A very interesting and important
bulletin and one that should be in the
hands of all housewives in the state
is Bulletin No. 81 of the State Agri-
cultural college and experiment sta
ton, prepared by Prof E. F. Ladd,
state pure food commissioner, and
dealing with the analyses of samples
of food products that have been sent
in to the commissioner from all parts
of the state 1t is pamphlet of about
sixty pages, giving the results of the
experiments that have been made,
showing the great extent to which
adulteration in food products is prac-
ticed and the comparatively few of the
products analyzed that are legal, un
der the present pure food law of the
state. 1t has been stated in times
past owing to the insufficient legisla-
ton of this state on the matter that
North Dakota has been the dumping
ground for manufacturers to rid them
selves of their cheap and adulterated
products. This contention would seem
well founded after reviewing Prof.
Ladd's analyses, and reading his com
ments on the quality OF the prepared
food products sold in the state.
Since the taking effect of the Dure
food law Prof. Ladd has analyzed S5l
separate samples of food products an.
has passed upon the labelling of nearly
a thousand additional products. He
has also communicated with manufact-
urers and dealers regarding the re
suits of analyses of their goods, and
in this way endeavored to work in
harmony with manufacturers. endeav-
oring to induce them to put their
goods in shape to comply with the
law. Prof. Ladd believes that the
dealers in the great majority OF cases
are innocent. but have no means OF
knowng whether their purchases are
adulterated
The majority of jobbers and MANI
facturers. according to Prof. Ladd,
have frequently changed labels, in or
der that there might be no deception
upon purchasers There are three
cart nal principles laid down in the

FOR NEW CANAL TREATY.
Colombian Senate Committee Submits
Its Report

Bogota, Colombia. Oct 15.-The sen.
ate committee charged with drawing
up bill authorizing the president CT
the republic TO negotiate a new canal
treaty with the United States has
presented the project to the senate.
II provides that the latter must ap
prove OF disapprove the extension OF
the concession for six years granted
to the new Panama Canal company in
1900. If this is disapproved Colon
bia will reiSlburse $l000.000 to the
company, with interest. and will take
possession OF the canal works next
year. in which case this republic will
then be able to negotiate new treaty
with the United States. If the eXten-
sion OF the concession is approved by
the senate the new Panama Canal
company will have until the year 1910
to fulfill its obligations.
The senate will take up the bill on
Monday
1t is pointed out that authorizations
given to the executive BY the senate
to negotiate treaties are valueless, as
the executive. according to the const,
tuition, can negotiate treaties without
authorization from me senate anG
present them to congress for approval

CASE GOES TO THE JURY.
Fate Of James II. Tlllman Hangs in
the Balance.

Lexington, S. c.. Oct. l5.-The ease
of former Lieutenant Governor TIL
man, charged with the murder of Ed

p. m.
Colonel Croft, of counsel for the de-
fense. resumed his argument when
court convened. He reviewed some OF
the chief law points and made final
summing up of the evidence. He was
followed by General Bellinser, who
made the closing argument for the
state.
Senator Tillman, uncle of the de-
fendant, was in court.
General Bellinger closed at l2:45
D. m. Judge Gary Immediately en-
tered upon his charge to the jury.
After defining murder and the differ
ent degrees of homicide the court
charged the jury that plea OF self
defense having been set up the jury
must be satisfied by preponderance OF
evidence that the defendant was with
out fault in bringing on the difficulty;
that he believed he was at the time
in danger of receiving serious bodily
injury or losing his life and that
reasonable man of ordinary firmness,
courage. prudence and reason would
have reached the sane conclusion.

PROFESSOR LADD
ON FOOD PRODUCTS
Synopsis OF Bulletin No. 81, an Interesting
and Instructive Pamphlet on Adulter=
alton OF Food Products.

preservatives: second, no coal tar
dyes; all food products must be lab
eled so that there shall be no decep-
tiOn.
In a bulletin issued in 1902. Prof
Ladd reported the presence of formal
dehyde as a preservative in many ar
ticles This bulletin aroused a storm
of objection from many manufacturers
Since the publication Of that bulletin
Prof. Ladd finds that many manufact-
urers in whose goods this preservative
had been found. have discontinued its
use largely. but the use of boracic acid
has become more general
In the analysis of condensed milk,
where formaldehyde was found. the
manufacturers protested that they did
not use fOrmaldehyde, but further in
vestigation disclosed that it was pres
ent in the milk when delivered at
their factory Again, in the examina-
ton of mince meat, preservatives were
found and investigation disclosed that.
while the makers did not use preserva-
tives. they were present in the raisins
and currants that were used in it, and
so strongly that single raisin gave
pronounced reaction.
Many tests of canned goods dis
closed the presence of formaldehyde.
although manufacturers protested they
did not use it. making the claim that
formaldehyde must have formed in the
cans by chemical changes after the
goods were canned Prof Ladd does
not attempt to account for its presence
but in commenting upon the matter
says that he has no reason to believe
that where goods are properly canned
formaldehyde would be formed after
ward He examined several cans OF
fermented foods. finding no formalde-
hyde and was not able to induce it by
treating canned goods under like con
ditions In several samples of canned
beans analyzed. Prof. Ladd says:
"The amount OF ormaldehyde YVES
so large that in the distillate in max
ing some special tests the fumes of tn :.
formaldehyde were given off so as t.
bring tears to the eyes Of the chemist
making the test and its odor was read.

