OLEO LAW IS UPHELD.
Federal Supreme Court Holds That the
Use Of Coloring Matter Is
Forbidden.

Washington, D. c., Oct. 25.-The cleo
margarine law was sustained in a decision
announced by the United States supreme
court in the case of August Cliff of Chi
cago, who was convicted of violating that
portion of the law fixing Il tax of 10
cents Il pound on oleomargarine artificially
colored Cliffs defense was that palm Oil
was used in the compound, producing Il
natural and not an artificial celebration.
This contention was not sustained, the
court saying that one of the purposes Of
legislation was to prevent the sale of oleo-
margarine for butter, and that it must be
held that when any substance, although
named as possible ingredient of cleo
margarine, substantially serves only the
function Of coloring the mass so as to
cause the product to 'look like butter of
any shade of yellow" it is an artificial
cGioration.
This is the last of the oleomargarine
cases before the court.

a foot long.
Prof H. f. Summers, state entomolo-

sauerkraut snake harmless. But folks at
Mount AYR Kellerton and Truro, who
didn't think he knew, ate some of the
snakey kraut and triumphantly became

not often so large as a match and the
largest twelve inches.
