winter more stock than ever before, and
my stock never did so well. For three
successive years I had to buy feed to come

had ike experience, paid out consider.

Preservation of Eggs.

Results gained from prizes offered By
The London Dairy for the best preserved
eggs seem to show that the lime water
system is, all things considered, the best.
a pound of lime should be stirred with a
gallon Of water, and the eggs, perfectly
fresh, immersed therein in barrels or Jars.
This excludes air and any germs that
might cause mildew or mold, and pre-
vents evaporation, so that the contents
OF the egg are not reduced In bulk. 1t is
important to have a considerable excess
Of lime to replace any that may become
carbonsted. The vessels containing the
eggs should be kept in cool, well ven
tiIated place. Stockman.

McCRlLLIS' ASSUMPTION.


EuEOF Argus
ROCK ISLAND, June 9.-The represent,
tatlve of the Rock Island Union who
went to Moline and interviewed Col. Mc>
Crillis on the encampment difficulty, and
who is also member of s. V. by hold
ing transfer card from Beardsley camp,
gives considerable space to the dashng
colonel, excuslng himself and shoulder
ing the blame on the local committee in
charge of the encampment for his high
handed outrage upon the citizens Of Rock
Island and Beardsley camp, s. of V. 1t
is usurpation of authority which will
not be tolerated by the division encamp>
ment. At Peoria last year the delegates
voted for Rock Island-not Sylvan ISL
and. This place may have been
mentioned with others, but the encampN
ment made no decision as to location.
That was left solely to the best judgment
of BaArdsley camp, but this is used
as an excuse to lay the blame on the 10
cal committee of arrangements. When
the committee, which is composed of cts
liens of Rock Island. saw that Sylvan
island was Objectionable to large por-
ton of the people of Rock Island, whom
the committee had to rely upon for means
to carry on the encampment. that CONS
mittee decided that they were entitled to
some consideration, as without pub
lie assistance we could not succeed, We
determined, therefore, to change the loca>
ton from Sylvan island in Moline
to Davenport's part in Rock Island,
which we had the right to do. Every
mail brings letters from G. A. r. men
and Sons Of Veterans denOuncing Mc~
Crelis' action as an outrage to E. l.
Beardsley Camp. Two months of hard
labor and over 500 has been spent
already to entertain our guests and make
the encampmeht a success. We believe
that there are other reasons best known
to Col. McCrellis perhaps, for his actions.
We care nothing for him, but we do have
a great regard for the noble young men
who com pose the Sons of Veterans and |
they will punish this usurper of their
authority by reducing him to the ranks
where he belongs. E. NJ. WILCOX,
Past Capt.

In his complaint Count Mitkiewicz recites
that Barker agreed to furnish all the necessary
money to obtain all the concession and to or
ganize and capitalize the companies required
to carry on the business contracted for, while
compainants were to conduct the negotiations
in China. He further alleges that he OBJ
tanned the concessions and returned to Amer

cred to conclude the agreements made with
the viceroy Ii Hung Chang, but that Barker,
while entertaining said envoy as his guest,
executed with the latter certain papers leav-
ing the compliments entirely out of the
schemes contemplated.
Having done this, the complainant further
alleges, Barker brought certain other par
ties into the projects, and proceeded to or
ganize certain companies, but not the ones
