lf the producer ofmarket eggs wants
a steady market and good prices for
| his eggs he must see that they are OF
high quality and meet the demands Of
the particular market he is shipping
| to.
The quality depends upon the care
exercised in the chickenhouse, keep
ing the poultry we'll fed and healthy,
and also upon the inspection of every
egg before it is packed. Catering to
particular market is merely a mat
ter OF selecting the color or kind of
eggs preferred by that market. The
following article is highly Instructive
The obligation of the producer Of
market eggs is to produce product
of good quality and to put it on the
market in fresh, neat and attrac-
tive manner. If he has performed
this function it is up to the distribu-
tor and the ultimate consumer to
maintain this quality intact. There
are great many kinds of eggs which
the average wholesale market recog-
nizes. representing much variety in
quality and appearance. Nothing but
strictly fresh eggs should, however. be
considered by the nearby producer
Eggs which have been held for some
time in anticipation of a higher price
decrease materially in quality and
such eggs are always sold at a loss.
The New York market recognizes
two different classes of eggs according
to color, namely: those which have a
white shell. New York markets al
ways give higher quotation for white
shelled eggs than for brown shelled
eggs. whereas in Boston the quotation
is higher for brown eggs and In some
OF the larger markets near large cen
ters of consumption there seems to
he no discrimination in favor of one

OF HORSES
 CONSIDERED IMPORTANT

(By Associated Press Correspondence)
 INSTERBERG, GERMANY, Feb. IF One of the best of the horse hospi- tals connected with the German army is that erected at this place which has handled nearly two thousand horses since November and whose average number of animals under treatment is over 800. During the past month S4 horses were operated on for se- we're wounds and 73 of these were dis charged as cured and returned to the service. Reckoning the average val ue of horse for army purposes at $375, these operations alone have saved the war office authorities $27,- 375. Many others were suffering from slight wounds which rendered them temporarily unfit for service and these also were returned cured to the army, while hundreds of sick horses have gone back to the front.

WAR FURNISHES NEW
 SCHEME FUR SWINDLERS

(By Associated Press Correspondence)
 LONDON, Feb. 17-Scotland warns the public against a new version of the old Spanish prisoner swlndle This time it is not a spaniard who has hidden a war chest of the Carl ists in an inaccessible mountain and appeals to someone to accept half the contents in return for furnishing him with bail money. In the new version of the swindle it is a Belgian. The Belgian, on the death of his master in the siege of Liege, fled with 2O,- 900 pounds in Bank of England notes. He is now in trouble in Spain, and will part with half of the notes to anyone who will help him out of the scrape with a little ready cash.
 A large number of these swlndline letters have been sent to England, and Scotland Yard men suspect the game is also being worked in the United States.

NARROW ESCAPE FR0M TRAIL
 SN0WSL|DE

While Sergeant Douglas and Pri- vate Mcfarland were engaged in mak. ing an inspection of the telegraph lines on the government trail, they overlook a man with horse and sled enroute to a little place called Ruby. three miles south of Beaver Dam.
 It was just at dusk. Douglas and Mcfarland went forward to help the man, who was having some trouble with his outfit. A moment later the snow, with a roar started down the mountain side above the trail and instantly swept both their sleds hundred feet or more below the trail. The men escaped a similar fate by the narrowest kind of a margin.
 The horses were recovered appar- ently uninjured, the men cutting the harness to extricate the animals. At that it was a job requiring the hardest kind of work and patience. exhausting the men completely and forcing them to take some rest before they proceeded further. They later got the sleds out of the slide.
 This Is one of the incidents of line work on the Northern telegraph lines that prove the work of the signal corps boys is mixed with much real danger and also that occasional op. portunities arise for helping others. The big trail is not a garden pathway of roses by any means.

