The results OF the wheat varie' tests
Tor 1925 at the Missouri Experiment

About fifty varieties were tested side

DRUGGISTS TO BE ARRESTED.
Foe Failure To Observe A New
law

According to the Joplin Globe all but
five Of tho seventy druggists 10 Jasper
County will he called upon 10 explain
why they have lied to comply with the
new state law requiring the filing OF
prescriptions with the courty c'erk.
The Globe says:
THE seventy druggists Of Jasper
county have failed to keep rs " ell post
cd in law NJ in pharmacy, which lie cot
strange, yet it may prove costly.
"Only 6v1 Of the entire number have
complied with the new law which re-
quires druggists to file monthly reports
Of all prescription business involving al
cohol, etc, With the county clerk, and
Prosecuting Attorney Andrews yester.
day issued Information against the rest
OF them. He states that complaint las
been tiled against all druggists 10 the
county except these five for failure to
comply with the new law, aud warrant
are to be issued.
This doubtless will create furore
among pharmacists throughout the
county, for il is doubtful IL the majority
OF them even realizpd that there was a
law seriously requiring them to report.
There Is. though, however, aud 1t be
came effective june Is. No report was
filed for July by the 80 percent or more
Of the druggists, and it is for this July
failure that wholesale arrests are
threatened now.
THE penalty prescribe for this sin
Of omission is $50 TO 500 fine. The re-
port Of prescriptions 10 which alcohol is
used should be filed the first Monday OF
each month for the precedin mouth.

Law for The fist month are located at

rubber hose which they carried concealed
in the legs of their trousers In the even

a large number from the two classes armed
themselves with barrel slaves. In n fierce
battle between the two factions four of
their numbers were knocked insensiblef and
