Dairy Products.

besl0es the general 1ooQ law, tnls
State has specific laws in regard to
the sale of milk, skinned milk,
cream, butter, cheese, and limitations
of butter and cheese. The pure law
covers, in some degree, also renoyat-
ed butter, condensed milk, condensed
skinned milk and evaporated milk.
There are no restrictions in any
of the food laws or dairy laws on
the use of salt, rennet, sugar or
harmless coloring matter in dairy
products, in which these added in
gradients are usual or necessary.
limitations of butter and cheese
may not contain any added coloring
matter, neither may they be sold if
they have yellow color for any
other reason. The code, section 2517.
Standards are as follows:
Milk must contain not less than
l2aa per cent of milk solids, and not
less than 3 per cent of butterfat.
Skimmed milk is unadulterated
milk containing less than 12aa per
cent of milk solids or less than >
per cent of butterfat.
Cream must contain not less than
Is per cent butterfat.
Cream, milk or skinned milk are
"adulterated" if anything whatever
has been added. Section 1890, the
code.
Butter must contain not less than
so per cent butterfat. Food law,
section Is Q907.)
Cheese must be made from milk
that has not been adulterated, or
skinned or partially skinned.
SKINNED milk cheese is that
which has been made from skinned
milk, or partially skinned milk and
must be marked skinned milk
cheese in letters one inch high and
a half-inch wide. The code, section
1889.
Condensed milk (sweetened) and
evaporated milk (unsweetened must
be sold under names or labels not
deceptive as to the character of the
article itself.
Renovated butter and oleomar-
garine are articles upon which there
is a United States revenue stamp
tax and, under the revenue laws,
should be sold always from the
package to which the revenue stamp
is attached The dealer in oleo-
margarine is required to have a
license from the United States col
lector Of internal revenue. There
is no State restriction upon the sale
of renovated butter, except that il
must be sold under it's proper name
The state law designates oleomar
gerine as substitute for butter.
When sold, it must be accompanied
by printed statement that it is {
substitute for butter and giving the
name and address of the maker

More Fake Trust Busting.

1t is announced that the federal
authorities are now going to pro-
ceed against the international Har-
vester trust, and it would therefore
behoove farmers who are contempla-
ting the buying Of farm machinery
to do it now.
The result ef the trust busting
operations of the administration in
the past has been to increase the
cost of the commodities of the trusts
proceeded against, and it can hard
ly be hoped that the result will be
any different with reference to the
harvester trust. So look out for
higher priced farm machinery.
The coal trust, the beef trust, the
paper trust, and several other trusts
that might be mentioned, are all ad-
judged dead by federal decree, but
their agreements as to prices are
just as ever before, and their prices
are even higher than ever before.
Since Roosevelt himself laid down
the rule in the case of Paul Morton
that trust magnate cannot be jail
ed, the trusts only laugh at federal
law.
If caught in their illegal practices
they only arrange their affairs sc
that they cannot be caught again
and if mulcted in fines, they quickly
recoup their losses by turning the
screws down a little harder upon the
consumers Of their wares.
Some of the states are proceeding
against the International and caus
ing it some embarrassment, but {
federal prosecution with it's sim
munity bath" attachment, will onl.
cause it amusement.
There is but one way by. whicl
the International can be reached ef
fectively, and that is through tn
tariff.
1t is matter of common knowl
edge that this trust is selling farm
machinery in foreign markets fror
25 to so per cent cheaper than it
selling the same class of goods il
the United States. the export pric
being made to meet the competitio
of the foreign manufacturer.
Deprive it of the shelter of th
tariff-compel it to meet thi
same competition right here o
American soil, and a remedy wi
have been provided that is at ono
permanent and complete.

Noses of Great Men.

Prominent noses seem to have been
the property of many great men. Ly-
curgus and Solon had noses six inches
In length, and Ovid was surnamed
Naso on account of his large nose.
Scipio NasIca derived his name from
his prominent olfactory organ, and
Alexander the Great aud Cardinals
Wolsey and Richeieu all had large
noses. On the medals of Cyrus and
ArtaXerxes their noses came clear out
to the rim OF the coin. Washington's
was the true aquilne type, indicative
Of firmness and patience, as was the
nose of Julius Caesar. Mohammed had
a singular nose. 1t was so curved that

FOUR RACES IN COTTON FIELD
Whites, Negroes, Indians and Japa-
nese Work In Oklahoma.

Guthrie, Okla, Oct. I'm the cot
ton fields of Oklahoma this year no
less than four races of men--white,
black, red and yellow--and fee ma
onalities-American Indian, Mexi-
can, African and Japanese-are work
ing almost side by side, while the crop
is being gathered more promptly than
usual, because of the introduction OF
new labor
The Japanese are the latest cotton
picking recruits, and Oklahoma is the
first cotton-growing state to expert
ment with them. Thus far they have
proved satisfactory, and they will be
used next season also for tending and
shopping the crop as well as picking
1t, thus to degree supplanting ne
groes. OF course, the colored people
are best pickers, but they have given
much trouble in the past. or the In
iians, the Arapahoes and Cheyennes
have done the best.
Five years ago pickers could be en-
ployed for as low as rs cents day
and board, whereas now, If hired by
the day, the price is s1.25 and board,
and in rush seasons. the price goes as
high as 81. Negroes as a rule prefer
to pick by the hundred pounds, from
rs cents to 81 per hundred being the
price, and rapid pickers make 50 and
81 per day.

Kent IL I'm.

A Russian grand duke, finding
himself with few days ts

the theater, and being a person OF
Importance, thought himself bound
to send bouquet to the principal
actress, says II Rise. A month after
ward, being In the same apartments,
his servant announced that a lady
wished to see him. Going to the room
he found an unknown lady before
him
Il am afraid your highness does
not recognize me-" she said. II am
Mariquita, an actress, and | have
come to thank you for your kind at
tentions."
Il recognize you now, madam
replied the duke. "but | think You
are mistaken. | only sent you one
bouquet"
But 1t was your servant who
brought them each evening"" she
said.
Accordingly the servant was
called, and eventually, with much
confusion, he said to his master:
When took the first bouquet,
your highness, the lady gave me a
tip OF five francs, and as the bouquet
cost only forty sous | made three
francs over 1t. So repeated the per-
formance, with the same result each
time. pray your highness' pardon"

FINDS ANCIENT PAINT SECRET
Indian Mound Explorer Discovers PIC

destructible.

Bakersfield, Cal, Oct. 1.-The long
sought secret of the composition OF In
destructible paint, used by the Egyp'
tians and North American Indians. is
believed to have been discovered by
the finding of heretofore unknown
mineral substance in the Kern river
oil field by F, H. Austin, who has
been pursuing scientific investigation
for two years.
Austin found this substance which
he named "Diatine,' while digging in
ancient Indian mounds. He sent
samples to the United States govern
ment biologists for examinatiea and
has received their report, which coin
cides with his own,
A string of beads OF this material

One of the best comments on our fall
showing of millinery came to us from
well known out-of-town patron.
"What appealed to me most in your
millinery" she said, "was the practical
nature of every hat They do not ap-
pear bit fussy or gaudy and the colors
are superb. You show such an assort-
ment of them, too-particularly in
street hats"
The hats at $3.50, SO and Sl5, with
the in-between prices, represent some
of the most clever ideas of our own ar
fists as well as adaptations from foreign
models.
Extraordinary millinery at ordinary
