Farewell Reception to Mr.. and
Mrs. George Cobb.

In contemplation of the prospec-
| tive removal of Mr.. and Mrs. George
Cobb from the city, their immediate
neighboTs projected and engineered
a reception for them Monday even
ing, an event which occurred at Odd
Fellows hall. A hall of ample ca
pacity was a necessary substitute
for a residence building in conse-
quence of the great number OF peo-
pie who desired to extend farewell
greetings, nearly 200 being present.
This farewell reception was given
to Mr.. and Mrs. Cobb with the in
tention of expressing regret on the
occasion of their conclusion to go
to a new home in the far west and
as an expression of the esteem in
which they are held here, accompa-
MED with the best wishes of all for
their future we'll being.
The evening was passed in pleas
ant social converse although an
undertone Of sadness was present
among all-the honored guests ex-
periencing regret at seyering long
time ties of association and friend
ship and the hosts in the knowledge
that they were to lose the pleasing
companionship of these two excel
lent people who had so long been
associated with the life of the COM
munity, and in which Mrs. Cobb had
gently and with skill nursed so
many back from sickness to health.
A feature of the reception was a
presentation to Mr.. and Mrs. Cobb
Of silver teapot, Rev. E. E. Clough
making the presentation speech, to
which Mrs. Cobb made apt acknowl-
edgment. The guests, for the most
part, recorded their names in lit
tie register, which Mr.. and Mrs.
Cobb will keep as souvenir in con-
nection with the more substantial
gift of silverware. An elegant and
sumptuous repast was served in
connection with the reception
Mr.. and Mrs. Cobb go to North
Yakima, Washington, where they
have bought land, and in their new
home they will be near neigh
bors to Isaac Beers (Mrs. Cobb's
brother) and family, while not far
from their new home reside other
old-time acquaintance.
The expression of all the acquaint-
ances for these good people as they
go to the land of sunshine beyond
the great mountains, is may they
live long and prosper

DIED.

HULL.--At his temporary home in
this city, October -, 1905, Ralph
Herbert Hull aged % years, 5
months and % days.
Bert was born at Geneseo, ILL.,,
April Is, 1888. At the age of three
years he came with his parents to
River Falls, where he lived for IA
years. Five years ago the family
moved to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, the
home of his mothers parents, but a
year ago last summer they moved
back to this city with the intention
of making their permanent home
here, but soon after getting settled
the husband and father was taken
sick, submitted to an operation, and
died. The widow and mother re-
turned to Cedar Rapids. Bert was
then evidently in decline from in
cipient consumption. Continuing
to fail, the mother brought him here,
arriving the 18th of last June. He
was then very feeble but fought per-
sistently against the ravages of the
disease until he was compelled to

weeks ago. He frequently remark
ed that he was not afraid to die but
the mystery of death, which he was
aware he must soon experience,
awed him, and with the character
istic impulses of youth, he wished
to live, to work, to give and to re-
ceive the joys of associations and
friendships. He had been convert
ed in revival last winter and join
ed the M E. church at Cedar Rapids
the early part of June. He passed
into the great beyond few minutes
before midnight last Friday. The
funeral was held from the M. E.
church Sunday at 500 O'Clock in
the afternoon, the services being
conducted by Rev. DR., C1ough, as
sisted by Rev. Erickson, and the re-
mains were buried in Greenwood
cemetery beside those of his father
and an infant sister. The bereaved
mother and the two surviving sis
tiers have the tenderest sympathy of
all in their grievous affection.

Science of the Balanced Ration.

