Dairymen Planning Campaign.
Dairymen of the state are planning
to Inaugurate a campaign at tho statu
meeting of organized agriculture look
ing to the separation of the dairy com
mission from tho administrative side
of the stato government and placing
It with tho stato farm dairy Interests,
there to come under the charge of the
regents of tho stato university. Other
dairymen nro preparing to fight the ac
tion on tho 'ground that the practical
and theoretical work cannot bo com
bined from a business stand point and
that tho board of regents, which Is
given no power to enforro laws, would
bo continually hampered In perform
ing tho duties now outlined for tho
state dairy commission. Tho point la
also to bo made that tho commission,
even If It were possible to operate It
under tho university management,
would not bo nblo to get the money
that it does undor present conditions.
Opinions on Selling Schemes.
Raffling of houses and lots under
the old scheme of selling hundreds
and hundreds of numbers at low
prices, or at any prlco for that mat
ter, Is not permitted under the stato
lottery law, according to an informal
opinion given a citizen by the state
legal department. Neither can tho
right of a storekeeper to sell a cer
tain nmount of specially priced goods
to each customer bo denied. Tho lat
ter question nroso when some No
braskan objected to n merchant re
stricted him' to tho purchase of six
oars of soap for a quarter. Tho soap,
which originally sells at throo bars for
a quarter, was a bargain at the special
sale prlco and tho complainant want
ed to lay In a supply at tho reduced
price. Tho merchant's advertising
sot out that only six bars would bo
sold to a single customer, which Is
within tho rights of tho storekeeper
according to tho stato legal lights.
Imitation Butter Signs Missing.
While tho big stato law book has an
antl-olcomnrgarlnn statute between Its
pages, state Institutions are breaking
the law and using thousands of pounds
of the product without posting tho re
quired sign, "Imitation Butter Used
Here." Tho discovery has Just been
made by Food Commlsloncr Harman
-and his deputies, who havo started a
campaign in an effort to enforce the
statutory provision. The first provi
sion relative to obtainment of a license
to sell imitation butter is half-heartedly
complied with by some mer
chants, while tho law governing tho
uso of tho product Is rarely obeyed.
In substance, the law says that no
lecopor or proprietor of any bakery,
hotel, public institution, dining car,
restaurant, saloon, lunch counter or
place of public entertainment shall al
low tho uso of Imitation butter without
first displaying a sign, 10x14 Inches in
size, on which aro tho required words.

ing strictly enforced, according to tho
official.
Pool Picks Out Homestead.
Labor Commissioner Pool has re
turned from Grant county, whero ho
picked out a homestead following In
the wake of his success in tho recent
ly conducted drawings at North Platte.
The official drew No. 65, but on ac
count of disqualifications and with
drawals of thoso ahead of him was
finally given an opportunity to make
tho thirty-third selection. HIb cholco
of acreages is located twelve miles
