Present information tends to show
that East Grand Forks will be the
principal city affected by the campaign

running a close second.

Malt Ii Dangerous.
Some of the malt placed on sale, 1t
is claimed. is manufactured one day
and oftentimes bottled the same day,
without giving the product an oppor-

claimed that the beverage foments

dangerous Many brewing companies
have taken up the sale of this product,
according to officials, and a big profit
results from the simple process of pro-
ducing.
Developments Expected.

touch with the campaign now being
WaEed and it is expected the grand
