WEN A AGO
From File Of Tribune Of This
July %, 1895.

Paddy Byrne scored off 80 miles on
mis- wheel yesterday, starting out at
about 900 a. NJ, riding to Steele and
returning about 7 o'clock last even
ing Time for the 80 miles was be
tween eight and nine hours.
Two pages Of the daily paper in
type dropped from the elevator to the
first floor, a distance of 10 or II feet,
and resulted in a promiscuous and
altogether tumble of locals, editorials
and advertisements. A heavy edi-
torlal on finance was inextricably con-
fused with n of MI. Kenyon's just
ly celebrated railroad notices, and a
stray COW advertisement was wrap
ped several times about the weather
forecast.
One of the narrowest escapes was
that of James Mccormick, one of the
Tribune's composing room force, who
was standing beneath the elevator
when the form dropped, missing him
by a space Of but a few inches.
Summer appears to be upon us at
last and after many futile FITTINGS
has perhaps come to stay for a time.
Some grain has been cut already,

SAFE ICE CREAM,

With the advance of summer, there
is, naturally, a largely increased con.
sumption of iced products. Conspic,
uous among these is that ever delight.
full commodity, ice cream. Unfor.
tunately, however, there are as many
formulas for the preparation of this
delicious and highly edible substance
as there are manufacturers who make
it. A note in the current issue Of the
Bulletin of the North Dakota Agri-
cultural Experiment Station calls at
tention to a few Of the notifications
extant in this state:
"Ice creams in this state are sup.
posed to contain 1 per cent Of butteTa-
fat. This corresponds with the stand.
ard in a majority of other states.
There are those, however, who fur
nish a product containing from 6 to
10 per cent of butter-fat, using a
thickener, gelatin, gum, rennet, etc
for the purpose of giving the cream
the appearance of richness. This is
a fraud and works a hardship on the
a who is endeavoring to produce a
| good article. On the other hand.
there are those who do not take sufii.
cient interest to know what they are
doing or are not posted as to the fat
content which they use and SO are
giving to the public ice cream con.
tanning from IS to % per cent of but.
ter-fat. Such ice cream is too rich
and is not as satisfactory as that
containing approximately IA per cent.
If fruit is used, then the per cert
Of butter-fat is slightly reduced to u
per cent.
Pure ice cream should contain no
gelatin, but if gelatin is used, then
the product must be labeled, sold Dr
dispensed as gelatin ice cream.
A great deal is said about the ne.
cessity for gelatin. The writer has
not been able to follow all tle argu.
ments in favor of gelatin, but in a
number of instances is convinced that
the use of gelatin is for the purpose
Of selling more air at ice cream
prices. Ice cream is sold by the
measure and if you can work in
enough air so as to convert one gal
Ion of ice cream into two gallons,
there is a big profit, and that is n
of the reasons for using gelatin.
The question of the preparation of
a satisfactory ice cream, according to
The Journal of the American Medical
Association, involves the considera-
ton of numerous factors, including
not only the type of mills or cream
which forms the basis, but also the
use of thickeners and the various
methods Of preparation. The posi-
BILE entrance of numerous germs must
be considered. Physicians should in.
terest themselves, and make sure that
the material offered for their own
consumption, and for that Of their pa
tients, is in accord with the highest
standards set for such products,

Boy to Be a Soldier" and hundreds
of lesser long.haired opponents OF
Mars are organizing anti.enlistment
leagues.
President Lowell Of Harvard is
chairman Of the executive committee
of the League to Enforce Peace
The object Of this organization is to
declare a trade boycott on any ma
ton that begins a war.
Peace at some prices would be in.
tolerable humiliation and reduce tlis
nation to a race If poltroons. The
doctrine OF the peace advocates would
as Roosevelt well said, ~"Chinafy' the
United States.
The propaganda, which has millions
to spend, is based on foolish senti-
ment. 1t strikes at the very founda-
tons Of government.
The peace twaddle OF Bryan has
caused a complication now that might
have been avoided had not the Com,
moner poured into the ears Of the
Austrian ambassador that this nation
did not mean what it said, and that
it's bark vas muc.l worse than its bite
would be.
Advantages of a free government
impose certain responsibilities. The
existence Of some Of these obliga.
tions the pacifst refuses to recog
nize.
There are many extremes of peace
makers, ranging from the bomb
throwing Holt to such eminent advo
Gates as David Starr Jordan.
The methods of the various leagues
for peace are contradictory, imprac,
teal and visionary.
Armaments do not necessarily NEAR
war. Preparedness is the best weap-
on Of peace, but one which the paci.
fists almost unanimously reject. Here
is the vital defect in their entire pro,
gram. Few welcome a The paci-
fist enormously predicates his action
wholly on an assumed lust for con
f1ict.
Good intentions will not keep u:
out Of trouble. When harm threat
ems a mans family, he does not crawl
under the bed unless he is a coward
and a craven. 1t must be the same
with nations.
Treaties have failed in securing
peace. They are but scraps of paper
when the ambition of rulers and gov.
ernments Is aroused. Nations who
lean upon them are resting on broken
reeds. Belgium is a gruesome exam.
pie.
Peace, by all means, but as insur.
ance against war, a nation must be
prepared in all things. ...
Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1915-07-29

