Baking powders in the state prior to Oct. 1, will not be interfered with after Jan. 1, 1914, providing that the new stocks coming into the statei are made in compliance with the require ments of the new state law. Such is the explanation made in the December bulletin of Profi E. F. Ladd, North Dakota pure food commissioner, regarding his recent ruling pertaining to baking powders. Considerable controversy over Dr. Ladd's ruling, especially after the Cal umet Baking Powder Co., replied to his ruling. Dr. Ladd states that this company misinterpreted his original statement and this month clarifies the impression, so that every baking powder concern doing business in this state and every merchant selling bak ing powders in this state will intelli gently grasp the meaning of the law in its correct interpretation. Dr. Ladd's. December bulletin also discusses hog cholera specific, the constitutionality of the anti-snuff law, Tyrce's antiseptic powder, soap bark and soft drinks, and the analysis of foods and beverages.

These states are: Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Flor ida, Kentucky, New Hampshire, New -Mexico, Utah, Vermont, Wyoming. Arkansas has Just passed a law re quiring a petition signed by all the adult white men and women in any community before a saloon can be opened, practically insuring state-wide prohibition. On the other hand, there Is not a single state that is entirely "wet." Kew Jersey comes nearest, with only four-tenths of 1 per cent of Its area rohibition. Three-quarters of Penn sylvania Is "license" territory. But Illinois and Missouri are each 72 per cont "dry" and 58 per cent of New York state' is prohibition territory. Eminent.

D. CITIES. Leonard Day, chief of tho Fire Alarm Telegraph bureau of New York city, and E. A. Faller, telegraph ex pert of the fire department, have de vised a fire alarm box which is ex pected to break the grip of the monop oly in Are alarm boxes to which New York and every other city in the United States pays tribute. The average price of a standard tire alarm box. for a number of .voars past, has been $125. The new box, which is said to have all the improvements of those now in use, and also has an automatic "trouble finder", will sell for a cost not to exceed $4fi. "It would be a great thing if fire alarm boxes could be secured at such a reduction In price," said Chief Suth erland of the Fargo Firo department today. "There are a number of cities in this state that would ibo greatly benefitted, some of w.hich now have no alarm system at all, because of the high cost of the boxes. These cities are forced to depend on the telephone, which at best is a very unsatisfactory system of reporting fires. "In this city we now have about thirty-one of the Gamewell fire alarm boxes. These boxes are all in good working order, though some of them have been in use for a long time. Even at 5125 a fire alarm box pays its cost in a short time, in fact, pays for itself with the first alarm turned in. "But with the cost of boxes cut to $45, the city would undoubtedly in stall many more boxes, for, with the rapid growth of the business section of the city, it has 'been found neces sary in some instances to move boxes from the residence section of the city to points closer In, In order to more effectively protect the congested por tion of the city. This leaves part of the residence lortion of the city de pendent on the telephone There is not a city in the United States that would not be enormously benefitted by the putting on the market of a box which would sell for this greatlv re duced price." The Inventors of this new box have dedicated it to the use of the city of New York, and have given their pat ent rights exclusively to that city. The other cities of the country are now wondering what action New York will take in the matter, whether or not they will hold the monopoly, or will give to all the nation the benefit of this great invention. So far, no decision has been announced. FARGO COLLEGE STUDENTS LIST ENED TO GERMAN CHRISTMAS MUSIC AND SELECTIONS FROM GERMAN FOLK LORE TALKS THIS MORNING.

Capt. J. Ibester and three of his men are dead. How they perished, news reaching here yesterday did not tell. First word of the loss of the Dalgo nar, which carried a crew of about thirty, reached. here on Dec. 10, when the French bark Marie anchored. Cap tain Morieet of the Marie sighted the Dalgonar 1,200 miles off the cqast of "Chile on Oct. 28, rolling her keel out of the water with her rigging cut and her sails gone and only the gaunt ship's black cat of all orthodox ro mance alive.
