standard of butter, and if John Doe
does not make as good butter as
John Smith, it will soon be found
out, and Mr.. Doe will have to 60
out of business as a butter maker.
No butter maker should be ashamed
to brand his butter. If he will stop
to think he cannot help but see that
a nice, cleancut, attractive brand
will help to sell his butter, just the
same as nice, fancy brand helps
to sell other goods.
The aim of the law is to raise the
standard of dairy products and
give the producer chance to pro-
tect his products against an in
ferior class of goods.
Yours most respectfully,
A F. HIT,
State Dairy, Pure Food and Oil
Commissioner

f. A. Swayne, agency clerk at
the Duck Valley Reservation, ar
rived Wednesday on his wheel.
He made Little Valley, 70 miles

His wife, who has been visiting

when they left for Portland on
their annual vacation.
Mr.. Swayne states that con-
ditions at the reservation are very
encouraging The Indians are
busy cutting hay, the frequent
spring rains producing an excel

The Duck Valley Irrigation
ditch has just been completed, at
coat to the Government of about
$4,000. This ditch opens up a
large tract of productive land,
which will be taken up by the
Indians as soon AS it can be plat.
ted. They are quite industrious,
and. with this addition of we'll
irrigated land, and the start in
cattle and horses they already
have, will be almost self-support-
ing.
Much credit is due Agency Su-
perintendent H. H. Miller and
Superintendent of Construction j..
T. Holbert for the prompt and ef-
ficient manner in which this work
was completed. Mr.. Holbert left
f,r the Navajoe reservation July L.

producing at the agency one of the
finest lawns in the country.

FULL WEIGHT REQUIRED
Due Allowance for Shrinkage Must Be
Made When Packed.

The State Board of Dairy, Food
and Oil Commission, at the meet
ing held on July 1, 1905, ruled
that butter must be full weight
when sold TO the consumer; 80 it
will be necessary to make due
allowance for shrinkage.
This is new law, and farmers
especially may not be familiar
with it; therefore, | am going to
give a good length of time for
everyone to get his butter wrappers
printed, or get his own stamp for
printing the same; but l earnestly
urge all butter makers to fall into
line as soon as possible and COM
ply with the law.

These mute evidences of a people

COAL TAR TABOOED
CoIoring rtatier of This Class Must Not Be
Used In Buffer.

| wish to state that the use of
coal-tar dye coloring material in
butter is prohibited by law.
The law does not state as to the
kind of brand that shall be used
but we shall insist upon brand of
good sized type; and the ink used
shall be of quality that will not
"run" nor go through the wrapper
into the butter and damage the
quality of the same.
