eggs may be the cause of illness by

or some parasite. II is possible for an
egg TO become infected with micro
organisms, either before il il 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

feathers, 1t is not strange II some OF
these bacteria occasionally penetrate
the she'll and the egg thus becomes a
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
which they elaborate from materials
on which they grow.

Judged by the comparatively small
number OF cases of infection or pois-
oning. due to eggs. reported In medl-
cal literature. the danger OF disease
from this source is not very great
However in view of its possibility. it
is best to keep eggs as clean as pos
sible and thus endeavor to prevent in
fection. Clean poultry houses. 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 10 said OF eggs in this connec-
tion applies to many other foods with
even more force.

Socialism
i'm Japan

The recent action taken by the home
department with regard to socialistic
publications and organizations will
probably create an impression that Ja-
pan is in some danger of being invaded
by the enemy which continental Eu-
rope finds so much difficulty in holding
at bay. II would not be correct inn

confirmed by tho JiJi Shlmpo. which.
while admitting that the reign OF plu-
tocracy cannot be altogether prevented
In this country. denies that any condi-
tions suggesting the growth of social
ism have yet become visible.
The Jill evidently thinks that the
rich and the poor in Japan are not sep
arated by a gulf comparable with that
dividing the plutocrat and the pauper
in the West. Here the poor man has
his compensations. lie takes his holi-
days. goes to fetes and festivals and
enjoys himself thoroughly on occasion.
There is nothing intolerable in his lot.
The Jill might have added that the
rich mans manner of living is by no
means so conspicuously superior to the
poor mans. as 1t is In Europe or Amer
lea.
Concerning the actual possession OF
wealth. we really doubt whether the

There are not. indeed, quite as large

The Maearoni wh.as..

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 a
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 gr.nds our common
whea;s. Therefore the mills do not

Our Grazing Lands.

The grazing lands, the pastures, are
among the two or three factors that
make nations rich. Few stop to con-
slider the tremendous Importance TO
our American industries Of this portion
Of our domain. Business enterprises
to the value Of two billion dollars are
directly dependent on them. Careful
estimates by the United States De-
partrent OF Agriculture indicate that
we use In this country 100000 tons
OF hay per year. Were that the only
source Of fodder supply two-thirds OF
all our live stock would have to be
discarded. But the grazing lands OF
the country. the farm pastures. the
mountain sides. and the great ranges
OF the West, produce 210.000.00 tons
OF feed per year. This keeps the great
livestock industries in operation. The
Improvement Of our pasture lands can
enormously increase the revenues OF
our farms. These are the lands so
generally neglected In this country
that In many cases II is n wonder how
stock can exist upon them.
We have improved our meadow lands
by the Introduction of grasses origi-
nally European. but we have left our
pastures and grazing lands to native
grasses, some Of them of very little
value on account OF wiry texture OF
the plants or on account of little de-
velopment after maturity. We can
vastly increase the value of these lands
by not pasturing them too closely and
by the introduction into them OF for
eign forage plants or grasses. The SOW
ing OF good pasture mixtures In our
pastures would be one method OF stop
ping the over-grazing. as this would
give n greater supply of feed witSout
the necessity OF the farmer disturbing
his present arrangements as to stock
at pasture.

Dirt Depreciats, Woo.

From Farmers Review: The great
es part OF Illinois wool comes in In
saleable condition but some woods are
chaffy. This condition comes. I sup
pose, from allowing sheep to run to
the hay or straw stacks. | frequently
get consignments of bury wool. Those
are the principal defects, to which may
be added weak staple, which comes
from slcknesr Of the sheep or want OF
care and feeding. especially in very
cold weather. These defects reduce
the value OF wool from two to Ave
cents a pound. according to the extent
OF the defect.-P. c. Porter. Chicago.

ROUGH AND TUMBLE IN
UNION LEAGUE CLUB
Eminent Republicans in Chicago Mako
an Effort to Spill Bad
Blood.
Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
CHICAGO, Sept. 6.-The Union
League club was the scene, few days
ago, of a rough tumble fight be-
tween George r. Cole, president of the
Legislative Voters league, and Fred
M. BIount,vice president of the Chicago
National bank and Republican leader
of the Twentieth ward. The affair was
kept quiet by the friends of the two
men and just leaked out today. The
governing committee of the Union
League club has taken up the matter
and both participants in the fracas
probably will be disciplined.
1t has been an open secret for some
time that bad blood existed between
Messrs. Cole and Blount on account
Of political differences. Mr.. Blount, who
is prominently identified with the Re-
publican machine. has never relished
the fight made against the machine
candidates by Mr.. Cole as president
of the Municipal Voters league and of
the Legislative zsVoters' league. The
two met with some friends at the club
and politics was discussed.
Before any of the group realized the
serious turn of affairs, the lie had been
passed and Blount, according to wit
nesses, had seized Cole by the throat
and forced him to the floor. The rest
of the group separated the enraged
combatants and reminded them that
their actions would reflect upon the
club and that they were making spec
tacle of themselves.

ST. JOSEPH, Mich, Sept. 6-The
Catholic parsonage on Church street
was the scene of desperate struggle
and the capture of a burglar by Father
Michael Esper last night. Father Es-
per was preparing to retire, and by
chance he saw the body of a man
crouching on the floor in an unoc-
cupied sleeping room. The electric
lights were turned on and the stranger
made an attempt to gain liberty by
rushing from the room.
A struggle followed and Father Es-
per dealt the burglar terrible blow,
telling him. Both men fought for sew
eral minutes. Father Esper was handi-
capped by house robe that he wore
and received several wicked blows on
the head and face. Finally the in
truder got favorable opportunity to
run to a back window, where he had
hoped to make his escape.
Just as his body was practically
through the window the priest caught
him by the heels and held him in this
position until the police came. The
man was locked in the city Jail. He
gave his name as Frank Reagan.