OUTPUT is DECREASING.
South African Company Advance the
Price of Diamonds.

New York. Oct. 15-Leading dia.
mond merchants in this city have re.
ceived cable advices from the dealers
in London. Amsterdam and Antwerp
that the diamond selling syndicate OF
the De Beers company of South AT
rica has advanced the price on all
small rough" goods per cent and the
price of the larger rough diamonds 10
per cent The syndicate handles the
entire output of the De Beers com
pany, which produces, it is said, about
95 per cent of the total output of the
world.
The advance is the third since Feb
ruary and diamonds were then selling
higher than they had been since the
consolidation of the South African
mines in the seventies.
The reasons given for the advance
are manifold, but the general opinion
seems to be that the output of the
Kimberley field is decreasing Dia-
mond importations to this country
show decline recently.

CRAWlS ALONG NARROW LEDGE.
Deed of Insane Man a Hundred Feet
Above Ground.

Minneapolis, Oct. l5.-In frenzy OF
terror, with the superhuman strength
OF madness. Joseph Brown, confined
in the insane ward OF the Hennepln
county jail, tore away the bars OF his
cell and window and. reaching the out
side window ledge, crawled around on
an eight-nch ledge distance OF
eight feet. over 100 feet from the
ground.
1t is regarded as one of the most
remarkable feats ever accomplished
by human being.
People who witnessed the daring
act say that the mans strength and
nerve were phenomenal
When the guards discovered the
mans absence they rushed to the
window expecting to see his dead body
on the ground below But he was dis
covered trying to crawl in at another
window and was dragged to safety.

Gamers dilute their tomatoes with
water so extensively that the stuff is
known by experts as "swill." Prol.
Ladd says:
1--WE have examined one samplc OF
canned tomatoes which shoul prop
civ be classed as "swill," No. 72S, ana
when the contents Of the car we're

ter gave 81 per cent OF filtrate and l.

This "swill'' like product was put III
in the state of Maryland and Della
ware. If the present food law does
| not make illegal the sending into
North Dakota such "swill'' to be sole
as food products then the same should
be amended. The matter will probabl,
be brought to the attention of the
courts in the near future. The cases

Prof. Ladd also gives reason for his
ruling that saccharin (coal tar sugar.
is prohibited in food products under
the North Dakota law The saccharin
has no food value and must be elim'
mated by the Kidneys in the processes
of digestion and assimilation Its use
he says, is deception, and he will
stand on his ruling until the courts

BARS OUT sAccHARiN.
Famous "SWeetener" Barred out Of
North Dakota when used in Foods.

Saccharin. the famous coal tar pro-
duct, "sweeter than sugar" has been
barred from the state of North Dakota.
E. F. Ladd, the dairy and food commits
sioner of this state has issued a circu-
lar declaring the use of saccharin
violation of the pure food law.
DR.. H. w. Wiley, chief of the bureau
of chemistry of the United States de-
partment of agriculture, declares that
saccharin is injurious to health, and
its use is to be prohibited. The feder-
al law prohibits its Importation, but 1t
is made extensively in this country
and used in a variety Of ways without
restriction. North Dakota is the first
state to put up the bars against it.
The most common use of saccharin
is in canned corn. 1t gives the corn
an artificial sweetness and also acts as
preservative The big Gamers
claim they cannot get along without it.
Some small concerns in Minnesota put
up corn without it and use sugar, but
saccharin is less expensive and is
hard to compete with. Canned peas
usually contain saccharin. Its use is
common in beers and elders, in pre-
serves, jellies and jams, in sweet
pickles. and above ALL in candy. Much
candy Is made of glucose, which is not
as sweet as cane sugar. so the sacch-
arin Is used to add sweetness
One pound of saccharin gives a
sweetening effect equal to $50 pounds
OF the best granulated sugar. tiny
speck of the white powder, placed on
the tongue. will fill the mouth with
sweet taste for an hour, as if lump OF
loaf sugar had been dissolved. The
powder is even used to sweeten sugar
The best grades do not need swee.ening
but granulated sugar seconds are
deficient in sweetening power, and
they are often helped out by sweet
ening Of saccharin.
Advocates of saccharin claim that IT
is harmless 1t Is used as medicine
in diabetes and other kidney diseases
that require the sufferer to abstain
from sugar. The highest medical au-
thorities agree, however. that the con
tinued use of saccharin is injurious tc
the system. 1t affects the kidneys
1t is also an antiseptic; therefore II
has retarding effect on digestion. A
very weak solution interferes with thf
action Of the digestive juices. Add te
this the fact that it has no nutrlti!'
value whatever and it is easy to sec
why DR.. Wiley condemns its use as
