EGG TESTER IS

When the farmer begins TO save

ally wonders how many of them are
fertile and how many are worthless
for Matching. A great many make

With very little time and labor
and practically no expense whatever
the farmer can make an egg tester
with which he can tell the fertile from
the infertile eggs. BY testing the eggs
before placing them under the hen in
the incubator, the farmer can increase
the percentage of eggs hatched-in
many cases this percentage can al.
most be doubled.
To make the tester take cracker

hang around the post Office corner
and there won't be anything doing.
At least that is the present state
of affairs at Marshall. The post
master over there has been notified
to stop handing out mail on Sunday
and give the office employees full
days rest.
King Has No Orders
Postmaster A. E King has received
no orders as yet but he says ne und-
erstands indirectly that such ruling
has been made and he will not be
surprised when the order drops in.
Perhaps he won't be disappointed.
Want Rest For Employees
Some time ago a movement was
started to secure a rest for the post
office employees and letter carriers.
In the first and second class offices
in the past the mail has been distri-
buted and patrons we're privileged
TO get their mail during the day.
The letter carriers were obliged to
go to the office and sort the mail and
stand at the window and hand it out.
Only Little While
No more of this says the attorney
general. 1t therefore seems quite
certain that it is only matter OF a
little time until the order goes into
effect in Redwood Falls.
On the whole the move may be in
the right direction though it will be
felt as hardship by good many |
people for while after being adopt

However. there is no appeal and
sublime fortitude on the part Of the
