SPROUTS OF ALFALFA
MAKE DANDY GREENS

Young tender sprouts of alfalfa
make good greens. This is the answer
of staff women of the cookery section
of the home economics division, Uni
versity of Minnesota, to an lnquirIng
correspondent, who asked also for in
structions for cooking the plant if
the question was answered in the af-
firmative.
1--WE experimental with alfalfa
plants of different ages-tender
sprouts, some little farther along
and some still a little Older" says
Alice Child of University Farm. "We
cooked them after our method of
cooking spinach. The tender srouts
made very delicious green for the
table. The stems of the other sam
Piles were rather woody, but we found
that the leaves could be used to ad-
vantage"
To cook alfalfa for greens Miss
Child says cup of boiling water
should be poured over kettle of the
young sprouts. Add teaspoon of
salt and cook with kettle uncovered
from % TO so minutes. Then drain,
season with butter, and serve hot.
The green color is retained if the
kettle is left uncovered while the ell
falfa is being cooked.

PHYSICIAN HELD
ON CHARGE OF
WIFI

DETROIT, Mich, Feb. "a P)-Dr
Frank R. Loomis was held at police
headquarters tonight on suspicion
of first degree murder after de,
tectives announced they had discov,
cred three apparent discrepancies IN
his story of the finding of the body
dubbed to death in their home las,
night.
Paul o. Buckley, an assistan:
prosecuting attorney said he would
not ask warrant until the case
had been investigated further.
Blood spattered on the pnysis
clans overcoat and hat when he
went to headquarters last night to
notify officers was explained then,
officers said. by DR.. Loomis saying
he had stooDed over to see if his
wife We're alive. Today, however,
police said he changed his story
and denied he touched the body be-
cause he knew it was proper to
await the arrival of police ana the
coroner nJ4aA
Later in the day when confronted
by the finding of blood on the
lining of his shirt sleeve, he again
changed his story, detectives said
and stated he started to pick up the
body and then placed it back on the
floor.
Investigators found the woman's
glasses, blood stained, on a table i'll
a sun room where the body was
found. Coarse strands of hair ap-
parently from a mans head were
clinging to the glasses.
Officers also were checking the
physicians story of his movements
last night His version was tina,
he had talked with his wife a few
minutes after returning from his
office handed her $1OO for the pur-
chase of some clothing, and then
had gone for a walk of about two
miles
Today he changed his story of the
route he had taken, and reduced
the distance to about five blocks.
The physician placed the time Of
the death of his wife some time
after o'clock, but coroner's ply
sician today said it apparently was
about two hours earlier.

.N.Y.LECISLATURE
ARGUES POISON
LIQUOR PROBLEM

ALBANY, n Y, Feb "a P)-The
poison liquor problem held attention
in the state assembly today with
Louis A. Cuvillier, determined pro.
hibition opponent from New York,
pitted in debate against Edmund b.
jerks, veteran dry crusader from
Broome county. The verbal tilt de.
veloped over Mr., jerks bill report
ed out of committee yesterday, to
make the sale of poison liquor re-
sulting in death first degree man
slaughter and to class as a felony
the re-disti1lation of denatured
ethyl alcohol and the sale of lrduor
ter whether it results in death.
Mr.. Cuvillier declared today that,
i'll effect the measure proposed a
new state enforcement law. He pre-,
dicted that if the bill were enacted
it would bring about a state of
civil war in the state.
At this point, Mr.. jerks interrupt
ed: Il believe" he said, that you
memorial to congress asking that
something be done to stop the pois-
onino Of alcohol. Were you sincere
IN your vote, dHu 10 you really WANT
to prevent people from being pois-
oned?"
"I am against the government
deliberately poisoning anything to be
sold and drunk, either legally or
Illegally" Mr.. Cuvillier announced
'This is stronger than the Mullen
Gage act Estate enforcement law
which was repealed, ever dared to
be, and l think it is gesture, pure
and simple
"The state of New York has de-
cided by enactment of a bill by a
republican legislature, signed by q
democratic governor that we don't
want anything to do with enforce
ment of the 18th amendment. And
again last election by an overwhelm
ing majority, voting on a question
proposed by republican legisla
ture, the people decided that they
want the right to decide for them
selves what constitutes intoxicating
liquors."
Mr.. Culvillier objected TO the ad-
vancement of the bill to the order
CT final reading and as a quorum
was not present Mr.. jerks could not
press for immediate action.

OIL
OPERATORS CUT
ON PRODUCTION

TULSA, Okla. Feb. "a R.-Drastic
steps were taken today by oil operators
in the most productive field in the mid
continent area to curtail the output
until pipe lines and storage tanks could
take care of the flow. A partial shut
down of 80 days was agreed upon un-
animously. Since the first of the year
production in the Seminole field, near
here, had increased steadily until last
week it was nearly one fourth of the
total for the mid-continent district.
Pipe line companies rushed their
work to completion, but with more
than score of wells coming in weekly
they We're unable to cope with the stu
alton, and workmen could not build
tanks fast enough to store the surplus.
Recently it was necessary to run large
quantities of oil out on the ground.
Reductions in the price of crude oil,
ranging from Is to SO cents barrel,
were attributed by oil men solely to
the growth of the Seminole field.
The oil men agreed today that dur
ing the period of overproduetion, not
exceeding 80 days from this date no
operators shall be permitted to com
plete and put to production more than
one well on each 40-acre tract
Drilling of other wells on each tract.
is to be stopped above oil sand. Each
operator will be required to furnish
storage for at least one third Of his
production. Ray Collins, of the Echo
Oil company, who was reappointed
umpire of the district, was given
authority to order each producer to
reduce his output 10 per cent should
the production again become so great
that the oil is permitted to run on to
the ground or into earthen storage.
An analysis of the agreement, oper-
ators said, Indicates that it is mean
ingless unless Mr. Collins exercises his
authority to reduce the flow of the big
producers.
Curtailing of the flow of the present
producing wells will be resorted to
only as a last resort, since operators
attending todays session of the COM
mittee declared that harmful effects
resulted from the shutdown last No
vember.
