different members, collecting their
eggs. The collector gets small com
mission from one or two ore Danish
pound for the eggs collected, but he
has to stand the loss by breakages
over one per cent. The individual
members must stamp plainly all the
eggs on the broad end with the
registered number of the local society
and the member. Therefore each
member has his own rubber stamp
and ink bought from the society for
twenty five ore each. These eggs are
not sold by the score or dozen, but
only by weight, the best way to do 1T.
The collector pays for the eggs after
they are weighed, and writes down In
the members control book not alone
the amount which he has paid, but
also the weight and price. The COM
mittee of the head society issues the
price every week and sends com
munication to each local society.
When the collector gets home he
puts the eggs in large pine cases pro-
vided with cardboard sections and
holding from 500 to 1000 each. In
the small societies. which have no
driving collectors, the members must
deliver their eggs, for instance, to
the dairy manufactor, or to the supply
association, or to the collector. or
course the best way is to have driv-
ing collector.
The bylaws for the small local
societies are practically quite the
same. Each of them has it's own COM
mittee, leader, and sends represent
alive, usually the leader, every year
to the large meeting of the head
society. Rules of the most stringent
nature are imposed, as the principal
object of the head society is to deliver
to the English market the best pos
sible produce OF new laid eggs. There
fore each egg delivered must only be
laid by the members own hens, and
on the other hand he has to forward
all eggs produced except those used
for Matching and for home consump-
ton in the household. This prevents
members selling eggs to others who.
at certain times of the year as re-
suit of the competition, give a few
more ore per pound. Further, the
regulations provide that the eggs
m ust be carefully gathered at least
every day in the cold time of the year
and twice or three times day when
the weather is hot. This is demanded
to prevent the eggs being spoiled or
cracked by unreasonable brooding
hens. All eggs gathered must at all
times be protected against sunshine.
dampness and frost, and china eggs
must remain in every nest, which, as
we'll as the house, must be kept as
clean as possible. Another point of
great value is that all eggs delivered
to the collector must be new laid and
absolutely clean without being wash
ed, as this spoils the eggs, which are

Los ANGELES BUSINESS MEN CONFER
REGARDING COLORADO RIVER WORKS

Los Angeles Examiners Great en-
ihusiasm in the project of river regu-
s2tion in southern California was man
dested on the part of 125 representa-
hye local business men who attended
The second meeting of the ways and
means committee of the Arizona and
California river regulation commission
AT the Westminster hotel yesterday
aoou
AS a manifestation of their deter
nination to get behind the compre-
aensive plan of improvement. which
embraces the checking of the overflow
waters of the San Joaquin and Colo
rado rivers and the utilization of this
water in the bringing into cultivation
Of hundreds of thousands of acres of
arid land, S140O was subscribed by the
merchants to further the movement.
H. z. Osborne, president of the Cham
Der of Commerce. presided over the
meeting in place of w B. Raymond,
chairman of the ways and means COM
mittee of the commission. The first
speaker called upon was w. H. Hola-
bird of the California Development
Company, who unqualifedly endorsed
the project. and enumerated the great
sShSllS - lHt Imperial NdlltN lndl
would follow.
George H Maxwell, executive direct
of the commission, talked on what
was to be done. and how it was to
be accomplished. He unfolded the
plans for the furthering of the move
ment, and for the gaining of the pass
age of the Knowlands bill at the next
congress, the object of which is to OBJ
-,y,
s1C,000,00G a year for a period of 10
years for the building of dams erd
reservoirs to check the flow of the
river waters at their sources. and a
distributing system for the appropri-
ate use of the waters thus gathered
Maxwell suggested that the busin asS
men of Los Angeles work among their
friends in order to get a strong senti-
ment in this section behind the move
ment, and also that they write to the
large companies in the East of whom
they purchase goods. in order that
much pressure may be brought to bear
from other sections Of the country to
secure the passage of the house Dill
az the next congress.

The object of the officials of the
Arizona and California river regula-
tion commission is to set at least 20
of the foremost business men of this
section behind the movement.
Tomorrow Colorado river flood
water storage convention will be held
in Blanchard hall under the auspices
of the Arizona and California river
regulation commission. The conven-
tion will be open to all. Those inter
ested in conserving the flood waters
of the Colorado river, whether for irri
CATION or prevention of damage by
flood, or in developing a rich territory
tributary to Los Angeles are urged to
attend. 1t is expected that all of the
interests involved will be fully rep
resented.
The convention follows one held in
Arizona, and in the movement to reg
ulate the flow of the Colorado river
California and Arizona are working
together. The situation will be fully
examined and discussed, and conclu-
SiOHS Will De dIIlNeu al dS 70 just
what requests will be made of con-
gress.
To the people holding land or dwell
ing along the borders of the Colorado
river, the river presents a two-fold
menace. At the time of the heavy
flow due to the rapid melting of the
SHOWS at the source the river over
flows its banks, carries away levees
and restraining walls and floods towns
and spoils much valuable land under
with occasional loss of life
resulting. number of towns along
the bank are in constant danger in
one season of the year
Last season the river rose uneXpect-
edly and caused great damage. The
president when appealed to for assist
