THE MINNESOTA LEGISLATURE
Again looking After the Alum and Am

Again looking After the Alum and Am
mOnis baking Powders.
A bill for an act in relation to the manu-.
facturo and sale Of baking powders. to pre-
vent fInud and preserve the public health
has been introduced in the legislature At st.
Pau says the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Tho
bill is intended to prevent the adulteration
of baking powders with alum or ammonia,
imposing proper penalties to enforce the
law. etc.
This shows an earnest desire on the part
of GU. state representatives to protect their
constituents.
The Chicago Tribune. refer ing to the
question Of legislation on alum and am
monia baking powders. says: 1T deals in
a direct manner with an evil that must be
cut down.
DR.. Chas. w. Drew. chemist for the Min
nesotn state Dairy and Food Commission
IN his elaborate report of 1892, gives a list
OF one hundred and seyenty-three different
brands of alum baking powders alone-sold
in Minnesota.
Following is n list of the more widely
known brands that DR.. Drew, as we'll as
other chemists of high standing, have ex-
amined and found to contain alum, and
some OF which contain both alum and am
monia. Many Of the alum and ammonia
powders are labeled and advertised as "ab-

In addition to tho above list, there is q
multitude of brands sold with a Srize. 1t
is safe to reject all baking powders sold
with a prize az the tests show they are com.

The checks of these plnids are large, as
strongly contracted. Indeed, the present
rules for combinations of shades permits
many contrasts which were at one time con-
sidered inadvisable. Thus white and scar

THE NORTHERN CITRUS BELT.
1t is the First to Begin Work at the
Big Fair.
Contractor Garlic Erecting the Exhibit
tfon Building-Citizens Asked
to Help the Display.

The Northern and Central California
Midwinter Fair Association is displaying
creditable energy.in preparing for the ex-
hibit to be made in Sunset City of the
products of this section of the State.
1t has already, as stated in the RECORD
! UNION yesterday, let the contract for the
erection of its building on the Midwinter
| Fair grounds, and Silas Carle of this city
| is already there with a big force of me-
chanics to erect the structure. The fact
| that Mr.. Carle has secured the contract is
sufficient guarantee that the work will be
| quickly but thoroughly done.
Mr.. Hail stated to RECORD UNION re-
porter yesterday that the Executive Com
mittee of the association will meet IN
about two weeks to allot space to the
several counties that are to make eX-
hibits, and expressed the belief that
when the electric button is pressed on
opening day of the fair, the building will
/ be completed and every exhibit in place.
| This, he thinks, will not be the case with
| some of the other buildings.
! 1t is earnestly desired by the officers of
the association that every county will
work with will to make the best ex-
hibit possible and that each will try to
Outdo the other.
AS for Sacramento, Mr. Hall said the
faith of this county has been pledged to
| having it creditably represented at the
great exposition, and every citizen in the
county should manifest personal pride
in making the exhibit alf that 1t should
be.
To this end the request is made that all
who have oranges, lemons or other citrus
fruits growing on their premises care
| fully save the best fruit for the fair.
There will be great rivalry between
counties in the matter of making a fine
showing Of citrus fruits, and every citi-
zen should feel it incumbent on him to
aid the County Commission as far as pos
sible.
Individual efforts should not, of course,
be confined to making fine citrus dis
play, but in every department of horti-
culture, agriculture, Horticulture, the me-
chanic arts, the fine arts, wood, building
stOne-in fact, of everything useful or or
namental that might go to the credit of a
community in the competition for in
creased population.
+. Greer came up from San Francisco
yesterday, where he had been to see the
work started on the building. He was
very enthusiastic over the outlook for a
big fair. MIR. Greer says the people of
the interior can have no conception of the
magnitude of the work outlined in
Golden Gate Park, and declares that it
would well repay ali who can spare an
occasional day to go TO San Francisco and
| see for himself.

are 90 besieged by applicants for space.

dent that Sacramento County will, as
