RETURNS TO PATAGONIA.
sity, to Continue Search for
" Rare Fossils.

Prof. John Bell Hatcher, of Prince
ton, has gone back to Patagonia to con-
:inue his search for rare fossils and ex-
plore the interior of the country. He
expects to be absent three years. Two
years ago he entered the country, but
ill-health forced his return to Prince
ton this fall. A months rest was ali he
would take.
Prof. Hatcher's trips are made with
only two Indians as guides. Every trip
up the country means voluntary exile
from the world for six months. He lives
and works with his old guides, never
seeing a white man from the time he
leaves the coast until his return. He
was the first man to introduce an Amer
lean wagon into Patagonia, carrying
the parts south and building the wagon
himself. On his last trip he got to-
gether a valuable collection of the
fauna and flora of the country, as we'll
as collection of fossils. He also dis
covered lake, which he named Prince
ton, after the university.
The fossils of Patagonia resemble the
specimens found in our western coun-
try. There are varieties of the old
three-toed horse and also remarka bic
animal which was the ancestor of the
modern ant-eater.
In dry weather Prof. Hatcher will
work on the sea coast, where the re-
markable rise and fall of the tides un-
earth the bones IN the cliffs along the
shore.
Prof. Hatcher is graduate of Yale.
He had already won name for himself
as western scientific explorer before
he opened up the new field in Pata-
oOnia.

COunterfeit Food Products.

An imitation is counterfeit. and
counterfeit is fraud per Sc, and should
have no rights before the law as against
an honest product of the farm. No mat
ter how many hired chemists assert to
the contrary, counterfeit food products
are menace to the health of the public
and the prosperity Of the farm and the
nation. In every state there'is needed
a dairy and food commission to act as

laws against food, drug and drink

is the enforced law. This body can, and

The weather conditions were favora-

the crop Is now in fit condition to be cut
and shocked. Late corn needs more
rain for Its normal development, and re-
ports indicate that in many localities it

is also needed to facilitate fall blowing,

When Mre Graesser went, to Hastings
his first proceeding was to identity the
woman by such articles Of clothing as
were left. the hand satchel and the few
toilet articles it contained and this he
did satisfactorily to himself and salts
fed the authorities that he was right
fully interesting himself in the case.
He obtained permit to disinter the re-

little talk and sensation as possible.
The casket was opened in order that
additional and perhaps conclusive proof
of the identity Of the deceased might be
had. The remains had been embalmed
and Mr.. Graesser's identification was
complete and conclusive. Then the
body was shipped to the old home for
interment beside the father in the fam
