Anoer's Poison.

Biologists have proved, by laboratory
tests. that anger is a poison in the
blood; that a person who loses his
temper is actually selfpoisoned. Take
few drops of blood from man in Il
violent rage, they tell US; drop them
on the tongue of a guinea. pig, and it
will probably make the little beast sick
Yet we hear people brag, Il gave him
a good going over" Il got good and
mad" as L one Dragged of deliberately
contracting a dangerous case of blood
poisoning.

Probes Process of Bleaching Flour

Madison, June 1.-THE state dairy
and food department has started in
vsestigation of mills bleaching flour by
electricity, said Commissioner George
]. Weigle. The law prohibits bleach
ing by chemical means and analyses
are being made to ascertain whether
electrical bleaching reacts chemically
on flour. If this be true, electric
bleaching can be prosecuted under the
present law. Analyses also are being
conducted in behalf of grist mill pa
irons to learn if mill owners are hold
ing out wheat or flour from them.
Wheat is analysed as to flour and by
product contents and the ratio COM
pared with returns based on amount
of wheat delivered.

TO THE FARMERS OF ARKANSAS

The writer desires again to call the attention of the farmers to the work of the State Department of Agricul- ture and the federal government to blot out fraud in short weights and misbranded feeds and fertilizers. The federal and state inspectors work in cooperation in protecting the people. The federal inspectors turn their att tention especially to interstate ship ments.
 A few manufacturers have been shipping commercial feedstuffs and fertilizers into this state and placing same on the market for 100 pounds to the bag when it only weighed S5, 90 or 95 pounds to the bag. Others have fallen short of their analysis. The result has been the condemning of feeds and fertilizers, the cancelling of registrations of manufacturers and the withholding of feed and fertilizers for sale, etc. Therefore, many local

COMPETITION IN COTTON

When peace becomes an accom- plished fact keen competition in the buying of American cotton may be ex- pected. For five years the producers have been more anxious to sell than the consumers to buy. But in the near future these conditions are to be reversed. The consuming world is bare of cotton, clothing is scarce and shelves are bare of fabrics. The con- sumers now must seek the vendors, and thus will begin to compete with one another, to the advantage of the holder of cotton. The intensity of the competition will depend upon the acuteness of the need and the small ness of the supply. These conditions are such as to suggest higher values for the staple.
 One must not be disappointed if great quantities of cotton do not begin to move the day the embargoes are lifted. Financial and other difficulties yet remain to be arranged. It is not yet certain whether the view taken by some of the government officials, that the embargoes will be lifted as soon as Germany has ratified the treaty, is correct. The terms of the Espionage Act might be taken to mean that trad ing with Germany must wait the treaty ratification by the United States Senate. However, it is certain that all restrictions will in time be re- moved and all the markets of the world open to our cotton.
 What then? It is useless to predict how much cotton the Teutonic powers will take this coming year. But we know how much they formerly con- sumed. We all know also that the life of those peoples depends upon their betting to work. The allied powers also are interested in their in- dustry, not because of any especial fondness for them, but because pay ment of the reparation bill can only come through their earnings. They have selfish interest in seeing that Germany is supplied with cotton, cop

per, food and other necessities. and will not be as shortsighted as the Pharaoh who refused straw to them that made bricks for him.
 Recall the Mother Goose jingle of Old Mother Hubbard if you wish to know how much cotton Germany now has. The same holds good for other raw materials. Mills cannot run on hand-to-mouth basis. Restocking demands, therefore, will be heavy. Other nations also will beanxious to get to work. A Manchester authority says 1920 will be record year for the British cotton industry. Ever busy Japan, and other spinners. must get into line if they would hold their positions, and to do this, the first thing necessary is to buy raw cotton In such circumstances, men who want cotton will seek the ones who have it
 And those who have it now lool over the crop forecast. What nature Will do to the new crop is matter of mere guess. The present outlook however, IS bad, and four small crops have preceded this one. The need ;s great; the prospective crop is small ana growers will not push cotton for sale. The situation, therefore, must make the purchasers competitors among themselves.

dealers have been inconvenienced for failure upon their part to make it a part of their contract that the feed and fertilizer manufacturers meet the requirements of the law. Short weight and low analysis are outright forms of stealing.
 Before purchasing your next sup ply of commercial feedstuffs and fer tilizers, place the bag on the scale and notice the weight. If you find irregu- larities, report the same to this office. The State Department of Agriculture and federal authorities seek to pro- tect the farmers, honest dealers and manufacturers against dishonest com petition. We most earnestly seek your cooperation.

