OF EGGS.

Washington, Sept. 6:-Improper
handling of eggs Is responsible for
an annual loss Of the huge sum of
s45, 00O,O00, according to Depart
ment of Agriculture experts who
have been Investigating the egg
smashing business. This enormous
loss Is due to small eggs, cracked
and broken eggs, dirty, stale and
rotten eggs. The improper handling
Is a loss to farmers, middlemen and
consumers alike, say the experts, and
they urge everybody to get busy and
institute reforms which will do away
with 1t. Here are some Of the plans
suggested for betterment:
Encourage the production of large
eggs.
Take steps to insure proper dis
position of infertile eggs. Dirty
egg will be reduced to a minimum
If proper care Of nests Is taken.
More than ten per cent of eggs
received in New York during the
year are stale. This is not neces-
sary if eggs are promptly collected
and expeditiously shipped to market.

CONGRESS SPEED MANIA.

Washington, Sept. 6:-That spirit
Of rush and hustle, a sort of psy-
Geological speed mania, which Con-

rotary Of the Navy Meyer. Here is
the way the Secretary dopes 1t out:
Said he: "You know, Congress,
about adjournment time reminds me
of a log jam when 1t breaks up.
There seems to be an everlasting
blockade until the jam log goes out.
When the jam log goes, all the rest
of tht logs follow"

Giants, and the lunatic, he asked

EXPLAINS HOLES IN CHEESE.
Washington, Sept. 6:-The De-
partment of Agriculture has solved
the mystery of holes in cheese. The
solution Is embalmed in a neat little
treatise Just issued and bearing
the title, "The Cases of Emmental
Cheese"
Emmental cheese, be it known,
covers the Schweitzer, or Swiss va
riety, and that has huge "eyes" or
holes running through 1t. The holes
really make the cheese, because it
is by their spacing and number that
the expert Classics the cheese as
good or bad.
1.-THE socalled eyes in Swiss cheese
are its most prominent characterize
ics," the Department sharps declare
in the booklet. "Its commercial value
Is largely dependent upon the proper
size and spacing of these eyes. While
the hole is not the whole of it, much
depreciation in value of this popular
variety of cheese is known to exist
pOCduoo VI ueleCtS III eye "lOTIldtlOu
Hence, to the biological chemist,
their formation is a fascinating sub
ject, and to the cheese maker a mat
ter Of great Importance"
The eyes are caused by chemical
changes in the cheese. They are
pockets formed by gases gener-
ated in the ~"ripening" process. In
the Emmental types, these gases are
carbon dioxid and nitrogen.

resolution. Led by Representative

to prevent its passage because of the
senate amendment, which gave the fed

entirely on the danger of negro domi-

The first vote taken was on an
amendment by representative Bart

Exemption Goes With Land.

Washington, D. c.. May 10. = The
United States supreme court today de-
cided the state cannot tax the land
allotted the Indians where the treaties
provided the land should be exempt
Many millions of dollars are lost by
the decision. Oklahoma claimed the
right to tax the lands under the law of
May 27. 1908. which provided that the
land of the Indians should be free from
restrictions regarding its sale and tax
alton. The court held that the terms
Of the patents to the Indians were
binding on the government. The court
also held the exemption went with the
land, when sold, and was not personal
to the Indian. Justice Lamar announc-
ed the decision

ually a deed to the same. He sold the
land to w. II. Baysinger giving a war
.ranty deed, 1t afterwards developed
that through clerical error by the
Dawes Commission that the land had
been filed on by fuIl-blood Indian girl

issued to Singleton was cancelled and

Curious Land Case.

that has developed since the allotment
of Cherokee lands developed recently
in Delaware county Frank Singleton,
a Cherokee citizen filed on 20 oeres,
obtained certificate of filing and event

tire allotment is exempt from taxation
as long as the original allottee holds
the title. If the report of the decision
is correct this will mean that the
greater portion in both the Choctaw
and the Chickasaw nations will be ex-
empt from taxation and naturally
means that all the expenses of the
cities and counties will fall upon the
remaining small portion of the prop
erty.
The saving of money to the Indians
and the people of their tribes in these
two nations can scarcely be estimated,
but it would be safe to say that it
would run far beyond $25,O00,000 This
saving again means that just that
much must be paid by some one. else
as the running expenses of the state
and the various counties will be just
about the same. In these two counties
the money which must be refunded
will run in very big figures.
The question was raised in the fall
of 1908 when the petition of Bessie
Brown English was filed against the
treasurer of Tulsa county to resist the
taxation on homesteads of all citizens
in the Creek nation. 1t was filed as
a test case and the entire Creek Ma
tion was behind the action. M. ~.
Mott, H. L. Sturtevant and Grant Fore.
man were the attorneys for the Creeks
Congress had Just passed an act
placing the homesteads of all the
Greeks upon the tax rolls. This act of
congress known as the act of July q,
1908, provided that all homesteads of
all mixed bloods, all freedmen and all
full bloods whose restrictions had been
removed should be taxable.
1t was the contention of Mr.. Mott
ard the attorneys associated with him
that under the treaties with the
Creeks of March 8, 1901, and June 50,
1902, that this act was unconstitn
tional and that taxes so assessed and
collected hereunder were Illegal
They maintained that when the gov
ernment proposed the division Of the
lands of the Indians which they had be-
fore held in common and without any
dividing lines whatever certain con
cessions were made to the RadTen.
The Indians, they declared, did not
wish to change their manner of hold
ing the lands and the government re-
alizing this, agreed, as the Indian did
not know the ways of the white man
and his laws, not to tax him and his
property for u years simply as a
means of giving the Indian time to be-
come accustomed to the white mans
way of doing business.
This provision was placed in tbs
treaty and was also placed in each Of
he deeds to the Creeks, that for Il
years their 40-acre homestead Snould
not be alienable or taxable.
Some time after this case was filed
the Choctaws and Chickasaws filed
similar suits and these cases Were ad-
vaneed and taken up by the court with
the Creek case. In the Choctaw and
Chickasaw cases, however, there was
involved in addition to the homestead
the question of entire allotment and
the court handed down its decision in
the Choctaw case so as to include this
question along with the homestead
question, since the surplus allotment
question was not and could not be in
volved in the Creek case owing TO a
difference in the treaties.
