Dr. Center told of the wound and
condition of the burns on the body OF
Miss Emma Kaempen, for whose muir
der Pfanschmidt is being tried. He
said the nose was broken and that the
feet and arms were partly burned off.
He stated that there was confusion
above the eye and that 1t extended to
the top of the head.
He testified that the cut above the
eye could produce death. The defense
objected to the use of the word elbow
in his testimony. He told Of blood
clot in the mouth and declared that
the body was dead before it was
burned.
The doctor stated that burning does
not cause bleeding in either live or
dead body. He also told Of blood on
the mattress and pillows.
The state succeeded in preventing
the defense from questioning DR.. Cen
ter about the body of Charles Pfan-
schmidt being cut or sawed to pieces,
but the defense can call the doctor as
a witness later and prove that the
fathers body was cut or sawed 20

MARK FOR BUTTER.
State Dairy Commissioner Will Ask

Used on Iowa
Product.
OTHER MINOR LAWS
Bill to Prohibit Using Of MIX Bot

Is Going to be
Asked.
OTHER MINOR LA

W. B. Barney, state dairy and food
commissioner, has prepared his legis-
lative programme and is ready to put
his plan before the general assembly
for strengthening the state pure food
laws. He claims that there are
enough laws regulating foods for the
present needs Of the state and that
practically all that is needed are
changes In the present measures.
Our main proposition for the gen
eral assembly At this session Is to
ask that state trade mark on but
ter be established" said Mr.. Barney.
1--WE are anxious to have an Iowa
brand OF butter authorized, with a
trade mark adopted by the legislature.
This trade mark We will permit firms
to use who make butter which is UP
to certain standard.

To Encourage palrymen.

~ encourage Ian yN10U.
1.-THE idea is to encourage the butter
makers to improve their product ana
as the result get better financial re-
suits from their business. Iowa but
ter sells little above the market
price in the east at the present time.
If the same rate Of improvement Is
shown in the next few years Iowa
butter will be known over the United
States as the best butter on the mar
ket.
1--WE are also after law which win
prohibit the use Of milk and cream
bottles for gasoline and kerosene. The
milk dealers have asked for the
change. 1t seems little thing. but
it really is important. When bottle
has been used for gasoline it is almost
impossible to get rid Of the smell ano
the taste. Not only that. but bottle
which, has been so used, when re-
turned to the dealer, is placed in a
tub Of boiling water, with other bot
ties, and the oil goes all through the
water and damages the other bottles
as well.

Editor Review: In reply TO
Chas. Anderson's attack on the
city council for spending money
on the roadway leading to the
plant of the Western Cooperage
Company. il might be well TO
consider that when this plant is
completed il will pay back in
the way of taxes each year a
considerable portion of the sum
spent on the roadway. to say
nothing of the local labor it will
employ. The more taxes receiv-
ed from this plant the less other
property owners will have 10
pay for the running expenses of
the city. While a legal point
may have been stretched in
building the roadway. yet the
benefit TO be derived from the
plant will more than Offset any
legal straining that may have
been done. In my opinion the
man who knocks at the money
paid out for the construction of
this roadway has not the well
fare and advancement of the
city at heart. The money spent
for the roadway is sure to re-
turn to the city many fold. G.
w. Munson.