.H|CHCRADf STRIKE
IN LEWIS CANYON

One of those unaccountable pieces
of mining luck with which the his
tory of the industry is replete. where
one fellow, after much hard work,
quits just before the prize is reached
and another reaps the fruit of his
labor, appeared yesterday morning In
sews from Lewis canyon, about eigh-
teen miles south of Battle Mountain.
The Battle Mountain Mines Company.
working over considerable period
of time. had run 1000 feet of tunnel
on its prospect, which it finally aban-
doned, week before last, offering its
equipment for sale and disposing of
a portion of it.
Seven leasers took a chance on the
prospect, and last week they struck
al orebody twenty-four feet wide
assaying SAG ton silver. They have
three feet of high grade, seven inches
OF which runs $50 ounces of silver.
Ore is being sacked for shipment.
The names of the fortunate leasers
are announced as G. l.. Bryson and
associates, e. A. Sands and William
Sutton.
Hilltop mine, above Battle Noun
tain, is reported to be shipping ore
regularly.

THREAT TO CLOSE
ALL UTAH MINES

A press dispatch of yesterday de-
clares that circular has been issued
ty metal mine operators of that state
giving notice that unless there is an
immediate reduction of approximate
ly 20 per cent in the cost of necessi-
ties of life, all the mines and smelt-
ers in Utah will close. The circular
is addressed particularly to merch-
ants in Utah mining camps. 1t was
prepared by a committee recently
arpointed by the operators, and is
based on investigations of living cost
in metal-producing communities.
The circular points out that prices
o. mining supplies and necesaries of
life have remained as high as they
were in July, 1918, Notwithstanding
the fact that the price of copper has
declined since the signing of the
armistice from 26 to Is cents pound.
and that of lead from $8.05 to s5.25
per 100 pounds, necessitating reduc-
tions in wages and reductions in
mining profits.

SOLDIERS have TO
READ THEIR SHIRTS

A letter was received in Winnie
mucca yesterday from Corporal ]. p.
Goodwin. Battery c, 34Sth Field Ar
tillery, in which he says his outfit
expected to sail for home March Is.
The writer had no information as to
where demobolization would take
place. but thought he might reach
Winnemucca about the middle of
April. There are several local boys
In the 348th. Goodwin says: II ran
on to fellow yesterday that I used
to go to school with, and was much
surprised. He is the only one l have
ever run into from home" He neg
lected to give the name of his friend.
The 348th arrived "over there" too
late to take part in any fighting. but
was sent to Germany on occupation
duty. Goodwin, writing from Brest,
says: I'VE left Germany on the 11th
OF February and arrived here the
following Sunday. 1t was a long,
tiresome ride-forty of us in a box
car. This place is just like all the
rest over here, only little wetter."
He says one job they have every
night is reading their shirts" And
he will be glad to get home.

Mind YOUR CLOCK

Another hour is to be added to day

much excitement will attend the pro-
gram of setting clocks ahead an hour
at retiring time next Saturday night
as was experienced year ago. This
program is the law of the land now.
Set your clock ahead one hour the
last Saturday night in March, and set
1t back one hour the last Saturday
night in October. The change of time

process generally proves painless to a
great majority of people. Some, un-
fortunately, will continue to howl all

LEGISLATORS HAD READ TOO
MUCH CONGRESSIONAL NEWS

There can be but one explanation
for the extravaganza of the lawmak-
ers, declares the Elko Free Press.
They had been reading too much
about what Congress had done since
the war started in spending the peo-
pies money, and had lost the sense of
values in figures. A thousand dol
lars sounded to them less than one
hundred dollars did to previous legis-
lators. Any State employe or official
had only to ask for an increase in
salary to get it. Any bill that had
attached to it an appropriation was
rut through, while other meritorious
measures were killed.
