BAKING POWDER,
STARCH AND Dye
Substitute For Eggs Exposed by
State Food Department

The following bulletin has been is
sued by the dairy and food depart
ment:
In the Detroit and Grand Rapids
papers for the last few weeks have
al peared various reading advertise
ments relative TO an article which is
called Cooks Concentrated Substitute
for Eggs" The following advertise
ment taken from Detroit paper is a
fair SAMPLE of such advertisement:
The American housewife win he de-
lighted TO know that she need never
for eggs for baking The famous for
mula for Cooks Concentrated Substi-
tute for Eggs has been brought from
England, by an American company
and placed upon the market here. The
grocer is now ready To- supply the
housewife. This preparation is guar
anteed under the Food and Drugs Act,
extremely wholesome and full of egg
value. II is used in every home i'm
England ana American women are
quickly adopting it here. A lie pack
age of Cooks Concentrated Substitute
for Eggs is equal to 10 eggs"
The advertisement further states
that this wonderful preparation new
er spoils from the action of heat and
cold" Another reading advertisement
makes this statement, AN English
scientist has invented wonderful
substitute for eggs. which is whole
some and takes the place Of eggs i'm
all form of baking, even going as far
as to eliminate the necessity Of bak-
ing powder and still another adver-
tisement states that it does every
thing in the baking line that eggs will
do"
The first advertisement we quote is
form of vicious deceptive advertis-
ing that is being practiced generally
at this time by food fakes. Note the
sentence this preparation is guaran-
teed under the Food ana Drugs Act,
extremely wholesome and fun Of egg
value" The average reader not notic-
ing the small comma thinks that the
United States government through its
pure food department has guaranteed
Cooks Substitute for Eggs to be full
of egg value" of course. as a matter
of fact. the United States Pure Food
Department does not guarantee any
food. 1t issues a Serial Number on
foods. but does not guarantee any of
them The manufacturer has to do
that.
What is this wonderful substitute
FOR eggs? 1t excited the curiosity Of
this department and box was bought
on the open market and an analysts
made. Cooks Substitute for Eggs
consisted approximately of baking
powder 81 per cent, starch is per cent
and about l per cent of yellow analno
dye which we presume contains q
great amount of the Egg value in the
compound. In other words, Cooks
Substitute for Eggs is merely COM
mon baking powder with a little starch
added and colored yellow with analine
dye. A significant stateE,ent appears
on the box i'm which ii is contained Ii
says that lit is not necessary To use
| baking Powder with Cooks Substitute
| for Eggs" This is really "A truthful
statement. II is no more necessary
| TO use baking powder with Cook
! Substitute for Eggs than it would be
to paint the lily or sild refined gold.

Forest Protection.

Forest Protection.
Whereas, the forests of merchant
able timber in this peninsula constt-
tute one OF the chief resources upon
which our new settlers must depend
for an income or for labor upon which
10 sustain themselves while clearing
and opening new lands for farms, as
well as for the entire state as a re-
source for supplies of lumber and
other forest productions; and
Whereas. In the past great areas Of
our timbered lands have been burned
over and the timber thereby largely
or wholly lost; and
Whereas, the legislature of this
state has heretofore recognized the
great necessity for active work for
the protection OF these forests from
such damage and loss by the creation
of a state department for that purpose
in connection with the protection Of
game and fish, which has proved to
be insufficient and ineffective because
Of the small appropriation for the pro-
tectiVe branch;
Resolved That il is the unqualified
judgment Of this association that the
importance of the protection of our
forests from fire demands that the
state undertake this work upon scale
commensurate with its Importance
with an appropriation of funds suiii-
cient for the maintenance during the
fire season of a force adequate for the
purpose. and that our senator's and
representatives he requested To intro
duce and urge the passage Of an ad-
equate measure to that end.
The Drainage Law.
Whereas, il appears to the Upper
Peninsula Development bureau that in
the development of our agricultural
resources the subject Of drainage is
of vast Importance;
And 1t appearing that the present
drain laws of this state are made
quate, cumbersome and expensive to
operate under in the construction Of
drains;
And this bureau having given due
consideration to "a bill for the revis-
ion of the drain laws Of this state as
prepared unOer the direction OF tne
board of supervisors Of the county Of
Menominee. and now known as House
Bill No. III, and being satisfied that
the enactment of said bill into law
will greatly facilitate proceedings for
the construction Of drains within the
state, and therefore be source Of
promoting agricultural development;
Therefore BE il Resolved. that this
bureau, in annual meeting, hereby en-.
dorses said bill, and favors the pas
sage thereof by the legislature of this
state at its present session; and
Resolved, That this resolution be
certified to each, the senate and house
of representatives by the secretary Of
this bureau. in support of a petition
to be by him signed i'm the name of
the bureau, for the passage of said
bill; and ms
Resolved, That each senator and
representative from the upper PENN
sula be presented with a copy OF these
resolutions and especially requested to
use every reasonable effort To. secure
the passage of said bill. BOG

AS the kidnapped child of Mr.. and
Mrs. &. P. Dunbar, of Opelousas, La. !,
has been the chief topic of interest in
both Louisiana and Mississippi for sew
eral weeks past, the following letter
received by prominent Lexington

that the child In question was really

This Dunbar case is indeed mys-

She claims, that she would not say
he was hers, when she first saw him,
because her husband had warned her
that the people would lynch the kid

hard to believe.
For my part, | see no resemblance

cept in badness. The features of this
child are absolutely different TO what |

the mother since she was a child, we
rarely visited. She came to my house
with her boy just one week before he

child, he also is outrageous. Apart
from that, | see nothing in common
