THE NEW EGG LAW,

The poultrymen of the state are to
be congratulated upon now having a
law that will curb the INSCRIPTIONS
dealer in eggs. The law recently
passed by the legislature requiring
that all storage" preserved" or
foreign" eggs be sold as such and
making deception in the selling of
them a misdemeanor will have a far
reaching effect and, we believe, do
much good. Both producers and
consumers have suffered much from
the man who sells storage or Chinese
eggs for fresh ranch" and often,
too, the retailer has been imposed
upon and deceived by the commission
merchants and cold storage men.
The law provides that all storage"
or preserved" eggs shall be sold
from containers or receptacles that
are branded in readable letters not
less than one inch high and that all
foreign" eggs shall be sold from
containers branded in letters not less
than two inches high and in addi-
ton the retailer must inform pur-

BETTER MARKET FOR HOGS.
High Grain Prices Forced Many to
Unload-Supply Low Now.

The Northwestern hog raiser Is
about to come back into his own, ac-
|cording to government agricultural
officials-in fact the hog market
throughout the United States Is about
to undergo a great change for the
better. Hogs are getting scarce; the
high price of grain caused hundreds
OF hog raisers to unload their stock
and in order that they could take
advantage of high grain prices. The
result has been a great general clean
up of the hog market and right to-
day packers Of the Puget Sound coun-
try have been compelled to ship hogs
from the Dakotas.
The best authorities on market
conditions declare that If the grow
ers of the Northwest will simply hold
on to the stock they have on hand,
raise more. increase their holdings
and place them in good market con-
dition, they will at once be in posi-
ton to dictate prices. The packers
will have to pay the price demanded
by the growers because they must
have the hogs in order to supply their
trade.

HERE'S A NUT FOR YOU TO
CRACK.


Stop lighting the European war
and consider the problem OF
Casey's COW. An Eastern contem-
porary has dug up the ancient
mathematical puzzle. which was
considered a hard proposition
years ago. Here 1t is:
Statement: Casey's cow was
standing on a railroad bridge
when all at once she became
aware of an approaching train.
The train was Just twice the length
Of the bridge away from the end,
and coming at q 90-mile clip. The
COW dashed toward the train and
saved herself by one foot, where
as II she had run the other way
she would have lost her race for
life by just three inches.
Find length of bridge. the
speed Of the cow and the point at
which she was standing on bridge.
This ought to be a simple mat
ter for some of the Thurston
county mathematician's to solve.

less no end of pollution of news and
editorial pages engineered from

Many Congressman Remain.
A | h u h congress adjourned
March 4, there are still many repre-
sentatives in Washington. 1t devel-
ops that most of them are from far
away states and are remaining here
in the hopes that they may finish all
of their business affairs with the de-
partments, as well as take care of
applicants for positions. There are
many hungry politicians still hang
ing on with grim hope and determi-
nation, and some have an idea that
Father Democracy will be in better
shape when he places their names on
the payroll.
Bryan and His Critics.
Just SO long as Secretary Bryan
continues to advocate temperance
just that long will he continue to be
a favorite mark for unfair criticism.
Bryan's friends point out that he
has spent more actual time in the
state department than any other sec
rotary for many years, and they
allege that he has actually been on
the job in Washington nearly twice
as much of the time as his immediate
predecessor.
Doctor Cook and the Pole.
One of the last matters brought
before congress revived the claims of
DR.. Frederick A. Cook and the con-
gressmen debated pro and con as to
whether Cook really discovered the
pole or was a mere faker. The doc
tor dropped into Washington and
there is evidence that he is still pros
porous, since he is still able to put
up at the best tavern" in the Capital
City. However, the Doctor and his
companions failed to secure any &C.
ton from congress.
The Rural Credits Body.
The joint congressional commits
sion to frame a rural credits bill and
report to congress at the opening Of
the next session, provided for in the
agricultural appropriation law, has
organized for the purpose of out
lining a plan of operation. The COM
mittee as made up so far consists of
Senators Owen, Gore, Hoke Smith
and Hollis, and Representatives
Glass, Virginia; Phelan, Massachu-

The total number of bills intro

comparatively few were enacted into

was to be an economical legislature
and that expenditures would be held
down to the lowest possible point.
The first move made by the house OF
representatives indicated that econ
practically all of the employees were
omy was not intended to apply to the
legislature itself, as the salaries of
increased above those paid at the
session two years ago. 1t was then
said that while the salaries were
higher, yet the number of employees
had been reduced, but as the days
passed 1t was seen that additional
employees were placed on the payroll.
The result is shown in the excessive
cost, which brought about the neces-
sity for the passage of second. or
deficiency appropriation bill to cover
the expenses of the legislature.
Were it possible for me, under
the constitution, to reduce the
amount appropriated by this bill I
would certainly do so, feeling that
many Of the items approved by the
legislature were, in some cases too
high and in others totally unneces-
sary.
lone of the last acts Of the legis-
lature was to make an appropriation
from this fund of $500 for the pur-
pose Of having the state auditor and
some of his employees take a trip to
the two California expositions to
check up the finances of the Wash
ington exposition commission. The
only basis upon which this resolution
was passed was the receipt OF tele-
gram from the person in charge OF
the San Diego building for the expo
sition commission. His work had
been criticized by a number OF visit
ors to the exposition; the commits
sion had visited San Diego and found
there was Just cause for criticism
and as a result of this trip of inspec-
ton. that individual had handed IN
his resignation to the commission

1.-The resolution passed proVio'ns
for this trip states that the report
made shall be presented to the gov
ernor. At each session OF the lesis-
lature an appropriation is made for
investigation purposes. This appro-
priation is one of those placed under
the governors department. II 1t had
seemed necessary to have this spe-
cial investigation there were ALREADY
