On Saturday night a farmer
brought Isl dozen eggs to certain
store in Neville and traded them
for goods. the appearance Of the
eggs did not indicate freshness
and when there was lull in
business the proprietor and one of
his clerks proceeded to candle them.
The result Of the investigation
showed l66 of the eggs to be bad,
leaving 20 fresh, or presumably so.
The farmer was at once called up
and asked if he had not made mis-
take and sold eggs for the incubator
He replied that if any were bad he
would make it all right. Under
the pure food law the minimum fine
for this violation is $S3O.-Moville
Mail.
The farmers of this part of Iowa
must awaken to the alarming pre-
valence of tuberculosis in their dairy
herds, and the legislature must in
crease the powers of the state veter-
marian, and go to the extent of par
tally compensating farmers for
stock destroyed. if the disease is to
be finally eradicated. We see it
stated on the authority of Henry
Wallace, that the disease isalarming-
ly on the increase in Iowa, and that
there are several packers who re-
fuse Iowa stuff from certain sections
of the state, and that buyers for
certain houses in Chicago have or
ders not to buy them any hogs from
Iowa. The dairy regions of the
state are especially under the ban.
We are informed that one packer
has refused to accept hogs from a
certain locality in Jones county be-
cause of the prevalence of the dis.
ease. 1t is generally believed that
tuberculosis in hogs IN the dairy re.
gion has increased with great rap
idity since the adoption of the farm
separator system, under which the
farmers are able to feed to their
hogs fresh milk from cows that are
infected. 1t is of little use to be-
come angry at the packers who re-
fuse to buy infected cattle and pay
for them until post mortem exam
ination discloses their condition.
The only place to eradicate the dis.
ease is on the farm where it exists.

NIny FOLLOW Suit.

The mayor of Salem, 1t is stated,
has arranged for the oiling of the
principal streets of that city, without
waiting for the slow motion of the
city council. Last year the streets
surrounding the court house square
we're oiled, and the process gave good
The oiled streets were
dustless all summer, but the water
sprinkled streets were duty an hour
after being sprinkled. We are told
that at first the oiled streets are
odorous, but not objec-
tionable after a week or two, and
that anyhow the smell of oil is pre-
ferable to dust. Practically all re-
ports of experience in oiling city
streets are decidedly favorable, and
the method has had tests enough tn
reach reliable conclusions upon. In
Portland a good deal of street oiling
has been done to the high satisfac-
tion of those concerned. Everything
this method of treating
streets tc prevent dust seems deserv-
ing of the consideration of the mayor
and councilmen of Grants Pass
