WHERE TO
""' SELL ECCS

OF all poultry problems 1t seems TO
me none perplexes people more thah
that of disposing of eggs to the best
nossible advantage. II is easy for
most folks to get eggs. That has Tor
the past few years been talked about
snd written about so much that most
folks understand upto-date methods

so we'll that their hens are Smelling
out the eggs at rate that beats any
thing we ever have seen in this coun-
try before.
But what shall we do with our eggs
after we get them? We want TO sell
them so to realize the most possible
from them. Now how shall we do II!
These are questions which make more
trouble on the farm that any other
connected with the poultry business
OF to-day.
The Farmers Time 10 Valuable Too.
On our farm we have tried about
every known plan from the peddler's
cart to turning into peddlers ourselves
going from door to door with our
poultry products; and I am satisfied
that, for us. shipping to reliable CON-
mission men is the most satisfactory
OF all. To make this h little palmer,
let me say that our farm is twelve
miles from town, over a billy road
which has not yet been improved &C.
cording to the present-day methods.
1t is a long juant to town and back.
We have to get up early, and, after
disposing Of our produce and making
the homeward trip, 1t is often dark,
especially in the time OF the year

to go on the run every minute at that.
Often we have not taken the time even
to get d bite to eat while In the city,
but waited until we were on the way
home and then taken lunch

money. and anything which enables
us to save It Is worth considering
Now, a mile and a half from our
place there is little village which
is the end OF a stage route. BY taxi
ing our eggs down there, we can
ship them every day. As we have at
the present time about five hundred
hens, 1t is plain that we get a lot OF
eggs, and these must be marketed

mission man!
Market at Home or Elsewhere?
But what about the relative prices
obtained for eggs marketed at home
and those which are shipped? Last
July when our home market offered
% cents dozen, those shipped to
New York brought 80 cents. There is
generally less difference during the
cold season. This is also the case
when the spring glut comes. 1t is true

BOYS FOLLOW KITE
FOR SEVEN MILES
Cambridge Youngsters Cause
Alarm When They Fail to
Return Home.

CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind, Sept. g.
Four young boys, Robert Whelan, Or
vile Bortsfeld, Howard Kelsey and
Howard Mueller. ranging in age from
to 10, unintentionally caused their
parents no little alarm when on Tues
day evening they failed to appear at
the supper hour. The boys, flying a
kite, started north at four o'clock,
and not unlike the story of the child
and the rainbow, they followed where
the kite led until rain compelled them
to seek shelter in a school house near
the German Baptist church, south
west of Hagerstown.
Realizing them the distance they
were from home, two Of the boys, Rob-
ert Whelan and Howard Kelsey, hav-
ing grandparents residing in the town,
thought best to push on before it grew
later, and reached the home of the
formers grandparents, Mr.. and Mrs.
John Retts, at 1880 o'clock, having
trudged a distance of seven miles.
Upon relating their story their par
ents were Immediately notified by
telephone ar to the whereabouts OF
the WANDERERS, much to the relief of
their parents, and the lads were re-
turned to Cambridge City Wednesday
morning on the Big Four train.

to make the carvings.
Mr. Edwards has disposed of many
of his pen drawings to magazines, al
though he does not make business OF
drawing for publication. His only pur-
pose is to entertain himself
Nathan Haywood Edwards, as his
parents chose to christen him, is q
man of average size, whose move
ments are quick and nervous. His hair
is long and black, and just beginning
to show gray in places. Occasionally
he runs his fingers drought the long
locks as he talks. The short dark
mustache adds note of distinction.
Large, friendly eyes twitch and twinkle
at the guest.
All this is Nath Edwards.

