The latest story told on the
worth Of a monograph is how a
farmer near FennimOre used to Ell
courage his hens to lay. 1t seems
they had taken to laying off instead
of laying eggs. His neighOors'
hens were keeping up a constant
cackle, so taking a blank record he
went over and got a copy of their
hilarity. Returning he began re-
peating to his own chickens. In
less than ten minutes every nest
was full while several other hens
stood around anXiously waiting a
chance.
1t is reported that the Wiscon-
sin state dairy and food commission
will not rest on the OleOmargarine
decision of Circuit Judge George
CIementson at Lancaster, but will
bring prosecutions in other circuits
of the state and seek to maintain
the Interpretation Commissioner
Emery makes of the law, which
Interpretation does not agree with
that made by the circuit court.
Commissioner Emery believes that
it is unlawful in Wisconsin to sell
any oleomargarine, however pure
it may be, if by reason of natural
shade of ingredients or other means
the product is given a color that
makes it possible to be mistaken for
yellow butter.
