Fresh EggS---Yedr Old.

Some months ago rumor went
round-it was started by correspon-
den of the Lancet-that a chicken
h d been Matched from an egg which
had been preserved by the silicate of
soda for year. Another correspon-
dent has just been experimenting,
and has found that though the eggs
would not produce chickens they
could not be distinguished from new
laid eggs. The produce dealer has
long ago discovered the virtue and
the value of the egg preservative,
and has lald his plans accordingly,
while hens in Russia, Siberia. Moroc-
CO and Egypt lay the eggs. The
breakfast egg which is eaten as new
laid in new Cape Colony, for instance,
has probably come, with a million
others from Russia by way of London
and is about nine months old. Still
it is comforting to learn that it won't
hatch chickens.-L London Daily
Chronicle.

The Teaching of Ddirying
At the Ohio State University

Every winter at Columbus speci; /
course is given, beginning the first
week in j Inuary, for eleven weeks, to
teach Dairying. The State has equip
ped this School for the purpose of
educating the butter and cheese
makers of the state and the dairy
farmers who either sell their milk to
a Wholesale or retail trade or make
butter on their own farms.
The students are taught the COM
position of milk and cream: how to
produce sanitary milk; to run dairy
machinery, such as cream separators,
pasteurizers, bottling machines, and
the latest and most improved ap-
paratus for making butter and
cheese. They are taught the char
acteristics of the different breeds of
dairy cattle, their care and manage
ment, and how to Judge animals for
dairy purposes. They are also taught
how to feel dairy animals to secure
the best results. Instruction is given
on the diseases of dairy cattle and
lectures on methods of controlling
contagious diseases. Nine professors
and instructors give instruction in
the different lines and many cream
erymen and dairymen have saved the
cost of taking the course in one year
by p It ting in practice what they had
learned.
1t is line of practical education
that the state has established for it's
dairy interests and it offers excep-
lional opportunities for young men
who are interested in dairy work. A
neat bulletin describing the course
has been recently published and
probably could be had by any one in
terested by writing to the Depart
ment of Agriculture of the Ohio
State Uu-vsrsity, Columbus.

The Wall Street FURRY
and the Country.

Chicago Tribune.
The history of the country's busi-
ness during the last six months is un-
like the history of any previous per-
iod since the United States came into
being. Until this year it has always
been fact that whenever Wall sire ct
got in flurried or nervous condition
the rest of the country at once be-
came equally agitated- In 1908 there
were several sharp furries in Wall
street, followed by the revelation of
that artistic swindle," the United
States Shipbuilding company, but
the country discarded its former Gus
tom of following New York in mat
t-rs financial, kept its head, STAYED
off the incipient panic, and now looks
forward to busy winter and spring.
Tne country can understand why
the East got so frightened. 1t can
also understand why the West and
South didn't get frightened. The
East's money is largely in stocks and
b ,nds, many of which are specula-
tive. The stocks being dropsied, the
we're tapped and much water drawn
of Losing some of their imposing
corporosity they at first seemed to be
failing. But the body which was left
after the operation, being much
sounder than the unwieldly bulk pre-
/ viously apparent, the patient is real
ly better-though a bit thinner. The
pro- poets of life are much better
after the water has been drawn off.
The country knew that.
i 1t also knew that its wealth did
not abide in paper holdings, but in
food and clothes. The world can get
on without wildcat corporations, b II
it must have food and clothes. The
West and the South have had a sue
cessful year in raising grain, cattle
and cotton. These things are con
yertible into the food and clothes
the world must have, and are. there
fore, just as good as so much cash
Railing that its wealth was found,
ed on real, tangible ttings-likt
bushels of wheat, and bales Of
cotton, and herds of cattle-the West
ami South refused to get scared
even though Wall street tremblei
for its paper secureties.
The bank clearances tell the story
The eastern cities generally show Z
Big falling off over year ago, while
the western and southern cities ole
their own or actually gain. New Yori
clearances are 3D. per cent less thar
a year ago, while the country outside
( of New York shows a loss of but 2;
per cent. New Orleans, the great
southern market, shows the biggest
gain over a year ago-S6.7. This il
largely becaus1 of the high price Of
cotton.

Accidental Shooting
Near Lake View

Last Thursday about 10 o'clock
Clarence Cros>ley was out hunting
with a target gun and got in COM
pany with Lewis Thompson, son of F.
NJ. Thompson, and as the boys were
walking along the gun was in some
way discharged, the ball entering
the right foot of the Thompson boy,
just back of the joint, and ranging
forward lodged near the middle of
the foot. DR.. Thompson, of Santa
Fe, was called and probed for the
ball and found it located as above
stated.
Mr.. Thompson left here on the
afternoon train, taking the boy TO
the Hamer hospital at BellefoE-
taine.
The Thompson boy is about thirteen
years old and the Crossley boy about
fourteen.
Parents make a mistake allowing
boys of that age to handle guns.
