restrictions Will now become a state law.
The bill provides that no person shall

sive other than black gunpowder and not

ceeding 400 or imprisonment not exceeding

Last year In this city the discharge Of

be enforced on the Fourth of July or at
any other time as the discharge Of fire.

conscious by two thugs while on his way
home late Saturday night. Turnbloom
missed the last car north on Main street
and started to walk. As he passed the large
implement house formerly occupied by the
observation-disclosures company two men
stepped from the north side and one Of
them struck Turnbloom back Of the head
with a sandbag. Turnbloom was knocked
to the ground and rendered insensible.
When he regaired consciousness about fif-
teen minutes later he found that the thugs
had broken of his watch chain. but had
failed to secure his watch. He supposes
the men were frightened away before they
had time 10 rob him He had consider
able sum of money in pocket on the in
side of his vest. but his assailants failed
to get it, Turnbloom is not certain
whether the men intended robbing him or
whether they had some grievance against
him and intended merely assaulting him.

Hts CentraIi,inr Plants.

The agricultural committee of the senate
has recommended for passage a bill pro-
hibiting the purchase Of impure or adul-
terated milk or cream for purposes of
manufacture into articles of food for hu-
mans. IL also prohibits the manufacture OF
such milk and cream into food and fixes
a penalty for the violation OF the law.
While it's face the bill Is innocent
enough, II Is in fact an attempt to curb
the power and growth of the big central
izing creamery plants 1t is the claim
that these plants in order to drive out COM
petition OF the local creameries purchase
milk and cream several days old OF patrons
and no matter what it's condition pay full
ma Ket price OF above. The local creamery
Is unable to handle such stun and make
good butter OF it and cannot afford TO buy
it and throw 1t away and so is unable to
meet the competition. 1t is charged that
the centralizing plants take the cream
after it is fermented and unfit for use and
| manufacture it into butter By various
processes. 1t is to prevent the manufacture
| Of this cream into butter that the bill has
been brought forward.

possibly for longer period, depend
ing upon weather conditions, the
movement, and the size of the foreign
demand. There has been more corn
sold in the last few days than has been
received, and when all the corn that

loaded, In addition to the rail shipment

which are 7,782,000 bushels in all. No

with the farm work already delayed

amount of work in the fields neces-
sary for the next sixty days in the
way OF finishing seeding OF oats, plow

is not expected to have much time for
marketing that grain. This factor,
