MANY EGGS
ARE BROKEN
IN TRANSIT
FIGURES Show That Two Dozen
Are Lost in Every Case
through Packing.

WASHINGTON, April 21.-Nearly
seven per cent OF all eggs packed IN
crates and shipped arrive at their
destination in bad order, according to
hgures just obtained by the food re-
search laboratory of the United States
department. of agriculture. This
means that on an average OF 1886
ergs out of every thirty dozen packed
and shipped arrive at the market
either as cracks, dents, leaSerS, or
mashen. These fgures were obtained
as q. result of the individual examina-
tjon of 5000 dozen eggs before and
after Shipment, and a. further general
study Of the condition OF IL car loads
or over 100000 dozen eggs shipped
from thirty-six packing houses IN the
.corhlbelt to ten different markets on
az. EASTERN coast. The results of this
study have been formulated In pre-

AS a result of this examination OF

every thirty dozen that arrived. In
other words, 6.94 per cent of all eggs
shipped in car lots are received with
damaged shells.
These figures, however, do not at
all represent the actual total damage
from breakage. Practically every
Ieaker and every mashed egg In
case lowers the value of several eggs
around of below it, because each
leaking egg soils a number of other
eggs and reduces their market value.
Further, 1T does not include any de-
tertoration or spoilage of whole eggs
on account of heat or faulty refr1ger-
alton.
How to Reduce Losses.
AS a result of the study, the De-
partment's specialists have issued the
following preliminary suggestions Tor
the consideration of the egg shipping
industry.
/. THE PACKAGE-Use only
sound, strong, new cases and new
lids. Never reuse hIIers and flats.
These are the cardboard partitions in
the cases. The specialists, find that
filters that have once been used are
very apt to have their ears, as the
little projections that keep the eggs
from the sides of the case are called,
bent or weakened SO that the egg
may hit the box when the box is
Jared or moved.
Q. PACKING THE EGGS-Use
more care in handling eggs to prevent
cracked shells; do not permit eggs
already cracked to enter the case, and
establish an inspection system to in
sure obedience in your handling
obedient labor can no longer be ac-
cepted in this day of scientific man
agement.'' In the final analysis 1t
is the manager who is most common
ly inehicient-not the labor.
8. STOWING-Handle the cases
them. See that the car is in good
repair, with drain pipes clear. Make
tight load. The Injunction about
the drain pipes is particularly import
ant to prevent leakage of water from
the refrigeration. An egg that mas
once gotten wet will spoil very rapid
Iy, because water viii wash on the
substance that tends to prevent bac-
terra or air entering the egg.
A. BRACING IN THE CAR-Take
no chances on the shifting of the load
In the car. Brace 1t, and If any brace
looks frail, make 1t stronger Never
put layer of cases on top OF the
load understanding it in some way.
Do not drive pals into the insulated
S. BUFFING AROUND THE CAS-
ES-If straw Is used to protect the
cases from the ends or sides OF the
car, 1t must be tamped into place BY
a force greater than would pc exert
ed by the shifting OF the load during
transit. If this is not done, further
compression of the straw viii occur.
and this will give added room for
shifting. This objection does not ap-.
ply to racks.
The reason for this caution is that
certain shippers relied on straw
around the edge Of the load to Pro
tect 1t from shock. The straw was
quickly compressed and gave the
cases much more room to shift, with
the result that the cases on the end
showed a high percentage OF broken
and smashed eggs.

Wilson's Steam Roller,

Washington, Feb. 27. = Repre-
sentatives Sherley and Palmer con-
ferred with President Wilson today on
organizing the administration fight in
the house to repeal the Panama tolls
exemption.
81 feel confident that the house will
sustain the president" said Represen-
tative Sherley afterward.
Palmer said it had not yet been de-
termined whether initial action would
be taken by the senate or the house,
but that he was sure the repeal would
be put through without difficulty.
Both Palmer and Sherley original
iy voted against the exemption, but
ut is practically certain now that they
will lead the fight as soon as the
president indicates in a letter to some
member of congress his reasons for
desiring the repeal.

HE WANTS TO SAVE
VICTIMS OF DRUGS

Albany, N. Y, Feb PA plea
for the relief of drug victims was
made by DR.. Charles A. Towns of New
York before Legislative hearing
here today on bills designed to re-
strict the sale of habit forming drugs,
principally cocaine and its deriva-
tives.
"The drug problem is one for the
police to cope with" DR.. Towns said.
"But drugs have worked greater
havoc in the upper world than in the
underworld, and here the havoc has
been wrought upon men and women
who are really worth while, whom it
is the duty of the medical profession,
the drug trade and everybody who
lays the slightest claim to decent hu-
manity, to conserve"
A feature of the proposed laws is a
provision designed to treat those who
obtain drugs in violation of the law
as victims of disease, and not crimi-
mails. This provision would give a
magistrate authority to commit habit
ual users of drugs to hospitals or
sanatoriums instead of to prison.

