The Are Of Egg.

The age of eggs may be approx
mately judged by taking advantage Of
the fact that as they grow old their
density decreases through evaporation
of moisture. According to Siebel a
snew-laid egg placed in a vessel of brine
made in the proportion of two ounces
of salt to one pint of water. will at
once sink to the bottom. An egg one
day, old..swill sink below the surface,
but not to the bottom, while one three
days old will swim just immersed in
the liquid. II more than three days old
the egg will float on the surface, the
amount Of shell exposed being in
creased with age. If two weeks old
only q little Of the shell will dip in
the liquid.

No Intelligent poultry raiser would
think OF advising q new man in the
business what breed to raise, as much
depends on the idea in the mind Of the
would-be poultry raiser. Some poul-
trymen succeed best with one variety
and some with another. Just the
reason Tor this is hard to give. It may
be because some men understand the
science OF feeding better than others,
and because some breeds will better
stand bad feeding than others. The
scientific feeder takes breed of del.
scate physique and feeds 1t asst should
De led. He gets good results and in
creases his bank account. He recon-
mends the breed to the first novice
that comes along. The novice takes
the breed and feeds it without reason
or sense in the feeding. He gets mora
dead fowls than profitable results, and
gives up the breed in disgust. He
then takes another breed whose diges-
ton can handle anything. He feeds
1T IN a way that would ruin an ordi-
nary breed. but does not succeed in
running it. He succeeds in spite of
himself, but not so well as the other
man succeeded with the more delicate
breed. But he has formed an opinion
that cannot be shaken, and that opin-
ion is in favor of the poorer breed,
which is the best breed for him.

Experiment. In Curing Cb,e..

experiments In Curing Cheese.
Prof. G. L. Mckay thus summarizes
some experiments made at the Iowa
Agricultural College in the caring of
cheese:
On the goth of August, 1898, expert
ments were commenced with a view OF
determining the feasibility of central
curing rooms. and the effects of eli
matte conditions on the curing OF
cheese.
Cheese made at Iowa College factory
were shipped by express, fresh from
the press, to one of the best factories
In Canada to be cured. We also sent
some to Guelph Ontario Dairy School
to be cured. Cheese made at Black
Creek factory and at Guelph Dairy
School were sent here, fresh from the
press, to be cured. Shipping tho
cheese ESQ miles by express during the
heat OF summer did not affect the
flavor.
Cheese cured in musty ice box al
temperature of IS degrees compared
favorably with cheese cured in well
ventilated room at a moderately low
temperature during the month of o.
tober. Cheese cured in ice box scored
~ points higher on favor and II a
point higher on texture.
Cheese can be exposed the first five
days to q temperature as high as 90
degrees without injuring its flavor, il
sufficient acid has been developed tc
make firm-bodied cheese and it is
cured at 60 degrees afterwards.
Cheese cured at a. temperature OF
moisture, scored higher than cheese
cured at a temperature above Is de-
grees.
Adding artificial moisture through
pine shavings in q box worked very
satisfactorily in the curing room, and
left no bad odors. -.
Fumigating with formaldehyde gas.
to destroy the mould-producing bae-
terra, gave good results.

H cARDwELL CASE.

Editorial from St Louis Republic. Dec. i2.
Frank P. Walsh. Planters, hotel, st.
Louis:
II have settled and dismissed suit.
Act accordingly.
If this refers to the suit against the
Republic, and if it was written, as
purported, by W. o. Cardwell, then
we have to say, that Mr.. Cardwell,
absolutely and UNANIMOUSLY lied. This
language is used deliberately. because
it was the same language which, in
his suit against the Republic. Mr..
Cardwell declared to be libelouR That
there may be no mistake in the matter,
we repeat that if Mr.. Cardwell says he
has settled and dismissed the suit
against the Republic he absolutely and
UNANIMOUSLY lies.
That he has dismissed the suit, we
cannot doubt. All advices are to that
effect.
That he has settled the suit is not
true, and if SO stated by him. is. we
repeat again, absolutely and infamous
ly false.
The suit was against the Republic.
1t could be dismissed by Mr.. CALDWELL
without regard to the Republic. 1t
could be settled" only by agreement
with the Republic. Third parties
might induce or persuade Mr.. Card
well TO dismiss the case, but only the
Republic could settle it with him.
From the beginning the Republic
has refused to pay n penny, has re-
fused to retract one word or to qualify
u expression it had published. Mr..
Cardwell knows that he has had no
conference with any representative Of
the Republic. He knows that he has
not received one dollar of the Repub-
lies money and from the Republic
not a whisper of apology.
It is reported that he admits having
received money. If this be true we
challenge him to state who paid him
the money and how much he was
paid.
Il was the Republic he had charged
with libeling him, and, if his charge
was true, from the Republic his repair
alton was due. To take money from
another source, and for such money to
dismiss the case and leave the Repub-
lie ~unrepentant and defying is TO en-.
gage in a barter too infamous for apt
Characterization in decent speech.
The mar who does such a thing puts
his honor upon the auction block and
hucksters it in pieces and at prices to
suit whomsoeyer is willing TO buy.
The Republic dares Mr.. Cardwell to
the issue now, as IL has from the be-
ginning. It disavows the payment Of
one penny. II leaves 70 Mr.. Cardwell
whatever he has gotten, If anything,
as clear gain, with his original stock
Of injured reputation intact and unim-
paired.