Call Nath Edwards
Philosopher of Old
Village of Economy

"You don't see them like that any
more" was Mathis brief comment as
he exhibited the sketch.
A lover of birds, Nath has paintings
of all species found in this section of
the country, painted from life. He
can talk for hours about their habits,
where and how they build their nests,
and they way they raise their young.
These studies are of unusual merit,
and form valuable collection, such as
is found only in exhaustive and costly
books on birds.
Flowers he has studied in the same
way, picturing the violet, the tulip,
and many of the wild blossoms.
Equal in interest is the collection
of wood carvings, which completely
fllls two rooms. These carvings,
which range from clock cases to easles
are all hand carved.
"1'l tell you, I'd have to be awfully
hungry to take $1,000 for that collec--
tion." concluded Nath in telling of a
young city chap who had been so bold
as to offer him $3.50 for a clock case,
| intricate in design, which Edwards
values at $500.

Mr.. Edwards. ut is a great pleasure

of being creator in his eyes and
voice as Nath spoke.
You don't have to go to Paris to
learn to paint or to care" he con,
tinued. "If it is in you it will come
out, you can not keep it back"
In this way he explained his apti-
tude at reproducing what he sees, al

sees them. If the stem of a flower

Who Is Nath Edwards?

Who is Nath Edwards?
Perhaps many Of the several thous-
and readers of the Palladium have
asked this question during the last
few weeks.
To every one in northwestern
Wayne county Nath Edwards, the
originator of the quaint philosophic
sayings that have been appearing I'M
der the caption, "Nath Edwards
Writes" he is just Nath, lover and stu
dent of birds, flowers, animals and
mankind. Nor is his fame confined
to his neighborhood or state alone.
Nath Edwards has been heard of in
many parts of the United States and
even abroad.
Corresponding for the Palladium is
only one of Edwards many sidelines.
Like real newspaperman he gathers
his news with system. In one Of the
rooms of his home is big roll-top
desk, surrounded with paintings and
carvings which Mr. Edwards has made
during the last few years. On his
desk where he does his work is a
! telephone, a calendar pad, which
! shows a record of reunions and events
due to happen in coming weeks in the
vicinity of Economy, and copies of
many daily papers.
Has Many Friends.
| The telephone operator at Econmy
and other residents are Nath Edwards
friends. When they have news they
telephone it to the man at the desk.
If a fire breaks out the ever watchful
operator Immediately notifies Mr..
Edwards by system of rings which
serves as code of signals. Thus

of Northern Wayne county.
But his philosophy, which is as
characteristic as that of Kin Hubbard
is drawn from observations of the
thousands of persons who have visited
his home, mile west of Economy
The Edwards brothers are great en-
tertainers. During the last sixteen
years, .Nath said, More than thirty
two thousand persons, by actual count
have visited his rooms and viewed
his collection of carvings and paint
ings.
81 like to have them come he said
II study each one and learn some
thing. You know, the mind is like a
sponge; it absorbs something of every
thing it comes in contact with, wheth
er it is good or bad. Now isn't that
true?"
Nath Edwards is not voluminous in
expressing his thoughts in words. His
philosophy is expressed in short, pug
nent sentences. But in water-color
pen sketches and carving he has re
corded events that would require vol
umes filled with words Every event
every flower, every bird, every person
that comes into his life is the subjec

Winston Spencer Churchill, first lord
Of the admiralty, announced today in
the house Of commons that there had
been no fighting and no casualties Of
any kind other than already officially
made public
This discredits a dispatch from New
Castle TO the effect that a wireless from

that the British fleet had engaged the
German warships in heavy battle off
South Doggar banks and that after a
general engagement the German fleet
was beaten back and moved in the d.

Each Nation Loses Ship.
The first lord said;
apart from the loss Of the small
British cruiser AmphiOn and the Ger
man mine layer Koenigin Luise. there
has been no other fighting and loss as
far as We are aware.
"On Wednesday a flotilla of torpedo
boat destroyers. patroling the upper
reaches Of the channel, found the koe-
nigin Luise laying mines A destroyer
pursued and sank her. About 80 Of her
crew. which probably numbered 40 or
$50 men, were humanely saved by the
crews Of the British destroyers-
The AmphiOn continued 10 scout

turn journey, was blown up by a mine.
