BAD EGGS
STATE PURE FOOD DEPARTMENT
MAKING A DETERMINED
FIGHT AGAINST BAD
EGGS.

Vermillion, Aug. I'm spite of
the thousands of warning circulars
and placards sent out by the state
FOOD and drug department this year
inspectors are finding bad eggs in
many places and it has been neces-
sary to date to make thirty-eight
prosecutions on the charge of selling
or shipping eggs unfit for food. Four
teen merchants and twenty-four
farmers have been brought before
justices and forced to pay fines be
cause they failed to use sufficient
care in selecting their eggs. These
prosecutions have been made almost
exclusively in the southern part of
he state in the districts where most
of the eggs are produced. The in
spectors will work into the northern
portion of the state soon, as reports
of he marketing of bad eggs in that
section have reached the office here.
On the whole, conditions this year
are somewhat improved over former
years, the wholesale removal of the
ROSTERS from farm focks after the
rooster agitation having had a mark
ed effect on the quality of eggs re-
ceived. During the hot weather in
July the eggs We're very bad, but of
late they have shown Improvement.
One factor over which the depart
ment has no control and which is one
of the most serious obstacles in the
regulation of egg quality is the prac-
tice, still followed by a few produce
houses in the state, of buying on
what is known as the ease count"
plan. Under this plan the buyer
gives a fixed price per case for eggs
and u all risk as to quality.
Such a plan puts no premium on quail
ity, the rotten eggs bringing as much
as the good ones. Most produce
houses now recognize the unfairness
of this plan and buy eggs subject to
Gambling, that is, the eggs are candled

lions have been made may be mem

prosecutions are those of two Sioux

tor Hatch. They were each fined $10,

FORTUNE SMILES
DINING ROOM GIRL AT LAKE
PARK GOES HOME TO CLAIM
GREAT WEALTH.

Miss Mabel Peterson, who has
been employed in the dining room at
the Lake Park the past several years,
departed this morning for her home
at Jackson, Mimi, to remain, and to
participate in the luxuries of wealth,
her mother having recently become a
beneficiary in a fortune of several
million dollars. The fortune comes
from an uncle recently deceased, who
located in eastern Minnesota in the
very early days and acquired large
bodies of land which he carried along
until the section in which he lived
became settled and cities and towns
were built and his holdings increased
in value until upon his death he was
a multi-millionaire. In addition to
his land holdings, he was a large
holder of bank and other stocks. The
man who had acquired millions dur
ing his lifetime outlived his family,
and his great fortune will now be
distributed among thirteen heirs, one
of whom is Miss Mabel Peterson's
mother. knowledge of the manner
of the distribution of the estate came
to the attention of the heirs about
two months ago., but the magnitude
of it has been growing as the prop
erty was listed and appraised. Miss
Peterson's mother informed her of
their good fortune as soon as she be-
came cognizant of 1t, and desired
that she return home at once, but as
fortunes sometimes go ~glimmering
Mabel preferred to wait for more
definite results. The good news,
however, was confirmed from time to
time until the heirs are about to re-
ceive a portion of the estate to be
distributed for their immediate needs
and accordingly Mabel resigned her
position and departed for her home
to join her mother in her good for
tune. Her employers showered her
with congratulations. and a number
of her friends were at. the depot To
