NOTICE.
w. H. WORTH, S. B. A.

After January 1, 1894, no orders for
goods will be filled unless the seal of
the Alliance is placed upon it. This is
to protect our brethren. Orders are to
be filled only for Alliancemen.
/ have calls for large quantities of
such eggs as we have been shipping to
Boston. Let each Sub Alliance take up
the plan sent out and do not wait for
returns. If you follow directions good
prices surely will be received.
We have ordered thousands of egg
boxes direct from the factory and the
crates and baskets will be sent from
here complete in a few days. We re-
greet the delay and expense in getting
the egg baskets from Boston to those
Subs that have ordered the past month
Eggs will bring in Boston market 81
to % cents net if properly handled. One
brother has shipped beef to Boston.
We think it will be a losing business,
therefore do not advise such shipments.
We cannot recommend any other mar
ket f Or eggs at this time except Boston.
We can get more there net than most
of markets pay gross. Send orders for
five or more crates complete.
Our merchant writing from Boston,
18th, says: Your eggs are fast taking
the place of fresh eastern, and the time
is not far distant when they will take
the lead, providing you keep up the
system you have adopted: The eggs
like Mr.. w. S Barnes shipped will
always command top prices"

On page four the reader will find a
oble mi Iogical article written by
MAJ VIM. A. Guthrie, a well known
ia%ver of Durham. He makes the
liter very plain by quoting all the
Material laws on u statute books
relating to trusts. We believe he

tion in the State, unless it be those

ENGLAND IS

In our news columns will be found a
London dispatch giving the substance
Of a-ss,ggCh made by Arthur j. Balfour
N the House of Commons last week.
Mr. Balfour is frightened badly. He
thinks every other nation on the face
Of the earth ready to pounce down on
England, qna urges some steps to i'm
mediately strengthen the English
navy.
We don't know just how much cause
tbare IS for alarm, but we do know
that every other nation on earth ought
to be willing to give England a severe
Aooging on short notice. Hundreds of
wears ago that country acted the part
Of a bully and made war on all her
%neighbors. America declared her in
dependence and whipped England 12O
years ago. Since that, England has
been cautious and doesn't pick a row
with any except some Of the smaller
nations. But her fnanciers have got
first mortgage on several countries,
and they have taken steps to demone-
tie silver and create disaster in many
countries. They find it cheaper to buy
legislators than whip strong nations.
We are opposed to We think
America can run her affairs right re
CARELESS of England, if she will. Bur
if that country will insist on a quarrel,
WehOpe this or some other country, or
several together, if necessary, will
give her a first class thrashing and put
the royal" jackasses over there to
work on the public roads.

DIRECTIONS FOR PACKING AMI
SHIPPING EGGS.

Packing.-Be sure and have the two
divisions in each crate. Before putting
in eggs scatter some fine cut hay or
straw, bran, cotton seed hulls or oats
on bottom of crates or put in several
layers of paper. After putting In your
boxes of eggs fill in around sides n
on top with same packing so that the
boxes will not move about, but are
held perfectly steady. Let your eggs
in each box be fresh, clean, and or
same size and color as near as possible.
Put a slip, properly filled up, in each
box.
Shipping.-Order your crates, egg
boxes, stencil plates, printed postal
cards and box slips from this office:
Not less than ten crates, holding 81
dozen each, should be ordered at once.

dozen eggs, stencil plates, printed

TO THE BRETHREN.

AS the Executive Committee have
ordered that all orders must have the
Alliance seal on them, brethren will
please observe that ruling, and when
making orders, be certain to have the
order stamped with a seal. Where the
Business Agent is not near, 1 would
suggest hat the brethren have a few
order sheets stamped with the seal, so
that they can order. The rulings of
the Executive Committee must be
strictly obeyed. The first price cur
rent will be issued by the latter part of
January, and is only for the brother
hood. They will be sent to the Secre-
tarles, and they will be given to Bust