wind.
There are two very prominent varie-
ties Of punctures-those made in auto
mobile tires and those made in pompous
and puffed-up people. Both varieties
cause a great deal of grief but in the
latter case the grief is balanced by the
extreme delight to the spectator.
The puncture is the saddest spot in
the life of the automobilist. 1t brings
him to earth on a hot day while he is
careening blissfully through the scenery
and compels him to wrestle, catch-as-
catch-can with a large Indifferent tire
while the sweat run into his, eyes, and
his wife makes pointed remarks about
the heartlessness Of a husband who will
not push a car half a mile up hill into
the Shade while doing his tinkering.
Nothing is more dastardly than the
automobile tire puncture. 1t spares
neither the happy young lovers, nineteen
miles from home with a thunderstorm
corning up, nor the benevolent old lady
driving an electric car over the remains
Of a beer bottle with a misplaced con-
fdence in Providence. The automobile
tire has provided an occupation for the
wornout and discarded horseshoe, the
abandoned nail and the homeless tack.
1t has increased the output of pro-
family in the United States by II per
cent and has introduced many wierd
and entirely novel words into the Ian,
guage.
The other sort of puncture is much
more disastrous to the subject, however.
It is sad to see a fat and impressive
automobile tire, costing $3.50 turn to
a limp and Aabby mess when a small
nail is introduced into it. But it is not
as impressive as to watch a large and

WAR A YEAR OLD.

This week marks the END OF lne
first year of war. How many more
weeks OF years it will run none can
tell. One might as profitably engage
in a discussion as 10 ..he number of
angels that can stand On a needles
point.
1t is a war Of resources-men,
money and munitions.
After twelve months of bloody
struggle, distancing all wars, ancient
and modern, the British casualties are
nearly $50, 900; those Of France are
estimated at 1,75O. 900; Germany and
Austria, %4,75O,OO0, and Russia, 3,0O0,-
900. These figures include dead,
wounded and missing.
If the struggle is maintained at its
present pace, how can it last much
longer?
Even the British concede that it
will be impossible to isolate Ger
many and her allies. The war is
settling down more and more to a
stubborn struggle in which, so far,
Germany has had much the advantage
without, however, making any decis-
i've blow that brings turbulent Europe
any nearer peace.
With the war only we'll started, the
toll in killed, wounded and missing
aggregates 100000 men. The finan.
cial cost is nearly three billions for
the first twelve months and the ma
tions involved are straining every
nerve to replenish the sinews of war.
Germany, with the exception of her
foreign possessions and a small strip
Of Alsace-Lorraine, has lost no terri
tory. She occupies seven-eighths Of
Belgium, a large area of industrial
France, half Of Poland and a part of
the Russian Baltic provinces, not to
mention the virtual dominance she
is exercising over Turkey.
The Triple Entente finds itself re-
inforced by Italy, but can point to no
victories of consequence either in ac-
QUESTION of territory or triumphs on
the field of battle. Since the first
gun was fired, France and England
have been engaged in a desperate de-
fensive, weakened materially by I'M
favorable economic conditions.
Dark as the picture is from the
Allies standpoint, the Entente pow.
ers are buoyed considerably by their
contention that they checked Ger
many's plan Of a short and decisive
campaign. No one knows to a GER
tainty that the Teutons entered this
war with the idea that the successes
of 1871 would be duplicated and that
France would again be brought to her
knees. The magnitude of Germany's
preparations seems to indicate that
the imperial government was prepar-
ed for a long and stubborn conquest.
No mar can foretell the end. 1t is
foolish and idle to deal in proplesy.
