bureau of labor statistics that
sea, 900, 900 worth of eggs are shipped
out of this state annually. Eggs which
are sold at the country store are
usually shipped to the nearest egg
dealer, then to the city commission
house, which disposes of them to the
jobber, who sells to the retailer, and
he to the consumer. The eggs travel
many miles and go through several
hands from the time they leave the
producer until they are consumed.
Until recently a person was able to
sell all eggs coming from the farm at
the same price. Even yet it is com
mon practice for the farmers to bring
in eggs which are unfit for food. How
ever, with our present methods OF
marketing it is possible to grade out
these eggs by the Gambling process,
Practically all eggs which go through
the regular channels of trade are can

dening report of those killed in the engagement
Full lists were being published about the Memorial
day season. The Union loss at Champions Hill
was, according to General Grants memoirs, 4lO
killed, 1874 wounded and 1877 missing. HioVey
alone lost 1000 killed, wounded and m~issing-one-
third of his command. 1t was estimated that the
Confederates lost about 5000 killed and wounoeu
and 3 ooO captured in pursuit and battle. Loring's
division. which was the right Of Pemberton's line,
never got back into Vicksburg, and Pemberton fell
back to Big Black river.
The most cheerful part of this Memorial day
news was the fact that it meant Grant had a nrm
~position between Johnston and Pemberton.
Close on the news from Champions Hill came
dispatches describing a fight at Big BLACK rlver'

sorghum as Hog Forage.

The chief value of sorghum as a hog
forage is in furnishing a great alum
dance of forage during dry, hot wealth
er, when other forage crops make but
little growth. For forage purposes
sorghum should be sown the latter
part of May or the first of June, and
it will be ready to turn the hogs on in
six weeks. 1t should be sown with the
grain drill, every hole being allowed
to SOW at the rate of n bushel an
acre. To get the best use of It as a
forage fol-. hogs 1t should not be al
lowed to become too coarse before
turning the hogs on to It. Turn the
hogs in when the forage Is n and
one-half to two feet high and at the
rate OF IL an acre. The sorghum at
this time is tender, ~succulent and most
digestible. and will give the best re-
suits.

higher price for his eggs than he sells
them for. He does this in order to get
the farmer to take it out in trade
He then marks other goods up.
Eggs are usually bought at the col
try store as they come in-good, bad
and indifferent-a practice which
places a premium on bad eggs.
There has been adopted in some
sections of the state a system which is
known as the loss off method Of
buying eggs, which results in the eggs
being candled as they are brought
from the farm, the good ones accepted
at a higher price and those which are
unfit for food being returned to the
farmer. This is a great step in ad-
vance, and where the system has been
tried 1t has resulted in an increase in
the price of eggs 8 to 5 cents a dozen;
and where the price is understood
there exists greater harmony between
the egg buyer and the producer.
Ten per cent of the eggs could be

elimination of the male bird from his
flock as soon as the breeding season
was over. An infertile egg is one
which is produced when no male bird
is present in the flock, and it will
keep better, will not hatch, will stand
I'D better and will reach the consumer
in much better condition. Some of
them will keep indefinitely, drying up
before they will rot. 1t has been esti-
mated that one-half of the losses
which occur during the summertime
could be eliminated by the removal Of
the male bird.
Things which would tend toward
the improvement of the eggs are: The
marketing of only large eggs, the sell
ing of only clean eggs, storing the
eggs in cool places, collecting eggs
from nests daily, keeping the eggs
away from bad odors, marketing at
least once a week and preventing dust
from covering and flies from running
over them.

Left Capital Vulnerable.

One hundred years ago the residents
Of Washington were seriously dis
turbed by rumors that the British
were planning an expedition for the
capture of their city. Grave as was
the danger, the authorities were slow
to move. After considerable de ay a
fleet Of gunboats and barges were as
sembled and placed under the com
mand of the veteran Commodore Bar
ney, who had served with distinction
in the Revolution. But the land de-
lenses we're almost totally neglected,
Though the government called for Is,
900 troops. the actual defense force
about the national capital consisted OF
but a few hundred militia. In conse-
quence, when the British finally
marched on the city in midsummer
they encountered little opposition.

MARKETING OF POULTRY
HOW PRODUCER AND MERCHANT
COULD COOPERATE AND SAVE.
BY II. L. Kempster, Associate Pro.
fessor Of Poultry Husbandry, Col
Iege Of Agriculture, Columbia.

