The 1924 appropriation for work on

interior country, who are without ade-
quate transportation facilities.
News of the action at the Spokane
conference will fall on most welcome
ears, and particularly will the ranch

Action of the government officials

MEDICINE AS BOOZE

Whether a certain kind of patent
medicine is an intoxicating liquor
must be determined by a court in
Oregon. A man was arrested and
fined for unlawful possession Of L.
quor, but commended that he did NOT
have booze, but patent medicine, sale
of which is permitted by law. He has
appealed. 1t will be interesting to
note the outcome of the case, but the
question of much more interest to
many is the name of the particular
patent medicine that will cause an
spree.
