ton Since 1922 Traced to
Factory-Canned Stuff
ANTl1oxIN FOUND FOR IT
Remedy Must Be Taken Quickly
and Rarity Of Poisoning Is
Obstacle to Relief

With the canning season at hand,
the State Health department has is
sued a bulletin on the subject Of
botulinus poisoning, that rare form
Of poisoning from food which recent
ly caused the death Of four members
in the family Of Math thinner at
Sentinel Butte. Golden Valley county.
The bulletin warns housewives that
the chief sourc Of these cases is in
h~oYne-canned foods. No outbreaks
have been traced to factory-canned
foods since February, 1922.
It Is possible to ave botulinus VIC
Tins II an a~ntitoxin devised for this
form of poisoning can be readily OBJ
tanned. But the supplies are meagre,
due to the rarity Of the attacks, and,
in the case Of the Zimmers, no anti
toxin could be located anywhere in
time to get 1t to them and save their
lives.
Nature Of Poison
The health department bulletin on
the subject says:
Although the press has recently de-
tailed the outbreak of botuliSm in the
Math thinner family Of Golden VAL
ley county, North Dakota, and al
though this disease Is very rare, It is
30 serious when encountered that we
have thought it prudent to submit a
brief resume Of the causes and pre-
vention Of the disease inasmuch as 1t
Is all but 100 per cent p~reventable.
Botulism Is indirectly caused by the
botulism bacillus, or q germ which
grows In the absence of air, and which
produces what is known as a spore, or
q fungus, which detaches itself and
grows elsewhere. This spore produces
q toxin o. poisonous substance which
causes the disease known as botulism.
The poisoning usually follows the in
sestion Of the toxin itself, the disease
rarely resulting from the ingestion Of
either the germ or the spore. their
poisonous cycle rarely being carried
out in the intestinal tract.
The botulism bacillus and its spore
are wide spread throughout the world,
more frequently found In virgin and
pasture soils than in rich soil or
manure from animals. The spores
are frequently found in string bean
pods. moldy hay, ensilage. decayed
vegetation, canned vegetables. such
as spinach, string beans, corn, ETC.,
also in canned or potted meats. It is
also found in sausage, poorly pre-
served meats and even fish.
There have, however, been no cases
traced to commercially canned food
since February, 1922, yet during the
period from February. 1922, to No.
vember, 1924. there were rs outbreaks
attributed to home canned foods.
Foods preserved with q 6 per cent
solution Of salt and q IS per cent solu-
ton Of sugar are considered safe.

New England's Sewer

New England, N. D., July 25.-Nev
England's new $4,000 sewer system
is practically completed, and connec-

are being laid. E. r. Griffin, Man

that streets where the sewer was laid
have been left In good condition,
though some cave-ins may be expect
ed next spring because the sewer was
laid during the rainy season.
A special assessment committee
made up Of H. E. Schroeder, E. l.

Of the sewer, and make assessments

The wine was returned on a court order because 1t was proven that the beverage had been just working when 1t was seized by the police and could not be called wine at the time.
 On November 10, 1929, nine state policemen came to Southington and staged a raid on Mandino's place, seizing five barrels of wine totaling about 200 gallons and also a large quantity of bottled wine. The wine was placed Tn trucks and taken to Hartford to be stored away. In court Mandno put up q fight for his property, maintaining that he had just made the alleged wine and it was still working" Under this cir constance, according to the South lngton man, the beverage could not be classified as wine,
 In Hartford the liquid was tested and 1t was proven that Mandino had been right in his argument with the result that the trucks returned the beverage to him Saturday. At Man dlnos trial a small amount of all lesed liquor in a pint bottle was produced as evidence against him. He was found guilty and was fined $100 and costs.
