in this science There will also be
four groups of statuarv surrounds
ing the four pylons placed at the
east and west fronts. The archi.
tect has subdued the use of sculp~
ture in the building. He depends
on mass effects and on the group
ing of masses That is, he depends
on architecture rather than on
tawdry decorations for his effect.
The management of the plan is
simple and direct. The entire
width of the building is spanned
by five well designed uniform
trusses. Special ondeavor has been
made to afford plenty Of illumIna-
tion by day without the use of sky
lights. Light is introduced through
the monitor windows over each
span of the five trusses.
"The building will contain about
four miles of standard guage rail
road track. Even with this lmo
mense trackage two entire bents of
the building are left free of rails
and afford an exhibit space Of 270,
/ 900 square feet. There is a novel
disposition of the toilet rooms of
the building. They are placed in
the bases OF the projecting pylons
and are so arranged as to receive
| light and ventilation and be ac.
cessible from the interior so that
no exhibitor can make the object
ion that he has beeu placed in the
nelghborhood of the plumbing con-
yenlences AT the east end a gall
lery 20 feet in width extends across

A government publication relatins

sionally a person is found who is
habitually made i'll by eating eggs
just as there are those who cannot
eat Strawberries or other foods with
out distress. Such cases are due to some
personal idiosyncrasy, showing that
in reality lone mans meat Is another
mans poison" A satisfactory expla-
nation of such idiosyncrasy seems to
be lacking.
Overindulgence in eggs, as is the
case with other foods, may induce in

thermore. under certain conditions.
eggs may be the cause of illness By
communicating some bacterial disease
or some parasite. 1t is possible for an
egg to become infected with micro
organisms. either before it is laid or
after. The shell is porous, and offers
no greater resistance to micro-organ-
isms which cause disease than it does
to those which cause the egg to spoil
or rot. When the infected egg is eat
en- raw, the micro-organisms. If pres
ent, are communicated to man and
may cause disease. If an egg remains
in dirty nest, defiled with the micro
oranisms which cause typhoid fever.
carried there on the hens feet OF
feathers, it is not strange if some OF
these bacteria occasionally penetrate
the shell, and the egg thus becomes
possible source of infection. Perhaps
one of the most common troubles due
to bacterial infection of eggs is the
more or less serious illness sometimes
caused by eating those which are
stale" This often resembles pto-
maine poisoning, which is caused
not by micro-organisms them
selves, but by the poisonous products
on which they grow.
Occasionally the eggs of worms.
ETC., have been found inside hens,
etc. Such bodies were doubtless ac-
cidentally occluded while the white
and shell were being added to the yolk
in the egg gland of the fowl
Judged by the comparatively small
number of cases of infection or pois-
oning, due to eggs, reported-in medi-
cal literature, the danger of disease
from this source is not very great
However in view of it's possibility. it
is best to keep eggs as clean as pos
sible and thus endeavor to prevent in
fection. Clean poultry bouses, poul-
try runs and nests are important, and
eggs should always be stored and mar
keted under sanitary conditions. The
subject of handling food in a cleanly
manner is too seldom thought of, and
what is said of eggs in this connec-
tion applies to many other foods with
even more force

rhe Macaroni wheas..

The macaroni wheats promise to be
Of great service to American farmers
when a market has been found for
them, either at home or abroad As
drouth resisters they are famous. No
doubt exists among investigators that
they will stand drouth and cold to
far greater extent than the. softer
American wheats. The varieties that
have been tried under hard conditions
in the West have given yields three
and four times as great as have the
ordinary wheats. This is doubtless
due to the fact that they nave been
developed in parts of Europe and Asia
where only grains of exceptional hard
mess can be grown.
These wheats are used in Italy for
the making of macaroni. No market
at present exists for them in this
country, for the reason that the maca-
roni factories here do not use maca-
roni wheat at all in their product, but
use the ordinary American wheat The
macaroni wheats are SO hard that they
cannot be ground by the same ma
chinery that grinds our common
wheats. Therefore the mills do not
want it. The owners of the mills
claim they are not in the milling
business from a philanthropic purpose
and so are not inclined to spend mon
ey for new machinery just to help out
