new LAW SAVES MONEY
THAT ON OIEO IMPORTATIONS~ HAS
NETTED STATE $4,000.

Dairy and Food Commissioner McCon-
nell now has in process Of preparation a
pamphlet of the dairy and food laws OF
the state. Many applications for the laws
are coming in to the department every
day, and these will be answered shortly.
Commissioner Mcconnell stated yesGer-
day that OF all the laws passed by the
last legislature relative to his depart
ment the oleo law has proved to be of
the most benefit to date Already it has
saved the state in the neighborhood of
$40, 900, and it is expected that over $780,
coo will be saved before the close of the
year. This can more readily be appreclat-
ed when it is known that upwards of
900 pounds of oleo wero shipped into
the state last year According to the new
law. colored oleo cannot be sold in the
state. Uncolored cleo can be sold if prop
cry labeled.
The preliminary educational butter con-
test was a success in every respect The
next contest will take place May 81 At
managers for the Pan-American exposi-
ton, the state dairy and food depart
ment Is cooperating to secure the best
possible exhibit of butter at Buffalo.
There will have to be shipments in June,
July. August, September and possibly
October. By working in harmony With
the monthly exhibit good work can be
accomplished. For the next shipment the
following plan is proposed: Pack TWEEN
ty-pound tub for the Minnesota educa-
tional contest, and, if it is wished to eX-
hibit at Buffalo pack siXty-pound tub
from the same churning, and ship both
to St. Paul by refrigerator car to arrive
not later than May 81.

CAUGHT TOO MANY FISH
EXECUTIVE AGENT FULLERTON
WOULD PUNISH OIL INSPECTOR
SCHIEENE ANN

Executive Agent Fullerton, of the state
game and fish commission has notified
the sheriff of st. Louis county to swear
out a warrant for the arrest of Fred
c. Schiffmann state oil inspector, and
F. c. Barrows, his deputy:
1t is highly probable that hereafter
Mr.. Schiffmann will forswear telling fish
stories, as the action Of the executive
agent has been taken because Of alleged
boasting done in the capitol building by
the culprit and his assistant The story
is to the effect that both men have been
telling that they caught $50 trout in one
day on the north shore of Lake Superior.
It is against the law for one man to
catch more than fifty fish in Minnesota
waters in one day.