At a convention of dairymen, in a
discussion Of the balanced ration. a
speaker said:
All animals require in the food
enough substance to meet the ex.
penses of the body in carrying on it's
physiological functions. Every move.
ment OF muscle, the beating of the
heart, breathing, etc., requires the
expenditure of energy that comes
largely from certain compounds in
the food, which compounds we call
protein. We know then that if an
animal is to live and work, the food
must contain protein sufficient to
meet their constant expenses. The
harder an animal works the greater
these expenses, hence the more pro.
tein must the food contain.
Again, we give carbohydrates and
fats to accomplish another purpose.
The temperature Of COW is constant.
practically at SO deg. F.. 1t is constant
in man at the same mark. How essen.
tial it is that this constant tempera.
ture be maintained is very apparent
in the human system when we realize
that one-half degree below normal
gives us a chill, while one-half to one
degree above normal gives us a fever
either condition incapacitating the
man for work. If we should attempt
to keep the temperature of a box the
size of cow at SO deg. F. by the aid
OF an oil lamp we would soon be
made aware Of the immense amount
of heat thus required. The animal
herself is constantly keeping up this
enormous expenditure of heat. but she
has only one source upon which to
draw and that is manifestly the food
consumed. The peculiar functions of
the carbohydrates and fats is to keen
up the body supply of heat, in fact
they are more efficient as heat pro-
ducers than are the other compounds
Of the food. The science of a bal
anced ration then consists in supply.
ing enough protein to take care of
the daily waste Of protoplasm to the
animals body and in supplying a
sufficient amount of carbohydrates
and fats to maintain the temperature
of the animals body.

AduIterating Dairy Productr,


The adulteration OF dairy products
does not mean only the putting In of
bulky substances to deceive the GUS
toner that finally buys them. The
term has a much broader meaning in
the view OF the law-making powers
that have attempted to deal with the
subject. Milk may be adulterated by
the addition Of water and that is the
most common way of adulterating 1t,
but the man that adds any preserva-
tive adulterates his milk and is blam-
able under the law. The adulteration
with preservatives is more harmful
to the people than the adulteration by
means of added water. When the
water is added a little money is
filched from the pocket of the con-
sumner, but In adulterating by means
Oh adding formaldehyde the producer
takes the health away from the one
that uses it, If the adulteration be
heavy or IL the consumer be weak.
Adulteration of butter consists gen.
orally of adding what is known as
neutral oil and selling it for butterfat.
But or late years other kinds of adul.
terations have been brought in, many
OF which are more subtle than that of
adding foreign substance to the but
ter. One kind Of adulteration is to
add more water than the butter would
naturally contain by working the but
ter at high temperature. A second
kind OF adulteration is done by churn-
ing at high temperature, thus add
ing large quantity of casein with
the butterfat. The resultant butter
is largely cheese and will develop a
cheesey flavor in a few weeks if not
used. In either case direct fraud has
been committed on the consumer. Not
only should every honest man refrain
from adulterating his butter, but the
officers OF the law should be keen in
hunting out violators of the law
against adulteration.
The common way of adulterating
cheese has been to add neutral oil
and other compounds not butter or
casein to take the place of butter fat
that had been removed. That has
been largely stopped by the officials.
but the new way is to skim off part of
the butter-fat from the milk that is to
be made into cheese, giving a full
cream" cheese that is not full cream.
but has in it too much casein. It is. in
reality, a skim cheese, even though
the milk from which it is made may
be what is known as three per
cent" milk.

Louis flared up as IL angry at Regan's
persistence. Didn't just tell you me

did so as if losing his balance. Dye

tempting to straighten himself up
from the position his drunken actions
had placed him eff Jim really wants

give myself away to this man under

knew him in his double role of himself

recognized as a visitor in Denver's
Office at least, he essayed to work a
dodge on him to throw him from the
scent. LET the Id scoundrel die!

Then as If recollecting himself, he
suddenly asked, "Who are YOU"

hesitation.
"And who is Regain" asked Lang,
puzzling his brain to concoct some
story of a plausible nature to tell him
in reference to the great wrong"
done himself by Denver.
"I'm Denver's side partner"

first time that their stoppage in the
open street 2hd their conversation not
being carried on in low tones, had at
tracted considerable attention.
Regain had realized the same thing,
"Your are right, we had better move

The twain entered the first saloon
they came to, which CHANGED to be
the same basement palace where Den

at convenient table and Louis or
dered the drinks. Regan had his back
turned toward the door (while Louis
faced the stairway and did not notice
the entrance of third party soon aft

he recognized Denver, though that in
dividual was in disguise. A secret
signal given and answered soon

in Louis camp.
For a moment Louis was staggered:
he could see a shade of annoyance
pass over Denver's face. Regan evil

Denver had supposed. ooh, you have,

sparring for time, resolved now to at

Regain leering at him through bleery
eyes.
