Preserving Eggs.

The logical time to put eggs away is
in March, April, or May, when they are
cheap. They must be unquestionably
fresh. The ideal way is to drop them
in the solution as soon as they are
brought from the nest When this can
not be done one should secure them not
more than three days after they are
laid. Soiled eggs, cracked ones, OF
those that have been washed, can not
be used.
Silicate of soda is thick, syrupy
liquid sold by the pound at drug stores.
In ten-pound lots the price is usually
ten cents per pound for the best grade.
Ten pounds will make enough solution
to cover fifty dozen eggs, making the
cost two cents per dozen. There are
three grades of silicate of soda on tho
market. An inferior quality costs a
trife less than the best, but the saving
may result in loss of eggs.
To prepare the solution, stir one part
of silicate of soda into sixteen parts of
water that has been boiled, cooled, and
measured.

TAFT TELLS JONES WHY
HE Modified SOLDIERS

Senator Jones, at invitation of the
president, called at the White House
Saturday and discussed the Mexican
situation and the causes leading up
to the mobilization of troops along the
southern boundary. President Taft, in
confidence, showed Senator Jones the
official record on which he based his
order concentrating troops along the
Mexican line, and showed him fully his
reasons for taking such a drastic step.
Senator Jones, after getting this ex-
PLANTATION, expressed the opinion that
the president was entirely justified in
the course he had taken.
Senator Jones went so far as to say
that Mexico was the only country in
volved in this movement, and that the
japanese did not figure in the affair
in any way.

ROOSEVELT AT RENO, NEW.
Scores the Divorce Colony and Gives
High Praise to Y. M. 9. A.-Closer
Religious Affiliations

Reno, New, April Reno s divorce
colony was the object of Theodore
Roosevelt s fire today during his per-
sonal address, delivered to a crowd Of
several thousands grouped about the
courthouse steps.
''It is one colony of which you want
to rid yourselves" Mr.. Roosevelt de-
clared. 81 do not care what you do
with those of your own state who seek
divorces, but keep citizens of other
states who want divorces out of Nevada.
Do not allow yourselves to be deceived
by the argument that such colony
brings money to your city. You can t
afford to have that kind of money
brought here. Keep that whole colony
out. -
Mr. Roosevelt declared that the di-
vorce seekers who came to Nevada were
endeavoring to evade their duty and
that such citizens could be of no benefit
to this state.
Congratulating Reno upon the Young
Men S Christian Association building,
just completed here, Mr. Roosevelt said
that he had not known until a recent
controversy arose, that the Catholic
and Jews, who, he said, were often
among the most liberal contributors to
its work, were denied the right of hold
ing positions upon the managerial
boards of the association. This he char
acterized as the grossest injustice, and
advised for closer cooperation of the
various religious sects.

usual With six veterans in their boat
to three for Oxford, the Cantabs
counted upon their crew to stem the
dark blues tide of victory. The Cam
bridge oarsmen performed splendidly.
but it was the irony of fate that the
Oxonians should prove stronger than
expected and win the race in the record
breaking time of IS minutes 20 seconds,
