TESTIFY IN FAVOR OF OLEO.
son HiIl-ReIative Merits of OleO
and Butter Compared,

The hearing on the Burleson bill on the
taxation of oleo was before the House
Committee on Agriculture at Washing
ton.
Representative Burleson himself was the
FIRST speaker and he described the provi-
SONS Of mis- bill and the relative merits Of
oleo as compared with butter. Mr.. Burle-
son said that the advocates OF the pre-
sent law urged that oleo was unwholesome
and unpal atable. Both OF these charges.
the speaker declared. were untrue, and he
cited various authorities, including the
courts. to the contrary. Second, he said.
1t was charged that the production OF
oleo was for fraudulent purpose-to imi-
tate butter-and it brought this product
into competition with butter.
Mr. Buileson has collected statistics
from branches of the government to show
that only g. per cent of the farms are
engaged III the butter business. and the
remaining number were directly interest
ed in beef and cotton, which two products
are relied on to produce oieo. in other
words 93.S per cent. of the farmers are
consumers OF butter. This. he believes.
was conclusive proof that the farmers
are not behind II bill which aims to pro-
hibit the manufacture of cleo. Support
Ing his plea with these statistics he APP
pealed to congressman to stand up for
their cons tituents.

Describing the effect Of the present law

ready 1t Is universally believed that
butter trust exists. In opposition to BUT
ter Itself, he declared that butter Is
product that carries diseases far quicker
than oleo. maintaining that oleo is far
safer commodity than butter
He then spoke OF the effects or inc
present law and It's practical operation.
During the eight years which 1t has re-
manned in force it has cost the govern
nent about 500. OOo 900 to enforce. and as
a revenue producer II hos been an absolute
failure. The present Burleson bill, he
| said, Is practically the minority report
offered when the present law was reported
| for passage by Congress.
Besides being a failure as revenue pro-
duter. he said. It has not stopped the
frauds whereby oleo is substituted Tor
| butter but It is shown that these frauds
have increased no per cent This being
so. ne maintained that the present law
has failed to accomplish the two things
| for which II was designed, and therefore
should be repealed.
He stated that the census in 1902 shows
| the year before the passage or the presen
law. 100000 pounds Of colored and un
oclored oleo was manufactured; In 1903
the year after the law became effective
only T2.00o,nO pounds were produced. anf
in 1903 this had increased to a2ooC.oD
The increase in the manufacture of oleC
under the present law Is directly attribut
able to the increased cost OF butter.
Or. II. W. Wiley Of the bureau o
chemistry. then spoke in favor Of the bill
His testimony was comparatively brie
and was to the effect that the bureau o
chemistry in the department Of agricu
| ture had found in the course OF Its re
| searches that oleo was wholesome
and nutritious product and that its us'
was unobjectionable. Or. Wiley went OF
to speak OF the poisonous germs found /,
many grades OF butter, including various
diseases which are thus propagated in thu
human race. He thought that oleo wa
likely to he freer from these germs, whil
he had found that It was composed of sub
stantially the same constituents as but

SOURCES OF RUBBER.
Some of the Plants Tint Produce II

Probably every few of those who have
gone mad OH rubber shares know that the
number of plants producing rubber is
considerable and that they differ very
materially in their relative value in the
production of rubber for commercial pur-
poses.
The most important of these is Hevea
braslieusis. "A tree attaining to a consid-
cradle height and belonging TO the nat
NAL order Euphorhiaceae This Is the
source of Para rubber which has long
held Il commanding position in British

Para rubber is obtained from several
species of iIeven. but by far the most
| important Of them is II. brasiiensis

America and with other members of tine
genus is strongly represented in the region
drained by the mighty Amazon and Its
tributaries.

over Il large region to the south and the
