Comparative
Digestibility
of Food
Made Willi diilcrenl Baking Powders
From a Series of Elaborate Chemical Tests:
An equal quantity of bread (biscuit) was made
with each of three different kinds of baAing powder
cream of tartar, phosphate, and alum and submitted
separately to the action of the digestive fluid, each
for the same length of time.
The relative percentage of the food digested is
shown as follows:
Bread made with
Royal Cream of Tartar Powder;
flOO Per Cent Digested
Bread made with
phosphate powder:
feS1 Per Cent Digested
Bread made with
alum powder:
67 Per Cent Digested 1
These tests, which are absolutely reliable and
unprejudiced, make plain a fact of great importance
to everyone : Food raised with Royal, a cream of
tartar Baking Powder, is shown to be; entirely diges
tible, while the alum and phosphate powders are found
to largely retard the digestion of the food made from
them.
Undigested food is not only wasted food, but it
is the source of very many bodily ailments.

The work at th government
ritle range is being pushed along'
in excellent shape by the contract
ing tirm of McLaughlin & Sons of
lied Oak, Iowa, who have Hie" con
tract for the construction of the
permanent concrete butts for Ihe
target practice, as well as the tar
get house and range house. The
contracting llrni are clearing away
a great deal of the underbrush
that is on the south part of the
range on Ihe east side of the track
and putting it in shape for the
placing of the butts, which will be
put up as soon as the ground can
be put in condition. The butts will
be placed at 1,000, 800, COO, '.00
and 200 yards, and arranged in
such a manner that all the targets
can be used at the same time with
perfect safety and will make the
range much more practical for the
use of the soldiers.
The range house or office is
being erected on the government
land west of the track and will be
used by the commander of the
post, as well as the commissary
department. The improvements
outlined for Ihe range in the
future will by ipiite extensive, as
part will be done each year to put
Ihe range in as line condition as
any in the west, and il will only be
a question of lime until the camp
ground is nicely parked and laid
out wilh walks, making it a place
of great beauty, and as it is
situated on one of the large hills,
it will make a very handsome ap
pearance and be the niecca for
visitors in the summer season.
From the camp grounds a line
view can be had of the rifle range
and the soldiers at their practice
shooting.
The work of. making these im
provements will take up several
mouths before they are completed
and ready to turn over to the gov
ernment ollicer-s who are super
vising the work, and we want to
stale here that Mr. Blair, who is
at present in charge, is a very
polite and genial gentleman and
he is very courteous to the visit
ors at the range, as was the olllc
ers in charge of the range last
year. r
There is a matter that should
be taken up by the Coinercial club
and the citizens here, and that is
the securing of Ihe slate militia
encampment and target practice
this year, and the proper rep
resentations should be made to
(leneral Hall fo bring Ihe militia
to this city for practice, ay about
the llrst of August, and have them
camp at Ihe range for the work of
target shooting. This city has
splendid railroad connections and
are in touch with the outside
world at almost any hour of the
day, and the range is located in
isy walking distance of the city
and possesses all the require
ments for an ideal gathering place
for the citizen soldiers. The
soldiers from Fort Crook are in
Texas at present, and from all in
dications they will remain there
all summer and the slate militia
could have full use of the splen
did range. Let us get busy and
see what can be done about the
matter.

The condition of Mrs. Henry

critical A this morning that all

ago she suffered a paralytic stroke
which left her in an almost help
less condition, and she gradually
grew worse. Her daughter, Mrs.
Vallery, of St. Joseph, Missouri,
arrived yesterday to be at her
mother's beside, and another
daughter, Mrs. Johnson, came this
morning from Denver. The ar
rival of Hie children caused a
slight rally on Ihe part of the
mother, but she at once grew
sleadily worse, and this morning
lapsed into a stale of uncon

end in the death of this worthy
