FRESH EGGS IN GOOD DEMAND
Little More Attention to Details vii
Result In Profit, Repsylns Time
and Labor.

By PROF. 4. C. PHILLIPS. Kansas.)
The demand for eggs seems practi.
cally unlimited, more especially for
the better grades. The growth OF the
storage industry has tended to equal
lie prices by increasing the de-
mand IN summer when fresh eggs
are plentiful and supplying the deh.
cheney in winter when fresh eggs are
scarce.
Since the demand Is greatest for
the best grades, it seems obvious that
q little more attention 10 details VIII

extra tine and labor involved.

only the loss of a camera.
II was while making these fights

erward said he could have caught the
boat so miles outside New York Just
as easily.
II would also seem that the water
machine would be valuable for life
saving purposes along the coast. Dur
Ing the Chicago aviation. meet last
August an aviator lost control while
flying and was pitched into the water.
Hugh Robinson was performing circles
In a Curtiss machine. Seeing his fell
low fier in distress. he few TO the res
cue at q mile a minute. reached the
spot. landed on the water alongside the
submerged aeroplane and offered to
give the plot a lift. All this In less
than n minute.
On another occasion Naval Aviator
Herbster while carrying n passenger
over San Diego Bay had some mis-
hap in alighting and turned over. This
was about half a mile from the shore.
Long before motor boats could reach
the spot Harry Atwood had launched
his machine from the beach and In
less than q minute was to the rescue
OF Mr.. Herbster and his passenger.
Neither was hurt. and both preferred
to stay by their machine. which was
upside down In the water. until a mo-
tor boat came to tow It to shore.
A Hammondsport physician who had
received an urgent call to see q pa.

aviator to take him there. The pa

the time saved was important.

There have been some striking IL
Illustrations OF this. For instance, on
February 10 Hugh Robinson while fly
Ing at Antilles. rear Nice. France,
started out 10 give a demonstration
In rough weather. When he attempt
ed TO come down the shore was crowd
ed with spectators and he was forced
10 descend on the water. As he was
about 10 settle a big wave rolled up
and hit the tail OF the machine, pitch

capped with a d%renching.
Two years before John b. Moisant
was killed in just such n fall on land.
While making n fight OF $40 miles
along the Mississippi river Robinson's
motor stopped out over the river. He
reached the water. drifted shoreward
and was towed back to the starting
point by a boat.
II is this margin Of safety that
makes the hydro-aeroplane popular
with the sportsman. who heretofore
has hesitated about taking up flying
for the reason that the sensation did
not Justify the risk. Aeroplane build
ers both In Europe and America have
awakened TO the situation and are
turning out machines fitted with floats
or hydros.

throughout the country have been i'm

hydro aeroplane and are doing their

Pretty Home wedding is Sole M
nized in Sank Centre
A DELIGHTFUL AFFAIR
Miss Jessie Thomson of This City
Becomes the Wife of Bert
Butler of Willard

AT 1890 a. NJ, Saturday, September
/, at the home of the brides mother,
Mrs. V. NJ. Thomson in this city, &C.
Cured the marriage Of Miss Jessie
Thomson to Mr.. Herbert Butler Of
Willard.
The wedding wasa quiet home af-
fair, the only guests present being the
immediate relatives of the bride and
groom.
The ceremony was performed in the
living room. which was prettily decor
ated for the occasion with white as
tiers. The bride wore a dark blue
travelling dress and was unattended.
She carried white roses. Rev. w. j.
Brown, pastor of the Congregational
church, performed the ceremony, u.s.
ing the ring service. Miss Mary Wat
son played the wedding march.
After congra ulations, wedding
breakfast was served, the dining room
being decorated with pink asters and
sweet peas. The bride and groom
were the recipients of many beautiful
and useful wedding gifts. Misses
Harriet Erwin and Mary Watson serv-
ed the guests at the breakfast.
Mr.. and Mrs. Butler departed at
noon for the cities, there to spend a
week preparatory to taking up their
home at Willard.
The bride is a Sank Centre girl,
having been born and spent her life
here. She, as we'll as the groom, grad
uated from the Sank Centre high
school in 1910. She is we'll known
and popular young lady in the young
er set and has many friends and ac-
quaintances.
The groom is the only son of Mr..
and Mrs. w. r. Butler of Willard;
where he is in business with his faith
er. He is a most estimable young
man with a wide circle of friends.

FOR GOVERNOR.

A hot spell lasting a week struck
Minnesota, including Sank Centre last
week. The mercury scared toward
the top of the tube, registering near
100 in the shade for several days.
Life was we'll nigh uncomfortable. But
the average man was willing to en-
dure considerable discomfort because
the corn crop needed just such wealth
er to mature it. The corn crop bids
fair to be the largest Minnesota has
ever seen.
