MOOSE OFFICERS HERE

e. NJ. Baker of Eugene, Ore, is in
the city as a deputy national director
of the Loyal Order of the Moose and
he expects to secure a large number of
members for the local lodge, which
holds it's meetings every Friday eve
ming in the A. o. u. W. hall, and which
now has a membership of $50 in good
standing. The Moose isn't an old
lodge, but it is one that has grown
rapidly since it was formed and Fargo
has a lodge that is growing all the
time, the meetings always being full
of interest. 1t is a beneficial fraternal
organization, in which business and
pleasure is mingled. At the present
time the boys are engaged in organic
ing a ~side-degree which is full of fun
and life and it Is likely that a large
class will be admitted at the next
meeting. At the last meeting of the
grand lodge $5,000,000 were set apart
for the organization and building of
sanitariums and schools for members
and their children. Another million
was set aside to secure a college in
which the children Of members who
desire can secure an education, and
this will embrace learning as to
books as well as to trades and profess
sions. There is every reason for be-
lieving that Mr.. Baker will find much
to do here.

LAWS FOR GROCERS
Weights and Measures and Pure Food
Statutes Have Been Amended, Par.

1t is noticed that different retail
associations over the state have start
ed campaigns. among members who
are more or less remiss, along the
line of improved sanitary conditions
in order to steer clear of Civic and
other clubs of a kindred nature. 1t
Is desired that all causes Of complaint
are removed.
The heads of state and other groc-
ers' organizations are urging that
men in the trade as soon as practical
BILE make a careful study Of the new
laws applying to retail dealers, for
instance those referring to weights
and measures and pure food regula-
lions. The latter mean that care
will have to be exercised in the sale
of oleomargarine particularly. The
new bill provides that 1t shall be So
per cent white. which means that in
stead of the butter color of the goods
now sold, it will be practically the
same color as lard.
In some cities an educative propa-
ganda has been started among the
grocers and provision dealers for the
purpose of Systematically studying the
new laws SO as to keep clear of the
rocks n avoid arrests by possibly,
over jealous officials who may be
turned loose at any time.
