London bought 10000 shares early in
the day, but later sold nearly as much
as it bought. There has not been any
considerable revival Of interest abroad
in American stocks since the severe
break Of last week American stocks
were bid up quite sharply in London
before the local opening, probably on
orders from this side, to get a better
basis to sell on.

WASHING THE
DIRTY FRUIT
BY c. ,. Lonsworthy.

It is very important that fruits
should be handled. stored and market
ed under sanitary conditions, as they
are very commonly eaten raw. and
not all persons are careful to wash
them before serving.
Fruit which has fallen to the
ground may be readily soiled with
earth, water or other material which
may contain typhoid or other bacteria
Indeed, cases of infection have been
traced to fruits contaminated In this
or some similar way, and which were
eaten raw without being washed. In
vestigations have also shown that
fruits exposed to street dust and to
other unfavorable conditions become
covered with bacteria, which are al
ways present In such dust-laden air,
and may be possible sources Of con-
tagion. Flies and other insects are
also known to be source Of dirt
and contamination. Samples Of fruit
purchased in the street and examined
by German investigator (Ehrlich)
showed tuberculosis bacteria and
many other forms of micro organisms,
the number present varying consider
ably with different sorts of fruit.
It Is often urged that washing fruit
destroys flavor. On the other hand,
skillful housewives maintain that II
properly done the loss Of flavor is in
appreclable. and on the grounds Of
common cleanliness 1t would seem
best to sacrifice a little flavor, II nee
essary, for the. sake Of removing filth
and possibly dangerous bodies, even
II the amount of dirt present Is too
small to be offensive to sight or taste.
Ehrlich, whose work has been cited,
found that washing fresh fruit once
thoroughly In running water was in
sufficient to remove the micro-organ-
lsms present. II the fruit had been
kept until the sticky surface was more
or less dry, washing two or three
times was found desirable. With ap-
pies and pears he recommends wiping
with a clean dry cloth, followed by
rinsing under the water tap. AS IL

The old-fashioned plan for storing
potatoes in pits has much to recon-
mend 1t when late keeping varieties
are not wanted until spring. A dry
situation should be chosen and the
soil removed enough to make nice
level place about three or four feet
wide, and the pit dug eight to ten
inches deep. Here the potatoes should
be piled up in ridge as high as con-
venient, and covered with layer of
straight straw. following which the
soil from the sides should be dug out
The L'Anse sentinel., 1907-12-14

and placed firmly upon 1t to a thick
ness Of eight inches. Care must be
taken not to get the spade too close
in at the base, or there will be no
foundation for the wall of earth to
rest on. The whole should be beaten
with the back Of the spade, and to
finish 1t q bit Of thatch may be pro
vided to keep 1t dry. The pit may
be carried to any length, but should
be no wider. The position should be
from north to south, and to get pota-
toes in winter the latter end should be
opened.

well known, berries and other soft
fruits sour and mold very readily II
damp; they should therefore be wash
ed Just before they are served.
When fruit is washed the amount
Of material removed is small. In the
case of soft fruits, like berries. with
a surface skin which is very thin and
easily broken. 1t Is almost certain that
larger quantities will be removed
than with firm fruit.
An idea of the amount Of material
removed by washing fresh fruits, such
as the apple, which is protected by q
firm skin, may be gathered from some
French experiments made to study
the effects of washing apples used in
cider making. Each apple In a 45-
pound lot was washed separately In
distilled water. The wash water took
on a dirty black color and also had a
disagreeable odor and analyses
showed that per 1000 pounds of apples
It contained about 0.3 pound total dry
matter, the greater part OF the dry
matter being made up Of sugar, with
smaller amounts of pectin bodies, NAL
ic acid and ash. The juice of washed
and unwashed fruit was practically
Identical in composition. 1t is EVIL
dent that the loss represented is too
small to be of any practical account
from the standpoint Of economy, but
even less than 0.3 pound Of dirt per
1000 pounds Of fruit Is something
which all would wish to avoid when
attention has once been directed to It.

