PLUM PUDDING FROM
WOOD PULP IS NEXT
Also Soup, If It's Properly
Flavored-Makes Nice Milk,
Say Mill Experts.

Ballston. y. Y, Jan. 4.-Wood pulp
may soon be used for plum pudding, if
some of the testimony offered before
Supreme Court Justice Kellogg the 9TH
commonly believed that the usefulness
of wood pulp was limited to the manu-
f%acture of paper. but in view OF the
latest revelations the pulp may not be
unpa!atable as provided a flavor
ing extract is added.
The Union Bag and Paper
is defendant in the action which will be
decided some time in January. The
question is as to whether the water
from the company's pulp mill pollutes
creek. Some of the farmers along the
creek seem to mir the sulphuric acid
in the water is good for the COWS to
drink. One of the experts for the pa
per concern said that at the present
time the ToRr-out from the pulp mills
is mixed with molasses@ and fed to cat
tie. without giving those docile animals
a woody appearance.
Farmer John Leonard testified that
after he ditched his meadows the pulp
and sulphUric acid water actually i'm
proved the quality of his hay. He aid
he believes the overflow is beneficial.
ALBERT Wood, another farmer, said his
% head of cattle drank water from the
creek without affecting their milk or
butter. The %suIphuric acid makes the

c%ulturists asserted.
Not all of the residents in the area Of
alleged pollution took this rosy view of
the beneficial effect of the addition Of
wood pulp 10 the o supply OF the dis
trict. One old man said he'd be darned
if he'd drink wood pulp. and as for
making it into pudding and soup, as
suggested, he thought that was an
asinine proposition. or words to that
effect. He wanted to know if feeding
wood pulp to hens would make EN- lay
eggs with bark on EN-. This was a
poser for the learned experts. More
testimony will be taken after the holt

BONI WEEDS MISS MORGAN?
De Castellane's Sister-in-law Cred
tied With Announcement.

Paris, March LIT was reported
here that a statement was made at a
reception at Versailles by the Count
ess Jean de Castellane. sister-in-law of
Count Boni de Castellane. to the effect
that Count Boni was to wed Miss Anne
Morgan, daughter of ]. Pierpont Nor
gan of New York, as soon as his mar
riage to Anna Gould is annulled by the
vatican. Even the date was set as
early in June by the countess.
Count Boni de Castellane was asked
by the correspondent to verify or deny
the report, but declined to do either.
He contented himself with the state
ment that he knew Miss Morgan. He
met her at house party at Versailles
last year, where she was the guest of
Miss Elizabeth Marbury. Miss Elsie
De Wolf also was a member of the
house party.

STERLING Is AFTER
INTERSTATE HONOR
Has Chance for Winning Champion
ship in Tournament Being Held
at Madison, Wis.

The Sterling high school basket
ball team, which failed to win even
a preliminary in the state high school
championship series, is now con-
tender for Interstate honors on ac-
count of having won enough games
at Madison, Wis, to entitle it to con-
tend with Appleton, Wis, in the final
contest which is to be played there
this evening. The interstate meet
is being held at Madison under the
of the university of Wis
consin and teams from half a dozen
different states are represented. The
Illinois state association refused to
sanction the entrance of any Illinois
teams in the meet on account of the
being held at the same
time that the six best Illinois teams
were battling among themselves.
Sterling failed to get into this final
however, and felt free
to go to Madison anyway. Now the
team which failed to get a lookin at
the state honors here has a chance to
win even higher honors away from
home. 1t looks as though the other
states will have to take back seat
TO Illinois in the matter of basketball
teams.
