RULING ON HERON
CLEARED BY BOARD
state Authorities Order Druggists to
Register Sale of the
Druu.

The state board of pharmacy has not
prohibited druggists from selling hero
in or opium, as has been reported err
roneously. 1t has issued an order that
sales of heroin must be recorded in
the druggists poison register and has
warned druggists that Illegal sales
will be prosecuted. To make clear its
position on this and the proposition
of the sale of liquors, the board has
issued the following statement:
The state board of pharmacy de-
sires to call the attention of pharma-
cists over the state to the alarming
misuse Of heroin, and to ruling
which has been adopted requiring its
sale to be recorded in the poison
register Git being deriyatiye of NOR
phine) and for them to use the utmost
caution in its sale for legitimate pur-
poses only. The board would also re-
mind the pharmacists that all illegal
sales of either cocaine or heroin will
be prosecuted and for repeated viola
ton, their certificates of registration
will be revoked.
The board Of pharmacy. after con
ferring with Attorney General Cosson
as to how much intoxicating liquors
a pharmacist not a permit holder
would have the right to carry in stock
it was thought best not to rule upon
this point, as the conditions vary So
much in different stores and localities,
but it was decided that they would
have the right to keep small amount
in stock for the legitimate uses of com
pounding only.
The board will in no way defend
the keeping in stock of an amount that
would be construed that the liquors
might be for sale other than for
pharmaceutical purposes"

Iowa State Dairy Association Has Ar
ranged for a TWO Car Special
over the Southern
Branches.
TO VISIT LEE COUNTY
Special Will be Under the Manage.
ment Of s. E. Estel and j. 3. Lam
son, Latter 90" Az
HcuIturlst.

The Iowa State Dairy association
has completed arrangements with
the Burlington to operate a special
dairy train of two cars over the
branches of the road in southern
Iowa. The tour will start February 9
from Brighton and continue until
March l.
The train will be under the direct
supervision of e. S. Estel, state dairy
expert, and ]. B. Lamson, agTicultur
list for the railroad. The special will
differ from those conducted in previ-
GUS years, in that the communities
will cooperate to greater extent in
the meetings. Stops will only be
made at towns where local interest is
manifested, and the citizens OF the
town and the farmers of the surround
ing country agree to advertise, ex-
hibit cattle and assist in making the
meetings large and successful.
The Burlington railroad has operat-
ed two special dairy trains for the
Iowa State Dairy association in this
same territory. These have accom-
plished great deal, and have Gre
ated a demand for more thorough in
| formation along lines OF dairying and
| intensive farming. 1t is to meet this
! demand that the Iowa State Dairy
other dairy interests OF the state, has
determined to carry on this new kind
of campaign.
i Exhibits of the various kinds of
| feeds, barn equipment and silos will
| be carried in an exhibit car. These
will be more extensive than on previ-
GUS trains, and will be designed to
give the beginner practical illustra-
| lions of inexpensive equipment for the
small dairy farm. In addition, the
usual dairy COW demonstrations viii
I. be given, and specimens of dairy ami
mails will be carried in baggage car
equipped as model dairy barn.
ALL meetings will be held at town
halls. This arrangement will enable
the lecturers to talk to the entire audi
] ence at once and therefore give more
/ information in the same length OF
1
the city and rural school children
with the idea of encouraging them to
! live on the farm. The boys of each
community will be given an opportun-
ity to enter dairy record contest
The latter will be based upon records
of the production of milk and fat in
the herd three months from the date
on which the train passes through
each respective town. Prizes fol-
these contests will be given by loca
merchants and business men,
In addition, an effort will be made
to have small dairy show of the
cattle in each community. These ami
mails will be scored and the owners
advised as to how their herds may be
practically improved by breeding ant
testing.

keeps going. In short, that lowered
freight rates inevitably mean lowered
efficiency and a corresponding de-
crease in general trade.
The actual facts are surprising;
here are few:
Every item of expense attached to
freight handling has gone up, while
the rate per ton per mile has gone
down.
The cost of carrying pair of shoes
between Chicago and Boston is two
and two-fifths cents.
The cost of carrying a saw one
thousand miles Is one ano three
tenths cents.
Railroads now carry coffee pot
one thousand miles for three-fourths
of cent.
1t is easy to figure how little the
suggested advance of 5 per cent
would amount to on saw, coffee
pot or pair o. shoes 1t is an In
crease which in any one item would
be insignificant. Yet 1t is needed by
the railroads to aid In meeting their
increased expenses.
Small as it is. it would be of ma
terial assistance to the railroads in
their efforts to conserve the wide in
terest of the public and continue to
maintain their position as leading fac.
