Why salt should be regularly sup
plied to stock is thus put by famous
English authority: Because In the
blood Of animals there is six or seven
times more sodium than potassium, and
that the composition Of the blood is
constant To keep animals In good
health a definite amount Of common
salt must be assimilated. The excess
of potassium salts In vegetable foods
causes by chemical exchange an alb
normal loss Of common salt. This Is
proved by the fact that the craving of
an animal for common salt is most no
t,ceable when the food contains large
proportion of potassium salts, such as
wheat, barley, oats, potatoes, beans and
peas The addition Of salt to animal

Secret Service Men
After Liquor Dealers

1t was learned yesterday that Sc
cret service men have recently made
examination of liquors carried In
stock by saloonists in the city and
that a number of chemical analys rs
followed. Reports from these have
been sent to washington. 1t is stat
ed on reliable authority that a num-
Der of violations of the pure food Law
were established and that actions can
be expected later along in the courts
seems altogether probable. The work
here was done very quietly and with
out the knowledge to except more
than a very few that secret service
men were in town. They departed as
quietly as they came. In regard to
their work. one of the inspectors had
the following to say:
This work has been going on
quietly in Nevada since January. We
have visited nearly every town of any
size in Nevada. A strange fact
brought out by our trip is that we
have found that the saloons in the
new mining camps, the places where
liquor is sold over soap boxes, be-
meath canvas tents on an average
have better liquor for sale than do
many of the best houses in Nevada.
In nearly every instance their liquors
have come up to the standard set
by the government. It is in the
larger towns that We have found the
violators."

of the speech, every possible effort
to keep it secret is said to have been
made. and to such effect that hardly
an inkling of II was given to the pub

contained these startling statements
is as follows:

Great Britain were to be jeopardized

sire to restrict grazing on the water
sheds which affect the irrigation of
farm lands. while the stockmen have
vigorously opposed such restriction.
In discussing the matter Secretary
Wilson said:
THE protection OF the watersheds
and streams supplying irrigation res
ervoirs depends primarily upon the
possibility of giving full protection
to all areas where grazing Is al
lowed. The fewer forest officials
there are to attend to the grazing
business on the national forests. the
more land will have. to he closed to

and irrigators on the ground this
summer and determine what restrfc-
tions, If any. will serve the best In
