the original was given first to the
public. A new machine which the
city bought few weeks ago and in
stalled in the city hospital has all the
latest improvements. This new ma
chine has what is known as a fluor-
scopic screen which prevents abso-
lutely the burning of the patient and
enables the rays to be focused on a
patient with none of the old attending
dangers.
The fluorscopic screen is made of a
material which deadens the heat, yet
at the same time admits the rays. In
the original X-ray, photographs of the
bones were taken, though no attempts
were made to fathom the mysteries
of the vital organs, such as the heart,
stomach and lungs. Now it is differ.

room similar to that which one may

is not so much apparatus lying about

: ton of salaries than was the second
! legislature, and yet the habit OF play
the demagogue and declaring in favor
of the dear down-trodden lawmakers
become second nature with many or
/ the taxpayers of the state. That was
| illustrated splendidly by the last leg
| islature, when a salary bill was pass
ed which should have had its caption
"A Bill to Prevent the Counties of
Oklahoma from Employing Compe-
tent Help" The salary law as passed
by the last Legislature was simply an
outrage to decency perpetrated in
the name of the taxpayers and at
their expense. The house is now con-
sdering the proposition of enacting
a district attorneys bill, creating a
new office in each of the judicial dis
tricts of the state, and it is frankly
said that this is done because under
the law passed last year, the salary
for county attorney is not high
enough 10 secure a good attorney.
The legislature has before it, a bill
providing for the office of the county
assessor, but it is very doubtful
whether the compensation provided
will be enough to secure a reason
able fair valuation OF property. IN
deed when the bill came up in the
house, a number of men voted
against it on the ground that the COM
pensation allowed by the bill was
so small it would be impossible to
properly assess their counties under
the provision of the proposed act.
The last legislature evidently mov-
ed by influences which did not have
the minors interest at heart, emas-
culated the probate law by provid-
ing that minor property might be dis
posed Of, and all OF the steps neces-
sary to the sale of the land taken
without publication. In practical op-
GRAFTON, this simply meant that by a
small expenditure the land grafters
could go to the negro uncle or aunt
and secure the waiver of guardian
ship rights; have his henchmen ap-
pointed as guardian and his private
attorney, the attorney for the guar
dian, appraise the land, and sell it
without notice or any competition.
This has been going on on the east
side of the state for a year. In ev-
cry county on the east side of the
state, negro and Indian minors have
been robbed right and left. The
courts have been helpless. 1t has
been the practice of land grafters to
post notices as provided by law, and
then have them torn down before the
public has had chance to find out
about the proposed land sales.
There is strong movement in the
house to repeal these sections Of the
probate law, and about every one
seems to be in favor of it.

DESIRE PURE SEED LAW.
Farmers viii Urge Regulation of Fer
tiIzer and Stock Food Business.

Medford, O.-The members Of the
Farmers institute took positive
stand on several measures that will
be submitted to the General Assembly
for enactment into laws. One meas
ure commended was bill proposed to
prevent the adulteration of grass and
other seeds sold in the seed markets
to farmers and growers.
1t was stated that Ohio and other
states have become the dumping
ground for inferior seeds from Canada
and Europe because there are no laws
prohibiting such importations.
1t was stated by state lecturers that
many obnoxious weeds and other pests
had been introduced into the Buckeye
state by aduiterated seeds imported
from foreign lands.
Another resolution was In favor of
laws to compel fertilizer manufactur-
ers and the compounders of CONNER
cial stock foods to mark their pack
ages with tags showing the correct
analysts Of the contents.

There is little or no change in the
state of the larger trades. Conuac

steel, but the outlook for the,new year
IS regarded with encouragement. In
he month of December twenty-seven
additional furnaces were blown out
and the daily rates OF production fell
rom 63. $50 to 81 ,252 tons. or nearly
$4,000 tons less than in the cores
bonding period of 1909 However
prices at all leading centers still dis
play tendency toward greater weak
ness and buyers are holding back in
the hope that further concessions viii
be granted In some other branches of
the industry conditions appear more
encouraging. Reports from Chicago
and Pittsburg indicate a better inquiry
from the railroads, while the outlook
in the structural division is considered
quite promising.

over are pushing sales OF white goods
and domestics, while iobbers are busy

however, merely to ask Rockefeller
