PROCLAMATION.

Acting together with the Board Of
Health and other Civic Associations,
I, Mayor, City of Willmar, hereby de-
clare and esignate, the two weeks
from April II to April 20 as "Clean
Up Weeks"
During these two weeks every citi-
zen of Willmar should make an effort
to clean up his property so as to avoid
fire risk, clean up front and back
yard, to paint his premises il neces-
Fsary, to repair and straightea mp
wood fences dividing property lines
and to whitewash same, to abolish all
places that breed flies and mosquitoes,
to eliminate dandelions and weeds
and to help clean up vacant lots.
Citizens should not place rubbish
on boulevards and streets but should
have same -carted away to the Public
Dumping Grounds.
This is an opportunity for every
citizen, not only to show his personal
pride, but also his civic pride.
Willmar is known as the City Of
Homes, Schools and Churches, and
we should all endeavor to make it
such.
No city is attractive If it is dirty
operate in cleaning up, not only our
own premises, but also help in places
where it is needed.
Let us all work together to clean
up the city during the next two weeks
and then keep it that way through:
out the entire year and for many
years to come. Let us plant trees
and flowers. Let us make Willmar
not only clean but beautiful. The re-
suit will be a cleaner, healthier, hap
pier and more attractive city.

CHAPTER 101.
The attitude of a number of food Of
fcials toward many forms of food
adulteration, interference with
which means fight with powerful
commercial interests, is indicated by
the peculiar paradox furnished by
the State of New Jersey in official
liberation of the use of sodium sui
phftc i'll the preparation of meat
products.
Inspired by the disclosures that the
butchers of RI. n. j., were en-
ploying anhydrous sodium sulphite in
the preparation of their meat pro-
ducts, / was invested with authority
by the health commissioner of N,
n. j.; the mayor of j. and the
health commissioner of H to
make survey of the situation in
these cities
In nearly every shop examined the
sulphites were found. 1t was indeed
evident that the entire State was the
victim of chemically treated meat and
meat products
Circular III of the Board of Health
of the State of New Jersey, issued
October, 1911, at Trenton, over the
signature of every official of the State
Board of Health, the director of the
State laboratory of hygiene and chief
OF the division of food and drugs, the
assistant chief, analyst and assistant
analyst of the same division, states
the ,aw on this subject as follows
IF any food contain any added
poisonous or other added deleterious
ingredient which may render such ar
ticle injurious to health it shall be
deemed to be adulterated. provided
that when in the preparation of food
products that are preserved by any
external application, applied in such
manner that the preserVative is nee
essarlly removed, mechanically or by
maceration in water or otherwise. and
directions Tor the removal of said pre-
serVatlVe shall be printed on the pack
age, the provisions of this act shall be
construed as applying only when said
products are ready for consumption. -
OF course. the butchers who en-
ployed anhydrous sodium sulphite to
brighten their meat products did not
label those products showing the
housewife how TO remove the pre-
SerVatiVe mechanically or by ma
ceratloh in water, for the simple rea-
son that no housewife in the world
IS able to remove the preservative in
any such manner
The state Board of Health, however,
vided:
That all food products manufac-
lured in the State of New Jersey in
which preservatives are used, which
preservatives are not now specifically
prohibited by the Department of Agrf-
culture of the United States, shall be
exempt from the provisions of this
act; provided the use of such pre-
servatives is stated upon the label or
in branding said products"
II the authorities had really been
desirous of putting an end TO the
anhydrous sodium sulphite abuse
these provisions would have enabled
them to act
When, however. it became evident
that the butchers of the entire State
were using the drug it also became
necessary to appease the wrath of the
puohc by issuing an official state

