form or another, they furnish
one OF the strongest assets for the house
wives culinary repertoire. If she has
her own egg supply she can follow the
example of the cold storage people who
are even now packing away their supplies
for the months when hens will not lay in
spite of urgent cntreaty and the best OF
care. The first eggs to reach the great
packing houses come from the far south.
In March the middle states send in thei..
supply for storage. and in April and May
eggs from the eastern states and north
reach the New York packing houses in
great quantities.
Before the end of June there are often
a thousand carloads ready to be stored
for the dull season, when eggs is eggs
and the price goes up by bounds. De-
spite the demand for strictly fresh
eggs at all seasons of the year. midwinter
as well as early spring, and the assertions
of the egg dealer that eggs at III or GO
cents dozen are all that they claim To
be there is small doubt but that the ma
ioritN of the labeled strictly fresh are
merely fresh from cold storage There is
no way of coercing a hen beyond kind
treatment, warm henhouse and vel

cold storage of eggs is one Of the greatest
conveniences of modern times, but a con

full storage of eggs consists in keeping
/ them at only two degrees below the freez
ing point in surroundings of absolute
! cleanliness. and in sorting those that have
begun to be stale from those that are
strictly fresh The first thing to be
considered in packing eggs is that they

condition This is imperative. In pack
ing eggs at home several methods are in
vogue, the best being the use of water

Editors Note-The following verses

have joined in your toasts, now Join
in mine:
Yes, join in this health as / rise to
the theme:
AS inspired as love. and as bright as
bright as dream,
With cup Of devotion, the vintage
of life,
l drink to that angel the travelling
mems wife.
Yes, I drink to that creature whose
lot Is to wait
For the sound Of a football, the latch
on the gate;
Who welcomes the traveller home from
his trip. with joy in her heart, and
love on her lip;
Who nestles beside him and sweetly
beg1liles
His careburden thoughts with care
less smiles.
Who fervently prays, as she kneels
down to pack,
With tear trimming eyelids, the drum
mer's grip sack,
That the Lord may watch over the
wandering feet,
Then bids him goodby with face
bravely sweet;
And when, through the shadows. his
form disappears,
Gives way to her sorrow in pitiful
tears.
Who turns to the door to her boy, it
may be,
Who joins her in weeping and climbs
to her knee
She kisses him fondly, and tucks him
in bed,
When his feet have been bathed and
his prayers have been said;
Then follows to slumber that Is
troubled with dreams
OF a wreck and a death by the rain
swollen streams.
Anxiety born of sweet, loyal life,
Gives careworn look to travellers
wife:
But her voice grows softer along with
the years,
Her soul grows brighter with baptism
of tears;
And the woman is dearer by far to
his heart,
Than the maiden who faItered, "TiIl
death do us part"
They tell Of court in country of
light,
Where the wrongs of this world are
at length set Alright;
May the woman whose soul is the
light of our hearth,
Receive them in peace that she knows
not the earth.
This is my toast and the prayer of
my life
That forever is pledged to travelling
mans wife.

TRAVELLING men
and The ELKS
CENTER OF STATE WILL BE MEG
CA OF TRAVELLING statesmen
AND ELks WITH INSTALLATION
OF MANDAN LODGE AND TRAv-
ELERs DAY ON SAME DATE.

With commercial travellers day at
the North Dakota state industrial ex-
position at Bismarck and the installa-
ton Of the new Mandan lodge of B.
p. o. Elks falling on the same day,
Saturday, Oct. IA, both the knights Of
the grip and the jolly members of the
antlered family will have the shores
of the Missouri river as their mecca
next month.
The bridge between the state capt.
tai and the Morton county seat will
doubtless be much travelled on that
occasion, for there will likely be much
intercourse between the two cities
Many of the commercial travellers are
Elks so that gives them common inter-
est in both events.
The special day at the exposition
will in all probability draw all the
travelling statesmen of North Dakota
to Bismarck during the last day of
the big show and in the evening all
who are Elks will probably take the
train over to Mandan to witness the
installation of the new lodge of the
Benevolent and Protective Order of
Elks.
Deputy Grand Exalted Ruler Addi-
son Leech of Fargo is receiving much
praise for the wisdom he displayed
in setting the date of the installation
on the same day of the travellers at
the exposition. In this way good
crowd is assured at both the exposi-
ton and the installation. which will
probably be one Of the most preten-
tious held in the state in long time.

LAST CHANCE FOR

applications to be presented tonight,
which, with the twenty applications
we had left over from the last meet
ing, will make about thirty two all told
We have no way OF knowing just what
our competitors down in Minneapolis
and St Paul are doing in the way of
rustling, although reports from there
indicate that nobody Is moving slowly
down that way in this contest.
Personally Mr.. Grasse and /, along
with the rest of the officials, have de-
voted every minute we could to this
contest hoping that Fargo will get to
retain these handsome silk flags
which for the last six months have
been in our possession. This has only
been long enough to make me want to
keep them as our permanent property
They are handsome trophies and EN-
blematic of what our jurisdiction rep
resented until the recent convention
which was held in this city last June,
at which time Canada was granted q
separate charter.
Now we want to hurry this matter.
Tonight there will be session that
will be worth the while Of every trav-
cling salesman who belongs to the
council to attend. What we will do
there will be up-to- date and right to
the point, and every man will have
an interesting and lively time. For my
own part ! am quite anxious to see
this contest over. and I think the 9TH
