Crudities of the Bill.

The bill is full of crudities. and on
its face betrays a total lack of knowl-
edge OF the subject with which 1t pur-
ports to deal Many of them it is un-
necessary to consider. The most strik-
ing Inconsistency is that fixing the
charge for the auditors services. 1t
proposes to. pay him at the rate of
about $40 day and charge the liti-
gants at the rate of $40. The liti-
giant Is to get the services of a man
worth but $40 to him, but worth $50
to the government or taxpayer. If he
is worth but $40 to the litigant, then
ne Is worth no more in salary and is
worth just as much as a deputy regis
ter or recorder. as before stated. The
Htigant will get little work and the
court little assistance, from subordin-
ates, while the incumbent will get a
slnecure; or the court will get its
proper assistance from special masters
for whom the litigant will pay GER
talnly as much: and the incumbent will
still get a sinecure.
If on the other hand it be said that
the purpose of the bill is to charge
Hugants at the rate Of SO much per
day or SO much per minute, the book

records of time and of continuances, of

EGGS MAY BE CHEAPER
IF WEATHER KEEPS MILD
Becoming Plentiful Now and In
creased Supply Il Causing
Drop In Prices.

IF the housekeepers of Washington
will use their influence with the
to prevent the coming of
heavy SHOWS and very cold weather it
is probable that eggs will be selling at
s5 cents a dozen between now and the
first week in February"
This is the way a leading egg dealer
of the city summed up the egg market
this morning. Eggs are be-
coming plentiful. and with the increase
in supply prices are dropping rapidly.
Following the drop Of cents in the
retail market yesterday. a further drop
was made this morning, and while some
few OF the dealers who handle eggs
warm from under the hen were asking
so and IS cents a dozen for them. a
majority Of the dealers were asking
from 40 to As cents a dozen for eggs

the other details of Office WORK, which
now require two clerks, cannot pos
sibly be done by the one clerk provid-
ed by the bill, assuming the assistant
to be doing the auditors work and not
purely clerical work.
In Accord With Universal Practice.
I'm conclusion, I submit that the
system in vogue in this jurisdiction is
in conformity with the universal prac-
tice of the judiciary; that it has stood
the practical test of a long experience;
that it has proven satisfactory to the
court and to the community: that there
has been no just criticism of the con-
duct Of the office, and that the litigants
(the people) are opposed to change.
Why, then. arbitrarily experiment with
a new and unheard-of system proposed
by persons indulging in a personal at
tack on the present incumbent in q
spirit of revenge, because in the proper
discharge of his duties his decisions
were adverse to their interests. To per-
nit the fruition of the attack Of those
persons on the auditor would be to
retrograde in good government and re-.
feet on good citizenship"

Auditors Hours of Work.

But there is a third point Of view
from which the litigant will undoubt-
edly suffer. The work of the auditor
being personal in it's nature. and not
done by clerks, he is paid at a reason
able rate for the time he actually de-
votes to his work. From the report of
the auditor to the judges last winter
it appears that the amount of work
which he has done is enormous. In four
years he shows that he actually accom-
plished five years work. He kept the
office up to date and disposed of $4,000
worth of business left by his prede-
cessor. This necessitated his working
nights, Sundays and holidays, and de-
prived him of all vacations. On the
average he worked from ten to twelve
hours a day. The bill now proposed
gives to the litigant six and one-half
hours a day. the hours being from to
4. with presumably a half hour at least
for lunch. If it takes the auditor now,
with the same force. eight or more
hours a day to do the work of the Of
fee is not the work going to be con-
gested? Is the 1itigant going to get
prompt service as he gets now? l dare
say not. What will be the result? The
bill does not take away from the court
it's power to appoint special masters.
and the result will be the reference of
cases to special masters. for which the

Lost Revenue Under Bill.

THAT connected with matters before
him would be lost revenue under the
bill unless charged to the litigants, and
if he were consulted about matters not
before the court the person so consult
ing him would have to pay for his ad-
vice. So that litigants or prospective
litigants would be called upon to pay
something where they pay nothing
now, and in the case Of postponement
of hearing would be called upon to pay
for all the lost time, often many days
in large case, at the rate Of $40 per
day for the auditors time, which they
do not get.
again we are all familiar with the
practice of fee offices where money is
raised to pay salaries and provide a
surplus for the Treasury. The law is
construed most favorably to the office.
and litigants would likely be confront
ed under this bill with a fee of SO per
session, calling the session day,
which might last fifteen minutes, in
stead of paying as now at the rate of
IS per hour. So that from this point
of view the litigant will probably not
benefit by the change, and the new
system in the aggregate will cost him
as much as, if nos more than, the pres

GIVING CHICKENS SKIM MILK
More Eggs Produced Than From
Fowls Given Grain Ration Supple
mented With Meat Scraps.

