ENGLISH EGG TRAIN

Before their eyes, as the side of
the demonstration van is let down,
are unfolded the engines of the indus
try and the finished works of art.
The onlookers can themselves pass
before the informing flames on the
patent lamp eggs carefully selected
to exhibit all the vices and virtues of
the egg.
The idea Of the cooperative depots
which the demonstration train is to
popularize has already appealed
strongly to the Welsh small holders.
Enthusiastic meetings have been held
and addresses delivered and a mass
OF correspondence has reached the
headquarters of the National Poultry
Organization society. So the egg and
poultry train is giving it's first dem.
onstration in South Wales. The ex.
penses are largely supplied by the
money allotted by the government to
the Agricultural Organization society,
which admirably directs English CO.
operation from its center at Dacre
house, Westminster
nc Ol6dulElLB assistance or the
Great Western railway, which has
made several attempts to help small
holders, has smoothed the working of
the campaign. 1t is hoped that the
success of this dashing experiment
will stimulate repetitions IN other
parts of the country. North Wales,
too, is in outer darkness, and central
Yorkshire is suffering from market
difficulties. The American trains of
this pattern have wrought wonders.
They have brought before the eyes
and to the ears of remotest farmers
the latest knowledge on the most ele.
mental subjects of agriculture. The
South Wales demonstration train is to
go step further. 1t is to teach the
value of a great movement. as well as
to demonstrate to eye and ear the
advantage Of scientific methods. The
occasion is new in the annals OF ag-
ricultural organization in England.

Effort to Educate Farmer to
Value of Poultry Industry.
Agricultural Organization Society, In
Which Agricultural Cooperation
of England is Focused Is Orig
inator of Idea.

London.-A campaign quite novel to
England has started with the first
of the English demonstration egg
trains. It's official name is the South
Wales demonstration train. 1t bears
aloft It's title in big lettering and on
either side are the names of the two
societies which have organized the
endeavor. The Agricultural Organiza-
ton society, in which the agriculturist
cooperation of England is focused, is
one. The National Poultry Organiza-
ton society. whence the idea ema-
mated, is the other.
The train is a pioneer. Since the
value of cooperation in the poultry in
dustry was discovered requests for
the last six years the society
has striven to interest a rather
lethargic public and less than thirty
depots were started 1t is now ex-
pected that 100 will be organized be.
fore the year is out and this hundred
represents only a percentage of eligi-
BILE localities.
So egg trains can be expected pres
emily to travel east and north as
well as west. The train which trav-
erses the south of South Wales is
rather like the hare In a paper chase.
1t drops literature behind it wherever
1t goes and a large pack. 1t is hoped.
will pick up the trail and follow the
lead.
The train is first and foremost mis-
sionary. Britain, as we'll as Wales. Is
in outer darkness from the point of
view OF the scientific poulterer, and
In his dialect requires above all
things instruction in Gambling" The
charge is that Wales does not know
good fowl when II sees II, which Is
seldom. 1t is innocent of the arts of
examining and of trusting even such
fowls as II produces. 1t has yet to
discover the value OF the breakfast
egg. and is totally unaddicted to the
necessary precaution of passing each
egg in front Of bright light before
handing IL on to the consumer.
Welshmen are unaware of the dis.
covery, which was well known to Ro-
man poultry keepers 1000 years ago,
that infertile eggs remain breakfast
eggs" longer than the fertile. In
short the poultryman's art Is in a bad
way westward.
The missionary train is modelled ex-
actY on Its American prototype. Pral.
RE farmers. hungry for scientific
knowledge, flock even from great dis.
tances to the stopping places Of the.
agricultural demonstration trains,
which are sent out frequently by a
scientific government working through
scientific institutions. They find on
at the siding Just what the
Welsh farmers In the slii-es OF Car
marthen, Cardigan and Pembroke
VIII find al intervals.

WILLING to Pay for Hammer.

When the British square at the bat
tie of Abu Klea, in the Nubian des-
ert. was penetrated by the dervishes,
one OF them attempted to spear gun
ner who was in the act of ramming
home a charge. The Briton Drained
the Sudanese, but the hammer head
split on the mans hard skull. Next day
the gunner was sent for. Mistaking
the reason, and knowing from expert.
ence that soldiers are charged for
government property which they
break, he led off with: Please, sir,
I'm very sorry / broke the hammer,
but ! never thought the fellows head
could be so hard. I'll pay for the
hammer so as to hear no more OF
the case"

DAUGHTER OF EDER BAKER
Death Comes as the Result
Of Heart Trouble.
Daughter of Rev. George Baker
Founder of Baptist Church-Onc
OF The First White Children Born
in MariOn--Funeral Saturday.

Wednesday evening at S:20 o'clock
the angel of death laid its hand upon
the brow of one of Marion's oldest
citizens, Mrs. Louisa Jane Johnstone,
widow of Lawyer John G. Johnstone.
Death came at Mrs. Johnstone's home
on South State street, as a result of
heart trouble For the last two years
of her life, the deceased had been in
failing health, but It was but FIVE
days ago that the illness which caused
her death confined her to her bed.
Mrs. Johnstone was the daughter
of Rev. George w. Baker, the founder
of the Baptist church of this city.
She was also the granddaughter Of
Eber Baker. the founder of the city
of Marion. and was one of the first
white children born in Marion. Mrs
tombstone was born May 22, 1886. On
October 10. 1856 she was united in
marriage to Attorney John G. John
stone, whose death occurred five years
ago. To this union We're born three
children. Mrs. Genevra Johnstone-
Bishop of this city, Orland W. John
stone of Ironwood, Michigan and
Homer G. Johnstone OF New York
City.
Besides the children, one brother
Eber S. Baker, of wichita, Kansas,
survives to mourn her loss.
Mrs. TOMBSTONE was an earnest
worker in the Baptist church, always
a willing helper I'm every charitable
undertaking, and a true, faithful
christian. Her unfailing oheerfulness
and patience in the last hours of her
life, endeared her to all who came in

Manager Charles w. Mason, of the
local Western Union office, today an
nounced an important innovation in
the company service. II follows:
"The Western Union Telegraph com
pany announces today another
innovation in telegraph service called
the Special ocean mail service" design
ed to save time in foreign correspon-
dence. A letter from san Francisco
to London requires as b1uch time
crossing the continent as 1t does cross
ing the ocean. A New York merchant
writing in Yokahoma must post his
letter practically a week before the
mail steamer sails from san Francis
co or Van Couver. The Western Un-
ion has arranged for the use of its
night letter and Other telegraphic
service I'm connection with outgoing
ocean mails so that this week of
transcontinental time may be saved.
It's New York office will receive tele-
grams from. any part Of the country
destined to European addresses and
will forward then i'm a sealed special
ly addressed envelope by first outgo-
ing Atlantic steamship mail The same
plan will be followed in san Fran
cisco, Seattle and Van Couver for
trans-Paclhc mails. This will enable
to be dispatched from
any point in the United states for
an ocean mail within few hours of
sailing time.
"The only charge in addition to
the usual telegraph tolls to the
ocean mail post will be five cents for
kilograms should bear the
Isusl NAH address ,f the foreign
for whom they are in
tended and marked "Care Ocean Mail,
New York. San Francisco. Seattle or

charge will be made for the address"
