A number OF requests were received by
the Booklovers' Contest editor yesterday
for copies OF the binder which will be
issued Wednesday which has been de-
signed as a hle for the puzzles printed
daily in The Washington Herald Book
lovers Contest.
The impression has gone around that
the binders are to be distributed free Of

rect this impression. The binders, which
have been made especially for use in the
contest, and which were printed and pre-
pared at considerable cost, will be sold

pictures will be given away with each
binder. and after the full set has been
published a full set will accompany the
binder.
Each binder contains sixty-ive pages,
a page for each puzzle In its proper order.
and serves as a neat folder in which TO
submit the answers TO the contest editor.
The mere fact that the answers are not
submitted in a binder will have no effect
on the decision of the judges in determ-
lining the winners IN the contest. but for
the sake Of neatness a binder is desirable.

TESTING EGGS WITH X.RAYS.

The National Association of Poultrymen Of
England has investigated scheme for testing the
freshness of eggs by means Of the Mays, says
Harper's Weekly. A dark room is used in which
a Crookes vacuum tube is suspended The tube
is covered with shade that leaves an opening just
large enough for hens egg. The florescent screen
is placed horizontally beneath the opening, so that
the operator the king of shadow the egg
throws with the leas, los. of time II the image
is quite clear the egg is strictly fresh and is
placed in the first class If the screen shows a
small spot or shadow the egg is placed in the sec
ond class II the spot is large the egg is rejected
The association is made up Of forty subsidiary
societies, distributed over twenty districts and its
members supply the London market with abou,
ZOO, 900 eggs every week. The larger houses han
die only "canded" eggs But the Mays enable
the examiner to discover spots that are quite in
visible when the ordinary candling" is used as
a means OF testing. The egg merchants Of Den

WHERE LOSS IS PERMITTED.

We are told by the Worlds Work tina, the

by the New York State Food investigating Com.
mission established the fact that this enormous diff
ference is due very largely to uneconomcal'' and
chaotic system of handling food products The
commission estimates this waste at IS per cent and
il proposes reforms which. it estimates, would re-
duoe this waste 90 millions of dollars year
All OF this is interesting because it is proof of
what Farm and Ranch has maintained namely
that the high cos of living in its final analysis i,
a result OF the high cost Of selling Ii costs too
much to place the producers articles on the tables
of the consumer !, will be seen from the above
that after the various articles of food have reached
the city of New York the consumer has further
charge of so millions of dollars year as resul,
Of waste in handling the products and unnecessary
profits to mddemen.
1t is encouraging to note that the consumer is
getting tired OF paying for so much waste and is
anxious to join the producer to reduce the cost Of
selling. So long the consumer is willing to pay
this cost just so long will it be high The produce,
has not had the help of the consumer in reducing
unnecessary expense in marketing and hence he has
had many difficulties in cheaper marketing But
when the consumer is willing to meet the producer
half way, progress will be made.
by organization II would be much easier and
cheaper for articles OF food to be delivered to a
dozen families who unite in buying than to one
Farmers dairymen, fruit and truck growers could
supply cooperative league with these products
at much less expense than they are now sold and
this would not only more profits for the pro-
Queer, but it would also mean cheaper living for
the consumer This involves an economic pnn-
ciple in which our nation should be interested

AUTO|STS MAKE
WONDERFUL ESCAPE
c. v. Passenger Train Hits Machine
At Halfway But Occupants Escape
With Only Bruises

A remarkable escape from instant
death or frightful injuries occurred
Thursday morning at Halfway, when
Cumberland Valley passenger train
No. struck party of five AUTOMOBILE
lists, who attempted to cross the
track while on their way to Hagers-
town.
Those in the auto were Mr.. and
Mrs. George Reynolds and the form
er's mother, Mrs. John T. Reynolds,
of near Cumbo; Miss Cora Lemaster.
near Bedington; and James Williams
OF Hagerstown. Mr.. Reynolds was
driving the machine.
AS they got near the c. V. crossing
at Halfway. Williams, who had sold
the machine to young Reynolds and
was along teaching him to run il,
warned Reynolds, 1t is said not to at
tempt to cross the track before the
oncoming train, but the latter thought
they could make it, Then Williams
jumped. The moment the auto reach
ed the track the engine struck it
amidships, hurting the occupants in
TO the air. smashing the machine and
disabling the engine.
The injured persons were carried
into a nearby house and phone mes
sage sent to Hagerstown for another
engine to take them to the hospital
there. The four injured were then
hurried to the Hagerstown hospital
where il was discovered that none of
them was dangerously or even very
seriously hurI, and all are expected to
be out in day or two, their injuries
being confined to bruises and cuts
about the body ad head
1t was reported here shortly after
noon today that one of che ladies died
before they got her to Hagerstown
and another would not survive her
injuries. But, happily, this report
was unfounded.
The accident caused the train, due
here at 11:05 a. m, to be an hour
late in arriving. 1t may be added
that this train does not stop at Half
way and was making its usual time
when il hit the auto.

6ELiNGToN WAS
VISITED BY FIRE
Vacant Dwelling Partially Destroyed
With Loss Of $f,5oo-orIgin OF
Fire Unknown

Belington, June 27--A small fire
made its appearance about l a. m. in
the vacant dwelling on the corner OF
Grim avenue and Walnut street, be-
longing to w. T. George and II. A.
Monahan The cause of the fire is I'M
known, but is probably the result OF
ignition by electric wires, or possibly
by the carelessness of some unlimited
guests. The fire seemed to start on the
second floor and had fair start when
the alarm was given. The boys made
a quick response, and were soon on
tho ground readily got the flames I'M
der control. This was not until there
had been considerable damage done to
the building. The loss to the owners
will probably reach $500 with no in
surance.
