FOREIGN OWNERS OF LAND
Are Not Allowed In State Of Oklaho.
ma-some States Limit an
Aliens Holdings.

Several states of the Union spe-
officially prohibit foreigners from
owning land within their borders.
In Oklahoma it is prohibited alto
gether. Other states allow natural
lied aliens to own land and those
who have declared their intention to
become 80.
This is also the law in the Dis
trict of Columbia. Nevada makes
no restrictions as to foreigners ex-
cept Chinese, who are not permitted
to own land in that state. Some Of
the states, including Indiana and
Iowa, limit the amount Of land an
alien may own to $50 acres.
In South Carolina the limit is 500
acres and in Pennsylvania 5000. In
New York and Texas the laws are
similar in their effect to the law re-
Gently passed by the Japanese diet.
This law restricts the ownership Of
land in Japan to such foreigners as
come from a country which extends
similar privileges to Japanese resi-
dents, says Case and Comment. The
operation Of the Japanese alien land
ownership law, it is said, will not
materially change the status Of
Americans in Japan in the matter
Of land ownership. Under the terms
# the treaty of 1894 citizens of each
country may own or hire and occupy
houses, manufactures, warehouses,
shops and premises in the country
Of the other and may lease land for
residential and commercial purposes,
put the treaty does not confer rights
70 own or hire agricultural lands.

For ExtinquishInq OIL.

For extinguishing oil fires where
water is both ineffective and danger
GUS, frothy liquids have been recon-
mended. In late test near Hamburg
a mixture of one quart each Of caustie
soda and alum solutions yielded IL
quarts Of yellowish-white foam, hav
ing q density Of Ola. and this could
be sucked up and distributed like wa
ter by a hose. A basement Of 80 square
feet, filed with benzine to 20 inches
was fred, and was extinguished in 7s
seconds with 10 gallons Of the fr0thy
mixture, and burning benzine tank
six feet In diameter and nine feet high.
was extinguished In 13 seconds. The
benzine was little affected, burning az
usual after removal Of the froth,

Collars Of Milk.

Sounds queer, doesn't It? But some
body over in Europe thought Of way
to utilize goats milk. and these collars
are the result They are said to be
quite as useful as the collars Of cellu-
loid. In addition, they are less bright
in finish, SO that they are in this way
somewhat Of an improvement over the
old celluloid collar.
The whey is separated from the
curds and the curds are then put
through a process which results in this
substance resembling celluloid.
Walters, coachmen, tradesmen and
other folk on the other side of the At
lantic use them extensively.

FattenIna Foods.

White bread is fattening because we
rarely digest 1t completely. Starchy
foods are quite unaffected by the gas
trio juices which digest the meats
Their digestive ferments are obtained
chiefly from the saliva in the mouth,
which therefore should be thoroughly
mixed with each mouthful before
swallowing. But white bread Is so soft
and lacking in substance that we un-
consciously swallow it long before it
has had q fair chance to become SUI
flciently fermented with the digestive
saliva. The result. is delayed diges-
ton III digestion takes place at ally,
and at the best the starch is very apt
to be converted into disf1guring, un-
wanted and unhealthful fat.

Young men with meagre salaries
evolve financial makeshifts abhorrent
to the moral and physical sensibilities
OF their opulent elders. Said one
young sprig Of boarding house gen.
tility to another who expected to seek
new quarters upon his return from a
two-months' trip on the road:
What are you going to do with all
this personal truck that is cluttering
up your room? 1t will cost you any
how a dollar a month for storage"
mot the way l am working things"
said The man who was going away.
Il have purposely RETAINED from
paying board for four weeks and the
landlady will hold my stuff OF
course shall square up when l come
back and get 1t again. and in the
meantime she will give 1t free stor-
age"

Old Maine House.

One of the Oldest houses in Win

Turkey lane" The name may not
be familiar to present residents oil
the town. but Turkey lane was nc
dream to a past generation.
Its odd nomenclature Is derived
from the fact that prior to the wal
all the residents of the highway over
the crest Of the ridge owned and
raised turkeys and over 100 gobblers
each year gobbled their living here
until a fateful Thanksgiving removed
them from earth. The old Morton
house stands just at the turn Of the