Not much attention has been paid
by anyone in Missouri to the careful
organization of the poultry business.
Missouri has reached its present stat.
us in poultry production because OF
the natural conditions which favor it.
Poultry thriyes on welhdrained soils
where there is an abundance of clean
water, plenty of insects to supply ami
NAL food, a good supply of gravel and
grit and a long farm season.
From the standpoint of climate Mis-
souri, is very favorably adapted to
poultry production. It is far enough
south to escape the long, bleak win
which the production is greater than
p~aratively easy to raise.
Missouri is one of the few states in
north to miss the p~rotracted hot sum-
mers of the south. Under these con-
ditions chickens thrive and are COM
tiers of the north, and yet far enough
the demand. 1t is estimated by the

Theirs to Mold Lives.

Mothers and maidens, believe me-,
the whole course and character OF
your lovers lives is in your hands;
what you would have them be they
shall be, if you not only desire to
have them SO, but deserve to have
them so; for they are but mirrors in
which you will see yourselves imaged.
If you are frivolous, they will be so
also; If you have no understanding
of the scope of their duty, they also
will forget it; they will listen-they
can listen--to no other Interpretation
of it than that uttered from your lips.

N NIH E
From the Mississippi campaign came the bright
est reports of progress. The eyes of North and
South alike were upon Grant and Pemberton at
Vicksburg, the almost impregnable stronghold of
the Confederacy in the Mississippi valley. Farra-
gut had run past the batteries of New Orleans and
Porter was assisting Grant in the reduction Of the
works around Vicksburg. Newspapers daily print
ed glowing accounts Of the progress Of the siege,
but the city did not fall, Still 1t was from Grant
that the encouraging, heartening news Of the day
came. On May 20, the day before the date now
set for Memorial day, certain New York newspa-
pers printed dispatches stating that Vicksburg had
fallen; that Pemberton had escaped from the city
with the loss Of his artillery, This report, how
ever, was promptly denied.
On the same day authentic accounts and pic
lures of an engagement at Champions Hill, near
vicksburg, were received. About five o'clock in
the morning of May Is General Grant had re-
ceived information from two men who had been

unkind Words.

Unkind words do as much harm as
unkind deeds. Many a heart has been
stabbed to death by a few little words.
There Is a charity which consists in
Withholding words, in keeping back
harsh judgments, in abstaining from
speech, if to speak is to condemn.
Such charity hears the tale Of SANDER,
but does not repeat it; listens In ST.
lence, but forbears comment, then
locks the unpleasant secret within the
very depths Of the heart.

ton had the Vi IAe loAIliS"
lions and outworks about Vicksburg.
A day or two after May 80, 1853, re-
ports were received in the North OF
desperate hand to hand fighting out
side of Vicksburg and general assaults
on the works. Several Notifications
fell, but we're retaken by the Con-
fedeTates.
In the end of May the marine divi-
sions under Porter did some excellent
work at Haynes Bluffs under Grants
direction. News Of this was printed
shortly after the date which Is now
set apart for Memorial day.
There had been much criticism Of
the administration in the North and
the Union arms had come in for their
share Of popular opprobrium and the
news Of Grants successes in the
West was sorely needed.
1t heartened the troops serving in
other campaigns and 1t heartened
those at home.
1t was not long before what Is now
| Memorial day that New York, in 1868,
received news of the gallant charge
of the Eighth Pennsylvania cavalry
at Hazel Grove, where "Stonewall'
Jackson turned the Union right. In
fantry, artillery and cavalry lost heav'
lily in this engagement in Hooker's
Charlottesville campaign.

DAY OF UNION AND LIBERTY
This Is the Time the Nation Should
Remember the Debt It Owes to
the Veterans.

On May 80, 1862, there was no such
smiling land as we see this day. Then
the booming of the guns ~alternated
with a dead march four years long;
today we see an exultant republic,
running eagerly forward to meet its
fuller and more glorious destiny.
And whom shall we thank for this?
The venerable men who walk or ride
on Memorial day beneath their sacred
battle flags, and the men who sleep
today beneath the blue Of the sky
and the stars of the night. How great
their sacrificed Some gave literally
all they had-even their names. They
lie in unmarked trenches, their very
place Of sculpture forgotten. Their
names are lost, and they have gained
q name the which neither man nor
time can wrest from them-the name
of Patriot.

Grant Immediately recalled Sherman from jack
son and directed him to send one division with an
ammunition train to Join his own force. Within
an hour after sending this dispatch Steeie's diVl-
sion was under way. The Union forces moved
cautiously, with pickets thrown in advance, by sew
eral roads. Smiths division on the southernmost
road was the first to encounter the enemy's pick
cts. They we're driven in, as were the pickets con-
fronting Osterhaus on the middle road and Hovey
on the northernmost road. BY the time Grant
arrived Hovey's skirmish had assumed almost the
proportions Of a battle.

If You Are Artistic,

If you have artistic tendencies which
are crying for expression there Is no
better way to express yourself than in
your personal appearance and the ar
rangement and decoration of your
home. Make yourself and your home
works of art, You will find this much
more worth while than wasting a large
amount Of artistic vitality on second