One element OF success IN farming
ls the control of soil moisture, and
the only way this can be accomplish
ed is by the thorough drainage of his
land. For this reason tiles should be
laid at least as far below the surface
as the water level should be in ordf
nary weather Many farmers lose half
Of the benefit of tile draining by lay
ing tho tiles too near the surface OF
the ground being drained. Except in
times Of freshet the water will drain
out Of the soil to the level of the tile
drain, and the roots of the plants will
quickly develop In this medium of
earth. which ID wet but not saturated

KNELT FOR WOOD
SHOT PIERCED BOSOM

About o'clock last evening a long
distance telephone message brought
the shocking news of fatal accident
at Little Falls, Mimi, Mrs. Kueffell,
mother Of Mrs. John Burgess of this
city, being the victim. Mrs. Kueffell
was in the back yard, and as she
knelt to pick up few sticks of wood,
a shot rang out and with a cry Of
anguish she fell to the ground with
the life blood gushing from a gaping
wound in the back and breast.
The bullet was of large calibre and
came from the rifle of a careless hun
ter who was roaming on the banks of
the Mississippi hunting small game.
The accident happened about 6
o'clock last evening and although
medical aid was rushed to the house
and everything within human concep-
ton Is being done for the injured lady,
small hopes for her recovery are en-
tertained. Mrs. Kueffell's close rela-
tons have been summoned to the bed
side. Her daughter, Mrs. Burgess,
wife of John Burgess of the Grand
Forks Realty company, however, with
double load of trouble, is unable to
go to her mother, as her three-year-old
boy is dangerously i'll with typhoid
fever, necessitating the closest care
and attention.

NOT FOR THEIR BENEFIT

Naught-Not Making Rates for
His Benefit.

sion has turned down the protest of
c. R. Rust, of Duluth, in regard to
rates recently made by the commits
sion allowing inland Minnesota cities
to compete with Duluth and the Twin
Cities. In discussing Mr.. Ruts's let
ter, c. F. Staples, one of the commits
sioners said:
I'VE today have on hand complaints
on the other side of the question,
which assert We have not made the in
land distributing point rates low
enough to certain towns-and there
may be something in this. believe in
some instances. the rate will not let
the small jobber make over 81 on the
500. see no reason why Mr.. Rust,
of Duluth, should make special COM
plant, except on the ground that we
are not making rates solely for the
benefit of his town and the Twin
Cities.

cts were purchased. However, by
purchasing tickets to the state line,
the Minnesota law could be taken ad-
vantage of by getting of the train and
purchasing another ticket.
Mr.. Craig states that insomuch as
passenger tariffs on the entire sys-
tenn must be changed. it would be a
physical impossibility to complete the
necessary revision before July 1.
There are 100000 tariffs to be chang
ed, and it will require a large force
of men to handle it.
The tariff from every station on
the entire system to North Dakota and
Minnesota points must be changed,
those two states having declared for
cheaper passenger rates.
Under the arrangement to go into
effect, ticket from point 100 miles
from the state boundary line in North
Dakota to point 200 miles into Min
nesota will cost $3.50. For the 100
miles in North Dakota, 21-2 cents a
mile will be charged. while for the
200 miles in Minnesota, 2 cents mile
will be the charge.

SOME QUEER WRECK CLAIMS
As Result of Recent Limited Wreck on

Notwithstanding the fact that no
one was hurt in the recent wreck of
No. 1 near Jamestown, the claim de-
partment of the road has had several
claims filed for injuries by passengers
who found it out after the company
had made all possible inquiries to de-
termine If anyone was injured. One
man had his watch jewels broken by
the sudden stop and the company re-
paired the damage at an expense Of
$3.50. Another man claimed that he
had a bad back injury, but settled for
$40. 1t is reported that Henry Fisk's
foot is getting along we'll and that the
cast is expected to be removed soon
if it has not already been removed,
and that he will have the continued
use of his limb.
