Cheaper Made at Home.

People who love good cake-that is,
cakes made as in We olden days, of fresh
ly churned butter, fresh eggs, and pure,
rich milk-will find il much cheaper to
make at home than buy. For so cents
they can make a cake of the best butter

cost them double this sum purchased Of
a confeotioner whose goods are guaran-
teed and reliable. And this is as it must

an occasional treat, and TO the cake lover
Ut is a treat, to indulge in a delicious.

taste. and the cost is no more than

Praise be, strictly fresh eggs are get
ting cheaper. We make this statement
with fingers crossed and breathing a
hope that the great American men OF
the breed that lays strictly fresh eggs
may live long and continue in her well
doing some one tells you that fresh
laid eggs are selling in the country at
IL and 10 cents per dozen. Straightaway
Won begin a calculation as to the profit
A your marketman makes selling such
reggs to you at "A and 20 cents. TOO
much. YOU decide, not taking into consid-
GRAFTON his expense in handling this
product his rent, clerks and delivery
boys salaries, expense OF horse ana
wagon All this figures in the transac-
ton of buying and selling that dozen Of
eggs you bought.
Our neighbor decided to go out to the
country and save the cents profit. 1t
cost her almost dollar round trip by
{ trolley that dropped her off at a cross
roads STOP with a muddy, uphill, down
dale mile and ahalf walk to the farm
house designated, to be informed that
there wasn't an egg on the place. All
had been sent to the store, where they
paid them 20 cents per dozen. Our neigh
Dor might have enjoyed her walk back
again, the country being really quite
beautiful around her, but her fear of
ors to keep her hat on her head and
her feet on the dry places gave her
scant time to observe the beauties of
nature until she reached the crossroads
stop, where she saw the fast receding
car going merrily on its cityward way
without her. leaving her a good half
hour for silent meditation and contem-
plation Neighbor is one of those CHEEKY
. philosophers, and really enjoyed relating
her "exertion." as Samantha would say.
She declared she really had not lost
. Anything by her trip, for she certainly
had more than a dollars worth of very
fresh air and a conviction that the farm
er and retail grocer were not leagued in
a conspiracy to rob the housewife. 1t
is such an easy matter to distinguish
fresh egg from the stale. In its fresh
ness the shell of the egg Is thick and
has ''bloom," like the grape or peach,
that soon rubs Off with handling. or dis
appears as the shell grows porous, and
with long standing, an egg, like the
orange or other very juicy fruits, loses
weight with age.

APPROPRIATION ASKED
FOR THE EXCISE BOARD
District Heads Want Money to Make
Effective the Jones-
Works Act.

The Commissioners, upon the recon-
Emendation of Auditor Tweedale, yester-
day transmitted to Congress an estimate
of $500 for salaries of the excise board
members in order that the new excise
law may be made effective. The Com
mssioners requested that the appropria-
ton Of $4,000 for the office force of the
present excise board, which goes out Of
existence July 1 next. be made available
for the new board.
In enacting the new excise law, Con-
gress failed to provide for any appropria-
ton. The excise commissioners, the law
stipulates, receive $500 each. A specific
appropriation will have to be made at the
present session 6f Congress. or the Dis
trict will be without funds to compensate
the officials
The appropriation bill which goes into
effect July provides an appropriation Of
"a, 200 for the Office force Of the present
board, which is to go out Of existence on
that date. This appropriation was not
repeated when the new excise law was
passed. The District Commissioners and
Auditor Tweedale are in doubt as to
whether the money can be used by the
new board. and desire Congress to spe-
officially authorize it's use for this purpose.
They point out that the duties Of the new
board will be extremely arduous during
the first year. and believe that the present
office force should be placed at its dis
posal during that period.
