SAVING EGGS IN

HEAVY LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
FARMERS BECAUSE OF NEG
LECT AND CAPELESSNESS.

Farmers o. Maury and adjoining
counties lose every year thousands of
dollars because of bad eggs" remark
ed well known produce man of the
county today. 'They lose most of
this large SUM through carelessless
and neglect Instead of gathering
the eggs eveJJ day and placing them
in cool and dark place until they
are ready TO take them to market,
many will wait until the peddler calls
or the wagon goes to market before
they take the eggs from the nest.
The result Of course IS that many OF
the eggs spoil this warm weather
They are left n the nests upon which
Daring the greater portion OF the day

WEBB LAW IN HIGH
COURT CAUSED BY
EXPRESS REFUSAL
LIQUOR DEALERS ASSOCIATION
PREFERRlNG TO MAKE A
FINAL TEST.
Case COMES FROM IOWA
Last ResorS Under Agreement, the
Losers to Take Appeal-Liquor
Dealers Expecting to Win.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 30
The action ii the United States Ex-
press Co. and the Rock Island Rail
road in refusing to accept shipments
of intoxicating liquors for delivery in
Iowa, notwithstanding the fact that
the liquor had been paid for in ad-
vance, and was intended for the Der
sonal use OF the consignees, is to
ring into the federal courts suit
that will tes. Tie constituUionality of
the new Webb law passed over the
veto of President Taft at the last
session of congress. Some of the
preliminaries ii the suit have been
arranged in the city during the past
two days by attorneys representing
the National Liquor Dealers Associa-
tion. and Inc action will be filed be-
fore one of me federal courts of Iowa
i'm a short tire and pushed up as rap
idly as follows to the supreme court
for a final decision, regardless OF
which side yios in the lower courts.
There has never been decision
raised on the question in Iowa, al
Though several times the supreme
court has rather squinted in the di-
|Tection OF a theory that would, II
adopted by the body now, hold the
Webb law to be unconstitutional. A
Square and llst footed decision is
what both sides want, AMI the forth
coming suit will be planned with a
view to having such decision render
| ed
The Webb law provides that the
| machinery CT the federal government
is 10 be used &c: the enforcement OF
state prohibition laws, and its enact
ment had been earnestly demanded
| BY the temperance people of the ccun-
/ try for twenty years prior to the ia
'orable action OF the last congress.
The suit will De prepared and brought
by lawrence Maxwell, of Cincinnati,
/ D. one of the counsel of the National
Liquor Dealers Association, an attor-
hey of wide reputation. 1t was he
who furnished the legal arguments
On which President Taft relied for
his veto of the Webb bill.
III the case should be decided by

Fmerits, it is believed by good lawyers

may win; hut If, as seems more like
y, il is decided on other and broad
er grounds, it is believed that the

court is constrained to allow the law
to stand.
The chancellcr's decision is a blow
to the independents and republicans
of the state. If it should be sustain
ed by the supreme court it would
mean that the entire machinery Of
elections in Tennessee had been
transferred to the control of the liq-
uor and ether special interests. The
election board Eamed under the pro-
visions OF the lew law is absolutely
allied with the liquor wings of both
the republican and democratic par
ties and the good gov eminent forces
in the state will be without any real
representation whatever upon future
election boar ds
Should the supreme court uphold
the chancellor's opinion it would ulti-
mately mean the repeal of the tenn,
perance laws as majorifics would be
counted at will for the liquor candi-
dates. 1t would utterly destroy the
good government fabric erected dur
ing the pas. FIVE years. The chan
cellor's decision shows the wisdom of
Senator Lea, Col Amis and others in
making an agreement with Mayor
Crump's delegation, which, if it had
been lived UP to by republicans and
independents. would have absolutely
safeguarded the election and temper
ance laws. Al ii is all may be lost
and nothing whatever has been gain.