DIR. ELIOT DECLARES
FOR AN OPEN DOOR

New York, Feb. 27. = Further
restriction of immigration would ag-
gravate the scarcity of labor in the
rural districts and smaller cities in
the United States, says DR.. Charles
W. Eliot, president emeritus of Har-
ward, in letter received today by
the National liberal immigration
league, written in reply to the ques-
tion whether he still held a view to
that effect given expression on Jan
usry 10, 1911.
Dr. Eliot asserts that a scarcity
of labor in this country will prevail
as long as there is a sparseness of
population and enormous unused
natural resources, in the develop
ment of which both new capital and
labor will be needed.
mot a single argument for fur
ther restriction of immigration have
| yet seen," he adds, "which does
not violate the plainest principles of
sound American industrial develop
ment, or which does not propose to
abandon or MAIN the noble policy
of the United States, which has made
this country the hope of the multi.
tudes who cannot find freedom AM
comfort in their native lands"

Calumet Mine Inquiry

Hancock, Mich, Feb. 27.-After
the striking copper miners had con-
cluded today presentation of their
case before the congressional COM
mittee. and the public hearings had
been adjourned until Saturday, a dis
agreement arose over the selection of
a miner to accompany the committee
on a visit to the mines tomorrow.
Counsel for the mining companies
would not accept any of the men pro-
posed by the strikers in an executive
session of the committee. No agree
ment was reached and another meet
ing will be held
1t appeared to be the sense of the
committee that the proposed trip un-
derground would be abandoned un-
less the differences on this point
could be adjusted.

FOR COMMON SENSE
IN HEALTH LAWS

Chicago, Feb. 27.-Common sense
in public health administration was
emphasized by Assistant Surgeon
General w. C. Rucker of the federal
public health service in an address
tonight before the Chicago medical
society.
at is proper that we insist upon
abolishing the common drinking cup,
said he, "but when we insist that cups
furnished to the general public shall
be sterilized, the question assumes a
phase as farcical and ridiculous as
would be the individual doorknob.
Common sense in public health
administration comprehends the en-
ployment of we'll trained health Off
GERS at adequate salaries, sufficient
funds to administer the laws and spe-
ciic legislation having as its founda-
ton the basis of fact and practicable
Sty."
The American people, DIR. Rucker
said, are awakening to a wholly need
less sacrifice to preventable disease
and there was great danger that the
public health movement might be at
tended by fads and fanaticism.
Two general sets of faults in the
sanitary laws of the country, he said,
were a scatteration of ideas and load
ing down the health officer with more
power than he could possibly use.
Common sense enforcement of sani-
>tary laws, he declared, meant the
maximum of protection with the min
imum interference to trade.
Princeton, N. j., Feb. 27. Ed
win Grant Conklin, head of the de-
partment of biology of Princeton
university, in lecture today said the
time has come when society must take
account of the immense Importance
of heredity in the development of
man.
'Hitherto all the attention of So
ciety has been fixed on education and
environment" he said. thereafter
more attention must be given to i'm
provements of heredity or eugenics." )"
At the present rate of production,
Prof. Conklin said, the more highly
educated classes would be unknown
within a period of fifty years. He de-
cried the feminist movement of today
because it shows unmistakable signs
of women escaping the duty of moth
erhood, a sign which means degenera-
ton of the race in time, he said.

the average Mexican man on the street
or in the store showed no resentment
but only pleasure-that is he showed
his pleasure, secretly, to the Ameri-
can friends he could trust-in Amer
ica's action.
There is no one general in the world
who has had as much fighting during
the past three years as General Pan
cho Villa, rebel leader. Military at
taches Of the embassies and legations
in the Mexican capital constantly pay
tribute to Villas military genius. An
instance of Villas military cleverness
was described by European military
student, thus:
"Villa never overlooks an opportu-
nifty to take advantage of the enemy
All of his fighting, lately, has been
done by means of long, thin firing
line. He distributes his troops over Il
vast space. It's one of the cleverest
things he has ever done, for he knows
well that the federal soldiers are men
who have been forced into the army
and their generals must keep them
punched as they dare not let them get
too far away, for fear of desertion
Durango, Victoria and Ojinaga were
lost in this way, just because the
federals didn't dare to split their bod
les of troops into small bands"
Huerta has all of an Indians stoi-
cism. This is the way he spent the
eventful day on which came the news
that President Wilson had raised the
embargo on arms shipped to the reb-
els:
About 10 o'clock, after breakfast,
before word came of the raising of
the embargo, he went to the Cafe Co.
lon, near his home, merely stopping
off for drink, on his way to the
palace. OF course, in every cafe in
the capital there is always someone
ready to take drink with "the presi-
dent" At noon he was still there, with
secret service men waiting around at
various tables and standing on the
sidewalk outside the cafe doors.
At l o'clock came news that the
embargo had been raised. The Mexi-
can and American newspaper CORES
pondents began wild search for
Huerta. At last,-at o'clock, one Amer
lean photographer and an English
newspaper woman, seeing his car out
side the cafe, entered the place and
demanded to see the president. The
secret service men Immediately bun
died them both into an automobile
and took them to cells in the nearest
police station.
In the meantime other correspon-
dents had found Moheno, the minister
Of foreign relations, at his home, at
lunch.
! ~ don't know where Huerta is" he
said. "He leads very informal life.
Come to my Office at 5 o'clock"
/ There were dozen correspondents
there at the appointed hour. After a
long wait Moheno got into his car

him to the. palace, where the elusive
