loaded down with merchandise, and

The ladies have been working like
beavers, and the Efks will not miss an
opportunity to show them the gratitude
they feel for their kind help.

was the biggest of the week. Every

the patrons, some of them getting just
what they wanted. while others won
things for which they had no immedi-
ate use at least.

WELL
PROVING GOOD
NEW MUNICIPAL WELL is SAID
TO HAVE FINE WATER AND
IT'S CAPACITY MUCH LARGER
THAN 1T FIRST GAVE PROMISE
OF BEING.

City Engineer Anders is much pleas
ed with the new city artesian well, and
it is thought by the water experts in
the city who have given it any ex-
animation to be one of the best and
wisest moves of the present adminis-
tration. The well itself is found to
be far exceeding expectations in all
particulars. The capacity, while yet
not definitely estimated, Is found to
be greater than the first flow first gave
promise of its being.
All the pumping at the well is not
through, which in itself is proof of
its tremendous capacity Mr.. Anders
expects to have the testing process
begun as soon as possible, that the
exact analysis may be published in the
newspapers for the observation of the
entire public. Professor Ladd, who
will probably conduct the laboratory
test. only returned home yesterday,
so that the analytical work will likely
not commence until later in the week
The water in the well gives every in
dication of being about the purest that
has been found in the Red river val
leya
The city engineers department is
busy just now with the preparation of
many estimates for water mains and
sewers for presentation at the next
adjourned session of the city council
next Monday night. The estimates on
the detention hospital bonds also will
be given out at that time.

PROF. LADD BACK
FROM N. ORLEANS
NORTH DAKOTA PURE FOOD CON-
MISSIONER HOME FROM At
TENDING MEETING or PURE
FOOD ADVOCATES or UNITED
STATES AT NEW ORLEANS.

Prof. E, f. Ladd of the agricultural
college has just returned home from
New Orleans where he has been at
tending the annual meeting Of the
pure food commissioners Of the var
ious states The meeting was a very
successful one and was the largest at
tended in the history Of the organiza-
ton.
One of the chief interests to come
before the pure food advocates was
the question of proper labelling of
foods. Dairy products and oIeomar-
gerine was one OF the problems dis
cussed and the delegates strongly adj
vocated more uniform system of
standard pure food laws.
Probably the most interesting thing
about the entire convention was a
visit of the entire number of delegates
to sugar plantation and factory. A
special train carrying the delegates
was run out thirty miles to one OF the
largest sugar plantations In Louisiana.
Here the visitors saw the cultivation
of the sugar cane in the field. Then
they were taken to a large factory
where the cane was moulded into q
nnlShed product and the entire pro-
cess Of field to product was q most
interesting one.
The guests of the crescent city were
entertained by the New Orleans board
Of health and the southern hospitality
was everywhere In evidence to make
the visitors have good time. Al
smoker and big banquet occupied
two of the evenings OF the conven-
ton.
Almost all the food commissioners
in the United States were on the pro-
gramme and the North Dakota rep
resentative gave an address on the
Labelling Of Pure Food Products. AIT
the time Professor Ladd left the con
vention the place OF the next meet
ing had not been decided upon, but
Duluth or Omaha were strong bid
ders for the next meeting place,
