"A Cheerful Look

"Cheertnl looks - depend
Just as mach upon physical

disposition and temperament.
IF the blood IS dsordered,

"dsh is a feast, :" for the
reason that the Vftalfsing
elements do not reach the
proper spot.
A step in the right direction is
to purify the body by the use of a
natural remedy. Hoods Sarsaparilla
is Natures remedy. 1t acts upon the
blood, and whether the seat of the dis
order is brain, stomach, liver or kid

medicine is equally sure and successful.

Value of Grain in POrk-Making.

In summing up the different values
OF fJod for swine the director Of the
Montana agricultural experiment sta
tiOn says:
By combination Of grain and legu-
minous pastures pigs can be grown to
a weight Of $50 pounds st cJst of &c a
pound. Alfalfa, clover, peas, wheat
and barley make the best Of pig feed.
Alfalfa or clover pasture, with a little
grain in summer, affords conditions
for the cheapest growth and the great
est profit.
The pea, combined with grain, is
well adapted to the wants Of the grow
ing animal, and will give the greatest
gains on the smallest amount Of feed.
The lot, fed equal parts Of barley,
wheat peas, made gain Of pound in
weight for ass pounds Of food when
the pigs were oetweeR the weights Of
III and 2O9.s pounds.
Pigs fed ON barley or barley and
wheat at present market prices will
pay for all food consumed when pork
is 3se pound.
Pigs make the greatest gains and at
q less cost Of grain before they reach
30 TO 2l0 pounds in weight.
Phe quality Of pork produced from
wheat, barley and peas in the various
combinations used is firm and well
adapted for the production Of hams
and bacon, the fat and lean Of the meat
being well distributed.

AsTRIEeESr FOOD LAW.
Prohibits the Use of Arsenic or Alum
in all Articles of Diet.

The law enacted by the Missouri
legislature, and which prohibits the
manufacture or sale of any article in
tended for food or TO be used in the
preparation Of food, which contains
alum, arsenic, ammonia, etc. places
that state in the lead in the matter Of
sanitary legislation.
Laws restricting the use of alum ir.
bread have been in force in England,
Germany and France for many year,.
In this country, in Minnesota, Wis
consin, Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky and
several other States, direct legislation
in reference to the sale Of alum baking
powders has also been effected. 10
several OF these States their sale is pro-
hibited unless they are branded to show
that they contain alum, and in the Dis
trict Of Columbia, under the laws Of
Congress, the sale Of bread containing
alum has been made illegal.
Following are the names Of some Of
the brands Of baking powder sold in
this vicinity which are shown by re-
cent analysis to contain alum. House
keepers and grocers should cut this list
out and keep it for reference:
Baking Powders Containing Alum;
DAVIS o. X. Contains Alum.
Il. b. Davis & Co., New York.
THE COOKS Contains Alum.
Cooks Baking Powder Co, PittsburE.
CROWN Contains Alum.
J.P Dieter Co., Chicago.
CALUMET Contains Alum.
Calumet Baking Powder Co.. Chicago.
LC. Contains Alum.
Jaques Mfg. Co. Chicago.
PEPSIN Contains Alum.
Geo Hubbard & Co., Pittsburg.
BON BON Contains Alum.
Grant Chemical Co, Chicago.
LENTON Contains Alum.
Potter-Parlin Co., New York.
JOHNS Contains Alum.
Johns Baking Powder Co., Cleaveland.
SUNFLOWER Contains Alum.
JIM. Fahnstock 4 Bro, Pittsburg.
The housekeeper should bear in mind
that alum makes cheap baking pow
der. It costs but two cents a pound
while cream OF tartar costs thirty. The
quality Of the powder Is therefore
usually indicated by the price.
