DEMURRER ARGUED
IN MEDICINE CASE
X. x. X. Medicine Co. VS.. w. {
Barney, State Food and Dairy
Commissioner.


A demurrer In the case of the 4.
K. X Medicine company, a Keokuk
corporation, against w. B. Barney,
state food and dairy commissioner of
Iowa, was partially argued before
Judge w. S. Hamilton in the district
court this morning
In it's character the case is very
interesting one. The suit was brought
in October, 1910, for the purpose of
enjoining W. b. Barney from proceed
ing criminally against the local med
icine company and from the collection
of license fee of 500 under an ami
NAL food act The contention is that
the DR.. Machins X. K. K. Condition
Powder Regulator, a medicine to be
given to live stock and poultry, is
not preparation that would bring
it under the act set out, but comes
under the pure food acts as a medi-
cine.
The defendant was represented by
Henry e. Sampson, an attorney from
the attorney generals office, while
Hazen l. Sawyer of Keokuk, and Ed
ward Fees of Wenona were present as
attorneys representing the plaintiff.
The state was given until November
Is to file brief, and the plaintiff
twenty days thereafter to answer.
The act which the state contends
governs the product involved has new
er been applied and is therefore of
interest.

Gold Dust a Necessity in Every Dairy

Nothing absorbs impurities SO quickly
as milk. To insure healthful milk and
butter, absolute cleanliness is necessary.
All milk bottles, strainers, etc, should
hrst be rinsed with cold water to remove
the new milk which would curdle in hot
water. Then wash in warm water to
which tablespoon of Gold Dust wash
ing. powder has been added, rinse and
sscald thoroughly with hot water, then
leave in the air and sun for at least
twelve hours before they are used again.
Have plenty of cloths, washing these
in the Gold Dust suds, same as the
utensils.

Salaries of Teachers
Is Threatening Clash

The question of who is responsible for
the holding back of the entire December
salaries for more than 800 teachers
threatens a clash between the Auditors
Office and the school officials.
The entire disposal of the question
must wait until the manner of paying
substitutes is finally determined upon.
But the checks of the teachers for serv-
ices actually performed are now being
held I'D, according to Auditor Alonzo
TweedaIe, because of the failure of the
Board of Education to forward him
certificate of the payroll.
Realizing that the teachers must want
their pay, the auditor said today he
notified the school officials that as soon
as the rolls were sent him checks in
mart payment of salaries for days about
which there was no question would be
made.
Resenting the statements attributed
10 school officials in interviews, that
the checks were being held up at the
Auditors Office. Mr.. Tweedale today de-
Clared he was willing to put his clerks
10 the task of making out extra cheeks
and had so notified Capt. James r. OyS-
ter, president of the board.
Captain oyster turned the matter over
to a committee, Of when Henry r,
blair is chairman, and that committee
&c expected TO confer with the auditor
some time today.
.'Theso teachers naturally want thelL
nav. or as much of it as they can get,
said Mr. Tweedale. Il am Wiling 10

I can get the payrOlls.

SCHOOL BATTLE ON
OVER SHEEPSK|NS
when Is a Diploma Not a
Diploma ?" Starts a
! Controversy.

When is a diploma not a diploma?
"When it is a sheepskin." declares
A T. Stuart, superintendent of pub
lie schools.
Two young men for the Business
High School Alumni Association start
ed this pathological controversy today.
They called on Mr.. Stuart and told
him IT was an injustice for the pupils
of the two-year courses to get paper
certificates when four-year graduates
received warranted sheepskln diplo-
mas.
you are guilty of tautolOgy," the
superintendent told them. IF dip
Iona is a diploma it is sheepskin.
Nor must We be partial to the four
year classes
We will be unbiased by giving them
all paper. Sheepskins cost so cents
this year" replied Harry Hine, secre-
tary of the Board of Education.
The superintendent called in the sec
retary post haste and explained the
grave danger threatened by such
course.
1--WE haven't any right to shatter a
time honored metaphor. We can't
break a valuable figure of speech and
upset a trusty tradition. Your idea
"But so cents is pretty high for
sheepskins," argued the secretary.
But imagine a commencement day
to remark on the commencement day
and accidentally refers to this sheep
skin / am about to give you and must
correct himself to this No. IA vellum
glazed paper"
Then they put the question up to the
Board of Education. There is a COM
mittee to handle such matters, but the
chairman telephoned back that the
matter ought to be referred to Mr..
Stuart. Capt. James F. Oyster, presi-
dent of the board, saw the gravity of
the situation when he learned of it.
So questions of paying teachers for
December. the little matter of what
Major Judson said to Mr.. Stuart, and
that Mckinley School addition which
never has been built. were sidetraCked
this morning. President Oyster even
failed to give out any statement today
about the municipal architect
President Stuart is prepared to de-
fend stanchly the metonymy. Harry
Hine says that money is needed for
a new boiler to the furnace at the
Cleveland Park School.
Phflologically and metaphorically the
superintendent says the change cannot
be made.
Economically and financially, the
boards secretary says it must.
Captain Oyster hopes the matter
won't have to be referred to Com
missioner Judson.
