The most pressing duty of the state
dafrv bureau is to bring about better
sanitary conditions of the dairies-
Diaries are not more sanitary in TINS
state than in any other, but to supply
the demand for dairy products a great
many dairies must be maintained and
therefore a great many persons must
have a hand in the management of
the industry. Among the $4,000 to 49,
600 managers Of dairies in this state
it must be expected that many will be
found who are careless and have but
little regard for proper sanitary con-
ditions. From July l, 1911, up to the
present time five or six inspectors have
worked all the time. Their work has
been extended to practically all parts
of the state from the Oregon to the
Mexican line. AS a result of the work
hundreds of new barns have been built
and thousands of others have had good
substantial floors put in and have had
provisions made for better light and
ventilation. Thousands of new sepa-
rator and milk houses have also been
built. In nearly all cases the owners
or renters of the dairies are in favor
of improving conditions and are quite
willing to make such changes as the
inspectors suggest. There have, how
ever. been a few who objected to the
inspectors' Interference with their bus
mess. and some have stated that they
desired to test the law giving the in
spector authority to do so. Others have
promised to comply but have failed to
do so.
Most Of the inspectors work far from
the headquarters of the bureau and
therefore they have been allowed to
use their own judgment as to whether
the law has been Intentionally violated
They have been instructed to get ne
cessary improvem in sanitary con-
ditions without resorting to prosecu-
tions. if such was possible, except
where the product was found to be
handled in extremely filthy utensils.
In such cases they have endeavored TO
make an example of the offender. AS
it is difficult for a stranger to obtain
a conviction in a locality where the
defendant is residing only the most
fIagrant cases have been taken into
court.
Prosecutions in One Year
During the year ending October 81,
1912, the inspectors for this bureau
have made complaints and caused to
be prosecuted 155 offenders, as fol-
lows:
For selling dairy products from un-
sanitary dairies, ia; for selling wa
tered, or otherwise adulterated milk,
35; for selling colostrum milk, 2; for
selling adu1terated ice cream, 2; for
selling short weight butter, /; for sell
ing milk from diseased cows, /; total,
1856; number of cases dismissed, 1;
number of convictions, 154; number Of
cases appealed, 1; number of cases in
which defendant pleaded guilty but
sentences were suspended, 8; number

Enforcing Weight Law

AS was stated above this act relat-
ing to the weight of butter was ap-
proved April 81, 1911, and took effect
so days thereafter. On the day the
tailed to different parts of the state
to call at the retail stores and ask
for a 2-pound, or a 1k pound square
of butter. At that time the inspectors
were not known to the dealers, and
they had no difficulty in passing off
for actual consumers. Thus they could
ascertain that in a great many in
stances squares of butter actually
weighing only 2S to 80 ounces were
represented to weigh and sold as 2
pound squares. When the inspector
worked in the large cities each one
could weigh in from so to so stores
each day, and as many of the dealers
had several brands of butter for sale
more than SO per cent of the dealers
had one brand or another that was
short in weight and. which was sold
for greater weight than the true
net weight. To have had all these peo-
pie, who We're ignorant of the law,
arrested would not have been produc-
tive of much good, so the first two
months was spent in advertising the
law. Later few cases were brought
TO show that penalty could be i'm
posed If the law was not complied
with. In no instance has the bureau
been able to get results so quickly as
In the enforcement Of this law. The
retailers who had ordered their butter
10 De put up SO that a 30-square box
would weigh Sc to 5S pounds changed
thelr orders Immediately and ordered
full weight. Those who had paid no
attention to the weight but were ap-
prised by the inspectors that MANY of
the squares were short got busy and
saw to it that the butter was put up
fulI weight. Some of the managers
OF creameries said that as soon as an
inspector arrived in the city the tele-
phone would ring and some customers

was attacked, ii employed a very prom
inent attorney to see that this friendly
case was properly tried. At the re-
quest of the state dairy bureau the
attorney office also stood
ready to assist and one of its deputies
appeared in court several times in or
der to keep posted as to the proceed
ings. But the district attorney of San
Francisco was satisfied that he was
able to handle the case, which he did
successfully.

Wants to Refund to Company

That the world is getting better is no more a himsy unreality to Station Agent C. E. Blaine. He recently received a letter from a writer who desires to "restitute" the Santa Fe company for having criminally and with malice afore- thought cheated, robbed, de- frauded and mulcted the said common carrier out of two-thirds of the fare coming to them, be- tween stations. Having come to a clearer knowledge of the woe, want and wistfulness of said pow erty bounded institution, now de- sires to remove this stain from her conscience and smear it on the corporation. MT. Blaine is some stumped and is figuring on calling together the directors of the road to settle the matter.

Underground Rivers of Arizona

Recent investigations of the un- derground waters of Arizona and Texas, completed by the geologi- cal survey, has developed the theory that there is great under ground river extending through Arizona and Texas, and emptying into the Gulf of Mexico. No at- tempt has yet been made to se- cure water from this great river, but as it is being traced out it is probable that it will be used for the irrigation of a great acreage, if it can be made available. The survey has for many years been Investigating h underground flows of the different states and its discoveries have been of mate rial advantage in the securing of artesian water in sections hereto fore believed to be waterless. Should the further investigation of the underground flow prove that waterlesS sections of our new state can secure artesian water it will make available some of the richest lands in the world. The peculiar ebb and flow ot water in the Silver Creek section in this county, would lead to the belief that there is a flow from some point far to the north, which rises with the Colorado river and forms springs high on the mountainside, to diminish and fail as the river subsidies late in the summer. A thorough investigation of the sub- ject might be found of inestima- ble benefit to the people along the Mohave valley in the securing of water on the high lands above the encroachment of the river.

Sent Obscene Literature Through
 U. $. Mails

United States Post Office h. spector Dutton was in Jerome this week prosecuting a Spaniard for sending obscene literature through the United States mails. The prisoner had posted an ob- scene picture to a friend in Cali fornia, and during its transmits sion the envelope which contained 1t became torn, the picture falling to the postal car floor while the clerk was handling the letters. He reported to headquarters, from where a deputy U. s. marshal was instructed to find and arrest the Spaniard. This he very quickly accomplished. The man was taken before U. s. Commis- sioner Rutherford, who bound him over to the U. s. grand jury in the sum of $500. The prisoner furnished cash bail. Although the Spaniard was undoubtedly ig- norant of the law covering the crime for which he was arrested, Uncle Sam, who doesn't overlook ignorance of the law pleas, will impose a penalty of some propor- ion.-Ierome News.
