LAW HELPFUL TO FARMERS
Will Increase Value of Butter in the State
Million and Half.
TAINTED CREAM NO LONGER sALEABLI
Iowa Going Into the Raising of
Fine Horses on Much Larger
Scale Than in Former
Years.
tFrom a star Correspondent

DIES MONIES July 15.-(Special iowa
butter will be worth 81, 100000 more annually
because of the new law prohibiting the use
of impure cream in its manufacture" This
statement was made by f. NJ. Wentworth,
agent in Iowa for the Pennsylvania rail-
road, who next to State Dairy and Food
Commissioner II. r. Wright is the best
posted man in the state OF Iowa the
butter business. The Pennsylvania ships
more Iowa butter than any other railroad.
Mr.. Wentworth is regularly in demand as
a speaker at dairy conventions and is con-
sidered by everyone familiar with the bust
ness an authority. Because of the new
law which makes II a punishable offense
to either sell or buy impure cream for pur-
poses of manufacturing into human food,
Iowa butter will score three points higher
on the New York market, which means
that it will be worth cents a pound more.
Second class butter, which includes that
scoring IS or below, will, by scoring three
points higher, come into the first cless,
which includes that scoring 81 and over.
The butter that has been scoring as first
class will be raised three points, bringing
II above SO points and causing It to score
as western extra" This will make
difference Of 2 cents a pound on the price
of the butter"
Iowa annually ships about So,0OOO00 pounds
OF butter 10 the eastern markets. An in
crease OF cents a pound means 81 800, coo
more for the butter produced in the state,
and most OF this will go to the farmers who
produce the cream. It is asserted that
previous to this time a vast amount OF the
cream that Is shipped TO the creameries
OF the state has been kept so long that It
is spoiled. Dairymen assert that on every
milk train a number Of cans will be found
where the cream is fermented and boiling
out OF the tops of the cans. This quality
Of cream makes very inferior butter and
the elimination Of this from the market by
the enforcement OF the new law, which
fixes a penalty for either buying or selling
this kind of cream, IT is said, will raise
the standard Of quality Of butter Of the

According TO John c. Simpson, secretary Of
the state department OF agriculture, Iowa is
destined soon TO become as famous a horse
state as II is now a cattle state. The indica-

for other western states, is shown by the
change I'm big horsemen dropping the inn

Buying a Gift Book.

The principle Of choice should In gen.
eral follow the taste or need Of the
friend for whom you are selecting a
book. Yet it is also well now and
then to open new channel of interest
by giving volume outside of your
friends habitual line. We are often
thankful to friend who has drawn us
out of our mental sheep tracks. There
are few writer's that stand as per-
manent figures in the modern literary
world writer's who have given out
seminal ideas that seed and beautify
the field of thought. Chief among these
men are Shakespeare, Carlyle, Ruskin,
Emerson and Victor Hugo. Until a libra
ry possesses at least the best writings
OF these five men it is sadly deficient.
You are doing kingly service when you
make these men known to any thought
full mind.-Edwin Markham in Success.

How 20 Detect Rase Coin

Several cases Of making and circulat

at the central criminal court during
the last few days. and at the conclusion
Of one of the cases the foreman of the
jury asked the authorities if they would
take a suggestion from twelve business
men who during the year had to deal
with considerable sums in silver coin
There was, he said. most simple test
for the detection Of base coin. 1t was
to sharply cut the milled edge of good
coin against the milled edge of the
suspected coin. If spurious the metal
would almost Immediately begin to
shave off. After making a personal test
the common sergeant said he quite
agreed with the suggestion of the jury
as to the usefulness Of the test and
said it ought to be made known.-Lcn

Varying Weight of the Body.

A physician points out that several
fallacies are common with regard to
the weight of the human body. The
man who congratulates himself on his
gain Of several pounds in weight in
given period may have no cause for
rejoicing, for he may be under delu-
sion. Very few persons, says the in
vestigator, have any correct idea of
their own weight As matter of fact,
the weight of the body is continually
changing owing to innumerable inf1u-
ences. On a warm day after break
fast man will lose more than a third
of a pound per hour. Seventy per cent
Of the body contains water, and it's
weight varies constantly. The infer
ence to be drawn from the loss or gain
of a pound or two may be mistrusted.
Fluctuations of a few ounces are a
sign that the body is in healthy
state.-Milwaukee Citizen.

The Life Line on the Foot.

Starting from the base of the big toe
there Is a distinct line. That is the life
line. In one foot it will curve along
until it terminates under the instep far
toward the lower base Of the little toe.
This means long life. If broken in the
hollow of the foot it denotes sickness
at middle age, and if it terminates in
the hollow of the foot it means short
life. This line is the most interesting
one on the foot. The experiments that
have been conducted have proved this
to be an almost unfailing reading of
longevity.

The Irish Bull In Journalism.

OF a well known reporter of past
generation many curiosities of style
are still repeated with zest by Dublin
journalists. 1t was this man who ex-
planned, describing a case Of drown
ing off Oakley, '"rhe body was washed
ashore by receding wave" OF fu-
gitive from justice he wrote: "The
burglar was surrounded on all sides by
the police. Escape was impossible.
Suddenly he made his way down q
cul-de-sac and disappeared through a
side street." The most popular story
Of this impressionist writer, however,
relates to Mr.. Gladstone. On the
Grand Old Mans one and only visit to
Dublin he was interviewed by the &C.
centric press man. Mr. Gladstone, at
the conclusion Of a somewhat amusing
array of questions, very courteously
expressed his pleasure at meeting the
interviewer. The latter, in high state
Of delight, said with enthusiasm, "The
pleasure Is mutual, Mr.. Gladstone, but
Is all on my side" -London Tribune.

The Sachem of Pokanoket.

The sachem of Pokanoket, known in
the history of New England as King
Philip, was the youngest son of Chief
Massasoit. His Indian name was Po
metacom, but his father was friendly
to the English colonists, who gave him
the name of Philip. His warfare upon
the settlers some fifty years after the
first landing of the pilgrims at Plym-
outh rock harassed them greatly, but
Philip was at last killed at New Hope,
and the war thus ended. The title of
king corresponded better with his Eng
lish name than the Indian title of
sachem would have done.