DIPLOMA SYBOLIz|NG PEACEFUL OPERATION

CBy Associated Press Correspondence)
 LIEPSIC, Feb. 1.-The Internation- al Exposition of the book trade will be commemorated by diploma sym bolizing how the peaceful co-opera- tion of the nations there was dis turbed by the outbreak of the war. Prof. Max Klinger, one of the best known of German artists has etched it. In the background of the etch- ing one sees the broad stairway of the exposition flanked by pillars, with the huge monument Of the battle of Leipsic towering up behind them. In the foreground are two female fig ures embracing each other; these rep resent Germany and Austria. Italy, another female figure, stands some what apart in a meditative mood. On the other side of the picture another group represents England, France and Russia, behind which are soldiers of these countries with drawn swords. Between the two groups is the last halflength figure of fury rising out
 
 of the earth. with clenched fist, its head shadowed with clouds.

.BUCKWHEAT FUR HUMANS
 SAYS GERMAN "PROF. "

(By Associated Press Correspondence)
 BERLIN, Feb. 17-Professor KubI of Kiel, after a series of scientific ex- periments, has reached a conclusion that will be of deep interest to Amer. ican devotees of griddle cakes and syrup-namely, that buckwheat can be eaten by humans, It is a some what curious fact that in Germany. except in some parts of south Ger. many, this grain is exclusively used as feed for stock. The professor finds, however, that mixture of 20 per cent of buckwheat flour with wheat flour gives "an elastic, tough dough, which raises we'll with yeast and furnishes a we'll tasting bread. "
 In view of this, and also the fact that buckwheat can be grown on land fit for nothing else, the professor rec ommends that it be used to eke out the wheat supply.

Two bath tubs found under the ruins of another house were installed and in addition a large swiming basin was built, with connection to a windmill pump about two miles distant.
 But there is one drawback to our fine establishment" he says, "the shells of the enemy continually roar and explode arond it. But we have grown so bold that we do not let this check our impulse to get clean; we must have our pleasure in these tubs even though the French shells crash and explode around us. The estab- lishment was opened several weeks ago, and since then 1t has been used to it's utmost capacity.

GERMANS TAKING GO ] ] CARE
 PROPERTY
(By Associated Press Correspondence)

(By Associated Press Correspondence) BERLIN, Feb. 17-An Associated Press correspondent who has visited recently dozen or more French villas and chateaux which now serve as staff headquarters for various corps or di- visions of the German forces found that reports of theft and destruction of property in these French homes were not true. In all of these places. without exception, the carved wood work, Oriental rugs, marbles and pie lures testifying to the wealth and taste of the recent owners were not only still in place, but were being cared for as scrupulously as if the owners were present. No burning cigars or cigar cites, carelessly laid, had scorched the polished tables or burned the, cover. ings and no stain of muddy boots dis 'figured the rugs. So thorough is the attention to these details in some of the headquarters, that the most par ticular housewife could have run a suspicious finger over any article in the place without finding a speck of dust.
 The most recent visit which the cor respondent paid to one of these villas was to that occupied by Crown Prince Rupprecht, Commanded-in-ch of the Bavarian army. Notwithstanding that the Bavarian court is one of the most ceremonious in Europe, the Crown Prince was found to be a most Demo cratic individual, inviting the corre- spondent to dine with him. He talked English iuently, with hardly a sus- picion of a foreign accent, and he spoke freely of the campaign and the situation, proud of what the Bavarlans had accomplished and what the fu- ture might bring.
 Another of the guests at headquart- CTS was Prof. Otto c. T. Kiiani, of New York, who, for several years. was professor of clinical surgery at Colum- bia University and who has charge of the German field hospital at Cambrai.
 Dr. Kiliani recounted, to the great amusement of the Grown Prince, the adventure of a Bavarian soldier. Dur ing the night the trench occupied by this soldier was evacuated for some reason, but he, fast asleep in one of the bombproof dugouts, was over looked. He awoke in the morning to find himself alone and six Englishmen approaching the trench. Dr. KiIiani himself born Munich man, related the soldiers account in the broadest Bavarian dialect.
 "l made up my mind right off that the only thing possible was a strong counter7offensive," said the soldier. He carried out this "counteroffen- siye," to such good purpose that he killed two of the English patrol, cap tured two and forced the other pair to withdraw,
