The state dairy and food department
has learned that some of the preserved
''straw berries and ''raspberries" sold
in Minnesota are mixtures of timothy
seed, broom corn, glucose and sugar.
The department has prosecuted since
Jan. / sixteen dealers for selling adul-
terated preserves, jams and jellies.
Broom corn when put through
steam process, it is said, resembles
raspberry seeds and when mixed with
glucose, acids and sugar makes fair
imitation Of preserved raspberries. >
Timothy seed, while more expensive
than broom corn, is mixed in similar
manner with glucose, acids and sugar
to make preserved strawberries.
Prosecutions of this kind are made on
a law passed in 1901 providing that
adulterated jams and preserves shall
be lableed ''mixed and adulterated. f"
Some manufacturers, finding that they
cannot sell the goods with the label,
have endeavored to pass them off as
pure.
The department in the last few days
has collected sos fines as follows:
Adulterated lard, $25; adulterated spi-
ces, $50; adulterated baking powder,

Insurance Commissioner E. IL.
nearth was advised by Attorney Gen.
eral w. B. Douglas that the new law
requiring fire insurance companies In
towns having fire departments TO con-
tribute per cent OF the premiums
collected to firemen's relief funds,
does not apply to premiums collected
in 1902. This will save the companies
doing business in Minnesota nearly
$4,000.
The total premiums received in
towns having fire departments in 1902
was S4,267, 3O727. The apportionment
for firemen's pensions on this amount
under the old law amounts to $45,-
449.12. If the new law applied, the
apportionment would amount to $685.

Inspectors of the state dairy and
food department returned from in.
pection tours in different parts of the
state.
According to E. X. Slater, of the in
spection in the southern part of the
state, the reputation of Minnesota
butter is seriously threatened by
conditions there. Mr.. Slater says that
the introduction of hand separators
and the lax methods of caring fol
cream are making the quality of but.
ter there lower every month.
In the central part of the state con.
ditions are all that could be desired.
Inspector B. ID. White, who returned
from an extensive trip all through
that section, said that butter is i'm.
proving every week in counties
through which he has been and that
the finest quality of butter in the
world is now being manufactured
there. AS long as the southern part
of the state, however, pulls against
this effort to boost butter, it will be
slow work for the dairy department
to reach desired results.
It is believed, however, by the dairy
officials, that a vigorous campaign in
the southern part of the state will ul-
timately result in far better condi-
tons there. The department has had
so much to do that it has been I'M
able to give the southern dairymen

Death OF Thomas Iona.

officiating. He was taken to Cam
bridge for burial. Mr.. Long came to
this country from England when a
young man, to escape service in the
British army. This was not because
he did not love his country, nor be-
cause he lacked the true spirit of pa
triotiSm, but because he did not like
the wag that England, in that day,
treated her soldiers.
Mr.. Long did most excellent service
for this count y, serving her nob'y
all through the Mexican war, and
again all through the late Rebellion.
For this service he seceived small
pension only, as a veteran in the Mex
lean war. He was SO years old. No
relatives, as far as is known, survive
him. But he is remembered by all
who knew him as quiet tunassuming,
kindly man.
