STOP bREAkAGE
 SHIPPING EGGS
Millions to be Saved to Industry Yielding $500, ,ooo, 900 Each
 Year.

To reduce the enormous break age of eggs in transit, which yearly causes a Joss of millions of dollars to producers and rais- es the price of eggs for consum- CTS, the United States Department of Agriculture, through it's Bu- reau of Chemistry, is making ex- periments to determine the safe st manner of packing eggs for long and short shipment by rail. The waste from the breakage of eggs, according to the Year Book, in New York City alone in one year was i37,8O4,768 eggs, or more than fl l,5OO,OOO dozens, out of total consumption in 1909 of 27,698,600 dozens of eggs. In other words, about nine per cent of all eggs received in New York were cracked, and of these q large number wer, unfit for food :se. The egg supply of largs' Cities, and particularly of New York, las to come from a long di,ta:"e. because, according to the thirteenth census, the Mid dle Atlantic states in 1900 sold only enough to supply New York alone if every egg had been sent 70 that point. For the Eastern coast cities the distant corn dis tries are practically the sole source of supply, because the lit tle gray ndn does not have to scratch so hard for a living in the corn field as she does where grain is scarce. Increasing CO., sumption of eggs adds to the dis tanCc from which eggs must come, and makes the safe ship. ment of this valuable food pro duct more and more essential. IL is rgured that the eggs now broken in shipment naturally tend t" Keep the price of this valuable food hlgtcr. The Food Research Laboratory is now engaged in shipping .ggs handled in dI'rcr- tnt ways (n long journeys {. 'iIf- f'.renl points in the Uited st ,.1s, and is carefully noting their con- HIt,on on receipt at their deiiinl- ti"n.
 Shippers, railroad men ard commission men are co-operat.- ing heartily with the Mnvestiga. tors of the government.
 Railroads contend that their damaoe losses are such as to make the carrying of eggs unpro- titab1e. The shippers and consig- nees have large sums of money tied up Tn claims and litigation with the roads. If the gOvern- ment succeeds, as it hopes to do, in devising a successful method
 f shipping eggs, it will contrib ute vastly to the poultry indus try, which amounts to half a bill lion dollars annually.

FORMER FAULKNER
man ASSASS|NATfD
BODY FOUND NEAR DALLAS
5. NJ. STALLINGS KILLED nv
UNKNOWN ASSASSINS IN
TEXAS.

Particulars were received here to-
DAY OF the death of S. NJ. Stallings
of Fort Worth, Tex, former Faux
ner county man and brother of Mrs.
j. w. Firestone of this CITY. who is
believed to have been assassinated
near Dallas some time last week. His
body, partially decomposed, with a
bullet hole through the back and the
81 ull crushed, was found last Satur-
day in field near the Belmont addi-
tion to Dallas.
The theory of the officers is that
the man was shot and when he failed
to fall to the ground at once his as
sailant struck him in the back of the
head, crushing in the skull at the
base of the brain.
According to Dallas papers, it is
believed that revenge and not rob-
bolV was the motive for Stallings'
murder. A decoy letter is thought -
have brought him to the place where
he met death. His gold watch and
sum of money in his pocket were not
disturbed by his slayer.
Stallings was reared in this county
and will be remembered by many of
the older citizens. He was formerly
chief of police at Waco, Tex, but for
several years past had been living at
Fort Worth. He was about As years
of age and is survived by his widow.

Want STORES TO
CLOSE FOR FAIR
DURING THE AFTERNOONS
PLAN TRIE D SUCCESSFULLY
AT SEARCY MAY BE ADOPT
ED HERE.

One of the leading merchants OF
the city today asked that the Log
Cabin Democrat offer the suggestion
that all the stores in the city be clos.
ed from noon until 5 o'clock p. m
during the four days of the fair
which opens here Tuesday, in order
to give to the employees an opportun.
ity to see the big county show.
The suggestion is a good one and
ought to be adopted. The plan was
tried at Searcy last year. That il
proved satisfactory is shown by the
fact that the stores were again closed
at that place during the fair this
week.
Very little business is transacted in
the stores during afternoons of fail
week. There are always big crowds
here, but the people come to see the
sights and not to trade, and what
purchases they make are usually
made in the morning.
If all the stores will agree to close
none can lose anything by it.

was reached this afternoon in the for
ty-flve years struggle to obtain votes

ed in the house of commons by John
Stuart Mill in 1867.
Alfred Lyttelton. Immediately after
Question time" moved the amend
ment to eliminate the word male
from the franchise reform bill. The
movers arguments were along famil-
ier lines. He urged the trend Of recent
Hesitation was to call women into the
councils Of the nation. Already, he
said, women had been called to as
sist in numerous departments.
Louis Harcourt. secretary OF state
for the colonies, who has not forgotten
the attempt made some months ago by
the suffragettes to burn down his an
cestral home at Nuhm park, made a
bitter assault on woman's suffrage and
on his colleagues in the cabinet. Sir
Edward Grey and David Lloyd George.
"The adoption of methods of vio-
lence," he urged. "is an indication OF
the type OF mental balance we may
expect from women If they get the
vote"

POWERS NEXT MOVE.
Balkan Allies ts Await Action Dy At.
frontsd Nations.

London, Jan. 24.-At the head
quarters Of all the peace delegations
the greatest activity and excitement
prevailed today. Cipher kilograms from
Sofia, Belgrade, Cittinje and Athens
crossed messages from London to those
capitals during the early morning
hours Before noon the heads OF the
four delegations had held several meet
ings to discuss the situation.
The allies are disposed to consider
the revolution in Constantinople as an
affront to the powers more than to
themselves Therefore they think the
powers are entitled to make the first
move. Whatever it may be and what
ever the result it can not prejudice
their future action.
Messages received from various
points in the Balkans show negotiations
concerning the next developments are
proceeding actively between the capi-
tails Of the allies. The delegates can
not be sure Of what will be their ulti.
mate attitude until they have received
identical instructions from their gov
ernments.
The delegates, however, consider that
the resumption of the war in the course
of next week is almost inevitable even
if the powers agree on active inter-
vention.
