Gays Board saves Own cest.
Enecting an estimated saving of
100000 in court costs for litigated 90
cident cases. the industrial accident
board during the year Of 1914 has
more than returned its $4,000 appro-
priation to the state, says John w.
Champion. assistant secretary. in dis
cussing the report Of the boards ac-
tivities.
During the calendar year Of 1914"
says Mr.. Champion. the board re-
ceived reports Of sS,315 accidents OF
which approximately 10000 were OF
such q nature that those injured re-
ceived compensation as provided by
law. OF these $4,000 cases in which
compensation was payable, 773 cases
were litigated and formal proceedings
held before the board. II these 773
cases had been litigated in the courts.
1t is believed that 100000 would be
conservative estimate of their cost to
the people Of the state.
Practically all Of the legal proceed
ings arising out of injuries to Michi.
gan's working people are being han
died by the industrial accident board
and its staff," said Mr.. Champion.
Fifteen thousand employers of labor
in Michigan have voluntarily elected
to accept provisions of the compensa-
tion act. These employ more than
100000 men. women and children.
During 1914. 1857 agreements in
regard to compensation were exam
ined by the boards staff. During the
month Of September. 1915. receipts
show the payment of Sill 1.3S1.21; the
average amount of compensation paid
by employers to injured employees
each month is considerably over $780,.

Urge New Plan for state caoh.


With state officials-especially those
who have to do with the finances
pruning and shaving all expense ac-
counts, all bills payable and all claims
against the state. until they are thin
ner than the thin. under the present
financial depression in the state treas
ury. the inquisitive folk all over Michi-
gan are asking what's tho matter
with the SYSTEM"
Why is It that Michigan, usually
considered as good as gold. has to
turn down requests from its own in
stitutions for money; has to restrict
It's travelling men to mere salaries and
has to stave OF the payment of it's
just debts until the middle of Janu-
ary?"
Those questions are coming to the
officials from taxpayers all over the
state who want to know why It is that
while they are paying what they con-
slider high taxes, the state has to go
broke"
Auditor General Fuller, who has
q
when conditions were as bad. II not
worse. than they are now, says that
the entire system Of Michigan appro-
priations is wrong and should be
changed.
Our whole trouble lies in the fact
that the legislature appropriates
money and tells its recipients they
can have II long before the state gets
1t. The last session of the legislature
appropriated money for special pur-
poses and made those appropriations
available July l. AS IL supplied the
necessary authority for the .levying of
taxes to meet disbursements. the leg.
islature figured its work well done
But don't forget that the state will not
sec cent of money come in as taxes
until next January Is.
I'm the meantime the institutions
that are to receive that money cannot
be blamed for bounding me and for
bounding the state treasurer for those
appropriations. Their officials argue
rightly that the legislature made their
funds available July 1.
Il am not criticizing this last legis-
lature. Economy was it's watchword
and wisely, too. Every institution was
told plainly that no special appro-
priations would be given unless abso.
lutely necessary. All! we're cut down
to the bone. The institutional officials
thought that because they had kept
their demands low. they would t
their money right OF.
For months l have been writing
letters to officers of the various insti.
tutions that they could not get their
special appropriations until after taxes
began to come in. Yet they come back
and tell me that the money Is abso.
lutely necessary. They have new
buildings to put up to house people
during the winter months, ETC.. etc.
All OF this is true, but cannot help
them. Their only remedy is to change
the laws so that they would have the
money ready for them In July or else
know that they had no right to de-
mand II until later.
IF the great bulk OF appropriations
for special purposes could be made to
read This money not available un.
til Janrary 15 next all OF the troubles
like we now have would be ended
That Is what Jught to be done. and II
we are ever to quit this unbusiness
like method, will have to be DONE"

II Governor Ferris carries out plan
he has had in mind for several
months. a cure will be administered
in the state prisons to every. inmate
who has been addicted to the use of
alcohol or drugs.
Investigation by the governor and
the pardon board has furnished con-
elusive evidence that liquor and drugs
in a great many cases were responsi.
BILE for prisoners downfall. records of
the pardon board show that many men
who are paroled are returned as viola
tors because they had never been
cured of the drug or alcohol habit.
Governor Ferris says that men who
have been heavy drinkers for years or
habitual users of drugs should receive
medical treatment during the FIRST
year OF their Imprisonment.
Many nen placed on parole have
thought themselves cured simply be-
cause they had been unable to indulge
during their terms in prison. but once
on the outside they have been unable
to resist temptation.

TO IMPROVE STATE
BRAND OF BUTTER
MICHIGAN FOOD coMMls 'oNER
DECLARES MUCH SOLD Is BAD
QUALITY.
J. W. HELME ISSUES BULLETIN
Report Says Cold Storage Product Dc.
Gays RapIdIy-Laroe Quantity
Comes From the City
OF Chicago.

Lansing. From James w. Helme.
state dairy and food commissioners. has
come a bulletin on what, in the belief
of his Office. is the condition under
which butter is marketed in Michigan.
The bulletin in part Is as follows:
Where can get good butter?" asks
the housewife of Michigan. She sees
tub after tub of butter labeled "Elgin."
Creamery" Extras" ETC., and buys
some that In 4S hours has AZ cent?
meter odor.
Much good butter is made in Mich
igan. 1t is shipped to New York and
Philadelphia Much poor butter Is
made in Michigan. 1t is sold in Mich
igan because other states won't take
1t except at very low price and be-
cause the dealer can sell this butter
a cent or two cheaper than good but
ter.
Much butter now on sale in Mich
igan is creamery butter placed In cold
storage in Chicago last summer. Chi
cage NOW sells 1t at q cents and 1t
is retailed here at 81 cents. Cold stor-
age butter six months old Is not long
for this world after being taken out.
The last legislature authorized the
state dairy and food department to es-
tablish a state brand for butter. Be-
fore any creamery can sell butter un-
der the state brand, 1t must make a
grade of butter that will uniformly sell
in the New York market as Extras.
To bring this about our three expert
buttermakers visit a creamery and ed
ucate the buttermakers and farmers
how to obtain clean. healthful. uni
form product. BY January there will
be enough factories up to the stand
ard of Extras to put out the state
brand. This brand will guarantee ex-
ira quality. II factory lowers the
quality Of its product. the state brand
will be taken away"
