Senate Rejects Nevada
Indian War Claims

At Washington last week Senator W.
A. Massey of Nevada introduced a bill
relating to the recording of notice and
certificate of location of mining claims
in certain cases. The bill is designed
to benefit Nevada miners. The bill
provides for description of the claims
and proof upon them.
Senator Massey tried in vain to at.
tsch several Nevada claims to the ON
nibus claims bill. They grew out OF
hostilitles against the Piute Indians ID
Nevada in 1850 Settlers in Nevada
territory voluntarily contributed horses,
provisions. ammunition and other sup
plies for an expedition against the In.
dians. The latter defeated the expedi.
tion and captured much of its property
The volunteers claimed reimbursement
for their losses from the Government,
although the expedition was not Gov
ernment affair. upon the ground that
the Indians were the wards of the Gov
ernment, and that it was up to the Gov.
ernment to protect the settlers.
Some of the claims have been passed
upon by the Court of Claims favorably.
but the Senate rejected them after q
speech In their favor by Judge Massey.

DATES FROM EARLIEST TIMES
Alfalfa. Probably Oldest Forage Known,
Can Be Traced Through Worlds
Whole History

Alfalfa, perhaps the oldest Of all culti-
yated forage or hay plants. has had his
tory scarcely less interesting than that Of
many nations which have utilized it
Those nations have prospered almost in
direct proportion to the extent to which
they have used it. The name "alfalfa"
comes from the Arabs and means 1.-THE
best fodder" and in fact it appears to
have originated in Media or in some ad.
jacent country, as the folklore tales from
lands on different sides of this area point
toward Media as the place whence il
came.
The wars OF the Persian invasion Of
Greece took the plant to the latter coun-
try about 500 B. c., it being the custom
for the advance emissaries to precede
the army and to plant fields for the sus-
tenance Of the herds which helped sup
port the invading hosts. From Greece
it advanced to Italy and Spain by sue.
cessive stages, and was taken TO Old
Mexico by the Spaniards about 1919 A
ID.
From there 1t was carried to South
America and later 1854 entered Cali
fornia through the Golden Gate at the
time OF the activities incident to the dis.
covery OF gold in that State. Thence it
spread over the irrigated sections and
more recently has continued its march
eastward until now IL is by far the most
important forage crop Of such States as
Nebraska and Kansas.

SACCHARIN Is TOO SWEET
Remsen Board Prohibits It's Use, but
VIII Allow BenzOate in Small
Quantities

Washington, Feb. 2.-Saccharin can
not be used in foodstuffs sold in the
United States after today. Eminent
hemists and pure food experts have
decided that its continued use is dele
terious to health, and under authority
of the pure food law the secretary OF
agriculture, the secretary of the treas
ury and the secretary Of commerce and
Dor have issued an order against It's
use This order is a blow to many in
dustries and is regarded by govern
ment authorities as one of the most
important and far-reaching issued
since the pure food act was passed.
More than thirty classes Of feodstuffs
are affected.
The saccharin decision handed down
by the Remsen board, the first having
been to uphold the use of benzoate Of
soda in small quantities as a preserva-
tive of foodstuffs. This latter decis-
ion has been bitterly criticised. the op
ponents of ben7oate declaring that
even if that substance is harmless in
itself it enables preservers and can
ners TO put up decaying fruits and
vegeta bles which could not possibly be
used without a preservative.
The Remsen board found that sac
charm, which is a distillate or deriva-
tive of coal tar, and is 800 times as
sweet as sugar. is likely seriously to
affect the digestive functions when
used il quantities of over three-tenths
of a grain a day for any considera bic
period. While intensely sweet. sac
charm has no nutritive value, declare
the experts.
The Remsen decision sustains the
original findings of DR.. Harvey w.
Wiley and other experts, who had
asked that the use of saccharin be
condemned. While defeated in the
benZoate of soda case. DR.. Wiley 5
Judgment has been vindicated n he
