Now is the time the egg preserver
may get in his work: I'm many towns,

packing eggs by the thousands at a
cost Of two cents each, when fresh eggs
are so cents higher. Eggs packed and
treated as follows can be kept three
months, and seem and look like fresh
eggs: afAei
Take common box, such as is
used for packing canned tomatoes;
upon 1, two inch layer of fresh, clean
oats place the eggs large end down,
and leave space of at least an inch be-
tween the eggs; cover with layer of
Eoats and then place another layer of
eggs as before, until the box is nearly
full; fill with oats, packing the grain
in neatly and screWso on the top; place
your box in a cool cellar, and turn it
upside down every other day. II
strictly fresh eggs are used, and the
turning is attended to as directed, few
persons will know them from fresh
leggsa and they will certainly be much

Because the citizens of Morris have
insisted upon railroad crossings being
kept open, the company now threat
ems to move its depot ont of town.
While we think they have no serious
Intention of doing so, we can see
numerous ad dYaptages to be gained by
our city by such removal. Perhaps
it would result in more ad-
yantages than disadvantages. It. is
both inconyenient and dangerous to
have depot, with the consequent
passing of trains and continual hand
ling OF cars upon sidetracks, in the
very business center of the city, where
the constant crossing Of the tracks by
people and teams is Q necessity.
Should the depot be moved, it will
result in inconveniences, perhaps, to

and to people receiyiipg freight, but
all kinds Of business can be carried
on more easily than now. We don't

IS. F. Wolff and Maggie NJ. Sarno,
both.ofs Morris, = were married on
Thursday evening, Nov. 5th, by Rev.
TX. Il. Norris at the parsonage. Mr..
VOLTS residence in Morris dates
from the days of hls youth. Since
completing his education, he has
been at the Riverside Roller Mill
where he is still engaged. Miss sar-
no has lived in Morris for about two
years, her former. home being at
Sauk Rapids. Both have numerous
friends who nowjoin i'll Wishing them
happiness and prosperity. Mr.. and
Mrs. Wolff began keeping house at
once intheir new home at Riverside.
Will some of our kind hearted Re-
pnblicans please pass the hat for the
benefit of the local Democracy. The
Democrats had little blowout last
Fall, you know, over Cleveland's
election and hav'n't paid the fife and
drum corps for the music yet. 1t is
said that Mr.. DeKay became security
orthe bill and now his unapprecia-
tive brethren propose to let him pay
it. Mr.. DeKay is very excellent
gentleman and is abundantly able to
pay for a little music, but it is never
theless .unkind for his jubilant party
to require him to pay the fiddler when
they so noisily assisted at the dance
and gobbled all the refreshments.
There have been times in the his
tory of Morris when surrounding
places have paid more for wheat and
when grain would go almost from the
Village limits to other places to mar
ket. Now, however, the situation is
reversed and Morris is long way in
the lead. Prices have, for some time,
been higher here than elsewhere and
farmers from beyond Appleton and
from equally long distances in other
directions have brought their wheat
here. Usually they make about $4.00
on an ordinary load of wheat by COM
ing here and save $500 dollars more
on the load of wood or coal they take
home with them, Thus each trip to
Morris pays them about $500. A high
price for produce and low price for
fuel are items that farmers will take
advantage of. even if it does cost
them little travel.

him through the war Of the rebellion,

old war horse was in active service
three years, participated In the siege of
Vicksburg, the battles of Lookout
Mountain, Mission Ridge, all the
fights of Sherman's campaign from
Dalton to Atlanta and Sherman's
march to the sea, through the Carroll

which lasted about one week. He
was brought home and has ever since
been a pet of the family, a good, active

and everybody about Spencer knew

Editor Register:-I am sitting under
large pine tree as / write this. The
day is cool and pleasant. We had a
little rain yesterday; it is always bet
ter after rain than before, for it packs
the sand down. Walking on these
sands seems like walking OIL snow.
The mosquitoes are troublesome of
warm nights, but that is not often;
there are not half as many bugs and
insects here as in Kansas.
I like Florida better than 1 expected,
perhaps on account of having so many
oranges to eat. The orange trees
are hanging full. While I was down
at the bay the other day I had my first
experience eating oysters from the
shell. After breaking them open we
ate them raw; some may like them,
but 7 will take mine cooked. Some
people dress in white, while Others
dress in black, heavy goods. One does
not really know how to dress here in
winter.
Tampa is a town larger than lola
and has twice the business. There are
more fine buildings here and the town
is still improving. Northern people
are coming in rapidly. Steamboats,
