not know it. II the patient Is suffer-

This throws the bowels. which are
now normal, into a state Of disorder.
They then administer a physic for the
bowels. and thus disturb the stomach
They then prescribe for an irritated
stomach, and the crude Irritating
medicines only make a bad stomach
worse. There are more people suffer-
ing from crude drugs than from nat
ural diseases. The people are becom-
ing cautious ~ to pure foods. and
this is well; but they should learn to
exercise equal prudence as to medi-

EGGS IN NOODLES
TO Be REQUIRED
Under Pure Food Depart
ment Ruling, Old Fraud
is to be Banished

The pure food bulletin for May, just
issued by Prof. T.. F. Ladd, contains
an article on macaroni and noodles,
pointing out that many of the noodles
now on the market. supposed to con-
tain eggs, are really only colored with
coal tar dyes and that no eggs are
present. No wonder the article is not
more popular. Hereafter egg noodles
for North Dakota will have to contain
not less than two eggs for each pound
of flour.
1t is shown that there is growing
demand for durum to be used not only
for milling purposes but for the man.

dies, vermicelli, etc.
Another article deals with the color
of flour made from the various types
of wheat, and contains much interest
ing information for millers and 9TH

The question Of frauds in sausage
and how they manage to sell water at
Is cents per pound, forms an interest
Ing topic. When YOU can work off
from 20 to 80 pounds of Red river

age for Is cents or more per pound.
with little cereal thrown in, there
is no wonder that complaint is some
times made that the sausages are not
good eating.
Commissioner Ladd punctures an
other of the hog cholera cures in this
bulletin, several having been previous
ly exposed in other bulletins.
1t is also shown that the asafoetida
now purchased at the ,drugstores is
largely adulterated, and that very
many of the camphor liniments are
only from one-half to two-thirds
strength.
Bouillon cubes have come to be a
popular article in many places of late,
and it Is pointed out that these prep
arations are often far from what they
are represented to be. They contain
more plant extract than meat extract.

II would seem from this bulletin
that flax allowed to remain unthresh-

been claimed: In fact, the poorest
seed was the best and all showed up

shows to what extent the young are