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.
]. W. Million, President Of Hardin
College. Writes the Ledger an
Interesting Letter.


To the Editcr OF the Ledger.
MEXICO, Dec. I2.-To-day there is a
trend all over the world towards the
municipal ownership and operation OF
public utilities. This movement is
somewhat slower in America chan in
England and Germany. But it exists
just the same tsee Bemis' Municipal
Monopolies, p. $751; There is cited
here in this book the proceedings Of
the American Federation Of Labor,
December, 1896, the sentiment of the
league of American municipalities,
which met in Detroit in August, 1898,
where were gathered fifteen hundred
members Of city councils and other
branches Of city government Further
reference may be made TO the actions
Of public gatherings. That such
should be the case Is doubtless the re-
suit Of the manner in which the corpo-
rations have treated the public when
the authorities had granted fran
chises. That these public franchises
are exceedingly valuable no one can
possibly deny. II they are not yalua-
bic why is it that corporations are so
anxious TO secure them? Everyone
comedies they are valuable.
The main question before US, then is
the question Of ownership and Of
supervisor. Can private enterprises
give better light for the same money
than municipal ownership and opera
ton can give? II we can not have
competent management on the part Of
the city we had better let the electric
light business alone. II we are sure
we can have competent management
for the city, then 1 am in favor Of
public ownership. On this point
Mayor Jones, Of Toledo, Ohio, says:
ITO say that a private corporation
can serve the people better than they
can serve themselves is an unwarrant-
ed assumption Of superiority on the
part Of those who make the claim. IL
is a dagrant manifestation Of the lack
Of the spirit Of patriotism, for no man
who is truly patriotic will be willing
to confess 70 the desire 10 use the peo-
pie Of his city simply for what he can
make out Of them. The city govern
ment is here for the benefit Of all the
people; and those who love the city
will be quite as ready 10 show their

What to Wear This Winter.

A charming new wrap is a Russian
blouse, made Of shaggy material 70
wear with a short skirt.
Trimmings of heavy braid and gal
Icon win be worn more than e*er be-
fore.
Green Is the fav0rite color Of the
season, the more subdued shades pre-
vailing.
Black silk waists, 10 be worn with
skirts Of black serge, cloth or ct@viOt,
are much In vogue.
For evening wear nothing Is more
popular than black net or mouseline
oyer black or white silk.
The new flannel waists have fat
buttons and long-walsted pouch fronts.
Small metal buttons are much used
for trimming dresses this autumn.
The pagoda sleeve is the latest thing
In Paris. II is small at the top and
widens toward the bottom. where It
becomes quite large.
Some Of the newest things In furs
are long stoles, or little round collars
with long tabs. Little tight-ftting
fur coats are also popular.-NoVember

patriotism by serving the city in those
fields where they possess superiority,
whether it be by making gas or other
services, as were the patriots who went
to Cuba and gave their lives in front
Of Santiago"
One reason why corporations sue
coed 10 bleeding the public so at times
Is that our business men and pro-
fessional men are too busy and too
nice TO go into politics. II we put
some Of these public utilities under
the control Of the city, then our capa-
BILE business men will perhaps find
time to go into city politics to a sufi-
cient extent TO see that the city's
business is well cared for. / do not
mean by this that We are to have the
spoil system introduced into the ad-
ministration Of these public utilities.
Our city government is acting very
wisely in attempting to prevent that
in the particular case before us. Mex
ico has enough clean, capable business
men to attend 10 these matters and
do it rightly. The question is, will
they do IL? We want some people TO
speak out on this point. Ny own
opinion about this matter is that our
capable business men will take more
interest in city affairs If we have the
municipal ownership and operation OF
the electric light business. It will be
to their business interests to do so.
