STRONG DEMAND FOR
ORE BY SHELTERS
ADVENT OF ANACONDA WILL
FURTHER STIMULATE SALT
LAKE ORE MARKET.

Smelling concerns here are very
active OF late in buying ores and
competition is keen. ore buyers and
mining engineers representing the
various smelters are active in the
field. and are seeking ore Of all
kinds. AS result Of these condi-
tons contracts are being offered. it
is said, on more favorable basis
than ever before, says the Salt Lake
Tribune.
The state of affairs is due in part
to the fact that the smelter capacity
is greater than ever before, and that
the low price Of metals has to some
extent reduced the ore output.
A local man who is close OBJ
server of the situation says some
new features may be expected in the
smelter situation here as a result of
the announcement that the Anaconda
Copper company proposes to take
over the International Smelling COM
panys business With the Amalga,

WORD OF ADVICE
TO MILK VENDORS

The following circular issued by
the State Pure Food Inspection de-
partment will furnish interesting
reading for keepers of restldra iis
and hotel keepers:
I'm our investigation of the milk
supply in various parts Of the state
we find ii is common custom with
keepers Of hotels, restaurants anu
lunch rooms, to serve to their GUS
toners milk that is adulterated by
watering, or taking part OF the
cream from the same. We also find
that many restaurant keepers order
separated milk from wholesale milk
dealers for cooking purposes, out it
is quite evident that a portion is
used for the table or lunch counter.
The practice is fraud perpetrated
on the travelling public, and others
taking meals in public places, and
the effect Of selling such impure
milk or milk of such inferior quality.
must be to create a prejudice against
this most useful and wholesome Of
all foods. and is a violation Of
the state food law, which pro
hibits the extraction in whole
or in part of any valuable in-
gredient from any article Of food,
and provides a penalty Of not less
than $25, nor more than. $500, or
/ Imprisonment in the county Jail for
period of not exceeding six months.
or both such fine and imprisonment
i in the discretion of the court, for
violation of the statute.
1T is thus clearly seen that no
one may sell milk from which all or
a portion of the cream has been
taken, unless he notifies the pur.
chaser that the same is skim milk.
keepers of hotels, restaurants and
lunch counters, where milk is served
are as clearly sellers of milk as are
those who sell milk from wagon
on the streets
1--WE shall continue TO take sam
pies from any and all such places
from time to time, and this depart
ment will report TO the board O
control of the Nevada Agricultural
Experiment station for prosecution
any one selling illegal milk or cream
anywhere in the state"

No Profit IN Profesaional Crima.

No less an authority than holy writ tells us
that the wages Of sin Is death" newspaper
feature writer puts the point Of the low wage OF
wrong-doing in the pungent term that "The
devil is the meanest boss and the cheapest pay
In the world" This is said Introductory to
illustrating the exceedingly small percentage
OF robbers who make even so much from their
criminal occupation as the ordinary day Iaborer
receives for his humble, but honest toll
The wages OF sin" are indeed "astound-
ingly SMALL" and n the men who go into law
breaking as business--the porch climbers.
footpads. robbers highwaymen--could only be
reasoned with from no higher level than that OF
the emoluments from the trade they might then
be convinced Of the wisdom OF making another
business selection Experts tell us that peniten-
tiary records show the scantest minority Of such
criminals who even make day labor wages II
has undoubtedly often occurred 10 the average
person that the man who undertakes a liyeli-
hood BY house-robbery, for example, Is not only
taking every chance In the world on his life, but
exhibiting the poorest sort OF business acumen.
For in the great majority OF cases. the swaR Is
rifiing. Even where II Is large. the crook has
an additional task on his hands TO convert n into
cash. Indeed, this is often greater and more
hazardous job than the original robbery
But NC imagine expert opinion would be that
the majority OF those engaging In criminal pur.
suits are aetuated BY some other instinct than
that merely Of easy money" Perhaps n 1,
we're otherwise. 4 might not be 50 hard Ia

State University Policy.

Although going to too great length and de-
tail for popular reading the published letter
accompanying the resignation Of President
Allen OF the board of regents OF the University
OF Nebraska reviewing the past work of that
institution, and outlining his view OF what
should be It's future course. raises the whole
question OF university policy. Mr.. Allen is
eminently correct in his conclusion that the
university, maintained as the capstone of its
public school system by q state like Nebraska
cannot properly lay stress on student numbers.
the extent of campus and buildings q
iimltless curriculum. but must work out definite
boundaries for It's activities, and make the
quality and character OF its work count most,
What our Nebraska State university must
aim at Is to make itself serviceable to the
people Of this state, rather than the people
OF Texas, or Canada. or South America. or
Japan. Nebraska will continue to contribute to
the student bodies OF other great universities
that have exceptional attractions or offer train
Ing in special fields. but the student who wants
a good practical all around education that will
fit him for the usual demands Of citizenship in
the community from which he has come should
be best accommodated in our own university.
The fact that Nebraska is an agricultural
state. and has mines or minerals, that its
cities and town are OF moderate size and mod
eat pretensons. and that 1t has comparatively
little concentrated wealth. must not be over
looked. In this connection IT is interesting to
note that Columbia university. located in New
York City, Ia disposing OF It's experimental farm
and Withdrawing It's instruction In practical
farming, realizing that It is and must Of neces-
sity be city university, BY contrast Nebraska
should develop and accentuate its agricultural
college, and should not hesitate to draw the line
against a subject that be more appropriately
taught elsewhere.
The next four years will see the University
OF Nebraska newly housed. and almost COM
pietely rebuilt and while It is in this transition
state, the chart should be drawn by which its
further progress is to be guided

ST. Louis Times
In support OF this view, the Times calls on
the people OF the United States to pay less at
tention TO the war; TO turn away from 1t and
to the more important task Of beginning In
earnest ito fight our own constructive, indus
trial battles" made possible in some degree by
the forces OF destruction at work abroad
Undoubtedly we have been too much absorbed
in the war and yet It is the great, overshadowing
world event and we cannot expect to get en-
tirely away from Il. We can, however and must
exert a much better effort toward the restora-
ton OF confidence In our own affairs; toward
selling full advantage Of All the opportunities
and demands arising to us out or the deplor-
able situation in Europe. To quote the Times
again: "The Americans, who are at peace. must
get down TO the task of supplying the lack In
products and labor which has come about, and
which must come about in an increasing meas
ure, as a result of the Industrial inactivity OF
millions OF men across the sea-"
In this connection the little motto now con-
spicuous in many places, Talk Business Not
War" Is not only excellent advice but evidence
OF the fact that some OF US have already buckled
down to this task. It lie not necessary to believe
with the St Louis paper that Europe will con-
tinue for years in a state OF war to see the i'm
portance Of complete restoration OF self-assur-
ance and with that the cooperation of all the I'm
dustriaI energies and forces Of the country.
