Scientific experiments have demon
strated that. contrary to the general
belief, the yellow color of cream and
butter is not necessarily an indication
Of their richness. 1t was discovered
long ago that most vegetable matter
contains yellow substance called
"carrotin" because it exists abundant
ly in carrots II is this substance
contained in the cows feed that gives
rise to the color of milk and butter
Carrotin is most abundant in the green
forage available in spring and summer
so that milk and butter produced then
are more yellow than in the winter. al
though the percentage of fat i'll winter
milk often is higher than i'll the rich
looking product obtained in summer.

Grayson. Utah, Feb. 22.-The man
hunt of United States Marshal Ne
beker of Salt Lake City and his force
of deputies for Use Ne Cat, head of
band of Piute Indian outlaws, cul-
minated yesterday in bloody battle
outside the town of Bluff, in the ex-
treme southeast corner of Utah on the
San Juan river.
The outcome of the battle is un-
known, for he Indians, reinforced by
a half-hundred supposedly peaeeable
members of their tribe, have cut the
telephone wires which are the only
means of communication with the lit
tie town.
Just before the wires were cut Ii
was reported that two Indians had
been killed and six taken prisoners,
and that one white man had lost his
life and two had been seriously
wounded Then came word that an
other force of Indians, under a chief
named Cosey, had crept up from the
rear and had surrounded the deputies.
Previous to this Use Ne Cat had sent
word to Marshal Nebeker that he and
his men would fight to the death eX-
pected no quarter and would give
none.
The last word that came over the
wire was that the Indians were sur
rounding the town of Bluff and that
a general massacre was feared. 1t
was also feared that the turning of
the attack of the Indians from the