REAL SEASHORE FOODS SERVED
HERE AS AT SEASHORE RE


Everyone who has ever visited the
seashore comes back with tales of the
wonderfully prepared sea foods. All
manner of fish and crustaceans served
in every conceivable way have tlckled
the palates OF local folks while on
their summer jaunts. But. to enjoy
these palatable dishes does not require
a trip TO the seashore. The Man
haitian Restaurant, located right in the
heart of Harrisburg, has, for some
time past been serving these same sea
loods. Just as tastefully, just as
wholesomely, just as palatably as any
sea side resort. This is because they
have chef who is accustomed to pre-
parlng sea foods as they should be
prepared and because each day, live
sea food arrives direct from the nets
OF deep sea fishermen. The manner
or serving foods at The Manhattan is
Just as attractive as the foods them
selves. Tables are covered with spot
less white linen, napkins are of snowy
Whlte, the walters, also clad in white
linen hurry to and fro with huge trays
generously hlled with appetizing foods.
Ihe tables are completely outlaid
with sparkling glassware and shining
SILVER. The service leaves little to be
desired by the epicure and the lover of
good things to eat. Each day at noon
there gathers here, professional and
businessmen and women, downtown
shoppers and city visitors to enjoy to
the fullest extent the tasty foods set
before them. Next time you're down
town on shopping tour, instead of
hufrylng home to prepare a hasty
luncheon, then back again to finish
your shopping, just visit these daintily
arranged dining rooms and learn at
hrst hand, the joys of a real shore
dinner without the expense of a trip
to the coast.-Advt

THE PLACE TO HAVE YOUR
NICKEL-PLATING DONE

Have you noticed the beautifully
nickeled shrapnel shells on display in
so many Harrisburg homes and busi-
ness places? This nickel plating was
done by the Nuss Manufacturing Com
pany, Eleventh and Mulberry streets.
If you were fortunate enough to get
one of these mighty reminders of
the gigantic conflict across the seas
you'll undoubtedly want to keep it as
a relic-as an heirloom. There is but
one way to keep it in good condition.
That is, have it nickel plated. so that
moisture and the rust of years cannot
render it merely a huge. unsightly
piece of steel. The longer you keep it
the more valuable it becomes. Then
why not protect it fro mthe depre-
ciating influences Of rust and keep it
always new and bright and beautiful?
The charge is nominal-in fact, it is
low for this class of work. Our work
is not limited to this class of plating
entirely. We are called upon daily to
replate old jewelry, silverware, etc, to
polish and retinish metal goods of all
descriptions.
Consult US. Perhaps we can reclaim
that metal hcarloom that you thought
beyond repair.-AdV.

with me in order to make the time
pass In a more sociable manner"
These lakes are full of bass, pick
eral and perch and the fishing is al
ways excellent. When trout and
MS party motor up to the Rangeleys
ana other lakes of northern Maine.
He is familiar with all of them and
Knows exactly where to go for any
KIND OF fish. Belgrade lake is one of
MS favorite places, and quite often
ne takes run to fish in those
waters.
The Governor has no great love for
motor boats, as he loves to row for
the excellent exercise it gives him.
Rarely does he go out without
bringing back his full quota of fish.
Although Governor Brumbaugh is
mere for rest and recreation, he still
has keen interest in the political
situation, and was very free to express
himself to the Journal. In speaking
of this he said:
Mr.. Hughes is we'll nigh certain
of an election. PENNSYLVANIA will
give him an enormous majority, and
this is but the general trend Of the
North and West. The people are
tired of having this country made a
door mat for any foreign country,
and they are bound to end that sort
of business. l have found your
Maine people very enthusiastic and
feeling the same way that 1 do. 1
spoke at the Bangor convention and
was much impressed with all l saw
and heard.
The manner in which your pro-
hibitory laws are enforced in Maine
is a great surprise to me- For ex-
ample, w. +. Berry of the Civic
League, told me that Lewiston alone
has 112 open rumshops, to say moth
ing of scores of still lower dens
where liquor can be obtained. This
understand what the good people of
Androscoggin county can be think
ing about to permit such q condition
of affairs.
This seems almost incredible. 1t
could not be possible if men would
vote as they pray. They do not seem
to realize the stigma that they are
If your men would only throw aside
all partisan feeling on election day
the State would be redeemed.
In Pennsylvania we have high
license and are now working for
local option as a step in advance.
Practically we have prohibition in
several counties already as in those
counties there are lay judges and
these refuse to grant a license to
rumsellers. These lay judges are
men who are not learned in the law
but act as counsellors to the regu
lar judges and also vote on the
question of licenses. There are eleven
counties in the State that are now
under practical prohibition from
this cause.
License is of no value in con-
trolling the saloons. 1 am in favor
of IL national prohibitory law and
until we get this the trouble will
always be with US. National prohi-
bition can alone settle this question,
and this is soon coming. Reforms are
like revolutions. They never go
backward. Already we have eighteen
or nineteen states that have voted
dry. One more pull and we shall
have a majority so large that ma
tional prohibition will come easily.
Then we'll see all the politicians
tumbling over each other to get into
the band wagon and growing red in
the face shouting that they were al
ways in favor of prohibitioni In my
judgment this condition will come
within the next ten years.
