DIFFICULT TO GRADE EGGS
sixteen-candIe Power Electric Light Is Most Desirable-Each One
 Examined Separately.

Eggs are among the most difficult of food products to grade. This is because each egg must be considered separately and because the actual substance of the egg cannot be exam Ined without destroying the egg.
 From external appearance eggs can be selected for size, cleanliness of shell and freedom from cracks. This is the common method of grading in early spring. when the eggs are uni formly of good quality. Later in the season the egg candle is used In the technical sense any kind of a light may be used for an egg candle. A sixteen-candle power electric lamp is the most desirable. The light is inclosed in a box or tin cylinder, in size of a half dollar. The room be ing darkened. the candler holds the egg to the light, large. end upward, and gives 1t quick turn in order to view all sides and to cause the con tents to whirl within the she'll
 To the expert this process reveals the actual condition of the egg to an extent that the novice can hardly realize. The art of egg candling can not be readily taught by the worded description. One who wishes to learn 1t had best go to an expert. or he may begin unaided, and by breaking many eggs learn the essential points.
 Eggs when laid differ considerably in size. but otherwise are very uni form product The purpose of the egg in nature requires that this be the case, because the contents of the egg must be so proportioned as to form the chick without surplus or waste, and this requires a chemical composition that varies but slightly.
 For food purposes all fresh eggs are practically equal. The tint of the yolk varies somewhat, being more yellow when green food has been sup piled the hens Occasionally when hens eat unusual quantities of green feed the yolks show a greenish brown tint and appear dark to the candle. Such eggs are called grass eggs. They are perfectly wholesome
 An opinion exists among egg men that the white of the spring egg Is of finer quality and will stand up bet ter than that of summer eggs. This Is true enough of commercial eggs. but the difference is chiefly. if not en- irely, due to external factors that act upon the egg after 1t is laid
 The flavor or odor of an egg may be noticeably influenced by the feed of the hen. This has been demon strated by feeding hens heavily on onion tops or garlic.

TELL TRUTH ABOUT MELONS
Growers Must Not Mark Packages Rocky Ford" Unless cantaIoupe
 Ars Really From Colorado.

The government says growers must not label packages Rocky Ford Seed Melons" or any other name containing the real thing-that is, they must be grown in the Rocky Ford district of Colorado and the government board of food inspection says:
 "The use of geographical name shall not be permitted in connection with a food or drug product not manufactured or produced in that place, when such name indicates that the article was manufactured or produced in that place.
 'The Rocky Ford melon is one of the older varieties of melons which, in the environment of Rocky Ford. Colo. has attained particular excel lence.
 "The same remark applies to the Indian river oranges of Florida. They are not a new variety, but various varieties which in the environment of the Indian river have attained unusual excellence"
 This is a remarkable decision. There is no reason why melons from any other section should be sold upon the reputation of the Rocky Ford melons. they will establish a reputation of their own; If they are not as good, they don't deserve it, and should not be permitted to pass under false col ors.
 Fruit growers generally should take note of this decision for 1t will apply to every other similar case where packages have been marked with a geographical name
 Sell your products for what they actually are-by so doing you will es- tablish a reputation of your own and will not be dependent upon the repu- tation of others.

MONUMENT TOPERRY
Hero of Lake Erie to Have
 Memorial.
Big Celebration Is Planned in Honor of American Commodore Who De- feated the British in Memor-
 able Engagement

Cleveland, O.-Doubtless everybody has read in the newspapers of an act of congress, passed at the recent ses- sion. for the commemoration of the centennial anniversary of the battle of Lake Erie. which was fought by Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry against British fleet under Captain Barclay of Put-in-Bay. An appropria- ton of $25O.000 was made as a con tribution toward a general fund to pay for suitable monument. and the president was authorized to appoint three commissioners.
 The centennial celebration had aI- ready been agitated for two years in Ohio and the legislature of the state had already appropriated $SO.OOO The legislature of Pennsylvania had ap- propriated $100.O0O and the Rhode Island legislature had appropriated $25.000 by a unanimous vote. but the governor vetoed the bill after 1t had adjourned.
 Bills have been introduced in the legislatures of New York for 5000. in Illinois and Wisconsin for $5O.OOO each and 1t is expected that Kentucky will do equally well, because that state furnished nearly all the soldiers for General Harrison's army in the war of 1872. and a squad of the gun ners in Commodore Perry's fleet. A good deal is expected from Michigan, but nothing has been done there yet except to appoint a commission to meet with those representing the na- tional government and Ohio. Pennsyl- vania. New York. Rhode Island, Ken lucky. Wisconsin and Illinois.
 It Is proposed to erect a lofty col umn. at least 45O feet high. with a lighthouse and a wireless telegraph office at the top, and at the base an auditorium that will seat at least l,2OO people Within the shaft 1t is pro posed to have historical. military and naval museums and rendezvous for the naval militia and the yacht clubs on the lakes. It is also proposed to bring from the harbor of Havana one of the masts of the battleship Maine to be used as a flagstaff. Several 12- inch guns from the Oregon and from the Spanish battleship Viscaya are to oSSui Su anu uSeu as ornaments aL tue base of the monument.
 While the Perry victory will not be celebrated until 1913. arrangements are already under way in various lake ports along the lower Lake Erie pre- pairing for the occasion which will fit- tingly mark the one hundredth anni- versary of Perry's victory. Not only will the various state national guards men be sent to the lake region for

 Then came the children of The Nest" as the girls home at ClaEee2n is called.

 The industrial and land colony at Hadleigh, Essex, where more than and intensive garden culture is car ried on, was represented by a pro cession of gardeners, beekeepers, shep- herds, poultry and dairy farmers, car rying poultry or dairy produce, fruits or vegetables or the implements of their labor. The farm proper carries more than 1000 head of horses, cattle, sheep and lambs and pigs, grows large quantities of grain and roots and will soon be busy haymaking and harvest ing.
 The work of the emigration depart ment was also indicated by means of tableaux and statistics were given showing that the army now carries on its social agencies in f1fty-six coun- tries and breaches salvation in thirty nine languages, while 1t possesses 954 social institutions, 621 day schools and twelve military and naval homes, in addition to more than 100000 officers of all ranks.
