BAD EGG SEASON
It Is Unlawful to Sell an Egg
Which Has Been in
Incubator.
WHAT THE LAW SAYS.

Many of those who sell and the ma
jority of those who buy, do not know
that it is unlawful for any person TO
sell or offer for sale any egg that has
been placed in an incubator or is
decayed or in decaying condition. 1t
happens sometimes that hen will not
set and the eggs are taken from be-
meath her and placed in the basket
with Others. 1t is not infrequent that
an incubator does not operate salts
factOrily and the eggs are removed
and afterwards mixed with others and
offered for sale. This is in strict vi
olatiOn of law, which states:
1T shall be unlawful for any person
firm. or corporation to sell or offer
for sale any eggs after the same have
been placed in an incubator or to sell
or offer for sale eggs in rotten, de
cayed or decaying condition to be used
for food. 1t shall be the duty of all
pcaCe and health officers to seize any
eggs found to be unWholesOme and
which are intended for sale or offered
for sale for human food. Any person
firm or corporation found guilty Of Vi
Olating the provisions of this act shall
be fined not less than ten dollars nOI
more than one hundred dollars for
each OffenSe."

ALL FARMERS ARE

Lateness of Season flinders
Planting of Crops.

Greensboro, Ind. MAJ THE far
mers of this community are somewhat
concerned on account of the l2teneSs
of the season. The down pour Of rain
tor the last few days has delayed corn
planning for at least ten days. Most
Of the farmers are about through plOw-
ing for corn, yet they have not been
able to do any work to promote the
corn crop as the ground has not been
dry enough to work for ten or twelve
days. Some farmers have sod that
was plOwed last fall that looks as
though it was a meadow or pasture
field There are a few chronic grum-
blers in every vicinity, but at this time
the complaint of the lateness of the
season is general. Farmers near
Greensboro have the least acreage of
oat crop they have had for several
years. Some claim there has been too
much rain and cool weather for the
wheat and clover crop. Those who
have examined the cherries say most
of them were killed by the recent
frosts. but the pear and apple crop are
safe so far

General Demand

of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known

acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination of Syrup OF Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why

IN GRIP OF PLAGUE
Reports From Venezuela Say
La Guayra Is an In
ferno.
REFUGEES ARE HERDED.

Willemstad. May LA Guayra,
Venezuela, is a city OF death. The
plague is spreading there. The inhab-
itants are fighting it frantically-alone
and unaided. From the rest OF the
world they are cut off on one side by
the sea, on all others by military pa
trolls under orders to shoot fugitives on
sight. OF news from the town there
ds none, so strict is the quarantine.
Enough has leaked out, however, TO
prove the spot an inferno. Business
is suspended, stores closed and resi-
dences suffered. None ventures
abroad except under absolute cOmpul-
sion. Food is hardly to be had on any
terms. Whoever will may enter with
supplies. but, having entered, none
can leave.
From miles away the smoke can be
seen by day and the flames by night Of
blazing houses where the plague has
been, of burning lumber piles from
which the people are trying to drive
the disease carrying rats and OF the
fires in the oil-flooded streets, a plan
adopted by the authorities as the speed
lest means of Kidding the community Of
the accumulation Of filth which was
probably mainly responsible for the
epidemic. Most of the wOrkingmen,
who, panic-stricken with fear of the
plaugue and rendered desperate by
famine. broke through the military cor
don and scattered through the sur
rounding country. have been herded to-
gether and driven back by the troops.
