RHEUMATISM RECIPE
Directions To Prepare Simple, Yet
Remarkable Home Mixture

Directions To Prepare Simple, Yet
Remarkable Home Mixture
A well-known authority on Rheu-
1natism gives the following valuable,
although simple and harmless, pre-
scription, which any one can easily
prescribe at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in a bottle, and
take teaspoonful after each meal and
at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can
be obtained from any good prescription
pharmacy at small cost, and, being of
vegetable extraction, are harmless to
take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken re-
gularly for a few days, is said to over
come almost any case of Rheumatism.
The pain and swelling, if any, dimin-
ishes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained, and without in
juring the stomach. While there are
many so:called rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines etc., some of which
do give relief, few really give perma-
nent results, and the above will, no
doubt, be greatly appreciated by many
sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of this
neighborhood elicits the information
that these drugs are harmless and can
be bought separately, or the:druggists
here will mix the prescription for our
readers if asked to.

Minnesota Canned Goods The
Best.

Best.
Minnesota is the only state in the
union that has special law regulating
canneries. 1t has been in operation
two years, and has been of great benefit
to this important industry, in addition
to insuring the consumers of Mime
sofa canned goods. These products have
been put up under the supervision Of
the state.
Certain sanitary conditions are re-
quired in each factory, and where the
goods are canned under the supervision
of an inspector of the state dairy and
food commission the product may be
labelled "Minnesota Standard, Inspect
ed and Approved. The cost of such
inspection is borne by the owner of the
canning factory aud large percentage
of the canned goods of the state is put
up under such inspection.
The state inspector reports that no
artificial preservatives, bleachers, colors
or filters of any kind are being used in
the goods packed in this state. Water,
cane sugar aud salt are the only ingred-
tents added to the rure fruit or vege-
tables. l quote from his report as
follows: "The quality of the goods
packed this season is better than before
and of uniformity not heretofore at
tained."
A good Idea of the extent of the can.
ming industry in this state may be
gained from study of the figures
compiled by the inspector. 2,824,390
cans of corn, 1880 cans of peas, and
$50, 76O cans of beans we're packed this
season; in all 4,408,190 cans OF vege.
tables and fruit we're packed in 1908.
With better appreciation on the
part of the consuming public of the
purity of the products canned in the
state will come greater demand for
| them. This industry is destined to
become one of the great business
enterprises of our agricultural di-
| stricts.
