i THE OGDEN STANDARD, OGDEN, UTAH. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3, 1914. s flH ! TEST OF SULPHURIC; ACID ON DUCKS TO BE MADE In an effort to ascertain If combi nations of liquidated sulphuric acid gas were responsible for apparent disease amonp ducks last fall and during the previous year, Fred W, Chambers, state fish and game com missioner, has established an experi mental duck farm near the state fish hatchery at Murray. "I have seen advanced many the ories that combinations of sulphuric acid gas in the form of SO-2 and SO-3 deposited in liquid form by at mospheric transformations in air currents near the mouth of the Jor dan river and near the mouths of the Weber and Bear rivers may have been responsible for the condition of the ducks," says Commissioner Cham bers. "Traces of acids hae been discov i ered near the mouths of the three rivers In the experiment with ducks at the experimental station at Mur ray we intend placing a small solu i tion of acid will be graduated in dif ferent tanks and a close study will be made to ascertain what effect the acid has on the ducks." Mr Chambers expects the arrival during the latter part of the week of two government experts who will make investigations of the supposed duck disease in behalf of the govern ment. Mr. Chambers says that reports circulated yesterday by a man pre j tending to be an agent of the fish and game commission, that he had seen millions of sick ducks a few days ago near the mouth of the We I ber and the Rear rivers is not true. "I wa in botli places several days ago and observed many ducks in the I water," says Mr Chambers "I dis charged a gun over their heads and all flew up. exhibiting much life and strength. These ducks were not I easily alarmed mainly because of be ing tired. At this time of the year they are migrating and large numbers of ducks drop down at the mouth of the Weber and Bear to recover from very' long fights. When they alight j k after these long flights they look f very tired, but after feeding up for two or three davs they resume their I flight refreshed." oo NOTICE TO WATER CONSUMERS The hours for sprinkling lawns from May 28 to October 1 are as follows For all consumers east of Adams avenue (including consumers on Ad ams avenue). to 8 a. m. and 5 to 6:30 p. m.

New York. "Gentlemen: Five years ago last August I was taken to St. Francis Hospital to be treated for bronchitis and congested lungs. After several week's treatment I was advised by the doctor to go to a convalescent sanitarium, but could not be admit ted because the doctor at the hospi tal, after a thorough examination, de clared my case Tubercular and gave me a certificate to that effect. I showed the certificate to Father Stark, and he advised me to take Eckman's Alterative. I took it faith fully, and soon found myself free from night sweats and fever. I have not taken the Alterative now for two years, and can truthfully say I am well. I feel better and am stronger than before my sickness." (Abbreviated) (Affidavit!

REVISE STATEMENTS Washington, D. C. June 2. An in come tax decision handed down by the commissioner of Internal revenu" today will necessitate the redrafting of thousands of Income tax state ments and will add materially to the government's revenues from that source. In making their statements thou sands of taxpayers have deducted more liberally for losses Incurred than the commissioner Is willing to grant. These deductions were made under paragraph B of the Income tax which reads "losses actually sustained dur 'ng the year, incurred In trade or arls ing from fires., storms or shipwreck." The commissioner hold6 that "In trade" as used In the section Is syn onymous with "business." A lo68 which a taxpayer suffered as a resu't of some act not connected with his regular business Is not regarded as deductable from the income statement.
