we may be te admit SO much against
what may have been some Of our house
hold gods, there can be 10 g~ainsaying the
unanimous testimony of the official chem
lists. Indeed, analysts seem to find no
baking powder entirely free from some
one of these Objectionable ingredients ex-
cept the Royal, and that they report as
chemically pure. We find some Of the
baking powders advertised as pure, to con-
tain, under the tests Of Profs. Chandler,
Habirshaw and others, nearly twelve per
cent. of lime, while others are made frem
alum with no croam Of tartar. This, we
presume accounts for their lack of ~leaven-
ing power as sometimes complained of by
the cook, and for the bitter taste found in
the biscuits so frequently complained of
by ourselves.
But aside from the inferiority of the
work done by these powders, the physi-
ologists assure US that lime and alum
taken into the system in such quantities
as this are injurious. They are not de-
composed by heat nor dissolved by mix
ing or baking. They go with the bread,
therefore, into the stomach, where their
physiological effects are indigestion, dys-
pepsia, or worse evils.
The question naturally arises, why do
these cheap baking powder makers use
these things? Alum is three cents a
pound, lime still cheaper, while cream of
tartar costs t%hirty-ive to forty. The
reasons for the chemical purity of the
Royal Baking Powder We're recently given
in the New York Times in an interesting
description of q new method for refining
argols, or crude cream of tartar. Itseems
that only under this process can the cream
of tartar be freed from the lime natural
to it and rendered chemically pure; that
the patents and plant for this cost the
Royal Baking Powder Company about
half a million dollars, and they maintain
exclusive control of the rights.
Prof. McMurtrie, late chief chemist of
the Department of Agriculture at Wash
ington, D. G., in the interests IF commerce
made an examination of this process, and
reported upon the results attained in the
cream of tartar. The following
extract from his report would seem to
the question repeated at the head
of this article, and which is so frequently
propounded by the house-keeper:
Il have examined the cream of tartar
used by the Royal Baking Powder Com
pany in the manufacture of their baking
powder, and find it to be perfectly pure,
and free from lime in any form. The
chemical tests to which | have submitted
