Seattle too had a short visit from
us, and that city was very much
alive with flags, decorations, confetti,
it being the week of their annual
Iilikum Potlatch.
The boat trip from Seattle to Van
couver was also much enjoyed, and
at present we are located at
Hotel Dunsmuir. Leave here tomor-
row and journey homeward via the
Canadian Pacific through the Cana
dian National Park, and it is the
good old Hawkeye state that is go
ing to look mighty good in couple
of weeks. l am glad we have the
west to go sightseeing in, but north
eastern Iowa is truly the best place
so far.

How to Preserve Eggs.

Farm and Fireside, the national
farm paper published at Springfield,
Ohio, contains in it's current issue
a practical article showing how the
housewife can preserve eggs from
spring to winter. The two best meth
DDS of preserving eggs are with wat
Fireside says that it has thoroughly
tested both of these methods and can
recommend them. A series of inter
esting German experiments were
published in the U. s. Consular Re-
ports some years ago that clear up
many uncertainties in the practice of
preserving eggs. Four hundred eggs
were kept from July 1st to February
2Sth (S months by twenty different
methods. AS reported by George c.
Watson these were the results

KANSAS CITY MARKETS.
Stock Cattle Declined 25 to 81
Gents Last Week.

Kansas City Stock Yards, July 27,
1914.-IStock cattle declined 25 TO
35 cents last week, and good many
fairly decent cattle sold under 81
at the close of the week. Owners
did not make very good clearance,
and about 1000 cattle were carried
over to this week. Receipts today
are $4,000 head, which insures a
pretty good supply of country
kinds of cattle for this week. Prices
are steady today, and there is a
slightly better feeling than at the
close of last week. The adverse fea-
lures in the stocker market are mo-
ney stringency and lack of faith in
the corn outcome. Country banks will
have plenty of money as soon as
the wheat moves, and one more good
rain over the corn area would
strengthen confidence on the second
point In the meantime bargain
rates are effective on stock cattle,
sales ranging from $625 to $7.75.
In feshy feeders it is another mat
ter, sales of that class having been
made during the past week to llli-
nois and Iowa men, chiefly, at high
est prices paid for some time,
$7.75 to $3.50. This is the custom
airy early fall feeding trade setting
in, few weeks later than usual this
year. Total shipments to the coun-
try last week aggregated 10000
head, as compared with 900 same
week last year. A year ago drouth
cattle were beginning to run, but
there are few parched districts this
year. Volume of the fall supply Of
stockers and feeders from the range
country is subject to prices. Feed of
all kinds is PLENTIFUL and owners
are prepared TO fatten their cattle
at home in many cases, if prices at
the market are not attractive. The
supply or the ranges is probably
larger IAN it was a year ago as
cattl. ere held back then, account
OF y 'er supply at the markets
fro. XSpsas, Missouri, and other
dry tcls. 1t would seem that
ca, e bought at current rates, es-
pee l4y stock cattle, would turn out
De well worth the money. Prime
issOuri fat cattle sold at 1915 to
.. here today, highest prices
ID this year and the highest on
rec, 1 for July.

The Burglar Alarm.

her dressing-case.

Then-She pinched the baby.
wow! shrieked the outraged
infant.
Like a flash the buglar wheeled,
and, as fast as his webbing knees
would permit, he rushed from the
room Not until he had run many
blocks was he able to conquer his
panic.
That noise sure gets my goat, he
muttered, pulling up with foolish
grin upon his face. / always expect

year will no doubt find that the BOYS
have come into possession of a great
deal of knowledge, which they can
not claim credit for having impart-
ed to them.
1t should not surprise the profess
sors, if some of the boys will deem
further study of German and French
quite superfluous. They are eager
ly awaiting an opportunity to demon
Istrate their newly acquired profci-
ency in the art of conversation in
French as well as German.
The little French book, which
"Caddy" purchased in Kristiania
was in constant circulation until
Paris was reached. Judging by the
ease with which the boys got on
with the police, the omnibus conduc,
tors and mattresses, French must be
a very simple language to learn To
speak.
DuI lHe poHelllo VI lHe Trip were
by no means its only attraction
There is always a strange pleasure
in visiting foreign lands and strange
cities, especially when these are of
the largest and most renowned.
When the party had done" Lon
don and boarded the train for South
Hampton from whence the boat was
to sail at noon July Is, all felt that
though the trip throughout Europe
had been somewhat hurried, never
theless it may be looked upon as
the browning feature of the entire
tour.

When VIII Congress Adjourn.

There is serious talk to the eff
feet that the Senate may continue
it's work almost up to the day of
election, and few people even pre-
dict that Congress will be in session
until December. With the antitrust
legislation still in the foreground,
the fight unsettled as to just who
will be members of the Federal
Reserve Board, and the Columbia
and Nicaragua treaties promising a
splendid row, there is but one con-
clusion. Either the administration
plan must be cut and these matters
passed over to the regular session
in December, or the lawmakers will
be wrangling until late in the fall.
Bull Fighting and Base Ball.
General Funston put a stop to
the bull fighting at Vera Cruz and
declared that lit does not give the
bull fair chance" Captain Leon
ard, U. S. NJ, who has just return
ed from Vera Cruz, says that on the
corner lots the boys are now play
ing the game of base ball, and there
is feverish anxiety for that game
among the MeXicans. Who knows
but what the great American game
VIII yet become a national sport
and civilizer in Mexico.

Over thirty-three per cent of all
the people in the United States who
work for living are engaged in
Agriculture, forestry and animal

are engaged in manufacturing and
