TO PICK MURPHY
SUCCESSOR HERE,
GARRISON SAYS
Special Meeting of Republican
State Committee to Be
Held Next Week.

Winton G. Garrison, treasurer OF the
Republican state COMMITTEES. said to-
day that a special meeting Of the com
mittee would be held early next week
for the purpose of electing a chairman
to succeed former Governor Murphy.
The date OF the meeting had not been
fixed, but IT probably will not be later
han Tuesday or Wednesday. 1t is ex-
pected that the meeting will be held in
Newark.
Although 1t is not absolutely assured
that United States Senator Briggs will
succeed Ex-Governor Murphy as chair
man, il Is believed that the report that
he will be named by the committee Is
correct. The only question seemed to
be whether MI. Briggs could take the
time from his extensive business rela-
lions to devot his services to the cam
paign.

April is a good month to hatch
goose eggs. 1t is also an excellent
time for getting out ducklings. Stock

any lay in her that will bring it out
Don't be in hurry to remove the

HINTS.

When buttering bread for sand
wiches, always butter the end Of the
loaf before cutting of the slice.
A good black ink, mixed with white
of egg, will restore the color of kid

New iron pots should always be
boiled first with wood ashes and cold
water and then thoroughly scalded
For salad sandwiches, mix chopped
celery and mayonnaise with shredded
white lettuce and spread on thin
slices of bread.
Lower the temperature of an oven
considerably after roast has been in
for twenty minutes, and the juices
will be retained.
If the brush is removed from the

then replaced, the sweeper will not
raise dust
Wet shoes should be stuffed with

How Weasels Carry Eggs.

served to be carrying something un-
der its chin and pressed against its
slender neck, and when a collie dog
belonging to one of the onlookers
made dash at the little creature it
dropped its burden-a hens egg
and gliding under the roadside hedge
disappeared in the woodland.
On being picked up the egg was
found to be without a crack. The
nearest poultry run is about three
hundred yards distant from the place
where the weasel was intercepted. -

DOES FARM POULTRY PAY?

DoE-S FARM 1OULl ny fA1
In January of this year eggs were
retailing in many cities in Ohio at 55
cents per dozen. During much of the
winter they We're selling at 40 cents
or higher. These prices almost pro
hibited the use of eggs as an article
of food, and caused many customers
to jump at the conclusion that there
was easy money in egg production.
Careful inquiry among number OF
farmers would seem 70 indicate that
not to exceed 5 per cent. Of the hens
were laying at all during these
months of high prices, and that, had
the producer received for his product
the price paid by the consumer, he
would still in many cases have been
loser. Certain farms reporting to the
Ohio Experiment Station at Wooster
show an egg cost of from 7 to 13
cents each for the month of January.
This does not argue that poultry on
these farms is Improbable as a whole,
for the entire year would have to be
considered before arriving at a con-
clusion regarding this; whereas, no
data are as yet available for consid.

MADE BY NATURE
Prof. VoyIe Discovers Leaves
of Papyrus in Creek Bed

BERKELEY, Oct. 1s.--The discovery
by Prof. Joseph Voyle. chemist and
geologist, of what he believes to be a
papyrus of natural growth in bed of
a creek in Lake county, may revoIu-
tionize the paper industry in this state.
Professor Noyle has written a letter to
President Wheeler of the university
about his discovery and has been ad-
vised to take up the matter in detail
with Prof Edmund O'Neill of the
chemistry department.
Professor voyle said that the texture
of the new papyrus is identical with
that of the commercial paper now
used The discovery was made in a
creek bed, where the grape leaves and
other foliage under chemical action had
formed a perfect paper.
The university savants will endeavor
TO learn the chemical agency which re-
duced the leaves to, good paper pulp
