BOX ELDER REVIEW.

Everyone is busy planting corn and
making garden.
We understand that Mr.. Daniel Doyle
is goingto build a new house soon.
The barn on MIR. Kings place is
completed and the house is progressing
finely.
The fall grain IS looking we'll, espe-
cially that which was put in with a
press drill.
Last year there were 1900 bushels
of onions raised in Box Elder, this year
with an equally good crop there will be
over two thousand bushels.
We understand that the Tear Bros.
who have rented the farms Of Messrs,
Dole and Boyle are planting 200 acres
Of corn besides putting in about 80
acres Of small grain.
Mr.. Brewer had just put his wells
and pump in working order and began
irrigating his garden one afternoon, but
that night the windows Of heaven were
opened and the irrigation process pro
ceeded from the clouds.
MI. Seasons have moved from their
farm here to their place near Red Will
low. Their residence among US during
the past five years has been marked by
many pleasant social events, and it is
with feeling of profound regret that we
witness their departure.

We call the attention Of our readers
to the advertisement of The Call in
another column. Since its reduction
in price The Call is the cheapest
daily in Nebraska, and its spicy and
independent policy is too well known
to need comment from us. In reduc-
ing the price of The Call so as to put
it within the reach of everybody, the
management have placed themselves a
decided step in advance of all other
publishers in the state. This is an era
of popular prices for the newspaper,
and The Call is, as usual, at the head
of the procession.

THE ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE
Looking After tho Alum and Ammonia
Baking Powders.
[Chicago Inter-O cean.1

A bill for an act, entitled "An Act
to Regulate the Traffic in Baking Pow
DER has been introduced in the Legis-
lature at Springfield, by Mr.. Nohe.
The bill is intended to prevent the
authorizations of baking powders with
Ammonia or Alum, imposing proper
penalties to enforce the law, etc. This
shows an earnest desire on the part Of
our representative to protect their con
stituents.
The Chicago Tribune, referring to
the question Of legislation on Alum
and Ammonia baking powder, says: ut
deals in a direct manner with an evil
that must be cut down"
"Following is a partial list of the
brands sold in this state that have been
examined and found to contain either
Ammonia or Alum. Many of the Alum
and Ammonia powders are labeled and
advertised as absolutely pure to mislead
the public: Calumet" "Grant's Bon
Bon," "Hotel," "Taylor's One Spoon"
"Forest City, ""Chicago Yeast" ''Clim-
AK" "Monarch," "Rocket," STANDARD"
"Mokaska," clown Talk" "Manhat-
TAM" *. c." "Loyal."
In addition to the above list there is
a multitude of brands sold with a prize.
It is safe to reject all baking powders
sold with a prize, as the tests show
they are composed largely Of alum and
cost but a few cents per pound, or less;
it is sure to contain alum.
Surely nothing but their ~cheapness
could induce the public to experiment
with these impure powders at the risk
of health or the wholesomeness Of these
condemned powders, and viewed from
the standpoint Of economy alone, a pure
grape cream Of tarter baking powder
like CDR. Price's," from its greater
known strength and unquestionable
purity, will prove more economical to
the user.
