Baking Economy.

/ By the use of perfect baking pow.
der the housewife can derive as
much economy as from any other
article used in baking and cooking
In selecting baking powder, there
fore, care should be exercised tc
/ purchase one that retains its ori@i.
nal strength and always remains the
same, thus making the food sweet
and wholesome and producing suffi-
cient leavening gas to make the
baking light.
Very little of this leavening gas is
produced by the cheap baking pow
ders, making it necessary to use
double the quantity ordinarily re-
quired to secure good results.
You cannot experiment every time
you make cake or biscuits, or test
the strength of your baking pow
der to find out how much of it you
should use; yet with most baking
powders you should do this, for they
are put together SO careiessly they
are never uniform, the quality and
strength varying with each can pur-
chased,
Calumet baking powder is made
Of chemically pure ingredients Of
tested strength. Experienced che
mists put it up. The proportions of
the different materials remain al
ways the same. Sealed in air-tight
cans Calumet baking powder does
not alter in strength and is not
affected by atmospheric changes.
In using Calumet you are bound
to have uniform bread, cake or
biscuits, as Calumet does not con-
tain any cheap, useless or adulterat-
ing ingredients SO commonly used
to increase the weight. Further, ! it
produces pure, wholesome food and
is baking powder of rare merit;
therefore, is recommended by lead
ing physicians and chemists It
complies with all pure food laws,
both state and national. The goods
are moderate in price, and any lady
purchasing Calumet from her gro
Ger, if not satisfied with it can re-
turn it and have her money re-
funded.

County Commissioners. Eckstein,
Polkow and Jorgenson of Brown

Lamberton Star: Altho the farm
ers institute was gotten up on very
short notice there were some 400
farmers present last Friday at the
meeting held in the opera house.
w. W. Mcconnell, who had charge
of the meeting, expressed himself
as being we'll pleased with the large
number of farmers present.
New Tim Review: A letter re-
ceived from Richard Baasen in Cal
gary, Northwest territory, the past
week, says that the temperature
there for some weeks ranged from
80 to 45, and even went as low as go
degrees below zero. Funerals from
exposure to cold and freezing were
daily occurrences. and $50 sacks of
delayed mail arrived in a single day.

In dispatch to the Minneapolis
Journal from Mankato the fore part
of last week some railroad..news is
talked which, if it materializes, will
give Redwood Falls another line and
a short route to Chicago. The dis
patch reads: .'The Milwaukee road
may build from Granite Falls to
Mankato to connect here with.what
is known as the Alphabet road
and thus secure an outlet to Chi
cage shorter by great many miles
than by way of the twin cities. The
Alphabet" project is being pushed
by the Milwaukee andj line down
the Minnesota river to connect with
it is not wholly visionary. The SAL
phabet" runs from Albert LEA in s
northwesterly direction toward Man
kato and as originally planned wa
to have passed on to St. Cloud. TIL,
grading is done and steel laid to
point in Waseca county. Captain A
H, Reed Of Glencyv was the pro
) jector of the road, butsssold out t
: one Tobie, who has been pushing
the construction. If the Milwaukee
is really behind the scheme, and i
, it should build from Granite Fall
J to Mankato, in all probability thi
+ extension would be likely to- pas
thru Redwood Falls. If this exten
sion should be built Redwood Fall
and vicinity would have another
line to Chicago as well as another t.
the twin cities. This ought to hell
transportation materially in this sec
ton of the state"

FEARLESS PATROLMAN
WINS DESPERATE FIGHT
overpowers Infuristed Mexican After
Hand-to-Hand Encounter-Pris-
oner Held for Disturbing
the r'eace

After desperate hand-to-hand encoun-
ter with Daniel Ortez, Mexican. last
night Patrolman A. w. Clifford, the officer
who recently arrested Coroner r. S. Ian
terman on a charge of drunkenness, sue
ceeded in overpowering the infuriated
man and placing him in the patrol wagon.
The fight occurred just outside of Ortez'
home at Buena Vista and New High
streets. Giffords attention was attracted
by the screams of fear uttered by women
living in the neighborhood. He rushed
to the scene to find Ortez loudly proclaim
ing he would kill anyone who interfered
with him.
Clifford wasted no time but rushed to
the aid of the women. AS he did so the
enraged Mexican sprang forward and for
several minutes the officer and his enemy
struggled with each other. Suddenly Gif-
ford's fist shot out and the Mexican
tumbled headlong to the pavement.
In a second Clifford had the handcuffs
on the man, but even then the prisoner
continued to fight and 1t was necessary
for the patrolman to drag him to the
wagon by main strength.
AT the station Ortez was booked on q
charge of disturbing the peace

BEAUMONT HOLDS PALM
FOR POTATO CROPS
An Average Of 1872 Bushels to the
Acre Yielded in That Vicinity.
Fruit Ranches Prove Profit
able to Owners
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
BEAUMONT, Dec. 19.-This vicinity
holds the palm for the average potato
yield this season, as shown by canvas
of ranchers just completed.
State returns of the tuber yield show
a total of 5,920,O00 bushels and total
acreage of 10000 acres. This gives an
average yield of 14S bushels to the acre.
Beaumont and vicinity shows an aver
age of 1872 bushels to the acre.
Several fruit orchards will be set in
the near future by recent purchasers OF
small ranches. Nearly all deciduous
fruits will be represented in the planting.
Among the most profitable fruits in the
vicinity this year were peaches, prunes,
pears, cherries. apples, olives and grapes.
A canvas of the apple growers disclosed
the fact that the orchards yielded from
$3.50 to $500 an acre this season. This was
with those who wholesaled their fruit
In one or two instances the crop was
marketed directly to. retail dealers and
to private consumers and brought much
larger returns.
Prof. D. c. Burson, who is studying
climate, soils and conditions in the pass,
has pronounced in favor of another
product for this soil. He says climatic
conditions and quality of soil here are
more nearly identical with those of the
Virginia peanut belt than any he has
seen in California and it Is his opinion
better quality of peanuts may be grown
here than on the lowlandS.
Also, in his opinion, the crop would
prove a profitable one, especially in view
of the fact that the nuts are scarce in
local markets and always bring fancy
prices.
