DANISH EXPORT OF EGGS.
of the Trade Within Five
Years.

In 1898 we scarcely knew Denmark
as an egg producer; but in that year
was founded the first Danish coopera-
tive society for the export of eggs.
The same system which had succeeded
with butter was now to be applied to
eggs, says the London Mail The coun-
try was divided up into districts; each
district had in some railway station
4 collecting depot, and all members of
the society were bound to deliver three
times a week at the depot. The depot
agent refused, or had right to refuse.
all eggs more than four days old, and
every producer of each district had
distinctive number branded on the
egg. Thus, in the event of an egg prov
ing bad, the depot which shipped il
would be proceeded against, and by
means OF the distinctive number the
depot agent would be able to detect
the producer. on whom the loss would
finally fall
BY thus guaranteeing absolute
freshness and making good any occa
sional loss, the Danes established n
high standard, and so created a con
tinuous demand. And what is the re-
suit? In ls95-the first year Of the
experiment-thsre were established
six local egg societies, with an aggre-
gate OF 1000 members; in 1900 there
were actually no fewer than s37 sep
Arate cooperative societies. with to-
tai membership OF l3o.o00 producers!
Is 1t surprising that Denmark should
send to England alone 100000 of
eggs annually?

ON THEIR SEA LEGS.
Cattle DO Not Get Frightened or Un.
easy AhOat in Rough
Weather.

"Do the horses and cattle get fright
ened and make much disturbance in
rough weather."
"Bless you, no." said cattleship
sailor, according to the New York
Sun. They've got sea legs that would
put an old salt to shame. Occasionally
a horse will lose his balance, but bull
lock is the greatest balancer you ever
saw. They are knowing brutes, too.
You know we put them four in pen.
Well. you'll never find all four standing
upor lying down at one time. They fig
ure the thing out and decide how
they'll get the most room and most
while two lie down. When they get
tired. they shift the watch.
1.-The horses like to be talked to
when there's big sea on and things
are pretty lively They always like
certain men better than others. So do
the cattle. We have one man who can
do anything with them. Every bull
lock and horse on the boat knows him
by the time we've been out two days.
He comes in handy when there's an ac-
cdent.
Its mighty seldom that n serious
accident happens nowadays, but once
in awhile horse or bullock does get
thrown and break a leg or do some bad
damage. We don't carry J veterinary.
The men know us much about ordinary
cattle and horse ailments as any vet,
and il one of the brutes breaks his leg
there's nothing for 1t but to kill him.
A veterinary couldn't do anything for
him.
The company charges from 80 to
S20a head for carrying cattle and from
S27 to $3.50 head for horses. When
the government inspectors were put
to work AID stopped overcrowding
they cut down the carrying capacity
of some boats IS head. That made a
pretty big hole In the ships profits in
the course of year"

NICKELS FOR CAR FARE.
Unele sAn Appropriates - Quarter Of
. Million Dollars for Letter
Carriers.

"Afive-cent piece isnot much in itself,
but when piled in heaps with millions
OF other round pieces of copper and
nickel alloy it goes toward making up

Washington Star reporter.
The government appropriates
100000 nickel pieces in the form of
s255 900 for car fare for letter ear
riers in the different cities where the
free delivery service is established.
at was formerly the practice in
Washington to supply the carriers
with car tickets. Several carriers were
suspended for appropriating tickets
from their allowances for purposes
other than official. An arrangement
was made some time ago with one of
the car companies to transport all car
riers over its lines when going to and
returning from their deliveries in uni
form for lump sum yearly. This ar
rangems mt has been found TO work ad-
mirably in Washington. as it saves a
great many hours of the carriers time

LIGHT AND DARK BLUE SKIES.
Reasons Given By ssieatists for the
Hourly aaA Monthly Changes
in Color.

Changes of color in the sky have
vestigation. and il has been found that
during some months of the year the
sky is a deeper blue than during 9TH
ers. The sky is most intensely blue in
December, January, March and Sep
tember, and paler in color during July,
August and November.
In observing the changes in the sky
from hour to hour, il has been found
that the sky is a deeper blue in the
morning than during she heat of the
day. says the Albany Argus. This in
dicates that. since the deepest color is
seen in the coolest months and during
the coolest part of the day. heat plays
an important part in determining the
sky color.
Prof Tyndall made experiments
showing that the sky tint is caused by
the reflection OF the blue waves of
light from minute particles floating
are shorter than those of yellow or
red. and consequently are more easily
arrested and reflected back.
When the sun is blazing hot high in
the heavens it dissolves the fine par
ticles OF vapor to great extent. and
leaves fewer Of them to split up the

STRANGE RITUAL MURDER.
Germany UnAer Singular
Circunsstane

A German Hamed Lebedeer, serving
in the French foreign legion, has
told strange story about ritual
murder to the officers of court
martial assembled at Oran in AL
geria, says the London Telegraph.
The soldier was being tried for hav-
ing made away with his military eff

stating that he was preparing to de-

about to be arrested as the man who
killed and cut up young Catholic
student named Worser, at Koenitz,
about two years ago. This was
case of what is known as ritual mur-
der, and it caused much sensation at
the time of it's preparation.
Lebedcer's story is that he was out

AWNINGS IN BIG LOTS,
1t Takes Great Number to supply
Some Of New Iork's Btg Mod
ern Baildinga

ITO supply some OF the big modern
buildings with awnings" said an avn
ing maker TO New York Sun man,
costs as much as it would to build a
moderate-sized house.
Not all of the great buildings re-
quire awnings. Some of the very larg-
est have their principal exposure in
such a direction that they are not
needed, the sun not shining on these
windows during the hours the Offices
are occupied. And then, of course,
there are great buildings that do not
require awnings on some sides, but
need them ON others; or In courts and
SO on.
Here, for instance, is building
with about 1000 windows, of which
600 or thereabouts are supplied with
awnings.
another building l have in mind
has about 1000 windows. Idon't know
how many awnings they have there,
but if it is supplied in the same pro-
portion as the other, that would give
it about 1000 awnings. ! dare say,
that in fact, you would find in the city
single buildings with more than a
thousand awnings.
you see. just the awnings for some
of these great modern buildings

rugged. Lcbedeer had to do wha,
he was told. He cut up the body.
and the blood was drained into
silver basin. When all was over
Lebedcer was paid, and was told that
whenever he wanted assistance he
had only to present a sealed letter
given to him by the masked men to
any Jews whom he should meet. He
used the letter at Breslau and at
Frankfort-ontheMa Main, and then en-
tered French territory. Fearing ar
rest he joined the foreign legion.

to six months impris-
