OIL TEST IS APPEALED.
Government Seeks to Uphold Land
Withdrawals by President Taft.

The judges OF the eighth circuit court
OF appeals have formally passed on to the
Supreme Court of the United States the
problems OF law arising from the at
tempt of the government to enforce its
withdrawal OF large sections of western
oil lands from entry before legislation in
1910 by Congress authorizing such with
drawals. The judges ask the Supreme
Court to answer six questions PROFOUND
ed by them, which would substantially
dispose of the entire controversy.
President Taft issued his first with
drawal order September -. 1909, ''in aid
of proposed legislation" July 2. 1910, he
issued another order in pursuance of law
enacted June 70. ratifying the September
order. Scores of entries were made, not
withstanding the September order. The
Midwest OIL Company of Wyoming pur-
chased the rights of some of these entry
men and is now operating oil wells on
these entries. The government recently
sought to enjoin them from taking oil
from the wells as test case.

WEARING WOODEN SHOES
MAY YET BECOME VOGUE
Uncle Sam Has Discovered Industry
Which Has Reached Good
ly Proportions.

Wooden shoes may yet become the
vogue in the United States, for an an
nouncement by the United States forest
service today declared the industry Of
manufacturing footgear had reached
considerable proportions" While the
wearers are not yet numbered among
the o'clock tea habitues or the darlings
of drawing rooms or salons, nevertheless
the demand for the foot covering pecu-
liar to Holland is growing.
These Shoes the forest service off,
Gals declare, ''cost from 60 to IS cents a
pair and are good for two years. They
are worn by those who have to work in
cold or wet places. such as tanneries
breweries and livery stables, and by
workmen in steel mills and glass fac
tories who must walk on hot CRATES or
floors. Farmers, too. are classed among
the users"
The discovery Of the existence Of this
infant industry was made when the serv-
ice experts undertook an Investigation
into the uses to which beech wood was
put. They found. to their surprise, that
in the manufacture Of shoes. dishes and
household articles more than 800. 00O. 600

MELVIN RETURNS FROM
TOUR OF INSPECTION
Chief of Bureau oil. Animal In
dustry Tells of South
American Trip.

DIR. A. d. Melvin. chief Of the bureau Of
animal industry, Department of Agricul-
ture. has returned to Washington after
three months tour of inspection among
the meat-producing countries of South
America on behalf of the department. DR..
Melvin spent a good deal of his time in
Argentine. which promises to be one of
the greatest meat-exporting countries of
South America.
In regard to his trip DIR. Melvin said:
of course. am glad to be back in this
country. but it would have been impos-
sible for any one to be more Hospitality
received and entertained than was. Ar
gentina is beautiful country. The gov
eminent is taking great deal of interest
in the meat-producing industry, and it
has as fine laboratory plant and equip
ment as could be found anywhere AS TO
the farms themselves, they would make
many American ranches look slovenly by
comparison.
Much of the cattle country is fenced,
even in the far outlying regions The
fences are both high and heavy and are
expensive to make. The posts have to be
imported from the north. where there is a
semi-tropical country with much wood
But once the fences are built they will
last almost indefinitely. They have to be
heavy, for l have never seen better beef
cattle anywhere.
The ranches have been breeding for
years and have produced some very fine
strains. / should say roughly there are
about 100000 head in the country, and
as the population is only about 1900, 600.
this leaves a good margin for export
They have been shipping a good deal Of
frozen meat to England and some to
Italy, but are now getting more into
chilled meat.
Several OF the liners running to New
York either now have or are putting in

PROTEST OF POSTAL CHANGE.
Objections to Placing Third Glass
Mail in Parcels Post.

Protests are being circulated by the
Postal Progress League against the pro-
posal OF the Postmaster General to in
ciude third class matter In parcel
post. In this proposition the league sees
danger to the printing, photographic. seed
and other -usiness. which largely use
this class of mail in their business The
league declares that the rate in MANY
instances would be increased more than
100 per cent, and IL would mot only place
an unconscionable and needless burden
upon the general business interests of the
country, but would tend to drive a large
part of the printing business TO Canada
and to Europe. whence catalogues could
be mailed throughout this country for
a third or fourth of the proposed rate.
The question of raising the rates on this
class of matter Is now before the inter-
state commerce commission for decision.

APPROPRIATIONS OF BEEF
PILE UP DURING AUGUST
Exports, on the Other Hand,
Show Decrease-C0me
Mostly From Mexico.

Increases in the importations of beef
enormously during the month of August,
according to figures just produced by the
bureau of foreign and domestic commerce
Contrasted to this are the heavy de-
creases In the expectations of beef and
beef cattle While only a comparatively
small number of cattle were exported.
they called for prices at considerably
lower per head than former years, despite
the general advance in prices meantime.
The cattle exported were principally
CRASHED cattle. in many cases but one
or two years old. The imports were
granted animals ready for slaughtering.
Practically all of the cattle imported,
other than those for breeding purposes.
are brought from Mexico. that country
having supplied in the fiscal year 19l3
391, ATT of the 400, 261 head imported Tor
other than breeding purposes. OF the
], 1888 imported for breeding purposes, free
Of duty, 945 were from England.
Imports of Cattle Increase.
Figures collected show that the exports
of beef ard beef cattle have fallen from
$44,OOO,OOO value in the eight months
ended August, 1904. to practically $1.OO.-
coo in the corresponding months of 1913.
and that the imports of cattle meantime
increased from 1851 in the eight months
of 1904 to 34O,1O5 in the same period of
1918. and their value from $1S1, Las in
1904 to 5000, 842 in 1918.
AS to the beef, the impOrtations In 1904
were insufficient to justify their state
ment month by month. and the total
value of beef imported for consumption
in the full fiscal year 1904 was but S14.-
922, while the single month OF July, 1913,
showed a total importation OF CESS
pounds, valued at $56. 99S; August total
of Isl, 626 pounds. valued at $S9. 2O4. and
September about an equal amount.
Decreases in price are shown both In
imported and exported cattle. Imports
of beef show remarkable gains within the
very recent period. In the fiscal year
1904 the quantity of beef imported Tor
consumption was 164. 500 pounds, valued
at s14.922, against 923.31S pounds. val
ued at $61, 40. in the fiscal year 1910, and
1885,. 100 pounds. valued at $3OS,SS4. in
1913: while in the single months OF July
and August the imports aggregated 642,
394 pounds and 1,151. 626 pounds. respec-
