PoIsoNs IN FOOLS.

There are poisons in spoiled food
which cannot be avoided, prevented or
corrected by legislation. In many in
stances the individual user or consum-
or and not the manufacturer or seller
Is responsible for their presence. The
emily way to reach this matter ia for a
warning to be given by the press of the
country.
While the pure food and drugs law
seeks to protect the consumer from
impure foods and drugs-the impurities
Of which the manufacturer, producer or
seller is responsible for--there are
dangers existing in foods, due to the
carelessness or ignorance of the con-
sunlers. No legal restraints can re-
move these--the only protection being
public educaticn-a general UNDER
standing of hygienic conditions,-as
brought about by the care exercised in
their use.
There are dangers in using foods that
AA1FI L@CA AAaPL0bCAAy pL6SSEVeQ--dnd
from canned goods that have been left
open for any considerable time. The
fact ID all canned goods should be used
as soon as opened--for it has been
scientifically demonstrated that such
articles Of food deteriorate when left
open. In many instances they become
poisonous.
Ia every household the most scrupu-
Ious care should be exercised in keep
Ing meat, fish, fowls and canned goods
In good hygienic conditions. No risk
should be run Ia eating such food---as
the formation Of ptomaines generally
accompanies putrefaction In the face
lie the fact that exacting pure food laws
have been put In operation there are
there are thousands OF cases OF ptom-
aine poisoning many Of which have
been fatal. This condition is not the
fault Of the pure food laws. but it il
attributable to the ignorance and care

or foods that are wholesome when fall
Ing into their hands.

NO COUNCIL TONIGHT


Although this is the first Monday OF
the month, the time scheduled for 8
regular council meeting, the city faith
ers will not gather in session this
evening. Many Of the aldermen ara
out Of the city, and combined with tbs
fact that there is circus in town, the
councilmen decided not to meet at the
regular time.
At the last meeting Of the council
1t was the sentiment of the aldermen
to hold their meeting one week from
this evening. There are a number OF
bids to be received on that date, some
for sewer work and others for the
sale Of bonds. The city dads have
been working overtime during the last
month, meeting more than once q
week, and they feel that nothing will
come amiss If they postpone the regu-
lar meeting night week, the council
having just met last Wednesday,
night.

FORKS, FINE PAVING.


Grand Forks has relaid its early paw
ing and gotten rid of the old cedar
block monstrosity first laid there. Like
Fargo, Grand Forks made a great mis-
take In ever putting down cedar blocks,
but--did not encore on its original
idiocy by relaying with cedar blocks
as Fargo did on part of Broadway and
on Eighth street south.
Grand Forks has experimental with
several kinds Of paving and on some
streets has two or three brands. All it's
paving is now in fine condition and re-
pair and 1t adds to the attractiveness
OF the city.
Fargo has some very fine paving in
both vitrified brick and cresote blocks
1t has some relaid cedar blocks--and
there are about thirty blocks in the
third and fourth wards, where the
original cedar blocks have rotted that
the streets are in a most disgraceful
condition.
Automobiling on First, Second
Third, Fourth and Fifth avenues south
and in the Island park district, is about
as pleasureable as over corduroy roads
The rotten blocks cannot be very sani-
tary.
If the city is to keep up with the
mace IL set--if there In 70 ha vrocro.a
instead OF retrogression---ttis splendid
residential district should be repaved-
and with something more stable than
cedar blocks.

MONDAY, JULY 3, 1911.
A PATRIOTIC DAY.

Tomorrow is the glorious Fourth
One hundred and thirty-fve years ago
a new nation was born. Most Ameri-
cans win readily admit it Is now the
greatest on earth.
There Ii a conscious pride in the fact
that the U. s. Is certainly some coun-
try. There are things that could be
improved. But the great majority Of
the features that go to make up the
United States government are safe and
sound to the core. It's a goodly land
to call homeland the Stars and Stripes
appeal to every loyal citizen.
Tomorrow there will be all kinds Of
celebrations. In Fargo the day will
be quiet. There will be general exo-
dus to the lakes-in fact many who
went down Saturday planned to remain
over till Wednesday morning. In other
towns there will be patriotic celebra-
tions. The cannons will boom-and
the orators will pluck feathers from the
eagles tail.
Patriotic hearts everywhere will
hold in revered memory the anniversary
Of the nations natal day. In a large
percentage of the celebrations 49, the
real object of the occasion will be for
gotten and the idea of sports will pre-
dominate.
The Forum hopes its readers will
celebrate the day as their inclinations
at the same time have {.
safe and sane time.

the rules OF common sense to proper
handling Of foods In the household
The only way to correct the common
errors-which often prove fatai--is for
up-to-date physicians and newspapers
to teach the lesson OF scrupulous care
in the handling and use of goods.
Since the enactment OF the federal
pure food law there have been in the
United States 2e,O76 cases OF ptomaine
poisoning--of which 1908 have been
fatal. This appalling state Of affairs
can be corrected only by training and
instructing those who have the care Of
food for the family.

The up-to-date folks warned him that
he must reform or die;
The microbes were just waiting fer to
send him on high.
But he remained the same old, reck-
less, germ-defying Bill,
And, strange to say, in spite of all, he's
hangin' round here still.