According to a general opinion of
many who have given the matter
much attention, the value of skim
milk to laying hens is from 70 cents
to $2.15 per hundred pounds. The latter
figure is evidently little optimistic.
According to experiments conducted
by the Indiana experiment station,
$1.73 was returned per hundred
pounds of skim milk purchased at 80
cents. These experiments covered
period of two years; one pen of laying
hens received corn, wheat, oats, bran
and shorts in the same proportion, in
addition to all the skim milk the fowls
would drink, and another pen received
only the grain portion of the ration
that the former received. In averaging
the results obtained from feeding
these rations through two years of ex-
periments it has been shown that the
average number of eggs laid per hen
receiving grain and skim milk was
1885 eggs, whereas the hens that did
not receive skim milk with the grain
ration produced an average of only SO
eggs per hen. 1t was also shown that
during the winter months, December,
January and February, when eggs are
the highest in price, that the pen re-
ceiving skim milk produced seven per
cent more eggs even than the pen re-
ceiving a grain ration supplemented
with meat scraps, feed generally
recognized as great egg producer.

NO WAR TAX ON
CANADIAN LANDS
UntruthfuI Reports Circulated by
Interested Parties.

Defaming q neighbor at the expense
Of the truth does not help those who are
guilty of the practice, and it may be
said that those spreading false re-
ports about Canadian lands, in the
hope that they may secure customers
for their own, will certainly fail of
their purpose. False statements SO
maliciously circulated will sooner or
later be disproved. And, as in the
casecof- the lands of Western Canada,
the fertility of which is now so well
known to people of every state in the
United States, the folly of this work
shows an exceeding short sighted
ness on the part of those guilty OF the
practice.
The present war has given some of
these people the opportunity to exer.
else their art, but in doing it they are
only arousing the curiosity of those
who read the statements and trifiing
investigation will only reveal their un-
truthfulness.
A very foolish statement has re-

ton has been received that the tax
will amount to about $500 for each
farm of 100 acres, which in the case

to confiscation."

Canada, only to bring out the most en-
phatic denial. A full-fiedged lie of this
kind has, of course, only short life,
and will tell in the end against those
who forge it and spread 1t, but, as
Winnipeg paper points out, it is most
complimentary to the agricultural pos
sibilities of Western Canada to find
that rival farming propositions need
audacious mendacity of this descrip-
ton to help them.
What is the truth? The Saskatche-
wan Government has authorized levy
Of $40 per quarter section on unculti-
waited lands owned by non-residents.
The Alberta Government has imposed
Provincial tax Of 10 mills on the as
sessed value of all uncultivated lands.
There are some special applications of
these taxes, but the main provisions
are as above. Those vacant lands
held by non-residents in Western Can
ada form a grave problem. They are
making for poor communities, poor
schools and poor social and economic
conditions generally. By having them
cultivated the owners as we'll as the
districts in which they are located
will benefit alike. It is for this reason
that the Government has recently
asked the cooperation of the non-resi-
dents. The high price of grain for
some years to come, and the general
splendid character of Western Canada
land will make the question well
worth Observation-Disclosures.

Preventing Premature RurlaIs.

The fear of being buried alive al
ways has been, and is, so widespread
that the French Academy of Science
some years ago offered a prize equal
to $500 for the discovery of some
means by which even the inexperi-
enced might at once determine wheth-
er, in given case, death had ensued
or not. A physician obtained the
prize. He had observed the following
well-known signs: If the hand of the
suspected dead person is held towards
a candle or other artificial light, with
the fingers extended and one touching
the other, and one looks through the
spaces between the fingers towards
the light, there appears scarlet red
color where the fingers touch each
other, due to the blood still circulat-
ing; it shows itself through the It's
sues which have not yet congested.
When life is entirely extinct, the phe-
nomenon of scarlet spaces between
the fingers at once ceases. The most
extensive and thorough trials estab-
lished the truth Of his observation.
